Fencing Captain

A senior, she was the second-best fencer on the team the past two seasons, and is both excited and apprehensive about being the team leader. Her father is a lawyer, mother a dentist, her family one of the most respected in town. Her mother's family has been influential in town for many generations; her parents had met in college, and when her father came her to visit his girlfriend's parents for the first time he fell in love with the community. The captain is very ambivalent about her family's history -- she's proud of her family's accomplishments and altruism, but is uncomfortable with their arrogance.
