hello, dears.
my name is Shae.
i have been living in my own wonderland for Twenty-Six years,
but have only been in the RP realm for Thirteen years.
i would also like to say I can growl like the Cheshire Cat when I'm happy, though I have no tail to wag when I'm upset.

hair colour • Black
eye colour • Violet
distinctive characteristics • Eyes Variate in colours; when she is calm they appear to be a dark Violet almost brown, when she is mad they somehow grow darker, when she is sad they grow into a lighter shade of violet and when she is content they seem to glow a violet haze that could captivate you. She was born with a small dark Birthmark just below her left eye, it appears to be in the shape of a Spade. Which is where she often gets her nickname, Queen of Spades.

overall appearance • She used to stand tall, proud and strong, however lately she seems so unsturdy, as if a breeze could knock her down. She is usually adorned in the most lavishing of gowns of dark black velvets and valor. Her dresses are trimmed in golds, red and white lace and she wears many jewelry pieces and head dressed with the most red of gems in the gold. It is easy to tell she comes from fortune. She has long dark hair which nearly touches her her knees, but is often weaved up, usually only allowing one person to see her with it down completely. Though her skin is pale naturally, she often paints her face just a bit whiter, accenting her eyes with darker tones in contrast.

history • Many years ago when Alice first stepped foot onto the grounds of Underland, she met a interesting lady who reminded her somewhat of the Queen of Hearts. The only difference of course, is that she had quite the change of attitudes. One moment Nasty, another moment kind, she was vile to her child and thought so highly of morals that it kept her blind, she was known as The Duchess.

Years have gone by, many in fact since that day and in that time a many changes have come. The Duchess had long passed her title to her Daughter Elladora when she was just a young woman. After all, you can't very well be a Duchess with your head in a moat, off with her head!

Elladora remembers Alice very much. She was intrigued by this new girl, the way Alice went about so curious and so confidant. She was very clever as well, and the oddest things she did. Elladora wished she could have been more like the blond girl in her dreams. However, years of her mothers torment did not afford such and it left Elladora a very careful girl and obi dent. For whenever she misbehaved, acted like a child, coughed, sneezed or spoke out of line, or when she never understood the moral of something she was punished most cruelly. Especially when she sang, the Duchess said it reminded her of geese and toads arguing. The lack of her ability to be a child left her a quiet somewhat timid young woman. But as timid as she was, she grew to be a Strong, solemn and Smart individual. When her mother died, from winning too many Croquet matches perhaps, Elladora was left in charge of her family. Or at least herself, for her Pig of a brother, was taken away when her mother was executed. He was made a servant to the Queen, a nice pig belly for her feet.

She was young when she began attending Court on a regular basis in place of her mother and to represent her household. But it was not until more recently in years that she noticed a young man she had not noticed when he was a boy and visiting. But as a man there was something which caught her eye, the way he watched her perhaps, the eyes that followed. Then one day she found out just how fond he had become, and the truth behind those eyes. She often walked the mazes lines you see, though one day she let down her guard and did something she had only done in secrecy before; she sang, a soft melody she had heard. That was when he appeared, Lord Orpheus Lemier. It was as fairy tales often say, love at first sight, voice at first Lyre. The courtship began, their company enjoyed and she found herself the most happy of all women. The only problem that surfaced was his devotion to his Queen, and her dislike.

After they were betrothed the truth of both opinions came out and they found themselves for the first time finding difficulty in agreeance on a subject. In the end it left a marriage postponed, visits shortened, estrangement and a slight avoidance which left Elladora with a heavy heart. Her mind now is accompanied on trying to understand how they will survive this difference of opinion, and if they will ever be wed or if their love should fall.
