[/b] John C. Fremont High Year: Ninth Grade/High School Freshman
Name: Heigl, Annaliese Barbara Alias: Anna Date of Birth: August 14, 1993 Age: 15 Nationality: American Ethnicity: German-American Blood Type: AB+ Height: 5 feet, 7 inches (170.2 cm) Weight: 138 lbs. (62.59574706 kg) Hair Color: Brown Eye Color: Brown Handedness: Right Sexual Orientation:[/ul] Heterosexual
Physical Appearance:
Anna has brown hair and brown eyes that are usually hidden by her fringe and slightly obstructed from view with her glasses. She has pale, white skin that is blemish free (thank God). Her eyes are a soft almond shape and her eyelashes are long and naturally curled. Her nose is slightly large, but isn't crooked and has yet to break or even bleed. Her lips aren't too plump or too thin. Her face is heart-shaped and gives the appearance of a soft girl.
Her torso and arms are of a normal length and her breasts are slightly small for her age. She has a small, slightly risen scar on the left lower quadrant of her stomach from an appendectomy in '05. Her legs are slightly long, unmarred by scars from a childhood spent outside; she much preferred the library. She is thin, soft, and fragile-looking. She isn't built to lift more than several books or do much hard work.
Apparel & Accessories:
Anna, outside of school, wears something modest, relatively nice, and in muted colors. She wears, on average, a skirt and a seasonal sweater, but will wear exercise clothes for exercise, and may wear a polo or other nice shirt when it's too warm for a sweater. Her footwear consists of flats, flat heels (no stilettos HERE), and running shoes only for exercise. Inside school, she abides by the dress code to the letter, keeping her uniform crisp and clean all the time. She wears glasses. Normally, she has at least one book with her in her tote bag.
Personality:
Anna is quiet and friendly enough, but she's not exactly meant to be in the foreground. She doesn't like having any sort of spotlight on her because she doesn't like to speak a lot and she doesn't think that any major sort attention can really lead to anything good. She's practical and only goes along with something ridiculous just to see how long it can remain entertaining or useful. She can make friends easily enough, she just looks for people that are polar opposites of her; loud, humorous, all over the place, and with at least one other friend. She's bookish, put-together, and has a quiet little laugh that is more than polite, but less than obnoxious. Ideally, she wants to be in a popular group and be the one that will always listen and can give you great, practical advice. She's most at home in a library and will find some book to entertain herself whenever left in one. But, don't let this seemingly-lovely girl fool you. She's quite terrible.
Anna is wicked, judgmental, and slightly racist. She thinks that Jews and Muslims are oblivious and stupid, Asians all just need to commit Seppuku, English and French folks all need to remove that enormous stick from their bums, and German is the ideal race. As I said, she's slightly racist. If she finds out someone's nationality, she will group them with the stereotype that's been put in her mind by her father and nurtured by herself. The thing is, she keeps it to herself unless she's really pissed off, something that doesn't happen often. She's quiet, as said before, and has great control on her temper unless she's alone.
Miscellaneous Information:
Favorite Animal: Hair-less Cat, very little maintenance and an attitude similar to her own. Recurring Pipe Dream: To have a Library with only patrons that are clean, quiet, and friendly. Annoying Things: Sniffles, coughs, loud laughing, cracking fingers, terrible “music”, idiots who drive by with the bass turned up too loud, messes, and Hitler. Happy Things: Quiet Libraries, cleanliness, Classical and Modern Classical music, “Daddy”, and other bookish people.
Combat:
[/b] Strength: C Dexterity: C Constitution: C Wisdom: C
Style: None/Girl-fighting Weaknesses: This is no “real” style and mostly consists of hitting, scratching, slapping, and kicking until one can run away. There is no discipline required for this style. There's no real analytical thought or thinking ahead other than getting away with the least facial damage possible. Strengths:[/ul] Sine this isn't a disciplined style to be taught, it's unpredictable unless one has been watching more than their fair share of girl fights. The main goal is to get away, not reliant on the damage caused to the opponent. There are no “lows” in this fighting and below the belt hits, anything really, go.
History:
Annaliese Barbara Heigl was born at 12:37 p.m. on August 14, 1993 in Chula Vista City. Her parents were very well off people with one other child: their son Henry. Anna was mollycoddled and cherished, treated to books and gourmet rather than candy and outside games. She was taught her father's racist way of thinking, starting at a lecture with her brother one day after her father had to lay-off some of his employees because that part of his company was going overseas.
Her father told them that all the executives wanted were cheap workers that didn't complain or need dental plans. He said that the best type of person was a German-American, someone who would work hard and do the job well. All the other nationalities...who needed them? She caught on to and loved this way of thought while her brother had objected and said that all races were equal as they had been taught in school. He was sent to a German boarding school soon after.
Her brother wasn't really missed as he was eight years older and didn't know much of what to do with a little sister when they were together. He taught her how to read, though, a skill that she loved very much. Despite this, she didn't really remember much about him, or didn't choose to. He was just a face in a picture frame, a distant, mysterious part of the family that no one really enjoyed talking about. He didn't come home much and, on the rare occasion that he did, he was distant with her and her Dad, making it even harder for them to really have any spectacular kind of friendship or relationship. He was just kind of there.
Anna was never sickly, but she hardly ever went outside, even if her parents let her. With the well-stocked family library of sorts, why go out into a world where one could never know what was going to happen. Her mother saw this intolerance for the outside world growing and would often drag her out of the house and make her play for at least half an hour before letting her back in. As Anna got used to the outside world (and didn't cling to the door or scream so loud the neighbors worried anymore), the visits to the park grew more frequent and Anna and her mother would ride their bicycles, Anna on a trike, to the county library where the two could entertain themselves for hours and come home with a rather large stack of book. But that's not to say that Anna was ever her mother's daughter.
She was always and forever a Daddy's girl. She listened to her father rant about the crazy Muslims, the stupid politics, republicans, Al Gore, Rush Limbaugh, republicans, and Asians, just to name a few. She grew to believe that her father was powerful and Germans really were the best. To this day, that image has yet to tarnish. Most girls realize that their parents aren't invincible or superhuman by the time they're 15, some sooner than others sadly enough, but Anna never did. Her mother was strong and her father a prevailing knight. Whether that is a blessing or curse hasn't been decided.
Anna had a good childhood filled with books and whatever she wanted, which was mostly books, actually. She was set for a great life. Sure, there were problems at school like her not getting along with the other kids or reading long after the final bell had rung, but she was fine. She learned to fight by watching the girls in her schools, but only participated when there was no other option. After her first high school's curriculum wasn't challenging enough, she was transferred to John C. Fremont High, the home on gifted and lovely minds. Or, at least, that's was the brochure said.

I feel there needs to be a bit more in the history. You've created a good character here, I'd just like you to go a bit more in-depth in the history and you'll be fine.
