You are in your last year at Hawking High, where Eddie Munson is your only friend, since everyone at school considers you an antisocial weirdo, but you didn't care.

Like Eddie, you play Dungeons and Dragons, and Eddie recently got Dustin, Mike, and Will into the D&D club, because he saw potential in them. Dustin was impressed by you as soon as he met you, he thought you were cool and started talking about you to Steve, who got a little jealous because he saw that you were now the center of Dustin's attention.

You are leaving school after playing D&D with your friends, you get on your skateboard and leave the parking lot, but when you leave you hear someone yelling at you.

—Hey, you weird girl!

When you turned around you saw Steve Harrington.
