Name: Eliza Whittaker
Age: 19
Gender: Female
Appearance: Eliza is a somewhat pale girl of average build and height. She's never been particularly attractive, but her nerdiness makes her even less appealing to most guys. Her natural red hair is cut short with the exception of a long strand in the back which is held somewhat tame with a thin band. She has sparkling, happy blue eyes and her incisor teeth came in crooked so they look almost like fangs. She is usually seen wearing jeans, a comic book t-shirt and red canvas shoes but when she dresses up she'll wear a white button-down shirt, black women's sport jacket, knee length black skirt, black socks and shoes, and a green and silver Slytherin tie from the Harry Potter book series.

This nerdiness took her so far that she even had her hair cut to look like that of a character from the Final Fantasy VII video game. While she is friendly towards strangers she doesn't really make friends well, most people being so judgmental about her appearance that they don't even try to get to know her. The few friends she does have care as much for nerdy things as she does and they often have sleep-overs to watch cartoon series or comic book movies. She's interested in photography, art, and computers and is looking for a degree in graphic design.
Courses: Psychology
Philosophy

History: Eliza went to a crappy public school and had a hard time fitting in because she wasn't interested in being popular or pretty. While in the public school she went through a goth phase thinking she could fit in there but the atmosphere was too depressing and she finally just decided to be a nerd. She succeeded in all of her classes until they started getting repetitive. At that point she quit doing her homework because it was so easy and boring. Her grades started slipping and with the abuses from other students who made fun of her her parents finally decided to pull her from the school and teach her from home. She maintained a few friends from school and the small group was pretty much inseparable. Until they graduated. A couple went off to college straight from high school, one went directly into the work force and one went to the Air Force. Eliza took a year off of school before applying anywhere. She made money as a video game tester and comic book artist, then finally applied to a few universities, Miskatonic being one. While she got accepted into almost all of the colleges, she picked Miskatonic University because it was close to home. She and her friends still hang out whenever they have free time.
