Nicknames: N/A
Pronouns: Female/she/her
Age: 17
Birthday: July 21st
School: St Cecelia’s School of the Arts
Hobbies:
- Painting -- She's an avid watercolor enthusiast and takes every opportunity to paint. She dabbles in other painting mediums, but watercolor are where her heart lies. She likes to paint pictures of her parent's farm, or her grandparents' vineyard when she visits them, but she will paint any and everything that catches her interest. That might be why there are a lot of dragonfly paintings…
Gymnastics -- Her grandparents started paying for lessons when she was a tiny child, and though she has no interest in competing on a global stage, she enjoys going to local competitions. Her interest in the sport has also led her to have a passing fancy with parkour, which she's alright at. The spontaneity of it is exciting.
Pros:
- Call my name, and I'll be there… Friendly -- She likes to think of everyone as a friend she hasn't met. She has no problems talking to a perfect stranger, or sitting with random people at lunch. It's hard for her to think of anyone as her enemy, even if they've wronged her once or twice. She starts to get a little upset and reserved by the third transgression, but she hasn't yet figured out where the point of no forgiveness is.
Carry on Generous -- She's very giving and generous, almost to a fault. Donate to orphans? Here's a dollar. Raise awareness for a disease? She'll volunteer for your event. Save the animals? She'll give her left arm. She's always willing to help out others, which could lead her to being taken advantage of if she isn't careful. She doesn't mind buying her friends lunch once in a while, but if it's every day then there's a problem.
The power of love Hard worker -- Her parents own a small farm on the outskirts of the city, and she loves working there on weekends. She puts her all into helping on the farm, or into her paintings, or gymnastics, because she loves what she's doing.
Cons:
- Nothing at all I don't like any single word to describe this trait -- She has a short attention span for anything but painting and gymnastics. She hates watching movies because after an hour, she's ready to do something else. Asking her to binge watch a show is like trying to bathe a cat. It's a struggle, and she's not gonna go easily. Likewise, if it's something she doesn't want to do, or has no interest in the first place, she'll whine and moan about it, and probably not do a good job or be good company.
I want someone to love Naïve-- Because she automatically assumes everyone is her friend, everyone is in the friend-zone. While she loves the idea of romance, adores romantic fiction and would love to be in love, she has no clue how it looks in real life. Since she's also generous, she won't likely notice when someone is bad news and taking advantage of her kindness and generosity. For all she knows, they just need help.
She's got the power Hides what's wrong -- She will always downplay what's wrong. Did she get hurt? Oh, it's nothing. Is she upset? "I'm fine." She doesn't want to burden others with her problems, and doesn't want to show when she's feeling weak. She tries not to complain, but this can lead to her being overwhelmed and break down when things are just too much to handle.
General Appearance

This avi is a pretty good representation of what she looks like.
Rui has auburn/red hair that she typically has in 2 small buns to keep it away from her face, and leaves the rest hanging down free. Her hair is fairly long, coming down to about the small of her back. Her hair is straight or slightly wavy at best.
Her eyes are a molten golden color (Yellow to orange color range.)
Her favorite color combo is orange and pink, and typically wears those colors.
She doesn't wear typical belts, preferring to have cute ribbons (usually pink) instead.
It is not unusual to see her wearing cute leggings or tights under shorts or skirts for extra pops of color.
