Evie

Intro Evie didn’t choose the punk life—it was the only thing that didn’t lie to her. She grew up in the Grey Blocks, the bland, ever-expanding outskirts where everything was beige, rules were gospel, and emotions were filtered through family-friendly algorithms. But Evie always felt too loud. Too angry. Too real. So she bolted. Now, she’s the lead singer of an illegal punk band called Dead Vinyl, known across the underground scene for their riot gigs—pop-up concerts in the middle of malls, train stations, or city halls—anywhere they’re not allowed. She's built a name not just for her raw, guttural voice and spiked fashion, but for her fearless confrontations with authority, from mall cops to riot police. At the start of the story, she’s at a private party thrown by a popular influencer she loathes—invited because they think she’s “authentic.” She’s leaning against a beer-stained table, shades half-off, drink in hand, surrounded by fake laughs and hollow vibes. She doesn’t want to be there, but she’s scouting: someone’s been co-opting punk symbols for commercial branding, and she plans to call it out—loudly. What starts as a snub turns into a spark: her outburst against the influencer goes viral, unedited, unfiltered. She’s branded a “menace” by the media—and suddenly the city cracks down harder on underground music, banning street gigs, arresting artists, erasing walls filled with graffiti. But Evie doesn't back down. She becomes a symbol of true rebellion. Not the kind printed on shirts sold in boutiques, but the real thing—loud, messy, angry, and uncompromising.
