Chris York || 18 || Senior || FC: Donald Glover

While you may not have heard of Chris, you’ve certainly heard of his father. The son of famous stand-up comedian, Corbin York, he loves surrounding himself with funny people and getting himself into hilarious situations. He thrives on the attention of others, always striving to be the goofball of his friends, and he takes very few things seriously.
Some say that he’s too silly, but he actually uses humor as a coping mechanism. While his family life seems perfect, it’s anything but. While most see his father as just the hilarious comedian famous for his successful “Big Poppa” movie franchise, Chris sees a darker side of him. An alcoholic suffering from Bipolar disorder, his mother sent him away to Preston so that he wouldn’t have to deal with his father’s mood swings and temper.
Because of his familial struggles, Chris is unbelievably compassionate. To the few that are able to break through his exterior, he’s loyal and loves unconditionally. However, very few have actually been able to see this side of him, as he likes to keep most people at arm’s length. He’s very athletically talented, playing on both of Preston’s Crew and Lacrosse teams, and is going to the University of Michigan next year.

Dylan Ferrar || 15 || Freshmen || FC: Francisco Lachowski

Dylan is the sort of guy who everyone knows. When he first arrived at Preston, he took it upon himself to join each and every club he came across, craving the community feeling he would get from being a part of a group. Ambitious and goal-oriented, he also knew that a packed resumé would look impressive on his applications to his dream schools: Yale or Stanford.
Personality wise, Dylan is extremely outgoing, but he also takes his education seriously. He’s able to get along with most people, one of the exceptions being Holden Taylor. Holden is the polar opposite of Dylan with his hateful attitude and trouble-making ways, but Dylan doesn’t let him get in his way, making friends all over campus whether they’re scholarship kids, trust fund brats, fellow Freshman, or seniors. Dylan’s the type of person who just wants to know everyone, and be accepted.
However, his sugary sweet nice guy act is just that, an act, and he’s begun to show his true colors as he’s gotten more comfortable and familiar with Preston and his classmates; he has a bit of a cocky attitude that lay dormant for most of first semester, and he loves to flirt with the girls on campus. While he may seem humble, don’t be fooled, he is very much aware of his looks and the effect he has on females, and he loves to use that to his advantage.

─ Boys! Go look at your relationship page, it outlines your relationships and history your character has. These relationships are obviously going to change, and you all will obviously make more friends....I hope. ─

Holden Taylor || 18 || Junior || FC: Nathaniel Buzolic

Unlike the character from which he gets his name, Holden is extremely charming, and entitled. The son of a famous author, he’s extremely intelligent, but he has a wild side, a very prominent wild side. With his IQ, it was no wonder that he was accepted into Preston almost immediately, but he loves to push boundaries. With a spoiled, bad boy mentality, Holden is always getting himself into some kind of trouble, and constantly finds himself in situations that his parents have to pay his way out of.
Holden thinks that the majority of his classmates are idiots; he sees athletics as being a waste of time. During lacrosse games and regattas, when his classmates are all gathered on the field or at the river, you can most certainly find him walking the campus smoking or in his room with a bottle of scotch.
From the way he carries himself, you wouldn’t think he’s 18, more like 26. With good looks and his classic smirk, he certainly has no trouble attracting ladies, especially ones that crave the attention from a ‘bad boy’, but it takes a special kind of person to catch his eye. While he certainly finds his female classmates attractive, he has yet to meet one that actually intrigues him. He thinks the majority of the female population at Preston are all materialistic and too into themselves, even if he’s the epitome of self-centeredness.

Charlie Brewster || 16 || Sophomore || FC: Dylan O’Brien

Growing up, Charlie was really only ever good at one thing and that was lacrosse. His father, the owner of a television network, pushed his soon to work tirelessly at the sport, knowing that that was his son’s one selling point. Along with a generous donation on the part of Mr. Bargetto, and a reel showing Charlie’s lacrosse skills, he was accepted into Preston.
While it is rare for students to simply buy their way in, Charlie proved to be an asset to Preston’s lacrosse team, and the administration let him stay in school, even with a GPA that is steadily on the decline. It’s not that Charlie isn’t capable, it’s that he doesn’t want to be. He’s perfectly content to play lacrosse and hang out with friends and doesn’t see the point in putting in extra effort if he can just coast by on his father’s wealth for the rest of his life.
He’s a goofball and most like him, although occasionally the spoiled kid in him comes out and can be a bit of a turn off to some people. His friends know that deep down he’s a good guy, though, and they accept him, flaws and all. When it comes to girls, Charlie usually has his eye on several, most of which are upperclassmen and don’t give him the time of day. He alternates between being in love with Kate Carlisle and Sophia Maddox, but really, he’ll flirt with anything that walks.

Peter Hayes || 17 || Junior || On Scholarship || Prestonian Society Member || FC: Andrew Garfield

Not many bad things can be said about Peter Hayes. Perhaps the most neutral guy at Preston, he manages to navigate life without stepping on anyone’s toes or ruffling anyone’s feathers. A hard worker who comes from a single parent home, his mother worked two jobs sending him to a private middle school. Not wanting to let his mother’s hard work go to waste, he applied to Preston, and was ecstatic when he was offered a full ride scholarship.
It didn’t take long for Peter to quickly become one of the most well liked boys at Preston. Earnest and genuine, he has a sweet wit that melts even the coldest hearts. This was never more apparent than when he was able to catch the eye of Preston’s resident bitch, Danielle Reynolds. While most saw a bitchy and self-centered girl, Peter saw someone who was ambitious, someone who was simply misunderstood, and he took care to find out more about her. It was Peter’s best friend, Jacob, who finally pushed the two together, telling Peter to man up and ask her out, and ever since the two have been inseparable.
With his stellar academic record and involvement in varsity crew, it came as no surprise to anyone that Peter won the Prestonian in his sophomore year. At the awards ceremony, he watched as his mother cried tears of pride as he was given the plaque, and he knew that all of her hard work, and her sacrifice was worth it.

Alexander ‘Alex’ McCann || 15 || Freshman || FC: Logan Lerman

The quieter of the McCann twins, Alex has always been content living in his sister’s shadow. From the moment the two were born, Sara has made it clear that she is the dominant of the two, and Alex, a naturally peaceful person, knows to let her get her way. An avid reader, Alex prefers the company of his books to the company of others, and is an introvert. When it comes to girls, Alex is clueless. He’s handsome, but shy, however, in a painfully endearing way. He’s very modest when it comes to his looks, a stark contrast to his twin who always seems to flaunt hers. While Sara and Alex get along, it is only because he’s too passive to let half of the things she does get to him.
At the urging of his parents, Alex joined the crew team, and has since become more outgoing, even venturing outside his dorm walls and attending a party every once in a while. It took a while for his teammates to warm up to him, most of them originally put off by his quiet nature, but over time they learned to love him. His teammates and new found friends are constantly trying to pull him out of his shell, whether it’s making him talk to a girl at a party, or set him up on dates, and they’ve managed to help him build up some confidence, and Alex is slowly coming out of his shell.
Alex is extremely gifted in English and History, and fancies himself a history buff. He always either has his nose in a book, or can be found watching a film. While he usually isn’t a big talker, get him talking about films or books and you won’t be able to shut him up.

Twin brother of Sara McCann

Jacob ‘Jake’ Pierce || 17 || Prestonian Society || Senior || FC: Robert Pattinson

Jacob’s life has included worrying about his mother, and school. Up until he was fourteen he had spent every moment worrying about she and her dating habits—his parents having divorced when he was a child; but at the age of fourteen, she payed for him to go to Preston Academy, to get him out of her hair, she had never been one for children anyway, and paying a several thousand dollars for him to go to a boarding school would mean she had free reign to do whatever she pleased. And after sending him away, she virtually disappeared from the radar after paying off his school fees.
Upon entering Jacob Pierce’s lighter side emerged, he finally began to enjoy the funnier part of things, and came to realize aside from being relatively smart, he was actually funny, and enjoyed reading. He even got made some new friends at his school, being a pretty liked guy, and ended up winning the honor of joining Prestonian Society with his excellent GPA his sophomore year, in hopes that it would get him into a good college and he could move from the small town he had lived in his whole life.
When it comes to girls, Jake never found himself wasting his time on one after watching what happened with his own mother, not wanting to be the cruel guy in the relationship—he was too nice, but when he met Dani Reynolds he enjoyed how snarky she was, but before he had the chance to act on his feelings, his best friend Peter Hayes began dating her. Now they’re close friends, but he secretly wishes for more.

Tucker Price || 15 || Freshman || FC: Dave Franco

From the minute Tucker stepped onto Preston’s campus, it became clear that he was to become the school’s resident goofball. Always armed with a joke and a smile, he quickly became one of the upperclassmen’s favorite freshman. He’s as quick-witted as they come, and is especially good at coming up with insults when he heckles his opponents on the lacrosse field.
Tucker’s father is the famous host of a nighttime talk show, and his mother is a television actress known for her work on a successful crime drama, and because of his parents’ fame, Tucker has grown accustomed to being in the spotlight. He’s always trying to crack a joke to be in the center of attention, and is afraid of drifting into obscurity.
His goofy personality and fun-loving attitude have made it so that he has no shortage of friends, however, he doesn’t exactly fit the bill that Preston’s girls have when it comes to boyfriends, and that frustrates him. He’s had a thing for Maggie Garfield since seeing her at orientation on the very first day of Freshman year, but they both know that she’s out of his league. While the two are friends, she tends to gravitate more towards the bad boys, and he’s anything but.
