*Aviana can come off as CATTY if you are not well acquainted with her. Her attitude towards others isn't very nice, particularly if you hold her up or give her attitude back (it's slightly hypocritical but that's how she rolls). She isn't very fond of letting new people into her life, so she puts up a wall to block others from getting too close to her. More often than not, Aviana will acknowledge others to a point where they think she likes them, but in reality it's just how her parents raised her to be. She hates kids more than others but if she had to accompany herself with people or animals, she'd choose animals in a heartbeat. Ana is extremely INDEPENDENT; she'd rather not have people help if she really has an interest in it. Ana has found out over the years that she is extremely SMART but doesn't care. She is much more of a PARTYER than she is an academic, but she still puts enough effort into school to be in the top five.

*Aviana is a very tan girl, coming from spending most of her time on the soccer field and on the beach. The thick tan she has also comes from the heavy Italian blood running through her veins. That's what also gives her the chocolatey locks that reach just past her mid-back. Her hair is almost always down, unless she is in a sporting event or just hot then it is tied back in a high ponytail. She has grey eyes which match her father's, and always accents them with some mascara, even if she is going out to play sports. Her athletic five foot seven body is kept in shape with her active lifestyle of sports and she is constantly in the water, whether to surf or swim. The feature she dislikes most about her body is her nose, finding her lobule annoyingly misshapen.

Aviana's wardrobe consists of whatever is in style and a massive amount of athletic shorts. Whenever the occasion doesn't call for semi formal or formal attire she will wear a pair of shorts and a tee shirt as long as it is accepted.

*Kathy and Vincent Catarisano spoiled their daughters with the fortune they had built up while working in southern California. Both girls went to prime, top notch schools. Aviana and her older sister Daniella spent most of their preschool years playing in the sand, creating a deep passion for the ocean. Aviana started soccer career when she was very young, playing for a small league not far from where they lived. Her coach noticed even from a young age that she had a knack for the sport.

When school started, Aviana was bullied simply for her lack of interest in her work. Many kids in her school were terrified of disappointing their parents in school, even from young ages, so to not care about school was seriously frowned upon by nearly everyone. Aviana was much more interested in kicking a soccer ball and paddling around in the waves whenever she was able to get outside. Being the independent child that she was, Aviana never told her parents of the kids being mean to her, and learned how to keep a straight face.

Once the latter part of her elementary days had arrived, her fellow peers began digging harder and harder into her brain. Aviana was having a harder time keeping herself composed when kids tried to bully her. Due to her muscular figure, she was a bit intimidating when she finally got mad, and ended up fighting the kids that were constantly terrorizing her. It silenced the bullying for a while, since kids knew that she wasn't afraid of hitting back if she had to. Her parents weren't too fond of the fact that she got in fights, but once Aviana told them of what was happening, their position on the matter changed slightly.

Aviana took middle school as an opportunity to start over. Over the summer she had opened more books, learned as much as she could on the subjects before they came, and prepared herself to put an effort into school. She joined the modified soccer team and played some volleyball her first year of middle school but took on varsity soccer the next year due to there only being a modified and varsity team. The coach felt that she wasn't going to improve much on modified so pulled her up to the next level. She finished out middle school in the top five of the students after applying her new system to school.

High school was when Aviana had earned her respect and made herself respected by pretty much all of the students. She obtained a rather snide attitude, only allowing herself a few true friends and some close ones as well. Aviana took on a bit of a queen bee roll of her school, often having silent clashes with another girl in her year. The other girl was also very athletic, playing volleyball as well. The girls were often paired together for volleyball, the other girl being the setter and Ana a hitter. Though they acted as they were friends, they had a rivalry going on between them in sports and in school. Aviana was competing for the second spot in their class with the girl. Unfortunately, the other girl prevailed, knocking Aviana to third in their class.

Up until weeks before Aviana's parents forced her into applying for colleges, she had no idea what she even wanted to major in, only that she wanted to play soccer. Having an interest in very little provided a challenge to overcome. All her parents wanted for her was a happy life. Aviana was rather disappointed in the fact that her parents hadn't a set goal for her, almost wishing that they would force her into a field, which she would have gladly done. Finally she settled on social sciences so that she would have a wide range of career paths ahead of her if she wasn't able to pursue soccer.
