2 role s

BIGMale30-49 y.o.African-American

Tattooed. LIL's older brother. A Mixed Martial Arts fighter on their way out. Strong, but not that tough. Keeps their feelings close to the chest. Doesn't talk much but when they do it's searingly honest. Observant. Wishes for more than they've had; different things than they've had. Physically imposing. A strong mover.

LILFemale20-29 y.o.African-American

BIG's younger sister. A Mixed Martial Arts fighter on their way up. Strong, but not that tough. Scrappy. Wears their heart on their sleeve. Talks a lot but takes a while to get to the truth. Yearning. A cheeky, vibrating ball of potential; give them a shot and watch them capitalize. Physically a match for BIG - strong/tall/solid. A strong mover.
