Rachel, sometimes known by her username Redearth, is a main character in Redearth88. She is a teenage girl, about the same age as Maddison, who just finished her first college year, majoring in communications. She started videoblogging as an assignment, and later met Linc in the park.

She and Linc went on a date, but things started to fall out when Rachel met Linc's cousin (whom Linc said he had been filming in the park). Linc's cousin had no idea what Rachel was talking about.

Rachel has an ex-boyfriend named Jordan. He was in a band, but Rachel broke up with him when he caught him sleeping with another girl. She went to a clinic to get the results of an STD test, at which point a mysterious figure entered the room, which Linc rescued her from. The origins of this figure have yet to be discovered.

Rachel was missing in action after Linc's video Worth The Wait?, in which she vanishes in a tunnel and Linc is abducted by OpAphid herself.

However, on October 13th Rachel uploaded the video Where Does The Time Go?, in which she explains that as soon as Linc had his back turned she hightailed it out of the tunnel and decided to return home to east Texas to her grandfather's place. Whether this is true, or if fake memories were implanted by OpAphid is unconfirmed.

Rachel also confirmed that her professor making her vlog in the first place was Dr. Arscott seemingly confirming that she is from Nacogdoches and attends school with Clara.

Later, she reveals that she received a call from her former boss, offering her old job back. She is contemplating taking the offer considering she can't afford the apartment she is in. She considers getting a roommate but reveals she had the "worst possible dormmate" in college last year and so is concerned. On top of all that, she has picked up the wrong suitcase at the airport, accidently switching it with someone named Aly Zarin, who she says "totally sounds like a Russian heiress or something".

In her next video, she explained that Aly Zarin had retrieved her suitcase and is actually "pretty cool". Aly had just gotten a long-term gig in Los Angeles and was looking to move out of her brother's apartment, as she and her brother's wife were not getting along. So Rachel decides to let Aly move in with her. Aly pays Rachel first and last month's rent "no strings attached", although she does ask if Rachel has any puppets.

Rachel's next two videos discussed how well things were going with Aly and lead into discussion of Rachel's old roomate Zoey, whom she didn't get along with...to put it lightly. Rachel also mentions a dinner party being thrown by "my boss and his wife", which Aly is going to help her pick out clothes for.

The next few Rachel videos documented the results of picking out the clothes for the party. Rachel is disturbed by the fact that Aly seemed to only pick out revealing attire and was very focused on watching Rachel as she tried on clothes. This makes Rachel question whether she wants to live with Aly anymore. This thought is reversed in Rachel's next vlog, in which she discusses why she reacted so harshly and questions her own sexuality. In About Last Night, Rachel discussed her revelations that Aly is not gay. Rachel relates how she felt embarassed about misreading Aly's possible sexuality.
