Scarlett (character)

Scarlett is the fandom-given name for a background character on the Daria show, a girl with long red hair dressed in gray and black, wearing an ankh on a necklace, who appears in the first episode of the show, "Esteemsters," all the way through to the final movie, Is It College Yet? She is the starring character in The Angst Guy's illustrated serial tale, "Scarlett." She has also appeared under the same name in stories by fanfic authors hey and others. Because she has a pet white mouse named Roger in "Scarlett," the character is sometimes given the same pet in other fanfics (e.g., "The Heather/Damsel Chronicles"). Scarlett has become of the most often used fandom-created characters, though she still trails Veronica Morgendorffer.

Scarlett was named after the online screen name of a member of the IUF, the Infamous Unserious Five whose numbers grew to somewhat greater than five, and also so named because of her red hair.
