BLOODTYPE ) A+
HAND ) Right

APPEARANCE ) Oh ho, you'll be confused with this one. The girl has child-like features, doe like eyes and fair skin that could rival a baby's, but her overall apperance just screams maturity, graceful with a whole drop of aloofness. Lea has natural wavy curls at the end of her dark brown hair. She wears mid-length cut, her her curls dropping just below her chests. Her doe-like coffee brown eyes may seem innocent but they actually vary between being stormy and tired. She has fair complextion, leaning more to the pale side rather than being a ' white beauty'. Lea's pink pale lips are dried, and at times they bleed. Nevertheless, she's just another korean female, one that you will actually think twice before approaching.

STYLE ) Somehow, Lea always feels cold. Her dry skin can't seem to regenerate even the slightest of body heat. Her wardrobe consists of sweaters, cardigans, baggy shirts and jeans. She also wear knee-length skirts, only if she has a couple leggings lying around. She is usually seen wearing basic colours - red, yellow, black etc with the addition of dark and calm colours like purple, silver and brown.

PERSONALITY )
➳ Observant, strategic, wise, sincere, manipulative, insecure, prideful, pessimistic, wary


First impression is very important, don’t you think? Well, it is to Lea. On first look, Lea looks just like another girl-next-door. ‘Plain’ and ‘normal’ but has her own individuality and uniqueness here and there. However, when you get closer, you’ll notice that her brown doe-like eyes tells a whole different story. Look into her eyes, have a thin smile gracing on her pale lips for you and you’ll find yourself realizing that you are facing someone who could play either sides of a chess board. Gracing with maturity, the smile on her lips are always sincere, but her eyes…they may be coffee brown but they could be mistaken as stormy dark grey. Her eyes hold everything there is to her, and you’ll never find those eyes empty. Lea is always thinking of something, being logical and strategic is in her blood. She may not be a computer genius but she is excellent in reading people. You may need a double look, or even a lifetime to get to know who someone really is but the talent of studying people comes to Lea naturally. She knows when someone is comfortable, awkward, lying, insincere and vice versa. Because of this, Lea is known to be a very good people pleaser. She knows exactly what to do next. The girl knows whether to continue and head forward, or to step back and let others rest. She is also a very good speaker, always knowing what to say next in order to make to ends meet. Lea is also the person you would want to go to when you have a story to tell. She listens very well, and will give you advices and solutions in the end. As she reads others well, she’ll know whether you actually want to hear an advice- God knows how many people just want to cry rather than actually finding a way out. If you’re one of those who just want to have a shoulder to cry on, she’ll happily lend you one. Later on, she’ll hand you tissues, or knives, whichever fits the situation better.

Level-headed and calm in most situations, Lea has a keen eye for details and is observant not only on other people’s behavior, but also in the situation around her too. She is a person who stands in between in almost anything, things like history and myths, technology and nature, modern and tradition. Being a skilled speaker and mediator, Lea tries her best to be fair. She has rational reasons backing her up every time she is in the middle. She is at her best when she talks, strategic in laying out her words, and people can’t help but to feel mesmerized and charmed by her. She often doesn’t take sides. Most of the times she’ll make both sides unite in peace. However, there is this side of hers that makes the middle as her own. People think that they are coming at the middle, but the truth is, Lea has made two sides come together in her favor. With the ability to twist and layer words, Lea is also manipulative, cunning and resourceful, finding her way out of trouble with words. But don’t worry, she only occasionally flips to the manipulative side, most of the time she’s fair…or is she?

Are you scared? Because you don’t have to be. When giving out advices and calming others, Lea is truly sincere. She is a natural peace keeper, but this doesn’t mean that she doesn’t have her own views. Oh, quite on the contrary. This girl is very opinionated in a way that when things get too out of hand, she will take control by using her speech skill to sway others. Beneath all of her calm and fairness, she does see the world in a black and white manner, only tolerating just a few shades of grey. She conflicts herself internally, and sometimes when deciding, her mind doesn’t go with her heart. Lea can be suspicious and wary of others, and though she is good at making others trust her, she isn’t good at being on the flip side. She lets others trust her because she knows that she could be trusted. But how could she trust others? Yes, she reads people well but truly knowing someone takes years, her trust is too valuable to be thrown out just like that. She guards her own feelings at bay, not being able to trust others, having proven to be too prideful to be vulnerable. Insecurity owns her despite her confidence in speech, and when she snaps, her (still) layered words will be full of feisty remarks, sarcasm and even vanity. If she does however learn to trust someone, then it will be very hard for her to let go.

In conclusion, the sorting hat would be very confused in sorting this girl. Many would say that she is a wise Ravenclaw, but holds a few key traits of a true Slytherin as well. .

SEOUL ) The doctors in Gwangju gave her the green light, and her parents decided that Anemia or not, their daughter deserves a chance at studying in Seoul's University of South Korea and bla bla bla inserts many more reasons here. the truth is, her parents finally feel guilty. Go figure.

FAMILY )
Father / Jin Seung / 48 / Calculative, strict, serious
Jin Seung is a man who is self-preserved, willing to push his family to the side for success. Work always comes first for this man. Lea, though estranged from her father, actually shares a few keen personality traits with him. Her swaying skills comes from him. Jin Seung does love his children, but is never good at showing it. He is realistic and expresses his love with money as opposed to affections.
Mother / Yoon Isuel / 45 / Graceful, loyal (to her husband), intelligent
Isuel has no problems showing, or saying that she cares, because she truly does. Her words are always so calming and soothing that at times, Lea does feel calmed. Same as Lea, Isuel makes her way out by layering her words. This doesn't go undetected by Lea though, but she does feelt the sincerity and love in her mother's words, and so she let her be.
Older twin brother / Jin Daejun / 18 / Estranged, fair, protective
Daejun is probably the mos estranged one in her family to Lea. He himself is an aloof person, that clearly doesn't make it easy for Lea to connect with him. However, they do share a 'twin bond' in some ways. Daejun is also extremely protective of Lea and he clearly doesn't support his parents decision on sending Lea to Gwangju.
Maternal grandfather / Yoon JoonOk / 67 / Humble, bashful, supportive
Lea and JoonOk share a close bond. It is no secret that the man loves his grandaughter very much. He is always concern about her and even spoils her rotten, much to his wife's dismay.
Maternal grandmother / Jun Sooah / 65 / Wise, resourceful, loving
While JoonOk spoils their grandaughter, Sooah is the one that teahes her to be strong. She nags Lea, tells her to do this and that despite knowing Lea's condition. This is simply because she wants Lea to be independent. Sooah wants the best for her grandaughter, and she wants the whole world, mainly her daughter and son-in-law to know that Lea can be strong and survive without them. Sooah is the one who is there for Lea when she cries, she is the one who gives out wise advice when is needed.

OTHERS )
➳ Since she's coming to Seoul alone, she won't have any significant friends coming from Gwangju
LOVE INTEREST ) Limp

PREFERRED ) Straight

PREFERRED LOVER ) Limp or any
FAMOUS LAST WORDS ) Lea, to me, is a complex character. She is mostly standing on the good side, but when the situation calls for it, she won't be afraid to do what is needed to survive. It's up to you to do what you want with her. Hee. You can introduce her as a momma bear too, lol, Oh yes, I'm curious on the 'dominant hand' part, will it play a part in the story? Oh I'm excited. And...English isn't my first language so do forgive my stupid grammatical errors, lol.

SCENE SUGGESTIONS )

- Lea crying by herself after being provoked about her family.
- Saves a child from the dome's force(?). Like, there could be made up lightning or stuff and she saves the child quickly.
- Have her listen to a conversation between the trappers and trapped. She'll realize that her ability to read people doesn't apply if she can't see the other person's face.
- Have her solve a riddle(?)
- She doesn't reveal that she has mild anemia, and so the rest are confused by her choice of clothing.
- Have her passed out due to fatigue.
- The greater boss finds her 'interesting' and does 'things' to her for a harmless 'expriment'. (I dunno, make her vulnerable and weaker?)
