Dominant Emotion:Euphoric
Personality:Audrey is sweet, easygoing, and cheerful. She takes care of everyone and everything, and is careful not to mistreat people or say the wrong things, although she has trouble not voicing her thoughts.She is extremely outgoing, making friends with everyone and everything she meets, and is loyal and dedicated to her friends, family, and even acquaintances.She is often playful, giggling, and joking, and she expresses affection for people openly and without hesitation. She is very empathetic, and cannot resist helping people in need.She is excited easily, and delighted by many simple things, such as bubbles, the sunrise, and noodles in the shapes of the alphabet.
If you dig deeper, however, Audrey just isn't the carefree, somewhat childish teenager. She loves making conversation with inanimate objects, plants, and animals. She believes they have emotions and thoughts of their own, and they also have their individual personalities. She treats them like humans, and brings surprise and discomfort to those around her. Her disease is one of mild schizophrenia. If someone tries to 'harm' an object, she will object and put up a fight, sometimes even ending in violence.
She is very naive, and is very closed off to the real evil in the world. She doesn't realize the selfishness and bad in people until someone points it out to her. She thinks people are just misunderstood, or still has the child-like disposition of talking to people that are not good for her, or people she shouldn't associate with. She is innocent, and a a true romantic, and doesn't believe people when they tell her love does not exist.
Still, the child qualities she possesses are rare in her age group. She is never reserved in her emotions,and she is transparent in her feeling and thinking. She openly voices thoughts that other people might want to suppress. She is candid about everything and everyone, and this brings an innocent wisdom only found in children. She is good-natured, self-confident, and is tolerant and accepting of new ideas. She is optimistic about outcomes and goals, and the only person she competes with is herself.
Academically, she stays at the top of her grade, which frustrates others. She does, however, work very hard to be where she is.Sometimes she has problems processing information, or making sense of it. She accepts mature concepts but cannot always practice them. She also isn't good at mental math, but, being the leader of the chess club, is good at applying logic to theoretical situations, and critical thinking. She will, however, take help from others, which is why the White Rabbit controls a lot of things in the Chess Club.
Surprisingly, when Audrey used to model, the pictures that were taken reveal a mature, thoughtful individual. This is probably the personality Audrey is forced to lock away because of her disease, and every photograph reveals the different side to her, that might never come out.

History: As a child, Audrey was told to believe in dreams. Her parents fully believed she should take hold of and appreciate her imagination. Audrey's biological father left before Audrey was born, so her mother always told her he was a secret spy, and he couldn't stay with the family any longer because it would put them in danger. Audrey still believes this story,never questions it, and she loves her step-father very much, having spent almost all her life with him.Growing up, Audrey would develop stories and tales, and her parents would love it and encourage her. At first, everything was ok, since playing tea party with her stuffed animals was perfectly normal for a little girl, and also adorable. But 'playing' with her stuffed animals never stopped, and one day, when Audrey was nine,her parents found her having a conversation outside with one of the trees, who she called Mabel, and her stuffed bunny Jack. They laughed at her and told her to stop playing around, and she was confused on why they thought she was goofing off. Audrey had grown up speaking to inanimate objects, and slowly thought they were better friends than her real ones. She imagined them having a life, a family, a personality, and when she told her parents all about Mabel and Jack, they were scared and took her to a doctor.
The doctor diagnosed her with mild schizophrenia, and told her parents there was no way to stop it. Her parents, most especially her mom, cried, and Audrey did not know how to console her, since she didn't think anything was wrong.Her parents tried to make her life as normal as possible, stuffing her with activities such as piano and gymnastics lessons. However, her teachers, friends, and anyone that laid eyes on her for more than a few hours came to realize she was insane, and her parents would have to quietly and privately tell them about her condition. As Audrey started to get older, her parents tried to take Jack away from her.
She violently retaliated, shouting at her parents for wanting to take her best friend away from her, and kicking and punching them away from Jack. She scraped herself along a table, which is where she got her scar. While she was at school, they cut Mabel down, in a blind, stupid call for their daughter's sanity back. It had the opposite effect, as Audrey wept for Mabel's life, hugging the stump where 'she had been', calling her parents cruel,heartless murderers, and shouting she would never forgive them. And she never did.
When she turned fourteen, Audrey started modeling, and also photography classes. Her parents were amazed at the girl in the photos, not believing Audrey was the girl in them. She was poised, had a silent elegant grace, and looked mature.They took her to more modeling gigs just so they could see the results.They wondered if their daughter could truly be like this, and were saddened when they thought this was the real Audrey, and she would not come out.
At school, Audrey was 'the weird girl', and she couldn't pinpoint why she was. Her friends, except for a few, were only her friends because they pitied her,or they wanted to marvel at her and her illness. Her teachers did not know how to deal with her, but eventually ignored how she spoke to anything, and admired her intellect. Her brother, however, was the only real person she now truly loved, and they spent a lot of time together. He seemed to be living normally, and no one seemed to judge him, and she was envious of this. At the same time, he was the only one that treated her almost normally, and for that she was grateful.
Her parents had finally gotten to the stage where they accepted her disease. They would not mind Audrey now spoke to the kitchen appliances, the fan in her bedroom, or the drapes in the living room. They only asked that she not bring Jack everywhere, since people would be jealous and try to take Jack away from her. Audrey agreed, and her parents were relieved at this small accomplishment. When she got too talkative around strangers, they would hush her and ask her to be polite, and she obliged, thinking she was rude. Her parents noticed that, although Audrey was not fully sane, she was academically brilliant, always honest, and undeniably sweet and kind. They finally embraced her, as they couldn't wish for a better daughter, and realized the personality she had now, even if she was ill, was truly her own.But, they sent her to the Wonderland Academy so she could be with people that could take care of her and would not judge her.
After a few months, they also sent her brother, and was excited and relieved to see him, since she wouldn't know how to get along without him, and missed him terribly. Her parents told her that he was not the same, and he sometimes has mild amnesia. Whenever he gets like that, she knows how to bring him back. She still treats him normally, just like he does to her.
