She has a graceful posture and her movements are all mostly careful, fluid and sweeping. She is about 5'5" with long, thick dark hair down to just below her hips. Sometimes there are stray blades of grass caught in the tips of her hair, and occasionally even small leaves. It's almost impossible for her to brush all the tangles out, though her hair is maintained adequately well. She wears sundresses more often than not, though the one constant despite the attire she chooses is a little necklace of black cord around her neck with a 'pendant' consisting of a little clear lipgloss tube filled with a pale green paste. It can immediately be seen that she enjoys the outdoors and being in the sun from the light tan, even on her dark skin. A little bit of chubbiness gathers on her thighs, hips, chest and upper arms that she's conscious about. She can be seen smiling at everyone - and everything - and it is very, very rare for her dark eyebrows to knit together in anger or frustration. It seems her two most prominent emotions are contentment first, followed by curiosity. Melancholia falls in line as a much, much further behind third. [/indent] [color=8EE5EE]𝗔𝗳𝗳𝗹𝗶𝗰𝘁𝗶𝗼𝗻:[/color] [indent]She was admitted not too long ago for surgery on a freak ovarian cyst that nobody in her family realised was there until it became obvious to the point where she woke up one night feverish and screaming in pain. They let it sit for a day and with normal medicine not working as they had hoped, they rushed her to Axis Mundi for treatment. Thankfully, she was a couple of days into recovery and being up on her feet and walking again. This makes it so that she can move rather slowly at the moment, and even if her stitches are dissolvable, there's a risk of them opening up if she exerts herself with things such as running, jumping or climbing. It also explains why she cannot wear more than sundresses for the moment, and nothing quite too tight or body-hugging under the waist. [/indent] [color=8EE5EE]𝗣𝗲𝗿𝘀𝗼𝗻𝗮𝗹𝗶𝘁𝘆:[/color] [indent]Marianne likes to think of herself as a makeshift Florence Nightingale, although nursing isn't her speciality and there's not much her reach encompasses beyond herbal remedies. That being said, she is fully confident in her work, believing that the right medicinal herb concoction can be a cure (albeit working in the long-term) for anything. She believes in it almost religiously, and this unfortunately clouds her mind and judgement when other matters that may need more immediate medical attention or artificially synthesised medicine are concerned. Adhering to her self-professed title, she possessed the quality of diligence as a nurse (as is required to maintain a herb garden) so is very careful to check things, and quick to find differences or faults from a previous scene. Otherwise, she is gentle and kind, often seen smiling. She can be very forward if something runs by her thoughts and tends not to get flustered easily, but usually it's a case of her being a little slow to register the situation. She loves things of beauty and especially being outside, having a particular fondness for almost all kinds of flowers. This extends from flora to fauna, as she adores all animals, especially those in nature (that being said, in a lot of cases, the more frightened, timid or wilder ones don't particularly adore her back.) Her speech is slow and methodical, and she seems to need to focus really hard on particularly complex problems. She isn't adverse to asking for help though, and may be naive in her beliefs (which she strongly preaches to everyone time and time again) that there's a little bit of good in everyone in the world, no matter who they are. [/indent] [color=8EE5EE]𝗧𝗿𝗶𝘃𝗶𝗮:[/color] [indent]- The other members of her family consist of her parents, her older sister and their two dogs (one for each daughter, or so their parents claimed.) Marianne has a mixed Border collie called Dahlia, whereas her sister has a mixed Saluki called Diana. - A quick internet search of her would direct you to very simple information about her, such as old student class list names on school websites. Not much more seems apparent about Marianne Roche. - She is a bit of a romantic and has a soft spot for otome-games. - She likes to participate in online forums discussing life, passions, ambitions and dreams. She prefers to express herself online through text than having to speak in person, a trait of which she is disappointed in herself. Despite this, she doesn't have a massive presence on traditional social media; being tagged in pictures more than tagging others, nothing much more strange than a college student's life would look like. - She drinks a lot of tea. Coffee makes her turn her nose up judgementally. - She likes sweet things and flavourful cooking. As a picky eater, she sometimes refuses to eat or eats very little if the food is too bland. On the flip side, she can tend to overeat when it's to her liking. - She speaks in a definite accent despite having fluent control over the English language. It can be traced to Moroccan-French.
