This is a story for those who read between the lines. This is for those who look at every brush stroke. This is a tale for those who know even the subtlest of words can have hidden meanings. This is a story of love.
Even the ocean which can seem so simple on the surface holds a whole other world in it's deepest depths.

::Her Past:: Name: Lily Gustufson
Age upon death: 47
Appearance: Lily had Brown hair that when down went to her butt when it wasn’t tied up, but she often kept it up in a bun with braids that ran down to the nape of her neck. She had brown eyes, and her face was covered in freckles. She wasn’t beautiful in the slightest, and unless she was going to social events (a very rare occurrence), she always wore rags.
Profession: Mother and wife.
Her Story: Married at the late age of 19 to an older man who owned a farming plantation in the town neighboring the city that Drocavia lived in.
Being a frail and sickly woman, Lily was never much cut out for child birth. She had five miscarriages before she finally gave birth to a beautiful baby girl whom she named Claudia. Sadly her husband did not share her joy, for he had no son to inherit his fortune and land upon his death, and it was obvious that Lily was not going to give it to him.
Claudia grew up happy and healthy, and the apple of her mother’s eye. The bright and loving child gave Lily so much joy, that she did not even care when her husband began taking up lovers in the hopes of conceiving a son. She continued to do her work dutifully to care for her husband and child.
Sadly, the source of Lily’s joy could not last forever. At the age of 10, Claudia became gravely ill with a cold. In that day and age, medicine wasn’t as it was now, and the sickness quickly grew into phenomena. It was obvious that young Claudia was not much longer meant for this world.
Desperate for a miracle, Lily set out to a town where she heard of a composer who’s music was said to heal the sick and bring happiness. Sadly, these legends came too late and the mansion was run down and seemingly empty. Still desperate for any hope of a cure, she snuck inside in the middle of the night to seek out anything that might be of aid.
Lily was murdered that night in cold blood by Drocavia and sealed into a composition. Her daughter would fall into grief thinking that her mother had abandoned her in her time of need and shortly died, and her husband happily remarried to a younger, more beautiful, and child bearing able woman who bore him five sons, no daughters.

::Her Future::
 Name: Odette
Gender: Female
Appearance: Odette has pitch-black hair, which is extremely wavy, and long. Her skin porcelain and white, with blue eyes that seem as deep as an ocean. Her body is extremely frail and weak in appearance, as if the wind itself could snap her in half. Her lips are thin and her cheeks are rosy pink, making her look almost like a doll taken down from somebodies shelf and given life. Her face is soft and subtle like the song she was composed from, but deep within her burns a hidden fire.
Personality: From the outside Odette can seem very emotionless. She is soft spoken, quiet, and rarely speaks, for she learned from her father ways to communicate without words. Rarely smiling, Odette seems completely blank. It is only when one looks into her expressive and animated eyes can one see the strong and burning lust she has to care and protect those around her.
Odette is very caring, and motherly. If she sees a worm on concrete burning in the sun, she will pick it up with the gentlest of care and place it in the shade and the soil. If she sees an elderly man walking to check their mailbox, she will insist on helping him walk back to the door and ask him if his children ever call. Odette cares more for others than she ever would for herself, and wants nothing more than to protect those in need.
Style of dress: This young woman dresses very Victorian, much like her father. Always dresses that go down to her ankles, with pointed toed healed boots. She often wears gloves, corsets, and lacy tops; and is very fond of hats of all kinds. Some could call her ‘lolita’, but she really just doesn’t care for pants or skirts that make her feel vulnerable.
The only time she wears anything that could even start to be considered revealing is when she wears her tutu for her ballet, which she practices with a passion.
Power: Odette is a very empathetic person, and can feel emotions like pain, lust, and desperation. Feelings that burn deeply in a person’s soul that their outward expression might not say without words. For this reason she has difficulty around the elderly, because she can feel all the pain they have built up in them from their many years of life.
This comes to her not by seeing a magic colored aura or by mind reading, but by extreme sensitivity to those around them. The eyes tell all, and while she may not be able to predict ‘that persons grandmother just died’, she can somehow feel the sorrow that they are holding deep in their chest. This comes to her threw feelings in her chest and stomach, weather it is butterflies from extreme joy, tension in her stomach from anxiety; or a burning in her chest from sorrow. Basically, depending on the moods of those around her, she will be effected and act in a similar fashion. She feels others pain, only because she is very observant.

::Her Song::
Song: Stay With Me- Clint Mansell (The Fountain)
How this effects Odette: This song, much like Odette, can be explained with two words: subtle and deep. There is a strong message, but it is just lightly tapped on. Desperation, love, sorrow, need; and protection are all words that can come to mind when listening to this slow melody. It conveys the love one can have for another and the need to protect or save them from their troubles.
The song flows like water, which inspire Odette’s deep ocean eyes. It is somehow dark, yet light, which explains her contrasting dark flowing hair on light skin. For those who are not looking for it, it’s meaning can be overlooked, much like Odette’s feelings on her blank slate face.
This song was inspired by a man’s love to save his wife whom was dieing of cancer, which relates to Lily’s desperate search for anything that might spare her daughters life. Even though the song has no words, it screams out to the listener “Don’t leave me, I need you.”

::Her Protector::
Name: Oliver Bernstien Kuronaho
Gender: Male
Age range: Young adult, appears to be in his mid 20s.
Appearance: Oliver has semi-curly red hair that goes just a little bit past his shoulders. He keeps it tied in a loose ponytail with a ribbon while his bangs hang loosely over his forehead. He has green eyes and pale skin, with German facial features. He stands around 5’8, a little short for a male on Gaia standards, and he’s a bit chubby.
Personality: Oliver is a very shy and reclusive man, he tends to stick to himself and rarely (more like never) socializes with those outside of his household. This would largely be attributed to the fact that he is a mute, unable to speak since birth. He expresses himself threw his music, and is a brilliant composure. Too bad he rarely plays for an audience.
Oliver is very diligent and hard working, and a bit of a perfectionist. He easily gets frustrated with himself and others around him if things do not go exactly as he plans, and he shows his frustration threw a furrowed brow and violent arm movements.
He is very skilled at sign language, but for those around him that are unable to use hand gestures to communicate he carries a small chalkboard or dry erase board everywhere he goes. Because of this he has beautiful handwriting. Oliver is on the quest to regain memories of his own past life.. or rather, the life that he has forgotten.

I really love the child's description, and the story of her past has a very strong emotional pull for all sorts of people I'm certain. The child's personality is clever too, as she is flawed like any human, however perfect in a sense of giving. (if that makes sense)
I'm cheering for you, I hope you get this child. I would love to RP with Odeal and Oliver. I can't wait to see some concept art of her ^w^

Sweety, I must say that I love the banners. But that might be because I just came back from prom and anything shiney get's an automatic cookie.
*hands out cookies*
I think(?) you changed Oliver a little bit since the last time that I read about him, but I noticed that I like him a little better now.
I can't wait to see how you RP with him and other people.
The worm part will always get me, but that's a given.
I shall try to give more coherent crit when I am not half awake.
*snuggs*
Congradulations on your quest thread~ *throws confetti*

Yay! cookies! *inhails*
