Alerae Simian -Capitol-

Alerae is about average in height, standing a 5'6". Her form is actually quite athletic for someone who would seem to spend her time whiling away the hours doing nothing. She has an slightly inverted triangle shaped face, featuring a large forehead and a narrower jaw ending in a slightly jutting chin. Her cheekbones are higher on her face, and perk out like small apples when she smiles. Her teeth are clean and relatively straight, though she does have a slight overbite. Dimples form on both sides of her mouth, her lips a little thin though the upper lip is thinner than the lower. wide nostrils narrow to a cute stubbed nose, the bridge straight and curved inwards just a bit.

She has oval shaped eyes with slight tapering on either side. The coloration is a lovely hazel, rich brown around her pupils fading out to a yellow-green color on the outside of her iris. Her eyebrows match the curve of her eye, tapering to a point at her nose, and widening slightly on the other end. Alerae's natural hair is solid black, but the coloring is a little dull and doesn't have much shine to it. She wears it long, ending just under the lower edge of her shoulderblades, but it waves when dry, so sits about an inch shorter. Style-wise can be all over the map, suiting whatever the latest trend is.

The rest of her body is somewhat plain. She bears wider shoulders and average length arms, though her hands are on the small side with dainty fingers. Traveling downward, her body forms a gentle pear shape. She bears a narrower chest with small, though well-formed breasts. Her waist and stomach is trim, widening into curved hips and a round, firm rear. Her thighs are fuller, to better fit her child-bearing hips. She ends in longer than average legs, leading down to average sized feet.

Alerae is a stickler for cleanliness, and likes to make sure she is always prim and proper. She almost always wears skirts or dresses, and rarely wears trousers unless the situation merits it. She favors bright colors, and monocrome color schemes, so is usually clad in various shades of the same color. Her hair is worn down, though she will wear a band around her forehead to keep it out of her eyes if she needs to concentrate. When in a formal situation, she is seen in elegant pulled back hairstyles. She LOVES to bathe, and will at least once a day. Although if she does something particularly dirty, she will bathe multiple times a day. She is always one for the latest Capitol fashion, however, and will include that in her daily wardrobe.

Alerae likes to see herself as quite a proper lady. She cares about her appearance greatly, avoiding things like stepping in mud or risking getting herself messy. She takes on an affected way of talking, speaking in a very formal matter. She enunciates clearly, and occasionally speaks in third person without realizing it. Along with this, she can have a bit of a 'better than thou' attitude when dealing with someone who has been mean or rude to her in the past, or if they are someone she has deemed unsophisticated. She also loves to be in the spotlight, and while she doesn't conciously seek it, she throws a small hissy fit if it appears she is being ignored.

On the other hand, she shows herself to be tough and resourceful in dealing with problems. She also isn't above getting her hands dirty when it comes to helping her friends. She is willing to sacrifice her appearance to help someone in need, as she knows that this is more important. She will put a friends opinion before one of her own. Honestly, she just wants to make sure the others are happy. While she doesn't have any real skills other than being a halfway decent seamstress, she will do everything in her power to help them out.
Unfortunately, she can become too focused on certain tasks to the exclusion of all others, which can lead to her losing a grasp on the bigger picture. She has a strong attention to detail regarding her assigned tasks and will not rest until she has satisfied herself that the result is up to par. She never rushes tasks and duties assigned to her, as she feels if she rushes she simply won't get it done right. She is also very generous with her time, always willing to help out a friend however she can, even if it something she normally wouldn't do.

One of her biggest downfalls is her lack of self confidence. While she can play it off most of the time, she doesn't take criticism well. She had a fondness for the over dramatic, with outburst of tears of tears if someone does something to put her down, or loud complaints when she feels she is in the right of an argument. She also despairs of ever finding someone who will love her and want to be with her. She took the news of hor former lover's marriage badly, and now thinks that she is doomed to never have that kind of true love ever again. When it comes to relationships, she doesn't really have any. Sure, she will share a bed if she finds someone who needs the physical comfort a lover brings, but she doesnt actively seek any relationships. More than anything else, she wants that Prince Charming, the ideal mate who loves her for her and will come and sweep her off her feet.

Alerae's vocabulary is relatively formal, and she is prone to use complex words and more sophisticated, refined phrasing. She also has a tendency to call everyone "darling" or "dearie" regardless of how well she knows the person. She adores sophistication, and prefers the company of those who are such. On the flipside, she abhors rudeness, and will not hesitate to complain if someone is being rude to her, or she witnesses someone being rude to someone else.

She developed a passion for design at a young age, and her dream is to become a Stylist for the Hunger Games. While she keeps trying to make that dream come true, she runs her own boutique where she designs and sells clothing and accessories. She isn't the most popular shop in town, but she is able to get by with a decent living.

Alerae was born to Felycha and Zackarie Simian in the year of the 42nd Hunger Games. She actually had a pretty basic childhood, as far as the Capitol life was concerned. She was an only child to relatively well off parents, which meant she was able to be spoiled. While she didn't get EVERYTHING she wanted, her parents were both pushovers when it came to their darling daughter. So even from a young age, she was up to date with the latest of toys and fashion.

She went to school like any child would, but never really excelled in any of the normal studies like english or math. However, she did find that she possessed a talent for the arts, which quickly became focused on clothing. Her parents supported her dream of being a Hunger Games Stylist, as they were all big fans of the show.

After she graduated school, her father put the downpayment on a store-front, so that Alerae would be able to get her designs out there. Through family friends and gossip, the young woman managed to make a decent living of her own, able to not have to rely on her parents anymore. Currently, she resides in a small home situated above her shop as she strives to realize her dream.

I'm aware the history has nothing on the personality and appearance. I apologize, lol. Histories are the worst for me to make up with my characters >.<
