I will not fall, I will not fade, I will take your breath away.
APPEARANCE
Hair; Light brunette locks fall to her mid-back, sometimes straight and sometimes in waves
Eyes; Light greyish blue, sort of small and angular
Height; Five feet seven inches
Body Type; Slim, slender, muscular
Dress Sense; Usually jeans and a shirt, occasionally can be seen in skirts or dresses but not often.
General Appearance; Coming from Romanian descent gave Eliza the olive/tan skin tone that she adorns through all seasons. Her eyes range from a grey blue to a very vibrant icey light blue depending on the way the light hits them and her mood. Her hair falls halfway down her back in thick golden brunette locks.
She can generally be seen wearing jeans and a plain old t-shirt but she also enjoys summer dresses and occasionally will dress up. She sports her own style and is sometimes mistaken for one of the popular girls just because she knows how to mix and match and is rarely seen wearing the same outfit twice.
Partially due to genetics and partially due to her strict diet her build is slim and slender but etched with muscles. She is far from a weak little girl though she does appear it. Some see her as beautiful but that is to be expected as Romanian women are known for their beauty, but she does not see herself as so.
PERSONALITY
Likes;[/i][/li][/ul]
- Animals and nature in general
- Children, they are innocent
- Protecting those she cares about
Dislikes;
- Ignorant people that think the world revolves around them
- Not being able to save an innocent life
- Being cooped up indoors for long periods of time
Strengths;
- [Smarts] Always good in school and eager to learn proved to be a big help to Eliza. She is retains information well and picks up on things rather quickly, she absolutely loves to learn and though she doesn't look it she is a brainy girl. She knows Romanian, English, French, German, Spanish and Latin.
- [Training] From the time she was little she was taught to defend herself against anyone that might try to attack her. Fairly skilled in mixed martial arts and is a highly skilled gymnast allowing her fighting style to be rather versatile. Plus being a slayer has added to her strength and abilities.
- [Upbringing] Never once was she pampered or treated as a little princess. The real world doesn't revolve around anyone and that is how she was raised to believe. She was taught that if she ever wanted something she had to earn it fair and square which taught her at a young age the meaning of responsibility, reward and achievement.
Weaknesses;
- [Health] From the time she was four years old she has struggled and lived with Diabetes. As long as it is maintained through her diet and insulin then she is fine but it does cause complications if things go ary.
- [Determination] Eliza is an extremely determined and strong willed woman and will not take no for an answer. If she has a plan and no one else will follow then she will go alone. It doesn't always result in the best results but she will try no matter what.
- [Temper] Easy to get fired up and hard to calm down, Eliza is hard to talk to at times and impossible to be around at others. Her temper flares and makes her at times irrational. It isn't terribly easy to fire up her temper but if it does happen, run.
A Secret; She is a diabetic, but doesn't tell anyone because she views it as a weakness. If she doesn't take her medication like she is supposed to it can result in a coma or death though.
General Personality; Complexity is only one word to describe the person that Eliza has grown into. As a young child she was always caring and devoted and hard working which did not leave her in her growth but she did develop into someone much more. On one side of her she is one of the nicest and sweetest people you will ever meet. Willing to drop everything to help someone out and make sure that the people around her are well taken care of. Completely devoted to those that earn her trust and an unfallable friend until the end. Even though she is only a teenager she is more mature and more levelheaded than many of her same age group.
It is not easy to earn her trust as she is a fairly hesitant of trusting just anyone and does not like to give herself to others. Once she earns a friend and believes in their motives then she will stick by them for as long as they stay true to themselves. She may be an infallible friend but that does not mean that friendship clouds her judgement. If she sees someone going astray she will do her best to right their path and if that fails then she will disengage herself from the realtionship and move on. Years of hardening her personality against anyone that might hurt her has made her into a strong person. The walls that she builds up against people are incredibly hard to tear down and it is not often that she is willing to let someone in to stay. Whether it is a fear of being hurt or a strategy of staying safe depends on your point of view.
On the other hand if Eliza is ever wronged by someone then her wrath can be terrible. If your hurt her then you will probably escape the worst of her attack. But if you hurt someone that she loves then she will not stop until she has exacted revenge on you. If you ever lose her trust then it is impossible to get it back and she will shut you out completely without so much as a second chance. Whereas most people believe that everyone deserves a second chance, Eliza believes that everyone deserves one chance and once they breech that then they deserve nothing. Some see her as too hard and at times even cruel but that is just who she is. She isn't too concerned with whether or not people like her, she is who she is and nothing can change that. Despite her tough exterior she is shy and tends to keep to herself and stay out of trouble. She likes to be a peacemaker but will play the role of judge if she feels she must.

HISTORY
Let us start from the beginning or else we shall lack the full effect of why Elizabeth Rhoslyn Vatican became who she is now.
Born to Evangeline and Sveyen Lindberg a very wealthy couple living in Bucharest, Romania. The one and only child that the couple was ever able to bare and birth, a miracle baby. During this time the country was waging a war against werewolves and vampires of its very own as it had been for years. The battle against the supernatural never truly came to an end in Romania ever but instead would wane in and out from time period to time period. Elizabeth was only two years old when she was taken from her parents and moved to a facility in the center of Bucharest. This center was built specifically to raise and train children to wage war against evil. Every young child male and female was taken at this time to be turned into soldiers. Of course every young female child was watched carefully in the hopes that the chosen one would arise in Romania, but that never happened.
Elizabeth has no memory of the parents she was taken from and her only memories are from the facility she was raised in. The people weren't cruel but they were strict and too hard on such young children. From the time she was five she was taught the vampires and werewolves were bad, that she was good and that her duty to her country was to kill them. It wasn't a hard concept to grab and the children were taught nothing else for the first few years. She was trained from the time she was two until she was thirteen. Trained in academics as well as battle skills, martial arts, gymnastics and anything else they deemed necessary. But before the facility could succeed it was shut down due to violent opposition and a cut in funding. The children were sent back to their homes.
The only problem with this was that Elizabeth's mother and father had been killed when she was ten and so she had no home to go to. Instead she went to an orphanage and lived there for only 6 months before Elaine and Roberto Vatican found her there. They were not a rich family and made their living off the land. Her life was not void of happiness while she was them but she knew that she would and could never be a normal child. Anything that can be considered a childhood was stripped away from her when she was too young to even understand the concept of play. The Vatican's taught her about the land and animals and raised her as their own but she struggled to live a normal life. Finally when she was sixteen she left a note and packed a bag and left.
In her mind it was her duty to serve and protect those that could not protect themselves. She knew it would hurt her adoptive parents but she also knew that the person she was would never be understood by them. She needed to go to where the war was and help fight it to feel like she belonged in the world. You can take the girl out of the training but you can't take the training out of the girl. SAEB or Soldiers Against Evil Beings had succeed despite being shutdown, it had made it impossible for its trainees to live normal lives, impossible to forget. Eliza has a hard time understand how people can know about the danger around them and chose to ignore it. But an even greater tragedy in her eyes was that people were allowed to live in this world completely ignorant to the things around them.
Only a few months ago Eliza realized that she was stronger, faster and healed at an amazing rate. This could only mean on thing, she had been called as a slayer which meant that somewhere one had died. Her dreams and instincts drew her towards Sunnydale, California. So now here she is in the States for the first time in her life to discover her true destiny.
CHARACTER DEVELOPMENT
Well she is a slayer so she will be fighting the good fight with the other scoobies. I imagine she will go to the high school and eventually befriend Dawn since they are quite alike in the shyness department. She will fall in with the scoobies and learn more about her destiny in the process.

[/size]From a different site but my style is usually the same. Hope this works :]
The store was pretty empty, a few people here and there with their adorable little kids. Couples with toddlers, pregnant women with their men and by themselves. It was saddening for someone like Eliza that wanted nothing more in the world than to live her own life and have a family that loved her in return. It was then that she heard two rather young and high pitched voices begging for the attention of someone older, a brother or father maybe? Eliza didn't bother to pay much attention to the matter, she turned slightly at first and saw the back of a rather large boy holding two toddlers or young children, twins probably. Eliza was just about to turn and leave when she heard a voice behind her.
English was her third language so it didn't come that easily to her, she had to really think before she spoke sometimes. She had only been in the United States for a week as it was. In a thick Romanian accent she turned to him and looked up, he was very tall, towering over her five foot seven inch frame. What kind of help do you need? she asked rolling the english words off her tounge like they were difficult to speak. As a young girl she had learned Romanian first and then French because they were similar. Before her mother died she had started learning Latin, German and Russian but after the death her father cancelled her tutors and put her to work in the house.
Eliza hoped she would be able to help this stranger at least a little. He looked like he was at his wits ends trying to control the two children, one of whom wouldn't stop pulling his hair and the other was talking like a motorboat, a million miles a minute about some show. Eliza couldn't help but giggle, she remembered helping raise the children in her household, not all of whom had made it into later life like her and her sister. In total Eliza had one older brother that was deceased, a younger sister that was here in Foxford with her, two younger half brothers that were in Romania still and another younger sister that had died at only three years of age. It was odd letting this stranger see her face though, for the past four years of her life she had worn a mask, that was the law in Romania. Anyone over fourteen and unmarried must wear a mask when in the presence of anyone except her immediate family. Here she was just a normal girl...well trying to be one.
