Personality[]

Alana is athletic, confident and has a tomboyish figure. She’s the star soccer player at school, mainly the reason why she's very popular. Though, she goes out of her way to welcome newcomers. She coaches a soccer team and she's also an animal lover, the reason why she volunteers at a local animal adoption center. She also has a hidden talent - she’s a aspiring gourmet chef and she loves to try exotic food, especially rare and ancient foods like milk soup, Greek-style beef skewers and even Viennese chocolate cake.
