Appearence:

Odette's hair is a naturally pale blond wavy mess when she's in her house. Her mother insists on her straightening or curling it or something nice before she goes anywhere, because god forbid she should look unkempt. Honestly, that is such a hassle and a waste of time that usually Ode will just throw her hair up in a quick messy bun or a braid. Her hair is one of her least favorite attributes. The rest of her family has a nice dark brown hair, well except for Danny who has golden blond hair, golden hair for the golden child she supposes. Of course she is stuck with her great great grandmothers dull pale blond hair, just her luck right?

Her eye's now they were a sight to behold. In the light they resembled pools of gold with a subtle hint of green. While her hair set her apart from her family in a bad way, her eyes had always been her treasure among a family of deep dark brown eyes. Instead of wearing her glasses most of the time Odette will wear her contacts instead. This is a choice that her mother did not have to oppress upon her. Rare occasions forced her to wear her glasses, namely when her mother forgot to order her contacts.

Dette's body would come across as pretty lanky, but she does have a small amount of lean muscle. There really was no reason for her to have much muscle, sports were not her thing, books were and they didn't really require much muscle. On her right shoulder there is a scar from when she was a child, and her ears are pierced twice. As for clothes, usually she wears conservative clothing: jeans, t-shirts, hoodies, sweaters. The brands of what she wears vary depending on if she bought it for herself, or if her mother bought it for her. Because of this her outfits tend to clash a bit, but that really doesn't bother her, Odette never really did have the best fashion sense.

Personality:

CURIOUS
Odette strives to know at least something about everything. She likes knowing how things work, and what makes them work. Often she will do whatever she can to try and find out what she can. Also Dette asks her friends multiple questions about new things. Some of the time they find this extremely annoying, but they know she means no harm. Besides, curiosity didn't really kill the cat.

BLUNT
Who would have guess that quiet miss Odette was really blunt. . She says want she thinks, with out thinking of the consequences. In her mind honesty is key, even if it hurts a little. Of course she knows when too far is too far, and can stop herself, which she does frequently during school. This is another quality of hers that causes her to get in trouble. Ode never means harm by her words, but others can’t see that sometimes, she supposes.

GUARDED
Odette has very thick, high walls that people have to overcome to really get close to
her. People will not be able to get to know her easy. Rarely will she show much emotion, and even more rare is seeing her cry. Emotions just let people get hurt easier, and Detts's guarded personality lessens those emotions, and the possibility to be hurt. Sometimes it makes it hard to have true friends, or a lasting relationship, but it's better than being hurt right?

PROTECTIVE
This girl here is very protective of those who are close to her. She doesn't like it when new people step in and try to get close with her friends. Constantly she worries about them getting hurt by some one, or even worse losing them to someone else. Who would blame her though? Odette knows what it is like to feel like no one is on her side and that's not something she liked very much. There are times though when a person will be able to break through her protectiveness, but that's only if she likes you. Good luck with that one.

JEALOUS
It's very easy for Ode to become jealous of someone. She likes to be the best of the best and when she cant be it just about tears her apart inside. When people have something she doesn't or even worse something she wants she will stop at just about nothing until she herself has it, or something even better. She is very competitive and doesn't take losing to anyone very well.

EASY-GOING
Odette is not the type to try to stir up a vicious storm of things like fights with people, or crazy things like that. Usually she's not one to go out and start an adventure, but if a friend wants her to join, she'll gladly go. Most of the time she just goes with whatever her friends are doing at the time, with in reason of course. Dette doesn’t like to over step boundaries because she knows that they are there for a good reason; and that reason is to keep her and others safe. And safety is key, right?

FRIENDLY
There aren't many people she doesn't get along with. She's not one to judge some one right off the bat. They always have a chance to show their real colors. Unlike her dad first impressions aren't everything to her. Now if you screw up with your chance, well you brought it upon yourself. Ode doesn't push people away unless she is scared she is getting too attached. Even with her enemies it’s hard to hold a grudge for too long, unless you really did something horrible or mean. Safe to say, once you prove yourself to her, you're stuck with her.

INNOVATIVE
Of course she's innovative, what would that surprise you. I mean she is the daughter of a software designer. Now, she's not as good as her dad, but she can do quick work with little supplies. A lot of times it's a good thing too because usually Odette is the one who bails her and her friends out of any trouble they get in. Sometimes she even throws little things she comes up with by her dad, but only her best ones. Ninety-five percent of the time, it gains her some major points with her dad, and gives her something to throw in Danny's poor little face.

History:

"Story of my life, well let's see. I guess I should start with my parents. My dad is a computer geek. He's rich too, meaning, you guessed it, I'm an heiress, of sorts. But anyway, back to my dad. His work means a lot to him, so he's not home often. Really I don't see him much. The longest I've seen or spent time with him is probably when we went on a family trip to Jamaica. Holidays and birthdays are really the only other time we really see him. Even then though he has his cell in his hand. Don't get me wrong, he's a great guy, but he's just a little to wrapped up in his work at times. He's where I get my brains from though. Seriously, my mother is the classic trophy wife. Her and dad met back in high school. At graduation my dad proposed to her. She was so surprised, but she said yes right away. After that she decided not to even go to college. As dad worked his but off in college my mom worked some little odd jobs. Once dad came into some money, mom quit her job. Everything now is all about money and appearances, and all that stupid stuff. Like I said grade-A trophy wife. No brians to be found there.

"Oh and I have two brothers Daniel and Michael. Daniel, I don't even know what to say about him. He's the oldest of us kids at nineteen years of age. When dad retires he's the one who is going to take over the business. Fun stuff right. Well I don't really like him all too much cause he thinks he's better than me and that I'm stupid just because I'm a girl. I swear sometimes I just want to deck him. What?! He deserves it. I'm just as smart as him if not smarter. Then there's cute little Michael. Mikey is the cute little brother of my dreams, well except when he follows Danny around like a lost puppy. The good thing is Danny usually ends up flipping on the poor kid here and he comes running right back over to his nice and calm big sister. See there are benefits of being the only sane one in your family. More people love you then.

"I guess you want my story now then huh? Well, I was a planned baby in a way. Mom and dad knew they wanted another kid, but they wanted another boy, and look what they got, me, and I'm quite obviously not a boy. They loved me just the same though. I was born on a leap year in 1992, so if you want to be technical I'm only really four years old. I was a healthy baby, nothing out of the ordinary. There are tons of pictures of the four of us, mom, dad, Danny, and I from when I was little. Mom used to dress me up in these crazy girly outfits, it was pretty ridiculous.

"Just like any other kid thought I grew up pretty normally. Always asking questions about new things and wanting to know more. When I was three, my mom got pregnant again with Mikey. I wasn't really bothered by it but boy Danny sure was. He was probably worried that Mikey would try to steal his place as first boy of the family. It's stupid really because no one could deny him the fact that he was the first born. He's lost a few marbles I've concluded.

"I continued to grow up like a normal child from a wealthy family. I received everything I wanted, had the best schooling, and tons of friends. Later I learned that not all of them were real. Turns out some kids just used me because I'm smart. That's when I started trusting people less and less. But any way, when I was about six or seven, mom and dad went on a business trip somewhere and Aunt Katie came to watch Danny, Mikey, and I. Boy was it a blast. I think that was the first time Danny and I had ever had actual fun together.

"So it was a Saturday, and Danny and Aunt Katie were still asleep, but Mikey came into my room asking me to get him some hot milk. I sighed, reluctant, but got out of the bed and headed downstairs to make him some warm milk. Now remember I was only six or seven at the time. I poured some milk into a cup and put it into the microwave for two minutes. When it was done I popped open the door and grabbed the milk. Well to my startling conclusion it was super hot so I ended up throwing the glass over my shoulder. Some of the burning hot milk landed on my shoulder and burned me really bad. That's why I have the scar on my shoulder.

"Enough of my side stories, back to what matters. As the kids grew up, we all developed different personalities. Danny was the perfect son my parents had always dreamed of. While Mikey was just such a cute little angel. Me on the other hand, well I was a hand full. I didn't do one lady like thing like my mother wanted me too, all I wanted to do was gain more knowledge. She wanted me to be a trophy wife for some one one day, but I was having none of that.

"When high school came around I was sent to Hilliard, just like Danny had been before me. It was okay there. A lot of people would just refer to me as "Danny's baby sister" instead of my actual name. I didn't do much to stop them though, they all knew I was really smart, and that they could use it against me. Which of course no one hesitated to do.

"Now I'm a sophomore and Hillard and Lincoln have combined. I don't really mind the change, it just opens the doors for more people to try to walk all over me. What they don't know is that it won't be as easy as they expect anymore."

Sample Rp:

Dette sipped her tea casually. She hated the fact that he was on tour with them. That stupid boy who she actually thought she could have something with, screwed her over after having sex with her. A small smile spread across her face remembering that night. It was a good time, even Odette couldn't deny that, but what he had done was just plain horrible. 'Tour goal one: Stay as far away from Oli as humanly possible,' she thought to herself taking a gulp of her drink. That couldn't be too hard to do, right?

It's guys like Oli that make her never want to be in a relationship again. Of course she didn't want to be alone for the rest of her life, but when guys are assholes and screw girls over, it just makes Odette want to hit something. The good news is she has never hit anyone for that reason, even though a good few deserve it and he was the prime suspect. Looking around again Ode spotted quite a few good looking guys. If they looked her way she gave them a cute smile, and if not oh well they were still cute to look ate.

Her worries about Oli were fading and her drink was finished. 'Another one sounds good,' she thought. After seeing him she need something that would calm her nerves. But of course just as Dette was about to get up and grab another drink he sat down across from her. In an instant and glare was evident in her eyes and her smile that was on her lips disappeared. "Hello, Odette replied curtly. This was not what she had planned when she decided to come get a drink.

Accepting the fact that Oli was sitting here in front of her Dette figured she might as well be some what personable. Besides she had to prove in some way that she was better than the slime he was. The hatred was still in her eyes, but the glare was softened and a small polite smile played on her lips. "Yeahh I know, a really long time. It's been great," she said hoping he got the hint that she really didn't want to be talking to him, not now or ever for that matter. "Oh thanks! Yeah the crowd was great, she said smiling happily, that low blow he delt her was just going to be thrown right back in his face. Odette may be quiet, but she knew how to put someone in their place when it was needed. "Oh yeah the band was great, for the most part. But your vocals, well lets just said I've heard you sing a lot better than that at other shows." Truth was that as always Oli sounded great, but telling him that would just inflate his already oversized ego. That was the last thing anyone on this tour needed, especially Odette.
