Physical Description: Achlys Bellerose, despite her name's origin, has a very innocent and friendly appearance. She has long and wavy blonde hair with wispy bangs, and fair skin that has a light dusting of freckles. Her eyes are a beautiful shade of blue, other than her ability to put on a fake smile, she prides herself on her striking eyes. Some say that it can be a little unsettling making eye contact with her, she acknowledges that but she was taught to make eye contact with people when having a conversation. She is only two inches above the average height for others her age, which she likely didn't get from her mother's side. Her style is more formal including blouses, skirts, and pantsuits but she also wants comfort above all, which means she can also be seen wearing pants. Her style consists of lightly colored clothing like pastels and etc.

Mental Description: Achlys was born into a influential and wealthy, and she was born into a family that prides themselves on having the perfect mask, a mask is basically how to cover up any type of trauma you've experienced with a blank look or a smile that doesn't reach your eyes. To people who don't pay much attention to details, Achlys is a girl that never has a frown on her face and she's always ready to help those in need, they have no idea about the internal struggle she goes through. Achlys is obsessed with perfection and if there is the slightest imperfection about anything, she lashes out, she is normally very composed. As a result of her parents employing nannies to take care of her and her siblings, the nannies thought she was very disturbed and never wanted to touch or comfort her, which made her very touch starved and to put it bluntly, clueless on how to react to physical contact. She often mistakes obsession for love or fondness and it can be hard to pinpoint whether or not what she is feeling is temporary or permanent. She has a fascination with things she thinks are pure, she would analyze and study it until she could understand what makes it so pure. She has this intuition that tells her if someone is lying or generally knowing things, her aunt has always said she has a knack for tarot reading but she disagrees.

Biography: Achlys was born on August 10th, 2012 somewhere in Greece to Apollo Bellerose and Constance Vierden in, she entered the world with a smile gracing her face but it was very bone chilling and sinister. They moved to London 4 years later, the walls of the manor promised wealth and influence. She was deemed the flower of the two families by whoever knew them. As soon as she learned how to talk, she immediately started lessons with her older siblings, she was quick to grasp any subject thrown at her with little effort amd was doted on by the tutors. She didn't have much of a relationship with any of her siblings other than Abigail and Athena, Abigail was the oldest being 15 and Athena being 12 when Achlys was born, they were the only ones to not look at her with suspicion and apprehension, like the others.

Her grandparents were strict and expected nothing less than perfection, though they didn't show it, the favored Achlys because of her embodiment of what someone produced from the blood of both Bellerose and Vierden should be and look like. She was taken to salons (glorified tea parties) and get togethers in order for her family to show off and gloat about, the children had no composure or a perfect mask and didn't hide their distain for Achlys but she was the complete opposite, she smiled at them and delivered compliments perfectly.

She developed a disturbing fascination with butterflies when she was 5, a beautiful little monarch butterfly had approached her and found itself on her index finger, butterflies basically became the root of her obsession with perfection.

Butterflies were pure and oh so beautiful, and for some reason it also became the root of her growing darkness. She always smiled at the nannies but it was always clouded with condescending sass, and it was the same for her parents and siblings but they never noticed. Despite being homeschooled she made friends with all of the kids her age and became very popular and well-known by people in the surrounding neighborhoods, but she knew none of them would've liked her if she was born in a normal family.

Her mother was always busy gossiping with the other moms and her dad was always running his business and being the "head of the family", so she was used to being alone and thought that she only needed her butterflies and no one else. The longer she was used to solitude, the more the growing darkness inside of her was nurtured. When the teacher from Hogwarts came and explained that she was a witch, everything made sense to Achlys and she hoped that they'd allow her to take her butterflies with her to the magical school.

Achlys can't say that they weren't there in the toughest moments of her life, her mom was always there whenever trouble was taking a toll on her physical appearance and her father made sure she didn't need a man to be successful but none of it covered up for the fact that they were only there sometimes, not all the time.

First Instance of Magic: Achlys was 5 and it was a little after she developed her fascination with butterflies, she was attempting to reach a jar on the shelf in her father's study to catch butterflies and the chair she was standing on wasn't sturdy enough, it wasn't long before the chair slipped out of place and she began to fall. For the first time in her life, she was afraid but instead of the hard and cold feel of the floor, she felt a familiar soft texture and looked down to see her large butterfly pillow. She was very confused but it was pushed out of her mind when she realized that she had the jar in her hand and she was able to catch the butterflies.
