Quirks
ā§ Takes Long Showers ā§
Pandora apologizes in advanced if there is no hot water left after she is done bathing. The girl contemplates things in the shower, as well as sings a song or two. Again she is sorry.
ā§Pacingā§
When nervous, under pressure, or angry - she begins pacing. She'll end up walking back and forth in the area she's in, and at times others find it rather annoying. Sometimes she doesn't even notice she's doing it.
ā§Won't Wear Gold Jewelryā§
We all have those things that we just don't do for whatever reason. This is hers. All her jewelry is silver, bronze, or nickel. Never will she wear gold jewelry.

Addictions
ā¢Coffeeā¢
Pandora forgets when she started drinking coffee. Now she does everyday. On a normal day she has about 3 cups. On a hectic day - she'll have more. Trying to talk with her before she gets her morning coffee is like talking to a brick wall. Others beware.
ā¢Playing Guitarā¢
Some could argue that playing guitar isn't much of an addiction. Others could say otherwise. Pandora spends at least 3 hours each day on her guitar, no questions asked. The wooden beauty keeps her sane, and helps to calm her in the worst of times.
Secrets
ā Self-Harm/Depressionā
Around her sister she keeps a smiling face on. Though she trust her sister with her life, and would do anything for her, she keeps this from her. It's rare to see Pandora not wearing long sleeves and jeans, and when she's forced to wear something other than long sleeves, enough concealer and foundation works to cover up the marks.
ā Terrible Self Esteemā
One really couldn't guess by talking to her, or even knowing her that she has a terrible self esteem. To the world her smiling face and sarcastic comments keep their eyes away from the real her. Compared to her sister she's always felt...inadequate. Her sister is the beautiful amazing one, she wasn't left with much she feels.
Distinct Markings
Scars:
Pandora has struggled with self harm ever since she was 11. There are faint marks on her wrist and thighs. Apart from those there is a lovely faded scar on the back of her right thigh from when she was a child, and was hit with a screwdriver. Who knew it would leave that much of a mark?
Piercings:
Pandora has a nose ring and a few ear piercings.
Tattoos:
She has a few tattoos. One on her right shoulder blade, one on her left ankle, a jelly fish on her right arm, and a sort of geometric design on her left arm.
Personality
To those around her she's a happy go lucky person. Always smiling, always cheering others up. It's rare to see her without a smile, and when others are around her, it's rare to see them without one as well. She's always being a bit of a goof. Doing funny dances, making weird faces, doing strange things - she plays the quirky card. Her humor can be rather dark or light depending on the day, but she always remains sarcastic and clever with her thought out words. She's one to think before she speak, contrary to popular belief. When a person if feeling down, she always tries to find a way to pick them back up. Her personal motto is that she never wants anyone to feel like she does. Singing and playing guitar is her passion, and she hopes to one day sign a record deal so for once she'll be able to support herself and her sister. She's tired of being a burden on her older sister. There isn't a waking moment she doesn't feel bad about all the effort her sister put in to get custody of her.
Behind the happy, funny, and quirky girl she portrays herself as - is a much darker side. It's the side she wishes to forget. The side she hides from others. Underneath the mask you will find a sad, depressed, lonely girl that wants nothing more than to feel...something. Pandora has asked herself on many occasions why she is so unhappy, and she doesn't really know. There is just that constant feeling of sadness in the corner of her existence, always trying to make itself present.
When faced with difficulties Pandora is a stuffer. She'll just take it and put the problem in a bottle. It seems as of late however, her bottle is coming near the overflowing point - and when that happens nobody knows what will happen to Pandora.
Love is a tricky concept to the girl, because in all honesty she doesn't really know what it is. She loves her sister, but has trouble feeling loved. Moving around from home to home she's never really had any sort of relationship with anyone. The main reason she is scared of love, is because she's afraid that in the end she'll become like her father. Destructive.
History
No one ever gets a perfect past. For the girl Pandora, this much was at least true. Her past was far from perfect. There were no loving parents, only her older sister Dareean. Pandora remembers nothing of her Father's kindness. Her sister has told her on multiple accounts that before their Father started drinking he was an okay man. She couldn't recall. All she remembered was fighting, beating, and yelling. Her older sister always tried to take the blows for Pandora, but it seems in the end they got their equal share. Not even her sister could save the girl all the time.
The fosters home were really never much better than their situation before. It was all people looking for the extra money that came with fostering a child. The only thing that really kept Pandora sane was her sisters presence in these stranger homes. When she was 11 however, she began cutting herself to help ease the pain. She feels as if it's the only thing she can control in this world - so she does it in the hopes it'll make her feel better, which it never really does.
When here sister turned 18, that was when they were separated. Until her sister got custody of Pandora, those were the hardest years of her life. Often she looked as killing herself to be an option, but she couldn't do that without seeing her lovely sister. Pandora was beat terribly in the house that she ended up living in when her sister was gone. She would often go to bed bloody and bruised, her tears being her only lullaby.
Overjoyed wasn't the word Pandora used when her sister got custody of her. She used the word "Mega fucking titbuckets awesome". Pandora was happy to finally be alongside her sister, and convinced to try help pay for things she got a job straight away in the city. The girl is completely aware of her sisters hard work and sacrifice for her, and she respects her sister to no end. She only wishes that her sister would share the load, they are siblings after all.
