Blakemore Swanson

Blakemore Darcelle Swanson, usually just referred to as Blakemore or Blake, is the daughter of the fifth prince from The Wild Swans. In the destiny conflict, she is a Roybel, her story, or at least her role in it, keeps her out of unnecessary spotlights for the most part, but there are thousands of other reasons why it can't work.

Appearance
Blake has thick silver hair, not white, not blonde, not grey, but straight up silver, that is worn in a messy bun. She has eggshell colored skin, long, thick, feathery silver eyelashes, and eyes the color of the sun when it sets. She wears black cat eye glasses, that almost cover up a silver etching of a torn feather underneath her left eye.

She wears a oversized black hoodie, with white draw strings, and the hood usually pulled up over the front half of her face, and black loose fitting pants. She goes barefoot when possible, and when not possible, has these grey slip on shoes.

Personality
Yeah, chances are you haven't noticed Blake, despite her odd appearance. She never looks up, never talks to anyone, and will barely acknowledge you even spoke to her, if at all. She just kind of drifts through life, and most people don't even realize such a person as Blakemore Swanson exists. She's just...there.

Blakemore has been bullied many times in her life, and she doesn't react. She doesn't cry, doesn't scream, doesn't ask them kindly to stop, doesn't even walk away. She just stands there, and if you see her eyes, you notice that she isn't even blinking. It's enough to get most people to back down.

Blakemore has been thought of like a ghost, and honestly, it wouldn't be surprising to other people if she was. She just is so spooky, she has never said a single word, and her cousins say she's always been like that. It is unknown whether or not she can speak, but most say she chooses not to.

She has been joked if she is a witch, given that others can't diminish her or someone she cares for in her hearing, without something awful happening to them at the most a couple hours later. But no one can proof it's her and by all rights she should have no magic, so she usually gets a pass.

But besides that, no one knows anything about Blakemore, and most of what they do know, is drawn from speculation and is probably nothing like the real girl. But since she lets nothing out, and doesn't appear to be part of this world, is there really any doubt.

Blake carries a small, leather bound notebook with her everywhere. She never opens it, but she always has it with her and never sets it down, even when her hands are full of other things. That notebook, whatever's inside of it, means the world to her.

Friends
You really think she has these? At most, she has those people who want to discover just what she is because they don't believe she's really human.

Family
Honestly, Blake has been doomed since birth. There have been rumors going around that the daughter of the fifth prince is actually the mythical Black Swan, a helper to the Wicked Queen who shows up in some, not all, and certainly not the original, retelling. The Black Swan takes a different shape each time, but always bears the broken feather mark underneath their eye.

Father: Lucius Swanson
He knows of his daughter's pretty unavoidable destiny to help the Wicked Queen in some way, and as such, has kept her locked up in order to try and prevent the outside world from knowing about her. Those who know of the Black Swan, have never seen Blake, and those who know of Blake, don't know about the Black Swan.

Mother: Narcissa Swanson
Another reason people say she is at least cursed, is that she survived the birth that was perfectly normal, her mother seemed as okay as a formally pregnant woman can, but the next morning Narcissa was dead. The few servants blamed Blakemore for it, but anyone caught whispering about it was sent away.

Cousin: Luna Swanson
Honestly, Luna considers Blake to be a member of the Squad, despite Blake having no interactions with anyone. She just assumes she knows that a cousin will have to be a member of the squad, perhaps because of her failures with Larkin.

Cousin: Larkin Swan
Larkin is...strange. Blake has stared him down so it seemed like her eyes were burning into his soul, but the next day, she came into her room, only to find a tiny box of expensive chocolate, signed simply by "L". She ate them, but never acknowledged that Larkin had given them to her, and he never brought it up.

Cousin: Fauve Wilder
Fauve, who apparently knows how to pick locks, (don't ask), has picked the lock to Blake's room multiple times and has even given her a cell phone. Blake never uses said phone, but it's still a nice gesture, as once a day an encouraging message is sent to her phone.

Cousin: Opal Wicked
Opal can sympathize, being seen as a black sheep, but she doesn't really understand why Blake is treated the way she is, so every so often, a random gift, like gel foot pads, lotion, a soft blanket, whatever, appears in mid air in Blake's room. It's from Opal, when she can get her magic to do what she wants it too.

Interests
The Stars

She loves, just loves to be outside at night, at least, people think she does, if nothing because she always is found sitting out under the stars.
