Fanon:Sierra Cheesman

Sierramyst Jolina Plumb Cheesman, better known as Sierra, is currently a student at Fort Starch Military Academy. She was born in Sunset Valley to Andrew Cheesman, a professional soccer player, and Savannah Plumb, an author, adventurer, and archaeologist. The second daughter born to the couple, Sierra was given the middle name of Jolina to honor Savannah's paternal grandmother, Jamie Jolina. She sometimes signs her name SierraMyst, but like her older sister Sage, she seldom uses her full name in conversation. The only person to call Sierra by her full name is her mother.

Early years
Sierra Cheesman grew up in Sunset Valley and Hidden Springs as a child of privilege. As the daughter of a professional athlete and a famous author and adventurer, she had the best of everything. But there were things that were unusual about this child. For example, she enjoyed sports and loved to go outside with her father and brothers and toss the football around. Even the family's butler, Max, often played with her. It was said that already at the age of six she was capable of throwing a perfect spiral -- a ball that is thrown in such a fashion that it rotates in mid-air. (That kind of ball is considered important for a quarterback in football.) In addition, like her father she enjoyed fishing, so much so that she asked to join the Hidden Springs chapter of the Scouts as the only girl, and her parents allowed it. Sierra's mother, Savannah, has admitted to being partial to her because of their very similar ways as children and their kindred spirits.

Adolescence
In her early teens, Sierra's tomboyish ways continued, but a traumatic experience led to a dramatic change in her personality. While the family was living in Moonlight Falls due to Savannah's job as the curator for the Museum of Antiquity there, Sierra was abducted by aliens. She had come from the Summer Festival, and after playing soccer against her friend Jules MacDuff (and beating him), she had decided to go home to rest. While sitting outside alone, she heard a noise. Looking up, she spotted the alien spaceship. Since she was the only household member awake at the time (a fact confirmed by Savannah in her blog), Sierra was taken aboard the ship. She is one of the only teenagers documented to have ever been abducted.

After the abduction, Sierra's personality changed dramatically. She began dying her hair lots of different colors. She experimented in the occult, dabbling in alchemy and regularly seeing a psychic. She dressed as a burglar for Halloween. She began talking about space and wanting to become an astronaut. Like her mother she explored the catacombs of the local cemetery at night. There were other things too. She was skipping school, staying out all night, getting into trouble at school, and getting into fights with other kids. Sierra even bragged about having a rap sheet 'as long as her leg' to university students while she was taking her placement test.

Her lack of empathy showed up when her older brother was rushed to the hospital after collapsing during an argument. She didn't visit him in the hospital until his last day, and only because her parents made her come.

Sierra's teachers at Alpine Community School regard her as 'bright but unmotivated,' and Savannah suspects that like herself and Sierra's older brother before her, she has yet to be properly challenged at school. This is also confirmed by Sierra's older sister, Sage, who even surmises that when the time comes, Sierra would 'blow her test score away.'

Sierra attended the prom at Alpine Community School, accompanied by Lily Richards, a neighborhood girl. After a campaign which included begging everyone to vote for her, Sierra was surprisingly voted Prom Queen. Later on she admitted that she'd done it as a joke. That night Lily revealed she'd had feelings for her for awhile, and the pair started dating. Sierra came out as a lesbian first to her father, and then her mother, who both seem to be accepting. However, the couple had to separate when Sierra went to Fort Starch.

After one particular altercation, in which she beat up a boy so badly he had to be hospitalized, and a video of the incident surfaced online, a judge sentenced her to a stint at Fort Starch Military Academy. With her parents, Andrew and Savannah, in the front row, Sierra showed no remorse for the incident and went off to the academy.

While at Fort Starch, Sierra posted pictures to her Simbook page of herself making and detonating a homemade bomb in her dorm room. This led to the revocation of privileges she'd accumulated while there. However, she was allowed to take the SUAT test, and she tested at a level that would net her a partial scholarship.

While at the university taking the SUAT test, Sierra revealed the details of her abduction to her mother.
