The Powers Family

Roxie Powers nee Sharpe

Roxie has always been a punk rocker. She's had to deal with a lot of hardships in life (admittedly a lot are down to her own bad decisions) but she's taken them all head-on and worked very hard to succeed. Despite the fact that Jonah and her have always struggled with money and lived in rather poor conditions, they've led a mostly happy life and have stayed together despite all the odds and the predictions of their neighbours.

Jonah Powers

Jonah lived life at college as if there were no consequences - and then he found himself having to deal with them! He's struggled to hold down a job, hopping through various career paths. He had an excellent relationship with his son Arran though, determined to be a good role model (although his neighbours may disagree on this!) He and Roxie live a life that many others look down on, but really they don't care and live to enjoy life.

Randy Powers

Once Arran had grown up and moved out, Roxie and Jonah decided to use their spare room to foster children in need and Randy is their current foster-child. He's a quite shy and quiet boy, unlike his foster parents, who was originally from the city Madison Central and placed into foster care when his single mother got ill and could no longer care for him. Randy is enjoying living out in the country now surrounded by open spaces and lakes. He gets on really well with Roxie who is now retired and spends lots of time with him.

Powers family background 1

Starfield Shack

The shack from the road. The whole lot is usually in a state because Roxie and Jonah are very messy and have little time for clearing up. The lean-to on the side was added when Arran was born.

 The living room and kitchen as it is currently.

 The master bedroom which is incredibly small!

The only bathroom - again very small.

Randy's room. This hasn't been redecorated properly since Arran was a child - hence the old space theme wallpaper. Through his teen years Arran added all of the posters, and Roxie and Jonah haven't redecorated the room since he moved out. Randy doesn't mind at the moment, although I get the feeling that as he settles into the family, he'll start decorating the room himself to his own tastes, possibly with some artwork. =)

The overhead shot. The whole house has been redecorated since the couple first moved in, but apart from the lean-to extension, they haven't done much actual remodelling.

 The front 'garden' including the pond that Jonah loves to fish in.

the back of the house is where Jonah parks his truck.
