Appearance [1297] : She isn't incredibly flawed nor is she perfect in terms of beauty. With an obsession for dyeing her hair, bleach white now coats her locks, feeling that white is the deity of all blends. Ortensia normally keeps it under shoulder length, with no real reason. It also gives her a winter wonderland-ish look, yet her bright ivory orbs contrasts quite well, taking on an image of breathtaking fields of green. Often feeling self-conscious of her plain skin and 'pinched' nose, glitter and other assortments of glamor are spatted against her eyeliner, with darkened lashes to further minus the mistakes she felt she was born with. Every day she feels insecure about her appearance, always finding errors with adjectives like "fat" or "long" or just plain "ugly".
Miss Pomme loves things that are just 'beautiful' in general; food, nature, etcetera. She puts in her favorite tastes into her clothing, to make herself feel more unique. Most of her accessories accentuate her legs, originally feeling they were too long and stick like- now she thinks they have some purpose. When she is on an adventure, Ortensia sticks to a white-t with some sort of flamboyant design, skinny wash-out capri, and a pair of sandals; of course with a ribbon tied on in any random place to make her, well, Ortensia.
Background [2806] : Brielle Sherwood, was a florist back in Celadon City in the Kanto region. She had worked in the flower shop which has been run by previous generations of Sherwood's, Brielle being the only one to adopt her husbands surname. She had met Augustine Blanche at the Celadon department store, and quite literally dropped everything to run with him.
There was not anything far-out or wild about her childhood. Named after a species of flower cherished by her mother and could-not-care-less father, Ortensia sprouted in a small dome of which she called 'home', which was located in Vermillion City. She had an average childhood where she often showed the rebellious woman within her. Ortensia was introduced to violin before she knew how to form more 'advanced' sentences like I have free will you know!, but even then mother knows best. Her teacher was among the most brutal, harshest of creatures with looks that not even a mother could love. A blind mother, too; she smelled of all that is unholy. She even had a name that sounded evil, but with names like that one would assume she was up to no good. On the contrary, her mother felt that with a name like that, she held much knowledge and was willing to pass it down to young Ortensia.
Her mother felt that it was best if Ortensia was able to get a taste of everything, thus breaking the piggy bank and traveling the Kanto region for a variety of good eats, religion, and love. Her father was unable to attend, as someone had to fetch the money. Among her travels, she was able to take sight of her first Pokémon battle. There was a sudden thrill of emotion running inside of her, as her eyes widened with joy. Her mother did not care for it, actually seeing it as "another way to escape the consequences of animal abuse," causing another hinder in their ever-sought mother daughter relationship. There were many fights along the way, but the year-long vacation rekindled their relationship in many varieties. Coming back to Vermillion, there were many things on her mind. The only one that struck her mind, however, was becoming what her now dreams were- become a great trainer and love her Pokémon the way they love her.
As she approached her teenage years, she also began her troublesome years- trying to find herself in many ways her mother would find inappropriate. Her mother found it hard to put a gripping hold on her life, and soon she accepted that she was turning into a woman with a mind of her own. Of course she made sure Ortensia knew that there was a bed for her to sleep whenever she needed a mothers affection, and even offered to give a loving hand to her Pokémon (even though inside she hated the little creatures). There was not really any destination or goal in her life, but to live the role of Ortensia to its fullest.
Personality [637] : Often she is described as overly-rambunctious, yet incredibly ambitious. Her mother even says she is just exploring herself, and in some sense she is right. Ortensia is just beginning to bloom, having yet to find a companion of her own. She does not mind making small errors in things, figuring that it increases the possibility that she will not repeat the same error as well as be advised to be more cautious. Rules do not form obstacles for her, as when she cannot be herself is when the rule must be broken. She's not so rebellious to where she loses the respect of her allies, rather that she is a rebel when the world needs a just. She also, like most female teenagers, acquires a hormonal quench. She likes boys and often views them as 'prey', so-to-speak. Her actions when she is with a boy that she really finds interesting isn't all too different from when she is with her friends; she tries to speak with an alluring feat, even pulls off a perfect Blanche Dubois; you know, minus the crazy.
Info: She likes pie.
