Mazie Alice VanDeGraff

MAZIE ALICE VANDEGRAFF

**Appearance**

Mazie is of small stature and build, small even for a girl. Given that, she is thirteen years old, but looks younger. Mazie has a cute round face, with a slightly pointed chin, and pouty cheeks. She has light pink hair with light gray and white highlights, down to her 'wing bones', and frequently wears her hair in twin tails. She has long, erotic eyelashes, and high eye brows and a high forehead, also giving her a youthful facial appearance. Mazie's has huge 'anime girl' eyes that are of a dark pinkish lavender color. She has a small neck, small shoulders, and small hands. She as a clear skin tone, with a slightly pink cast that is even all over. Most of the time she looks like she is faintly blushing. Mazie's body looks frail, but she actually is in good health, nonetheless. She has not yet developed a bust, and hence gives the appearance of a practically flat chest. Therefore, she wears a training bra. Despite her shortness, she has seemingly long legs, but small feet.

Because Mazie is from a relative poor family, she wears a variety of clothing styles and fashions. Just whatever is found at the thrift stores, or given to her as hand-me-downs. She will wear little girl clothes if they will fit her. She prefers to wear shirts and mini-skirts, or short hemline jumper dresses, if she can obtain them for next to nothing. Mazie always has on clean clothes, but sometimes they look worn or greatly used. Mazie does not mind, as she is thankful to have her own wardrobe anyway. Given Mazie's plain clothes style, it was so shocking when she came to the chess competition wearing expensive, high class, designer clothes. But that choice of clothes for her accomplished the purpose to distract Leonard enough, as well as other factors, to throw the game in her favor.

**Personality and Circumstances**

Just like Mazie's intimate friend Sherry did not have her personality spoiled by riches, Mazie did not have her personality spoiled from recurring poverty. Mazie actually developed a kind and generous personality trait, such that she would give away to others what little she had, if need be. Mazie and Sherry met each other early on in their childhood, and have become fast and intimate friends ever since. Both girls are attracted only to other girls, so that a strong yuri style friendship bond was formed between them. Mazie has outstanding loyalty to her friends and family. She many times puts their interest above her own, when she seemingly has nothing to give, or nothing to gain by doing so. Mazie is actually quite intelligent, and does well in school, although she gives the impression (wrongly) of being sort of a 'bimbo' and an airhead. She can be impulsive at times, but not to the extent that she 'goes off the rails' socially with risky behavior.

Mazie has good obedience to her family and to the proper authorities, but can be naive and gullible at times. She can be easily led, convinced, or talked into doing somewhat questionable things, something that Sherry keeps an eye on for Mazie's own good. The two friends are always together, and do everything together, as Mazie, unfortunately when alone, can become a magnet for unwanted attention from boys and men alike. Mazie also can, at times, have low self-esteem and low self-worth of herself. Even wearing worn-out clothing, she is insanely cute, dripping with innocence, unnervingly adorable, and even covertly sexy, but believes herself to be disagreeably plain or outright ugly. She has to be encouraged almost daily, lest she become depressed about her poor family financial situation, modest apparel and her low station in life. However, she is "poor but honest", and that goes a long way to helping her through her teen years and beyond. Mazie and Sherry are destined to stay together in Yuri friendship and Ludus Love way into their adult lives, if not for the rest of their lives.

**Trivia**

In the English language, the first name Mazie is feminine, and means a pearl.
