Quote: "Don't try to cage me. Or save me. I'm a wild thing. I am a creature and I need your love for a wild thing"
Personality: Alexandria's personality is more than her being stubborn. Her personality derives from her likes, dislikes, her strengths, weaknesses, her secret, her dreams, and also her fears. Alexandria loves reading. It takes her to another world she could never even dream of. She feels safe and secure in even the most dangerous places as long as she has a book with her. She also loves writing. Her head is so full of imagination, sometimes she writes until she can't anymore. She loves to dance. She feels like dancing is just another way to express her emotions. Dancing is like a second nature to Alex. Like eating or drinking would be. She loves having fun, who doesn't? Alex would rather be running around the woods than in a classroom learning the history of Arriene, their kingdom. The most important thing Alex believes in though is living life to the fullest. She feels like if you don't do this, then why live? Why just play it safe? Living life to the fullest is supposed to be risky and fun and dangerous. At least in her opinion.
Now, Alex may have a lot of likes but that doesn't mean she doesn't have any dislikes, which are mostly about other people. She hates people telling her no. She's just so stubborn if she doesn't get her way or if someone told her no, she gets angry and just storms out. She hates, just hates, people who bully others. She just doesn't understand what you gain from being mean to someone else. The satisfaction of seeing them upset? Why would someone want that? There was nothing to gain except being known as a bully. The fact that someone thought they had to be mean to someone to get what they wanted, also seemed absurd to her. She also wished she would stop losing her books. She just can't seem to find them where she knows she put them. And it seems that it always happens when she wants to find the book. She'll see it the day before and then she'll want to read it and it'll be gone. She also dislikes being her forgetful self. She forgets things easily, at least where she put things. She will put something down and then forget where she put it an hour later. Her dad always said she'd forget her head if it wasn't attached to her shoulders. She also doesn't like talking to people who are ignorant about things that she is interested in talking about. It just makes for a dull conversation and that isn't something she liked doing at all.
Alex also has some strengths, being a person. She's a great listener, knowing when to take advice from people and also when to look like she is listening to someone. She doesn't talk unless she feels she should add something to what the person is saying. Alex is also a great strategist. She knows how to attack and where to attack. But that's not all. She knows when to leave, how to leave, and can often detect if there will be interceptions from other people. She also doesn't give up easily. She will fight to the death if she had to, to get what she needed. She never took what she wanted. She was always giving to others and when something seems hard, she doesn't just stop and say 'oh well, we tried' no. She keeps on going until she can't.
Alex also has some faults, weaknesses. She forgets things very easily, as noted before. She can seem like she doesn't really care about things that interest her, which is actually a lot of things. She's headstrong, not willing to be proven wrong. She'd do almost anything to prove that she is right and the other person is wrong. She also doesn't know when to stop. She would keep going until she was dead if she had to. She isn't one to give up and well, she wouldn't stop just to keep herself from being hurt. She doesn't care about her well being and wouldn't care if she were to die right then and there, as long as her kingdom was safe.
Alex only has two dreams. And she knows she will never be able to have them. She's a princess so she is expected to be there for every royal thing. But that doesn't mean she can't still dream. She wants to be a writer. Someone who writes about mystical things and things people don't believe in. She also wants to be a dancer. Someone who travels far and wide to show her talents of being a dancer. She can dance to anything and to be that taleneted was something all her sisters had in common.
Now, with all this being said, she isn't perfect. Especially if someone messes with her family. She is strongly protective of her family, being the second eldest, and wouldn't hesitate to strike someone down for hurting one of her family members.
History: Alexandria, born Princess Alexandria Arianna Maria Melanie Ravenslord – her mother couldn’t decide on what name – is the second eldest of twelve kinds in the family. As a young child, Alexandria was always an adventurer. She never did what was told of her. She wouldn’t sit still to save a life. Always on the go, Alexandria had many adventures that her family didn’t know of. The young princess would go off into the woods in search for anything. Sometimes, she’d find things and make up a whole story of how they got there.
One night, the queen was having her last baby, the twelfth, when something terrible went wrong. Alexandria was only about seven, her older sister being nine, and then there was a younger sister age six, twins at age five, another daughter at age four, and twins at age three, a daughter at age two, and last but not least a daughter at age one, then the queen’s baby then. With their luck, the baby would probably be a girl. As the queen went into labor, the two eldest daughters went in to help the two doctors. As they helped they saw that the queen, their mother, was birthing twins. In hopes, Alexandria hopped for a baby brother. Someone to share her adventure with her. Because no one her age wanted to be with a girl, especially since she liked adventure.
But alas, her hoping was not good enough. The last daughter was born, marking the final daughter of the queen. A week later, the queen grew fatally ill. No doctor could heal her and within a day, she died. The girls grew up without the loving and motherly touch of a mother. They grew up being more like men. Alexandria hated her life and dreamed of escaping to another world, like her books. Her sisters were less and less like her, always running amuck and causing so much hazard. She would always run, or ride her horse, to a secret spot of the woods, where she danced until she couldn’t anymore.
As Alex danced she read. Gaining knowledge in how to run the kingdom of Arriene. She found out how it got its’ name. The very first king had a wife named Arriene and when a neighboring kingdom, also the brother of the king, attacked for the wife’s hand in marriage, Arriene ran to the battlefield and sacrificed herself. It was an interesting story and Alex knew that the women in history usually played a big part in it.
When Alex reached sixteen, the king decided that they needed to shape up. None of them were to go outside of the castle walls. Not to dance, not to do anything. During the night, Alex read a book left by her mother, all of them had gotten one and found out there was a secret place where they could dance whenever they wanted. Alex told her older sister first, who quickly agreed to do it. Soon everyone else followed her.
Night after night, day after day, Alex and her sisters all went through a routine. First it was waking up after going to sleep for an hour, then doing things their father wanted them to learn, which meant for the three eldest to learn things of how to become great Queens. Instead of the eldest getting the crown, the three of them would get them. Because three was better than one. And once the others reached sixteen, they would become queens too. But that was only once the king died. After learning what they should do once queens, they would eat and then do activities to keep up their strength in front of their father, and then act like they would be going to bed when in reality they would be going to the secret place.
In the secret place, they all had the power to imagine something and it would come true. It would be like having twelve princes to dance with, or food to eat or making the place a more beautiful place. But then their shoes were always worn out and their father found out. Day after day, he would ask someone to find out what was going on. Soon, a soldier came and found out what they were up to. He told the king, who had said if anyone could find out they’d get the hand of whoever he wanted to marry. He picked the eldest, thinking that he would be king one day.
The week after was Alex’s seventeenth birthday and they had a full birthday party for her.
A few weeks after Alex's seventeenth birthday, the king decided they needed a mother's touch. Soon he was plagued with what everyone but his daughters called, True Love. Everyone was blind to this...Enchantress's magic, except his daughters. Alex would do anything to save her father, the same would go for any of her sisters, and when she confronted the woman about it, she denied it and yelled at her to stop with the lies or else. When Alex didn't stop, she found out what the 'or else' really meant. She was sentenced to the dungeon, for five years. The sentence had been treason. The Enchantress had told everyone Alex had tried to get the king to hand over the crown to her. She had told lies of how Alex wanted to crush her fathers happiness.
But…after that the curse came and her and her sisters and father were torn into another world without magic. They forgot all about their real lives and Alexandria became just Andria and called herself Andi.
Likes: Reading, Writing, Dancing, Having fun, which is an adventure, Living life to the fullest

Roleplay Example:
Andi grinned just a little as she put her hair up and glanced around. She sighed a little as she opened her window. She breathed in the fresh open air and started her descent down from her room. Her father was up in his room but with Andi’s luck, she wouldn’t be heard. She was a master strategist, though she didn’t know how she had gotten it, and knew exactly how to do things without being caught. She grinned as she jumped down and started walking towards the woods. She grabbed the bag she kept hidden and grinned a bit more.
She put on her shoes and started dancing towards her spot. She danced to many things. Not just ballet or hip-hop. No. She danced to her own music and her own style. She didn’t care what people thought of her. As she listened to the music, she followed the path and put her stuff down. She started dancing around the trees with her eyes closed. She had always danced around the trees, never once hurting herself. She had this knack of knowing where the trees were. Not always though. Andi could only guess it was because she had been dancing there ever since she had been able to dance, at least she could assume that.
Andi grinned a bit as she danced to her music. “Don’t try to cage me…or save me…I’m a wild thing. I am a creature…and I need you’re…love for a…wild thing.” She kept dancing as she sang. She was in her own little world, not paying attention to anything else but that. She grinned more and more as she sang and danced and had fun. She missed days like these. Where she could have fun and dance all the time in the world without worries about what her father would say about her going out at night. Her sisters thought best to respect her father’s decisions. After all, going out at night was dangerous. At least to them. It wasn’t something she liked hearing. Night always equaled dangerous. It was so annoying to her.
Andi danced around until she couldn’t feel her feet. At that moment she tripped and something –or should she say someone– caught her. The only thing that ran through her mind was that her sisters were right. With how forgetful she was, she never really watched in front of her and it could become very dangerous. The person who caught her could be very dangerous and she would never even know that. She was stupid. That was what she was. She got caught in this position and now who knew who this person was….
