Strengths: She is a master manipulator, ambitious, and intuitive. Weaknesses: Selfish, ruthless, unforgiving, and incredibly vain and judgmental. Detailed personality: Raised the first born and heir of a wealthy and powerful business man, Rosana thinks herself above almost anyone else. She is entitled and proud, knowing exactly what she wants and going for it with tenacity, uncaring of who or what might stand in her way. To her, other people are merely pawns for her own amusement and disposal. However, there are those pawns - sorry, people - that she has grown fond of and likes to keep around, almost considering them like pets. To these special individuals she is - almost kind. She is almost like a pit bull, once she truly has her mind set to something it's practically impossible to deter her. She will quickly figure out how an individual person operates and then manipulate them to suit her purposes, disregarding their own wants and needs. It is for this reason that she is the last person you want as your enemy. It is possible that underneath it all, she is actually quite sensitive and emotional, but she has smothered and buried this part of her so long and so deep that it's impossible for even her to tell. Personal History: Born the oldest child of Vasco Luis Cordozo Rios and Maiara Araci Salazar Belo, two years before her sister, Rosana has lived a rather charmed life. Though her father had hoped for a son to carry on his family name and legacy, his daughter never disappointed him, and he quickly warmed to the idea of her being his heir. She never wanted for anything, and was always doted upon by her father, whom she adored in return. However, at a very young age, she learned of her father's affairs and quickly formed new opinions about the man. She still does love (in her way) and respect him, but she hates him at the same time, though not as much as she hates her mother, whom she sees as weak for not doing anything about it. The one person in her life whom she has always loved and respected is her maternal grandmother. Araci is a strong, independent woman, the matriarch of her family, and she doesn't allow anyone to treat her with disrespect. She would often spend time with Araci as a child, taking an interest in Quimbanda and learning the different rituals and customs, though her grandmother is a practitioner of both Quimbanda and Umbanda, hoping to bridge the gap between the two religions and resurrect Macumba as a firm religion again. In her eyes, she and her sister could not be more different, with Noemi taking after their mother predominantly. Though the birth of her sister took away no attention or luxury from her, Rosana still hates her and often wondered why it was necessary to have another child at all. She took great pains to keep her sister away from her and uninvolved in family affairs, which was actually quite easy since it was mostly her that their father took around to introduce to people while Noemi and Maiara stayed behind or off to the side. Still, as she grew older she could tolerate being around her family less and less, and so she came up with a solution and transferred to Dresden Academy - as far away from her family as she could manage. In her sophomore year she tested for which classes she was to take and sorted into the house of Clemons. Other Stuff: I would DEFINITELY love for her sister to be picked up, transferring in next semester or what not. She's between a year or two younger than Rosana, a sophomore in whatever house you think suits. | ||||||||
