Roleplay Hooks
- Good Girl Gone Bad: She's rebelling from the constraints of her upbringing, and she's going all out. Her drinking's heavy, her drugs are hard, her heels are high, her skirts are short, her company is bad, her record is long.
- Destitute: She used up all her ready cash on her long trip out to Cali, and her arrest record means she's conventionally unemployable. Places to crash & sketchy moneymaking opportunities are highly appreciated. So are people who pick up hitchhikers.
- Theology: Thanks to a childhood spent in what could be considered a Pentecostal cult, she knows way more Christian scripture than she could ever hope to forget.
- Fame: She's not famous. Yet. Can you help with that?

Roleplay Hooks (Supernatural)
- Faerie Blood: She's kinain, though she's completely unaware of it due to the circumstances of her upbringing.
- Kin: Unlike her fae heritage, she knows she's kin to the Children of Gaia - she just doesn't want to be.

Background
Shyla was born into a large, devout family in Missouri, where her parents had moved after the spiritual awakening that had led her father to become an extremist Pentecostal pastor. Her upbringing in that tradition was strict, and abusive, and she never learned of her supernatural heritage due to her parents' conviction that humanity's only salvation lay in dedicated worship of God.
Her rebellious teenager phase hit hard, though it started small - smoking cigarettes with the girls her mother told her to stay away from, trying out for the cheer squad in secret. One act of rebellion led to another, and soon her grades were slipping and she was starting to get into real trouble. Her parents kicked her out as soon as the tattoos and the DUIs started, and from there, it was only a short fall.
Minimum wage jobs in small-town Missouri kept her afloat for a while, but the lure of adventure and fame out west was impossible to resist. She hitchhiked, bargained, conned, and stole her way slowly out to California, picking up a long but petty arrest record before finally arriving in Prospect, dead broke and with a criminal history that makes her conventionally unemployable.
