Rachel Amber

Rachel Dawn Amber is a supporting character of A New Frontier. She was born in Long Beach, California and eventually moved to Arcadia Bay, Oregon. She attended Blackwell Academy and is one of the most popular students and a member of the theater group there. After saving Chloe one night, the two of them grow closer and become best friends. Their relationship is the central plot of her character. She and Chloe dreamed of leaving Arcadia Bay together as, according to Rachel, there was nothing keeping either of them there. When Max came to see and take them to New Seattle, she was joyous to move in with her and Chloe, Sean, and Daniel Diaz.

Appearance
Rachel normally wears a plaid red cardigan, and a white tshirt underneath. She also wears several necklaces: a black choker with three studs on it, a green necklace with a silver pendant with a red jewel on it surrounded by a black circle, and a long black necklace looped over her neck several times with an animal fang on the end of it. She wears denim shorts over torn-up black leggings, black fingerless gloves, and black boots. She has a black belt with a silver belt buckle depicting a hand showing the middle finger, overlapping another black belt with studs on it; she also has a chain hanging from a hoop clipped onto her shorts. She wears a single blue feathered earring on her left ear with a golden pheasant tippet at the top. On her left hand, Rachel wears a black bracelet with a blue strip down the middle of it, and on her right hand she wears a thin black bracelet and her classic bracelet, and a thick, brown-braided leather bracelet with silver-blue objects stuck on.

Personality
Like Max Caulfield, Rachel has an eye for images and art. Considering school performance in the effort put into being a model, she is a very ambitious person. She appears to have a caring personality, as she is well-loved by those close to her. Rachel also seems to have been more girly and idealistic than Chloe, reflected by her love of makeup and aspirations to become a model, as encourage by Lucoa. Rachel is friendly, outgoing and good with people - traits that catch the attention of her peers and teachers, resulting in her popularity at her old school and on a grander extent, wherever she goes.

However, Rachel is also a person who is used to getting what she wants. She is easily angered, especially when things don't go the way she wants (such as when Markus refuses to let her use a grenade) and this leads her to take some impulsive and sometimes destructive actions, such as stealing wine or lashing out at Chloe Price. She is also prone to vindictive behavior, which is displayed if Markus tells Rachel to stay back from the mission in The Tempest of the Damned, with her sneaking onto the train with the small group, Rebellion Action Squad led by Jesse. Rachel can be seen as somewhat manipulative towards Chloe, and the people around her.
