While one would have to be blind to claim that the girl is objectively unattractive, she isn't what one would call a 'natural looker.' Possessing the tall, slender build of a model of the Old World, Lucy might be some man's dream come true. Still, she simply doesn't possess the youth and beauty granted to Lucania. Years of substance abuse have physically weathered her beyond her age. Lucy's brown eyes have an almost lazy droop to them; they, along with her aquiline nose, give her face a it's very distinctive appearance. She tends to wear clothing that make fashion statements complimenting her taller, lean muscled form, as opposed to the evening gowns and blouses that Lucania is known for. She re-purposes the casual wear of the Old World, to hide her scars and her sickly lack of weight. Another difference between Lucy and her sister is make-up. While the 6th Castalia is known to wear lipstick and eyeliner in moderation, Lucy tends to cake herself in the stuff. This is to hide the black and sunken eyes of fighting and malnourishment, and to cover up scarring of a constantly bleeding nose.To the untrained eye, a fully made-up Lucy, wearing a dress, might just be mistaken for Lucania.

Lucy's Diary] [center][h2]Lucy's Stupid Fucking Diary[/h2][/center] [i][b]my name is lucy.[/b] everyone calls me that, including me, i dunno why? they named me lucina. the *fat bastard would have named me garbage if lucania would have let him. but she wouldnt, so he did the next best thing. he just took out an 'a' from her name and switched some letters around. thats all I am to him, anyway-- less than her, a corruption of his 'real daughter.' im not whining here!! Hes fucking told me this to my face [right](*fat bastard=Dad)[/right] im not fronting when i say i dont care tho so like, lucania is making me write this stupid diary because shes a fucking nerd obsessed w/ pasttimes stuff an family records or whatever? the fat bastard made her do audiologs a while back. (unsurprisingly he gave no shits if no one remembered i existed) lucania cared tho, so i guess thats why she's making me do this shes practically looking over my shoulder as i write. its kinda creepy she says my spelling is alright but my punctuation and capitalization could use 'some work' ugh, whatevr. listen: 17 yrs ago-- one husband ago, 250,000 blunts ago, 80,000 cigarettes ago, 5,000 pills ago, 3,000 quarts of booze ago, at least a few kilos ago and more stupid fights than i can count ago... 17 yrs ago is when i was born. lucania was 10 or 11, her mom had just left and the fat bastard gave up all human decency in his impotent grief-- lucania looks really impressed that i kno that word right now... god, why did you make my sis such a fucking nerd? i was born of the fat bastards whore binge i kno he knows who it was he got preggers, but he wont tell me. which leads to a weird situation where i may have been in a fucking fight with my mom at the bar-- lucania says thats just like this thing called oedipus now shes changing her mind and says it might be electra ugh omfg do you see what it is i have to deal w/ on a daily? i joke, but i do love her. shes p much my only friend, and honestly shes more of a mother and father to me than that fat bastard ever could be. even if shes an uptight spaz sometimes i find myself worried for her more often than id care to mention, which is whole fuckin lot. shes got this ambition, but its like... wrong? like, shes pretty much just some wildcard for fat bastard to use like a pawn, but even on her own she likes throwing herself into danger and thinking up these schemes and gmabits and whatnot to 'expand the family business' i dont get it. its not for the money, i think. she dresses for appearances and she lives in the lap of the fucking luxe, but its all secondary. i know she wants some kind of glory, all the books she tells me about always have some hero asshole totally outwitting the world and making off with the loot and pussy and fame. but shes not just [s]emula[/s] copying the characters, its more like the has this drive to do something else, and she uses the pasttimes shit as inspiration but i dont get what that 'something else' is uggggggghhhhhhhh what else is there to write about i was born, lucania and maids took care of me, hmmm i had my real fight at 11 or 10, i forget. she was a few years older than me and she tried to take my drink, or something, i kicked her in the cunt, it was an ok day. after that, lucy started giving me escorts, i think she was scared someone might try to hurt me for some reason so yeah, then i just started going out at the nights and basically just do that for 7 more years and you got me now! well throw in that time paolo tricked me into getting married... but like, fuck that... seriously he had it planned, he had been getting me drunk for like a week when one night, i get really tipsy really fast one night, i think he put something in my drink-- i remember getting in a car with him header for laguna before I passed out seriously, he had a guy waiting at laguna to make it legal, in like, the government or whatever i don't get why they didn't just shoot him them or why i don't just cancel the marriage or something, but its always 'tradition this' and 'catholic that' like, i think id remember if i fucking signed up to be a catholic[/i] [center][i][b]- The text seems to stop here -[/b][/i][/center][/hider] [center][h3][color=7ea7d8]Gear[/color][/h3][/center] [color=ec008c][b]Weapons:[/b][/color] [i]No set weapon; Skilled in improvisation and unarmed combat, she prefers broken bottles.[/i] [color=ec008c][b]Armor:[/b][/color] N/A [color=ec008c][b]Purse:[/b][/color] [list][*] High-quality Bartering Ammo, Assorted Drugs (Gaen Blow(Coke), Gaen Green(Cannabis), MDMA, Meth), Cigarette Holder, Cigarettes, Flask, Matches, Make-up Kit[/list] [center][h3][color=7ea7d8]Immortalis Information[/color][/h3][/center] [color=ec008c][b]Manifested Phenomena:[/b] [/color] N/A [color=ec008c][b]Unique Abilities:[/b][/color] N/A [color=ec008c][b]Strengths:[/b][/color][list] [*] [color=a36209][b]Fat $tack$:[/b][/color] Lucy doesn't have access to the full Castalia Family fortune like Lucania, but her monthly stipend is enough to feed a small town for a year. (Yet she always manages to blow through it early) [*] [color=a36209][b]Bar Fighting Black Belt:[/b][/color] Lucy learned to fight through the oldest martial art; getting drunk and anger and fighting other drunken angry people. She started from a young age (younger than she is already) and accumulate her scars entertaining the seedier bars of Serenity. [*] [color=a36209][b]Stronger Than I Look/Popeye Drug User:[/b][/color] Lucy has a slender figure composed almost entirely of wiry muscle, surprising most combatants with the power held behind her punches. Further surprises come from the power she is able to summon when fueled in a Drug Rage.[/list] [color=ec008c][b]Weaknesses:[/b][/color][list] [*] [color=green][b]Lightening Bruiser/Glass Canon:[/b][/color] Lucy is a fast, hard hitter. Naturally then, one or two good hits tend to be enough to put her out of commission. (If she isn't on a drug rage, of course) [*] [color=green][b]Guns Don't Kill People...:[/b][/color] Lucy doesn't know how to use firearms, a result of her position of wealth and protection, as well as her own skill in CQC. [*] [color=green][b]Smoke Weed Erryday:[/b][/color] Lucy is addicted weed and several other downers. She exhibits slowly worsening withdrawal symptoms the longer she goes without using. [*] [color=green][b]You'll Cowards Don't Even Smoke Crack:[/b][/color] Lucy is addicted cocaine, crack, and several other stimulants. She exhibits slowly worsening withdrawal symptoms the longer she goes without using. [*] [color=green][b]High As A Kite In An Opium Den:[/b][/color] Lucy goes through life without thinking much, instead preferring hedonistic pleasures of the now. Leading to a personality heavily influenced by the Id, often while high. [*] [color=green][b]Now, Tell Me That Ain't [url=https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=0jOODy6en-Y]Insecur[/url]:[/b][/color] Lucy, ultimately, is extremely insecure. She sees herself as an unwanted bastard child in a family that only keeps her alive because of tradition. The one person who does love her, Lucania, is much more beautiful, intelligent, and driven to expand the family business than she is. Her cripplingly low self confidence leads her to become too paralyzed to gain the ambition she admires in her sister, as well as leading her to self-medicate heavily. [*] [color=green][b]Not The Brightest Fork in the Drawer:[/b][/color] Lucy relies on animalistic instincts for her improvisation in combat, outside of bar fights, she isn't exactly renowned for her cognitive abilities.[/list]
