"Books might be my best friend." - Annaliese

## Character

### Personality

Annaliese was a demigod who had always preferred the quiet of the library to the noise and chaos of Ever After High. Unlike many of her fellow campers, she was bookish, shy, and introspective. Her love of books had started early on in her life, when her mother, Benthesikyme, had introduced her to the world of literature. Growing up, Annaliese had often felt like an outsider. Her reserved nature and quiet demeanor had made it difficult for her to make friends, especially at Ever After High, where the children of gods and goddesses often boasted of their heroic exploits and powerful abilities. But despite her shyness, Annaliese was a gifted storyteller. Her vivid imagination and love of literature had given her a talent for weaving enchanting tales that captivated her audience. Annaliese's appearance was strikingly similar to that of Erica Proper. Both girls had the same petite frame and delicate features, but Annaliese's hair was a soft shade of blonde, while Erica's was a deep brown. Despite their similarities, the two girls couldn't have been more different. Erica was outgoing, confident, and charismatic, while Annaliese was reserved, introspective, and somewhat timid. Annaliese's quiet nature belied a fierce intelligence and an insatiable curiosity. She was always eager to learn, and spent countless hours buried in books, absorbing knowledge about the world around her. Her curiosity often led her down unexpected paths, and she found herself fascinated by subjects that others might find mundane or uninteresting.

### Appearance

Annaliese was a sight to behold as she strolled through the grounds of Ever After High. Her flowing blonde hair cascaded down her back in soft waves, framing her delicate features and highlighting her bright blue eyes. She wore a stunning pink coral dress that hugged her curves in all the right places, the flowing skirt swaying around her legs as she walked. The bodice was delicately adorned with sparkling gems that shimmered in the sunlight, drawing attention to her slender neck and elegant collarbone. Underneath her dress, Annaliese donned a peach coral swimsuit that complemented that added an extra layer of comfort and flexibility for the day's activities. Her outfit was completed by a pair of white sandals. In one hand, Annaliese carried a well-worn book, its pages yellowed with age from countless readings. She often lost herself in its pages, finding solace and escape from the challenges of demigod life. Her book was a constant companion, providing her with the knowledge and inspiration she needed to face the trials ahead. The other campers had given her the nickname "Princess Mayfield," and for good reason. Annaliese exuded an air of sophistication and grace that seemed almost otherworldly, and her presence commanded attention wherever she went.
