Name: Cara Natalia Svanhildr
Nickname:
Gender: female
Age: 14
Year: 1st
Sexual Orientation: straight, (a bit bicurious, although she would never admit it)
Relationship Status: single
Religious Beliefs: raised Catholic
Appearance/Wardrobe: Cara looks like a ballerina. She has straight, dark hair that falls just below her shoulders, and brilliant, rivetting blue eyes. Her body is so slender and graceful that she is the envy of many other girls, but her thinness betrays the hard muscles that lie under the surface. Her face is neither narrow nor round, but has smooth, rounded angles. Her skin is flawlessly smooth, and of a light, nearly-but-not-quite olive tone. She is a mere 5 feet, 2 inches tall, and weighs only 105 pounds.
Personality: Cara is outwardly a diva. She exudes confidence, beauty, and grace. Inwardly, though, she resents those with talent, like her sister. She feels that she works so hard she should be on top, while others appear to succeed with much less effort. She takes criticism to heart, no matter how obviously untrue it is. She is a perfectionist, and expects the impossible of herself, in all areas. She is somewhat shy, and seems very modest, although she won't hesitate to list her accomplishments to anyone who hints at caring. She doesn't believe she is good enough, and can sometimes be annoying about it, and seem like she's fishing for compliments. Because she feels like she's never quite good enough, she can sometimes seem cruel, or like she'll do anything to get ahead.
History: Cara Natalia and Abira Katarina were born in Moskow, Russia to Jennifer and Nikolai Svanhildr. When Cara was 4 and Abira was 5, they began taking ballet lessons. They both had a lot of talent, although everyone said Abira had more natural talent, and Cara had more work ethic. Before long they were sent to live with their maternal grandparents in London, to study at the Royal School of Ballet. There, Abira was constantly harped on for not seeming to care, but the harping was good-natured and affectionate, because she was so talented she could keep up, even with her carefree attitude. Cara, on the other hand, worked herself to insanity, and was insanely jealous of her sister's ability to skim by. The summer Abira turned 15, she got very sick with pneumonia, and doctors ordered her to go somewhere warmer for at least a year. She was sent to Four Oaks, so that she could heal under the warm, California sun, and Cara, only 14, was made to go with her.
Strengths/Talents/Skills:
-very good at ballet
-graceful
-friendly, warms up to people quickly
-very strong work ethic
-is decent at academics
-very attractive (considered by far the prettier of the two)
Weaknesses:
-perfectionistic
-jealous
-can be quite selfish at times
-kind of stinks at writing/drawing/painting
Other:
Cara was always more appreciated by her parents, due to her work ethic and drive to be great. Abira was always more appreciated by the dance instructors for her spirit, personality, and natural talent.
