"'GO TO HELL, LOSER!'"

Character Description
Mariana Lopez is a 15-year-old, Hispanic student attending Bullworth Academy. She has a sun-kissed complexion, along with luscious black hair, which pairs nicely with her light brown color of eyes.

When on campus, Mariana dawns in her white, Bullworth Academy t-shirt and some jeans, and black sneakers. When out of school, she tends to wear casual clothing which can vary from time to time.

Character Backstory
Mariana was born in Monterrey as the youngest of 3 children. Growing up with a verbally and physically abusive mother, with no father figure in her home, she fell into a state of depression at a young age. She was not a very wealthy child, usually being teased in school as a result of this. Mari soon had enough of the constant torment both in school and at home and decided to take matters into her own hands. She began learning self-defense, and shortly after, she started taking out her anger on other pupils. Mari was slowly becoming more and more violent and aggressive towards others and was expelled from her old public school. Due to her being expelled, her mother sent her away to live her aunt and uncle in America, specifically, New England. Here, she was enrolled in a new private school, where she began learning about the English language. She quickly made a name for herself in her new school, bullying and tormenting others to get her own way. One night, however, Mari was involved in a large brawl, which ended in serious, almost fatal injuries. Because of this, her local law enforcement got involved, and Mari was apprehended and arrested. Being charged for assault with a deadly weapon, her aunt and uncle quickly scrounged up enough money to send her to Bullworth Academy, where she arrived at the start of her freshman year.

Characteristics
Mari is known as a hot-headed and short-tempered girl who is easily angered, and will not hesitate to throw hands in order to defend herself or her friends. She takes pleasure and pride in tormenting those smaller than her and can be very brutal at times. She often speaks in broken English and yells constantly to mimic Russell, however, can speak properly whenever she pleases.
