Character Played By (the person in your avatar): Alexis Blede
Name: Antoinette du Nantes
Title: Comtesse
Age: 19
Race (Lineage Origin): d'Angeline
Gender: Female
Height: 5'2"
Home Province/Country: Eisande
Appearance (1-2 Paragraphs): Short, slim and willowy with smooth, creamy skin, Antoinette has slender legs and high, shapely breasts over a flat stomach that are just a perfect handfull, not too small but not too large as to overpower her slight frame. Her sandy blonde hair falls into her sharp grey eyes, which are usually shining with happiness and compassion. Her nose is pert, her lips pleasantly full and her smile is easy and sweet with straight, white teeth. She moves with grace and surety. Her voice is calm and gentle-- soothing, really-- and she has never had to raise her voice.
Personality (1-2 Paragraphs): Antoinette, called Toni by those who know her personally, is kind and compassionate to a fault, always looking for the best way to help and expecting nothing in return. She is friendly and sweet to everyone she comes in contact with, and is never rude or hurtful. However, she can become quite feisty if she is insulted or feels she has been slighted.
History (At least 2 detailed Paragraphs):Born the only child to the Comte du Nantes, Antoinette's mother died from complications shortly after she was born. Her father was always depressed after that and, much to her dismay, grew withdrawn after the death of her mother. She later learned that her father blamed her for the death of her mother, something that still hurts her deeply to this day. The Comte had considered sending her to Balm House to foster but, as she was his only child and the only living reminder of his wife's beauty, as she was the exact image of her mother, he was loathe to let the only living reminder of her beauty go.
Soon enough, his despair became too great and Antoinette found her father in his study. He had fallen upon his sword. In the note he left, in his own handwriting, he wrote that although he loved his daughter, he could not bear another second without his beloved wife and so was going to join her in the great Terre d'Ange-that-lies-beyond. Antoinette felt guilt like nothing she'd ever known, and knew that it was time to go into the City. She was now Comtesse du Nantes, and it was time to take responsibility where her father had let it slip through his fingers. Having gotten her estate up to order, she now is traveling into the City of Elua, to her late father's townhome and oversee the family accounts.
