What kind of clothes does you character wear when she's not in uniform?
Hathor wears a lot of modest clothing, as in her culture women aren't supposed to show a lot of skin. She really dislikes skirts, as they're not practical and uncomfortable. She dislikes wearing shoes and goes without them whenever possible, which isn't hard given Japan's culture of removing footwear before entering the house or classroom.

Is your character on the Student Council? -No
If yes, what does your character think of the student council president, Himiko Miyamae?
Please explain your character's personality in 200 words or more:
Hathor is a very happy, somewhat naive child. She's extremely obedient, having a hard time ignoring orders or requests from anyone. She tries to be kind to everyone, almost never raising her voice or getting angry. She is extremely respectful to everyone, including those who are younger then her. She is extremely sensitive to those around her, being able to see when they are upset or if they need anything. She is also extremely responsible; if she says or is told to have something done by a specific time, it will be done two days before.
Hathor is extremely pacifistic, taking what is given to her and getting up with a smile. She absolutely refuses to fight back against anyone, even if she is physically harmed. She never gives much mind to her own opinions and feelings, constantly attending to those around her. She is the first one to step up when something's wrong. If someone's hungry, she give them her food. If they're tired, she'll carry their books. This often allows others to take advantage of her, and weather she doesn't see this or just doesn't care is uncertain.
Despite her gentle and passive personality, Hathor is very physically strong and has a lot of endurance.
Hath has a very unusual idea of what love or affection entails; again, she believes her own feelings had little to no meaning, and so if someone has feelings for her she feels obligated to oblige them, regardless of how she herself feels.
What does you character think of the Etoile position as a whole?
Hathor doesn't understand the position, really; two girls who are representatives for the schools, yet they seem to have no real power. No one waits on them, they don't tell people what to do. How can someone with such an important position not have those privileges?
Te thought of them being in love is even more tantalizing. How can they both be in love? Surely, one is the lover and the other follows her commands, right?
Does your character want to be an Etoile someday?
If someone wanted her to run with them, she would of course obey, though having any kind of authority scares Hathor.
What does your character think of Kagami Hiruko and Maiko Suzumi, the current etoiles? (Please answer this question even if she does not know who they are.)
Maiko- Sama must be the controlling partner, the one that actually loves; this, of course, causes a deep feeling of respect and a little fear is Hathor. Kagami- sama, on the other hand, she can relate to; being forced to love someone else was something she understood. When people say that the love isn't forced, Hathor stops listening; that sort of thing simply doesn't exist.
What does your character think of the other schools? (Miator and Spica are Rivals, but it's up to you if your character feels anything like that toward the other schools.)
Hathor feels that the other schools must be greater then hers, since she attends Spica. LeRim and Miator should be respected and obeyed, without question. (Though, to be fair, she feels this way about the other students in her own school as well)
~History~
Please write in 100 words or more your character's history before she came to Spica.
Hathor Sahwali was born in a small and extremely superstitious village in Egypt, in the midst of an expanse of desert. Her mother, who was sickly and frail, died in childbirth and her father immediately thought the child was cursed. He named her "Hathor", after the ancient Egyptian Goddess of destruction.
She spent her first years running wild; her father wanted nothing to do with her, and neither did the other villagers. As soon as she was able she was responsible for feeding herself, and so rarely are anything cooked. Her diet consisted of mostly raw vegetables and the like, and she spent her time exploring the desert and imagining herself some great explorer, destined to make a huge discovery.
When she was five, a group of men came through their village. Before she knew what was happening, the men had placed a few gold pieces in her fathers hand and loaded her onto a donkey, tying her hands. She had been sold into an illegal slave trade.
It was days before they reached the nearest large town, and by the. The child was exhausted and hungry. Due to her young age and healthy disposition, she was quickly sold to a wealthy family within the city.
They weren't bad people, really; the slaves ate twice a day, vegetables mostly. The servants were to do their work quickly and efficiently; if they refused to work or worked too slow, they were beaten and denied their meals. Hathor was extremely homesick; even though her father was practically a stranger, she had never before been required to perform such labor, and she had been allowed to do as she pleased. Now, she was quickly tamed to do as she was told, quickly and without question.
She stayed with this family for three years, her work increasing as she grew older. She quickly became very strong, learning to bite her tongue and obeying her betters. Even the more veteran slaves had rank over her, and she had to obey them as well. When she was eight, her master began to fall back on his wealth, and so he sold many of his slaves, Hathor included. The family that bought her was middle- class, and she was only one of three servants.
This family had a daughter that quickly took a liking to Hathor, and one night called her to her room, where she confessed her "love" to her, proclaiming that she was now HER slave. Hathor, who felt nothing emotionally for this girl, went along with it to make her owner happy, believing that is was simply her duty to "love" her back. The girl and Hathor were together a lot, and the girl "used" her in many ways, always warning her never to tell. Hathor continued to obey, growing more and more convinced that this was just the love went.
Again she was sold, at the great displeasure of her owners daughter, and this time was bought by a horrid rich man, one who took great delight in abusing his slaves. Hathor didn't get fed regularly, her chores and duties were far above what a then- 11 year old girl. Luckily, she didn't stay there long; a traveling missionary found her and bought her, along with the others there, away from the man and brought them all to England.
Once there, it was quite a culture shock for Hathor; have lived most of her life a slave, it took her quite a while to adjust to being able to talk to whomever, to eat whatever and whenever she wanted (though she retained her vegetarian diet). The man who saved her arranged for her to go over seas, to attend an all- girls Catholic school in Japan. She began learning Japanese and by the time she was 12 could speak it well enough to get by. And so she was sent there by plane, eagerly awaiting the next stage of her life.

Sample Post:
Most people can't appreciate how powerfully the sun beats down on Egypt. It was so bright, so warm, so lively.
The small girl walked along the cobblestone path, her bare feet long accustomed to the heat. She wore a rough- spun tunic and her hair in a sloppy ponytail, a basket full of bread and other fresh food balanced between her arm and her hip.
She knew she had to hurry; Master would be angry if she took too long, and she had so much work to do back at his house... She quickened her step, desperate to make it before she was deemed "too slow".
She sighed as she walked; she missed her village. She missed the mysteries that laid in wait for her within the desert, the secrets the sands held for her. She missed being able to run free, and she could still remember the glint of the gold that had been placed in her fathers hand, the blank look he had given her as she was taken away.
She wondered if he ever though of her; where she was, how she was doing. Probably not. He never paid her any mind when she was there, why should it be any different with her gone?
She approached the doorway to the house and quickly opened it, but before she went inside she turned as closed her eyes, feeling the warmth of the sun soaking into her skin. With a sad little smile, she turned and entered the dwelling.
