[indent][indent][b]Appearance:[/b] Aimée, or as she is commonly known "Lala" is a beautiful woman. An impeccably white skin, long legs that often attract the gazes of men and a beautiful red make her look almost like a porcelain doll. But looks can be deceiving, and on Aimée`s
case, this couldn't be more accurate. Her fragile looks hide powerful and flexible muscles, thanks to being raised as a dancer and acrobat.
Experienced eyes may see behind her apparent fragility, but for most people she is just a delicate and beautiful rose.

[list]
[*]
[hider=Ring Blade]
A very unique weapon that resembles the decorated hoops she used in her dances, it uses beautiful and very complex circular movements, using the dancer's own body to give the weapon more momentum, its a very unpredictable weapon, and can be very tricky to defend. On the other hand, the nature of this weapon is so dangerous that it could literally mean dismemberment or death if used by those who don't have enough skill. She usually carries it wrapped in a red silk cloth to disguise it as only a common hoop she uses to dance.

[*] 
[hider=Stanza]
By changing her stance, she is able to support her allies with dances. Her attacks are 50% weaker while dancing and her mobility is reduced (although she can still dodge and parry attacks without breaking the dancing stance, but any other sudden movement such as running, jumping will break the stanza and its effects will stop, since they are only active while she is performing.)

These dances can be either beneficial to her allies or detrimental to her enemies (although only one dance can be performed at a given time)


[hider=Dances]
[b]Bravura & Allegro[/b] – A set of animated and lively dances that bolster friendly units morale, invigorating them.

[b]Tragedia & Terore[/b] – A set of darker, more chaotic dances which can demoralze enemies, causing fear, insecurity and intimidating them.[/hider]
[/hider]

[*] [b]Fortissimo[/b] – Using her entire body's weight and mass to build her weapon's momentum, it can deal very devastating attacks without compromising her agility. Her enemies often get surprised by the force behind her agile and fast attacks. Additionally, due to the nature of her weapon, she must use her entire body to wield it and as such cannot carry a shield, an off-hand weapon, wear any kind of armor (even boiled leather will weight her down).

[*] [b]Crescendo[/b] – The unique circular motions needed to wield the weapon make it easier for her to parry or redirect incoming attacks.

[*] [b]Accelerando[/b] – Her graceful movements hide powerful and flexible muscles which make her capable of performing very impressive acrobatic moves, giving her an uncanny agility and flexibility. Her complete lack of armor also contribute to this, making her a very difficult target to hit.

[*] [b]Dal Niente, Al Niente[/b] With her mobility, positioning means nothing, as she can use her speed, dancing movements and footwork in a battle situation to confound her enemies, making them unable to predict where she will go or from where she will attack.

[indent][indent] Aimée is very cheerful and happy. When there is a party, its almost certain she will be there dancing and being the center of attentions. At the same time, "Lala", how most people who know her by her performances, enjoys reading and unlike many people would think, is actually very intelligent and smart.
Unlike her appearance, she is very independent and has strong opinions, definitely knows how to take care of her own and has a fiery temper. She may be a beautiful rose, but surely this rose has many thorns.

	 Born and raised in a well known and very traditional itinerant troupe, the Bellerose, Aimée is used to never staying in one city for too long, she has been travelling her entire life. The more well known troupes can live very well, even without receiving too much money, as their presence in a town is always noted. Barons and important nobleman would always ask for them to present themselves at their properties, giving them food, shelter and presents. Some of the most traditional troupes (just like the Bellerose) prefer to receive presents as a payment rather than money as they don't give money too much value.

"Bellerose" is the name that the members from the troupe adopted as their own. They treat each other just like family, which they basically are. Most of the first members, which formed the troupe, had no surnames or made the choice of leaving them behind. As the time went on, they became a family with actual blood ties. With the Bellerose troupe created, many of their members developed romantic interests for one another, due to living together, acting like a family & etc. As a result, many of them married and had kids with members of the own troupe.

Being raised by actors, acrobats, dancers and storytellers Aimée was taught all those subjects, from acting to how to tell an interesting story and keep the people interested about it and of course, how to defend herself. Receiving the nickname "Lala" due to her fiery red hair and equally fiery temper, Lala grown and turned into a beautiful woman. Her agile and flexible body made her a perfect dancer and acrobat. Agile and gracious, she quickly became known. Her beauty and technique enchanted both men and women who watched her. She had the talent of brightening the mood of everyone with her dances. Nobody knew why, but her dances always had an unusual influence on people nearby. Some claim to have seem a weird birthmark faintly glowing under her clothes while she danced, but nobody knows for certain.

When Aimée turned 18, she decided to open her wings. She wanted to travel alone, have her own experiences, learn new things. Most of the young Belleroses did that, it was almost a tradition to go on their own journey when they turned 18 and after the troupe recognizing they were ready, that they had learned everything they could with them. Some spent some years travelling then went back to living with the troupe when they felt ready, others spent their entire lives traveling, meeting with the troupe from time to time, enjoying their company then going out with the wind again. When a Bellerose visited the troupe, it was always a very happy occasion. There were always new stories to tell, some of them even brought their partners to present them to the family.

Aimée received the ring blade from her mother, she was the only one who was able to wield it perfectly. The ring blade was the same weapon her mother used to dance and perform, beautiful to see, but extremely dangerous both for those nearby and for the wielder, its not only a hoop to be used in a dance, its a real and very dangerous weapon. Aimée was the only one that was deemed able to wield it, and as such, her mother passed it to her, teaching it everything she knew with it, from the complex dances to how to use it and her dance as a weapon. After one year she was now completely ready to travel alone. Every Bellerose knew how to fight really well, after all, the world isn't a nice place, and someone who lives travelling needs to know how to defend herself. There is a saying amongst those who know the Bellerose: "Never touch a rose without its consent, it doesn't matter how beautiful it may be." With this parting gift, Aimée, or "Lala" as she was commonly known started her journey. 

Her curiosity to know more about the disaster at the Blackstone Fortress and the orc attack led her to a military camp, about ten miles away from the Blackstone Fortress itself. Maybe they could tell her what happened, surely they would have interesting war stories, and maybe... only maybe someone could tell her what that weird birthmark she had on her left thigh meant. What she saw when she got nearby, was a little different from what she expected... There was a full battle going on, orcs against the humans. The noises of orders being barked, orcs screaming, the sound of swords and shields clashing, everything was too chaotic and loud, she couldn't do anything to help them right now, especially since she didn't knew they would see her as an ally in the middle of all that chaos.

And with those thoughts in mind, Aimée started her own story. What will happen after that only the time can tell.
