  1. I鈥檓 a poet at heart. Bilingual and bicultural, I straddle the world of modern America and the nostalgia for Cuba, passed down to me by my exile parents. I am spirited, young, and have excellent rhythm.
  2. The last of my kind, I am beautiful and powerful. I can really get inside your head. I try to use my powers for good and keep to myself, but drama keeps finding me. I am continually pulled into adventure.
  3. I am really interested in female drama, especially the relationships between mothers and daughters. I have a lot of secrets and heartache, but I can be very tender at times, especially in trying to protect others.
  4. I may be young, but I鈥檝e been through a lot. My family and I have been attacked, and we fought back. I have done bad things, but I feel justified, and besides, you can鈥檛 take back the past. You鈥檝e got to be strong to face the future, and I鈥檝e got to help fight for the kind of future I want to live in.
  5. When I took power, people were hopeful about me and the promise that I had. I鈥檝e been a real disappointment, though, and brought pain and violence to many. I keep causing problems for those around me. Read more to find out what went wrong and what the future might hold.
