Katherine Morealis

[Katherine Morealis]

Katherine Morealis Basic Information Full name: Katherine Lillian Morealis Race: Human Gender: Female Age: 20 years old Date of Birth: Fall 72, 493 AV Place of Birth: Kenash Height: 5'8" Weight: 120 pounds Current Residence: Morealis Blacksugar Plantation, Kenash Languages FLUENT in Common (95/100) CONVERSATIONAL in Pavi (50/100) POOR in Vani (25/100) Appearance Katherine may be considered an attractive young woman by most who see her up close. However, whether the upper class’s female populace will readily agree to this is still up for debate. The young Morealis looks and acts every bit of a lady her stature. Her movements and speech are refined, her posture poised and proud. She is always up-to-date with the latest fashion trends, and will never be seen in anything but silk and finery. She is quite slender but is not too thin to be considered unsightly. Simply put, Katherine has the right curves in the right places, and she knows how to dress to accentuate her assets without appearing immodest. Even though already blessed with pleasing features, Katherine would rarely go out without makeup. Her eyes, framed by long dark lashes, are a cold, piercing blue. Her skin is soft, smooth, and, like her mother’s, a brilliant shade of dewy ivory. She takes pride in her lush cinnamon hair. If not let down into flowing waves to the small of her back, it would be styled to match her chosen look. Character Concept Charming, polite, high-cultured and well-mannered. Upon seeing Katherine, this is what one can immediately see from the young woman, exactly what a proper Morealis lady should be. However, all of this is just a facade and what lies underneath the pleasant exterior is not as pure as Katherine would like others to think. Jealous, scheming, selfish, proud and haughty… these are only a few words describing this woman’s true nature. It may be a result of overindulgence on her parents’ part, but Katherine does not take kindly to having what she wanted kept away from her. She will have what she wants and she will do anything just to reach her lofty goals, even if she has to ruin people’s lives in the process. Very highly competitive, Katherine only desires to be the best among the best and despises people who are better than her. Cruel and manipulative streaks are not uncommon on those she deem lower than her, but she does try to rein in this side of her if it might bring her into a compromising situation. As a result, only those closest to her and those that have already borne witness to her anger know of the darker side of Katherine’s personality. This doesn’t mean, however, that Katherine is incapable of showing genuine affection to people besides herself. If a person does not pose too much of a threat to ruffle her feathers, Katherine can offer her own kind of affection, only it’s often misinterpreted as her still being the bitch that she is. Be careful not to get too much ahead of her though, as Katherine will turn on a “friend” faster than they can even bat an eye at her. Character History Born into a life of luxury, Katherine grew up always having her way around her parents. If she wanted something, her parents will buy it for her, and if she wanted to play her older brother would be right there to keep her company; she knew he loved her too much and will do anything she wanted. From a young age, Katherine had already felt her family’s influence in the people of Kenash and she basked in it. She was content, confident that such a life will continue as the title of Head of Household is passed to her father Remosh. It would ultimately be hers. After all, her father will choose her as his successor over a handicapped older brother. However, such a day had not come. Her father had relinquished the role and let his second brother, Dimitri, take over the family instead. Obviously Katherine had flown into a rage over this. She had begged her father to reconsider time and time again, but a decision has already been made. Up to this day, Katherine still resents her father for the perceived weakness. But she knew there was not much to be done about his reluctance to the position and thus has decided to take matters into her own hands. Ever since that day Katherine had hated both of her uncles for even existing, and in her mind she had already played different ways of destroying them. She tries to keep in good terms with them, particularly the current head, in hopes that he’ll see her huge potential and pass the baton to her instead of his future children. On the other hand, she does not make much effort to show the same amount of respect for Rowan, even going as far as expressing her distaste for the man in the subtlest way she could manage. Since then, she had become more driven than ever, pushing herself to do better than her peers. The spoiled little lady had blossomed into a selfish and ambition-driven woman. In order to prove her worth to everyone, she decided to pull her own weight in the family instead of just spending her time sitting pretty and waiting for a man to marry her. In fact, Katherine dreads being married off into another family only to end up a trophy wife and a high class breeding stock. She started a business producing cosmetics for the elite of Kenash, catering to the elite class’ constant need of maintaining a desirable image. Her studies in developing high-quality makeup has currently taken most of her attention away from plotting her enemies’ downfall, but she can definitely wait. Everything will fall into place as she waits for the perfect moment to strike. She knows she will have it all soon.

The interior of her room conveys a sense of softness and nuance, with whispers of shell pink and the flashes of lilac showcasing a feminine flair in a beautifully restrained way. Billowy curtains are often pulled back and the windows opened to let the warm sunlight and the cool breeze in. Katherine very much likes keeping her room neat and cozy. Her suite is her private sanctuary where a young lady can relax after a hard day of work in a man’s world, hinting at the inner femininity of its occupant.
