Rose is, true to her role, a very shy individual. She rarely ever talks, especially since the incident, and now when she finally does talk, itās very soft spoken and often times people have a very difficult time hearing her. Thereās really nothing she can do about it, itās just the way she is. To go along with it sheās extremely anxious, and gets almost over the top nervous when something goes wrong, no matter how small.
Rose tends to get herself in trouble a lot, and itās always on accident. She never means to do anything wrong, sheās only trying her best, but for some reason whenever she tries she tends to always mess it up. The one thing she can always get right though is being able to choose her friends wisely. Even though the six of them had come together almost, it seemed, at random, she knew they would have eventually found eachother.
Rose is extremely sensitive to personal space, so she can always tell when someone needs space or is okay to talk to. Although, she is very shy, so when someone is need of a good talk, most of the time she canāt help. She tries to talk as much and as loud as she can, but it was as if she was barely speaking above a whisper. Sometimes people even had to lean close to her mouth in order to hear what she was saying. Since she got pulled out of the dumps though, sheās slowly been able to speak up more and to really say what sheās feeling.
Sheās really been pulling her weight in order to help, but sometimes things donāt exactly go as planned. Sheās kind of a clutz sometimes, well, all of the time. Everytime she tries to do something to help, she trips, or she makes someone else trip, or she drops something, or basically something just ends up going wrong. She tries to help, she really does, but most of the time it just doesnāt work out in her favorā¦

Flaws"Everybody has flaws, thatās what makes us human. How you embrace your flaws determines who you will be, though."
|| Extremely Shy || As stated in an above category, Rose is one of the shiest human beings on the planet. She was mute for a short period of time, and now she barely talks. In her head sheās a bright, cheery, 16 year old girl, but all that other people see is this tiny little thing that barely ever talks.

Fears[i]"Our fears and weaknesses are what define the other parts of our lives. Whether itās staying away from firefighting because youāre scared of flame, or becoming a social worker because you have a weakness for troubled children. It all defines who you are."

Things were good back then. Nothing was going wrong, she lived in a nice house, it was perfect. She lived with her mother and little brother in a medium sized house off of sunset road, and she got to visit her dad at least twice a week. She knew he really wasnāt thrilled with the custody arrangement, but she had no idea how upset he was until July 24th, 2012. They were eating a nice home cooked dinner at the kitchen table, when suddenly he burst through the door with a shotgun aimed right at her motherās forehead. Her brother started screaming and Rose shrieked at him to put it down as she held her brother behind her. Her father yelled that it wasnāt fair and he was a good father so he should get to see his kids more often. The threats of earthquakes and tsunamiās were just more reasons he needed to see them. They were in a dangerous place, and he said if they were going to die anyway, then they would die at his hands, and not as the hands of natural disasters. Her mother tried to negotiate with him but he wasnāt hearing any of it, so with one final tear filled look, he blew her motherās head off and aimed the gun at Rose. She cried and begged for her father to let her go but he screamed that if he couldnāt have them then no one could. He shot the gun and the bullet went straight through Roseās abdomen, and into her little brotherās head that had been hiding behind her, killing him instantly. She was hospitalized for two months, and when she got out, she was merely a shadow of herself.
None of her foster families worked out, so without a second glance she ran and began living in a little alleyway with a dryer pipe for heat. She lost around twenty pounds from lack of food and nutrients, and she became mute as well. It wasnāt until she had been living on the streets for about another month that her savior finally came and rescued her from the dumps. Now, among her new sort of family, sheās beginning to get comfortable again. But how can she trust anyone if they might just blow her head off?
