Name: Geneviève Alice Delacour. Her family called her "Alice" as a child, but her brother and some of her cousins took to teasing her about being like Alice in Wonderland due to her coloring and the fact that her mom always made her wear headbands, so she decided she didn't want to be called Alice anymore, and now insists on Geneviève. She goes by Geneviève or "Ginna" at school.

She is very careful and particular when alone, and enjoys organizing her belongings and making sure everything is neat. She enjoys reading, but prefers fantasy fiction over schoolbooks. Sensitive to the emotions of others, and to animals, Ginna is kind and gentle. If she gets into trouble, she tends to disappear or hide instead of dealing the the problem directly.

Short Roleplay: ((I write hugely varied lengths, depending on the situation and thread. This is an IC letter I wrote awhile ago for one of my characters.))
To the Honorable Duke Tyreal of Benoithe,
My esteemed grace, I would like to present my request for my daughter Damara to journey to the castle and take up the quest toward knighthood. My wife and I have not taken up this decision lightly, and we wished we could train our daughter into a proper noble lady, but we feel she would be constrained in that sort of position, should we have tried to bend her in that direction.
Damara is a smart lass and strong, although sometimes a bit slow at her tasks. Her dallying has been a source of trouble for me, although I have attempted to raise her with a strong hand. She is not yet twelve, and my wife is a bit soft on her, so I am certain plain discipline would straighten her up to be a proper knight. Damara is forever getting dirty and scraped, so I doubt she would fare well as a proper lady or a mage.
Lest you wonder about my daughter's resolve, Damara has wanted to be a knight since a wee lass of four, when we visited Corus and went to the Great Tournament of Lilies. She runs around sparring on sticks with her younger brother Damon, who I am sure will follow her footsteps to Corus in two years when he is of age to do so. Even our swordmaster has said she shows promise with a sword, and we hope that as a knight she will prove us proud. Our riding master has trained her well, and her pony Aluicius will attend her to the palace.
According to our village herb woman, Damara does show some magical talent, although it is not very strong. She seems to have a knack for small enchantments, and herbs and potions as well. The herb woman has been teaching her to magnify her potions with spells. She seems to have little talent for the arcane arts, however, but we hope her small magic talent will be nonetheless useful. Her mother would have liked her to follow her footsteps in the magical arts, but Anara's health and Damara's lack of talent have prevented that. As a commoner, she would be acceptable as a village herb woman, but it is less proper for one of the nobility.
Please uphold my apologies at not attending court more often since we are so close to the border of Tyra. My wife's health is not much improved, and I hesitate to leave her alone. Damara has been a great help, and I will miss her dearly, but I know that I entrust her to good hands. In two years time I will send Damon along as well, as he shows no magic talent at all.
With greatest respect,
Leon, Earl of Alencia
