Frost and cold had spread their tendril fingers over the land, leaving the Enchanted Forest covered in a veil of soft snow. The vast forest is deep and dark, even without its usual canopy of thick lush leaves, though evergreens and the like are plenty and flourishing. And in the heart of this tangled winter land is a small cottage, once covered with flowers and plants, now snuggled in snow. Its eyes warm and glowing, smoking a thin cloud of aromatic cedar, cradling an almost-princess in the heart of its warmth. She sits near the hearth and rocks slowly, a wild cat curled near her feet, a mere companion in the frozen storm that slowly sneaks through the darkening evening. A blizzard is soon to set in and the woman is hardly expecting company, which slowly trudges its way to her door.[/color] [img]http://www.walltor.com/images/wallpaper/lonely-cottage-in-snowy-mountain-175255.jpg[/img] [/i] [IMG]http://media-cache-ak0.pinimg.com/736x/e4/02/68/e40268d83c38fa1a530b0ab98e93fdaf.jpg[/IMG] [u][color=82ca9d]Name:[/color][/u] Ella Mitchrovenka [u][color=82ca9d]Age:[/color][/u] 21 [u][color=82ca9d]Gender:[/color][/u] female [u][color=82ca9d]Species:[/color][/u] Forest Nymph [u][color=82ca9d]Powers/Abilities:[/color][/u] Can speak to plants and birds, cajoling them to help her [u][color=82ca9d]Fairytale:[/color][/u] Cinderella [IMG]http://24.media.tumblr.com/36f4e0843fb89cf746e95f84cfae7e87/tumblr_mqz7lqwd1u1qakqsko1_500.jpg[/IMG] [u][color=a2d39c]Part in Story:[/color][/u] Cinderella [u][color=82ca9d]History:[/color][/u] In her tale of Cinderella, the prince was in love with another man who had perfect feet. When his lover was executed and he was made to look for a wife, and Ella happened to be wearing glass slippers. Her saw her pretty pale feet and tried to force her to marry him then and there, but instead she fled. She had no wish to be locked up in a tower like other princesses. She liked her calm quiet life of flowers and sewing and cooking. It was peaceful. So her younger stepsister took her place as Cinderella. And Ella was left to live in her father's cottage, deep in the woods, surrounded by flowers, trees and music. [u][color=82ca9d]Personality:[/color][/u] She is not as passive and obedient as everyone thinks. In fact the first prince that tried to married had a foot fetish and wanted to lock her up in his kingdom. Instead she fled and let her younger stepsister take her place, since she was more willing. Of course she is very sweet and kind, enjoying small tasks like sewing and cleaning, but that is only because people won't ask her to do things for them. Independent, she takes pride on being able to defend and take care of herself. She enjoys singing, as most do, but her singing is always in her native tongue of Russian when she wishes for the plants or birds to help her in someway.

Why else was she nicknamed 'Cinder' Ella? [/center]
