1) **Describe your character's backstory. Who are their parents? Did they grow up with Nobility, or were they of lower class? The character's backstory must be at least 2 paragraphs long.**

Athena was born into an immensely respected family. In her eyes, everything was perfect. In the public's eyes, everything was perfect. Everyone at Foxfire adored her, she never had to face any of the Elvin consequences, and she never got bad grades; what more could she hope for?

For quite some time, that was how she thought. But after such a long time with the same life it got... boring. She longed for fun, something she could say that gave her a thrill. While she still has not found that thing, she began to grow into the idea of a boring life. That bored feeling began to turn into a normal emotion.

She finished up to level four with flying colours, but was doubtful she would be able to continue at Foxfire. She had manifested quite late, with the end of Level Four approaching. Her drive proved to be enough, because right before finals came along, she manifested as a vanisher. This caused relief throughout her family, but not for the reasons one would expect. While they were happy that their heir would move onto the Elite Levels, their biggest relief came from the fact that they would still be considered a high-class family.

Athena's parents did not tell her this, but they didn't have to. The idea of her parents caring more about their reputation more than her left an unsettling feeling in her stomach. From that point on, she felt that she needed to prove that she could be better than anything that they hoped. Her thoughts were that if she became better, they would care more about her rather than their reputation. From then on, her grades only got better. The only mark she would ever see for herself was 100%.

After graduating Foxfire, she never found out what her parents' thought of her anymore. However, she was determined to continue doing well. That is why she became a Intelligent Species Advocate. Her job was to live with a stuggling species and study their life style. She would take back her research to the Elvin Council, along with ideas to assist the species.

She spent hundreds of years doing this, and it only strengthened her bond with other species. The relationship between them and Elves grew stronger, and they cared deeply about Athena in particular. She had the adventure she sought for in her younger years, and she felt whole. This journey inspired The Council to make her one of the two magnates of Foxfire. While she did not want to leaver her current job, she wanted to help change the school that most of her childhood was spent in for the better. She accepted the position, and is now starting her first year running the academy.

2) **What is your character's personality like? Are they respectable, or rude? The character's personality must be a paragraph long.**

Growing in a prestigious family made Athena a very well mannered child. She was socially intelligent from a very young age. Her winning smiles and charming persona is what made the other intelligent species trust her in the end. She is very kind hearted, but also very quick witted. She knows right away when someone is using her for their advantage. She couldn't care less about social statuses, but strives to maintain her's because she know others *do* care.

Adventure is always a goal she has in mind. However, some can find this quite tiring because she is always trying to make others join her expeditions. In the end, it was her experience and her undying passion to make relationships better that the council made her a magnate.
