Robin Sterling is an all-around character introduced in 2021. She is a student at Rainbow High that focuses in Performing Arts.
Character Description
Robin Sterling was born to be a star, and she's been shining bright her whole life. A bit over the top, and always looking for her big break, she's a glamorous film star in the making. When she isn't "in character", she models herself after her favorite actresses from Hollywood's Golden Age - full of poise, confidence, and a touch of drama.
As a performing arts student at Rainbow High, she's always nose-deep in scripts and reciting monologues in between classes. She loves to be in the spotlight and will go to great lengths to land that leading role in the school play. However, since Rainbow High is full of so much talent, that isn't always how it goes for her. But like any rising star, she knows that every good story starts with humble beginnings.
