OVERALL
Selene has rather soft features for the tough personality she projects. Her eyes are a light brown; and usually there is little to no emotion transmitted from them. They remain the same: remote, detached, and distant. She tends to put on a lot of eyeliner to accent her eyes. Her lips are pink and full and on her left cheek there's a beauty mark. Being greek, her skin has a natural tan and her hair is a dark, dark brown. She's petite for her age, standing at only 5'4".
Her attire normally consists of dark clothing, but occasionally she is found wearing bright, neon colors. She's always wearing denim. Always. Whether it's jeans, caprees, or shorts, there's always some form of denim on her legs. Likewise, she normally is wearing black converse as well. Around her neck she wears a skull attached to a thin, enduring chain. When she was little, she had pocketed it from her mother so that she could remember her when she left to live with her father. She is never seen without it.

OVERALL
Sardonic [-] ; Cynical, sarcastic, and armed with dry wit, Selene Nicole Williams often may not come across as the most social tack in the box.
Clever [+] ; Selene has always been pretty bright. Most situations she works herself into are simple and easy to worm her way out of.
Creative [+] ; Although her drawings and sketches may not appear particularly friendly, drawing is one of her few passions. There is hardly an item she owns that isn't marked by her pens, including her own hands.
Secretive [-] ; No matter the incident, almost anything that affects Selene's life is kept a secret from others. Attention is not welcome.
Honest [+/-] ; Selene is honest and down to earth. She says it like she sees it and doesnt pay much mind for one's feelings.
Negative [-] ; The glass is half empty, actually. Selene cannot stand those goody-goodys that don't seem to realize that life is not positive.

OVERALL
Erich Williams was a rich stock broker that worked on Wall Street. Sophia Sophronia was a successful artist for ad campaigns. The two met and fell in love at the launch party of a new business, where Sophia was admiring the logo she had designed and Erich was scoping out investment opportunities. They married after a very brief courtship and lived together for three years before their first child was born. Selene Williams was born and raised in Greece, but at age seven she and her small family moved to New York, New York. Selene quickly picked up on the English language and was speaking it fluently in a matter of years.
When Selene was ten, her parents got divorced. It wasn’t a huge surprise to anyone: Sophia was a free spirit and playful; Erich was always on his cell phone and had no time for menial fun. In the settlement, Selene got to choose who she wanted to stay with. Selene chose her father, a man whom she looked up to greatly. Two years passed, and when she was twelve, Selene discovered her gift - although perhaps the word gift is sort of sugarcoating it. When her father came home from work late one night and saw the shadows she was manipulating, he called her mother. Of course, neither of them knew what to do with her - and so Rosethorn, they decided, was the perfect resolution.
