*"I don't need a fucking job. I'm a fucking princess."*

―Annette in the group chat

Annette, is a princess of vampires and a student at Starlet's Boarding School. She is the main protagonist in insert name here two.

Despite what a lot of people think, she actually does want to become a better person.

## Appearance

Annette is a small, slender vampire hybrid, barely reaching 5 feet. She has straight short pastel purple hair with one strand of black on the right side, her hair hanging down. Her face is round and she has red rosy cheeks, much like a child. She wears a white crop top with the shoulder part cut out, and a plaid black and white miny skirt, with black boots that exceed past her knees.

When she summons her wings, they are bat-like and small.

## Personality

She is very self-centered and self-absorbed, usually resulting in the suffering of others. Despite this, she does not actually like to see others in pain, and does everything in her power to stop it. She's a bit of a pessimistic downer, who doesn't really like to see the bright side of situations, mostly out of never experiencing them.

She however can be very childish, not understanding why she has to do certain things or why her actions have consequences. She is very brash, haughty, and demeaning of those around her, which leads to Aster being uncomfortable around her. She is very socially intelligent and charismatic.

She often deflects criticism by either joking or just downright ignoring the person. She often side-steps responsibilities, due to the fear of not being able to uphold her end, or she just doesn't want to do it. She is very easily triggered, and her moods can shift quite frequently and a lot, which causes those around her to be uncertain and uneasy.

Most of this can appear cruel, but in reality, Annette is just very defensive of herself, and puts her happiness and needs before others, because she believes no one has done so for her. She is scared that if she shows her true self, people will mock and hurt her, as what happened in the past.

She does try to reach out to some of her friends, including Malaki, but almost always plays it off as in act in the moment, or a joke. She does hope that someone pays enough attention to see when something's wrong, and she's willing to be vulnerable when they do.

She usually doesn't let people get too close to her and holds them at a distance, due to the past abusive relationship she had with her caretaker Sarah, and is extremely traumatized by it.

## Concept and Creation

Besides a few minor things, Annette hasn't really changed since I made her. She was originally designed to just be the protagonist that readers go back and forth with due to her antagonistic behaviors. However, I have taken an interest in her character and started to play with it. She was not originally going to have an eating disorder or care much about her appearance, but it only made since that she did, so now she does.

I always knew I wanted her to have some form of trauma, but wasn't sure what would cause it. Eventually, an idea struck me and it became clearer and clearer, until it was a smooth, flexible form.

## Trivia

* Annette cares very deeply about her pictures
	+ She only would use social media for this purpose, to take pictures and videos. She would not care or put very much effort into making herself look good through her social media platform. Ironically, she thinks it's stupid that people spend so much time glorifying their lives online and thinks it's easier and makes more sense to do so in person.

* The name Annette is from a French origin and means "gracious and merciful."
* She, much like riding a bike, does not know how to do most things taught in childhood
	+ This is most likely due to the fact that Sarah never taught her, but also has to due with how she never asked anyone to teach her, and pretended she already knew how

* She struggles with multiple addictions, such as drugs, alcohol, chaos, and violence,
	+ Despite this, she doesn't seem to want to go anywhere near her prescription drugs, which she could easily get high off.

* While she does flirt with various individuals, she shows a reaction very similar to freaking out when someone seems to show an actual interest in her.
	+ She doesn't believe that a relationship built on mutual trust and respect exists, or she does not believe she is deserving to be in a relationship like that.
	+ She is very guarded and protective of her feelings, afraid that no one is going to treat her correctly, so she does not believe that someone actual wants a relationship with her other than to sleep with her or abuse her.
	+ Despite this, she does seem to want to start a relationship with Malaki and seems to trust him enough

* Even though she does not go out in clothing other than her usual skirt and top, she does like to wear over-sized, comfortable clothing, much like she wore to her movie date with Malaki.
	+ She never leaves her room with these clothes on, which is why Malaki had no idea she owned clothes like that
	+ Caspey is aware she prefers these clothes and tries to get her to wear them outside or at least around the castle.

* Annette very much enjoys performing
* Annette has Narcissistic Personality Disorder, Borderline Personality Disorder, and anorexia
	+ Caspey states that she doesn't know if Annette "really has NPD", and it is more probable that Annette just has HPD and was misdiagnosed as having both BPD and NPD
* Annette has a soft spot for kids, and would be a "friendly but irresponsible" person when it came to children
	+ For example, she wouldn't behave how she usually does around them, but she may take them to places she frequents, like clubs
	+ Her and Orchard are very different in this sense, seeing as Orchard does not view herself as a kid friendly person, and Annette would actually rather spend time with kids than people her age
		- Annette would rather be around children because she doesn't think they are judgmental and cruel, like most people her age are. She also thinks that "you can just do whatever around children, and they don't really say anything or care"
* Annette is an Aries, which makes a lot of sense, based on her behaviors and hot-headed-ness
	+ Annette was born on March 26th
* According to myself, Annette would like to be the top in the bedroom
* Malaki and Annette do become a canon couple
	+ Annette would be the top in their relationship
	+ Malaki and Annette's relationship would not change very much from them being friends, other than a few kisses here and there
	+ Annette's feet get cold, and when this happens, Malaki wraps them up in a blanket to warm them up
* Annette likes to wear grey winter boots with little balls on them that only reach her ankles
* Her starstagram username is artsy\_fluffy\_bootz, and her bio is "dont do drug unless you want to"

## Main Cast

### Malaki

*"Do you need me?"*

―Malaki to Annette when she was visiting Orchard's grave.

Malaki and Annette share a somewhat co-dependent relationship. She relies on him to fill the hole that she is, despite this being dangerous and self destructive. He almost always helps her in whatever way he can, but he can get upset with her and ignore her cries for help, which is what happened in their fight.

He does care for her well-being, and gets angry at her when she endangers herself. He is capable of telling her to cut her crap, though he rarely does so. He can see through her mask and facade, and can tell she is very unhappy with her life. Although most of the time he doesn't say anything about this, he does get worried and will speak up if he thinks that him staying silent will harm her.

He does have a romantic interest in her, and on several occasions caught blushing around her, or getting flustered when she flirts. She however seems to find this cruel, mean, and demeaning, because she believes herself unlovable, and thinks Malaki doesn't actually like her. But, she does seem to trust his feelings enough that she thinks they might be genuine, seeing as she starts a relationship with him.

### Aster

*"Hey, so I actually kinda enjoyed hanging out with you. Wanna hang out another time?"*

―Annette to Aster after their performance together.

Aster and Annette seem to have a very passive-aggressive frenemy relationship. Annette usually makes cruel, undermining remarks to Aster, much to the latters dismay. Aster does, however, care about Annette and does not want to bring harm to her, seeing as she was hesitant to fulfill her duty and kill her. Annette is not afraid to deflect Aster's criticism to her poor choices by bringing up Aster's own bad choices.

Annette does feel bad afterwards, though. She is seen almost apologizing to Aster multiple times, before she just takes it back. Aster however takes this very seriously and easily forgives Annette.

The two are very uneasy around each other for a long time, though eventually, they do grow closer and end up spending more time together. Before this, Aster was still very defensive of Annette, which she just played off as friendship. Annette does not view Aster as a close friend, and more views her as a close acquaintance. Aster though, views Annette as one of her closest friends.

### Nataly

*"I'm sorry it's just... Annette and chill in the same sentence doesn't really make sense."*

―Nataly to Oliver

The two do not interact very much, but it is clear that Nataly isn't overly fond of Annette. This more has to do with Annette's haughty behavior, her like to insult and condescend Aster, and her attention-seeking behaviors, more than Annette herself. Nataly views Annette to be a "very sad, broken girl." She would describe Annette as "bad but sad" to show that she thinks her behaviors are inexcusable, but she understands why she does what she does.

She still is very protective of Annette, because she knows what it's like to have a breakdown and live in constant fear. When Annette is not displaying her usual behaviors, Nataly actually gets along with her very well. Annette views Nataly to be somewhat a big sister to her, seeing as she isn't very fond of her actual big sister.

Annette does however get overly defensive every time Nataly shows that she knows Annette is unhappy with her life, and almost everything she does is fake, which often results in Annette becoming brash and dismissive of Nataly trying to help her.

### Nathaniel

*"Well, me and Nate started this tradition where we stay up all night the day before school because vampires rock."*

―Annette reasoning why Nathaniel is out so late to Nataly

The two of them share a very positive relationship, acting like children and doing childish things together. Annette and Nathaniel like to do a lot of vampire stuff together, because Nataly refuses to be a part of their childish shenanigans. They do do things labelled as "girlish" together, such as painting each other's nails and playing dress up.

They do however, trust each other enough to go to each other for advice. Annette can be seen going to Nathaniel multiple times to see what she should do about her failing relationships, and he counsels her.

He does not, however, like, approve, or tolerate Annette making condescending remarks about Aster. Nathaniel is not above teasing Aster, but finds Annette's jokes cruel and belittling. He however does not say anything to Annette, just stays silent.

They would consider each other to be best "vampire" friends, because they both have other best friends. They share the same interests, and same views on a lot of topics. They do love each other, and would do absolutely anything to make sure the other was okay.

### Damion

*"And I'm so proud of you"*

―Annette to Damion

Damion is one of the very few people who Annette lets see her true self. Damion and Annette are often seeing supporting each other, and seem to share a very close relationship. They care deeply about each other, to the point where Annette offered him a place in the castle. Damion is closer with Annette than he is most of the group, seeing as Annette was the only other one besides Nathaniel that knew about Molly.

Annette views Damion as someone who is equal to her, and he is one of the only characters she does not constantly compare herself to. She thinks he has great taste, because of his past crush on Malaki. Despite this, she never viewed Damion as a threat or in any negative way as she has for so many of the other characters.

Damion would be what Annette would call her "comfort person". She believes that he is someone she can go to without fear of judgement. In some ways, she is closer to Damion than even Malaki, because she has never viewed him in a negative light. She is very protective of him, and would not hesitate to stand up for him. She would describe him as "the one person she doesn't have any negative memories with, or anything negative associated with." Much like places Annette only has positive memories with, Damion is a person she only has positive memories with.

## Major Side Characters

### Orchard

*"I don't hate you."*

―Orchard to Annette after coming back.

The two of them started off very rocky, Annette almost completely hating Orchard, blaming her for Malaki's lack of attention on Annette. Annette is seen on multiple occasions insulting, belittling, condescending, demeaning, and even outright harming Orchard. Annette is very inwardly jealous of Orchard and Malaki's relationship, which is why she treats Orchard the way she does. She does not regret treating Orchard the way she does, until she realizes that Orchard never blamed or hated her.

Orchard doesn't stand up to Annette's cruel insults and acts, except for when it's very serious, which Annette will just turn the situation around and Orchard will end up the one in the wrong.

Orchard actually feels bad for Annette, which is why she just lets her say and do whatever she wants. However, after Orchard dies and comes back, their relationship significantly improves, with Orchard going out of her way to protect Annette. The two can be seen doing a lot of things together, and Orchard actually convinces Annette that she can be happy at the same time as other people, not it just being one or the other. Annette starts to treat people better after that, and starts to show more of her true colors.

### Oliver

The two are yet to interact, but Oliver does state that he views Annette as competitive and intense, telling Nataly that she'd be "pretty chill" if she was less so that way.

### Noah

The two are yet to interact, but they seem to have a mutual respect for each other, because they are both so close to Damion

## Royal Family

### Saphir

*"Love, she's dead, you can't fix that."*

―Saphir to Annette after she attends the funeral.

Annette and her mother seem to share a very rocky, unstable relationship that consistences of manipulation on Annette's part. Annette will usually manipulate her mother by saying she's acting like Sarah, mostly to either side-step responsibilities, or to avoid discipline. Her mother fears this actually being true, and will stop doing whatever she was doing in the moment to Annette.

Though Annette manipulates and takes advantage of her mother, she does love and care for her, and sees her as the only person in her family that actually loves her back.

### Fantasy

*"You know that doesn't work on me."*

―Fantasy to Annette after she says he's acting like Sarah.

Annette and her father share a very unstable relationship, due to Annette being cold and distant. Annette doesn't like the fact that her father isn't as easily manipulated as her mother, and will often avoid and blame him for things that happen to her. He is the one who disciplines her, because her mother does not. Annette will get very angry and malicious when her father tries to punish her for something she did wrong, going as far to scream at him.

He does still love her, despite what Annette thinks. Her father on numerous occasions tries to bond and connect with her, which Annette will entertain, until he does something she deems cruel. Despite her manipulation tactics not working on him, he can tell when she is actually triggered and will stop and approach her in a different way.

Annette is very dismissive of him as a person, and does not care much about his opinions. He does try his best to take care of her, and was enraged when he discovered what Sarah was doing to her.

After she fights and argues with Orchard's adopted parents about Orchard, she does come to the realization that her dad does in fact love her, and she apologizes to him about how she's acted.

### Caspey

*"It was horrible, and you need to get that."*

―Caspey to Annette.

Annette and Caspey share a very bitter relationship, which is often rocky and unstable. Caspey wants Annette to see that her actions have consequences, and what she does hurts people, while Annette wants Caspey to be the big sister she was when she was younger. Despite the two of them often arguing and having screaming matches, they do trust each other. Annette goes to Caspey for advice when she needs it desperately, and Caspey trusted her enough to come out to her.

However, even though Caspey trusted Annette, she seems to think it was a mistake, due to the fact Annette broke her trust. However, despite all of this, Annette is still deeply attached to Caspey, and gets hysterical when she tries to leave, going so far as threatening suicide if Caspey were to leave. Caspey though, does not believe Annette will actually follow through with these threats, and thinks that if she actually did, it would not be her fault.

Charlie often has to be the peacemaker between the two of them. However, Caspey states that she "probably loves Annette more than anyone in the world", and tells her that she still loves and cares about her, she just wants her to own up to her actions. Annette shows gratitude when Caspey starts to act like how "normal" sisters act, and Annette admits that she looks up to Caspey, not only as a rolemodel, but just as a person, and Caspey tells her that she's an amazing person on her own, and she doesn't need to copy anyone to try to be perfect, because she was perfect just the way she was. Caspey also told Annette that she was honored to be the person Annette looked up to, because of her self-absorbed behaviors, it's rare that Annette looks up to someone who she can strive to be like.

### Sophistry

The two are yet to directly interact one on one, but they share a positive relationship with one another

## Castle Inhabitants

### Charlie

*"Caspey might not tell you this, but you're a good little sister, Annette."*

―Charlie to Annette on the commitment ceremony day

Their relationship is based around Charlie's pity for Annette, and Annette's annoyance with Charlie's lack of self-respect. Charlie views Annette as a sad, troubled young child, while Annette views Charlie as "a fucking loser with no self-respect." Annette believes that if Charlie respected herself, she'd drop Mauve because she believes the latter mistreats Charlie and abuses her kind nature. Charlie will later tell Annette that she "hasn't talked to Mauve in ten years", and Caspey explains what happened between the two of them. Annette's unfiltered thoughts of Charlie are very negative, because she surprisingly also thinks that if Charlie had self-respect, she'd breakup with her sister.

Though Annette never says this out-loud, she does very much think it, because Annette believes that Charlie follows around Caspey like a "love-sick puppy" and thinks Caspey treats her like a puppet. Annette is in a way very protective of Charlie, because she fears her being abused by someone she loves and holds dear to her heart. Despite what Annette thinks, Charlie does not view her and Caspey's relationship like that, In fact, Charlie does not understand why the two sisters are constantly fighting and avoiding each other.

Annette's negative view of Charlie and Caspey's relationship is vaguely mentioned by Malaki. Annette though, seems to feel remorse for assuming their relationship was abusive, and apologizes to Caspey for outing them, then suggests the idea of marriage, and when both Caspey and Charlie shoot it down, she suggests they have a commitment ceremony, and they do. Annette feels bad for assuming that Charlie can't make her own choices and can't cut off toxic people, and Charlie tells her "it's not her fault, and she doesn't blame her for wanting to defend the people she cares about." Charlie later tells Annette that that's what Caspey admires about her, and Annette starts to see their relationship very differently.

### Mauve

The two do not interact, but it is very clear that they hold a strong dislike towards each other. Annette dislikes Mauve because she thinks she takes advantage of Charlie and Caspey, and Mauve dislikes Annette because she thinks Annette is a bad person.

### Jinx

*"You don't have to pretend to be here when it's messy. Everyone's always only here for the good times."*

―Annette to Jinx

Upon first meeting Jinx, Annette was so starstruck to the point Jinx believed that she didn't get out much. Annette adores Jinx very much, and was very happy when she started showing interest in Annette. The two share a very positive relationship, Jinx serves to be a role model for Annette, and Annette is very eager to have an "irresponsible" female remodel.

Annette sees Jinx as an older sister, and Jinx views her as a little sister. Jinx has been shown comforting Annette in her time of need, which shows that she genuinely cares and wants Annette to be okay, something she appreciates.

## Hotel Staff

### Sam

*"Yeah. I'm proud of myself too. But everything I said is true. I do owe you guys everything."*

―Annette to Sam after the interview.

Upon first meeting Sam, Annette was very sarcastic and smug, making fun of both Azure and Sam and their idea when asked to be their sponsor. Sam almost seems to know that Annette is struggling somewhat with her life, hence her comment. Annette is put off by this, but starts laughing when Azure reveals the truth on why they asked her. After Annette seemed to make Azure mad enough, she tells Sam Annette isn't a good option. Annette freaks out at this, because she'd just gotten kicked out of her own house with no where to stay.

She agrees to sponsor them, and Sam can barely contain her excitement. She then proceeds to hand Annette money, which Annette thinks is trick money, and is hesitant to take it and trust her good intentions. Sam proceeds to tell Annette that there's more to her, and when Annette gets out of the car, she's in a somewhat foggy mood.

Four days later, Annette causes some trouble in the city when Sam had her big interview. This causes problems for the hotel, and Azure scolds and grills Annette, the two arguing back and forth, Annette not really taking it seriously. Sam tries to say something to Annette, but Azure shouts about how what Sam said was no where near close enough to describe how Annette was being.

After the arrival of Alexander, Krissy, and Max, things seem to calm down a bit. Sam treats Annette with such tenderness and kindness that Annette starts to actually wonder if she's waken up from her coma, because she thinks that the way Sam is treating her is a "too good to be true" situation. Sam tells Annette that she isn't just a fragile thing, and she's strong. Annette is very hesitant to leave the hotel out of a fear of loosing the way Sam and the others treated her.

### Azure

*"Jealous? Of you?"*

―Azure to Annette

The two share a very complicated "frenemy" relationship, as Annette does with a lot of people. Before her arrival at the hotel, Azure and Annette were just barley antiquated, Azure just being someone who worked with Nataly to Annette. When the car pulls up with Sam and Azure, Annette almost immediately starts making fun of Azure, enjoying making her angry, which she finds easy to do so.

When they're in the limo, Azure starts scolding and shouting at Annette for her "little bitch act". Annette doesn't take their conversation or Azure seriously, which Azure gets even madder at. The two shoot insults and rude comments back and forth at each other, Annette being more annoyed than angry, and Azure seeing red. By the time they get to the hotel, Azure seems to have calmed down enough, seeing as Annette asked her about Alexander and she explained it to her.

The two still "play fight", not actually being mad at each other, but not being friendly either. Azure dislikes Annette's constantly saying Sam is her girlfriend. Azure doesn't dislike Annette, she just thinks Annette "lives life too out loud" and is annoyed at her constant chatter and sarcasm. She does care about Annette to a certain extent, and was grateful when she made up for the interview.

### Alexander

*"Hey, Al, can you teach me more of that crap? You know, being in control of your emotions?"*

―Annette to Alexander

The two have a very positive relationship with one another, Annette immediately being enchanted by his arrival at the hotel. The two share a very similar view of the world, and because of this, get along fantastically. Annette views Alexander as a sort of parental figure, and is happy to learn whatever she can from him. She adores his complete control over his emotions, and wants to be like that someday.

He might joke around and view her as his "obnoxiously loud and outgoing adopted daughter." Despite what he may say, he does enjoy spending time with Annette and taking her under his wing, as he's done with Krissy and Max.

### Max

*"Hey, so the whole 'go f\*\*\* yourself' thing happened, but can we just move past that? What kind of nymph are you?"*

―Annette to Max after coming back in the hotel

Upon first meeting, Max seems to disregard Annette's attempts of friendship, being blunt and annoyed. After a bit more time together, the two warm up to each other and start to enjoy each other's company. Annette enjoys Max's company, and would consider her one of her close friends, because she is able to get along with him better than most people.

Max often goes to Annette when he's trying to do something for Orchard, and she'll help him to the best of her ability. The two of them often hang out, due to both of them being people Alexander has taken under his wing.

### Krissy

Tba, due to them not directly interacting yet. When editing, I plan to explore their relationship and have them grow close, since they are very similar and enjoy similar things.

## Others

### Sarah

*"Hmm...* Nah*. Go stick your s\*\*\* approval in someone else's face."*

―Annette to Sarah after spotting Malaki

Their relationship is very abusive, Sarah taking away most of Annette's innocence and childhood, and Annette is extremely traumatized because of it. Upon facing her again, Annette is almost hysterical in her anger.

Annette though, does seem to get her emotions under control, thanks to Alexander. She becomes completely apathetic at Sarah's murder attempts, and hardly even reacts when Orchard pulls a Exorcists spear on Sarah.

### David

The two were a fling, until David's attempt of murder. Instead of Malaki dealing with him, Annette asked if she could get her revenge first, which is when she preformed on the stage with Aster.

### Monaco

The relationship is incredibly abusive, him only using Annette for her body. But the relationship quickly ends as he gets locked in prison for exploitation of minors, and is no longer mentioned.

### Desire

*"However, I did* not *tell you to help Annette. Sarah is not going to give up so easily."*

―Desire to Malaki about Annette

Desire and Annette don't have much of a relationship outside of favors and Aster. Desire finds Annette to be somewhat annoying and obnoxious, always in everyone's faces. Desire, does however help Annette when she asks for it, such as giving her chaos magic as a means of defense.

### Unnamed Antagonist

Aster's boss is yet unnamed, but Annette and him are going to have a very bad and powerful dynamic.

### Ursula

The two do not interact, but it is clear they hold a very strong dislike towards each other, Ursula thinking Annette is a bad influence on her son, and Annette mad Ursula mistreats him.

### Audrey

*"And since I run the school website, I was wondering if I could destroy his reputation."*

―Audrey to Annette

Annette and Audrey are close acquaintances, who get along fairly well due to their shared love for chaos and similar likes and dislikes.

### Twix

*"I thought you weren't coming today. Why do you l like s\*\*\*?"*

―Twix to Annette

At first their relationship being based off of blackmail, Twix knowing that Annette loves Malaki. But as time goes on, Twix reveals that he genuinely cares about Annette and wants her to be happy. Almost too desperate, Annette clings to him and tells him she'll wait for him to come back from his retreat. She almost immediately forgets this promise and moves on, Twix not taking up space in her mind.

### Mcnuggets

Mcnuggets is Annette's dog and best friend. She loves to spend time with him and take care of him. He seems to be the only thing she doesn't mind taking care of without wanting anything in return.
