Avril Shahrizai

[Avril Shahrizai (I)]

Name: Avril Shahrizai
Age: 25
Weight: 127
Height: 5'10"
Hair: black
Eyes: Shahrizai blue
Province: Kusheth
Race: d’Angeline

Appearance:
She had the classic Shahrizai coloring, thanks to her parents, and her complexion is clear and pale. She's a few inches taller than average, and has a pleasant form, again, thanks to her Shahrizai blood. Her mouth is perhaps a bit wide, but her lips are full and soft. As far as clothing goes, she prefers to wear colors that are sharp, stark and clear. White, black, navy blue, red and shocking pink, hollyberry red, emerald and evergreen, royal blue, magenta and violet all work well, as well as icy tones.

Personality: Shahrizai. That words pretty much says it all. Avril, however, also has a strong creative streak, and can often be seen sitting with her small portable desk in her lap, bent over it as she writes her poetry.

History:
Born the middle child, and only daughter, of the joining of two of the lesser branches of the Shahrizai family, she was raised in their country home in Kusheth. With one older brother, and one younger, she has very little expectation of ever inheriting more than a small townhouse, so her parents indulged her creative streak, allowing her the freedom to write poetry. This was the one thing she did with zeal, and though her mother might still despair over the ink stains on Avril's fingers, both of her parents are glad thier daughter is so happy.

Avril was fairly happy as a child, though she often found herself beleaguered by her brothers. She was never that ambitious, except when she discovered that she could let out the words that were bottled in her head, by putting them down on paper. As with most Shahrizai, her education was complete, including the sensual arts that all Shahrizai are taught. This was the one other aspect of her education that Avril definitely took to, and when she purchased her own house, she sat up an extensive dungeon.

Avril has spent most of the past several years splitting her time between her country home, and a townhouse in the City. She adores spending time in the City, since it gives her more privacy. Besides working on her poetry, she spends a good amount of time with her extensive family, and one of her favorite cousins is Sarielle, since they are the same age.

About a year and a half ago, Avril's family had to move permanently to the City of Elua, when their country home burned down. The true cause was never discovered, but suspicions are strong that one of the servants got a little frisky, and accidentally set the place on fire. Since her parents now inhabit the family townhouse, Avril has purchased one of her own, and sat up house there.
