Coral/Hooks

• Prospect University: Against her better judgment, Mellie convinced her to give this college thing a try. The parties are the best part and for the most part, the only thing that really catches her interest there. You may have seen her falling asleep during class, doodling, or doing anything but paying attention the lecture at hand.
• Drifter: Coral's only true home is the road. She may stay in an area for a few days, a few weeks, or a few months but eventually she's always on the road again and going wherever the wind takes her. Communes, couch surfing, run down motels. slumming it on the streets; all a way of life the last several years. Interestingly enough this is her second stop in Prospect; a rarity for her to intentionally go to the same place more than once. Maybe you knew her from her first stop in town? Maybe you've crossed paths with her at a different point in time in a different area of the continental United States?
• Criminal Underworld: How does one survive as a drifter for years without having a steady source of legal income? You get your hands dirty. Despite owing no allegiance to any specific criminal organization or gang she's developed a reputation for herself in this segment of society. Theft, schemes, clever uses of sleight of hand (uses for which she's very versatile with goods and contraband to avoid detection, security systems, she's lent all of these services (and possibly more) to get the money she needed to see another day. Throughout the years she's broken about even having been cheated out of some big paydays and squandering other hauls on alcohol, weed, and other pursuits. She doesn't need to do these things anymore to survive, but it's like riding a bike... given the right circumstances, who knows?
• The Occult: Something of great interest to her, for more reasons than one. She has some experience in fortune telling (whether or not she manipulated the results or even read them correctly to people on the street is a bit of a mixed bag) but she knows enough to not be the huckster she may appear to someone (who's wise) witnessing a scheme. If you're Awakened, all the better.
• Social Butterfly: She fits in well at parties and gatherings, appearing to find it easy to mingle in such settings. Having dealt with so many different types of people and having met so many different people over the years. Where you at the kegger last week? What about that concert from a month ago?
