``CONSTANCE RAVEN HAWK
The lights go out all around me, one last candle to keep out the night. And then the darkness surrounds me, I know I’m alive, but I feel like I’ve died. And all that’s left is so accept that it’s over, my dreams ran like sand through the fist that I made. I tried to keep on, but I just grow colder…I feel like I’m slipping away. After all this has passed, I still will remain. After I’ve cried my last, there’ll be beauty from pain. Though it won’t be today, someday I’ll hope again, and there’ll be beauty from pain.
You will bring beauty from the pain.
The christened me CEARA/CEA and I’ve fought through SEVENTEEN summers. They say I’m SILLY, CREATIVE, KIND and I’m not planning to change any time soon. I read carefully and I have found that the magic words are admin edit. Many masks hang upon my castle wall, but I hide behind CEARA MINDELAN, GABRIEL CAMUS, DEMYTH(DEMY) CHALFON and I’ve been playing this game of Risk for FOUR YEARS and people say I’m d*** good at it.

FAMILYConstance loves her family greatly, though she may not always agree with the things they say or do. Her sister Diamond is someone she has to actually make an effort to get along with, but she still loves her. However, Constance isn’t actually all that close to her parents, instead keeping her distance. While she does love them, she has always known that Diamond was the favorite, and feels bitter towards both her sister and her parents for that. She’s been feeling especially bitter towards Diamond as of late, thinking that she is having an affair with Prince Peregrine, who she has a giant crush on.

QUIET KIND SHY DETERMINED RECKLESS
FULL PERSONALITYConstance is a very sweet girl, most of the time. To people she likes, respects or thinks as the same class as herself, she is very kind and gentle. To the people that she thinks of as ‘beneath her’, she is not usually unkind, but she is not overly friendly, either. Depending on her mood, she can act slightly snobbish to these people at times. However, Constance has been known to have wild mood swings at times.
When Constance wants attention, which doesn’t happen very often (unless she’s around Peregrine), she can be reckless. It’s not unheard of for her to climb onto high places to try show off, and because of her bad balance, it’s also not unheard of for her to fall off this high place and hurt herself, though not usually very badly, as she never seems to learn from her mistakes. Despite this, Constance isn’t actually stupid, and she usually only likes to say her opinion in anything if either someone asks her, or she feels she has something important to say.
Constance is also very shy at times, and she gets embarrassed easily.

APPEARANCEConstance is a very petite woman, standing at only 5’2” and weighing only ninty-five pounds. She doesn’t have the sort of muscle that her sister has. She has long, sandy brown hair, and light brown eyes. Her skin is very fair and marks easily.
By ways of attire, Constance will wear anything that’s pretty. It doesn’t really matter to her if it’s fancy material or not, so long as it’s pretty in her opinon. She can usually be found wearing either a dress or a skirt and a blouse.

Distinguishing Marks[/color]A few barely noticeable scars all over her arms from training to fight. They’ve faded with time.
Clothing[/color]Alright, now here is where Constance gets a little weird. While she likes looking pretty and like a lady, she is also a little paranoid and overly cautious. So the thing she likes to wear most is a dress or a skirt with skin tight clothes underneath, which she makes sure stays out of sight unless she actually needs to fight. She usually keeps a dagger in a sheath on her thigh, but other than that she is usually unarmed.

FULL HISTORY Constance Hawk was born to a man of the Hawk clan and a woman of the Owen clan. Before she was born, her mother and father decide to raise their daughters a non-traditional Scoailte way. They would be taught to fight, but more importantly, in her parents’ opinion, they would be taught how to act like and be suitable noble women of the court.
Like her sister, at the age of seven Constance was apprenticed by a knight named (random name) Rowan Fairheart. While he was usually very kind and sweet, when it came to knowing how to defend yourself, he was very strict and had strong beliefs. Constance got along with him well most of the time, and she learned a lot about the art of fighting from him, but it came at a price. Rowan never worried much about hurting her during their little battles to teach her, and because of this Constance has many scars, most on her arms, from being cut with a sword.
She knew from the start that she didn’t want to be a fighter like Diamond, but still she refused to give up. She wanted to honour her parents’ wishes, and she couldn’t let Diamond beat her at this too. However, at the age of thirteen she’d had it and she quit, ending her training at that age. So while she does know how to fight, she’d never been all that great at it, and she didn’t know everything about fighting, of course.
For the next three years, she’d dedicated herself to learning how to be the perfect noblewoman. This she enjoyed a lot more than fighting. She rarely swears or even speaks without being spoken to, and when she does speak she is always quiet and usually formal. Of course, this slips sometimes, like if she is feeling very emotional or is scared, for whatever reason.
Another thing was that from a very young age, even before Diamond and Peregrine became really close friends, she’d had a crush on Peregrine. That meant she’d had a crush on him for just about all her life, starting since she was just a toddler. She’d always been a bit jealous of Diamond for being so close to the Prince, but lately her feelings for Peregrine have grown, as well as her bitter feelings towards Diamond. Not only because she has a crush on him, but because she believes that if they should fall in love and she was to marry him, it would put her in favour with her parents over Diamond, something she’d always wanted. She’s determined to spend more time with Peregrine and get him to actually notice her, and if that doesn’t work…well, while she has thoughts of what she could do, she’ll worry about that later, if getting him to like her on her own doesn’t work.

Role Playing Sample>>
Constance sighed heavily as she walked down the long hallway, her sandy brown hair held back from her face in a pony tail. She wore a pretty light pink dress that clung to her slim figure around the torso, and then spread out when it got to her legs, so that it became slightly poofy. Under the dress she wore skin-tight trousers and tank top, with a knife sheathed on her thigh. Hey, a girl had to be ready for anything, didn't she? Not that she expected to need to use the knife, or to have her pretty dress get in the way of anything she might have to do that day, but you never know, right?
So what was she doing? Basically, seeing as she was bored out of her mind, she was just wandering around her home and trying to think of something to do. She wondered for a moment where her sister Diamond was, but forced that thought out of her mind. Why should she care where Diamond was? She was probably off with her new lover, or something like that. Of course, her new lover being Peregrine Alexander. She suspected Diamond had realized that she had a crush on the Prince and had decided to go after him herself, just to spite her. Heck, Constance wouldn't put something like that past her sister.
She looked up sharply as she heard she sound of footsteps before her, only to have a maid walk quickly by her, her eyes cast downward. Constance frowned and stopped, watching the maid. "Hey, you, wait a moment." She called, wondering whether she should remember this maid's name. She never had paid much attention to the servant wandering around the place. Maybe she should have? The maid stopped quickly and turned slowly to look at her, the maid's eyes fixed on Constance's pretty matching pink shoes. "Y-Yes, milady?" She stuttered. Constance frowned once more, wondering whether she was really that scary. She was no where near as scary as Diamond was...at least, she didn't think so. Still, she couldn't help but think of herself as being above this maid, and any other peasants, commoners...things like that.
She held her head high, looking down on the maid slightly. "Where is my sister, Diamond?" She asked, and while her voice wasn't unkind, there was nothing especially friendly about it, either. Maybe Diamond would have some idea of something they could do...alright, that wasn't the only reason she was asking the maid where she was. She also did want to see if her suspicions of her being with the Prince was right. "I-I believe she is with P-Prince Peregrine, at his home, m-milady." The maid stuttered, her eyes still fixed on Constance's shoes. Constance sighed loudly once again. "Alright, thank you." She said before turning and walking away, not looking back at the maid again.
So she'd been right. Diamond was with Peregrine. Again. She couldn't help but feel that this confirmed her suspicions of the two secretly being together. She resisted the urge to burst into tears, and the urge to slam her fist into the wall. Why couldn't Peregrine notice her for once? Heck, she went out of her way to put herself and Peregrine in the same place, give her a chance to speak with him, and while he'd never been overly unfriendly with her, he didn't treat her the way he treated Diamond. He probably just saw her as being Diamond's younger sister, and that was it. Well...she'd just have to try harder to be noticed, then, wouldn't she?
A determined smile came to her face as soon as she'd made that decision, and she looked up, spotting another maid further down the hallway she'd just turned into. She hurried down the hall towards her. This time she actually tried to put a name with the woman's face, for she did recognize her, but for the life of her the name escaped her. "Err, excuse me, you..." She called, smiling slightly as the maid looked up. "Please inform my parents that I will be going to the castle to...look for Diamond." She told her, and then turned and hurried off before the maid could agree or disagree to her request.
