Andrea Sands is an orphan of the Ionia slave plantations and part of the same gang that Oliver Sands is in. She tends to be the more level-headed one of the group, preferring caution to risk and often is the one that will play devil's advocate.

Andrea is thin to the point of slightly malnourished, though that's normal for anyone with Sands as a last name. She's got a mop of curly blond hair, high cheek bones framing flat gray eyes, a strong jaw, and sunken cheeks.

Like most, this isn't the first gang she's been in, but it is the longest. She carries issues from a prior gang that was claimed by a purge, leaving her the only survivor. She is highly antagonistic, especially against anyone she feels is acting in a way that might jeopardize the gang.

She and Oliver often get in fights, as Oliver is impulsive and tends to have a more optimistic approach to…well, everything. Despite their contentious relationship, Andrea often goes out of the way for Oliver, something that has spurred rumors amongst the rest of their group.
