Name: Selena Diana Artemis Gender: Female Age: 22 [url=http://tektek.org/avatar/54752980][img]http://imageshack.us/a/img31/3986/s89l.png[/img][/url] [url=http://tektek.org/av/654642][img]http://imageshack.us/a/img823/5674/3usy.png[/img][/url] Appearance: Standing at exactly 6'0", Selena towers over many other girls. She doesn't go into the sun all to often, claiming it's bad for your skin, so her skin is pale as ivory a result. She has a slim and lean figure, with decently sized breasts (Big enough to have cleavage, but not so big that they get in the way.) She has black hair that reaches to her mid back, and bangs that are swept to the side that frame her face. She does not feel the need to put her hair up very often, prefering to keep it down, and kept together with something on her head. Her eyes are almond shaped, and are a light shade of blue. She doesn't wear too much make up outside of pageants, apart from red lipstick and blue eyeshadow on occasion, as well as concealer, should it be necessary. She puts a lot of effort into maintaining her appearance, and she makes sure to keep her face clear of any blemishes, and to maintain a good weight. Selena likes fashion, and likes to dress well. She often wears fancy clothes made by famous designers. However, as she has to wear fancy dresses regularly due to her pageant background, she usually prefers to be a bit more casual in her downtime. Her regular outfit consists of a short sleeved pink dress made of silk that has dark pink stripes going diagonally across it, with lace around the shoulder area. The dress is a bit short on it's own, so she wears black leggings underneath that reach to just below her knees. She wears high heels on stage rather often, so outside of pageants, she wears a comfortable pair of black slippers to keep her feet from getting sore. She wears a white necklace around her neck that has three pink stones attached to it. On her head, she wears a simple pink headband, as well as a silver hairpin shaped like a crescent moon. She carries her things in a pink and black shoulder bag. Personality: Selena's personality can be summed up in two parts, Selena the Beauty Queen, and the real Selena. Selena the beauty queen is exactly how you would expect a girl who does pageants is supposed to act like. She is as sweet as can be, and often has a smile on her face. She is kind to everyone, and is practically the epitome of goodness, always putting the needs of others ahead of her own. Beauty Queen Selena doesn't have a mean bone in her body, and wouldn't hurt a fly. She's has very feminine tastes, and always acts always prim and proper like a real lady at all times. Most of that is an act she puts on because that's what people want to see. The real Selena is vain and arrogant. She often overestimates herself and underestimates others. She will not admit to making a mistake if she makes one, and will blame something or someone else when things don't go her way. Selena is not shy in the least, and she often finds fault with others, and is quite willing to point them out in a blunt manner. (Though, she can't stand when someone does the same to her, and will get upset and ignore their criticism.) Selena values beauty, appearances mean everything to her. She can often be seen studying her reflection in any reflective surface available. She is also quick to judge others, and she looks down on those she believes to be beneath her. (And that's a lot of people.) Selena is quite a Diva. She loves the fame that winning such a title has brought her, and loves being in the spotlight. She can't stand when someone else is getting more attention than her, and when that happens, she'll attempt to do something to upstage the other person. She despises dirt and ugliness with a passion. She hates sports, physical labor, camping, or anything that could possibly get her dirty and ruin her image. If forced to do them, she will complain. Something else she can't stand, bugs (Including Spiders.) Butterflies and Moths are fine, it's the ants, worms, cockroaches, etc. she can't stand. Beauty Queen Selena isn't completely fake though. She is extroverted, and likes people. When her gaurd is down, she is generous, and can be a pleasant person to be around. It's just hard to tell when it's an act and when she's being sincere most of the time. History: Selena was born in New York City, and has lived there most of her life. She was born the only child of one of the richest and most famous families in the realm. From the time she was a young girl, her socialite mother (who was also named Selena Artemis) entered her daughter in beauty pageants like she had been, wanting her daughter to follow in her footsteps. Right away, Selena loved dressing up, being the center of attention, and all that pageants entail. Although she didn't win her first pageant, she did very well, and placed very high. She continued entering in pageants throughout her childhood into her teen years, and even well into her college years. With coaching from her mother, she managed to do very well, and even won a few titles. Selena loved all the attention and praise she got from her mother, other contestants parents, and the pageant judges, which started to go to her head. Most of the other kids she went to school didn't care for her condescending attitude, and treated Selena with indifference, and she had few friends as a result. Selena didn't care what they thought, believing that they were just jealous of her good fortune, and that she was better than them anyway. Her goal in life was to be a star, and no one was going to get in the way. Finally, after years of practice, at the age of 22, she won the Miss New York competition. In doing so, she earned the right to compete in the Miss USA Pageant, and after winning that, she managed to become Miss. Universe. Now, as the reigning Miss Universe, she became a celebirty overnight, and finally achieved the fame she sought. Everything was going well, at least...it should've been. Every night, Selena has had a horrible sense of regret that keeps her up for long hours, as well as intense feelings of loneliness when she's by herself. She's tried all kinds of things to relieve these feelings, but they keep coming back. She doesn't know why, she didn't do anything wrong.
