YOU THINK YOU'RE HOT STUFF[/b][/size]
OH, I LOVE IT, I LOVE IT
----------------------------------------------------
the basics[/center][/font][/blockquote]
[/b] Adelaide Louise Astor
FULL NAME
NICKNAMES[/b] Addie
AGE[/b] 16
BIRTHDAY[/b] February 25th, 1993
GROUP[/b] High School
OCCUPATION[/b] German Exchange Student
GRADE[/b] Junior
SEXUALITY[/b] Straight
MARITAL STATUS[/b] Single[/size][/font][/blockquote]
----------------------------------------------------
[/font]OH, YEA, YOU'RE STUMBLING[/b][/size]
BUT YOU'RE STILL LOOKING HELLA FINE
----------------------------------------------------
the appearance[/center][/font]
[/b] Her eyes are black, but not scary and beady. They're warm and funloving, and shine with knowledge and humanity. Adelaide's lashes are of a moderate length. Makeup doesn't interest her, but she will tend to wear mascara from time to time.
EYE DETAILS
HAIR DETAILS[/b] Adelaide has shoulder-length, ungodly straight brunette hair. No matter how hard she tries, it will never hold a curl or even a wave. It's her natural color, and Addie's never really had the desire to dye it or highlight it.
BODY TYPE[/b] Addie isn't too skinny or too plump. She's of a healthy weight and doesn't have many curves. Adelaide has a moderate bosom and she doesn't usually attempt to flaunt it.
DISTINGUISHING FEATURES[/b] For one, Addie isn't Asian like the rest of the students at the schools. She's a German exchange student, and she occasionally slips into an accent. There are a few light freckles spread out over her cheeks and nose. Adelaide's ears are pierced, but she hardly ever wears earrings unless she needs them to add a final touch to her look. During her minute rebellious phase when she was thirteen, she got a homemade tattoo of a heart on the skin between her left index finger and her left thumb.
STYLE[/b] Being a bit of a tomboy, Addie doesn't dress up too much and tends to strut around in worn, graffitied converse, skinny jeans, and a tank top or two. Adelaide wouldn't be caught dead in a skirt unless she was being paid half a million dollars.

OVERALL PERSONALITY[/b] [/blockquote]
Yeah, Addie's that girl that you find hanging out with the guys. She's not usually found anywhere else; they usually accept her faster than any of the pompous little girls would. Tomboy? Hell yes she is, and she enjoys it too. It makes her feel like she's special. Overall, Adelaide's got an above average relationship with her sister, but what Gretch doesn't really know is that Addie totally hates her damn personality. Why worry about her crazy-ass sister? She's the only one Addie feels comfortable with no matter what. Even her adopted parents back in Germany make her feel awkward occasionally, but never Gretchen. Addie's been reading manga ever since she learned her right from her left and she prefers it in the original style, and even knows a tiny bit of Japanese. Drawing isn't really her thing, but she can put out a nice manga sketch now and then. What really gets her going is music. Adelaide had a lesson or two in piano back in Berlin, and the girl knows how to sing but she's not always on key. She can get sassy when she doesn't get what she wants, and once the sassy pants are on they don't tend to come off for awhile. Best thing to do when she's in a bad mood is to avoid her, especially if you had any sort of input in the mess that set Addie off.[/size][/font]
Being in front of crowds makes her get her blush on. Speech? Oral report? Class debate? You're in for a royal flush with Addie. She gets nervous and extremely self-concious when everyones' attention is focused on her and only her. When she's with just a few people, Adelaide's the bubbly one that makes everyone listen and laugh. Normally she's overly sarcastic, and usually doesn't give a very good impression. For her, the second impression someone gets of her is better than anything. Addie likes to stay fit by going for the occasional swim at a local pool now and then. Being alone doesn't really bother her, but maybe that's because she's been alone a lot throughout her life or because she knows someone will miss her eventually. She's usually pretty optimistic and tries to be positive even in the darkest of times.

the history[/center][/font]
[/b] Aliona and Gregor Astor - Birth parents unknown.
PARENTS
SIBLINGS[/b] Gretchen Astor
OTHER FAMILY[/b] Her adopted mother is the only girl in a family full of boys (uncles for Addie). Gregor has a few sisters (aunts), and his parents are still alive. Adelaide has never met her grandparents.
SIGNIFICANT OTHER[/b] None at the moment. The only one that's really significant to her here in Tokyo is Gretch.
WEALTH STATUS[/b] Definitely not poor, that's for sure. Her adopted mother's family owns nearly every textile mill in Germany, and Addie has never really had to work for something she wanted except for her grades.
HOMETOWN[/b] Raised in Berlin, Germany, she was born in Liverpool, England.
OVERALL HISTORY[/b] [/blockquote]
So yeah, Addie was adopted. When? Why, she happened to be about two years old. The Astor family found her in an orphanage in England somewhere when they were traveling about. She doesn't remember anything about her life before coming to Germany. From the start, she was a brilliant kid. School got more challenging as she aged, but Adelaide learned quickly and eagerly. At one point in her life, the fun-loving and carefree part ended. Adelaide found out that she was adopted, and she seemed to break and become fragile. She felt unloved, and she was hurt. Gretchen helped her come through this period of pain, and Addie was back to her normal self.[/size][/font]
Then, Gretchen got expelled from the private school the sisters attended and was sent to a public school. Addie was alone. At the academy alone, she grew more independent and was introduced to many things including anime, manga, and Japanese culture. Adelaide became interested in each of these things. Eventually she discovered the school here in Tokyo, and began to formulate a plan to, along with her sister, become a foreign exchange student. Her parents' first reaction to her proposal was a refusal, but Addie's persistence made them change their minds. And, here she is now.
