[/size]Height:5’3
Weight:110 pounds
Hair Color/Style: Deep chestnut brown
Face Claim:Yuuki Cross – Vampire Knight
Brief Overview:
When one first glances at Allora Aduro, you would see a fairly average university student. After all, she’s hardly intimidating with her meagre height of 5’3, and her slight weight gives her an almost fragile appearance. She stands, without the curves most women seem to cherish and while she’s not completely as flat as a surfboard she’s hardly as developed as most young ladies her age.
If you were to ask Allora what her most cherish feature was, she would answer with her long dark hair; thick and strong it either flows freely down to the middle of her back or twisted into a loose braid, Allora simply adores her hair and its really one of the only features of herself she’s actually content with. She’s never really been to confident in her appearance, her In her opinion, her mahogany coloured eyes framed with her fine eyelashes are just a little bit to cat like and lack the large appearance she so wanted, and her cherry lips are just a bit too small.
Allora’s a huge fan of pastel colours and autumn shades, and usually her average outfits are made up of pretty pastel coloured skirts and cute cotton tops, matched with a pair of brogues that match almost anything. She’s not exactly preppy, but then again Allora’s not exactly a down dresser, mostly she dresses for comfort than for labels, but she does try to look cute. She isn’t one to throw away items of clothing she likes or deny them because everyone else likes them. Usually though, her outfits are accompanied by a certain amount of heavy books from her literature course classes which she insists on carrying everywhere. While no tattoo’s or bodily inks stain her body, Allora does have her ears pierced and carries a heart shaped locket around her neck.

[/size]Likes: Chocolate, great literature, sci fi movies, writing, rock and indie music, hanging with friends, generally having fun (whatever the situation), bird watching, long walks, day dreaming.
Dislikes: Arrogance, chauvinistic behaviour, nightmares, when the weathers to hot, really badly written books, not being able to express her opinion, wild west movies, sour flavours, bullies, her appearance and mirrors.
Strengths: She has a great memory and thanks to that she’s great with names and remembering people/songs/information.
She has a very strong will and fights for her views and opinions when its needed.
She’s very maternal and has a certain way with children.
Weaknesses: She’s has a higher than average case of asthma, therefore she can’t run really long distances and always has to carry an inhaler.
She has a terrible sense of direction and even still finds herself getting lost in the University building.
She’s very stubborn.
Overview:
Slightly awkward and a bit of a bumbler when nervous, like most Allora is very curious about the world around her, so you could say she’s quite adventurous! She loves exploring and taking long peaceful walks by herself day dreaming the day away. Coming from humble beginnings she isn’t one for arrogance, nor is she the type of to show off in fact she’s quite helpful with naturally kind nature making Allora friendly enough to those who show her kindness. Though don’t tick her off as her temperament can become quite tempestuous when people push the wrong buttons.
Due to her poor upbringings Allora likes to do a lot of things herself, she hates accepting help and also hates to accept it when she’s wrong, she’s also terrifically stubborn and usually when her heart’s set on something it takes a lot to change or sway her mind. Saying that as well, Allora can be very reckless and tends to make stupid or bad decisions when she doesn’t think things through properly, though don’t let her catch you telling her what to do, you’d probably end up with a sarcastic comment directed your way.
Like most people Allora suffers from bouts of insecurity and sensitivity, she gets upset easily though she doesn’t like to show others when she’s upset, which means she’s most likely to run off for a while then let other people see her cry. She’s a complete sap in general though and cries at lots of things, like sad movies or books or even a really cheesy romantic ending to a novel!
Because of that Allora’s a complete and utter hopeless romantic, she has an extensive collection of romance novels (that she keeps hidden under her bed) and often fantasies a lot of finding her true love. With that in mind, when completely relaxed Allora loves nothing more than to day dream and cloud watch, throwing a side her guarded nonchalance and her passionate attitude. Unfortunately she can also appear quite standoffish, due to her quiet nature Allora can often seem almost rude to those that don’t really know her – though the truth us she’s just a little bit shy. Not terrifically though as one she gets to know people she’s quite adventurous.

[/size]Mother: Zara Aduro (nee, Kuroko)
Father: Ryhei Aduro –deceased -
Siblings: none!
Home town:Traverse Town.
Overview:
Zara Kuroko met Ryhei Aduro when she started work at the local flower shop in Traverse town. Ryhei was a book keeper at the local Bookshop and fell in love with Zara when he first laid eyes on her, though wooing Zara was hardly an easy job but after finally asking her out for the fourteenth time she finally said yes. And after two years of dating Allora was born.
Zara and Ryhei never married, they didn’t feel as though they needed to put a stamp on their relationship and so thus Allora was brought up in wedlock, not that anyone in their working class neighbourhood really cared. Much to the chagrin of her grandmother, a ruthless old woman who tried her hardest to either stop her parent’s relationship, or convince them to marry.
A lot of arguments broke out in the household whenever her grandmother seemed to visit and though Allora was far too young to understand she often wondered why her Granny stopped visiting her or didn’t send her Christmas or birthday presents. Allora soon put that to the back of her mind, she was far too busy enjoying her childhood, she was always a rambunctious child, as wild and fiery as the August month she was born in.
Stubborn as an ox and as strong willed as her mother Allora was a handful during her first years of child hood. Though her mother soon put a stop to that teaching Allora a few lessons the young girl would have rather not learned, but it did teach her manners and how to behave and without them Allora probably would have turned into a little bully.
When she was old enough like all the children in her neighbourhood, Allora joined her local elementary school. At first she hated school and tried her upmost hardest to escape from going with incidents arranging from Allora hiding under her bed, to running away for the morning, it didn’t help either that she didn’t have many friends and because of her slowly developing asthma she couldn’t play as much as the other children.
Though she wasn’t completely withdrawn, and when Allora finally accepted she had to go to school she made two incredibly close friends. Two friends who would stick with her through thick and thin, a friendship which was tested during their fateful fourteenth year, when Allora’s father died. A victim in a hit and run accident, his killer was never found something Allora could never forget.
She wanted justice and as their family fell into poverty (Zara’s wage was just not enough to support the family), Allora became more introverted, instead of hanging out with her friends with her happy go lucky attitude Allora became shier and quieter and concentrated more on her studies. She wanted to make her family proud and while her friends understood Allora couldn’t help but feel guilty for ignoring them.
When graduation finally came, Allora received a scholarship to prestigious Kingdom University, her mother was immensely proud but Allora couldn’t shake the overwhelming fear of attending somewhere so elite. Though she knew she had to go, to honour her father’s memory and to make something of her life.

Roleplay Sample:
Great, somewhere new and different to explore..., she could feel the sarcasm drip off of her tongue even if she hadn’t said the statement aloud. In all honesty she was quite excited to see this new world, but with the last place she visited being so dull she didn’t hold any high expectations for worlds. Dani rolled her eyes and sighed, crossing her arms gently against her chest she took in her surroundings. The place was deserted. The night drenched town seemed peaceful enough, but the silence was almost deafening. It lacked any sort of the usual hustle bustle she associated with Town Esque worlds; it was indeed almost too quiet.
I guess this place is pretty safe... was that to naive a thought? She pondered it for a moment before she shook her head. Maybe it was a stupid thought, with those strange creatures appearing so rapidly everywhere nowhere seemed safe. Her world hadn’t been, and if her city hadn’t survived an attack by those creatures nowhere could. It just didn’t seem possible.
Great, where the heck am I...
She’d been so lost in her own thought she hadn’t even realised she’d where she’d wandered. She felt the heat rise to her cheeks, how embarrassing; if her Grandpa could see her now...
She’d always had a terrible sense of direction, it didn’t matter which direction she’d go in her home world, she always seemed to end up lost...
"Ahhh, this is just way too confusing to just push on me all of a sudden. The hell was she thinking?"
Dani’s eyes shot from the distant direction in which they’d fixed themselves as her ears pricked at the voice. A boy, but did he live here? She could only hope so. But then, that would mean having to ask for help... she fought and lost an inner battle.
I guess it can’t hurt my pride for once...
“Hey!” she called over “hey – you, do you know what world this is?” she asked staring up at the taller person. He seemed approachable enough... She could only hope he knew where the hell she was.
