Dru Charlesburg

[cinder]

Name: Dru Bellatrix Charlesburg
Age: 14 originally, died at 15
Gender: Female
District/Area: District 1
Appearance:

Brown hair falls in wavy disorder down to Dru’s shoulders. It’s a beautiful color, and Dru is proud to say she's been asked numerous times where she got it dyed. Her hair is natural of course, the teen has never been into Capitol styles and hair-dye, as she finds it should be a privilege only certain people can enjoy, beauty of course! The face you see when she pushes her unruly, nice hair away is stunning. Its obvious Dru is one of those stereo-type District One girls who is rich and perfect. Her sharp, critical blue eyes stare out at the world, slightly narrowed in disgust and understanding that she is just one of those few people who is better than everybody else. They are like two, perfect sapphires sitting in the sea of beauty that is her face. The lips so often twisted into a sly, evil grin are a delicate pink color. Her nose is small and Dru has also been asked where she got that done. Dru has pale skin, but traces of the tan she so desperately needs and want are visible. Dru isn't Goth-Pale, but in her opinion if she got just slightly darker, Dru would be truly the most unique, coveted light skin-tone, and she could tell everybody its natural! Dru is just working with her God-Given looks, and thankfully they are pretty good. Dru knows she's just special, and sees no reason to discriminate against anybody for such trite things as just their looks. It’s the whole package that matters. Dru is tall, and expects to grow a bit more before she's reached her full height, and grown into her figure. Dru also, of course, lacks in the usual teenage acne and uncoordination. Her mother and father are both extremely handsome people, and her mom has even gone to the Capitol, to represent the vain people that make up Dru's beloved District One. Dru though never feels she is enough for them, sure she knows she's stunning and still hasn’t reached her prime-time age of beauty, but her mother and father have accomplished enough to make Dru feel insignificant. They are the only people to ever, make Dru feel that way. The young Miss Charlesburg absolutely loathes them for it, as she cant help but think her parents find her unworthy or something. Dru cant help but think she isn't pretty enough for them—the possibility that’s she maybe too pretty hasn’t occurred to her yet, but its not long before the young Miss Charlesburg does something crazy because of this. Some may think, ‘they’re her parents, they cant think she's unworthy because she's not good looking enough for them!’ But they’re wrong--It’s actually a very real possibility seeing as how she was adopted.

[/blockquote]Personality:

What you see is what you get. Dru is that social butterfly that everybody likes. So you wanna get all curious and snoopy? Okay, so maybe Dru has her secrets but that’s her business and not anybody else's. The teen has been involved in the whole gang scene, but a year or so ago just stopped caring about those trite, stupid gang-wars. Dru is a girl much more interested in the trite, stupid social-wars now. Sure the two things seem the same, but Dru looks at it as, she's getting all the benefits of juicy gossip and huge fights without the danger of offense commanders and defense and assassins and stuff. Dru was never a big-wig, preferring to just hang around and learn about the whole system (she's a freak about watching social circles--learned a lot of useful stuff though) but eventually, after going on a deadly trip, Dru just up-and-left the scene. She's not really popular, but Dru is tough enough Careers don’t question when she tags along on their social outings, or teases them. Dru is one of those girls who watches, plots, then takes over. One day the young lady hopes to be Mayor of District One. Dru isn't book-smart, but she's street-smart, charismatic, and undeniably powerful. Even those tough guy types somehow always ends up doing what she tells them to, no matter how stupid or dangerous. Dru has no opinion on the Capitol and all the atrocious stuff they do, and wouldn’t blink if they stayed in power her whole life, or somehow were over-thrown. Dru, like most young people easily adapts to hard situations. The girl wasn’t raised a Career, but she would have a pretty good chance at winning the Hunger Games if her name was picked. She's always gotten in trouble for just ignoring the Games, and while it’s the huge social event of the year, Dru the Observer cant bring herself to watch the Games. Its not the deaths, or gore that bother her, it’s the pure, raw, human emotion. Dru has always been a cool ice queen, and she truly despises seeing all the victims die, that look on their face. Some with tender love, and smiles, the pain on their faces—so they died, sucks for them. Why the heck do they have to make it so clear? Dru has always bottled up her emotions, if she ever even has any, and having to watch people just let it all out, plain on their faces is torture. Death is a necessary part of life, why be afraid of it? Love will always end in heart-break so just make sure the other person hurts more than you. Youth and looks will fade, so put yourself above everybody else and stay there. Dru knows the secret to life is to look after herself first, and make sure everybody else looks worse than her. Period. That’s why she doesn’t try to seize power just yet, Dru knows she needs to wait till she almost at her peek of beauty and has a few minions before taking her chance to rule the world. Shockingly enough, Dru has thought about joining or starting a rebellion in the next few years, as she thinks anybody stupid enough to go against the Capitol would be easily twisted. She could take control of the idiots pretty easily. If you haven't noticed it, Dru is a pretty rotten girl, but she doesn’t need love to get better, Dru needs somebody willing to put themselves above her, and tell her like it is. Tell her what she is, a monster.

History:

District Twelve, the Capitol, and District One. In that order, are the three places Dru has lived. She was born to a dying widow, the first child of both her parents, although Dru’s father never got to see darling, baby Lily Brown. Jenna Brown, the mother died only a few hours after giving birth, the morning of the Reaping. It was tragic, and District Twelve’s representative, a woman by the name of Johanna LeBouef came to visit the dying woman. She had been a peace-keeper, and Johanna had thought it would make a good story to tell the other reps about the dying woman. It seemed so dramatic, and opened a great conversation on how pitiful her District was! Upon arrival, Miss LeBouef was shocked by the woman's immense beauty even at deaths door. Pale, creamy skin, deep blue eyes, and dark hair—Johanna immediately decided she wanted to dye her hair darker when she got home the Capitol. The woman died, and that’s when Johanna noticed the baby. Looking down at it, Johanna could not believe how much the young girl looked like her mother. Of course the baby was slightly different, her hair was much lighter, and the baby was much smaller, but Johanna could not resist picking her up. Four hours later, Lily Brown had become Chanel LeBouef, resident of the Capitol. Johanna was thrilled with her new daughters, as babies were in style that year, and this one was like the designer baby. Johanna, of course never took into consideration what her spoiled, bratty four year old daughter would think of the new baby. As time passed, Devona, Chanel’s older sister, got used to her. Chanel was shy, cute, and adored her sibling. It all changed when Devona turned ten. Looking down at her little sister, the rotten girl grew jealous. Devona had blue eyes, but they were too light, and watered easily, Chanel had big, dark blue eyes. Devona had pale skin, but she looked sickly compared to Chanel's ivory, creamy skin. Devona realized her little sister was certainly prettier than her, and even at such a young age, powerful and elegant. Devona hated her, and finally convinced her mother to, ‘give her back.’ Chanel was given to a Capitol Hospital, where if she survived a surgery, would be allowed back into the Districts. The surgery was one to erase all her memories, and tweak her brain so she could never get angry or throw fits. If the surgery worked, the Capitol was one step closed to making perfect, good little children. It worked, well enough. Chanel, now named Dru, or really Drusilla spent a year in the hospital in a hypnotic state as they fed her leis about her past. Dru swallowed the lies, and finally when she was allowed to be her, it was immediately noticed she had grown darker, meaner… unemotional. Dru’s surgery was declared a partial success, as she had lived, but come out nearly inhuman. She was given to the Charlesburg’s, believing she had always been their daughter. Dru grew older, and slowly is starting to piece together her past, and grow more emotional. Its as though the surgery didn’t even do anything, as if all it took was her being hypnotized. Dru doesn’t know, nor care much about her past though, so everything's fine for now.
