Full Name: Antoinette Benten
Newsie name: Misery
Name origin: Given to her due to her circumstances she went through growing up
Age: 13
Gender:Female
Birthplace: Brooklyn, New York
Currently Living: Brooklyn
History: Misery grew up like most normal kids did, with a loving family and a great life. Five years however seemed to be the limit of her happiness when suddenly a fire struck her house in the middle of the night taking the lives of all that lived in there except for hers. Managing to escape however without the detection of the police, Misery grew up on the streets of Brooklyn learning to surivive and fend for herself. She became a Newsie to earn some money for a place to sleep at night and food when she turned seven after watching the trade for several years.
During those times she became restless and bored, yearing for excitment and adventure. She began to sing; Misery soon learned that she was indeed talented at singing and so she took it to the streets; more money came in and more food came out of it. Soon she began to have a dream, to become famous and rich and to have a place called her own. She decided that now she would sing and sell papes in order to survive and so far it's been working well for her, now all she has to do is wait and be discovered; or perhaps it won't ever happen at all.
