Conner, Tony, Vanessa

Conner is your typical jock at school. His mother is a very cold woman, she is all about the looks of the family, everything from what her children wear, to who they date to what parties they go to. Everything has to be perfect, well at least physically. Conner also has a perfect twin sister, Cara, who he says is an exacted replica of their mother. The pressure by his parents to be the perfect family was too much pressure for Conner which lead him to shoot himself. Conner also before he went into Aspen Springs had a relationship with Emily, one of his high school teachers.

Tony's father left him and his mother when he was younger. Tony's mother slept around a lot and Tony was abused by a lot of those guys. With his mother and father absent from his life, Tony was forced to live on the streets and traded sex for pretty much anything, from money, to drugs, to even just a place to sleep. With all the abuse of his childhood Tony is confused with his sexuality. A couple months before he overdosed his best friend, and foster father Phillip died.

Vanessa is a smart, beautiful, shy girl. Her father is over seas fighting in the war, so he really hasn't been around for the past four years and her mother suffers with bi-polar disorder, so shes never mentally there. She says she sees angels and talks to them. Vanessa is also suffering with bi-polar disorder like her mother and is always swinging from "blue to gray to white" as she describes it. The way she copes is by cutting herself. Vanessa just before she was sent into the treatment center broke with the "love of her life" Trevor.
