Violetta Grimauld
Name: Violetta Grimauld
Nicknames: Letti
Main Base: The Sky
Role: Citizen
Appearance: Tall for her age and as her grandmother puts it, "decidedly skinny", Letti is a young woman who has yet to reach full maturity. At seventeen she's able to look average men in the eye and despite her ravenous hunger, remains rather scrawny. She has a thin, angular face with wide and curious hazel eyes. Her brown hair is cut short and angular, currently styled with fringed bangs. Natural highlights are inadvertently accentuated by the copper and brass ornamentation she often wears.
Character Pitch
As a mercantile heiress Violetta Grimauld has, since she was old enough to talk, been instructed to receive her birthright: a seat on the Council. While her life as a whole is rather unmarked, there were a few tragedies that defined how she was raised. A complication in delivery resulted in the death of her mother and when she was four, her father mysteriously died while visiting the Grimauld Repository. Though these events cannot be dismissed, they do not weigh too heavily on her heart as she was young and her grandmother was there to raise her. Strict and obsessed with the Grimauld fortune, the woman rarely let anything come before her love of Letti.
Violetta is a peculiarly gentle person, in heart and soul and despite the teachings of her grandmother, retains a tenderness so pure it borders child-like naivety. She's memorized the facts, quoted the data, and aided in plenty of unsavory dealings, and yet she still believes in justice and compassion for all. Unfortunately, located in the Sky and sheltered from the harsh realities of life, these ideals can cause her to seem starry-eyed or foolish, despite it being far from the truth.
Never having visited the Land oft enforces the previous statement, but it is something of a controversial topic within the Grimauld Estate. Luella Grimuald, her grandmother, is a fierce woman, in appearance and demeanor and her word has always been law. She runs the Grimauld fortune with an iron fist and having been on the Council since her son's death, is hesitant to relinquish the position to her idealistic granddaughter, especially as she's a few years too young to marry.
Though she willingly shoulders the duty to her family's name, Letti is still young and inexperienced. She's never gone against her grandmother's will outside of small, trivial matters, like repairing and tinkering out-of-date automatons that seem to accumulate within the Estate's lower quarters or spend hours combing through the Grimauld Boutique for whimsical trinkets, but there are times where she just can't shake fantasizing about one day visiting the Land and all the tantalizing mysteries it holds.

Lemme know if the Grimauld Repository and Boutique are stretching things! I'm more than willing to make edits.
I welcome any character relations, especially those located in The Sky! I would like to document those relationships, and after some plottin' with fellow members, plop the info in this doc.
