Name: Clementine “Scout” Curtis
Age: 16
Physical Description: Scout stands at about 5’7. She has long blond hair and brown eyes. She wears boys clothes most of the time (all of which she stole from her brother or others), usually a dirty gray shirt which is rolled up to her elbows and the first two buttons undone, mostly cause its too hot to have it buttoned all the way up. She wears a black vest (usually unbuttoned and hanging loose) over her shirt with ratty white suspenders and a black pair of pants. She also wears black work boots and a gray newsie cap (which she also stole from her brother or others).
History: Scout was born and raised in Bloomsburg, Pennsylvania, but left her house a little after her 12th birthday. It wasn’t pleasant in her house, most of the time her father drank too much and would take his anger out on either her older brother or their Mother, but tired of seeing them be hurt she started to take her own beating. On of the calmer nights in their tiny little run down house she over heard her parents (Her tearful Mother and for once sober father) discussing with each other about sending her over seas to live with their Aunt to learn how to be a proper lady and mostly to get away from the drunk that is her father. Not wanting to go over seas, she packed most of her things, stole clothes, boots and a hat from her brother and set off into the night to live on her own.
Being the smart girl that she was she stowed away in a boxcar of a freight train and got a free trip all the way to New York city, where she eventually found herself in Queens and became a newsie.
Personality: She's not much of a fighter but if she has to fight she won’t back down. Scout's not scared easily and loyal as all hell, once she's on your side she stays there. She's a nice person most of the time and is very protective of her kids. Smokes like a chimney.
