personality evaluated. Reece sees everything in a black and white matter. People are either seen as good or bad by her. Someone who lies and cheats is a bad person so if she catches you lying to her chances are you will be on her shit list. It is hard for the girl to maintain relationships because she is scared of abandonment. She doesn't want to get too close because she knows they will leave her at some point. She also is highly paranoid and doesn't trust anyone, people always have some sort of agenda. Reece is very moody and highly irritable, though she tries to hide this behind her witty remarks or sarcastic nature, she does occasionally snap at someone.
The girl finds very little joy in life. Everything bores her and she has a hard time feeling any sort of emotion. When she does feel emotion it is usually anger. She doesn't care about other people, not even her family. The actress is extremely impulsive and once she sets her mind on something she has to have it. She will manipulate people in order to get what she wants, or have things done her way. Reece realizes that the way her mind works is not normal behavior and has always tried to mask it. The side she tries to portray is that of a girl who loves to have a good time. Most people see her as the funny, outrageous, party girl. Most things she does, she does because it is what people expect. For example crying at a funeral, while she feels no sadness she fake cries to fit in with everyone else. The main thing to know about Reece is the way she acts to the world is not the way she really feels on the inside.

history evaluated. Reece was born on December 1st, 1989 to Luis and Ameda Russo. The couple had been married nine years and their marriage was just beginning to fall apart. Luis worked for the military as a big time warfare guy. He was one of those topic secret need to know basis types, with a shiny office located in the restricted section of the Pentagon. He loved his job so much he spent as much time as possible there. Ameda on the other hand did not enjoy her job at all. She too worked at the Pentagon which is how the couple met. Only she had a very mundane job of making maps and routes for troops over seas. Over the years Luis got promotions while Ameda stayed in the same spot and her disdain for her job grew even more. Her children were the only happy thing in her life and when she became pregnant for a third time she decided to try and work things out. However, after two more years there was no fight left in the girl's mother and she realized there was nothing to salvage in the marriage. So when Reece was five her mother moved them to a small town just outside of New York City. Ameda's best friend from high school lived there and she they could stay with her until she figured things out.
Ameda had been a dancer in her youth and had always wanted to be on Broadway. So living near Nyc now she was determined to get her daughters into the business. When Reece was six she got a small spot in the musical "Annie," she didn't stay very long but it got her noticed. After a year her mother was approached by a scout who said Reece fit the look her company was seeking, and with that the young girl went on and audition for a popular soap opera. After a number of call backs Reece was informed she won the role of a main character's daughter. Over the next eleven years she stayed on the soap opera, different years she had different amount of screen time but she found that acting was what she loved to do.
When she was sixteen she fell in love with a co-star named Damien. He was in his twenties and played her character's older brother. The two spent most their time together. It started out as practicing lines which led to hanging out off set, which escalated to a full blown relationship. However, Damien had a sorted past which included physical abuse and use of a number of illegal substances. Over their two years relationship Damien corrupted and abused the young girl. He would cheat on her with other women, tell her she was worthless and ugly, and sometimes break up with her for no reason then want her back a few days later. Reece didn't know what to do it was her first relationship and all she knew was that she thought she was in love. The two used drugs together quite often and the girl quickly fell into Damien's world which was full of underground clubs, illicit drug use, and lots of shady characters. Toward the end of their relationship the abuse turned physical and that's when Reece wasn't sure what to do. She was hiding bruises from the costume department, which was not an easy task, and after three incidents she decided to tell her best friend, Isobel. Izzy convinced Reece to tell someone what was going on, but it ended up that she didn't need to. That week Damien overdosed on heroine and was pronounced dead on the scene when medics arrived.
After the death of Damien, Reece decided it was too hard being on the set and living in New York where there was constant reminders of everything that happened. While she had grown to see everyone who worked on the soap opera as family she decided it was time to leave. After graduating from high school she moved out to Los Angeles and in with her brother Lorenzo who was now an aspiring writer/producer in Hollywood. It's been three years now, all of which have been a struggle. Reece has been awarded minor roles in films and movies but nothing that would launch her into stardom like she had hoped for. The constant stress of failure has really had an effect on her. She began cutting herself as a way to deal with her frustration, as well as using large amounts of cocaine as an escape. Life isn't anything like she had hoped and the actress is debating on returning to New York and asking for her spot back on the soap opera.

roleplay sample."CHECKING THE GATE!" was yelled by the camera operator. Those three little words every actor loves to hear. It was like in school when that last bell rang at the end of the day. It signaled freedom. It meant the episode was complete, for the actors at least. Now the poor writers, editors, and other production employees had a lot of work ahead of them to finish things before sending the finished product off to the network, but not Cassidy. She sometimes felt bad leaving behind the set when so much work was actually still needing to get finished, but her job was to read the pretty little lines they'd written for her and while she herself had a vast knowledge of things like editing and mixing it wasn't her job and she had no business sticking around.
In fact if she did chances are she would be told to get the hell out. Politely, of course since she was an actress and for some reason made her of higher importance. Which was something she didn't necessarily agree with. In television and film you stick to your specific job and if you don't do it right you get your ass chewed out. It's competitive and everyone has to be sharp or risk losing their job, except actors. No the actors get babied because they're the talent. Cass never understood this, she thought everyone was talented and appreciated all of their work. Editing is an art. Sound mixing is an art, and as far as the actress could tell they had some pretty damn good artists with the show.
She said goodbye to people on her way to her trailer. She thought it was nice to acknowledge everyone, and make sure they felt appreciated. After all if the show was a hit they would be spending a lot of time together over the years. The way the actress saw it being on a show was like being in a family. After awhile everyone gets to know everyone and you develop very deep bonds. "Have a good weekend Susan!" She said as she opened her trailer door and went inside to change. She did so in a hurry, she wanted to get home and take a nap. Napping was a habit she developed quickly back in the days of University of Nowhere. Take them while you can get them. Weeks were jam packed with early morning calls and late nights so even if you had fifteen minutes power naps were golden. Cassidy put her costume in a bag then picked up her purse.
Seven voicemails. She listened to them on her way to wardrobe. Nothing too important, message from Cade about absolutely nothing, just her babbling on. another from Cammie talking about how she didn't even care what the tabloids said. She figured this was in regards to Chris and they must have been talking about the two again.. real surprise. "See you next week!" She wished the costume designer as she dropped off her bag and continued listening to her voicemail on the way to the car. "Hey, Cass I got your number from Michael.. who got it from David.. who got it from this guy you went to high school with Samuel.. not sure how he got it but anyways, well hi my name is..." The starlet pressed delete. She never understood how these people got her number, she just hoped she wouldn't be one that continually called and have to change her number. Yet again.
The drive to the Beverly Hilton was long and boring. It wasn't very far from the set but with traffic? Total nightmare, perk of living in Los Angeles! "Hi Stanley, how are you?" She greeted the smiling bellhop at the doors, then texted Cammie on the elevator up to their penthouse.
'We just wrapped. So glad. I'm on my way to our place, hope you're there so we can talk about.. well anything and everything.'
The elevator dinged and the doors opened. 'Naptime', the tired blonde thought to herself. She walked into the apartment and threw her purse on a side table near by. She rubbed her sleepy eyes and let out a sigh of exhaustion as she walked into the kitchen. Cadence was in there.. doing exactly what she had warned her roommates not to do. "So I take it you missed the day of second grade where they taught you how to read?" There was a hint of sarcasm in her voice, but it was mostly just plain annoyance. She was a bit irked by her sister disrespecting her wishes, but as she stared at all the wonder food on the counter she couldn't help but want in on it. She eyeballed a bag of frosted animal crackers, her mouth practically watering from how bad she wanted them. "Why did I even buy this? It's soo tempting."
