      DESCRIPTION:
        → Alejandra is average in height and slim. Her shape is not exactly hourglass; her breasts are the average size and her hips are slightly rounded, but not extremely defined. Her hair is several inches past her shoulders (her bangs frame her face and go to her shoulders), straight, and primarily black, though she has a few distinct brown streaks that frame her face. Her almond-shaped eyes are dark brown in color, almost black. She is naturally tan, given her background and where she lives. She can grow darker, when she's out in the sun too long, and almost never gets burnt. Except for her nose. She always manages to get sunburn on her nose.

Alejandra likes to wear her hair down almost all of the time; she usually only pulls it back when she's working on a car or stooped over a calculator and notepad. She has a pair of knee high combat-style boots that she bought with her first real paycheck when she was 15, which still fit her feet. One of her favorite articles of clothing is a long, pale blue, sleeveless sweater. It ties just under her breasts and has a matching pair of armbands that was made with the same material, that go from her wrist to her elbow. There are two angel wings embroidered onto the back of the sweater. It was made by her grandmother; a tradition in her family (for the grandmother to make something for her granddaughters). When out and about, she will normally wear that with black jeans or shorts and a tank top. She has many nice suits, as well, but that's mostly for work.

She is naturally light on her feet, her footsteps almost silent. She always walks with a purpose, as if she has somewhere to be. She's not really soft-spoken; she speaks at a normal tone but can get loud at the drop of a hat. When you're one girl among ten boys, it's necessary to speak up to be heard. She has a bit of a temper, like her father. But she is like a simmering volcano; it takes a lot to make her blow her top.

        ...........................................................................

        PERSONALITY:
        → Alejandra is a good-natured person, although she does have a tendency to say what she's thinking without filtering through the “socially acceptable” monitor. She can talk to almost anyone and despite the lack of filter, she's pretty polite. She is a little loud when she needs to be; it was a sure-fire way to make herself noticed when living at home. She's at her most comfortable under the hood of a car or staring at a long list of numbers, calculator at her side. She's also naturally comfortable about herself. She's not shamed of who she is or how she looks; she's one of those people who will change in front of a friend without really caring who said friend is.

She's not prone to anger easily; it takes quite a lot to make her angry. She doesn't see a point in being overtly anger all the time, because it's not going to solve much of anything. But when she does get angry, she has a tendency to lose all reason. She'll shout and scream, usually without any regard for who she's shouting at. It isn't exactly pretty, but it is a rare occurrence. She does get irritated, like any average person. She likes order, especially when calculating. If things are not of place, it usually siginifies a bad mood. She also really dislikes people (mostly men) who think they know everything there is to know about cars, when they have no concept at all in reality.

Alejandra will always admit when she doesn't know something or doesn't understand. It's better to get the answer right away and do it right the first time, then make a stupid mistake out of worry she'd be viewed as incompetent. She loves to laugh, even at the really cheesy jokes her father and uncle make. She thinks laughter is really necessary to life and loves to see people smile.

        LOVE:
        → Her family, Firenze, Venezia, numbers, fixing cars, ellipticals, juice-box wine (and wine in general), Hermes, providing for her family, sunny days for cruising, the color blue

        HATE:
        → When her car breaks down, creative writing, peppers, doing laundry, dead batteries in a calculator, treadmills, hail, neon pink, people who think they're good with cars but really aren't

        ...........................................................................

        HISTORY:
        → “It was love at first sight. It was the most amazing car I'd ever seen. ...And then I saw your mother.”

“DAAAAAAAD!!!”

One of Alejandra's favorite stories growing up was listening how her father and her mother met. Sure, she heard it a million times... but it never really felt old. And it always started the same way. The Rovella Auto Repair Shop in Firenze had been family owned for 3 generations, Salvatore being number 3. But when Sally had met Violetta, Papi Rovella was still owner. They were in their mid-twenties at the time. Violetta's Ferrari (a company car) had been acting up and she managed to get it to Rovella's right before it choked out. Luckily, Sally had been there to save the day and sweep Violetta off her feet in the process. Marriage had followed within a year. Talk about a whirlwind romance! Children, however... that didn't come along as fast. Violetta herself was an only child, but Salvatore was one of five brothers. All of his brothers had at least two children, and all of them, boys. But Vi and Sally just waited for the right time to come along, all the time scournging and saving their money for when their own little miracle would come into the world.

It took them some time, but as Sally liked to tell his girl, “You wanted to take your sweet time and show up when you wanted.” They were both in their thirties when the only Rovella girl was born. Alejandra was a delight and doted upon by every person who had the luck to meet her. She grew up walking the lines of ultimate tom-boy and prissy girly-girl. Her mom taught her to appreciate a new outfit and her dad taught her to love cars. L-O-V-E cars. They were in her blood, after all. Her first word was “car” and her second was “Mama,” much to her father's disappointment.

Alejandra found another love when she entered school: numbers. She had an affinity with them, really. Oh, sure. She was decent enough at reading and writing... but it was arithmethic that she always exceled. It followed her up through her school years, right up to high school. There, she managed to land a full-ride to the University of Genova, pulling a double-major of accounting and business, with a minor in mathematics. Sally and Vi were MOST impressed with her, especially pleased that the money they had scrimped over the years for her college fund could be used somewhere else.

University was good to Alejandra. She made friends, learned Cretan and generally had a good time. She rocked all her classes, as expected and graduated with honors. Better yet, she got herself a JOB! She was hired into the Genova department of treasury, which was a pretty swanky government job! Three years after she finished college, at 25, her parents finally decided what to do with her college fund. When she was home for her birthday visiting, her parents took her down to the Auto Shop to a large object covered by a big cloth. Shivers went down Alejandra's spine as her dad whipped the sheet off. Her jaw dropped and then she squealed. Her parents had put a down-payment for her on her DREAM CAR! A Maserati GranTurismo sport! “OH MAN! This is everything I've ever dreeeeeamed!” Of course, it wasn't really hers just yet. She had years of car payments to make on it before she could claim it as her own! Luckily, her job paid her well enough that she could afford her rent, her car payments and food every so often.

Two years later, all was going well at her job. She had been promoted past Genova's department of treasury and up into the Cerisian department of treasury. Not a bad deal, that was for sure. And even there, she was making a name for herself. She'd crunched numbers and managed to pull a decent profit from almost nothing. Alejandra had it... it was as simple as that. Her boss called her into his office one day unexpectedly and Alejandra instantly assumed the worst. Not entirely sure why she did, but she had to panic on occasion for good measure. “Alejandra, you have a phone call.” Her panic rose almost double, automatically fearing the worst... again. Her parents?? She grabbed at the phone. “Hello??”

"Heyyoooooooooo! Alejandry, right? SUP. So, I been lookin' atcher recordses and such, and I seened that youse is good at whatcha does, so hows about comin' ta Gele and workin' for me there? You'd get a big raise, nice house, fancy car, 'n all the ice creams you'd ever wanna eat. PLUS! YOU GET A NICE KEYRING WITH KEYS! Look at the KEYS! KEEEEEEEEEEEEEEYS. Oh wait. Craps, this a phone call. I'LL SHOW YOU THE KEYS LATTER, KKTHXBAI. Smiley face." Alejandra blinked once... twice. She looked over at her both who mouthed “Roy de Royaume.” OH! The strange voice on the other end of the line was the freakin' KING of the Ciel Dominion. That was... well. Okay. And he wanted to hire her to work for him?? Alejandra opened her mouth and what had planned on being a polite question became, “But I already have a nice car?” There was a short pause before Wolfgang enthusicatically responded. "Youse does...? Oh... YOU CAN HAVE A BOAT! 8D" Well... she couldn't exactly say “no” to the big boss, could she?

La Cerisé was sad to see her go, but it wasn't like she was leaving them completely. She would still be helping them with their money issues. On top of everywhere else in the Dominion. No big deal, right? Her parents were decently thrilled when they learned about her top job, but not as much when she said she would have to move to Gelemorté. She agreed to take it though, and she wouldn't back down. “I'll be able to take care of you now. I can take care of everyone. And the shop will never have to worry about being shut down.”

That was the final straw of that. Alejandra had her stuff all packed and she bribed her cousins with delicious food to help pack everything up. Then she was transported via fabulous boat from La Cerisé to Gelemorté. She was to live in a pretty sweet house in Vaingloria. Moving the boxes in was easy. It was the trouble of unpacking them that now loomed before her. But she was kind of excited. What new and exciting things could happen to her now? Plus, Gelemorté looked like a cool place to go cruising.
