Name: Caroline "Dancer" Riley
Age: 15
Physical Description: Caroline is a skinny and tall girl with hazel eyes that are almond shaped and pouty lips. Her hair is a naturally wavy blonde. Her outfit is usually a black shirt and black suspenders that have pockets. There are always tissue and wipes in her pockets, and her feet always have black flats on them. This is her selling outfit. In the lodge, she usually just wear a white shirt with the same pants with the suspenders.
History: Caroline grew up in a wealthy household, with 2 brothers and 1 sister, and she was the youngest. She grew up with her mother's parents as did the rest of her siblings because her parents had died young, and were left in the hands of two elderly people who were not interested in raising the next generation. Her brothers were devilish, her sister meek, but Caroline was the most trouble of them all to raise. She was what her parents called "touched." She was mainly stable, but there were the little things that bothered her. Things being out of order. Mess. Dirt. Grim. Uncleanliness. She would scream and shout when things got beyond the thing she could handle, she would shut down. So, to keep the children sane while the adults did whatever they wished, the grandparents allowed each of the children to pick an activity they enjoyed. The boys both picked sports of some sort, and Caroline's sister picked sew and knitting. But Caroline found her salvation in movement and the flurry and heat of movement. Caroline loved to dance. She particularly liked faster dances, but her grandparents considered this scandalous and made her stick to waltzes and ballet.
Caroline's siblings moved on. Her older brothers becoming "Blacksmith and Whitesmith Riley Brothers" her sister became a seamstress, and Caroline was left to take care of her old and sickly grandparents, who died when Caroline was 13. She was taken to an orphanage, where she wasn't able to dance as much as she used to, but she would often dance by herself in her room, until finally, the closure from the world and arts led Caroline to run away. She left for Staten Island, because she was told by her siblings she had family there, but she could not find any of them and instead became a newsie.
Personality: Besides her OCD, Caroline is a very kind and darling child. She likes to help others, and sometimes teaches the other newsies how to read and right if they can't. She is also always open to giving hygiene classes. She's also open to learning, and will listen to anyone for long enough. She has extreme patience, and take things rather literally. She isn't good with idioms, and will time someone when they say, "Just a minute"
Likes: Dancing, Cleanliness, Teaching others,
Dislikes: Dirt, Outside, Liars
