Full Name:
Catarina Julie Holmes
Nickname(s):
Cat
Age:
26
Birthday:
April 24th
Profession:
Actress
Catarina was born on April 24th to Keith and Julie Holmes. She was their only child and their pride and joy. Keith worked as a director and had met Julie, an actress, on the set of a movie that they were working on together. The two married and conceived Catarina shortly after. She was their only child and their pride and joy.
Keith passed away of an unexpected heart attack when Cat was ten years old, but her mother only remained single for a few months before becoming engaged and then married to Richard Wells. Although the idea of a man replacing her father upset Cat at first, she grew to tolerate, and even sometimes like Richard, and eventually accepted him as a friend. She was happy that her mother was content with her new marriage but wasn't interested in developing a relationship with Richard's estranged daughter from a previous relationship, or with the half-sister that was born to her mother and Richard shortly after they married. Luckily, Catarina was enrolled in a private boarding school for her high school years so she spent most of her time there and on sets acting, rather than with the family.
Her parents were an easy gateway into the show business and she was only six years old when she landed her first major role in a film. Catarina went on to act in various movies and television programs and three years ago, won an Academy Award for best actress. Although she knows that she will be living in her mother's extraordinary acting shadow, Cat has done pretty well for herself and is considered to be a blossoming actress with potential to meet her mother's success.
Despite how great her career was going, she had to cancel the project she was working on when her mother and stepfather died. The news hit her extremely hard, especially since her own father was already dead as well, but she has done her best to hold herself together publicly. Her mother and Richard had specifically stated in the will that they wanted their youngest daughter, Erin, to be raised by her two older sisters, and although Cat dislikes Enamie, she has agreed to move back home, at least temporarily, to respect their wishes. It seems like moving back home would be easy enough, but an incident that occurred a few months back has made things even more awkward between her and her stepsister. Enamie had brought her boyfriend to a party that their parents were throwing for some special ocassion and after a few cocktails, he started flirting with her and she reciprocated, and well... things got more heated that Cat had intended for them to be.
Adventurous, ambitious, witty, independent
Negative Traits:
Provocative, calculated, dramatic, pessimistic
Personality:
Catarina claims to be a realist but most of the time, it tends to translate to her being pessimistic. She prefers not to get her hopes up and generally sees the bad in people before the good. It's hard for her to trust anyone and she rarely opens up to anyone, even those who are very close to her. She's the type of girl who feels like people will take her emotions for weakness, so she tends to give off a cold and bitter sense to most people. She tends to provoke situations and likes to see how far she can push people until they snap. Most of the time, she isn't doing it with the intentions of hating them, but just to determine what type of person they are. Although she appears to be very indifferent, Cat is actually very sensitive and doesn't react well to criticism of any kind. Whether it's based on her work or just on her personal self, she dislikes anyone commenting on what she does and takes it personally. This relates to her competitiveness, and how she feels like she needs to be better than everyone at everything, despite knowing how unrealistic that is.
Her desire to succeed has had its positives though, especially when it comes to her career. She's very ambitious and hard working and will press people until she gets what she wants. She is independent and actually hates having to rely on anyone for anything, especially emotionally. Cat also has a good sense of humor. She is quick witted and sometimes a bit sarcastic.
