[/center][/font]Dee stepped into a world not like her own. A world of love, magic and tyranny. Though they are often referred to as Dee or Asphodel, this individual has been playing the same game for sixish. In their life starting 18 years ago, they never saw this coming. You can often find them impersonating Asphodel…. To talk to them about their experiences you can PM

• Appearance•[/center][/size][/font]
Model: Emilie De Ravin
Height: 5’7”
Weight: 112 pounds
Eye Color: Green-blue, they tend to change color though
Hair Color: Golden blonde
Tattoos and Piercing: Asphodel's ears are pierced once though she rarely wears anything in them.
Clothing Style: Asphodel has never been picky about what she wears. She wears what's available to her and doesn't complain about how it looks or feels. She doesn't mind how she looks in clothing so long as it's comfortable. Though being the mountain princess her attire is usually formal.
Nice dresses of satin and silk are very common. Pastel colors that accent her body, hair and eyes very nicely. A lot of her gowns are strapless or have straps that come around the back of her neck which flow out and puff around her waist. She really couldn’t care less what was on her though. The only common theme is going without shoes. And if she is wearing them they are rather nice, gold sandals.
Appearance: The best way to describe Asphodel is dreamy and wispy. She has a diamond shaped face with a small, square shaped chin and a sharp jaw line. Her brows are perhaps a bit too thick for her face though that doesn't seem to matter with her. They are slightly curved over a pair of round, diamond shaped eyes of intense color. Her lashes are dark against her paler complexion and fair hair. They seem to intensify the blue-green color of her eyes. Her eyes tend to change color, seeming a pale green one second and a dark blue the next. Brown is the only color they don't seem to look though they have been gray and even violet looking before. Her eyes have a very dreamy and distant look to them and show a lot of what she is feeling. It's hard for her to hide things in her eyes. The bridge of Asphodel's nose is thin, curling upward to a downward pointed tip. Her lips, dark in color, are thin and always smiling. Her mouth is a bit too long for her face with small marks from biting them.
Asphodel's hair is very Elven and no doubt beautiful. It falls an inch or two past her mid back and is rather wavy. Thick and silken strands fall in loose curls down her slender back and slight shoulders. The cut is very simple, straight across with shorter pieces in the front, while the color is detailed. Her hair is fair, golden in color with light wisps of paler and darker highlights. Her hair is very prone to flying away in the breeze and always left down.
Like any Tull Elf Asphodel is on the tall side. She stands at 5'7" though she weighs very little. She is slight and slender with small features. Her shoulders are slim with a very feminine slope to them leading down to a smaller chest. Her hips have a rather light curve to them, giving her a "ruler" figure that suits here rather well. From the very light curve of her waist to the tiny bubble in her belly and the slim form of her legs she seems to look as close as perfect as one can get. Don't tell her that though, she won't believe you. She holds herself elegantly and gracefully.
Voice: Asphodel has a soft and gentle voice that holds a lot of emotion she just can't express. It holds this odd sort of edge that holds you in when she starts talking. She has a sweet tone with a wispy and rather dazed sound to it. Asphodel's voice is honest.

Personality: Asphodel is a bit of a ditz and very often rather clueless. She is blind to some of the most obvious things. She seems to lack common sense at times and can be considered a bit of an air head. She is slow and often careless. It’s almost like she has the mind set of a child. She has a vast amount of curiosity and will ask any question that comes to mind though she knows when to hold herself back. She will often run off in search of an answer though.
She is a friendly person. Perhaps a bit too much so. She will talk to anyone and everyone. She holds conversations rather well and can talk about almost any subject. She is a kind and respectful girl who loves meeting people and making them happy. She has a very happy demeanor about her that seems to be contagious when she’s around. Her gleeful manner and care free prancing can bring a smile to the most depressed faces. Which is what she tries to do. She wants to be friends with everyone and hates the idea of being disliked.
Despite seeming like an air head Asphodel is a bright young girl. She is creative though it’s something she doesn’t show to just anyone. She may trust everyone but she will trust very few people with her secrets. The only one she really spills her guts to is Demetrius. She will tell him anything; from her need to travel to the people she danced for that day.
When it comes to her love for him she shows it in some odd ways. Because of her position their relationship has to be kept secret. Hard to think this ditzy girl can do that but she’s actually been rather good at it. It’s being thought of as a ditz that has helped her. Her constant habit of running off to explore new places leaves room for her to sneak off to see him. She can lie through her teeth as well. Sneaking off is something she enjoys doing and is one of the odd ways she shows her affection.
She is a rather physical person when it comes to Demetrius. Flattery is common as well as nagging to see him perform or do tricks. She is easily impressed and excitable and uses this nagging and whining as another form of affection. She likes to be childish with him and just lay in the grass and talk.

Family: Murphy Darwin || age || Mountain King || alive
Leiannia Darwin || age || Mountain King || dead
Camren || Age || Unknown Half Brother || alive
Pet: Zad || Miniature Gargoyle
Talents/Abilities: Asphodel is rather decent at singing and is a spectacular dancer.
History: Asphodel Leia Darwin wasn’t the first child of the Mountain King but she was the last. Long before Asphodel’s birth her father, Murphy, and her mother Leiannia had been trying for a baby. An heir to the throne. But for some reason Leiannia just couldn’t keep a pregnancy. And when she did manage to keep the pregnancy the entire nine months the baby would die a crib death. So after a while the couple was indifferent when it came to their babies. Indifferent until Asphodel came along.
As a baby Asphodel was needy. She constantly cried for attention and would fuss if away from her mother for too long. A beautiful little girl who was healthy and happy. It would have been picture perfect if not for the queen’s quick decline in health. Not even a month after baby Asphodel’s birth Leiannia died. Immediately King Murphy ordered maids and nanny’s to care for Asphodel. He wanted little to do with her.
Her childhood years were very simple and not that exciting. She was a flourishing little girl with beautiful blond hair and bright curios eyes. She was talkative even as a toddler and was always running off. A free spirited girl who didn’t seem to have a care in the world. And she didn’t really. Her smiling face reflected a lot of how she felt. She could always get people to smile by entering a room and dancing around them. Though there was one person who never seemed to do anything but scowl when Asphodel entered his presence. King Murphy was always rather indifferent when it came to Asphodel. He felt his wife’s death was her fault.
Asphodel never really noticed how distant her father was from her. She was raised to be that way. You could say she was raised to be a bit of an air head as well. Some things she just couldn’t grasp despite being a clever little girl. One thing she picked up on right away though was dancing. She had a habit of begging to go watch travelling players in the city and would copy their movements and performances. It was during one of these when Asphodel, a young girl of eleven, saw Demetrius performing.
Watching performers in the city wasn’t something her father was fond of her doing. That didn’t stop her from going though. There was very little anyone could do when Asphodel set out to the cities. Let her be and she would always come back before sun down. And often she would bring a performer or two back with her. That was how he got his job at the castle.
At first she found him interesting and talented. Though she would admit she found him cute as well. She started to spend a lot of time with him, flirting shamelessly when her nannies and servants weren’t around. It wasn’t long before it grew into something more serious. She was young, yes, but in this world she was old enough to be married off. Which her father was planning on doing. But despite her father’s wishes she continued to see Demetrius, whom she had very strong feelings for.Later
Not long before Asphodel’s arranged marriage she was caught in bed with Demetrius. She was slaughtered before Demetrius’ eyes before she even had time to be afraid. Demetrius, horrified, took Asphodel’s body and fled.
Next thing she knew she was waking up in a surrounding completely new to her. She didn’t know where she was or even who she was. She couldn’t remember a thing about herself or her past. The only things she retained were talking, walking, dressing and dancing; for the most part. She had no recollection of loving Demetrius though she had a feeling he was important. At first she didn’t trust him though after much convincing and lying on his part she believed what he told her.

Secret Word: CORRECT[/color]
Word Limit: CORRECT[/color]
Sample-Roleplay:
Asphodel couldn’t help but notice what a wonderful day it was. It was warm for the mountains, the sun shining brightly down on the palace while a light breeze beckoned her outside. And of course she had to listen to it. She had awoken long before her servant had, the bright sun disturbing her sleep through the window. She always waited for them before dressing though. So she had been walking around the palace in her pale blue night gown for quite some time. At least she had eaten breakfast and squeezed in some tutoring before being ushered back to her room to get dressed.[/size][/blockquote][/blockquote]
From day one she had let her servant pick out what she wore. She didn’t care and they new her schedule better than she did. They had chosen a white and red gown for her that was actually rather casual considering. It had red “sleeves” that was a large piece of fabric that rested on her arms and white floral designs on it. It was white satin and hugged her chest and torso with red flowers going down the left side. It proceeded to flow out around her waist and was a bit too long. She would probably trip on it later. A red slit was under it to reveal more red satin with white designs. It was a gorgeous dress though they were trying to get her to wear a pair of silver shoes. No thank you!
The second she was finished with the dress she ran out of the room before they had time to do her hair. Golden curls were flying in a tangled heap behind her as she turned the corners of the palace. She seemed to glide as she hurried out the garden doors and into the dew covered grass. People waved to her as she passed them and she smiled back, not bothering to stop and say hello. She was on a mission.
“I’m going to town!” she called to one of her nannies who smiled and nodded. Without even a pause in her step she glided through the gardens, picking up her dress as she went, and down the hills. It would take a lot less time for her to take a horse to the city but Asphodel preferred walking. It was nicer and more peaceful. She met some travelers along the way almost every time too. The only time she didn’t like walking was at night time but by then Demetrius was with her.
Her heart fluttered a bit at the thought of seeing him again. She could see his smiling face in her mind. His deep eyes and perfect hair. He paused as she walked to admire the mental image of his happy expression then continued before realizing she had completely forgotten about Zad. Though by now her miniature gargoyle was used to her running off the second she got a chance and followed behind her. Like he was doing now. His stone wings were fluttering behind her and near her feet protectively.
“Oh I’m sorry Zad! Here, come up with me,” she apologized with that sweet and soft voice of hers. She bent over to pick him up and he got the point, scurrying up her arm and curling around the back of her neck. She giggled, pat him on his stony head and continued to walk. Walking without shoes. You would think her feet would start to hurt after a while but she was so used to it. She never wore shoes and if she did they were rather thin in make.
She started to hum as she walked. Passing the time. She thought about a lot. Walking from her palace to the city below was rather easy actually. Sure these were the Mountains but they had made paths leading to the valleys for safe passing. Which is where she was right now. The stone was smooth and almost like a long stairwell curling down the mountain. Perfect for her constant fleeing to the cities.
She always claimed she was going to shop and watch the performers though that was only practically true. She would be watching a performer all right but not in the way they assumed. Demetrius. Could je get even more perfect? Probably not
