Name: Bambi Engel
Age: Twenty-three (23)
Race: Caucasian
Fantasy Race: N/A
Ethnicity: German
Nationality: United States of America, currently resides in Switzerland
Economic Class: Middle Class
Gender Identity: Female
Sexuality: Bi sexual
Political Belief: Just kind of flows with the Manalists
Religious Belief: Tries to be Manalist (Doesn't work out so well sometimes)
Organization: Global Bank
Occupation: Accountant, occasional computer support or editor
Skills:
∙ Computers
∙ Literature
∙ Mathematics
Weaknesses:
∙ Perfectionist
∙ Klutz
∙ Paranoia
∙ Sleep disorder
∙ Curiosity
∙ Horrible liar
Powers: N/A
Weapon: Carries none (Likes to sleep/be with some type of weapon to comfort herself at home)
Appearance: An average heighted and weighted woman, Bambi nonetheless bears her share of "curves in the right places." Her skin is a pale, milky color due to her distaste of wandering outside and habit to lock herself indoors from the rest of the world. Her small lips are a soft pink color that usually blend well with her work suits, though sometimes she likes to sport different colored clothing.
Behind a pair of spectacles she was lucky to receive (and that have somehow remained unbroken), pale blue eyes seem to constantly dart in every direction possible. She often tries to blame her "long legs" for her clumsiness, though they aren't all that long compared to others and she knows it. Her thick hair covers her back and reaches just past her waist, a chocolate colored curtain with layered bangs at the front. She takes great care to her appearance mostly because of her perfectionism, keeping her hair thick and silky, her skin smooth and soft.
Her clothes are rarely casual, since the only time she really leaves the house is for work, which she wears similar suits to every day. Blue lace-up boots with usually white pantyhose, a soft hued (most commonly pink) skirt that reaches her mid thighs, a white collared undershirt, a blouse that matches the hue of the skirt, and lastly a blue tie that matches the color of her boots around the collar of her undershirt. On chilly days, she will also sport a dark brown shawl wrapped snugly around her shoulders.

Personality: Poor Bambi was "cursed" with a sweet nature since birth, always feeling sympathy for people. As one may imagine, this is mostly why she doesn't always follow the Manalist belief so well. For many reasons she has made herself into a timid woman who avoids social situations as much as she can. It's not so much that she doesn't like talking to people, she simply doesn't know how to hold a conversation. Plus, she's terrified someone won't find her "Manalist" enough and kill her. Which is mostly her paranoia's fault.
She freaks out in any place she doesn't think is populated enough, or populated with the right kind of people. Even then, it's a double sword for her. In public places she imagines the people talking are talking about her, that they're pointing and laughing at her. Perhaps the only place she can sometimes actually relax at is her office. Every bad has a good, though, and she believes another benefit of not being too social is she won't show too much sympathy and selflessness.
When she must engage in social activities, her mind is going a million miles an hour and she's quick to anger and defend herself if she thinks someone's making fun of her. She's not very submissive like most people would assume by her timidness, perhaps another reason her Manalist nature hasn't come into question. A sure-fire way to get her going is by making fun of her first name. Her perfectionist nature and paranoia is to thank for the fact that she's never missed a single day of work, turned in an assignment late, or been sick. (At least, ever admitted to being sick.)
Her klutzy moves and curiosity is what gets her into trouble, but despite her paranoia the Global Bank finds her an excellent employee. She's never even complained about a single thing, afraid someone would hear and then she'd be in deep shit. So, they tend to overlook those two factors. However, one day it might just lead her into something way over her head...
Story: Bambi's memories of the place of her birth, the United States, aren't very prominent in her mind. Her mother, deciding she didn't want her daughter to share the same poor fate, borrowed a loan from the Global Bank and sent her to a private school very far away. Every so often she longs to see her homeland, though she knows it's covered in radioactive waste, but she decides against it. She figures her mother died a long time ago, anyway. She never received letters from her mother or any type of family, but she had books and strict teachers to keep her busy.
Her perfectionist was formed during her first few years of school, where all the student's assignments had to be perfect or they were punished. Often, she stayed awake for days straight just to get assignments done on time, and not much has changed from then. She believes her paranoia spawned from the tortures teachers inflicted on the students who weren't "perfect", but she prefers not to think about those times. Teasing and bullying was encouraged by the teachers to the upperclassmen, which is where her first name became a torture. They called her a little frightened doe, told her she would never amount to nothing, that she didn't belong there... All kinds of things.
In fact, most of her weaknesses were spawned during her years of education. After a few years though, she begun to become a teacher's pet, passing most of the other students in the fields of literature, computers, and mathematics. Her past at the school doesn't really bother her now, despite the fact she carried on paranoia from it. She got much more good things out of it than bad. It was a necessary thing for her so that she could become a part of the world, and she is grateful that her mother whom she barely remembers gave her life to pay for her daughter's education. She graduated from the school with a bit above average grades, one thing led to another, and she landed herself a job at Global Bank.
She currently works at the main head quarters mainly as an accountant, sometimes as computer support, occasionally as an editor. Lately she's been thinking about switching locations since the head quarters is so stuffed, but she hasn't really looked into it too much yet. Bambi thinks there is something off about the Manalist religion, but it seems harmless enough to her and keeps the people happy, so she simply follows the masses. She figures that she couldn't do much to help change the world, anyhow.
((I may dice this up a bit later to satisfy my pickyness, but this is more or less the gist. I hope every thing's all right with it. I'm not really sure who I could post with, if any other characters are in Switzerland?))
