Caramia Addio

Nickname: Cara

Age: 16

Appearance: Black hair that is often pulled to the side in a sort of ponytail, her hair gives off a sort of violet tinge in the sunlight, her skin is almost ghostly, and she has a very thin frame and dainty figure. She has a narrow waist and narrow hips, she often wears a blue hoodie and a dark brown, flowy skirt that stops just over her knees. Her eyes are big, round and the colour of melted chocolate. Her height is small, she's only about 5'2"

Personality: Caramia is a rather timid and very quiet individual, though she does have a sense of wisdom about her, which is odd, considering she cannot speak. She is usually optimistic and trying to keep people smiling on the darkest of days. However, she's also rather naive, and this makes it easy for people with a malicious intent to manipulate her rather easily if they wanted to, with the right words of course. Caramia is always willing to help out, but she is also quite the coward sometimes, and makes it hard to make important decisions. She is also very um... wussy when it comes to physical or emotional pain. She cries rather easily.

Good traits: She is kind, optimistic, sweet, and will always help someone out, she again, has a sense of wisdom about her and puts people before herself, being rather generous.

Bad Traits: She is rather shy, and isn't the type to just waltz over to someone to have a nice conversation with them, she is very timorous and finds it hard to make important decisions, she also is very sensitive and seems to deflate when she receives criticism, she is very delicate and naive. She is also Mute.

Fears: Her worst fear is being alone her entire life. She also is afraid of heights, and, admittedly, the dark.

Dreams: When Caramia was little she wanted to be an actress, but she was quickly informed that it would be impossible for a stupid runt like her to become a movie star, she doesn't even have a voice! Now, now Caramia doesn't really know what she wants to be... She had her heart set on acting for so long that she didn't give anything else a thought.

Background: Caramia was born a mute, unable to speak, her mother and father loved her absolutely blindly, not caring for her flaws, they saw her as perfectly beautiful. Her mother was of Italian origin, and convinced her husband to name their daughter "Caramia", which is a combination of two Italian words that mean "My Dear", though her mother would often call Caramia her "Mia Belle", meaning "My Beautiful Girl".
However, the rest of the family really did not think she was so perfect. The family saw her as imperfect, unnecessary, the works. The adults constantly told Caramia's parents that they should have given her up at birth, a mute child wouldn't amount to anything. Her parent's disagreed angrily, "Look at Stephen Hawking" they said "He's mute, and has a brilliant mind, who are you to say Caramia won't amount to anything?"
Her cousins didn't really bully her as much as avoid her, not wanting her to play with them, they never said anything terribly nasty to her, but nonetheless, didn't want her around. So Caramia was often only playing with her beloved parents.

How they became a orphan(their parents don't have to be dead): When she was around 7 years old, her parents were taking her to the Ice Cream store for a frozen treat at around 7 PM, Caramia was simply enjoying the music that was playing on the radio, a pair of headlights appeared on the road, swerving and coming closer, a black van skidded on it's side straight towards them, it collided with the side of the vehicle of Caramia and her parents with such force that their car toppled onto it's side, the impact killed her father instantly, and knocked her mother unconscious. Caramia was sent into a foster home, where she was treated with no more kindness than her own family gave her.
Eventually, her mother woke up, but they found that the collision had given her Amnesia. No matter how many times she was told that Caramia was her daughter, she refused to believe it, and, with obvious influence from her relatives, disowned Cara. Who was sent off to live in the Orphanage.
She's really been there ever since, keeping to herself away from everyone else. And she doesn't mind being alone too much...
Maybe...
