Almost like highlights but they seem to glow and somehow they don’t look out of place. [u][b]Eye Color:[/b][/u] Soft lilac purple [u][b]Personality:[/b][/u] [u]Warmhearted:[/u] Leda will appear as if she looks down on people sometimes. She doesn’t smile when not being talked to but she does have a habit of looking down at the ground. As well as her small amount of shyness. Leda is likely one of the kindest people you’ll ever meet. Far [i]too[/i] kind even. She won’t think about things like revenge if you hurt her. She’ll try to think of ways to get you to forgive her though she did nothing. Apparently this led to hatred from others though. If you’re mean to her, she will still greet you with a kind smile. [u]Optimistic:[/u] Leda seems to look at the brighter side of a lot of things. She loves to be happy and doesn’t want to be pulled down. It scares her. That’s why she does her best to appear as optimistic as she can. Well, not really appear as much as simply be optimistic. Most can’t tell that she is just by seeing her. Leda tries her best to make others around her happy and hopes that it pays off. [u][b]Background:[/b][/u] Leda was born near a seemingly beautiful lake called “Crowning glory”. It was a truly spectacular place. Her parents were both swans and swans are quite a rare sight nowadays. Most have them stay out of sight, staying put in the few oasis’s they can find. The village she lived in didn’t hold many people her age but even the kids that were there, she rarely spoke to them. Usually surrounding herself with her parents and trying her best to benefit them. The kids in her town weren’t very fond of her. She was seen as rude and apparently they felt that she thought she was inferior to them. Acting as a “Goody two shoes” far too much for their liking. However, they still didn’t like her even when she was kind to them. They constantly picked on her, getting even worse as she smiled at their pranks and bullying. She simply went home and took care of her dear parents. Leda wanted to make them proud of her. Leda’s amount of respect and admiration for her parents was very high. They were quite famous around the town. Her father was a man born into royalty. A higher up but he acted like he was nothing special. He constantly helped out around the village and made sure that everyone was happy. While being oblivious to the treatment her daughter was receiving. Leda’s mother, on the other hand was a fierce swan that often fought with humans. She was a warrior. Her mother won many battles and came back home with a smile on her face everyday. She worked as a blacksmith usually. Leda decided to come to the school to hopefully make her parents proud. They always taught her things through books and private lessons but she wants to take care of herself more and not have to lean on them. Besides, she understands that she owes them. Leda does not have any hatred towards humans really. Her mother never spoke bad about them. She simply fought with them. Leda was taught that hatred was the same as evil and it would lead only to your own corruption. For Leda, after she graduated, she wants to become a doctor. She wants to help others around her. Leda’s father has leukemia. He is a lost cause but he lives his life by caring for others. She admires him for this. Her father always said “What if evil doesn't really exist? What if evil is something dreamed up by man, and there is nothing to struggle against except out own limitations? The constant battle between our will, our desires, and our choices?” With this, he wanted her to not be held back by him. Her dream is to become a doctor for her parents to see and hopefully make them proud.
