Andy LaVaughn Choi
PLAY BY: Jhené Aiko
♦ THE BASICS ♦
AGE: 22
GENDER: Female
ORIENTATION: Bisexual
POSITION: Singer/Songwriter♦ THE CHARACTER ♦
HEIGHT: 5'3"
HAIR COLOR: Black
EYE COLOR: Brown
MISC: Andy has a third eye tattoo on her left inner wrist. It perfectly matches her general aesthetic which involves boho, hippie, and androgynous fashions. She takes her guitar around with her sometimes but not always. Her real hair length is lobbed off at the shoulders but she has been known to wear extensions when she wants to feel luxurious. She is mixed race: half black and half Asian.
PERSONALITY: Andy would describe herself as an optimist. She's been through a lot and she believes that experiencing adversity can either make a person hard and cold, or compassionate and open. She actively works towards the latter. She likes to lay around in the sun, or stay in bed and work on a song all day. She likes to put on her makeup and not even leave the house once. She's childish, stunted even, and has yet to move on from a lot of pain from her past, even though she convinces herself that she's let it all go. Her depression has been known to spring up on her and it makes her wonder if she really is the happy optimist she sees herself as. Even in those times of hardship she battles her sorrow with comedy and is quick to crack a joke even if it may not seem appropriate at the time. She deals with being hyper-aware of how people view her and it is her utmost priority that she be seen as a good person and act in a way that supports that stance. While a very friendly and altruistic person, Andy is still quite guarded emotionally and may become unhappy if someone tries to dig deeper than she feels comfortable with. Andy is a friend to all and close to almost no one but herself, and sometimes she prefers to keep it that way.
SECRET(S): Andy does not want anyone to know that she is depressed and doubts herself often, though she may not be the best at controlling herself in times of stress.♦ THE HISTORY ♦
Andy was a singer since before she could even remember. She grew up very shy and emotionally stunted because of her neglectful upbringing and only managed to comfort herself with little songs she would make up in her head, and this started a positive connection to singing and music that would never leave her. She was eventually seized by
child services after her parents broke out into a violent fight and she was placed in several group homes until she eventually landed in an orphanage. She believes she could have very easily been hardened by her experiences at these places. The care givers were not always the most merciful, and people were quick to remind you of how you had no family whether or not they meant to. However, simply being around other kids and developing normal social behavior helped her overcome her loneliness and equipped her with an attitude that could help her take on the world.
At 18 she got spit out of the system and back into the real world. At first she was really scared, unsure of what move to make next. She thought about maybe going to college, as she had done okay in high school, but eventually decided she didn't need a college degree to write songs. Her future was uncertain but Andy was determined to take her life into her own hands for once. She began busking at Saturday markets and street corners, and playing at open mics.
Andy's skill at the guitar has greatly improved within the last year and her voice has always been good and unique, with a light and breathy quality while still being passionate and earthy. She is hopeful that as she begins to play more small gigs at bars and local venues that her talent will be recognized and that she will one day have a huge fan base. For now she can only dream about where her life will take her.♦ THE PLAYER ♦
