Persona

Personality:

Fleur lives in the present and associates her actions with how she feels about something and holds nothing back. She is ordinarily straightforward and incisive with her criticisms of others; she will tell people what she thinks of them and may struggle to empathize with their views if she can’t make sense of why.

She doesn’t gratify everyone smoothly,  but others can count on her to make her thoughts public, communicating who she is and what she expects from those around her. She is both very easy and very hard to work with, quite intimidating in appearance and in tone. She is known to be a very demanding movie actress.

But Fleur is also pretty self-aware and makes a habit to scrutinize what effect she has on certain individuals, what are the consequences of her actions, and her overall demeanor.  After all, if she doesn’t make self-analyzation a practice, then she would have to kiss her profession goodbye.

This proves she isn’t as detached as she seems, in fact, when she isn’t with a large crowd of people she will practically transform from an elegant, graceful, incredibly rehearsed diva to a deadpan, playful, sarcastic and semi-chaotic homebody. It’s a night and day difference that she strives to keep separate.

Her sophisticated persona, her posh accent — entirely feigned and reserved for the eyes of the public fall off and reveal an informality that is peppered with slang and misplaced sensuality; a queenly posture that melts into a surprising crumpled lump on the floor. She becomes a normal, everyday person with moments of genuine happiness, sadness, extreme anger.



History:

Her parents had a somewhat perfect relationship. When the two were a few centuries younger, they were predictable childhood sweethearts, destined to love each other forever and ever.  From their timeless romance, sprouted three wonderful children, and the eldest of the three, Fleur, was the quietest of them all.   She was an obedient little fairy, very responsible, and quite devoted to her religious beliefs. She was, along with her siblings, the pride and joy of their small family. But then she started having interests outside of what her family wanted for her.  Her safe, beautiful routine would seem boring, almost fruitless the instant she laid eyes on a most masterful, outdoor performance -- a sort of makeshift play-- that colored her world more than any flower she ever held in her hands. She was young, but not too young to understand, to know that she wanted in on this sort of life. When she approached her siblings, her mother and father with this magical experience; they were accepting and made light of it.

Fleur took it a step further as she made friends with these traveling artists, and decided she wanted to tag along too. Naturally, put off by the small fairy’s request, the talented team of actors turned her down. She wouldn’t take no for an answer, certainly. Whenever they passed through her patch of the world, she would nab every possible second of their time to ask for their acceptance. She wanted to act, too! They dodged her, she followed -- a rinse and repeat every year until one day she earned from them a very tired ‘yes’.

Quick to leave her family behind, they weren’t positively thrilled with the idea of their daughter traveling so far from home to follow a rather silly dream that would most likely blow up in her fairy face. Many adventures were to be had with such an eccentric group, and with them, she met people, that would befriend her and ruin her. Such experiences were needed in order to grow and she did. She was small-time in the mainland, gradually gaining momentum and getting *some* recognition for her dazzling performances. She had a natural flair for outdoor theatre! But then she got a thought so daring and suggested they bring their dramatic presentations to Rivengate.  That seemed to mark the end of her life as an artist as they shunned both the idea and her.
Grieving, sensitive, and alone; Fleur set out to do what she believed was beneficial to her goal. Stepping into Rivengate was like stepping into purgatory, everything was unfamiliar, sounds she’d never heard in her life buzzing through her ears, but there was an opportunity in this haystack of madness.

Decades later, thanks to the dedication, the stubbornness, and that spine of steel -- she made it as a type-casted movie actress (always the villainess role), though she was less optimistic and a little more jaded than when she got to the land of technology pink-nosed and puffy-eyed.


Likes:
Ƹ̵̡Ӝ̵̨̄Ʒ Her dead butterfly collection.
Ƹ̵̡Ӝ̵̨̄Ʒ Imitating sounds from nature. It's one of her quirkiest hobbies and she does it disturbingly well.
Ƹ̵̡Ӝ̵̨̄Ʒ Ad-libbing in acting.
Ƹ̵̡Ӝ̵̨̄Ʒ Likes technology, particularly when it comes to cinematic production. She still doesn't understand everything that goes on, but she appreciates it, unlike the folks back home.
Ƹ̵̡Ӝ̵̨̄Ʒ Never breaking character for a role she's been assigned until her work is done.
Ƹ̵̡Ӝ̵̨̄Ʒ Getting a rise out of people if they deserve it.
Ƹ̵̡Ӝ̵̨̄Ʒ She loves her beautiful wings. They are nearly as red as her eyes and resemble that of a butterfly’s wing.


Dislikes:
Ƹ̵̡Ӝ̵̨̄Ʒ Technology is something she appreciates. It also plagues her with tremendous guilt as it is a great source of disdain for her family and even goes against some of her beliefs.
Ƹ̵̡Ӝ̵̨̄Ʒ Recalling the letter she received some years ago of how she shamed her family by moving to Rivengate. Of all places to follow her dream. She hasn't seen her family since.
Ƹ̵̡Ӝ̵̨̄Ʒ Crying. She does this frequently as she is secretly a very depressed woman. She can never stop once she starts.
Ƹ̵̡Ӝ̵̨̄Ʒ If she is around children that have seen at least one movie with her in it, it secretly hurts Fleur when they show fear and start crying in her presence. She does like children.
Ƹ̵̡Ӝ̵̨̄Ʒ She gets self-conscious when she meets a very traditional Gaiyan, automatically assuming they have the same mindset as her parents if they were ever made aware of how she disgraced her family.

Goal/Aspiration:
Ƹ̵̡Ӝ̵̨̄Ʒ To land a protagonist role. She is tired of being cast as the villainess or the insanely jealous lover.
Ƹ̵̡Ӝ̵̨̄Ʒ To make peace with her sadness.

Key Fear/Adversary: What do they fear, alternately what works against them?
Ƹ̵̡Ӝ̵̨̄Ʒ Never patching things up with her family.
Ƹ̵̡Ӝ̵̨̄Ʒ Anytime she interacts with an extremely judgmental Gaiyan that knows of her dealings in Rivengate.
Ƹ̵̡Ӝ̵̨̄Ʒ Never being able to act again.
