Bugger. That makes my backstory rather... wrong. I'm gonna have to reassess and see if I can make it fit.
Yeah that's fine!Would it be acceptable for me to just sorta... start fresh and make another noble with a similar back story but generally younger?
It's still happening! Sorry for going AWOL I stopped receiving notifications in my email so I thought people lost interest. I'm going to give it another day or so but by Saturday I plan to have the thread up so we can start role playing.
Feel free to join! I only just put up the IC thread :)Are you still taking characters or no?

View attachment 34056
Sexuality: Straight
Social Class: Riches/Princess
Background:
As being the youngest of her siblings, the great wall between the rich and poor was closed before she was born. Clara has never known any life outside the wall, but that wasn't what was trapping her.
At the tender age 4, her father placed an order. She was to not be allowed out of the castle. With the fighting, murder, and jealousy running thick in the air of the nobles, he deemed it unsafe for her out in the city with her condition. Clara had been born weaker and more frail than most. Her fighting abilities were at none, and with that disadvantage, the king worried endlessly about the safety of his precious daughter.
Clara spent most of her youth tutored and reading. She would read stories of mystic lands, and beautiful seas. It was her hearts one desire to see such in person. Though seeing as it was unlikely, she started small. The princess began to ask her brother Issaiah about the commoners she had heard the servants speak about. He told her endless stories of how they were suffering and fighting, yet no nobles cared. As the tales went on, she began to care for and pity those living in the outside city. Determined, she vowed that one day she would help them and free them from their suffering. Her brother would laugh every time the young 14 year old would say such, and respond that the gates would open no time soon.
At 16, Clara met a girl named Yasmine. The girl was visiting the castle on her family's business, and when she came a second time, she spent the day with Clara. She saw Yasmine's caring toward others and instantly saw her as a mentor of sorts. Though caring, the older girl held no care to commoners, something Clara cared the most of. For every week after that day, Yasmine would visit the princess. Over the course of 2 years though, Clara spent so much time with the girl that she began to develop traits becoming of her.
Clara turned very caring and sweet towards her family and nobles, but pushed the thought of commoners to the back of her mind. No longer were the tales her brother spun great and daring. All was replaced with a noble life. Until the fateful day of the announcement. At the mention of the gates opening, a flood of emotions took her by storm. Clara pushed them to the side, vowing to deal with it when the time comes.
Personality:
Clara is a kind soul, her life in solitude being a reason for. She learned to appreciate all people, for some did not have anyone. Kindness and caring was all she bestowed upon the few people she talked to in the castle. Her being the youngest daughter had made her a daddy's girl, him still seeing her as a little girl. She would not speak it to anyone, but the princess was lonely. The life in the castle held little visitors with all the feuding, and no adventures. The life she lived was quiet, and she grew to be quiet along with it. Never would she tell a soul of her troubles. Clara tried to keep a happy image to please Father. With most of his sons either very harsh or very rash, she was the peace in the storm.
Strengths:
•Very kind and caring to most nobles, and deep within her, she cares very much about the commoners.
•Intelligent and imaginative. Her whole life was spent tutoring and reading.
Weaknesses:
•She can be very naive and too trustworthy. Willing to take friendship from anyone is a trait that will come back to bite her.
•Her body is weaker than most. She cannot fight, nor do anything strenuous.
Appearance:
Clara is a short young girl, only 5'4 in height. Her body is very lithe, her weakness causing most of the thinness. She often wears dress of very flowing material, not liking the tightness of a corset. They are usually white, or pale shades of pink or purple. She either goes barefoot or wears flat slippers.
