Character Name: Cataleen Deschênes
Age: 15
Gender:Female
Birthdate: April 9th, 1412
City / Region: Forestier
House [ Birth, Marriage if applicable]: Born Deschenes
Played by: Ellen Page
Appearance:
Personality: She has a love of animals but a stronger love for peace. Her father’s favorite and her mother’s pride, she is shy and sweet. A true caregiver who is protected by her older siblings. In her caregiving she holds compassion and is also very eager to learn about cultures through people from different houses. She is faithful and loyal to her family but not blindly so. She can also tell when someone else, including her siblings, are upset even if they aren’t showing it. Passionate and self-reliant, never mistake her kindness for her weakness.
Specific Skills or Abilities: Skilled in archery, horseback riding, and herbology.
Background: Once upon a time in Forestier in the year of 1412, there was a birth on April 9th to the Deschenes family. It was the first full moon of the year, it being believed that her birth was a miracle or pure luck because of this. When she was six, she began to show her love for animals through horses. Ever since she could walk, she would try to explore on her own in hopes of discovering a new animal someday.
Cataleen was always a very sweet baby and child, her sweetness turning into kindness as she began to grow throughout the years. She would always want equality for all, believing that everybody always deserves a second chance. This is not her being naive however and should not be mistaken for such. She’s always loved books and has been studious a good portion of her life. Her curiosity sometimes can get her in trouble but at the same time makes her very social with those from other houses, not afraid to approach anybody. She’s been curious ever since the age of 5 when she met her first snake. She tried to pet it, it tried to bite her.
When Cataleen was 9, her sister Breena taught her how to climb trees and be adventurous. She used to follow Bree everywhere, calling her Beebee at the age of 3 and tugging on her dress to get her attention often. Because of her spending so much time with Breena, Cataleen does have memories of Gwynevere and Kael. She doesn’t have much of a connection to them though. She just remembers they were mischievous and spent a lot of time with Bree. At the age of 7 she realized that Daragh was very silent and seemed very troubled. This was when she decided to try and make him smile, bringing him a flower from the garden at least once a day. She still does this every now and then despite the childish nature of it. He was the one who taught her how to shoot a bow and arrow. At the age of 10, Cataleen began to realize what was going on around her in the world and wasn’t so sure she liked what she heard. She was blindly loyal up until this age but refuses to talk about why with anybody. Because of this, she began to pull away from her siblings at the age of 11, which was strange due to her strong relationship with Breena and Daragh. She learned of their missing brother and hopes to find him one day because family is still family. At the age of 14, she began to feel trapped in the shadow of her name and still sometimes feels this way even though she knows better. Now 15 years old, Cataleen maintains her sweet and shy persona but there’s something hiding underneath that smile.

Writing Sample: Trista found herself walking about in the night. It was beautiful, the moon was high and shed little light on the streets as she traversed them. Her dark blue dress was simple and left her shoulders bare to the cool night air. The time between the summer and fall was her favorite, it made for cool nights and warm days. Her soft soled shoes were silent as the grave as she walked to the training grounds, a man catching her eye. He wasn't very tall, but under his smart attire you could see lean muscle and hidden strength. He was sparring with a small child who's arm was bound and in a sling. She silently adjusted her bow and quiver.
Trista kept moving along just outside of his peripheral vision when she saw another woman watching them. Must be a night for social voyeurism. She shook her head better not to involve herself. She continued along to where some targets were set up counting 50 paces from the first target she started warming up. Her arms stretched and limber now, she took the bow from her back and fired an arrow just outside of the center of the target. It made a light whistling sound and she hoped it didn't bring attention to her, it was just better that way.
