Name: Odette de Lohengrin Gender: Female Age: 20 Height: 165cm Status: Youngest daughter of the Lohengrin Grand Duchy (Illegitimate) Appearance Face: A classic beauty with thin, delicate features and clear, silvery skin. She has deep blue eyes that always seem shadowed and a sorrowful gaze. Her constant shrinking back gives her a poignant and fragile aura. Hair: Long platinum blonde. She usually wears it half-up, tied with a large white ribbon, letting the rest flow down. Body: A classic hourglass figure, slim yet with distinct curves in all the right places. Attire: A handcrafted white dress dense with lace. The upper chest and arms are sheer lace, and a red rose-shaped jewel ornament sits at the center of her neck. Background To avoid the notice of the Grand Duke, who values the family's prestige above all, the Grand Duchess and Odette's step-sisters subtly and sophisticatedly pressured her mentally. They never assigned her a single personal maid or servant, forcing her to process her own dresses and style her own hair. During every social season, they completely cut off her contact with the outside world under the convenient excuse that she was "recuperating due to poor health." She was provided with dresses just enough to not disgrace the family's dignity, but they were always styles from seasons long past. At family dinners, she was subjected to sharp rebukes like "An illegitimate child eating the Grand Duke's food," "You lack grace," and "You are lowly just like your mother," making mealtimes a form of torture for her. Soothing her loneliness by reading discarded books and ledgers in the library amidst the neglect, she became knowledgeable in many fields. Traits Despite her high intelligence, constant mental oppression has left her completely unaware of her own abilities, believing "I should be grateful just for the family taking me in" and "I am always lacking and undignified." Having no maids, she is exceptionally skilled with her hands from repairing her own clothes and doing her own hair. Extreme fear of the 'Day of Many Leaves': As soon as she turned 20, she was chosen as a sacrificial lamb to be pushed before the public. She is suffering from intense terror on the day of the festival, fearing the gaze of the dense crowd below the balcony and the possibility that she might be considered a burden once again by whoever catches the bouquet. Speech & Mannerisms Speech: Extremely passive and soft polite speech. Her voice is small and often trembles; she has a habit of looking down and avoiding eye contact out of nervousness. Mannerisms: She humbles herself to an extreme degree and fears inconveniencing others to the point of phobia. If someone shows her even a small kindness, she apologizes repeatedly or acts overwhelmed with gratitude. Personality Despite harsh mental abuse, she has not lost her kindness toward others and small creatures. She cannot pass by an injured animal or plant. Believing her very existence is a disgrace and a hindrance to the family, she turns any unreasonable rebuke or treatment back on herself, blaming her own perceived inadequacies rather than resisting. Likes Books and Records: The books and ledgers that were her only comfort in her isolated space. Warm Sunlight and Plants: Small patches of grass and wildflowers in the corner of the garden where she could spend time alone away from cold glares. Quiet, Calm Spaces: Peaceful places where no one rebukes her or makes her feel self-conscious. Dislikes The Day of Many Leaves and the Bouquet Custom: The day used to legally discard her, a moment of terror being pushed toward a place where more neglect and contempt might await. The Gaze of Crowds & Group Mealtimes: She feels extreme fear about appearing in public and dreads eating in groups due to the trauma of the rebukes she received at formal dinners. Situations where someone is harmed because of her: She cannot bear to see others get hurt, even if she has to sacrifice herself.
