Personal Questions
1. Describe your character's personality:
Cilla is very niave and trusting. She has a big heart and sees the good in everyone, but to a fault, she often overlooks the bad in people. Where others may see the bad / evil side of a person, she recognizes their good side, or makes an excuse for their behavior. (example: A man commits murder. Others see him as a cold hearted murderer. In her mind, the person was probably abused as a child and has followed the wrong path in life due to that)
Her willingness to help others has gotten her into trouble before, and I'm sure will again. She's not a smartass, but is fairly witty.
She's modest. She knows she isn't ugly, but doesn't realize how beautiful she really is or how mesmerizing her eyes are.
2. Describe how your character would appear to a stranger (I.E. typical dress, way they carry themselves etc.):
Very ordinary. She blends in with a crowd easily enough, her eyes are her attention getter as they are very big and hold her heart in them. Jeans and a comfy t-shirt are her clothes of choice, throw in some slip on sandals and she's a happy camper.
3.What does your character like?
-Animals. She LOVES animals beyond most anything else, mainly wild animals. She often daydreams she is an eagle soaring in the sky, wonders what it would be like to feel the air on her feathers. Other times she may be a leopard, walking silently through the forest on padded paws, the mouse scurrying from hole to hole within a house, watching people from the safety of the walls, an owl breathing in the night air, able to see each movemet on the ground from the sky, a wolf running through the forest with her pack, smelling the air for any information available.
-Traveling. She inherted money from her father upon his passing and has since been traveling the world abroad.
-Nature. She loves nature and would spend every second outside marveling in it and watching wildlife if she could.
-People. She also loves people and is very interested in everyones life and the story they have to tell. She could sit and listen to anyone ramble on about their life, she sees each person as a book she has yet to read.
4. Dislike?
Rude people. Animal neglect.
5. (For humans) Describe what abilities you see your character having if they were turned.
Savage savant
Pyschometry
6. What are your fears?
Total loss of control of her life.

7. What is your character's strengths and weaknesses?
Her strengths are her loyalty and trusting nature. Which is also her weakness. She doesn't see the evil side of people and beleives with enough trust and love anyone can be a good person, no matter of their true nature.
She does very well with animals, even wild animals. It's almost uncanny the way she can approach animals with no fear and the way animals react to her as well, with trust for her.
Hobbies & Skills
Quirks and Habits worthy of mention:
Cilla tends to talk to herself alot. Not in the multiple personality way though. She comments on things to herself such as the price of food or the cuteness of a puppy walking along the other side of the street. Small day to day things.
Since she has started traveling, she has picked up small words here and there from the languages she has learned. She tends to use many different languages in her day to day talk ( making it hard for most people to pinpoint her origin ), though English is her prominent tounge.
Personal History (Please be detailed, this creates your basis for your character)
Priscilla was born into money, but had very strict parents who beleived in working for what you got. So, although her parents where well-off, she still had to work hard around their house, get jobs when she was old enough, etc. At the age of 13, Priscilla started working for her father in his bookstore. There she discovered different worlds through the books. She was able to travel to Egypt, Syria, Avalon, Heavan, Hell, America, and so many other places with the turn of a page. This is when she discovered her love for all animals. Cilla had always had a way with animals, able to approach wild wolves without startling them, holding her arm out and a bird would land on her outstretched arm. People said she had a gift with animals, she looked at it as, not only a gift, but a blessing.
Within the books, she studied animals and their behavior. At night as she lay in bed, she would call out to the animals in the forest around her house and wait for their response. Some nights she was answered with a howl from a wolf or hoot from an owl, other nights, the animals remained silent.
When she was 17 her Mother passed away and left her and her father alone. She tended to the house as her mom had taught her. She enjoyed cooking for her father and they made due for 6 months. Six months after her mothers death though, her father passed away as well. His final words to her, "Ma petit Cilla, live life with happiness in your heart and a smile upon your face. Do this for me, ma petite." Tears welled up in her eyes, she kissed her fathers forehead and promised him, "Papa, my life will be full of happiness with memories of Mamma and you. Visit me from time to time Papa. I love you." Her father closed his eyes and breathed his last breath.
That night she walked to the field by her home and sat in the grass. She heard another thunder storm approaching, but paid it no mind. Twisting the blades of grass within her fingers, Cilla was aware of something watching her. Looking up, she seen a white wolf on the edge of the forest staring at her. Slowly and carefully the beauty of a wolf slinked to Cilla and sat beside her quietly. Tears forming in her eyes again, she looked back down at the ground. The wolf gave a lonesome sorrowful howl to the sky echoing what Cilla felt inside.
After her fathers passing, she found out just how well her parents had done over the years. While some may not consider her rich, $500,000 was very rich to her. So, she kept her promise true and started to live life as she wanted it, happy. She has traveled across each continent, taking books with her, reading things and learning about all the places. She has never been attatched to anyone, her fears of them dying and leaving her, as her parents had, is too strong in her mind. She knows she is better off alone, where no one can hurt her by leaving.
For eleven years the black haired beauty has traveled across the world, soaking in everything she can. She is now ready to rest, and has found herself here, in Natchon City.
