Penelope is a very small, frail girl with a tight and toned dancer's body. A lot of people say she resembles a ballerina doll with her long legs and perfectly pink pouty lips. Penelope moves with grace and balance that all women should move with. Never will you see her without a beat in her step. She is just like porcelain doll when it comes to her translucent skin and dewey blue eyes.
Penelope has long shoulder lengthed dark blonde hair that look brown in the winter and platinum in the summer. She can be pretty metro with the way she takes care of her hair. Her hair is naturally curly but from time to time she just lets it look bedridden. Her arms are skinny and her fingers are long and a painted pink. Her looks match her personal style and personality.
When it comes to style Penelope adores it. She likes the homly things like Agnes B, Chanel, Chloe, Dior, and Louis Vuitton. She even wears things that she makes because she isn't very rich, she just looks rich because of the clothes that the people of her country send over. Many people think she was an It Girl but that couldn't be farther from the truth. Penelope likes to wear whites and pinks to accentuate her pale skin.

x. personality: Penelope is a very warm person; she is friends with everyone and will go out of her way to make them happy. She is also very caring towards those who have been hurt, if she see's someone who is obviously in pain or hurting within, she will sit and comfort them and make sure they are ok before she goes and does anything else. She is the kind of person that anyone can talk to because she listens and communicates with people. She doesn't judge or interrupt people while they are talking about their life or put in her own input without permission. She will however always ask someone if they would like her help and just won't push herself into someone’s life and make their problems worse. Penelope has a huge heart and she will never turn someone away based on looks. Even if you’re the rudest person ever, she’ll try to help you with any kind of problem. Just don’t step on her toes too many times; she will never forgive you for it.
Penelope is also quite the activist. She doesn’t sit around and let anyone get treated wrong. You can be Black, White, Asian, or Hispanic for all she cares. She doesn’t usually take things lightly when it comes to civil rights. If Penelope is standing up for something she really puts all of her heart and soul into making people see the light. A lot of people think that she just has a big mouth and that she needs to learn how to pick her battles. The thing is, she already picked her battle so if she’s arguing with you then you should probably watch out because she isn’t playing. One cause Penelope is pretty fond over would be animal rights. She is an avid member of PETA and she is also a vegan. She will bust her butt to make sure that people are treated fairly and if you aren’t then you can be sure that Penelope will raise hell.
Penelope is also a very bubbly, energetic, and creative girl. Those are probably the best three words to describe her. Penelope hates being stuck doing one thing for an extended period of time. She gets bored pretty easily so you will have to keep her constantly entertained. Penelope can be very immature at times but that’s because she loves to laugh. It doesn’t matter how random, or stupid it is, Penelope will laugh. A lot of people dislike her because she is constantly smiling and always in a good mood. Sometimes she can be rather annoying because she constantly asks questions about her surroundings. It’s not like she’s trying to be annoying its just that she wants to make sure she gets a full grasp of something before she embarks on an adventure. You can almost always see her writing and making up her own stories. Penelope pretty much lives inside her mind. Her outlook on the world is pretty colorful.
Despite being very hyper and easy to get along with, Penelope is the type of girl who you can never really figure out. Penelope has been called ever single name in the book yet you see her walking around like she’s a million dollars. Penelope has that larger than life mentality that sets her apart from the rest. Whenever someone says something about her she will most likely laugh and agree instead of complaining about how rude you are. Sure, Penelope gets involved in drama but that’s all part of being a young adult. The way Penelope deals with the drama is a different story. Penelope is very much into philosophy. She will try to figure out the reason why you called her a bitch. Once she finds the reason she will come back to you with a well educated and well thought out response. Some call her weird but that’s just how Penelope operates.
Another thing to watch out for when you meet Penelope is what you say. Some people end up telling her their whole life story without even realizing that she didn’t say anything about herself. Penelope is pretty mysterious when it comes to putting herself out there. She doesn’t let people see her real emotions even though she smiles at everything. Penelope is forever changing so right when you think you have a grasp on her, she’ll slip away. She could have just won a million dollars but she still wouldn’t tell everyone about it because she likes to keep her life private. When you first meet her, she will most likely come across as confident - but not full of herself. That's what she really wants you to think, so if you did, mission completed.

the history
the history
x. mother:Madeleine Adrienne Beaufort/42/ Fashion Designer
x. other family:Ava Marie/21/Stepmother
x. hometown:Nice, France
x. history: Penelope's parents met around 23 years ago, they were working together for a small fashion agency where Madeleine was the main model and designer and Noël was a struggling photographer. They became great friends on the set and after that Madeleine always tried to get Noël to go on more locations so he could get more jobs. Although they had known each other for quite a while they didn't really start going out until Madeleine was 22 and was starring in her first major runway show in Paris. After about three dates Noel asked Madeleine to marry him. The happy couple ended up married just three months after the proposal and moved to Paris officially to start a family. Pretty soon Madeleine became pregnant with the couple’s first baby. Unfortunately the baby was a stillborn. The cause was because Madeleine was raped as a young child and she was told that she couldn’t have children. Alas, in 1991 Madeleine became pregnant again but she wanted to go on and get an abortion so she wouldn’t have to go through all the pain. Noël convinced Madeleine to see what happens and surprisingly on September 23, 1991 they had Penelope Aimee Beaufort.
Madeleine gave birth to Penelope in Nice, France on a very warm day. Penelope was a very loud and bubbly baby. Madeleine says that Penelope was a very happy baby but she still cried a lot only because she wanted attention. The biggest problem with Penelope was that she never slept and it would frustrate her mother. Penelope has been that way ever since. As a child Penelope was into everything. She was the type of kid who had her fingers in way too many pies and she put her hands on way too many stoves. Penelope has never been one of the types of children to break rules she was the girl that would mind to her and not get into any messes. Penelope grew up with a lot of friends but they never seemed to understand her. Then again no one really did. When Penelope was ten years old she was moved to Paris to go a boarding school. At first she was scared because she didn't know anyone and she would be away from her parents. She didn't think she could fathom living with someone else for a whole year. Eventually, Penelope got to meet and understand the people that lived in Paris and the whole culture. Within the first couple of months Penelope loved Paris more than anything. Penelope began to know Paris like the back of her hand and she even asked to move there with no one but a roommate.
When Penelope turned 14 she was enrolled in an after school performing arts workshop which she absolutely loved. She would always go there to dance, sing, act, and model. She was never a shy child and was just so outgoing when around all her friends and her teachers just adored her enthusiasm in class and in her acting. She was a very popular student with both her peers and her teachers; she was top of all her classes and just enjoyed the social aspect that her schooling gave her. She was attracted to boys at a young age and she began to spend a lot of her time with them, she would laugh with them and just have fun, flirting most would call it. A year later she had her first real boyfriend (besides her husband back in 3rd grade), he was a nice guy and they spent all their time together, she did however always save time for her friends and didn’t' blow them off when they wanted to do something with her. Her first relationship only lasted a short 3 months, but she considered this rather long as it had been her first boyfriend and she was very proud of herself. Penelope does feel a little bit guilty because she hasn't kept in contact with the boy, and she barely rememers his name.
Something terrible happened when she was fifteen years old. Penelope’s father had cheated on Madeleine with a sixteen year old girl. Her family almost fell apart because of this and her father was sent to jail. Penelope’s mother began to blame herself for the whole thing but Penelope knew that her father was the type of man who wouldn't just go out and do something like that. However, it did take a while for Penelope to fully get over that. She just couldn't believe that because of one girl, her whole family fell apart. Penelope hasn't really spoken with her father since because her mother unfairly forbids it. Penelope didn't really have time to get over it because she was starting her sophmore year i a tiny school just outside of Paris. Her sophomore year ended up being one of the most eventful because of Luis. Luis was a guy that Penelope knew from her performing arts workshops that she became attached to. Luis was the typical bad boy who dropped out and Penelope fell for him. Eventually they began dating and after dates they would go to his house to kiss. One day Luis asked her about sex and if she had it yet. Of course Penelope didn't, she always thought of waiting until marriage. Unfortunately Luis kept asking her more and more about it and Penelope felt that if she didn't sleep with him, he'd break up with her. On their "anniversary", Penelope suprised him by letting him go all the way. After that one time of sex, it turned into a daily routine. Penelope never really wanted all of that sex, she just felt it would keep him around. Four months into their relationship, Penelope became pregnant. It was the scariest moment in her life because she had no idea what to do. Luis didn't want to have the baby and he even told her that if she had it, he'd break up with her. At that point, Penelope was very much in love with him and after two weeks of tossing, turning, and crying at night, Penelope decided to get an abortion. Her mother didn't really want her to, but she felt that it was Penelope's decision.
After the abortion, Penelope expected Luis to be there for her but instead he was sleeping with her best friend. Penelope became very heartbroken at that point, she even thought of killing herself over him. Penelope began to think that all men were like her father and Luis and her trust in people became less and less. Like her mother, Penelope knew what was more important in life, and that was God, family, friends, and school. Penelope tried to figure out why he did that to her but she never came up with an answer. That would be Penelope's first and only defeat, even still it was one of the most painful things she's ever been through. Shortly after, Penelope changed her career focus to French Theatre. The main reason for this was so she can get inside someone else’s head and escape from her own life once and a while. While changing her carrer focus, Penelope thought of all the possible schools that had that exact class. Penelope came across Villanova when it was the summer of her tenth grade year. It all came down to Villanova or going to an art school in Asia, but Penelope loved US, she just couldn't imagine leaving it. Also, they supposedly had a really great theatre arts chapter that challenged their students. No one loves challenges more than Penelope so she felt that she could be able to handle the challenges thrown at her here. Since stepping foot inside the school, Penelope has loved every moment of it. It is now her senior year and she hopes that she will be able to excell at Yale.

x. roleplay sample:
Victoria sighed and tapped at her phone as if summoning someone to call her. It could be anyone; it could even be her great grandma for all she cared. Since no one did Victoria rolled her eyes. She really didn’t want to be there at the moment, she should really be in class getting every answer right. Actually, she wouldn’t have cared if she was with someone else but nope, it had to be Xander. Why; Because God did not like Victoria right now. She never in her life met someone as rude, arrogant, or just plain mean as Xander. She can’t believe she even wanted to sleep with him. But still, he didn’t exactly rape her because she agreed to it so she supposes it was her fault. In a way she can see why he’s the way he is because she gets like that too. No matter how much she tried to pretend her life was all happy, it really wasn’t. She hated the fact that her father left her and her mom for her nanny from when she was a baby. She hates the fact that he’s over seas having the time of his life with someone 25 years younger than he was, while she was in New York with her overly stressed mother. She hates how the only person who really cares about her isn’t in her life as much anymore. It wasn’t like Victoria’s mom didn’t care; she just cared way too much. Victoria’s mom was the only person who tried to make her less spoiled so she can get a dose of the real world. This made Victoria very mad because during this whole Xander thing, she counted on her mom to be there for her but instead she basically said I told you so.
Maybe that was why Victoria resented her more than anyone. The good thing about this whole situation was Victoria wasn’t a weak person. She could stand up to anyone and hold her head high in any kind of situation. Victoria stopped thinking when she spotted Xander looking at her again. When he said hey Victoria gave him a half smile and looked down again. She frowned slightly when he asked about her “fucking life”. Victoria didn’t know how to answer that but she did anyway. “Great; just trying to stay on top for my last year here”. Victoria was happy that this was the last year of high school because she already had colleges calling. It came down to either Juilliard or Yale. If she picked Yale she’d be out of New York which was great but she knew she’d like Juilliard better. Although, school in Europe seemed like a lot of fun so she thought she should look into that. “What about you”. Victoria got hungry suddenly; so she began to regret not eating like her maid tried to force her to do this morning. She decided to take a little peek in her bag for an apple or something while still looking up so she could pay attention to whatever Xander was going to say. Even though she tried to keep her distance she didn’t want to be rude to anyone. This whole situation reminded her of some poorly written soap opera. Lately her whole life has been a soap opera
