Spencer Hastings




Spencer Hastings is considered the "de facto head" of the group. Intelligent and extremely ambitious, she thrives for perfectionism in everything she does, in an attempt to live up to the high expectations of her parents. Spencer's biggest rival is her older sister, Melissa, and the two are constantly at odds. Their relationship is often strained by the fact that Spencer has a habit of crushing on, and later kissing, Melissa's boyfriends (first Ian, then Wren). She is the closest with Aria although she got along with the others as well.
Although they were close friends, Spencer resented Alison, who constantly threatened to reveal to Melissa that Spencer kissed Ian. The two of them often argued, as Spencer was the only one of the girls who was willing to stand up to Alison. On the night of Alison's disappearance, Spencer told Alison that they were done being friends, and that she was tired of being treated like Alison's property. However, it was Spencer who went looking for Alison when she heard Alison scream.
Wren and Spencer have a brief affair, which is cut short when Melissa discovers it and dumps Wren. Spencer later begins a relationship with Alex, a boy who works at Rosewood's exclusive country club, though a misunderstanding leads to Alex dumping her. Although initially suspicious of Toby, believing him to be A and possibly Alison's killer, Spencer begins to bond with Toby after she becomes his French tutor and is also framed by A. The two begin to date, against the wishes of their parents. Soon after, Wren returns to Rosewood as a resident at the local hospital, which causes Spencer great emotional confusion. A later forces Spencer to break up with Toby, after revealing that it is the only way to keep Toby safe.
A frames Spencer for Alison's murder, by planting evidence in Spencer's house. She also causes many problems for Spencer's romantic relationships, such as getting Alex to dump Spencer and forcing Spencer to break up with Toby. In addition to this, A feeds into Spencer's suspicions towards Ian and plays upon her rocky relationship with Melissa, in order to cause a rift between Spencer and the rest of her family.
Spencer discovers that Jason her half-brother; she is furious with her parents, believing they betrayed her by keeping it a secret. Spencer later gets drunk and kisses Wren, although he gently turns her down. Spencer attempts to reconcile with Toby, who refuses to speak to her or let her back into his life. However, after Mona's arrest, Dr. Sullivan reveals that it was Toby who convinced her to come back to Rosewood. Toby explains to Spencer that he pretended not to love her to keep them both safe, and the two kiss, reunited.

Emily Fields






Emily Fields is the "jock" of the group. A highly competitive swimmer, she is considered the star of Rosewood's swim team. Sweet and shy, she is also a lesbian, something that she takes great pains to hide for a long time. Although her parents initially struggle with her being gay, they eventually come to accept her for who she is. After Emily's mother moves to Texas for a while to be with her father (who is in the Army, stationed in Fort Hood, Texas), Emily goes to live with Hanna.
Of the four girls, Emily was the one who had the closest relationship with Alison, whom she was in love with. Although Alison frequently mocks Emily's romantic feelings towards her, she also professes a fondness for Emily, telling her that Emily is the only one who understands her and that Emily is her "favorite". Alison appears after Emily passes out from carbon monoxide poisoning, telling Emily that she knows A's identity, but is afraid Emily will be killed if she reveals it. It is unclear if Alison's appearance was a hallucination or reality.
Emm is immediately attracted to her new next-door neighbor, Maya, and they begin seeing each other. However, their relationship is broken up by Emily's mother, who disapproves and has Maya sent away when she discovers marijuana in her purse. When Emily returns to the swim team after a short leave of absence, she becomes rivals with Paige, who has taken Emily's place as being the best swimmer. She confronts Paige about Paige's homophobia, only to discover that Paige is secretly gay herself (been trying to suppress her feelings for Emily that whole time). The two slowly reconcile and begin to date, though Emily breaks up with Paige, not wanting to be her "secret". In the second season, Emily starts dating Samara, whom she meets through a LGBTQ group, though she is dumped after a misunderstanding caused by A. Shortly after, Maya returns to Rosewood, sparking Emily's hope of renewing their relationship.
A singles her out as the "weakest link", forcing Emily to make up a lie about getting a college scholarship for swimming and tormenting her emotionally and physically, putting her under enormous pressure, which leads to Emily developing a stomach ulcer which is caused by stress. A also secretly dosed Emily with HGH, by putting it in Emily's body cream which she had been using frequently, which ends up on her medical record and destroys her chances of being able get a scholarship.
Emily reunites with Maya, but their new relationship is shaky. When Maya disappears, Emily is distraught, believing Maya has run away to California to stay with some friends. However, it is revealed in the second season finale that Maya has been murdered (presumably by A or another accomplice), her body is found behind the DiLaurentis house. Emily breaks down at the news, inconsolable.

Hanna Marin



Hanna Marin is the "diva" of the group, having taken Alison's place as the most popular girl at Rosewood in Alison's absence. Prior to Alison's death, Hanna was a bulimic girl who Alison frequently mocked for being overweight. Hanna often purges, as a way to make herself feel better.
Hanna's parents are divorced; she lives with her mother and feels betrayed by her father, who has remarried. Hanna does not get along well with her father's new wife and daughter, the latter with whom she has a rivalry. After experiencing financial hardship, Hanna's mother steals thousands of dollars from the bank she works at, which Hanna accidentally discovers and is forced to keep a secret.
Hanna's best friend before the series is Mona Vanderwaal; after Alison's disappearance, the two transformed themselves from losers to the most popular girls in school. Though Alison was one of Hanna's closest friends, Hanna expresses relief at Alison being dead, having been hurt so often by Alison, and seeing how Alison hurt everyone else. At the start of the show, Hanna was dating Sean, who she had crushed on for a long time, however, they break up as Hanna becomes more focused on the mystery surrounding A and Alison's killer. She later becomes close to Rosewood's resident bad boy, Caleb, and the two begin to date, with Hanna subsequently losing her virginity to Caleb. Although Hanna dumps him after she discovers Caleb was working for Jenna, the two later rekindle their relationship. Hanna is also friends with Lucas, who harbors an unrequited crush on her.
A frequently torments Hanna with taunts about her weight, and threatens to reveal her mother's theft from the bank. A also ran Hanna down with a car, after claiming that Hanna "knew too much"; the accident left Hanna with a broken leg and ribs. Hanna ruined her father's wedding to Isabel but didn't stop the marriage because Ashley tells her that Tom still married Isabel in a private ceremony. Hanna finds out from Tom that Kate will be attending Rosewood because he is moving back to Rosewood to be closer to her along with Isabel and Kate.
In the second season finale we learn that Hanna's best friend is A (Mona Vanderwall) who is played by Janel Parrish. Hanna is devastated and cannot bear the fact that Mona tormented her and her friends. Mona is later in a mental institution for the torment.

Aria Montgomery


Aria Montgomery is considered the "alternative" one of the group. She is more outgoing in fashion and what she sees as acceptable behavior. She moves back to Rosewood with her family after living in Iceland for a year. Before Alison's death, she and Alison discovered that Aria's father was having an affair with one of his former students, Meredith, who became his coworker at Hollis College. Alison encourages Aria to tell her mother the truth, but instead, Aria reluctantly agrees to keep her father's secret. In the book, Aria's brother Mike blames Aria for their parents' problems. In the TV series, he does not completely blame her, but still has psychological problems stemming from this. Mike's problems escalate until he attacks their mom. By the middle of Season 2, Mike appears to be doing better.
Considered the most artistic one of the group, Aria also tends to be the most outgoing of the girls. Her interest in being a writer is what really attracts her to Ezra Fitz upon their first meeting in a bar. She is unaware that Ezra is a teacher at Rosewood High School. Despite their attempts to stay away from each other once they realize their student-teacher relationship, they eventually give in to their Aria confesses to the girls that she is seeing Ezra, shocking them, but not.
Out of all the girls in Alison's old clique, Aria is the most secretive, rarely getting help dealing with her issues. Her crush on Noel was encouraged by Alison; the two later briefly dated, but their relationship was ended after Noel attempted to blackmail Ezra after discovering that he was dating Aria. When Jason comes back to Rosewood, Aria feels herself drawn to him and becomes conflicted between her feelings for Jason and Ezra. Ezra's ex-fiance, Jackie, also comes to Rosewood; Aria, jealous, attempts to push her out of Ezra's life once and for all.
A has tormented Aria the least out of the four girls, though A does expose Aria's father's affair and attempts to ruin Aria's relationships with both Hanna and Ezra after blackmailing Hanna into trying to set up Aria's mother so that she will discover Aria and Ezra are dating. Aria breaks up with Ezra because of Jackie threatening to tell Byron about their relationship and getting him fired, but they get back together. Once Ezra finds out that Jackie was the reason why Aria broke up with him, he asks her if she still trusts him, leading them to telling Byron and Ella about their relationship. This leads to Ezra getting punched by Mike. It is later told that Mike was sorry about what he did, and tells Aria that he only punched Ezra for fear of what their father would have done if he had not. Aria later tries to explain to Byron and Ella that she loves Ezra and he loves her, but they understandably still disapprove. But when Aria's old classmate Holden comes back to Rosewood, Aria tricks Ella and Byron into thinking that she and Holden are planning to go out. Aria later tells Ella that she and Byron may have gotten Ezra to leave Rosewood but they lost their daughter, too. She is shocked when Ella shows up at Ezra's apartment asking them to explain to her how their relationship "works".

Alison DiLaurentis





Alison DiLaurentis was the "queen bee" of Rosewood and the leader of her clique.. Ruling the group with an iron fist, the vicious but charismatic Ali went missing during a slumber party at the end of summer. When Aria, Hanna, Spencer, and Emily begin receiving threatening messages from "A" a year after Ali goes missing, they think she is alive and is playing a trick on them. However, shortly after the appearance of "A", Alison's body is found buried in the backyard of the former DiLaurentis house, hidden under the gazebo (which had been under construction at the time of her disappearance). The discovery of her body launches a murder investigation. The police believe Alison was killed by a blow to the head (with a shovel), but the girls later learn, via Alison's autopsy report, that she actually suffocated to death by being buried alive.
It is revealed through flashbacks and clues sent by "A" that numerous people in Rosewood would have had motive to kill her. Alison was aware of all of the girls' deepest secrets: Spencer kissing Ian (her sister, Melissa's, boyfriend at the time), Aria's dad's affair with a student, Hanna's bulimia, and Emily's homosexuality (and her crush on Alison herself). She was also responsible for blinding Jenna, by setting off a fire cracker in Toby's shed with the girls with her; Ali blackmailed Toby into taking the blame by threatening to reveal that Toby and Jenna were engaged in a sexual affair (though it's later revealed that Jenna was blackmailing Toby into sleeping with her). Before her death, Alison had also been secretly dating Ian and being stalked by an unknown person who threatened to torture her the way she tortured everyone in Rosewood. It is revealed in the Halloween prequel in Alison's room that Alison has a secret twin (In the scene where she gets the voodoo doll, on the wall to the right, they surround Jason).
