And so that there should be no defect in this bewitching face, her nose was not handsome, it was pretty. Neither straight nor curved, neither Italian nor Greek, it was the Parisian nose — that is to say, something spirited, delicate, irregular and pure, the despair of painters and the delight of poets." » HAIR COLOR: chestnut red with hints of gold in the right light » EYE COLOR: blue » HEIGHT: 5'5" » BUILD: slender, not at all fit » DOMINANT HAND: right » TATTOOS: none » PIERCINGS: none » DISTINGUISHING MARKS: A small birthmark on the lower right side of her neck. » DEFINING CHARACTERISTICS: Carries herself like a proper little lady when she's walking, unless she's running wild. Once she acclimates, she'll be impeccably on trend. » STYLE: Initially, Cosette's sense of style will be somewhat old-fashioned. For her first few weeks in Darrow, she'll be more inclined to wear long dresses and skirts, nothing too form-fitting, no pants, no makeup, etc. Given time, however, to study modern fashion and accommodate herself to the changes, this will change drastically. To be updated. ▶ FIRST IMPRESSIONS AND MANNERISMS: Demure, withdrawn, polite, Cosette is sweet and innocent at first glance, all softness and wide eyes and a willingness to please. This is how she was taught to behave, both in the convent and through years of abuse. It's not entirely accurate to who she is, which is much more spirited, given the chance. ▶ SOUND: Soft, sweet voice, "girlish," with a distinctly French accent.

Dirt, from the garden, though it's too cold to do much out there just now. ▶ TOUCH: Cosette keeps her hands to herself and hopes you'll do the same.
