Name: Rosanna de Beauchamp
Age: 22
Gender: female
Height: 5'3"
Weight: 110
Race: D’Angeline (Anael/Elua)
Home province: L'Angace
Appearance: Petite and slightly curvy, with deep chestnut colored hair that has a slight natural curl. Round, blue green eyes and a lovely set of dimples when she smiles, which is often. A heart shaped face is graced by cupid bow lips, marked by a slight scar on the right upper lip. As far as clothing goes, her favorite colors lean toward slightly smoky hues, dusty blues and a lovely plum-beige.
Personality: She loves to laugh, and for that reason, is often sought out when people need to be cheered up. She has been told she is a good listener, but she doesn't look at herself in quite that way. Nor does she quite think of herself as pretty or beautiful.
History: Born to one of the lesser peers, her father was the son of a Chevalier and an adept of Dahlia House. Her life began in a small family home in L'Agnace, and she spent most of her childhood in the country. Her mother, who had been raised in one of the temples dedicated to Elua, died while giving birth to a younger sister, taking the babe with her to the grave. Rosanna was only 6, so she has hardly any memory of her mother. She and her siter both received a good education, thanks to her father's insistance they do as their mother would have wished. Rosanna took more interest in managing the household than her older sister, Corrine, who enjoyed learning languages and hearing stories of other places. When Corrine went off to Marsilikos to be married, Rosanna was glad, but she mourned the loss of the closeness they had felt. They still visit often, but things had, of necessity, changed. At the age of 17, Rosanna came to the city of Elua for one of the very few times she can recall, and took residence in a small house with her aging father. In the 5 years since, Rosanna has taken to city life with aplomb.
A little over a year ago, Rosanna's only sibling, Corrine, followed in their mother's footsteps, dying while giving birth to her first child. The child turned out to have been deformed, so it was likely a blessing the poor thing died. Rosanna and her father both went into deep mourning, and his health, which had been on the mend, took a bad turn for the worse. Now Rosanna spends as much of her time caring for him as her business, and her father, will allow.
