Another Alpha Schoolgirl, I suppose, vile to non-Alphas (although what is Lawrie, a Beta Schoolgirl? An astonishingly babyish flake who happens to be a brilliant actress, and also good at games, so at times is an Alpha?) and edgy around other Alphas - her relations with Miranda and Nicola are always interesting (as when N caves in to singing solo in the carol concert, because she can't prevail against the combined efforts of the two other Alphas) and her choice of Lawrie over Nicola as a friend.
Actually - reading over the above, I make Kingscote sound like a silverback gorilla sanctuary. But Forest is terribly interested in the various facets of charisma and popularity and pecking orders, and people who opt in or out. Part of why Jan Scott is interesting is that she has everything necessary to be Queen of the Sixth Form, but refuses to play, which only adds to her charisma.
