Appearance:
Raelynn is a rather tall girl, being 5 feet, 8.4 inches tall. Her build is rather lanky, not holding much fat or muscle on her as she has an ectomorph body type with a super fast metabolism to boot. Due to her thinness she’s quite aware that her chest is nothing compared to most girls her age although she can boast about her 22 inch waist, which she doesn’t seeing as she feels like she’s bony enough. Her collarbones, chest bones and shoulder blades are rather prominent which add to a few of her insecurities but she is often wearing baggy clothing or large jackets to hide those features. Raelynn is more legs than torsos and has uncharacteristically wide hips for those with a similar bone structure, and really her only saving grace in looking like she has indeed hit puberty is the fact that her rump is decently sized, proportionate to her body at least and not flat but round. Raelynn also has flat feet, something she feels makes her feet look strange but actually helps with an array of movement and keeping her injuries low.
Raelynn’s skin is quite pale, and fragile. She bruises easily and can’t tan, always turning red if she’s out in the sun without sunscreen. Luckily though it’s flawless in the sense that she rarely gets acne, only every now and then and nothing too extreme. Her hair is between thick and thin, rather straight but also quite malleable when wet or with heat. It was originally a soft brown but due to the years of dying it, and cheap dye, the original softness and color has faded and turned to be more coarse and dark. Yet it could be mended with proper shampoo and conditioner that is designed to treat such a thing. During this time her hair is a mixture of silvery-white, her dark roots showing about a quarter of an inch but nothing too drastic. With a diamond shaped face, Raelynn’s face is fairly angular, her cheekbones and jaw creating the sharp contours of her face. She has been blessed with full, soft pink lips, her bottom thicker but the top lip is still defined, a strong cupid’s bow giving impressive shape and definition. Her nose is straight, curved perfectly and not too long or short; really like any good nose it can’t be described. However what is really the most impressive thing on her face is her eyes: they’re upturned and doe-eyed, her iris a muted gray-blue, so light they could almost seem like ice at times. This usually has her eyes being very sensitive though, especially in bright sunlight. Her eyes lashes are rather long but not dark, being a lighter brown color that matched her initial hair color.
If you were to see Raelynn walking down the street, you would immediately assumed her to be a) a hobo or b) one of those alternative punk kids who could care less about what society thought of them. Raelynn isn’t the biggest on fashion, getting most of her clothes from thrift shops and preferring muted colors such as ocher, mustard yellows, army greens, olive green, blacks, grays, dull magenta and blues. Her attire is always plain and simple. Rarely will you ever see her in a dress or skirt, preferring the comfort of denim, or pants in general. Usually she covers up, due to the sensitivity of her skin, and when wearing shorts will often wearing black tights underneath. Her style is rather grunge, flannels are a must for her as well as ripped or frayed anything. For shoes she’s either wearing a pair of sneakers or her steel-toed work boots. Large jackets are some of her favorite things, especially since she gets cold quite easily and it helps to cover her up. Loose t-shirts tend to be her favorite although she does enjoy wearing tight, plain crop tops. She dislikes wear sweaters or long sleeved shirts so if it’s cold outside she’ll still wear a t-shirt with a jacket on top. Also she has a sock fetish, her socks will probably be the craziest things in the world. As for hair and make up, she either has her hair tied back in a ponytail or simply down, sometimes doing twin french braids but she’s never been good at styling her hair as she has with dying it. Raelynn also would never add much make up to her face, preferring the natural beauty of things through only foundation, tinted chapstick and every now and then mascara or eyeliner, but never anything excessive.
Lastly, Rae has a few piercings and scars, along with other miscellaneous things. Her naval, ears, septum, tongue and left eyebrow are pierced, her ears together holding roughly 9 piercings, giving her a total of 13 piercings.Raelynn doesn’t wear any other jewelry except for her piercings, hating the feel of rings or long necklaces, and she never had a bracelet to wear. Seeing as she scars rather easily, there are plenty of small scars on her knees and on the side of her forearm. However on both of her wrists there are pale lilac rings from an unfortunate event when her wrists were zip-tied together. Finally, Raelynn never puts on nail polish. She’s just too lazy to take the time and do it and touch it up, so if there is nail polish on her nails then it’s most likely chipped.
Persona:
Raelynn has a rather ebullient and rambunctious disposition around her friends but with strangers she becomes rather timid and awkward. Her quirky nature is part of who she is yet that is the side of her she’s least likely to show someone intentionally, but it usually slips out anyways. Around strangers she tends to have a nervous tick where she either is completely silent or she can’t stop talking. And trust me, she loves to talk. Not so much to listen to the sound of her voice, no she knows she’s spouting nonsense, but it’s a way for her to discover things, think aloud in a sense. Her imagination is quite impressive with her mind that is going a thousand miles a minute, never stopping, even when she’s asleep. Her dreams could be made into fantastic fantasy novels, one would think that only with the use of drugs could you imagine such psychedelic wonders.
Raelynn has never been the brightest in school, she’s a kinetic learner and so anything that wasn’t hands on and required a large amount of focus through listening or writing has been a struggle. When working with her hands she’s very bright, easily taking something apart and then putting it back together, understanding the mechanics of it quickly. Yet reading caused her mind to drift and doing equations couldn’t hold her attention either. She’s a bad student to say the least: skipping or sleeping during class, detentions for being unable to hold her tongue or disrupting the class, and never doing homework is practically her student trademark.
Yet this doesn’t mean that Raelynn is a bad kid. She has strong morals and no one could ever change her. It’s more than her just being stubborn, it’s just that she is quite inward in the sense that she really knows who she is and what she wants, despite the natural existentialism moments any teenager has. When offered a cigarette by her friends she freaked out, unable to even touch it. When it was suggested that she play a rather mean prank on a teacher, she declined. Her moral compass is rather strong with her beliefs, and quite frankly she’s rather a goodie-two-shoes despite the facade she puts out. Raelynn is quick to feel guilt, her conscience rather strong. Because of this, if she’s doing something bad its most likely because she doesn’t view it as such or because she feels like it isn't hurting one but herself.
Being friends with Raelynn means that she is your friend for life, her loyalty is her harmartia. Despite it seemingly to be a good thing, those who are poisonous to her are still those she will care and protect, even if it means tainting herself. She's unable to let people go, even if she should have done so months ago. It's also an issue when two friends are fighting and expect her to pick sides, because quite frankly that's like asking her to cut off her hand. But on the positive side, Raelynn is definitely that friend who would give you the shirt off her back without any questions asked. She's the friend who would say 'I'll kick his ass for you' if a friend was crying over a break up. She's the girl you'd rather have on your side than against you, being physically aggressive when her friends are dealing with the negativity of others.
Quite the adrenaline junkie, Raelynn would have no issues punching you in front of the principal if you were insulting her friend, and she also has no issue in fighting dirty. It's not that she has to win, it's just that her intuitive side goes to pure instinct when it comes to her flight or fight response. Rarely does she think in a situation, being impulsive and quick, her actions like a blur without a direction. That's how she tends to go through life, never contemplating much in a time that can cause physical danger to her or her loved ones. It's only at the end of the day when she's alone and in bed that she self-reflects and learns how she should have done this or that better.
Raelynn prefers to deal with problems right away, ready to confront than to beat around the bush. People take this as her being abrasive or intrusive, and quite frankly she is. Yet this doesn't mean that when asked that she won't back off, usually she doesn't know that she's being so pushy until someone points it out, her personality rather strong when compared to others.
A unique trait Raelynn has is when she is upset: she would rather die than to cry in front of someone. Her sense of weakness and strength is twisted, making her rather spiteful and bitter. She can't stand the idea of someone giving her pity or seeing her as helpless, although often she does need help seeing as she ends up in the strangest situations. Nonetheless she wants to portray herself as always being in control, and would give harsh words to someone's sympathy. Also, when arguing, she never insults someone if they're important to her. While having quite the vulgar mouth, to argue with a friend would cause her to refrain from using derogatory language towards them. When unable to deal with things or unable to fix them she tends to hide inside herself, and scarf down Chinese food while watching trash reality tv, the only remedy for her depressed mood.
While not brusque, the more Raelynn likes you the more her sarcasm comes out. And if she has a crush on you then be prepared to possibly be insulted again and again, as she tends to show her love for you in the most unlikely and immature way. Quite frankly if she loves you then to show it she would hit you with a shovel. Okay, not literally but her words can be quite scathing even though deep inside she really wants to compliment whatever she is complaining about. This has caused her to have a pretty unsuccessful romance thus far, not to mention that she's ten times more awkward around the guys she likes than girls. It's something she needs to work on, especially since she can give mix signals by being as cold as an ice cube one minute to as cuddly as a kitten the next.
Backstory:
Raelynn was born into a cult her mother was apart of. The cult was full with women and their daughters, often teaching them to beware the evilness of men. When the cult was disbanded, Raelynn was placed into fostercare. Since she was 12 she had been severely bullied until she was 14. Her personality may seem normal but before the bullying she was a quiet yet sweet girl with a few close friends. When it became known that she was part of the strange cult that loitered around trying to sell strange water, the kids turned against her her last year of elementary school. In middle school it wasn't better, it got worse because instead of verbal insults they began to get physical. Raelynn would play the role of the bigger person, ignoring the bullies or replying back to them rudely, which caused their anger to be worse. There was actually an incident the last day of her middle school year were Raelynn believed she was going to die. Yet, everything turned out to be alright and that summer while hiding in her room, she learned that she should fight back. And when she did, everyone backed off and instead a new group of misfits accepted her. These became her friends who she would easily lay her life down for, no questions asked, she owes them everything.(eh her backstory is really so long that I'll add it in later or something, aha.)
Extra:
- She's more of a cat person than dog person but really she loves all animals. She's the girl who would ask someone to pet their dog and kneel down and let the dog jump all over them, laughing the entire time.
- She loves spicy food, being from New Mexico, hot sauce and chiles are pretty big. She literally would marry 'Christmas' styled burritos.
- She's quite the cook and cooking helps her relieve stress. But anything she makes is always decent at it's worse.
- Her favorite fruit are apricots and her favorite vegetable are sweet potatoes.
- Her favorite type of candy is the spicy-tamarind candy from Mexico, spicy candy is the way to her heart.
- If a song that she knows come on she will not be able to sit still, usually she has lots of favorite songs at once and if they come on then be prepared for her to dance and sing.
- She's a horrible runner, she'll trip over everything or run too slow, even with adrenaline.
- She's a big scaredy cat, horror movies, no matter how bad the effects, will make her scared. She'll probably be unable to sleep with her hyperactive imagination.
- It's hard for to sit still, she's usually fiddling with something or looking around all over the place. Possibly this means she has ADD or something.
- Despite her being a ball of playful energy, when extremely happy she just smiles and is quiet. She has never shouted or screamed with joy before.
- She's not a morning person at all.
- She gets flustered very, very easy if sexual innuendos are made or sex is brought up and will usually babble about something else or will right out say 'ew dude that's nasty'.
- She basically calls everyone 'dude'.
- Her favorite season is winter just because she feels like it's unappreciated.
- She hates the color yellow and would never wear such a color.
- She's lactose intolerant and allergic to eggs unless they're prepared in a specific way and she doesn't eat beef due to all the slaughter houses for cows in New Mexico. As a child she was raised on a high-water content vegan diet which is why she is probably so thin still and has anemia.
- She talks with her hands so much, ohmygod every time she talks her arms are literally waving around.
- She's actually pretty good with cars, considering she's a girl and she doesn't have one of her own but still, that's something she understands pretty well.
- She's not afraid of snakes, spiders, clowns or heights. But she is afraid of never being loved or being good enough.
- She hates peanut butter. Something about the texture of it makes her shudder.
