general info
Name: Avalonia
Nickname: Ava, Avalon
Gender: female
Birthday: April 15
Sexuality: Heterosexual
Relationship Status: Taken
Bio: Avalonia, who also goes by Ava, grew up as an only child in a decent-sized home. Her parents made more than enough money to keep a roof over their heads and food on the table, but they did not live extravagantly. Ava knew her parents could afford nicer things. So she couldn't understand why her mother wore the simplest of jewelry, or why her father drove a boring car. Her allowance barely covered the makeup she purchased for herself. Whenever she tried to request a higher allowance, her parents refused her requests.
So Avalonia started working after school as a waitress to make herself extra cash. She saved up to purchase herself nicer makeup, jewelry, and clothes. Her parents saw this and tried to take her things from her. That was the last straw for Avalonia. She took her other savings and moved out, telling her parents that if they wouldn't allow her to be herself she would go do so somewhere else. It wasn't that Avalonia was snobby or anything like that; she really just wanted to live at the level she knew her parents could afford. Her father's last words to her were that they couldn't bear to see her turn into a snobby rich kid and if that is what she wanted, then she was disowned from the family. A few years later, after making it on her own, Avalonia found out that her parents went on to have a son, and that he would inherit all of the family's fortune. By that time though, Avalonia had found Finn and was exactly where she wanted to be.
After being disowned from her family, Avalonia went out on her own to try and make a name for herself. While waitressing one day, she saw an ad for mermaid classes, where one could learn to act and behave like a mermaid. Ava was intrigued and signed up for the classes. From day one of taking the classes, she knew this was what she was meant to do. Ava began to transform herself then. She grew her hair out, began to style the fur on her tail to make it look like she had fins, and began to decorate herself with ocean-themed accessories. She began getting gigs anywhere she could, until Avalonia the Mermaid was a name known up and down the coast. Today, after meeting Finn, she still does acts every once in a while.
Personality: Upon seeing Ava, many people would assume she is a snob and looks down on everyone else. This isn't true. Ava is humble and enjoys life to the fullest. She never would have imagined having a mate (let alone one that is a pirate!) and children one day, but here she is living on a real life pirate ship and helping her mate smuggle goods! Ava loves the thrill of her mate's work. When she starts to miss her mermaid acts, she will find out where Finn is headed next and book a gig somewhere close to his destination so that when they get there she can go off and do a show. Ava also loves her children and is absolutely thrilled that they are both doing good work.
Likes: mermaids, fine jewelry and clothes, her mate and children
Dislikes: her parents
Accessories: starfish clip in her hair; pearl necklace and bracelets with seashells attached; fishing net with seashells attached
Other Tidbits: Avalonia was named after a microcontinent in the Paleozoic era.
