personailty:
Rachel is definitely not the most easiest of people to get along with. Alot of people describe Rachel as a 'diva' and they don't mean it in the sense that she would hope. She can be extremely over dramatic about anything. She likes to dramatise small things and will blow them out of proportion. Rachel comes across as very self involved. Of course most of the time this is the case, she puts herself first and will do anything that will further her career.

Rachel is also seen as controlling and bossy. She has no problem in telling others what to do and how they're doing it wrong especially when it comes to performing. Rachel also has a jealous streak, she likes to be the centre of attention and with being an only child of two gay dads she has grown up used to that fact. She is also quite stubborn and usually never backs down from a fight. She's very opinionated and will make sure her opinions are heard.

Despite all this, Rachel can be extremely loving, she's quite protective over her friends in glee, though she rarely shows it.

appearance:
Sexy librarian chic - those would be Rachel's words exactly. She doesn't always dress to impress but rather dresses in what she feels comfortable in. Rachel is usually always found in either dresses or skirts and sweaters - usually with some kind of animal print on. However, as time went on, Rachel has become a lot more experimental in her look. She is trying to update her wardrobe with some of the latest looks but is always found wearing something unusual that just screams 'Rachel Berry'.
Her long brown hair is usually left to hang down, sometimes completely straight or sometimes with a slight wave to it.

history:
From the moment the baby girl was handed over to them, Hiram and Leroy Berry knew she was destined for stardom. Rachel's two fathers who had been desperate for a child put an advert in a paper for a surrogate, it was Shelby Corcoran who answered the advert and 9 months later, Rachel was born. At that time, Shelby had signed a contract stating that she would have nothing to do with the child and Rachel was raised by her two fathers in Lima, Ohio.

As soon as it was possible, Rachel's fathers enrolled her in all the classes they could. She attended several of the best dance schools and was given vocal lessons by one of the best in the country. With being an only child, Rachel was thoroughly spoilt by the pair and it was with all the classes they enrolled her in, that Rachel's love for performing developed. From an early age, Rachel loved the idea of being the centre of attention, she loved the rush she got when people stood, clapped or cried when she sang for them.

Growing up, Rachel had always wondered about her mother and why she wasn't there but the love that her two father's gave her always stopped her from questioning it further. As Rachel started high school, she soon found it to be a much scarier place than she had ever envisioned. Alot of people instantly disliked her for her abrupt and over-achieving ways.

When she saw the sign up sheet for glee club, Rachel knew that this was her chance to become somebody at high school, she knew it would be her way to show others just how great she was. Of course nothing in the world of Rachel Berry is that simple. Rachel had a hard time working as a team, she believed that she deserved most, if not all of the solos that were being offered because she was the best.

Despite this, Rachel started to learn what it meant to be a team player and that sometimes, it was okay for her not to get all the solos. Her popularity didn't rise with joining glee, in fact it just got her more noticed in the way she didn't want. The slushies continued and she was soon on the wrong side of the cheerleaders for falling for Finn Hudson.

It was because of glee that Rachel also found her biological mother, the vocal coach of her team's main rival. Rachel couldn't understand why the pair didn't instantly feel a connection that made them want to run into each other's arms or for them to spend time together getting to know each other, it just didn't feel right. It pains her to know that the pair couldn't form a relationship, especially when she has moments in her life when she needs a mother to talk to.

Lilly stepped off the bus and took a deep breath as she took in the surroundings of her home town of san francisco. As she picked up her bags she tried to recall how long it had been since she had been home or had even spoke to her family. Lilly had always been extremely close with her family but since the death of one of her younger cousins, Tabby, the whole family had become almost detached. Lilly found herself feeling withdrawn from everyone and threw herself into her college studies. It was in fact one of her assignments that had lead her home. They had had to come up with a song that took them back to one of their favourite memories. She had chosen a song that she had sang at one of her birthday parties which had the theme of Karaoke, ‘my life would suck without you’. Lilly let out a smile as the memory of herself and Tabby singing away to the song came to mind, Lilly had always been quite the perfomer, singing was her passion and she was never shy to show it which is why she loved karaoke, she would always force Tabby into joining her on the stage, her smile soon faded when the memory of finding out her cousin was ill came next.

Sighing, Lilly headed towards the direction of the cabs,all the while the question of whether she had made the right decision to return ran through her mind. She had transferred to a local college, still doing the same course. Her assignment had made her realise that this was the time when her family needed her, she had to put them in front of her career and ambitions. As the cab pulled up to the family home, Lilly felt a little saddened when she realised no-one was in. She was hoping at least her twin sister would be, seeing as she was the only one who knew of her decision to return home. Heading upstairs to her old room, Lilly took a shower and got herself changed after she had unpacked her cases. Not wanting to stay in the house by herself, Lilly headed out into town.

Lilly had decided to head to P3, she figured one of her family members would be there, it was the usual hangout spot for any of the halliwell/matthews-mitchells. As she headed down the stairs of the club, she looked around for any familiar faces in the crowd but frowned when she didn't recognise anyone. Heading towards the bar, Lilly slipped onto one of the bar stools and ordered herself a coke. Lilly smiled and thanked the bartender as she pushed over the glass to her. Picking it up, Lilly swung herself around on the stool so she was able to look around the club clearly.

As her eyes passed one of the booths, she did a double take as an all too familiar face caught her eye. Clutching onto her glass, Lilly hadn't realised how tight she was holding it until the glass shattered in her hand. Keeping her eyes fixated on the young blonde, Lilly suddenly jumped when she felt someone touch her shoulder and wrap a cloth around her hand. Glancing down she saw some blood spots through the towel and the bartender fussing over it. Lilly kept trying to push him away so she could get a closer look at the girl but to her annoyance he refused to let her go until he had bandaged her hand.
