Name: Aurelia
Race: Human
Occupation: Everybody’s pet.
Real Age: Unknown
Apparent Age: 14
Height: 5'6"
Weight: 105 lbs
Appearance:
The girl is covered with a fine length of straight black hair that reaches her mid-back. While it can't be perfectly clean from the luxury of showering every day, she brushes it often (sometimes she tends to be a little OCD about it). Her eyes are a deep golden colour, which match quite nicely with her darker than normal skin (like an olive colour, which would be somewhat abnormal because everyone is living underground where sunlight doesn't affect skin colour). She's fairly tall for her age, and would be quite attractive if not for the fact that she's a bit on the skinny-waif side. There's no fat, but thin, toned muscles on her body. While she's not normally seen by most, she dresses in old clothes that she finds and is particular to a tattered baggy black shirt with the words "We choose the life we live" written on the front and a pair of really old, warn jeans shorts. Here feet and hands are very calloused and do not feel much beyond a surface. Sometimes she'll leave from Alzis's mansion weak and pale with a tiny mark on her arm, but she quickly recovers.
History:
At seven years of age, the child ran away from her abusive parents. One night they were fighting, talking about how the lizard people deserved rights. Her father beat her mother to resolve the argument that continued on forever. The girl ran into the streets and away from the city. Just anywhere else. She became exhausted and collapsed in the fifth sector. She lived there for years, learning how to avoid most of society, fight those who trespassed nearby and making good of their remains, and adapting by living in a secluded cave that remained a faithful shelter. Unfortunately for her, a cave-in demolished her home. She unable to salvage anything but the sharp piece of metal that sufficed for a fine knife. Wondering about, she found no pity from the townspeople and was spit upon. Stephen Alzis must have been feeling generous when she collapsed in front of his door, covered in her own blood, sweat, and tears. She was kept hidden from public in a very small shack behind the mansion. Alzis had taken it upon himself to give her shelter and a real name instead of the one her wretched birth parents had bestowed. He called her Aurelia, greek for golden, because her blood was of the purest gold (which was likely a mutation of some sort from the radiation). But, of course, nothing could be hidden from everyone in a small district like this. A rumor was being spread throughout the market place that that little brat was someone that Alzis cared for. So she was able to get food when she needed (she wasn’t hungry very often) because quite a few of the owners wanted favors from the man who had decided to give her another chance.
Personality:
She's very paranoid and cautious around others, except for Stephen Alzis. He seems to have a very calming personality to her, and she looks up to him as she would a real older brother or mentor. Her general opinion of people, no matter the race, is that they are selfish, slow creatures who think only about themeselves and their poor children. She's a bit of a fanatic, trying to find a reality in which she’s happy through her rose coloured glasses. Unfortunately, the world can be such a cruel place, and rather than face the obscene in life, she likes to avoid it and keep to herself.
