Carolina Russell

Carolina was created for a Scratch RP called Papillion Academy. I wanted to randomize her, but unfortunately my school laptop has blocked most randomizers. She's a spitfire and I love her with my whole soul. Since starting to RP with her, it has become quite clear that she doesn't have the personality I thought she did when creating her.

## Appearance

### Simple Appearance

Carolina is a smaller, muscular girl. She has curly brown hair and green eyes.

### Detailed Appearance

Carolina Russell is short, but strong. She prides herself on how consistent she is at working out. One of her most distinctive traits is a small birthmark located on her left cheek near her eye. It stands out against her pale, frequently sunburned skin. The Australian sun is harsh, and Carolina is really bad about remembering her sunscreen. Her hair is quite curly and a warm brown color. She usually clips it in place in the morning and hopes for the best, though she is also known to leave it down and accessorized with a headband or ribbon. Her eyes are a mossy green color, with flecks of brown and gold that catch the sun.

Simplicity is key for Carolina - something that looks good but is low effort is her favorite. One that she's particularly fond of is a white prairie dress with a small red floral pattern with a white bandana headband. Her other favorite is a white blouse with a pair of overalls and a flannel or cardigan over top. For shoes, a pair of cute white Vans or brown army boots are her go-tos. Much of her look is cottagecore inspired.

## Background

### Childhood

Carolina was born in Auckland, New Zealand to Carter and Emily Russell. They were a happy family, though Emily longed for her home. She was originally from Denmark, in fact, but had moved to New Zealand for work. There, she had met Carter when he was on holiday and before long, the two were dating. Carolina was born three years after their marriage, which was six months after their first meeting.

Carolina's brother Samuel Aaron Russell was born eleven months after her. We have questions about this but we do not ask them. Carolina and Sam were two peas in a pod from a very young age and they did absolutely everything together.

When Carolina was three, the family moved to Switzerland. Carter had gotten an opportunity for work and after a long discussion with Emily, they had packed up and moved. Carolina didn't want to leave New Zealand, but she was also three and didn't get a say. rip Carolina.

Unfortunately, the move caused a bit of a rift between Carolina's parents. She didn't really notice, but the house was a little more tense and the Russells has less patient with each other. At least they were doing okay financially 👍.

* Her parents separated when she was eight, but remained friends. Carolina and Sam had a happy, stable home, but since her mother has started dating again, Carolina wishes that they hadn't split up. She doesn't really like her mom's current boyfriend, Liam Barnes.
