Personality: Lav is quite the sweet heart. She is out to get everyone's acceptance and will pull all the stops to get what she wants. She's never really had friends and has a hard time trusting others. Although she understands that one needs people to live. So she has become accustom to using others to get what she needs or wants. She has no true intentions of ever telling anyone what she really thinks or feels because she sees this as a sign of weakness and doubt in herself. Whenever Lav is graced with the presence of another, all she can really think about is how she can use that person. This is all due to her many years in the foster system.
When Lav gets mad, she doesn't tell you and acts like everything is fine. Though you may find bugs in your bed and nair in your shampoo. She holds grudges for longer then she can remember the disloyalty. Trying to make peace with Lav is a better idea then playing into her sick game of revenge. This is the only way she knows how to express her anger because this is how adults in her life expressed their anger to her. She is never angered easily though, she has to have her trust broken first which is rare and unlikely to happen since she trusts no one.
Lav has never loved another human being. The fact is, she isn't sure what love is. She believed she felt it once when she had a pet rabbit but the rabbit died and so did any feelings of affection. This makes it very hard for Lav to get jealous over anything. This can sometimes make Lav seem down to earth and trick even more people into believing she is the fake sweetness she portrays herself to be. The only reason she seems normal is because she understand how to socialize and communicate with others. She has the nickname of 'good listener' and 'quite thinker' all because of her seemingly timid manner. Don't let Lavinia fool you otherwise you will just be another one of her playthings.
Fears: Lav fears extreme heat. Her first orphanage was set on fire when she was three. She was trapped in there and the building was about to collapse. She would have died if someone hadn't come in to rescue her. Though she did start the fire. Now Lav can't stand the sight of flames. Even the smallest match will send this girl running in the opposite direction. Lav can't stand people who realize what she really is. Once she finds out that someone knows her true personality, they are on her black list. She fears them because she then believes others will realize who she is as well. So she tries her best to stay away from people who have figured out her devious intentions. Though if they get in the way too much Lav may start perceiving them as someone to get rid of. Lav is deeply bothered by stuffed animals. They remind her of dead animals being sewn up and put together by one of the children in her first orphanage. She tends to stay away from arcades and carnivals because there are always tons of stuffed animals. She will call in sick on any holiday where stuffed animals could be given as a gift. The stuffed animals just remind her of fire only increasing her fear of the stuffed animals.
Weakness: Lav's one true weakness is fire. Just as she fears it, it makes living a normal life near impossible because she refuses to cook, be near a kitchen, fireplace, or any one who is smoking. This leads to her having major set backs in trying to hide who she is which causes another fear to onset. Fire cause Lav to have a panic attack. Her heart begins to pound loudly out of her chest while her palms begin to sweat. Her legs wobble and she collapses on to the floor gasping for breath. Then, she can't feel her heart anymore and can't breath but only for a moment. This is the panic attack Lavinia experiences with even a glimpse of fire.
Likes: Anything cold. Really. She loves cold soups, cold meats, and she really loves cold fresh cut watermelon. Lav has an odd taste for books but she does love reading just about anything, anywhere. She enjoys pools even though she can barely swim. Lav loves the outdoors because it's where she mostly grew up. She is enticed with nature and feels with one when she is outdoors. She likes to play the fife whenever possible. Lavinia's favorite thing to do is gymnastics. She learned how to sew when she was young and acquired an interest in sewing dresses. Lavinia likes to be alone sometimes, just to get her thoughts together and to clear her mind.
Dislikes: She hates fire. Lav can't stand people who try to understand her better then the mask she puts on for everyone else. She refuses to be in the same room as a stuffed animal. She hates the smell of something being cooked. She can't stand the smell of anything burning either because it reminds her of fire. She can't handle a room with more than twenty people. She despises school and homework. She hates most people. Lav doesn't really enjoy singing or listening to others sing. Lav can't stand people joking about death. Lav doesn't like to be tricked or deceived. Lav hates those that break her trust the most.

Brief Background: Lav was born in Russia to a Chinese prostitute. After being abandoned at a Siberian orphanage with her twin brother Ezra, she was subject to neglect and torture. When she turned three, she began to finally hold some memories. Ezra gave her a fife he had made out of one of the spanking paddles there. She played it everyday until Ezra got in trouble. As punishment, he was sent into one of the more deranged child's room to be killed. With no other option, Lavinia set the orphanage on fire in hopes to save her brother. She was rescued just before the orphanage collapsed and believes her brother to be dead. She was then adopted by a rich Russian and raised to take over his companies. Though she always got into trouble and was finally shipped off to this new school to hopefully learn some manners.
I've moved around my entire life. I hate it. I remember only three things. Ezra is dead, shoo left me, and I am now going to a school where I am going to be groomed to be some man's bride.
