I'VE ONLY ALLOTTED SO MUCH

----------------------------------------------------- time to make you stunning

PLAY-BY Thylane Blondeau
HEIGHT 4'8
WEIGHT The number of her weight would be incredibly low, probably around 66 lbs, but not to where she's anorexic, she just has a tiny tummy, that small deer-like frame like all young, healthy children inhabit. She's not afraid to fill her belly, Not as a human, and certainly not as a vampire, though growing would be something she'd love to be able to do.
HAIR Long bronze-ish hair that stems to the small of her back, stopping short and choppy.
EYES Her once green, now crimson eyes sparkle when she's in a good mood, and can seem incredibly dark when she's angry, she wears contacts over them when she goes out with her family, though.
FEATURE Her bronze hair is hard to miss, but her plush lips keep it in line with her skin tone, so if she'd have to pick, it'd be her hair that's her main and favorite feature..
STYLE She wears dresses mainly, and her small frame makes even the tightest of them flow because of her lack of curves. She hates tight clothing anyway, and those seemingly girly things like skirts and such are her thing. Her legs need the room to move, and as long as she's free, she's golden.

YOU AND ME. THAT'S THE ONLY

--------- thing that matters. the only thing you're allowed to think about now.

LIKES Reading
Writing
Drawing
Dancing
Candy and chocolate - She misses it. A lot. She hadn't got much of it as a child, and now she wishes that it still has that same old appealing taste in her vampire mouth.
Mostly all animals
Her siblings
Shane
DISLIKES Close-minded people
Animal blood - She's tried it, and she really did want to be a vegetarian... But It just didn't work with her.
Not having something to do
How easily distracted she is
Not being able to concentrate
When John flips through the channels
Mishca - Not extreme hatred. It's just... Mishca scares her.
Being told to sit down
Being told what to do
Messing up
STRENGTHS Sneak attacks
Channeling her Claircognizance
Always has something to say
Stays calm in the most hectic of situations
WEAKNESSES Easily distracted
Her small frame, and weak defenses
She over looks the worst in people. She can't help it, she just doesn't believe anyone would want to harm her, especially when she's around Shane.
DREAMS One thing she'd love would be to grow up. There's so many disadvantages to looking so small, she just wishes she could grow older, that Paul and Lucy never found her and changed her.
She also wishes she had her memories of being a human. She wants to remember what it was like being just a little kid. She remembers minor things, like food and such, but she wishes she had the school experiences, everything.
GOALS Though she's sure this will never happen; To ween herself off of human blood and stick to the vegetarian diet. She's not in favor of stealing the lives of innocent humans, and she'd rather drink the animals. If only they tasted a little better.
She's been badgering Timothy about going to school. She wants to learn, more than anything. She has a small feeling her dream was to become a scientist of some sort when she was human.
OVERALL How would you explain such a girl? She's... Rebellious yet sweet. Maybe that's a little harsh on the rebellious part. How about... She's sweet and sharp. Like a bittersweet candy that you just can't take out of your mouth. Loyal, courageous, yet there's that sharp edge to her that people just try to avoid. At least, most people try anyway. She certainly isn't sly or cunning, no, April is a sweetheart. She may be the cutest and sweetest person a vampire has ever met. However, this is just the top layer of her deep personality. She wants more than anything to grow. She carries on her happy and pleasant facade because she knows she must keep herself sane. She does go as far as having temper tantrums, but someone would have to work her up pretty good for one of these to occur. She normally seems very shy and modest. She doesn’t easily make friends and thus, has none. She is quiet and stays in the background, hardly going noticed by others.

April likes not being noticed but at the same time she doesn’t. "Growing up" she didn’t live around any kids her age and thus never learned to socialize with them. It is difficult for her to walk with someone the first few times she does, not knowing what to say or how to act. It takes a while for someone to break through her shy and closed shell but when you do she can be a blast. However, she is a completely different person when you get to know her. She is a very sarcastic person and loves teasing her friends. As well, it is easy for her friends to tell when she is joking, for other’s it’s not always the same. When it’s just you and her she can be a lot of fun, especially for a vampire. She is very good at thinking of interesting things to do and fun ways to do boring tasks.

YOU COULD RUN FROM SOMEONE

-------- you feared, you could try to fight someone you hated.

HOMETOWN Port Angeles
RESIDENCE Forks, Washington.
MOTHER Mishca Hennigar-Aindris, 175, policewoman. Mishca scares April a little, though she'd never admit that because of Shane looking so up to her.
FATHER Timothy Aindris, 181, policeman. Timothy is the only one in her coven that doesn't annoy April, and to be honest they've never really... Talked.
SIBLINGS Grace Hennigar-Aindris, 134. Mishca's birth daughter, and April's coven sister, even after 54 years living with her, she's not sure what in the world to make of her.
John Aindris, 100. John's the classic brother-in-law; in his human life, he claims to have been a model, and well, April can't help but scoff every time he brings out that inflated ego of his. Still, he's her brother.
RELATIVES Lucy & Paul, abductors - supposed parents, age n/a. April always had weird feelings about her "parents", especially after being told she'd been a vampire her whole life. She'd never thought that was possible, and she'd had doubts about these people from the start. It wasn't surprising when they were burned to ashes.
PETS N/A
OTHER HALF Mate/BF
Shane Aindris, physically 13; mentally 120, together for 45 years.
HISTORY The happy family image April's family held didn't last for a very long time -- in fact, April doesn't remember her mother and father, just the numbing pain of her transformation from human to vampire. Everything before that was blank. It was vampires who tore her from her mother and father. She was twelve years old at the time. The date was April 14. The happy parents took their daughter out to a movie to celebrate her thirteenth birthday. She was positively enthralled by movies, her over protective mother didn't take her out much, so this was a treat. However, a vampire couple spotted the little girl. They sought out a child; for vampires couldn't give birth. Finding her to their liking, the female grabbed the child from behind who was squeezed between her parents, and the male took care of her mother and father. It was brutal. Once her mom realized April was gone, she barely had time to distress over her missing daughter. her dad knew what was going on faster than her. He knew the man wasn't human at all. He threw himself in front of her in a feeble attempt to protect his wife. The vampire broke his neck with a flick of the wrist and then drank a screaming woman's blood. Meanwhile, Lucy, the vampire who abducted her new daughter, sired her. Paul, her husband, joined them later.

The first thing April wanted after the the last stings of pain left her new body was blood. She had no memory of her human life and Paul and Lucy told her that she was always a vampire and that they were her parents, her gift, as they discovered it was Claircognizance, was merely a plus, though later down the road, the couple planned on exploiting it. She new there was something off about this, she was an observant child when she was human. Now that she had new senses, she didn't miss much at all. She wasn't with them for four months before her second parents were taken from her. Apparently, they belonged to a coven previous meeting the young girl. They wanted to create a child but the coven master forbid it. So they left, leaving the coven without two members, and weak link because of the huge shock. Little twelve year old April came back from hunting to find Lucy and Paul's place burned to the ground. She turned to the forest and made shelter in a cave during the day and at night she hunted. That was, until she met Shane.

Shane had, at first, surprised her. He appeared in front of one of her hideouts one night, and though she knew better than to think he was human, she was fooled for a minute. The boy was carrying a carcass, one that could have been one of her late suppers, and yet, he wasn't going insane like she normally did herself around the bloody scent that now filled that cave. The look in his eyes was... Twisted. There wasn't another or proper word for it. The boy tilted his head, and the moment he bared his teeth April was gone. He looked younger than she was, not by much, but she did figure if it came down to a battle, her size advantage would win. She was nowhere near on the right track, underestimating him like that. Shane followed her in fast pursuit, carcass tossed aside as he chased after the girl. It wasn't until she had lost all hope had April stopped. She turned around, teeth bared, sitting in a poor excuse for a pouncing stance, her delicate little dress pitifully covered in mud and her feet bare. Shane didn't back down, only lunged at her and pinned the bigger child to the ground. "Much to learn." He had hissed and picked the struggling vampire up with one arm. She didn't remember when she had surrendered, but it was somewhere into when both her legs were ripped off her body.

He took her back to an abandoned warehouse somewhere off to the side of the cloudy little town of Forks, Washington, where he gave her a sort of orientation of her world, the fact it might be dangerous for them to venture around in fear of being mistaken for Immortal Children, but it was ridiculous that she was hiding in the mountains when she could learn to fight off that urge for blood. Honestly and truthfully, she didn't believe him at first, that was until he showed her. For weeks they stayed in the little rundown shed, until her eyes had dimmed down to a dark red, and Shane believed she was ready for the shock of being in a coven. He packed up a couple things for her, made her put in contacts, and they took a bus out to Lynnwood, Washington. Shane had, of course, gotten in contact with his coven that he had found a young vampire, but they still freaked out when the two came walking in to the big house. April remembers the big place in the middle of the woods; It was big, huge, and intimidating. She was afraid what they all would make of her, how they all would react. There were two parent figures, real ones, nothing like Paul and Lucy, and their names were Timothy and Mishca Aindris, and then she had siblings, they were named Grace -They had a fit when they learned they had the same names, even if it was only April's middle one- and John. The toast was too a good forever after that night, and Mishca was the only skeptical one about April.

They'd moved around so many times, for so many years, never settling on one particular place. You could always hear John and Timothy in the living room. "Romania's nice." "Yes, yes, we get it, you're granddaughters in Romania, but Washington..." "How about Russia?" "Do you speak Russian?" "Do you speak Romanian?" They'd go back and forth like that. Shane was the one that got them to settle on Forks for now, since he felt April was being tossed and turned. They'd built up something more than a friendship while they traveled with their coven.

SOURCE Caution 2.0

RP SAMPLE Hunter didn't know what to think as she made her way into the make shift camp. You left for a year and everything was different, everything changed. You left for a year, and suddenly Gaea had taken over everything you knew or held close to heart. She wasn't sure what led her here, but as always, she followed the small pull in her stomach, doing what felt right, what her mind and gut told her was right. She was sure from the site of the place that there had to be people there, not just any run down Airspace Station was cleaned up and groomed as well as this when left to die naturally like this she imagined had been. Leaning on a tree, she took a deep breath before continuing through the grassy clearing.

It wasn't easy being in the mortal world, so inexperienced and young, but she had made it with the help of only her wits. Everything she took in as she walked into the big field edged itself into her mind, taking up another gigabyte in her never ending memory storage. There was several run down planes that made the young girl wonder if any of them belonged to camp itself. She still wasn't sure what anyone would make of her when they saw her walk into the camp, uninvited. It had been so long since she'd last seen everyone now, and after lurking around the original camp, she knew a battle had been issued by the fact that it was completely trashed and destroyed, and Gaea had taken refuge there, so she didn't even know if her friends were still alive.

It may have been incorrect to say Gaea had taken refuge in her old home. Judging by the rest of what she knew, it was more like Gaea had taken over the hopeless place, and now camp was the one taking refuge. It was quiet depressing really, to admit that they were all in hiding, but it was the truth and nothing but. But there was still hope, they could probably get out of this alive, right? She had gotten out of many thing alive in the mortal world. But it wasn't just subtle that he was a complete and utter wreck. It wasn't just her clothes that were torn, her face and arms upheld many scars and burns just by themselves. Her lip was also bruised, a bright purple and blue.
