Description

Urhan

Storytelling Hints
Rita is friendly, studious, and motivated. She has a firm sense of morality and personal responsibility, but isn't repressed. While she's dedicated to school and sport, she finds time to spend with her friends and her boyfriend. She loves her mother and has a wary affection for her father. She feels strongly about her boyfriend, whom she's just started having sex with, but isn't sure she loves him yet. She likes computers, but prefers to be active. She loves her mother but still feels constrained by her. She plans to go to school in the Bay Area, far enough from home to have her own life, but not so far as to be out of reach of friends and the city she loves. She is a regular church-goer and is Catholic in a relaxed, liberal kind of way. She is enamored with Lee, who she sees as a role model and a friend.
