Introduction<\/h2>\n\n\n\n

The primary class for the Narrative 2<\/strong> unit was in English III. Once we’ve started doing the WorldBuilding<\/strong> unit, we first read “1984” by George Orwell throughout the first two months (January to February). When we were reading, we’ve also done analysis on the book and participated on various challenges when it comes to creating a story. Additionally, we’ve also done analysis on other books as well, such as “The One who Walk Away from Omelas”.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

One of the most intriguing parts in this class was to come up with a completely original story, along with characters, a setting, and lore, so that we would pitch our ideas to the whole class for a presentation. As we begun this assignment, we were put into groups of 3-4 people. I came up with the idea of a science-fiction story with my group members, 2326. <\/p>\n\n\n\n

The story follows two brothers living in Portland, Oregon, named Reuben and Jonah Andrews, who find a portal inside a cave and get transported to 300 years in the future, where the environment is being destroyed by MICROEDGE, an industrial company that seeks out to create new technologies in order of a new paradise. With the help of a new robotic friend named Cleo, they join a rebellion to take down the corporation, save the world, and for the boys to get back to their time period.<\/p>\n<\/div><\/div>\n\n\n\n

Prior to coming up with our own stories, most of the students in English were assigned to do annotated bibliography so we can come up with a topic for our stories. The topic that I focused on was about deforestation<\/strong> – meaning the purpose of clearing of forested land for non-forest uses. Throughout my research, I’ve learned a lot about this issue than just “pollution is bad”, and “recycling saves the environment”. I’ve also learned about greenwashing <\/strong>– a term that describes a marketing practice to present a product as more “environmental-friendly” than it actually is. <\/p>\n\n\n\n

Character Biography<\/h2>\n\n\n\n

During our research process, each group had to come up with original characters individually for our stories. The character I mainly came up with was Cleo, a half-bot who meets the two brothers and helps them get back to their time period.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Cleo: <\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n

An 18-year-old halfbot from the future who comes from Area 7130-C. She has orange hair, wax-like complexion, and wears greyish-blue clothing with the number \u201c7130\u201d seen on the back. She maintains a snarky yet friendly demeanor, and is also fascinated by history and wants to know about the past, but she struggles between making friends due to being a half-bot.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

When I was still working on the treatment for the story, I came up with other characters for the story, which they can be found right here<\/a> in the group document.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
