✴ Appearance ✴
Isabelle is a bit of a black sheep in her family. Her auburn hair and intelligent hazel eyes set her apart from her siblings and her parents. Though her eyes will be the first to catch your attention, they rarely offer any insight into the workings of her mind, remaining locked up to all but those closest to her. Isabelle’s lips stretched into a bright smile will catch one’s eye next, before being drawn to her auburn hair that falls just bellow mid-back. Her facial features are soft and lady like matching the soft but noticeable curves of her body.
✴ Quirks ✴
||Becoming Quiet||
Isabelle has fought for acceptance her whole life, whether it be from her parents and family members or the public. Because of this when she, her values, or her work are questioned, judged, or challenged she will grow extremely quiet and submissive. Even being as smart as she is, she will usually agree with the person even if they are wrong.
||Dumbing herself down||
It is no secret to her family that Isabelle is extraordinarily smart, though even in modern day when a family has title a female who has opinions is not taken kindly. Since she was young she was taught that her intellect was a dangerous thing. So she dumbs herself down to an ‘ordinary level’ acting like she doesn’t understand the more complicated things that come up in discussions when she really does.
✴ Personality ✴
Isabelle has always been warm, generous and acts with a gentle kindhearted grace. Calm and patient, she will listen with a caring ear and when the time is right offer advice without judgement.
Isabelle is very forgiving. Grudges are too much of a burden. She believes there is little to gain from holding onto rivalries, though there are [i]always exceptions to every rule. When it comes to trust, she is not easily won. She finds it to be both a weakness and a strength, her open friendliness draws people to her, she is hesitant to trust them not wanting to expose herself to the worst kinds of pain.
In the public eye and to family it appears that Isabelle is all bright smiles, but it is not all bright smiles behind closed doors. Under her bright façade she has become accustomed to being pushed aside, replaced, and forgotten, good for nothing but her families title and the act of perfection she puts on. This makes her dependent on those she is close to and she finds it hard to let go of people even if the relationship is affecting her in a negative way.
Since it is so hard to gain her trust, once you do Isabelle can grow over-attached quickly, and then, when torn from those she cares for, can fall to the point of severe depression. But a titled girl from a titled family is meant to be beaming with happiness, so she pretends to be just that, painting a false smile on her lips acting like nothing truly pains her keeping up with the act, with the façade.[/i]
✴ History ✴
Isabelle is the third born child to Charles Winston the thirteenth Duke of Marlborough.
Coming from one of the more well known titled families in England, she has been under the public eye since birth. As far as childhoods go, most would assume Isabelle’s was perfect, born into a rich and titled family where she could have whatever she wanted. Her childhood isn’t as perfect as it seemed to be.
Before she was walking Isabelle was making public appearances with her family, being promptly pushed aside as soon as the cameras were gone. While her two older brothers were spoiled and always had their parents attention, she was handed to a nanny and often forgot about. Even though this was the case she was still a fairly happy child.
When Isabelle was walking and talking before the age of one it became clear to her parents that she was different. The intellect that she had been gifted with in the eyes of her parents was a dangerous thing that needed to be pushed down and hidden, their daughter couldn’t be seen making other members of the Queen’s court look like fools.
Isabelle easily lost interest in her studies finding them too easy, she often found solace in music learning both the violin and the piano by the time she was ten. She was always tormented by her older brothers and they were rather merciless about it almost drowning her when she was eleven. After the event Isabelle was the one who was scolded for it. As she got older, she found herself tending to her younger siblings needs more than her own.
When she was around the age of eighteen her father promptly forced her into a relationship she didn’t want to be in, with a man who was quite the brute. The relationship was quickly ended by her parents when the man came home drunk and beat Isabelle for refusing to sleep with him, the story was kept out of the media and was fairly hush hush.
Since then Isabelle has avoided relationships. As pure as they get, she hasn’t even had her first kiss. Instead of focusing on who she should be marrying or who people wanted her to marry, she focused on the needs of her younger siblings and her studies. When she graduated Isabelle’s parents denied her the chance to go to university saying that she didn’t need to as she would never need a job. Though this upset her, she agreed, and continued her studies on her own focusing mostly on chemistry, psychology, criminology, and sociology as she had always had a knack for reading people and was rather talented when it came to human behavior.
Growing tired of always being in the spotlight, Brooklyn made the decision to leave her family home and move to the city of London hoping she could have a chance at a normal life.
