Bethany’s role is forced upon her and which she does really well. She’s a shield for herself and for her mother. Bethany herself thinks she’s doing it because her mom’s organization is secret, but that’s a whole big lie.
Given a new life, new identity, new personality and everything, she does exactly what mommy dearest wants her to do—be completely opposite from herself almost 24/7. It’s quite toxic and messes with her mind, but she does it flawlessly. At school, she’s a popular mean girl. Think Regina George. But Bethany at her core (which she has lost right now) is not like Regina at all.
So far, the role is being this mean girl for “protection” whenever out in public.
My main is a firefighter. He’s average at his job, but tries hard. He’s a good son to his father but is estranged from his mother in the beginning, but will make moves to fix it by the end. As a lover, he is WIP and greatly improving at it by the end.
Julio is a mechanic and he works for Max (his bff) and they run a company called Rivera Bros. (named after Max’s surname). Julio mainly runs the office but sometimes helps out in the garage.
He also is a medium who talks to ghosts and helps them across to the afterlife and the other side.
In Marvela Mystic, my MC Marvela is a kitten whose role is that of a familiar for a witch, a role which she’s comfortable with. She’s thrown out of her comfort zone a bit after her role changes and she ends up with the powers of a full witch and has to look after her own familiar.
In The Dark Between Dreams, Skye becomes a scavenger, a ghost who searches the perilous wasteland of the afterlife for objects carried over from the living realm, and hauls them to the ghost city for trade.
In Hollow is the Heart, Webb is also a ghost who was a former scavenger now turned (mostly unemployed) monster hunter who is in charge of keeping the city safe.
