Maura Sparks D1

To describe Maura in one word is easy. Dazzling. She radiates beauty like the sun. Her dirty blonde hair falls past her chest, and is always curled into tight ringlets. It’s already naturally curly, so there’s not much effort in it. Her electric blue eyes glow with curiosity and intensity. Maura’s perfectly shaped eyebrows fit like puzzle pieces over the oval shape of her eyes. Her lips are almost always upturned in a slight smile.

Maura has a tiny figure, even with living in District One. She’s not one of those girls that have no body shape, though. Her hips are curvy, but her stomach is flat, making her look skinnier than she is. All of this doesn’t mean that you should consider her weak though. She has tons of strength, just waiting to be used in the battlefield or the arena. She doesn't want it to come to that, though.

Maura only wears the highest class clothes. She will never shop anywhere like a thrift store. All her clothes are tight fitting, but make her look sexier, so she likes them. All her jewelry is made only from the highest kind of metals. Most of her earrings are pure diamonds, and that’s not including her necklaces and bracelets. Her hands are always manicured with French tips. Her skin is always soft and smells like her favorite scent of lotion, sweet pea.

At first, Maura’s a snob. Really. Her first impression of you will be her impression of you for life. Basically, if you’re not pretty and/or rich, she’ll ignore you. You won’t exist, at least not to her. Better to act rich and never let the truth emerge than not have her as a friend at all. Because trust me, having her as a friend has its perks.

But it’s bad to judge Maura on a first impression basis. At first, she will seem snooty, rude, and conceited. But that’s not really her. If you happen to have the honor to befriend her, she’s actually a really nice, sweet girl. She loves all her friends, and would die for any one of them.

Maura is a flirt. Plain and simple. If you’re a guy, and Maura flirts with you, don’t get all excited with it. She does it to lots of guy every day. You’re nothing special. You’ll probably never have a chance with her. Probably. Anything’s possible though, right?

Maura does not enjoy getting into fights. As much as she may seem eager to pummel you to a pulp, or threatens to make you part of the concrete, she doesn’t really mean it. Or rather, she won’t do it herself. She might send one of her stronger accomplices, but that probably won’t happen, either. She doesn’t like inflicting pain on anyone or anything. Because she doesn’t enjoy when pain is inflicted on her, emotional or physical.

Being from District One, Maura’s life been easy-peasy. Her mother owns her own jewelry shop, turning beautiful gems into any accessory imaginable. Her father runs his own grocery store. Both of these shops bring in a lot of cash for their family. With all the extra cash floating around, Maura can afford to buy expensive clothing and accessories.

Maura has two little brothers, Derren, who is 12 and Charlemagne, who is 14. She adores Derren, but has a love/hate relationship with Char. He gets on her nerves all the time, and he is constantly asking for her opinion on things. Clothes, hair styles, girls, anything you can think of, he asks her opinion for. She loves Char and all, but Maura really thinks that he should make decisions on his own, and not off the opinions of his 16-year-old sister.

Derren is a little angel, to Maura. He brings her gifts, gives her all the attention she wants, and gives her a shoulder to cry on when she needs it. And in return, Maura does the same. Derren especially loves caramel drizzled chocolate, which the candy store doesn’t often make. She has to pay extra for them to make her a private batch for him.

Maura actually had a third sibling, a sister named Maia. She died when she was three, and Maura was ten. Maia died when she was abducted, and the Peacekeepers found her body in an alleyway a week later, emaciated and filthy. She had been abused, judging by the wounds and bruises plastered all over her body. That’s why she hates causing pain on anybody, because of Maia. They still haven’t ofund out who did all those horrible things to her.The news of Maia’s death rocked Maura’s world, and she went into a kind of daze for many months. Never striking up a conversation, and never being her usual self. She has since recovered, but when the topic comes up, she seems to block off the whole conversation.
