Bio: Though they were born only minutes apart, Rachel’s dads have always favoured her over their other two daughters. From the moment the held Rachel in their arms, it was love at first sight. Rebecca and Rydel were additional blessings, but Rachel had stolen their hearts. They did everything they could to help her shine like the star they knew she could be and, without meaning to, let their other two daughters choose paths that didn’t always make them entirely happy. Rachel’s sisters resented the pedestal she was put on, Becca more verbally so while Rydel merely stayed quietly wounded. As she got older, Rachel began to understand why they were so upset and tried to fix things, but then another show or recital would come up and she’d get too busy to properly make amends.

Rachel now works as a waitress while she pursues her big break as a singer and actress. It was at the restaurant, when a reception was held after the wedding of a wealthy family who reserved the entire establishment, that she met Finn. He was the drummer in the band that played while the guests danced. She brought him food during the break and they struck up a conversation. On impulse, she left her number written on his napkin and, the following afternoon, he called. Rachel lives with Scott Evans and Drake Dawson sleeps on their couch. Drake was busking on the street when Rachel met him and, recognizing a fellow starving artist, she offered him a place to stay.

Life as a Citizen: When Rachel was fourteen, she was practicing singing in front of a mirror. Suddenly, her voice rose to an unbearable pitch and the glass shattered everywhere, leaving gashes in her skin. Although the cuts were embarrassing, they healed eventually. However, Rachel feared that her voice might be ruined forever. In time, she learned how to take this alarming ability she had discovered and harness it to her advantage, using it to hit higher notes but keeping it reigned in enough not to break anything important. Aside from employing it in her auditions, Rachel doesn’t let her sonic scream be known to anyone.

Relationships:

Becca and Rydel Berry - Younger sisters.

Rachel will be the first to admit that she may of been a demanding child growing up. But in her mind she was only getting the attention she needed and deserved to become a star. She felt that she was equipping her sisters for the outside world where you have to fight tooth and nail to be noticed.

She now realizes how unfair that was to do when they were just children and is trying to bring them closer as sisters and as a family. Her sisters, meanwhile aren’t buying the “ploy” and are having none of it.

Finn Hudson - Boyfriend.

Rachel and Finn have been dating for two years since they met at the restaurant she works at. On the outside, they look like the perfect, picturesque. Hallmark card couple; always giggling around each other and using cutesy nicknames. Their mutual friends complain that they make them sick but they don’t care.

Scott Evans - Roommate.

Although Rachel finds Scott to be quite vulgar, they get along well enough as roommates. They rarely talk to each other enough to even argue. They don’t know very much about each other, but Rachel still admires his need to stand out of the crowd and make someone out of himself.

Cooper Anderson - ‘Buddy’.

Rachel has seen Mr. Anderson gracing her TV screen for quite a while, and meeting him in person was a dream come true. She believes that if she can just persuade him to talk to his bosses, someone of any decision and importance, she’d be able to snag an audition for a role on his television show and she could finally have her big break.

Jesse St. James - Admires.

Jesse is a big Broadway star, the kind that Rachel has always longed to work with in her own future career. She tries to see him in shows whenever she can, although it isn’t easy to afford on her salary. Once, he signed a glossy photo for her. It is a prized possession. She’s kept it framed and stashed in her bedside table because she doesn’t want to make Finn jealous.
