What kind of clothes does you character wear when she's not in uniform? Cecilia almost always wears long sleeves and longer skirts or pants, and always carries around her umbrella, all due to her albinism leaving her extremely photosensitive.

She doesn't actually have a whole lot of spare clothes since they move around so much, it's just easier to have less.

Please explain your character's personality in 200 words or more: Cecilia's a very reserved girl, a trait she's developed after years of being the 'new girl' and being bullied due to her albinism and epilepsy. Since she was bullied so much, and received no help or support at all from her parents, she's become very withdrawn, almost never initiating conversations with people she doesn't know and almost never approaching people to become friends with them. When she was old enough to understand why her parents didn't like her, she started going out of her way to be helpful to them, to make herself useful, and this trait has carried over to her relationships with her friends, so she's always trying to do something for the people she's close too, so that they'll want her. She's always afraid that people won't want to be friends with her after they witness one of her seizures, as it's happened in the past, and she's extremely self-conscious about just about everything she does, and is really just looking for people to like her, due to her parents never really being that interested in her. She tends to go along with whatever the group wants to do rather than suggest her own ideas and potentially get ostracized, and tends to second guess herself. In addition, she has a tendency to apologize a lot, especially after she has a seizure, even though she has no way of controlling when she has them.
What does you character think of the Etoile position as a whole? She's somewhat in awe of the idea, and really, really thinks it's a great idea. The two girls loved the most by all held up as the example. It's almost like one of her dreams where her parents love her more than anything else.
Does your character want to be an Etoile someday? If someone wanted to run with her, then of course. But why would anyone want to run with her or vote for her?
What does your character think of Maiko Suzumi and Kagami Hiruko, the current etoiles? Cecilia admires Maiko a lot, but feels that she understands Kagami a little better, being a lot like her. She looks up to Maiko as the example of what she should try to be like and act like, but doubts she can be like one of the great Etoiles.
What does your character think of the other schools? She thinks that the Spica girls are amazing for being able to do all those sports and activities, and actually looks up to them for being able too. She wishes that Miator had the number of choices that LeRim has, a lot of those clubs seem really fun.
~History~
Please write in 100 words or more your character's history before she came to Miator:
History before Astraea Hill: Cecilia's parents both come from very wealthy families, and they got married very young. They weren't intending to have children, as they both wanted to see the world. Cecilia was a bit of an unpleasant surprise. Their religious beliefs were the only reason they even kept her, and they weren't exactly thrilled with the fact that she pushed back their plans to move out of Göteborg by several months. They were more than a little surprised when she was born and they discovered she was an albino. Cecilia has no memories of the city where she was born, as her parents moved to Glasgow in Scotland as soon as she was old enough to be able to move. It was around this time that she was diagnosed with epilepsy, which did little to endear her to her parents. They already didn't really want her, and this, combined with her albinism and age made it difficult for them to travel very often, and her father decided he wasn't even going to pretend to like her. They stayed in Glasgow until Cecilia was three at which point they moved across the Atlantic to Halifax, Nova Scotia.
Cecilia was only in school in Halifax for about six months before they moved, and she was bullied because of her albinism, and wasn't able to make many friends. She had the same problem in Anchorage, and many of her classmates were reluctant to approach her after she had a seizure in the middle of class. Her parents did little to try and help her with the bullies, but did look into prevention for her epilepsy, if only to make their travel easier. They stayed in Anchorage for a few years and Cecilia was able to make a few friends, but they abruptly moved to Aukland when Cecilia was seven. The same routine played out again, with Cecilia being the new girl and being bullied because of her albinism and seizures, but made a few friends. By this point Cecilia was aware of why her parents disliked her so much, even if her mother tried to hide it, and so Cecilia tried her best to be useful to them, be helpful, so as to try and get them to like her. It did sting when they didn't like her anymore than they had before, and she became a little resentful, but also very upset with herself. It was during this time that her seasonal depression began to develop. When she was nine, once again, her parents decided to move, and this time it was to Sapporo. Her life in Sapporo fell into the pattern it had before, and two years later, her parents started planning to move to Jerusalem. However, as they were doing so, they discovered Astraea Hill and realized that they could send Cecilia there and not have to worry about her. They spent the next three weeks getting everything set up, and then on the day they were due to leave for Israel, they dropped Cecilia with all her things at the Gate.
First Year: Following her rather abrupt arrival on Astraea, Cece was fortunate enough to run into an older Le Rim student who chose to take Cece under her wing. Kanako, the older student, would encourage Cece in a number of ways, including taking her to the winter ball. At the winter ball, Cecilia happened to meet a certain silver haired adventurer, who rapidly became an important fixture in the albino's life. In fact, she might even be developing a bit of a crush on the girl… In addition, Cece made a number of other friends, and had only a few seizures, with only one happening in the presence of a large number of people.

Sample Post: Cecilia wanted to cry. She just didn't understand why they would do this, just leave her here at this school she knew nothing about while they went off to Israel like they'd been planning. Had she not been good enough? Was it because of her seizures? Hadn't she tried hard enough? But here she was, all her belongings being pulled out of the car as quickly as possible. After all, her parents had that plane to catch. "All right, I think that's everything," her father declared as he pulled the last box out. Her mother smiled and patted Cecilia on the head, saying "Be a good girl now, Cecilia. We'll see you when we get back to Japan." Cecilia gave a weak smile and nodded, wishing that just once, they could show affection, that they'd give her a kiss on the cheek or hug her. But of course she got nothing, and her father merely checked his watch and gave a small cry. "We've got to go now, dear, if we're going to catch our flight." And with that, they turned and got into the car, driving away without looking back. Once they were out of sight, Cecilia started crying as she turned toward the gate. "Now what?" she asked herself quietly as she gazed up at the place that was now her home.
