Her evening wear is showier, often with flowing dresses and silk that flatter her lean frame, for these occasions she wears dresses of deep purple or green, with gemstone jewellery to match, indeed she has rhinestones embedded in many of her occasion gowns
Personality: Elizabeth is a rather polite, good natured person around those in court and others who she does not know well, and does her best not to offend anyone in positions of power. She enjoys company, but does not mind spending time by herself, for she is a bookworm at heart, and spends many hours when not at court in her fathers library reading, making her well read and smart. It is this knowledge and her quick wittedness which helps her stay in favor at court, gaining friends in high places. But they popularity she gains with her personality gains her enemies as well, and she is not afraid to stand against them, although she does so far more subtly than her opponents.
Beliefs – personal and political: Elizabeth believes that most changes are for the greater good, however, she does not agree with using military methods to initiate change, believing that the way to a better country is through peace. She is not a very religious person, although attends church with her family on Sundays.

Fears: Elizabeth has a great fear of spiders and heights.
Likes: She likes horse riding, reading and is an adept singer
Dislikes: War, and a bad book
Quirks: When she is reading, she hates to be disturbed until she has either finished a chapter, or the book itself, and often becomes irritable when disturbed. It is also incredibly hard to draw her attention from her book whilst reading.
Inventory: Elizabeth owns an amethyst pendant which belonged to her great grandmother, and she holds it dear to her heart
Strengths: She is strong at recalling facts, and has an excellent memory. She is also determined and quick witted
Weaknesses: She is a feminist and therefore is disliked by many chauvinist men and is called outspoken when she voices her opinion on the matter.
Goal: Elizabeth strives to make an impact on the world through influencing the court, drawing peoples minds away from war and on the path to peace
Family: Mother: Selene Gray Father: John Gray Sister: Bethany Gray Great Grandmother: Jane Gray (deceased)
Lover: none. Elizabeth is single, although her family is searching for prospective husbands
Familiar/Pet: Mischief, a 2 year old kitten, all black apart from 2 white socks on his front paws
Word Verification: Ambition
History: Elizabeth Gray grew up at Althehall with her mother and father. During her childhood she had a governess, who from the age of five taught her the ways of the nobility, and how to act like one. Elizabeth enjoyed these lessons and looked forward to becoming a lady and entering court, thanks to the extravagant stories of her governess. However, she was uncommon in her class, because of her passion for riding, a sport that was dominated by men, and women competitors being frowned upon. However her perseverance led her to become adept at it. When she entered court, she was a little overwhelmed, but in a short period she became accustomed to the court life, and came to enjoy the games involved with remaining in favour, and gaining popularity.
Writing Sample: Sandri stalked along the rooftops, following her target with accuracy and practice, jumping the gaps between the houses like she was born to, her specially made shoes, making no sound at all. Seeing her hit turn into a building on the opposite side of the road, she drops down on to the fire escape and climbs down the ladder. Walking casually across the street, so as not to attract attention, she opens the gate to the house, and walks around the back. Finding a suitable tree, she climbs it and waits for the lights in the house to be switched off. When they eventually are, Sandri slips quietly from the branches and heads to the back door. She pulls out her lock picks and gets to work on. When finished she places the set back in her coat pocket, and gently pushes the door open…
Constance Larkin « Result #4 on Aug 4, 2007, 11:40am »
Full Name: Constance Irina Larkin
Age: 16
Gender: Female
Date of Birth: October 13
Place of Birth: London, at a midwife's house
Residence: Langston Manor
Class: Former commoner--noble now(OOC--I think. She's a lady-in-waiting to the queen, I can't be positive on what class that is.)
Title/rank: Lady-in-waiting, Lady Constance
Alignment: Neutral
Occupation: lady-in-waiting to Queen Cecile
Appearance: Constance is tall and slender, but has curves. She's very fit, since she doesn't like to be confined and tends to get a good amount of exercise. Her skin is pale, but not in a sickly manner. She has wavy red hair that falls past her shoulders--she tends to keep it loose, despite court fashions--and large green eyes with long, smoky lashes.
Her face is angular, and less soft than most of the ladies at court, since it often has a look of pride and defiance upon it. She has a full mouth, and arched eyebrows.
Attire: Constance tends to wear clothes that flatter her figure, without looking like someone's mistress. She tends to go for class, but often makes her own clothes. She gravitates towards dressy clothing, and her favorite colors are silver, red, midnight blue, and black. For special occasions, she wears jewelry like rings and such, but always wears a necklace with a single onyx stone. Her dresses tend to have tights sleeves, as well as a close-fitting bodice, with a skirt that flows out, often opening upon an underskirt of satin.
Personality: Constance seems like an introvert upon first glance, but she definitely isn't. She's proud, but not overly haughty, and hates it when people look down upon her since she wasn't of noble birth. She feels like she constantly has something to prove, and is always doing it. There's a defiant streak in her, and she is a bit mistrustful of men. She's waiting for one to be serious and capture her heart.
Constance is not like most girls, in that she isn't especially demure, but doesn't go towards the other extreme either--very *friendly* personty. She keeps class as a priority, but isn't afraid to take a risk and go after what she wants. If she dislikes someone, she'll scheme and trick them, bringing about their downfall.
Beliefs – personal and political: Constance is pretty progressive, especially with the fact that she believes that women should be able to choose their own husbands. Her morals are high, but if she falls in love or hates someone, she'll do just about anything to acheive her goals. One thing that she can not stand is the harming of a child, for certain reasons.
Fears: Constance fears some men to a certain extent, which is why she's so mistrustful. She's also deathly afraid of water. Her biggest fear, however, is being heartbroken. She also dislikes women who while go with any man.
Likes: Constance likes horseback riding and sneaking out of the castle to do what she wants. She likes flirting to to a certain extent, and enjoys playing hard-to-get. Defiance is a favorite of hers.
Dislikes: Constance dislikes snobs and people who look down upon commoners. She also dislikes women who while go with any man.
Quirks: Constance hates it when people try to take a task away from her, even when it's clear that she can't do it. She's very 'anything you can do I can do better'.
Inventory: Constance owns an onyx necklace that she holds as her amulet. She believes it has power to protect her.
Strengths: Constance is excellent at reading and writing, especially considering that she's a woman. She's strong, since she spent most of her years working. Her intelligence and wit is not something people expect, and she's good at debating her away out of things.
Weaknesses: Constance is horrible at math, and, as previously stated, can not swim whatsoever. She also has a weakness for certain types of men.
Goal: Constance is truly striving to find a way out of a possible arranged marriage. She wants to prove to everyone that she is smart and can take care of herself--but she also wants to truly fall in love,
Family: Father: Jonothan, relatively wealthy farmer, commoner Mother: Lydia, Commoner Brother: Lukas, farmer/commoner Sister: Lorelai, lady-in-waiting to a German queen Uncle: Lord Charles Langston, wealthy businessman and noble.
Lover: Her father is trying to find a good man to marry her off to, unsuccessful so far. This part may change in the future.
Familiar/Pet: Nyx, a female black cat. This worries some people, but the animal is clearly normal.
Word Verification: Ambition
History: Constance was born to a relatively wealthy farmer, but a commoner. Everyone always thought it would be impossible to find someone who would marry a girl of such low rank. However, her mother's brother, Charles, was a noble, and he had connections. He loved his two nieces, so when Constance was twelve and her sister was ten, they went to the German court. However, Constance decided to come back to England at 16, and is now in the English court.
Writing Sample:
(May make a second character, writing this anyway.) "This is so boring, Nyx," Constance muttered, stitching her old gown and stroking the cat who sat next to her. "Hopefully Uncle Charles will send me some more funds so that I won't have to spend all my time mending."
Frankly, it was embarrassing as well to do this. It showed that she was only fresh from being a commoner. Would she ever get out of that phase? Who knew.
