Irulan
21 Yrs. old
Hometown: Bronx, New York

Born to a white mother and a black father, Irulan was loved deeply and unconditionally by both parents, and recalls an idyllic early childhood. When she was six, her father became very ill, dying one year later. Irulan and her mother leaned on one another as they struggled to process her father's death. As a result, their relationship deepened into what her friends describe as an extraordinary bond. With a premium placed on her beauty, Irulan struggled briefly with body-image issues during her high school years, which she overcame through sheer force of will. Recently, she has been discovering and honing her artistic and intellectual talents through her studies at Parsons School of Design. While people may be initially attracted to Irulan's beauty and talent, they soon discover that she is strong and not afraid of conflict. While she and her boyfriend, Gabe, currently have an open relationship that allows them to see other people, he would be unhappy if she were to start something up with one of her roommates.
