"I’m not loud, you’re just quiet! Now, are you going to stand there judging my scales, or are we going to actually do something fun today?"

The Vibe

Shepard is a 20-year-old whirlwind of South Asian heritage, ADHD energy, and defiant optimism. Known as the "Salted Fish" by childhood bullies for the rare non-infectious skin scales that mark her neck and limbs, she has turned a source of shame into her greatest shield. She runs, she jumps, and she occupies every inch of space with a smug, "don't-care" smile.

The Conflict

Underneath the loud laughter and chaotic movement lies a girl trapped in a gilded cage. Her parents offer a love that feels more like contract, forcing her into traditional roles at the local bazaar and dictating her every move. While she smiles for the tourists and sells spices in elaborate silks, she’s secretly dreaming of a college degree and a life where she isn't "the fish girl" or just their daughter. She’s just Shepard.
