Name: Zelda Fitzgerald
Appearance: Zelda has short blonde hair, greyish blue eyes, is on the thinner side, tends to wear dresses/clothes from the 1920s, and is 5'6" feet tall.
Gender: Female, she/her
Backstory and Personality:
* Backstory:
** Zelda was born into the wealthy Sayre family who resided in Montgomery, Alabama. Growing up, Zelda was a mischievous girl who got herself in all sorts of trouble, with her high status keeping her from falling in ruin. In 1918, when she was 18, Zelda met F. Scott Fitzgerald at a country dance and they fell in love. Scott proposed to Zelda, but she declined to marry him due to him not being able to provide for her expensive lifestyle. That changed when Scott published his first novel, This Side of Paradise, in 1920, which was an instant best-seller and Zelda ended up marrying him. Afterwards, they moved to New York City and had a daughter, Scottie, together.
** The Fitzgeralds became notorious in New York as they climbed their way up the social ladder with their constant partying and drinking. They were dubbed the "Enfants Terrible" of the Jazz Age as the couple got themselves up in all sorts of shenanigans, such as riding on top of taxis, jumping into water fountains and causing mayhem at hotels and theaters. Zelda in particular was nicknamed "the first American flapper" as she led the example for the young women of the era, who became flappers, women with bobbed hair and knee-lenght skirts (which was considered very short at the time) who broke away from social norms and led wild, independent lives. The Fitzgeralds took delight in their decadent lifestyle and enjoyed it all.
** In 1923, a very drunk Zelda stumbled upon a mysterious blue portal that appeared in an alleyway and carelessly walked through it. There, she ended up at a certain research station in Antarctica, around a century or so after her time. Unable to return as the portal disappeared, Zelda would have to adapt to her new surroundings in order to survive.
* Personality:
** Zelda is a very charismatic, free-spirited woman. She's very daring and bold, doing whatever will amuse her. As a result, she's impulsive and reckless; she may not think about the consequences of her actions. Zelda says whatever comes on her mind, although she's quite amicable, so she'll at least try to be polite.
** Even with her chaotic nature, she still longs to come back home to be with her husband and daughter, so she may try anything to get back to them, especially when she gets desperate and worried for her life.
** Considering her family history of mental illness, Zelda may crack mentally during intense, high-stakes situations. She'll panic and freak out if pushed to her limits in said situations, with the whole time-travel isekai to Antarctica not helping her.
Abilities:
* Charisma: As mentioned earlier, Zelda possesses good charisma which she can use to try talking her way out of problems and win people over to her side.
* Writing and Drawing: She's decent at both.
* Dancing: Having took ballet classes as a child, Zelda knows how to dance but she's also quite agile and physically flexible as a result.
Other:
* Zelda speaks in dark orange and a Southern accent.
* When the game starts, she'll probably start drunk as hell as I imagine she just recently arrived in the RP's setting.
