Under Kennedy's exterior, she has a soft and tender heart for those who matter to her, and she becomes protective of those who are close to her. If she had a friend in need, she would drop what she was doing and run to help, even if was against the law and get her in trouble. Kennedy stays true to her morals and the things that she loves to do. She rarely will back down from a challenge and loves being one of the boys and being rowdy. Kennedy came from a humble and stable family, and the want of money was something she stays away from, as long as she is about to be independent she is set for life. Money means nothing to her, and she cannot be bought with it. If you give her anything on wheels and is fast, then you've won her heart. She isn't afraid to speak her mind, and tell people how she feels, though sometimes her mouth gets the better of her. Kennedy acts too proud for her own good at times, and she would need to be brought back into reality. After her father's death, Kennedy closed off parts of her heart, and became someone different. She hides some of her feelings from people, and makes it a challenge to get to know her. Kennedy attended the college that her mother went to, but instead of using her degree for something big, she used it for her true passion. Racing cars. And she doesn't regret a single moment. Before her father died, he taught her to live with no regrets, because there is no life full of them.
THE APPEARANCE
Kennedy stands at five foot nine, and has a slender and athletic build. Her brown hair is dark, with a few streaks of golden blonde in it, and her eyes are the color of dark sapphires or violet. She would feel more comfortable in ripped jeans, and a oil stained rock concert shirt than a nice dress at a cocktail party. That's just the world she was raised in, nothing fancy, just laid back and comfortable. Kennedy likes to treat her body like a work of art. She has at least five tattoos on her body, and is thinking about getting more. Each of her tattoos has a story behind it, and she'll tell you that. On her collar bone, she has a set of three birds in flight, one for each member of her family that were close to her heart. Around her wrist is a tattoo that reads " Life with no Regrets," and it's the motto that her father lived by. One her inner upper arm, is a stream of dandelion fuzz to always remember to make wishes for better things. Her most recent tattoo is the marines motto for her brother on her back shoulder. You are more likely to find Kennedy wearing her dad's Guns N Roses concert shirt and ripped jeans around the garage with a grease stain here and there.

History:
Kennedy Ryan wasn't born to the life of fast cars and racing down with the wind blowing against your skin. That life would come into her life, and change her forever. Her father, Alexander, was a strong male figure in this young girl's life, and he instilled the importance of family, staying true to who you are, and live with no regrets. He wasn't a gambling man, but he lived for the moment, and told his two children to always take your dreams and run with them. Alexander was born with oil in his veins, and made his living repairing cars as he owned a auto repair shop on the east side of LA. He worked hard to provide the best life for Kennedy and Tobias. The second strong male role model in Kennedy's life was her brother Tobias, but he was lovingly called T by Kennedy. He is a good six years older than Kennedy, so he was the one who toughened Kennedy up. Kennedy's mom, Gwen, was an influence in her life to be a lady and to also be strong and not take shit from anyone. When Kennedy was first born, the Ryan family lived in a small two bedroom apartment above the garage that her father owned, but the coming of a newborn meant finding a new home to contain the now family of four. So the Ryan family uprooted to a new part of town, Alexander bought a bigger garage where business was good, and bought a bigger home for his family. Life was turning out to be good for the Ryan's.
Kennedy looked up to her father, and she loved to sneak down to the garage after breakfast, and watch her father at work. Sliding under the cars, hearing the clanging of parts, and the old jukebox playing old 80's jams. When Kennedy was old enough, her father permitted her to come into the garage to learn the trade, and that is where it all began. For her sixteenth birthday, her parents presented her with a classic 66' mustang, and it was in need of desperate repair. To some girls, they would think their parents had lost their ever living minds, but Kennedy saw this as a challenge and a project. With her father's help, the two would work on it bit by bit when she had the chance, and this memory became engraved in her mind. Boys wasn't one of those big deals to Kennedy, meaning she wasn't a boy crazed girl like her friends, but there were a few boys who caught her eyes. She swore at times they only saw her as one of the guys and were afraid to ask her out. Maybe she was intimidating to them, but this is who she was. She wasn't wanting to be one of those pretty girls who cared about her hair and make up constantly. It would have to take the right guy to make her feel that way. The guy that made her want to shoot for the moon, and have that kiss that shook the ground. Yeah, that kind of guy. There were a few, but they never lasted long.
When Kennedy entered college, and moved out of her parents home into a one bedroom apartment, that's when she really became more involved into the world of racing. She would race her friend's spare cars, and she would win enough money to where she was able to buy her own racer and make it her own. She eventually met one guy who she fell head over heels for. His name was Jack O'Connor, and he was a different from her in temperament, but they both loved cars. They would fight, but then would find a crazy reason why they should stay together. He broke her out of her first bar fight, he held her close when she was needing a shoulder to cry on. Kennedy then met his brother Brian, and Dominic, and they all became family. Soon after becoming part of the group, Kennedy became a skilled driver, and she became something of a tech junkie. She was able to hack into high tech computer systems. Kennedy and Jack were nearly inseparable while they dated as she continued to race, and earned a name for herself. Four years later, she graduated college, she and Jack were still dating, and things looked to be going great. The day after Kennedy graduated, she and her father were driving home after going to get some car parts, and Kennedy's world changed in an instant. Gun shots rang out, and when she looked over at her father she found him dead. He was killed in cold blood by a group of policemen, and Kennedy couldn't understand why. Her father was a beloved member of the community, so why would someone want him dead!? After that day, almost everything around Kennedy had changed. Two years after her father's death, her mother announced she was moving to Europe with her new husband, and in that same time Tobias joined the Marines to make a better life for himself. Jack and Kennedy also broke up, but ended it on good terms and to this day still remain close. Kennedy now runs her father's shop, along with specializing in customized street racing cars as well, and still stays loyal to the Torreto clan. Four years after her father's death, Kennedy may have been ruffed up a little, but she never forgot to stay true to who she is. A Ryan, now and forever.

THE ROLEPLAY SAMPLE
Emma sat at her desk and sighed softly. Recording all these grades could be mind numbing, and mundane, but it had to be done. Otherwise the students would never know what they got on their papers. This was what she didn't like about teaching, granted that she loved teaching her students how to break apart a poem and write better papers, but just the math side of grading is what made her cringe. She turned on some music, playing it softly behind her, and then went back to her grading. The majority of her students were doing very well, which showed how much they were absorbing the material that she was teaching, but on the downside some of her students still were making just an average C in her class. Here she was a teacher who strives to keep all her students at B level, and some come off with a C. Where was she going wrong?
Emma brushed some of her hair back and closed her grading book, and pulled out her lesson log checking to see what she had going on tomorrow. Better to be ahead than do things last minute. She was caught off guard when she heard a knock at her door. She looked up and saw Ariel. She gave her a kind smile and ushered her in. " Sure, come on in Ariel. What can I help you with?." she said and closed her lesson book.The student sat down next to her desk and told her the problems she was having at home, and how is was effecting her concentration is Emma's class. Emma sat there and listened, it was true that she had noticed that Ariel had been struggling in class, but Emma was more than willing to help her bounce back.
