A. ppearance;;
-- euridyce lennox might not be the tallest young woman in the block, but she carries herself as if she is, as a goddess among insects. her stance is straight, stiff like a board almost, and she walks in a way so professional and stern most young women her age can't even try to think about wanting to mimic. lennox regards others with the same stoic professionalism. her facial expression is rather blank, most commonly, if not with a hint of disdain present in her eyes. from a simple glance it is easy to tell that miss lennox isn't a woman easily pleased.
-- she stands approximately one point sixty-four meters tall, not including the heels on the shoes she frequently wears; her build is lithe with no obvious muscle outlined on her skin. lennox most likely weighs around fifty-something kilograms: as a woman of certain stature, she feels uncomfortable sharing these numbers with anyone, insisting that they are just that - numbers. women should be judged on things other than their height, weight and age, according to her, despite the male population of this earth frequently thinking otherwise. even so, euridyce has a lot 'going for herself'; curved in all the right places and keeping an eye on her health, she has managed to turn a head or two in the time she has been around.
-- lennox' skin is quite light, an inheritance from her mother, and her hair is of a light blond coloration to match. her hair is heavily layered; the longest strands reach quite a bit below her shoulders where they ever-so-gently curl back up while the strands near the top of her head are considerably shorter, and most commonly curl away from her head a little. her bangs shroud most of her face in darkness, azure blue eyes lighting up like headlights on a car from behind a pair of thick framed, rectangular glasses. her nose is small, round and button-like, standing just above a pair of full lips usually coated in a thin layer of lip gloss or lip balm, giving them a somewhat peachy sheen. aside from this and a touch of mascara, euridyce rarly applies make-up.
-- euridyce aims to always look her best. she is quite nit-picky when it comes to her outfit and is rarely, if ever, spotted in something as casual as an over sized t-shirt and a pair of baggy trackies with sneakers. the young woman prefers dark, earthy tones such as brown, green and a touch of gray, black and white here and there. while not most suitable for the adventurous lifestyle that was forced upon her, lennox refuses to stray from her button-up shirts, plain, knee-high skirts and high-heeled shoes. of course she has other articles of clothing in her possession, and other shoes as well, but those too have a business-womanly air to them when worn. euridyce simply refuses not to look professional; this gives her a hint of superiority that the young woman simply can't seem to do without.

But the beating of ou hearts.
P. ersonality;;
-- calm, observant, rational
eurydice will never rush to a conclusion. she calmly observes and formulates a plan, like a master strategist thinking of the best way to take over an opposing country. she takes her sweet time in coming up with something, and is obviously not the first person you'll want to go to if you want a decision made. euridyce takes in all the aspects and weighs them off against each other before making a descision, most commonly one that is most likely to make her achieve her goal. she cares little for whatever stands in her way; very oriented to becoming the best, eurydice has no problesm putting her own needs above those of others.
-- haughty, sarcastic, self-centered
in the end, there is only one person you can rely on; yourself. euidyce has used this knowledge as an excuse to be haughty and self-centered. if she is the only one she can truly trust in the end, then she must be an amazing person, right? the woman prides herself in nearly everything she does and is not afraid to rub it into other people's faces. she's quite the elitist for sure, and perhaps suffers a bit from a superiority complex. anyone who dares to disagree with her can expect to be met with a sarcastic reply; euridyce is simply too good to employ anything less than the subtleties of mockery.
-- cowardly, childish
being the only child in a rather well-off family made euridyce a spoilt-rotten brat. behind her air of professionalism, her haughty personality, the stoic mask she put on, lennox still is a bratty little girl. she cannot stand having things not go her way and is more likely to call in the help of others rather than to fix it herself, going as far as throwing tantrums if she cannot get exactly what she wants. it is far easier to hide behind others when something goes wrong, when the situation calls for a confrontation. in essence, lennox will be the kind of girl that breaks up with someone over email or text message - or actually send someone else to notify the other party of the 'unfortunate news'.
Not i sin and not in god,
Not in peace and not in war.
H. istory;;
-- aveline lennox was desperate to have a baby. her dream of being a mother had been with her for as long as she bothered to remember, longer even. and now, many artificial inseminations later, she was finally getting what she had desired for so long; a child of her own. what exactly made it so hard on her and her husband ephraim was a mystery to both, a mystery ephraim didn't particularly care about unraveling. finally his wife would stop pushing him, letting him focus back on his business developing pokéballs and making a living.
-- he wasn't present at the birth of his daughter. if he really had to have a child, he was pining for a son anyway.
-- aveline doted upon the baby girl as much as she could. nothing was too good for little euridyce, named after her mother and herself. the child received the best money could buy - from world-class diapers to rattlers, to the best teachers and professors when euridyce reached the appropriate age. the girl lived a sheltered life in the luxurious condo of her parents, surrounded by au pairs, professors and chefs that would provide for her if she did as much as lift a finger. of course, this was all good fun, as euridyce was too young to understand that this was not the normal way for children to grow up. loneliness? of course not! look at all the people that surrounded her, that liked being with her and liked looking after her!
-- despite her father rarely being present as euridyce grew up, the girl could not help but grow to adore the man. the lies her mother had to tell about her father's absence on birthdays and during recitals of the drama club euridyce was in only strengthened the girl's love and adoration for her father. sure, it was depressing that he couldn't make it to her birthday again, but he was out providing for her and her mother, out making their lives easy, out helping make the world a better place for humans and pokémon alike! what was there not to adore?
-- it was around euridyce's teenage years that the girl began to question things. exactly what was father doing? why? why couldn't he put his work aside if he really loved her and her mother? and exactly why didn't euridyce get to go to school, like 'normal' children? why didn't she have friends? these questions and many more slowly consumed the girl from the inside; after spending many nights alone in her room to think things over, thirteen year old euridyce exploded one night. she wasn't normal. the whole family wasn't normal. that was going to change. euridyce managed to get on her mother's nerves to such a degree that the woman allowed for her daughter to enroll in a 'regular' private school; it was there that euridyce had her first real interactions with not only people her age, but with pokémon as well.
-- everything was all highly intriguing to the girl, even though it cost her quite a lot of effort to fit in, make friends and maintain the high grades she had when she was still home schooled. everything was just so new, and there was constantly things demanding her attention. like, at the age of sixteen, boys for example.
-- logan whistler was roughly two and a half years older than euridyce, had traveled most of the region that the girl grew up in, and was damn hot on top of it all. there was not a girl in euridyce's year that wouldn't stand by the school gates once class was over to catch a glimpse of the boy on his arcanine, riding past school and chatting up girls. it didn't matter to euridyce that she was just another girl on the list when he approached her and swept her off her feet; he was looking at her, talking to her, thinking of her! lennox kept her relationship a secret from her parents, and snuck her boyfriend into their condo on more than one occasion, to show him where her father kept his liquor and to sit next to him on the sofa as he emptied one bottle after another.
-- she didn't even complain when logan became 'touchy', even though a gut feeling told her that this wasn't right, that she didn't want him to grab those parts of her body. by the time she realized he took advantage of her, it was already too late. her sudden change in behavior after one night where she had allowed logan to go further with her than she ever wanted alerted her mother; after a lot of pushing seventeen year old euridyce eventually did press charges, but the charges were dropped. 'it was consensual', had Logan said. Eurydice was heartbroken, but instead of letting go of her feelings and talking to someone, the girl focused completely on her school work, completely submerging herself in it.
-- Eurydice graduated quite easily and chose to study with her father at his company, to eventually take over the business one day. lennox proved to be more than just a capable businesswoman, but once things got too 'casual', the girl became a train wreck. she made the decision not to ever let herself get hurt like with logan for as long as she lived. she effectively closed herself off from emotions such as love and embraced the loneliness that came with it; she became the heir her father could only dream of. who was he to complain about her lack of interaction with other people when she was doing so many good things for his business?!
-- after working with her father for approximately a year, and ignoring her mother's protests that came with it by moving out of the house, her father gave his nineteen year old child her first official branch to lead; johto. she was to investigate the useage of pokémon capture devices in the region and come up with plans to make it better; the perfect way to do such a thing, according to ephraim, was to submerge herself into the trainer culture and study pokémon trainers from up close. reluctantly, euridyce agreed to her father's terms, as having her own branch sounded more than just a bit tempting, and the young woman packed up her gear before departing towards johto, to do exactly as her father had suggested.

[/blockquote]ooc// apologies on not sticking to the template provided, I hope it's not too much of a big deal since I did include all the aspects required. also, the lack of capitalization in here is a stylistic choice, which will be fixed when I start roleplaying or when I get the time to modify all of this, hehe. sorry.
