Overall:Blithe is a 5’5” tall brunette who is very independent, not afraid to get her hands dirty and will try pretty much anything at least once. She is one to jump in and do things, which is why many see her as a straightforward risk-taker who will call things as she sees them. If she feels that something needs to get done Blithe with jump right in and do it, even if it breaks laws or rules; which is one of her biggest pitfalls. She has a tendency to live in the present and believes that rules and laws are merely guidelines for a person’s behavior rather than mandates. Many times she will say things without thinking and doesn’t usually see or sometimes care if her words hurt others with her words. Despite her careless way with words she does have an uncanny ability to read people’s body language and facial expressions; things that too often go unnoticed by others.
She also has an appreciation for the finer things in life and will buy things she likes when she sees them. Money has a way of burning a hole in her pocket. She was a spoiled youngest child of three and got special attention from her dad because she was also the only daughter. This helped foster he love of having fun all of the time and not care much about her studies, although she is rather intelligent. Sometimes when she starts a project and she gets bored with it she will abandon it without a second thought, leaving others to finish what she had started. One of her favorite pastimes is to go out to different restaurants with her friends. All of her outgoing, rash, and crazy decisions stems from the idea that one should live life to the fullest and do everything they wanted when they want so that they won’t die with any regrets.

History:
Blithe was born in Northern England to Devin and Anna Carrington and is the youngest of three. She has two older brothers, Keegan and Barrett, who would often get in trouble for picking on her by their parents and eventually gave up. The two would constantly be out doing things and Blithe wanted to be right there with them. As much as they protested her presence she didn’t care and would always jump in and do things without any fear of what the consequences might be and she was always getting hurt but she didn’t care. Blithe always seemed to bounce back from her injuries rather quickly and would move on with her life, however her brothers became rather protective as she got older, Barrett more so than Keegan.
Her mother was a stay at home mom who homeschooled all three children until they went each received their owls of acceptance to wizarding school. While her father was home and away on business. She never knew exactly what her father did because it was never discussed around them but she had a feeling that it was something illegal. All Blithe knew was that he made bucket loads of money and she never really cared how.
The Carringtons were a well off family who had a bit of extra money that they could spend on their children. They were never expected to do chores around the house such as taking out the garbage or doing the dishes, Anna always did them. Blithe grew up receiving an allowance every week from her parents for spending money once she was nine years old. Before that Devin and Anna put her money in her bank account in Gringots. About a year ago Devin was transferred to a job in America so the family packed up and moved to a little town called Coupeville in Washington State. There was not a lot to do in the little town but there were lots of places to explore around it in the woods and at the nearby beach.
When her parents moved to the United States both of her brothers were already finished with school so Blithe decided that she would just transfer to a school there instead so that she would be closer to her parents during school holidays. Her oldest brother Barrett went off to work in Northern Russia, doing research for their father. While Keegan took the time after graduation to travel the world; a venture Blithe deeply wants to join him in. When Keegan had been away at school he didn’t come home often and when he did would get into heated arguments with their parents. He is very sarcastic and overly confident all of the time, which comes off as rude and over the line. This caused a rift between Blithe and her brother over the years. Unfortunately was held back after failing all of her classes her third year of school, so now she has one more before she graduates.

RP Sample:
The gray overcast blocked out most of the sun but the few rays that forced their way through the clouds bounced off the water, reflecting off of her sunglasses. Blithe sat on the edge of the pool with her feet in the water, watching some kids playing at the shallow end. She reached behind her where her towel and other belongings were grabbing her ipod, sticking the headphones in her ears. Her head began to bob up and down as she listened and she almost began to sing out loud.
Blithe leaned back on her hands looking around again and thought I’m glad I ended staying out here this summer…I’d rather not be stuck back in the land of rain. I think I might go explore the area more. There seems to be so much to do around here. Her legs swirled in the water some more and she clicked to the next song on her player.
She had arrived in the U.S. only a few months earlier just after school had ended and she still was getting used to the country. Blithe had a feeling that spending the summer away from her family for the first time was going to be exciting. It was going to be a summer of new adventures, friends and the start of a new beginning.
