STYLE Rebecca takes the current trends and fashions, twists them into a headlock, and creates her own style. It’s a mash up of things she’s made and found in old shops, and everything from the fashion magazines. Somehow, she manages to pull it off. Jeans are probably her best friend. She’s almost always wearing them, in all forms. She also has a thing for colourful jewellery, and prefers bracelets to necklaces, but she hasn’t got her ears pierced, so they’re out of the question. Shoes? Either a pair of converse or some ankle boots.

OVERALL
Rebecca is really quite easy going. In the middle on mayhem she can be sitting in the centre completely relaxed with a little grin on her face. She’s almost always smiling, laughing at something, or making fun of someone. Winding people up is one of her favourite hobbies, which includes occasionally popping to the other side of the war for exactly that purpose. She thinks the whole war business is stupid, so messing it all up isn’t a problem, and a good source of entertainment.

Underneath, Beccas surprisingly really kind, she understands where to draw the line with her creative trickery and deception. The dark side is most defiantly the fun side, and apart from the entertainment of swapping sides, she does get that little nagging voice in her head that tells her to do the right thing. This does, however get her in a bit of trouble. People who find out often blow a fuse, and then get even more furious when she finds the whole ordeal extremely hilarious. Which leads to the fact that Rebecca is a little bit on the crazy side. People will often find her doing something a bit weird. For example, hanging upside-down in a tree. On the odd occasion.

Sometimes, Rebecca’s loving, carefree side can get a bit too much. She turns forgetful, lazy and procrastinates a lot of the time. She’d just sit around cooped up in her dream world of music and fire, and can sleep for hours during the day on the sun bed on the balcony of her and her sister’s apartment.

OVERALL
The Turners, like any rich family, mostly wanted a male heir to carry on the family name and traditions. Their first attempt for a child was unsuccessful, where the boy was born lifeless and still. The parents wept for days, but Anne and Phillip were still determined. They had a beautiful baby girl a year later, named Emily, who very quickly showed promise of a very intelligent mind. She was walking in no time, and started pronouncing her very first words. The turners had an unfathomable amount of love for the small girl, so much love that they had to try again, still praying for that son. Unfortunately, they yet again had another two miscarriages. Luckily, this time it was very early on in the pregnancy. The parents gave up. They were so obsessed and distraught over what happened, they knew that they weren’t giving enough love to their living healthy daughter right in front of them.

Several years passed and Emily was already 4, and was starting to learn to write simple words like her name and “the” or “cat”. Their promise from early on had not been a fluke. She was turning out to have an amazing mind stocked up in her tiny head. It was then that Anne, through accident, was pregnant again. The couple were sick with worry, they weren’t sure they could face yet another miscarriage. They went to the hospital for their first scan, and were astonished with the result, Anne was pregnant with twins! The months went by in a flash, and on June the 20th, Anne went into labour. The first of the twins was a girl, she was small and very healthy, with small wisps of blonde hair, whom the names Rebecca. The second was a small boy they named Joseph. On the outside he was healthy, but on the inside he had several holes in his heart, a fault in his brain and his legs were born paralyzed. Joseph was submitted to mountains of surgeries, he had to take several pills every day just to survive. Growing up, Rebecca and Joseph were thick as thieves. Becca, growing up with it, didn’t see a single thing wrong with him. She used to help feed him, and she carried him round the garden, they were completely inseparable. She used to try to help teach him to talk when he was struggling and she had already learnt. And thanks to her determination, he had regained a little bit of movement in his legs, and could now shuffle around on the floor all by himself. Things were looking up for the Turner family.

That was until just after their fourth birthday; Rebecca and Joseph were playing, laughing on the swing in the back garden. Joseph heart failed, he fell from the swing and hit the floor, hard. Rebecca screamed, her parents came rushing out and whisked him away to A&E. It was determined that later that evening, Joseph had died in surgery while they were trying to fix him. Rebecca didn’t stop crying for days later.

Growing up after her Brother was gone was difficult. But her older sister and her parents were right by her side all of the way. Emily and Rebecca were close before, but they grew into even stronger friends. Rebecca really looked up to Emily, and Emily always looked after Becca, any bullies that so much as came near Becca ended up running away screaming from Emily.

Anne and Phillip however, had finally completely and utterly abandoned ideas about raising a son as an heir. They believed that they were somehow being punished for not loving the children they had already, and caring to much about a boy they will never have. They then focused their thoughts on Emily, for she was to be their promising heir. Emily often cracked under the pressure from her parents to be perfect daughter, and Rebecca was always there trying to support her.

While their thoughts were focused on Emily, Rebecca was almost free to do what she pleased. Anne wanted to be less strict towards her because of her brother, and Phillip encouraged her comedic outbursts, saying every family needs a lovely little joker. So Becca dwindled into the character she is now. Her sister moved out at the age of 19, and was soon followed by Rebecca, who came to share her flat when she turned 16. They still keep in close contact with their parents, but honestly, Anne and Phillip are pleased to finally have the house to themselves.

RP SAMPLE I couldn't find any more recent than 2009... so I can't guarantee it will be any good hehe =D

Jimmy had to be in the mood for ice-cream, otherwise, she wouldn’t eat it. She wasn’t really the ice-cream sort of person. But un-like most people, she ate ice-cream when she was in a cheerful mood. Why was she in a cheerful mood? Her sister had come round to see her yesterday; they had a nice meal as a welcome, finished by lots of games and a long conversation that stretched way into the early hours of the morning. She loved her sister, she was by far her best friend, although her sister had lots and lots of very close, best friends... Un-like her. She had felt a little lonely only having her Mom to talk to, and her Mom can be a bit -stuck-in-the-old-times- at times. Her sister had talked about how she’s getting on at collage, her studies, boys she had met, friends she had made and all that jazz. But she had to leave; she was going on a holiday with her friends, camping in some forest somewhere far away. Timila wasn’t really paying much attention to that bit; she had no idea where exactly they were going. So far, she hadn’t got anything planned for the summer break. But she had heard rumours of a big road trip that nearly everyone in the school was going to... seemed like a perfect opportunity to get better friends with some people...she just needed to get herself invited.

She sat on a chair outside the nearest store for the best ice-cream she had ever come across. Ben and Jerry’s. She was eating a double scoop; cookie dough and phish food, with squirty-cream, hot fudge and chocolate sprinkles. Basically a heart attack in a cup. She probably had it all round her face, but she really did not care the slightest. The sun was high in the sky, and the sky was a shimmery blue without a single cloud. Well, that was a lie; there was one little cloud which looked like llama with a turtle dancing on its head. But if you turned your head upside down, it looked like two elephants doing the conga. Timila then stopped herself as she realised people pacing by would a bit freaked by a girl with ice-cream round her face straining to see something upside down in the sky. As she turned her head round she caught an old lady staring at her with her little handbag, with the biggest look of disgust on her face known to mankind. Tim just smiled and waved as she watched the lady run away like a cat with a long tail out of a room of rocking chairs. She sighed, and wiped her mouth. Last time she had been here her father had tried to make to effort to make “friends” with her and her sister. It turned out that he just wanted to find out whether our Mom was cheating on him, so we thought that he was actually making an effort, but it was all about him, again. Who was he? Did he forget who Mom was? She would never cheat on him; she could never bring herself to do it. She was probably the most loyal person in the world. Sophia hasn’t spoken a word to him since, and it’s been a few years. But it had been the same sort of day; she had ordered the same ice-cream too. But she tried to knock it out of her mind. She didn’t need him. No one did. He was worthless to the world, so why did he deserve space in her mind?

She looked down at her over-flowing sketch book and wondered what she could draw. Although it was a nice day, she didn’t really feel like drawing anything around her at the moment, so she settled on one of the sketches she was working on already. Flicking through the pages, she found a piece she had almost finished, just had a bit of shading to do. It was a drawing of two ants, and they were fighting amongst the grass. But, she had turned the grass to fire, and made the ants so as, when you glanced, looked like ants, but if you looked closely, they were people. And the fire around them was hell. But they were fighting over a round shining object. It was mostly blue, with bit of green, and looked familiarly like the planet earth. It had several meanings behind it, she just wondered if people would guess the right one. She was planning to paint this at some point, but of course she needed a detailed plan before she lunged into the big project. She slurped her melting ice-cream and shaded with her many tones of colouring pencils. Today was going to be a good day.
