Department
Athletics
Specialty
Marissa Nivans has showed prowess in a variety of sports and physical activities, but there's nobody as strong as Riss when it comes to the game of basketball. Basketball combines speed, strength, and accuracy into one sport, and the college student shows all three of these qualities while she plays on the court. Riss has led practically all her previous teams to victories in either national or international championships. She currently holds the female record for the most successful free throws in one minute, and is already in the basketball hall of fame at the young age of twenty-one.

Weaknesses/Fears
Judging from her muscular build, one would assume that Riss has no vulnerabilities or fears. This, however, is untrue, as she is merely human like everyone else. For one thing, Riss really shows no sense of sensitivity. She's not a bad person, she just isn't the right one to go to when you're feeling distressed, worried, or emotionally traumatized. In other words, she'll only add fuel to the fire. She isn't very good with children, as she intimidates most of them.
As for fears, Marissa has a tremendous fear of strangers, enemies, and even friends finding out about her deepest, darkest secrets. She doesn't want ANYONE crawling into her private emotional barrier, and will become pugnacious if anyone teases her about her insecurities. Then again, she keeps her vulnerable side considerably well-protected, so it's very unlikely this fear could occur.

Canvas-Imogen Heap
Two songs that clearly demonstrate how Riss feels inside, despite the "I hate everyone, including you" stereotype that she is branded.
