[/size][/center][/blockquote][/blockquote]Personality:My name is Kalmia Waxflower. I am sixteen years old, and live in the seam of district 12. Im a girl, durh.
I look into the mirror and see...
The first thing you notice about Kalmia is one thing: She looks like everyone else in the seam. She dosent have any distinctive features, she simply blends in.
Her skin is olive toned, barely scarred at all. She isnt particularly tall, nor is she short. Standing at somewhere around 5' 5'', she has medium length legs and torso, which she finds rather plain.
I assume her face isnt drop dead gorgeous. A straight nose, medium sized eyes, normal lips. Her eyes are almost silver colored, a shade lighter than most of the other eyes, even though it is not very noticeable.
Her hair is dark brown, cut at the beginning of her back. Her hair has a slight wave to it, that is barely visible unless you examine her hair closely. She has sideswept bangs that keep out of her eyes most of the time.
Her manner that she carries herself is niether elegant, nor inelegant. Her gait is longer than most, which kind of makes it look like she has longer legs than she actually does.
Her flaws are many, but very subtle. She has sparse eyelashes, her feet are large, she has sudden outbursts of skin conditions every once in a while, her teeth arn't exactly straight.
Her clothes are probably her most stand outtish feature, with her rule being you never go anywhere without her old, rusty looking boots. The boots are spray painted gold, which she usually has paint splattered jeans tucked into. The jeans are usually ill fitting, except for at the waist, so she has to tailor them. Above the jeans is usually a tight fitting three quarter sleeve top and an unbuttoned long sleeve dress shirt that usually serves as an outer layer to her, though there is variation in her clothes. She makes these clothes out of old scraps that she finds of her mothers clothes, which usually results in certain stains. The clothes are not in the slightest very fancy.Kalmia can be described as many things: an attention seeker, all about her, dramatic, thirst for the spotlight. But really, she has Histrionic personality disorder, a disorder that makes her want to seek attention constantly, making her constantly try to earn others apporval in anything. From her new variety of paint splatters to her presentation on the process of bringing coal from the mines. She seeks approval from everyone.History:
She is also a narcissism, which means its all about her all the time, and if it dosent go her way, she can have a violent temper. She would backlash on you as fast as you could say her name. It could involve hitting you with an item. Or murder.
But, she is also is very good with fabric. She loves styling clothes as much as you would think someone from her district would. She is very creative, and while she is self centered most of the time, it works for her in this aspect. She can make a simple dress out of an old pair of pants so quickly. And make it look good. With Tulle, which she considers the worst material ever.
She is almost unbearable to be around, but at the same time, she has an aura that seems to attract many people. Not a "you like me instantly" but sort of one that sneaks up on you, and is like a light getting closer and closer to you. She cant really influence people on things, but People do like her after a while. she just takes some getting used to. She isnt exactly mean, just is very self centered. If you look past her all about her", she could be considered quite the mary sue. Normal. Average. And, by this, she considers a good thing.Born to a teenage mother on November 6th on a rainy day in the seam. The apothecary lady was immediately reminded of the Bog Laurel by her cheeks, so she named her in secret, not telling her disoriented mother about it until the mother about it until two or three days later. Her mother frankly didnt care, so she just shrugged it off.
As Kalmia grew up, she learned to make clothing from her first grade teacher, Mrs. Calls, whos mother came from District Eight. Kalmia looked up to Mrs. Calls, due to her lack of mother. Her mothers support was very limited, usually hazed by liquor and smoking. Kalmia often found her mother laying in their black chair, holding a cigarette in one hand and a bottle covered by a paper bag in the other.
When Kalmia was twelve, she was diagosed with her personality disorders. her mother just blew it off. She shrugged at Kalmias mention of it. Kalmia most likely has these disorders because of her mothers neglect. Seeking out the attention she was deprived of as a child.
Her familys finances are normal for the seam, they can eat, but not much more. She barely has enough fabric or thread to make her own clothes, but its less expensive than buying, so she has to do with her mothers old scraps of clothes, which is usually every few years when her mother abandons an item on the kitchen counter and dosent pick it up for a month or so. Then its fair game.
