Name: Lili Zwingli
Age: 21
Country of Origin: Born in Gamprin, Liechtenstein; Resided in Switzerland
Gender: Female
Position Sought: Intern for Criminal Profiling; Crimes against children
Experience or Education in said field: Currently studying criminology as her major and psychology as her minor.
Physical appearance: Lili is a slender girl, standing at about 5'0". Her wispy blond hair reaches her chin and slightly covers her dim blue-green eyes. She has a flat chested, which causes others to mistake her for a boy. However, she wears a ribbon in her hair and a tad bit of makeup to affirm her femininity. A natural blush often creeps upon her light colored face and deepens when embarrassed or scared.
Distinguishing features: Lili's eyes often vary in the blue to green range depending on what she wears.
Character history/personality:Lili can often be considered an extremely elaborate individual, possessing maturity and modesty. She is often taken as someone much older than she actually is and often plays along with it. Lili is a bit of timid person, but her politeness and kindness makes up for it. She often speaks her mind, without thinking twice about what she says. Often times, however, nothing she says comes off as a mean or harsh comment.
However, Lili still is a gullible person, which can be considered one of her major flaws. Her other flaw is her issue with trust. Lili never really tells others her secrets and even when she does, many important details are left out. Her trust issues stem from her time in high school, where everything seemed to go absolutely wrong.
Lili was born into the Zwingli family while they were on vacation in Liechtenstein. Her birth came as a surprise to her family, but they were overjoyed as well. She spent her younger years in Switzerland and enjoyed every minute of it. She'd go out and play in the fields or pick flowers in nearby forests, never thinking twice about the danger that lurked behind every corner.
Lili, over time, became quite friendly with a neighborhood boy named Leon. She began to spend her days with the boy and the two became inseparable. However, the boy had been killed by a older man. All the adults in the town had kept their mouth shut about the murder and refused to tell Lili any sort of information. In their minds, it was a way for Lili to keep her innocence.
The death of her dearly loved Leon struck a nerve. Lili became scared of the world and began to cling to her older brother, Vash for safety. She'd imitate everything he did and cut her hair to look like his, believing it'd make her look like a stronger person.
Her sophomore year of high school was literally the best and worst year of her life. Lili was constantly harassed by other girls for looking like a boy and having no backbone whatsoever. Lili resided in a newly found friend and told the girl her deepest, darkest secrets. Before Lili knew it, the entire school knew of all the secrets as well. Lili built a brick wall around herself and kept everyone except her brother.
During one of her daily lunch time trips to the library, Lili came across several psychology books just sitting upon the table. To this day, she doesn't know why they were there, or what miraculous force made her flip through the pages. However, the girl still looked at the books and was reminded of the tragedy the occurred during her childhood. Since no one ever spoke of those murders, Lili took it upon herself to look into it. After many days and endless hours of research, she came across a couple of articles in old newspapers. Apparently, the man was schizophrenic and claimed that God told him to kill boys for they were the seeds of evil. The man had also been charged of three other murders of boys under the age of ten.
After all the research, Lili had become interested in criminology and psychology. She had spent her lunch periods looking into past crimes and the trials that ensued. The girl had also began to focus more on her studies, hoping it'd get her into a good college.
Lili had been accepted into Bern University of Applied Sciences. Of course, Lili was ecstatic upon hearing the news, but she knew things would only get harder and harder. After all, she was technically on her own now, which frightened the poor girl. Like her high school years, she continued her hard work and managed to get an internship for overseas. Receiving the internship position surprised and made the girl panic-stricken. She was barely making it on her own in Switzerland and now she was going to go overseas. After much contemplation, Lili had decided to nobly take the internship and traveled overseas.
Likes/Dislikes:
Likes:
~Candy- Still retaining childish tastes, Lili adores candy; specifically chocolate.
~Relaxing Nature Walks- Lili loves to take nature walks to observe the scenery around her. She finds that taking in the fresh air and getting some exercise does the soul good.
~Literature- Books educate Lili, which extremely delights the girl. The thought of curling up on the sofa and reading a well written book brightens her day.
~Her brother, Vash- Lili adores her brother and looks to him a role model.
~Peace and Quiet- Lili enjoys her time when it's peacefully quiet. She doesn't mind spending his quiet time with someone as long as they keep their mouth shut.
~Humor- If a brings a smile to the girl's face, then she'll consider that person a friend. Lili always loves a bit of humor in his life.
~Music- Lili loves to just sit and listen to music. She doesn't have a particular favorite, however, one can find her listening to classic rock usually. However, she'll never admit to her jam sessions when she's by herself since she considers it unladylike.
~Friends- Friendship can bring joy to anyone's life and it
certainly brings joy to Lili's. She loves her friends and enjoys their company.
Dislikes:
~Being called a boy- Ever since she was younger, Lili has always been mistaken for a boy due to her appearance. Being referred to as a boy often makes Lili self-conscience.
~Being alone- Lili has a difficult time coping with being by
himself. The thought of sitting by himself just makes her shutter.
~Violence- Whether it be verbal or physical, Lili does not care for violence. She knows she has no way to prevent it, but Lili can't bear the sight of seeing someone hurt.
~Spiders- Lili hates spiders with a burning passion. Honestly, who wouldn't be scared of the eight legs of doom?
~Nighttime- Darkness everywhere does not settle well with Lili. She cannot stand when the sun isn't in the sky. Also, the phrase, "Nothing good happens after 12AM", comes to mind frequently.
~Liars- Lili absolutely hates liars. Concealing the truth only
makes her that much more curious of what it is that is being hidden and makes her distrust that person.
Quirks/Fears:
Quirks:
~Stuttering when nervous
Fears:
~Death
~Never to be loved
~Fear itself
RP Sample:
Lili gracefully walked down the hallways of her college. She held her head high, ready to receive the important news her professor was about to give her.
Now, she had an idea that it involved internship, but it could also be something along the lines of her not participating in class enough. Her pace began to slow down as she thought of all the terrible things her professor could say to her. She nearly reached a halt as she thought of her competition for the internship.
"They're all... better than me", she mumbled to herself. Lili thought of the past few days in class. Did she participate enough? Were her marks acceptable? The countless answers she thought of made her stomach churn. Her face became a sickly pale color, for she felt like she was about to vomit.
Never before had the girl felt so nervous; not even opening her acceptance letters for college. There had always been another chance for whatever the situation called for. However, her professor didn't make it seem like there would be another opportunity to receive the internship.
Lili forcefully dragged her body to the wooden door that separated her from what her professor wanted to speak with her about. Her hand slowly moved towards the brass knob. Lili's fingers gingerly brushed against the knob. She cocked her head, noticing the coldness that emanated off the brass. She shuddered, "I-I c-can't do t-this". Like the force that drove her to pick up those high school psychology books not so long ago, also forced her to open the door to her future.
Any additional information? Can we have a tea party, please?
