Build: Skinny. She has no real distinctive curves to her in the least bit.
Eye Color: Dark brown
Hair Color: Curly dark brown.
Style: Comfortable, yet stylish.
Over All: Lex can be described in two different ways. The first could be that she’s a twig, which does hold true as she is skinny, with very few, if any curves at all that make her seem more so noticeable. In fact, if she has on baggier closer one could easily claim that Lex was a guy, simply for the fact that it’s hard to notice the curve she has on her chest to show that she does in fact have boobs and that she is in fact a girl. Though another way one could easily describe Lex would be to say she’s stylish, if not comfortable. Lex is not the type of person to grab something from a shelf and claim everyone else is wearing it, put it on and find it uncomfortable, yet wear it anyways. She’ likes to feel comfortable in the clothes that she does wear, and so with the money she does get to spend on herself, Lex tries to buy things that are not only stylish but comfortable to wear.
To begin with, Lex has dark brown curly hair, which are just natural curls. As many have been able to walk up to her in the past and ask her where she got the perm done at, she could easily tell them it’s just natural. Granted, there are very few people anymore that would believe something of the sort. She knows it’s true though, and so do the people she could consider close friends. They don’t seem bothered by it in the least bit. There are very few times in which Lex will use a straightener to straighten out her hair, and it’s not for the fact that it takes a long time to do, it’s simply for the fact that she likes her hair that curly. She likes the fact that people think it looks nice on her, and she loves how it looks anyways. To match her dark brown hair though, Lex has a pair of dark brown eyes, almost a dark chocolate brown color. It’s not a pair of contacts, but rather eyes that she got from her mother. The hair, well she isn’t by any means sure where she got that one from.
The clothes that Lex chooses to wear on most days are what she could claim is comfortable, yet stylish. Just enough that she does try to keep up on the latest fashion around, but not enough that they would be considered designer clothes. As they are a little short on money now, Lex does the best with what she can find, and does make it look decent to wear around. Most of the time though, Lex can be found in a pair of blue jeans of any simple style. There are a few in which she likes to have designs on, but most of the time she sticks with something simple. Over the jeans, Lex has on a red shirt with a small white part in the middle of the opening of the shirt, to make it appear as though she’s wearing two different shirts when she’s not. Over the red short sleeved shirt, Lex has on her favorite yellow jacket that her father, Nicholas gave her the Christmas before he left the two siblings. Although she despises her father for his choices, the jacket was her way of remembering him and the good things that he’s done.

General Personality: Lex could be described in quite a few words, words that would pretty much sum her up without the need of descriptions. To say the least though, Lex could be at best described as outgoing. She’s always been the type who’s been able to make friends in the past. She does her best to stay friendly toward those around her, at least until she gets to know them better. In fact, as she grew up, Lex learned a life long lesson from her parents. It’s always better to get to know someone before you act judgmental. Never judge someone until you can beyond a reasonable doubt say you know the real them. It’s always been a good rule that she liked to abide by, as it did teach her a great deal about people in general and helped her become easily acquainted with a few people. Though, having to start out with a clean slate in Ohio, it may take a little bit of time before her outgoing personality really seeps through, but once it does, it’s hard to keep her from making new friends.
She can become a very protective person, and this really does show when she is around her younger brother Jack. Around him, Lex does tend to get protective, as though afraid something bad would happen to him if she wasn’t around to help him. Granted, this may or may not be something that he gets annoyed by, it’s just something that comes second nature to Lex, thus meaning it’s harder for her to back off and let him fight his own battles. It’s just the older sister tendency that she likes to have, a way to make sure Jack is safe and that he isn’t upset.
Lex could also be described as resourceful and creative. She’s always looking for new ways in which she can do certain things, ways that would help entertain her as the days go on. As she’s not the type to follow in an everyday schedule, it gets too boring for her, so Lex likes to switch things up. If the need calls for it, she will come up with a fun way to do certain jobs that many others would not enjoy by any means. It’s just the best way that she can do things. And if there is a time in which she has very few materials at hand to work with, Lex has the tendency to do what she can in the way of coming up with something out of nothing. It’s always been a gift of hers, and one that will help her later on in life.
Background
[/b][/center]Birthplace: Noxon, Montana
Financial Status: Poor
Parents: Kathrine Rosaline Fiedler (43), Nicholas Brian Fiedler (47)
Siblings: Jack V. Fiedler (15)
Other Relatives: None.
Pets: None.
Transportation: Bike and roller blades. She is saving up for a car, but until she gets the money for something of the sort, Lex relies on her bike and roller blades to get her to and from school and work.
History: Lex grew up to her two loving parents Kathrine Rosaline Fiedler, who at the time of her birth was twenty-seven, and her father Nicholas Brian Fielder, who was already thirty-one. Together living in the middle of Noxon, Montana they were what anyone could claim to be an interesting couple. That wasn’t to say no one around town thought they would be good together, but there were always though who had their doubts about Kathrine and Nicholas. As the two of them got married merely five years before managing to (successfully) have their own child, they’d been high school sweethearts long before the birth of their darling daughter, Alexandria.
It wasn’t but two months after the birth of Lex before they decided to try for one more child, hoping they could at least have two children near the same age. As it was, both seemed to agree having two children close together was better than having them spaced out over several years. At least then they could interact with one another and for the most part be within the same age group. It was lucky for them at the time that they’d managed to become pregnant with their second child. A few months into that pregnancy, they all found out that it would be a boy. Hereby, having discussed names previously, they decided upon Jack V. Fiedler.
And so the rest is history.
Being nearly the same age, there wasn’t too much that separated Lex and Jack when they were younger and out of school. As there were very few kids within the neighborhood that the middle class family chose to live in, the two siblings were found mainly playing together, creating games and the likes that many young children had a tendency to do around that time. Though, it wasn’t hard to tell between the two who would be protecting who as they got older. Lex had always had a keen sense when it came to protecting her younger brother. She was always the type to stay by her brothers side and help him, even if he didn’t want the help to begin with.
Though as the years progressed, it was quite easy to see who was who’s favorite between the siblings. Jack seemed to take a very quick liking to their father, Nicholas. Whereas on the other hand, Lex took a liking more toward their mother, Kathrine. Though this boundary didn’t really mean much to the kids. It just meant that they liked to spend a little bit extra time with one parent over the other, doing different things. For Lex though, she rather enjoyed cooking with her mom. It was the one thing that from a young age, Lex would come into the kitchen and watch her mom do, and would learn to pick up things from that. As she got older, Lex would pick up random things and learn to cook simply by watching her mom. And in later years, that would prove very handy indeed.
Once Lex and Jack were both in school (Lex in first grade, and Jack starting Kindergarten), it wasn’t difficult to see how their parents relationship with one another started changing. It usually started with them bickering, over the smallest of things, and the fight escalading from that point. And it always seemed to end with Nicholas storming out of the house in anger, and Kathrine running to her room for the remainder of the evening. The next day though, the two would act as though nothing was wrong. Which was always an act they put on in front of the kids, not wanting them to get upset. Shortly after these bouts of fights started, they decided to split up for a time, just to ‘take a break’ as they had explained to Lex and Jack.
Off and on for years following this, Kathrine and Nicholas have split up, trying as best they could to stay together just for the sake of the kids. And for a while, it seemed to work. They were going to marriage counseling at least once a week and started to get along more than usual. It was roughly around this time that Lex was starting seventh grade, and Jack was starting his first day of middle school.
By this year, Lex had taken up a rather interesting hobby with a few of her friends of roller blading. Being so new to it however, it took a great deal of time to master. As often as she could she would spend countless hours up at the skate park with her friends, where they would help teach her some of the basics, just enough that it would get her started. Though it wasn’t until March of that same year that Lex was starting to teach herself some new tricks. Though having to teach herself was a bit of a challenge, as the only one who was there to watch was her brother Jack. She had her brothers words to tell her what she needed to correct, but there were sometimes that it was still a challenge. All the same, it was something that Lex refused to give up.
It wasn’t until late one night on the way home with her brother, Jack from spending an entire afternoon roller blading at the skate park did the two of them find something that shocked both of them. Coming home, Lex quickly took notice to the fact that there was no car in the driveway of their house. At the time the family only owned one car, so it could have meant one of them was out somewhere. The other thing she noted was the trash bags and suitcases laying on the porch. Though, coming closer to the house the two siblings managed to find their mom crying on the porch swing they had. It wasn’t until then that the two of them learned what had happened. Nicholas (their father) had been having an affair with another woman. He’d left a note for Kathrine telling her’d filed for divorce. The house, the car, and the dog was to be kept with him. The kids and $900 was what Kathrine was getting from the deal. He’d left her with just enough money to rent an apartment somewhere.
And that’s exactly what they did.
Managing to scrape together enough money for a trip, Kathrine, Lex, and Jack moved to Kennington, Ohio where they lived in a two bedroom and one bathroom apartment in the Lower Loop. It was the rundown side of town, or ghetto side as many had called it in the past. But with the money they were getting from Nicholas and from Kathrine’s unemployment checks, it was all they could afford for the time being. With the little that they had in the possessions now, they would have to survive the apartment life for a bit. At least until Kathrine could find a job and they could get enough money to move somewhere decent.
Until then, Lex had decided to take up a part time job after school and on weekends at a nearby café to help pay for some things around the house. And because Jack was too young to get a job just yet, he would on occasions tag along with Lex and spend a few hours around the café as well.
They were now what many could call a broken family in just about every form of the word. Their mother being too depressed to take up a job yet, and Jack having gotten so close to their father to begin with was heartbroken about what had happened, it left Lex to help pick up the pieces. She would do all that was in her power to keep the family together.
Miscellaneous
[/b][/center]RP Sample: Taken from my now new favorite roleplay on another site. Supposedly this one was one of my better ones in that thread XD It’s longer then my usual, but I do have to say it’s recent and it was one of my better ones.
To say that Angel wasn’t glad that her friend Kelsi had stuck up for her only moments before would have been a complete lie. Not only was she surprised by the action, but Angel was relatively glad when Kelsi did stick up for her, if for know other reason than the fact that it was something she wouldn’t have expected from Kelsi. After the previous day, Angel would have assumed Kelsi would just remain silent, hidden in the background and hope things played out in her favor. But the fact that she’d stood up for Angel showed a lot, more then anything that Angel could ask for. She was grateful for her friend trying to stick up for her, thinking it was for the right reason. Or at least she’d been grateful until Katt’s next few words. Words that hit too close. Hearing it straight from Katt, it seemed to open it up to Angel just a bit more than before.
As Kelsi spoke again - this time hoping to correct the mistake that she made - Angel couldn’t help but shift uncomfortably on the bed before she finally moved backwards so she was now in the middle of the bed, her knees drawn up to her chest and her arms wrapped around them. Of course, even in this dress it made it slightly uncomfortable, but that had been the least of Angel’s problems, at least for now. Once Kelsi fell silent for a moment, Angel brought her gaze up to watch Kelsi, and finally she turned toward Katt, deciding that since Kelsi had stuck up for her only moments ago, Angel could back her friend up.
“Kelsi’s right, in a manner of speaking…” her eyes were still glistening with tears and her voice shook with every word spoken, but it wouldn’t be enough to stop Angel this time. Regardless of how much it hurt, she would continue. It seemed to be like a two sided blade. It cut both ways. “I don’t think she means it in any form of disrespect…But having screwed up a lot already, it’s as though we’re walking on glass, trying our best not to anger you or Chris any further. We’re trying our best not to screw something up any more, and by trying so hard we’re missing a few things along the way.”
Her voice was quiet and gentle. As though afraid that anything else would hurt them more than help. She was trying her best to help Kelsi, and correct the mistakes they’d already made.
“You’re not just our Lupa, Katt.” it’d been the first time all night that Angel had used her name, and even then Angel didn’t seem to notice too much. “You were our friend long before you became Lupa, and you’re still our friend. Regardless of anything that was said before, that’s something that will not change. You’ve always been there - as far as I can remember - You’ve been more of a friend to us then what we could have asked for, and for everything we’ve done recently, we probably don’t deserve that. We broke not only your trust, but everyone else’s as well, by going against the pride and possibly endangering everyone else, for our petty reasons.”
She was silent for only a minute, giving Kelsi enough time to speak up once again, this time seemingly to blame herself for everything that had happened in the past few weeks. Angel sighed, shaking her head and breaking her gaze away from Katt to reply to Kelsi. “This isn’t entirely your fault, Kelsi.” she said in the same softness she’d used when speaking to Katt. “We both screwed up, and there’s probably going to be hell to pay for it. But we both made the mistake of endangering those closest to us, without thinking too far ahead to the consequences. Everything that’s happened has mainly been at the hands of both of us…Don’t blame yourself for everything that happened…Please…”
Even before she’d finished speaking directly to Kelsi, Angel was sobbing, more than before. The tears that she’d tried ever so hard to keep at bay, just to avoid ruining the makeup that Kelsi had spent so long in helping her with were steadily sliding down her cheeks, but it had been the least of Angel’s problems. At least for the time. There was no need to worry about the makeup now, not when there were bigger problems at hand.
When Adelphus’s name entered the conversation, Angel remained silent, burying her face into her lap and continuing sobbing, while half listening to Kelsi’s words. There was nothing that she could add to what Kelsi had said already, as she agreed whole heartedly with everything her friend had said regarding Adelphus. It hadn’t been until Katt had said something that Angel realized the truth. She’d been so blinded previously that she hadn’t even considered the fact that Adelphus had up and left without so much as a good-bye to them. All he could leave them with was a note. And after he disappeared, it left Chris and Katt to pick up the pieces that he left behind, as well as discover new problems on the way. There was nothing more she could add to anything that was already said, and as she was sobbing, it would have been impossible for her to speak anyways.
Allowing Kelsi to finish speaking, Angel was silent as she listened to the silence for a moment or perhaps even longer before she drew in a deep breath, letting it out slowly and bringing her face slowly upward to look at Katt. Before speaking, Angel tried to calm her breathing a little, just so she wasn’t on the verge of hyperventilating anymore, which proved to be a challenge. Finally though, she’d managed and spoke up to Katt.
“I-I don’t expect you to be able to forgive me for everything that I s-said…What I said was u-u-unforgivable, and I understand that. I-I really am sorry for it though…I-I would do anything right now, just to take it all back…A-Anything to erase everything that not only myself, Kelsi has done. I would give my life if I knew t-that would make such a difference.”
It wasn’t until she’d managed to say this before Angel realized another presence had quickly entered the room. How long Chris had been standing there for, Angel wasn’t entirely sure.
“Ulf-” she paused, realizing formalities hadn’t exactly worked in Kelsi’s favor moments before, and not wanting to make things worse, Angel drew in a deep breath before continuing. “Chris, Katt…I am sorry. I didn’t mean f-for any of this to happen…I mean…” she trailed off, unable to find the correct words in which to use to apologize. Finally though, Angel kept quiet, watching Kelsi drop the ground before she proceeded with her apology. Wants finished with the apology though, Angel couldn’t help but to add, “We were both foolish…I-In so many ways…We’ve screwed up just enough that whatever this vampire wants could possibly endanger the p-pack more so then now. We weren’t thinking…E-Everything we did, l-leading up to here and n-now…It was all so foolish. We messed something up that you both helped rebuild…We’re sorry…”
Sobs started to wrack her entire body, enough that from head to toe she was starting to shake. Instead of keeping her arms wrapped around her legs though, Angel reached toward one of the goose feathered pillows that Kelsi owned and brought it into her lap, hugging it close to herself - needing something to hold onto at the moment - She buried her face into the pillow, trying to get herself calmed down enough that she could speak again, though all the while waiting to hear another voice.
As Kelsi spoke again - this time hoping to correct the mistake that she made - Angel couldn’t help but shift uncomfortably on the bed before she finally moved backwards so she was now in the middle of the bed, her knees drawn up to her chest and her arms wrapped around them.
