Style|| Normally, Tatyana just wears what is comfortable - her style is described by her friends as 'unique chic', and not one person has ever seen her wear the same outfit twice. It's rare that she'll bypass heels for flats, but she does it, and despite her sometimes girly attire, she's very much a tomboy in her actions and hobbies.
I'm tongue tied and terrified of what I'll say.
Likes|| Mechanics (the art of, not the people, though if they're hot, she's not averse), hot guys, hot girls, coffee, strawberries, candles, walks in the dark, kissing in the rain, relationships, snuggling in front of a fire/film/both, kindness, friends, meeting new people, drama (the lesson), libraries, museums, nature, animals, tattoos, working out, her car, her mobile, her brother (usually), late nights, sunrises, sunsets, clubbing
Dislikes|| Not being able to fix a car, people that don't know they're ugly, cat-calls/wolf-whistles, raspberry, parsnips, rhubarb, global warming, animal testing, getting wet for no reason, being single, snobs, jerks, arrogance, dead batteries, early mornings after late nights, unaffectionate people, family dinners, feeling awkward/embarrassed, wasps/bees
Secrets|| She's bisexual, she tried coke once, she's walked in on her mother being unfaithful
Fears|| Spiders, heights, not being able to get help when she goes into anaphylactic shock, being alone for the rest of her life, losing her brother & father
Strengths|| Fixing things, giving advice, remaining calm in panicked situations, keeping secrets, bargain hunting
Weaknesses|| Bad boys, her quick temper, forgetting to speak English (when tired or angry), allergies, falling in love easily, learning new things, a good bargain
Dreams|| To become a famous actress/dancer, to find the love of her life, to get over her fears
Over All Personality|| Tatyana, just like everyone else in the world, has a very complex personality. It can only truly be understood through patience and a willingness to learn. However, a small insight will be given to you to help you to understand the kind of person that she is.
Tatyana is a very passive girl, and that is a very important point. She will do almost anything to avoid conflict, and if anyone tries to confront her in an aggressive way, she will either respond calmly or simply walk away. It's not that Tatyana HATES conflict, it's just that she doesn't want to say something that she may later regret in the heat of the moment. Not many people know this, but as a child, Tatyana had a very hot temper, and would throw tantrums at the smallest of things. She prides herself on having gotten over that hurdle, but she is still painfully aware of the sharp, sarcastic nature in her that is always ready to bite back.
Because she was brought up 'correctly', Tatyana knows to accept and respect authority, wherever or whoever it may be. Be it a police officer, a teacher, or just the shift manager at Taco Bell, Tatyana doesn't answer back, and appears to be rather meek.
She is very loyal to those that know her well, and she is devoted to making sure that her friends and family aren't suffering or wanting for anything, and that they don't have any unresolved problems that she could help with, or just sit and listen to. She isn't altruistic to the point of being obsequious, though, and she knows when a subject is taboo or just not up for discussion.
She may 'only' work in Taco Bell now, but Tatyana has aspirations; she has dreams. She has an ambition to be an artist, though not in the paint-and-brush definition of the word. Instead, she wants to be a theatrical artist; a singer, a dancer, a script-writer, a director, a producer, but most of all, an actress. She is truly able to see the aesthetic beauty in the most unappealing of things, and can draw a silver lining from the darkest of clouds.
She is a very caring girl, but she has few friends, and so has a lot of love to spare. She generally pours most of this onto her brother, or onto a difficult car that the mechanics have been trying to fix for weeks, but always keeps a reserve for anything or anyone that she may see at any time that may be in need of something. She is the kind of person that would give a man on the street her last dollar, and then bring him home with her and feed him anyway.
This all leads to how considerate and thoughtful Tatyana is, and the teachers never see her being anything but considerate, polite, conscientious and cooperative. However, no-one is perfect, and even the courageous, devoted, loving, enthusiastic Tatyana has her flaws.
Change is a big thing to her, and she doesn't like it one bit. She hates when things in her room are moved around, and can sense that something is wrong upon entering the room. She gets restless if things are changed without prior notice, and a cancellation of plans at the last minute practically leaves her foaming at the mouth, though she would never admit it to anyone.
Tatyana is bubbly and friendly, sociable to everyone she sees.... However, she does lack a certain quality that most performers find is very important - self-confidence or self-esteem. It's not as if she thinks she's terrible, and her self-esteem is rock-bottom... it just doesn't exist at all. She has no opinion on herself, and when she gives an opinion, it tends to be a quick indifferent phrase and then a quick change of subject. She lacks the belief in herself that she can go far, and that she is talented, though her belief that she is only adequate can never stop her from dreaming.
Tatyana also finds it hard to completely trust people, as she doesn't have the close best friend that everyone else seems to have. She keeps her secrets locked up, despite being more than happy to listen to everyone else's when they rear their heads in form of problems, puzzles, conundrums or riddles that her friends find it too difficult to solve.

Father|| Sergei Gershkovic, 46, Translator/Interpreter
Mother|| Adelaide Gershkovic, 39, Lawyer (QC)
Siblings| Lance Gershkovic, 21, Fitness Instructor

History|| On the 15th of January, 1989, a couple by the name of Sergei and Adelaide Gershkovic were married in a large, expensive, and very.... WHITE... ceremony in the South of France. The exact name of the village cannot be revealed, due to governmental reasons and contracts that I do not wish to breach. Needless to say, the whole village was at their disposal, and their disposable income saw to it that the whole village was decorated and paraded around both before and after the actual ceremony.
At this time, they were young and carefree lovers, though it only took some 4 months for Adelaide to conceive. Not only were they young and carefree, though. They were heirs. Well, technically Adelaide was an heiress, but you catch my drift. Both young newly weds had fortunes in their back pockets, and they had yet to work at all. This money didn't go to their heads, though it stood them in good stead when Adelaide did fall pregnant.
In 1989, May 7th, to be precise, Adelaide gave birth to their son, the heir to both of their fortunes, and another that would accumulate in the future. He was named Lance Pierre Gershkovic.
Tatyana Haizea Gershkovic was born on the 14th of February, 1994, when Sergei's business as an interpreter and translator was just beginning to take off. He was there at the birth, and by Adelaide's side every night that he was able, when Tatyana awoke and cried for various reasons.
Sergei worked hard at his new business, eager and raring to earn money off his own back, feeling guilty at spending the money of his dead parents without contributing anything to it, and he put himself through university - a Languages Degree. By then, it was 1998, and Lance was nine years old and the little cherub Tatyana was four. How the time had flown, and how in love the couple still were, but they were restless. France was not the place for them, though it was the birthplace of the whole family, save their father.
New Hampshire was the place to go, it seemed, and so it was the place they went. Tatyana soon forgot about her friends in France, and made new friends when she started school in Hampton. She made more and more friends as she climbed up through the grades, but then, when she started high school, right around when puberty set in, Tatyana was withdrawn. She had few close friends, and she appeared to like it that way. No-one save Tatyana knew why. It was because of this strange feeling she had discovered in herself - liking girls as she liked boys - she didn't want others to find out. That... And she was filled with insecurities about her body, just like any other teenage girl.

Role Play Sample|| Jackie had been in Forks for less than an hour, and she was already bored out of her skull. She had gotten to her father's house (which was sorely lacking in personal effects) and it had taken her precisely ten minutes to transfer her belongings from her suitcases to the chest of drawers that smelled like it hadn't been opened since she was born (which, she reminded herself, probably wasn't wrong). She spritzed air freshener into every drawer before her stuff went in, but the room still smelled musty. She contemplated opening the window, but that idea was soon forgotten as she saw that it had started to rain. It was fat rain, the type that made you wet, cold and uncomfortable all at once, even when it was really just a 'light shower'. It was angled right at her window, and she didn't want to jump right into the bad weather. She'd rather ease into it as slowly as humanly possible.
Her bed, or the bed that was in the room she was meant to call hers, was a single, and decked with fresh bedding. It seemed that Adam had made an effort the only way he knew how - supplying her with a comfortable bed. It was the only thing he could think of because he didn't know her at all. Plus, all he used the house for was a rest stop between shifts. Jackie only glanced at it - sleep wasn't one of her favourite pastimes. She stopped to put a pair of pajamas on her pillow, and throw a blanket over the foot of the bed, and then shoved the empty suitcases on the top shelf of the fitted closet in the corner of the room. Frowning, she sat on the corner of the bed, not used to having time to herself that was completely silent. Adam had dropped her off with her own key before gunning it back to work, and she had been told not to expect him before ten.
She sighed, and pulled her cell phone out of her pocket. Limited service. Great. I'm gonna have to change my service provider while I'm here. That sucks. She thought, rolling her eyes and jumping down the stairs, three or four at a time. She picked up the handset and dialed her mother's house. Marina answered straight away, breathless from laughing. Jackie's greeting was mock severe as she bit back a smile. "Hi, Mom. I'm at Dad's now, so yeah... I'd've texted you, but reception sucks here. I'll change providers tomorrow, probably." The conversation wasn't long, but it made Jackie feel slightly happier. Apparently, Marina hadn't even thought of something new to torment Ray with yet, but she didn't doubt that a crazy idea was just on the horizon.
Hanging up, Jackie looked at the clock. Barely even two o'clock. She never could have guessed that from looking out of the window. It was dank, grey, wet, with a strange green cast over it all. Green. Florida wasn't all that green - more yellow and brown from the parching heat, but green was hardly foreign to her. It just had never encompassed everything as it seemed to do here. Everything was covered in moss or ivy, and trees seemed to decorate every spare inch of landscape that wasn't modernised with a road or a building. With a roll of her eyes, Jackie snatched her coat off the rack by the front door and stalked out, only turning back to lock the door. It was so quiet, though, that she really didn't think there was any need. Especially not for the deadbolt. People in Tampa, a place at least twelve times bigger than this, didn't bother locking their doors over half of the time. Perhaps, she reflected, that was why it had the crime rate it did.
She had no car yet (that was another thing that she needed to do, and soon), so going for a drive to the nearest town was out of the question. There were only the necessary shops along one street in Forks, and nothing appealed to her during the short exploration she had of each of them. She had a purse full of money, plus two credit cards, and nothing to buy. There were no signs in cars saying that their owners didn't want them any more, and that irked Jackie. She wanted a car. An hour and a half in, she already wanted to get out of Forks. Veering off the main road, she had no idea where she was going, and she wasn't really paying attention. It didn't strike her that her surroundings had changed until she was about three miles into a very vivid green forest. Great. She had no clue where she was, or how to get back. Her dad was gonna kill her.
