Layla Rudo

Summary
Layla Rudo is an original character created by Luxardel.

As a part African-American and part Caucasian girl, 18 year old Layla Rudo has struggled to accept her Black culture. Even so, her mother Kayla Rudo wants her to see the beauty of her race and "urges" her to join her school trip to Africa. After being sent off by her parents, her best friend Stephanie, and her persistent ex Peter, she boarded the plane with her peers. Not long after, the plane mysteriously crash landed in Africa and killed everyone on board except for Layla herself. She had survived due to the paradoxical powers of a necklace Peter had given to her before she left. Unfortunately, it was also the cause of her peers' deaths. She struggles to find a way back home, but eventually runs into Dexen along the way. Though their relationship is rocky at first due to personal grievances, they eventually grow closer and help each other with their goals.

Layla is a loving girl and is pretty smart. Having said that, she has more than enough moments of being naïve to prove otherwise. In addition to this, she also holds some negative feelings towards Black people despite being black herself. The only exception to this is her best friend Stephanie because she and Peter stood up for her many times when she was being bullied about being Black but looking White. After meeting Dexen and being forced to learn about African culture, her opinions about Black and African people start to change.
