Name: Alexis Mae DiAvanzo
Nickname: Lexy
Age: Just turned 18
Gender:Female
Career Aspiration: Professional Photographer
Personality: Lexy is a pretty open person. She is moderately social, and when it comes to making friends she is pretty quick in making them. She loves to smile, and enjoys being in the company of her friends and with those she trusts. She is also a rather realistic person, and keeps her head close to the heart when it comes to life changing decisions. She hates being told what to do, and especially being lied to by others. She isn't exactly the type of person who you can lie to easily, but hates being deceived and taken advanced of when she is. She can't stand being around people who pretend to be something they aren't, which is including those who are fakes and who try too hard to fit in. She is also quite the hypocrite, and tends to speak negatively about bad habits she does herself. As well as being a hypocrite, Lexy also has a pretty bad temper. When caught in a bad moment, she often lashes out to the people around her. She cannot function properly when she is in one of her moods, especially when she is sleep deprived, and usually ends up taking back whatever she said or did a day or two later.
As well as taking photographs, which is a habit she acquired from her grandma before she died, Lexy also loves to swim. Even as a child she enjoyed being in water, and while the other kids her age used to afraid of swimming in the 'deep' side, Lexy showed no fear. In the free time from working in her parent's restaurant (and school), Lexy often escapes to the neighborhood pool at least once a week for about an hour or two of swimming. Lexy also enjoys dancing, but under no circumstance is she talented in doing so. Those who've seen her dance, mostly just her friends and family, often make fun of her. Lexy doesn't really care much of it, and continues to dance because it is something she enjoys.

Background: Alexis Mae DiAvanzo isn’t the youngest in her family, neither the oldest or middle, she is an only child. You would imagine Lexy to turn out spoiled and snobby because of that, but, in fact, as she grew up pretty much without her parents. Her parents where almost never home, and were too busy operating the family 5 star restaurant to take care of their only daughter. As a child, she was often taken care of by hired nannies or, ‘helpers’ like her mom like to call them. Ever since she was born, her parents were often too preoccupied with the restaurant to ever sit down and talk with their daughter. Yes, they were pretty rich because of the restaurant, but all that didn’t matter to Lexy. She just wanted to be able to have a regular family dinner with her parents, one where they would all just sit down and eat, rather than just grabbing something from the kitchen and leaving. In time, she became used to it, and began to understand that that process was just how her life was. She couldn’t change it.
Now, that Lexy is 18 years old, her parents have begun talk about what would happen to the business once they would retire. Of course they expected Lexy to take over; since she was an only child it was her only choice, they told her. The problem is, Lexy doesn’t want to become a chef or a manager who would run the restaurant. She wanted to become a photographer. {more to be revealed in the roleplay.}
Other: After hearing about what happened to the Titanic as a child, Lexy grew up to be terrified of boarding on any kind of boat or ship. She would never go on a cruise with her parents after she heard about what happened to all the passengers on the Titanic, and was often left alone with her grandma when they went on family cruises to Disney world and such. Even today, an alarming 18 years old, Lexy still can't stand getting on a boat. She is still terrified.
