DELVE A LITTLE DEEPER

but you still only graze the outer skin.
Skin Tone: Pale tan
Eyes: Black with silver flecks
Hair: Long, straight ebony hair that falls to her mid-back
Height: 5'4''
Build: Sturdy, curvy, but still slender
Style: Pride. That is the first thing people notice about her. Blossom holds herself with an amount of pride that can rival that of the royal family itself. Her chin is up, her shoulders are back, and she moves with a sense of dignity that is uncommon for her occupation. Everything about her is an extension of that pride and grace. It isn’t to say that she commands attention or anything like that. No, hers is a quiet grace, the exotic grace that comes with her station. Blossom has a love for creams and blues, and she wears a fair few pieces of jewelry, and she loves scented water. She normally smells of cinnamon.

Father: Lord Gregory of Mindlea's Keep
Mother: Lady Sasha of Mindlea's Keep
Other: Lady Ashley of Mindlea's Keep
Origin: Blossom was originally from a noble family, but chose to become a courtesan (disowned sorta does that).
History:
One of the most popular courtesans in the city had a much grander childhood, and it is a mystery to most how she got to her current position. But very few people know about her past, unless they know her from her former life, or hear rumors that still exist today. Blossom was born Lady Blossom of Mindlea’s Keep, the youngest child of two fairly wealthy nobles. She was brought up to be quite lady-like, although her nature left a few scandals here and there. But she was very happy.
Up until it was time for her marriage. Blossom was very close to her older sister, Ashley, who was older by three years. Blossom had been courted by a young nobleman named Derek, and she began to notice that every time that he came over, he and her would sister vanished. For weeks Ashley managed to dodge her sister’s questions until Blossom finally cornered her and badgered the problem out of her. The problem was quite simple, but a very unfixable one – Ashley and Derek were in love. Ashley’s own marriage had ended a year previously when her husband had died in a riding accident.
Blossom had no idea what to do. Blossom was seventeen, and had no desire to be married in the first place. But when she brought it up to her parents, they were furious. They couldn’t break the engagement – apparently Derek’s father wanted the younger daughter, seeing Ashley as an omen of bad luck. Blossom watched as her sister and her fiancé become sadder, and the girl began to hatch a plan. A daring, unthinkable plan, but a plan nevertheless. The girl didn’t tell anyone she was leaving, and one winter morning, the Mindlea’s Keep estate was thrown into a state of panic when they found her missing. Blossom vowed never to return, and so far, hasn’t. Her father tracked her down later and when he realized who and what she became, fully disowned her. He returned to the court, forbidding her ever to return.
Blossom knew that she wasn’t going to be able to return to the court. Her curiosity had always gotten the better of her, and she ended up in the red light district of city. For a while she wandered around there, and was almost kidnapped before a courtesan named Dovasary saved her. At first, the woman tried to get Blossom home, but she refused. She began to live in the high class brothel, first helping out around the place to earn her spot there, then slowly being taught the art. Dovasary warned her that once she went down this path, she would never be able to go back.
Blossom knew it, and chose her path anyway.
For the past four years, she has served as one of the court’s courtesan. She changed her name to St. Peter, as she did not want to dishonor her sister. To her own surprise, she enjoyed her position, though she does miss her family. But she doesn’t hold regrets.
STILL DO NOT JUDGE

Fears: being alone, not being able to support herself
Mental Stability: sane
Strength: Diplomacy
Weakness: Hot tempered
General Persona:
There are two very different sides to her, her work side, and her true personality. Initially, Blossom can be a very quiet person. She's very good at the whole "speak when spoken to" sort of idea. When she does talk, it's usually in a very quiet, soft voice that could probably be over looked for the wind. She tends to fade into the background when she’s not around people she knows, which is perfectly fine with her.
Once you get her to open up and relax, you'll find that she's a sweet, if not a bit quiet, girl. She genuinely cares about the people around her, and does her best to please others. Blossom is the type of person who doesn't think about herself at all, but wants to make everyone around her happy. Ari can come off as being somber and serious, since she rarely laughs, but it isn't because she is extremely somber, just…. Serious.
Although she has a sharp tongue and hot-temper, it’s rare for her to get truly angry. She will have outbursts, yes, but true anger? Not so much. It is nearly impossible for her to hate anyone, or to get angry, really, but once you do, woe on you. Slow to anger and slow to forgive, Blossom has been known to hold grudges for years. Her temper, when aroused, is fierce and can be quiet violent, a change from her normal calm and gentle personality. She has been known to lash out physically, even though she hates hurting others. She has tried to control her temper, but will be the first one to admit that she doesn't have the best control over it.
Then, there is her work side, which is very different. When she is working, she is focused. She is warm, welcoming, and polite. She is more outgoing in this persona, quick to smile and to make jokes. She is still her gentle and kind self, and doesn’t go out of her way to attract attention. She does love her job, and does her best at it, and wants to make others happy. It’s strange, but true.
