Personality:
Caelum has often been described as extremely beautiful-though this teen sees herself as anything but. She stands short, extremely short, at five foot, four inches. She is easily described as being underweight, at 96 pounds-though with her delicate, almost fragile frame, it's really no surprise she's so tiny and weighs so little. But hey now, let's get back to describing.
Going to the top; Cae has long, curly blonde hair, the type of blonde hair that others crave because of the multi-blonde hues swirled into the gorgeous coloration. Natural lighter blonde highlights give this girl's long, curly hair an almost platinum blond look. Her hair is semi-thick, and falls into curls, and waves that end at about mid back. Her face is that of a porcelain doll-correction her entire body seems to be that fragile, delicate body of a porcelain doll. She has extremely doll like features, almost angelic. Her face is seen with high cheek bones, a slightly oval shape, and about medium sized, soft pink lips. Her eyes are a soft hazel color, that changes with her mood, the time of day, and the lighting. Her eyes are more of an almond shape, with almost a 'fae' tilt to them.
She has a semi long neck that flows into delicate collar bones, and spans out into narrow shoulders. Her arms are long, thin, and willowy, and she has what are often called 'piano' fingers. Her chest sits at a gentle 'B' cup, and her waist is tiny, flaring out into slightly flared hips that give her a gentle hour glass figure. Her legs are long in her body, and are often described as the legs of a dancer. She has delicate ankles, and wrists. And her feet are considerably tiny for her generation.
When it comes to clothing-despite being an orphan-it is easy to see why she is often accidentally mistaken for one of the more 'elite' cliques. It's not just the fact she wears the most in styles, but the fact if you look at anything in her closet there isn't a single cheap, rip off in it. Her aunt is extremely careful that Caelum is only dressed with the best and the latest-in all honestly-it probably helps that her aunt and uncle are also so well off.
Many might not now this by looking at her, but this girl has a few simple piercings, as well as a tattoo. Both of her ears are pierced, but only once, and her belly button is pierced as well. And on the inside of her wrist is a tattoo, a date followed by the words 'Vidimus, Vicimus, Venimus', translating to the date of her family’s murder and the words ‘We came, we saw, we conquered’.
And finally. Along with her almost platinum blonde hair, Cae has an almost soft, light skin-that holds a tan unreasonably well. I'm talking about-this girl can go out in the sun for a few mere seconds, and come back in with a head to toe, perfect tan.
Caela’s personality is hidden by a layer of ice that keeps her locked up with in herself. But it isn’t just herself that she is afraid to hurt. She hurt someone she loved very much in the past, and wants to save herself the pain of doing that again. So a layer of ice covers her beautiful blue eyes. Her body is usually positioned for defense when she finds herself with another. But she tends to treat everyone a little differently. One look at her, and you might thing you see emotions upon her face, but look closely, puppet. They are all fakes. Caela’s emotions have been buried deep with in her a long time ago, and now she is afraid to unbury them.History:
She, as stated before, treats everyone differently.
Young ones she treat with almost delicate care, being careful to tread softly around them, and not stay to close, like she is afraid to contaminate them. But her eyes soften a lot when she looks upon their joyful innocence and youth. Though, she herself isn’t that old either. She sees what she could have been in these children, and wishes that she could preserve the fierce beauty of such innocence, so that she could remember it. Around her elders, she treads almost carefully, yet respectively. She never speaks to them, unless spoken to first(but she is also like this with anyone she meets.) She looks at them, and sees something of power. Something that should be treated with respect, because it is from the elders that the children can learn so much. Around infants and toddlers, any child from days old to finishing 5th grade, Caela is much more comfortable. She softens the most visibly to them. She loves how carefree they can be, and how fun they are to watch. She remembers often, with fondness, the memories of her own childhood. The younger teenagers, not quite as old as the 20 year old, make Caela feel slightly ashamed of herself, knowing she had acted this way as well. Cocky, over confident, and too proud. But, past is past… It is in other females that Caela has the most trust, because females tend to understand the fearful girl, and tend to give her soft words that help her feel a little more alive.. She finds it easiest to talk to females, and to let them comfort her. But it is in males that Caela often has nothing to do with. They unnerve her, and someone of them reminded her of the love she lost. She is not set at ease, and often will run away rather than remain in the company of a man alone.
Caela is a very shy young woman, and would rather be by herself then with others. She prefers to remain unseen, just a mere wall flower, un seen, un noticed. She is not fond of attention, especially that of the male genre. She is a kind soul, and tries to only look for the goodness in people. She is incredibly soft spoken, rarely raising her voice. Her patience is long, and has virtually no temper unless someone she cares about is threatened. Caela is not a fighter, one could see that when looking at the woman, and it is obvious that she would rather hurt herself(which she is known for doing) than harm another. Caela is one of the pure souls, one of the few who would be even willing to give her life for those she has pledged her loyalty to. But it is difficult for the woman to develop the trust needed in others for her to be willing to be loyal. But once you have her as a friend or companion you have her for life.
Caela is one of the few girls who don’t try throw themselves at the men. She is not a temptress at all, and resents the woman who do act like that thinking they act unholy, and shame the woman of her race. But she does tease and flirt with those whom she has long gotten the chance to know, and trust. When she is completely comfortable, it is like seeing a different woman entirely. She shines, and smiles more eagerly, and her eyes sparkle like sapphires caught in the sun. It is a miracle change that few get to see, because so many give up on her before it can happen. But there is another truth buried in the girl, her hate of herself. Though emotionless, she can’t help but hate the emotionless state she has become. She sees no future for herself, unless it is a dark one. And because she sees nothing, she doesn’t know why she should live. Caelum is at often time extremely suicidal, and it isn’t odd to discover fresh marks upon her thighs, or her wrists after she has gone threw an extremely tough time.
Cael, like any other teenager has a wide variety of likes. the problem is? Getting close enough to this girl to discover them. Cael is extremely partial to roses, having been best friends with a guy who literally used a rose as his trademark. Because of his trademark being a rose, she has come to assosiate roses with him. She also adores the rain, finding it almost soothing, and relaxing. She is one of those people that when a thunderstorm begins, will open her window and just watch it. She loves lilacs, because of their connection to her mother. Cael loves to write and read, finding them as ways to get out of this world-and into a new one were real life isn't as significant. Caela loves silence, and just being alone-for it is then that she feels the deepest connection with the rest of the world. But, what few people know is Caela's love of song. She adores to sing-and has one of those soft voices that is just made for singing. But stage fright keeps her from singing in front of an audience most of the time.
Like many teenagers-Caela also has quite the list of dislikes. But despite her not sharing her likes-she refuses to even acknowledge her dislikes-she jsut flat out avoids them. Cael hates being surrounded by groups. To many people sets her nerves at end, and she tends to get jumpy. And with large groups comes her second dislike-loud noises. Cael also despises anyone who take being rude above being polite. Cael, while liking most flowers-absolutely despises daisies and tulips, finding them dull and bland. And she is terrified of white lilies, as there was one left on each of her family members body. Cae hates the cold-and thus dislikes snow and wind. But, what many people don't know is Cae's fear of guns, and her fear of fire.
Like any other person in this world, Cael has her secrets-just like she has her faults. But, Cae's biggest secret comes in the form of her self hatred; the fact she blames herself for being the only survivor that night-that night that the rest of her family had been murdered.
Caelum was born to her parents, Felicia and Malus-on the third of June. It was light in the night when the hazel eyed, blonde came into the world. It was no surprise-however-when her family immediantly seemed to take to the adorable little girl-including her older brother-Zebulon. Zeb immediantly took on the role of 'older brother' and became a constant companion to his adorable sister.Sample Rp:
When Caelum turned five, she finally met her four year old cousin-Angel, and nine year old cousin-Constantine. Angel and Caelum insantly hit it off, become best friends, while Constantine, and Zebulon kept a watchful eye on the two little girls, as they played around the park, their dresses fluttering, and hair pulled up in pig tails. Little did Caelum know at the time just how important Constantine and his family would become to her.
Caelum and Angel soon became best friends, growing up together. When they finally reached 6th grade, they finally got permission to walk home together-as long as Constantine walked with them. The partnership started out well. Until about half way through the school year. A drive by shooting happened while the two young girls, and the older boy were walking home. Bullets clattered around them, as people screamed and gun shots echo. To this day, Cae remembers the horrified scream Con gave when Cae felt the bullet skim the side of her arm, and enter Angel's right side, followed by another in the left side of her chest. Constantine knocked into Caelum and Angel, using his body to protect them as his eyes stared at his bleeding little sister in horror. This is where Cae's memory gets blurry. She remembers the flashing lights, the people pulling her and Angel, and Constantine to a near by medical vehicle. She remembers looking into Angel's eyes as the girl weakly squeezed her and Con's hand-as she uttered 'I love you... both.' with her dying breath... and then all Cae can remember was darkness.
Eventually Cae began to close herself off, horrified and scared over the death of her best friend. However, it wasn't long until Cal found the twelve year old girl sitting alone, and asked her what was wrong. After that day-the new kid; Cal, began to hang out with Cae when every they could-and so it became that Cal soon was appointed the position of her best friend and confidant.
It was when Cae turned thirteen that she learned of the threats going around town about a serial killer that was taking down families, leaving only one member of the family alive-so that the police would know it was him. Well-at least; he left them alive... they didn't always survive after he left. His M.O. was always the same. He'd come in, wrestle the family into setting on a couch, then one by one would kill them in the next room, till one member remained. And it was never the same member. He would then make the survivor put a white lily on each of the dead family member's chest, then he would tell them to sit down on the couch, he would sprinkle the entire house with gasoline, then light the house on fire. Sometimes that last family member escaped. Sometimes... they didn't.
What Cae and her family never suspected was that they would be targeted. Cae had just gotten home, and was on the phone with Cal when the murderer burst through the front door, holding a gun. He pulled Cae from the phone and held the gun to her head, demanding everyone sit on the couch. Throwing her in the last empty spot he told the family that they would be playing a game. And then, Cae watched with wide eyes as he grabbed her brother, who was on the opposite end of the couch, and pulled him into the dining room. Both Cae and her mother cried out when they heard the gun shot. After that it went by quickly, Cae huddling in the corner of the couch as the man came and took each of the family members one by one and brought them into the dining room. First was Zebulon, then her father, then her mother... then... all that was left, was her. The man pulled at her arm, and pulled her towards the dining room, and stuffed three lilies in her hands, and told her to put them on her family. Through teary eyes, Cae was forced to lay each lily down, one on her mother; one on her father; and the last one on her brother. Finally the man sat her back down on the couch, told her that it was going to by fine, then left. She cried, until she felt the flames. wide eyed, the girl cried out, as she struggled to a window, where a fire men broke open, and quickly pulled her out. Cal was standing by the police officer, his eyes on his best friend before running to her.
When Cal had heard what was going on-because of the phone, he had listened in long enough to know to call the police-thus the fire men getting there in time to rescue Cae, but not her family. The entire house burned down, along with every piece of her family. The girl was truly orphaned-but it didn't take long for the quite, not always scared girl to remember that she still had Cal, no matter what.
Eventually she moved in with her aunt, uncle, and Constantine, where she continued to go to school, till she turned seventeen, and was told they were moving to california "To get you away from this place. Constantine too." Her aunt had told her, as she began to pack everything up. What Cael hadn't realized was how hard it would be to say good bye to her best friend.
Cal made her promise that they would always stay in contact, and that no matter what everything was going to be okay. The goodbye was bitter sweet, but Caela held onto the promise that they would meet again. In her mind-they had too.
Eventually Caela found herself moved into their new home, and the now orphan of four years was forced to start over-but it was then that she realized this was a good thing... Here, no one knew her past. Here, she wasn't the orphan whose family had been murdered by a serial killer. Here, she was just Caelum.
Caelum is now seventeen, and about to start her first year at Central, as a Junior. nervous and scared, she is prepared to make the best of it. Not just for her, but for her aunt and uncle too. She's ready to reshape her future, and attempt to move past the past.
