y.o.
All ethnicities
Single mother and scam artist. She is witty, fast-thinking, and skeptical of others. She holds the belief that she knows what’s best and only she’s capable of looking out for herself. She has a pessimistic outlook on most things, aside from the well-being of her daughter, Ophelia. A big part of Eva’s identity is being a mother to Ophelia, whom she also considers to be her best friend. The responsibility she feels for Ophelia is only heightened by her rare genetic blood disorder.

All ethnicities
Upper middle class businessman, fueled by a desire to retire by 50 and live luxuriously. He was recently caught in a debit card scam that drained $2,650 from his checking account. He went to great lengths to uncover the culprit, which has led him directly to Eva. He’s figured out her name, got a photo identification of her, and even has recently found out her place of residence. He’s hellbent on finding and confronting her, not sure of what he’ll do when he does.

She has been working for Alexion Pharmaceuticals since it was founded in 1992, and has worked her way up the corporate ladder as a shrewd businesswoman. She comes from a lower class upbringing, and has worked her way into great wealth. Her husband is also a businessman, and they ignore the fact that their marriage is failing. Neither of them are around enough in their daughter’s life, and Judith is too impatient and busy with her work life to put being a mother first.

Highly intelligent and bored. Rich girl who is immune to the consequences of her actions. Accustomed to her father, an obscenely wealthy businessman of low ethical conduct, constantly bailing her out, she has been committing low-level crimes for years. Otherwise, he isn’t present in her life. She has been recently developing a habit for cocaine use that she failed to keep a secret from her mother, Judith.

They’ve been staying in his trailer park (or apartment complex) for the past 2 years, and he has recently lowered their rent because he pities Eva and the difficult financial situation she is in. But he has recently lost this soft spot for Eva when she stopped paying any rent for the past three months, as he no longer believes her when she promises to get him his money.

y.o.
Latino / Hispanic
She’s been a maid at the mansion that Judith and Jacqueline reside in long before they moved in. She knows the mansion better than anyone, and she even has her own private room in the attic. She also cooks for Judith’s family, and takes great pride in being a caretaker of the house. She puts up with a lot of disrespect from Judith and Jacqueline, but definitely isn’t anyone’s doormat.
