FULL NAME
Temperance Prunella Hume
Colloquially called Annie.

GENDER
Female.
Female, feminine, responds to she.

AGE
Vintage.
Young and freshfaced with an air of antiquity and elegance not commonly held by people whose age her face mimics.

SPECIES
Vampire
It is important to note that Annie is an empathic vampire rather than one who feeds through more sanguine methods.

ORIGIN
Rolling, tall-grass fields, dappled in strawberry and butterfly.
The countryside. Annie will still speak nostalgically about the country and regularly visits anywhere similar in pastorality and peacefulness.

OCCUPATION
Therapist
While also providing regular therapy services, Annie also consensually uses her empathic feeding as a therapeutic device for her patients.

MARITAL STATUS
Single, divorced.
Cripplingly terrified of love.

PETS
Stray cat mama.
Feeds many, many strays and allows them in and out of her home as they please, often tending to and rehabilitating injured and senior cats.

HEIGHT
5'6"
Average, though her thinness of limb gives a small willowiness.

BUILD
Svelte, fineboned.
Retains some softness in places but for the most part is rather narrow with low body fat.

EYES
Amber
Striking, prehistoric gold, the pupil held within like an ancient spherical insect. They glow like a freshly minted gold coin when in direct (sun)light.

HAIR
A darker ginger, with vivid orange threaded in.
A redhead. Burnt red, like clay, with rare golden-orange honey strands throughout. Length is long and texture is a loose curl that tumbles in supple, lazy loops. Often worn simply down but sometimes secured with gold-plated hair claws or pins, more rarely decorated with clips resembling butterflies or flowers or other decoration when the whimsy and mood strike.

SKIN
Porcelain and dusted with cinnamon.
A milky skin untouched by sun, corpselike and near translucent, though somehow dotted with brown and faint orange sunspots, like an airbrush of light earthen paints.

SCENT
Honey and milk, almond, French vanilla, chamomile.
Her scent is soothing and warm and has a calming effect.

VOICE
When working her tones are confident, soothing, silky even. But catch her anywhere else and she is softspoken, tremulous, and meek.
TBD

CLOTHING

JEWELRY
Heirloom and antique.
Classical pieces involving pearl and bone. Favors gold alloy to compliment her skintone. Pieces constructed by jewelers, no costumerie here; even her hair accessories are legitimate.

OTHER NOTABLE POSSESSIONS

PERSONALITY
Tenderhearted, nostalgic, deeply empathetic to a painful degree with a dysmorphia of perception that convinces her that there is no way anyone truly likes her. Prone to melancholy and paralyzing anxiety. Fears abandonment so she avoids the experience of love. Shy, nervous to share, to be seen. Afraid of how herself will burden others.

In reality and outside of her self-perception, she is a bleeding heart. Her empathy has no end and she feels the plight of others as though they were her own, and feels everything vividly, deeply, and painfully; even positive stimulus will evoke tears from the vampire. Gentle, do-no-harm, humble, thoughtful, caring, and motherly.

Her inner turmoil however runs deep and colors her entire life. Suffers primarily from deep depression and is often in the throes of being tormented by her own intrusive thoughts. The only time she feels calm and focused is at work or spending time with the strays she tends to. She does not feel comfortable, currently, in the company of any sentient being who can judge.

LIKES
Kittens, horses, deer, rabbits, tea of absolutely all kinds, kombucha, coffee, incense, scented oils, lace, clean linens, paperback novels, slippers, early morning.

DISLIKES
When people speak in loud tones, overly hot or overly frigid weather, perfume, the smell of greasy food, violence, dogs, rough men.
