Eve Morrison

Bio:

History

Name: Eve Morrison
Age: 23
D.O.B.: September 21 1986
Hometown: Madison, New Jersey

Physical Description: red hair, blue eyes, short height, slim build. Usually wears vintage patterns and pieces, or re-made stuff from old clothes. She's got a tattoo of a snake wrapped around an apple on her wrist.

Career/Job: Eve has got a bachelor's degree in Arts and Technology, and before she joined the workforce, she decided to take a break. This was it.

History: Eve was born to a social worker mother and a car dealership owner father. She grew up in Madison, NJ and she had quite the average childhood, mostly uneventful. When she was fifteen her mother got pregnant again, and she couldn't be happier. She is very sweet and caring to her little brother Kevin, he's her favourite person in the world.
She found her passion for the arts the summer before High School, which she spent with her aunt in New York visiting the city's most famous museums and galleries. Her aunt then prodded her talents by funding her arts supplies all throughout school.
It is unclear when Eve's passion for life and its thrills began, but it is possible that all that art and all that reading has awaken some wilderness in her spirit. She wants to live like the characters in the books she reads, and the artists she heard so much about, and that is what she mainly wants out of life. She has been in love several times – she is always in love, however fleetingly so – but only once or twice did it really reach her heart. It didn't work out both times, but she doesn't let that get her down. To her, it has always been about the thrill love gives you.
Unlike most of the artist types we see portrayed (mostly in the media), Eve was never an outcast or outsider in High School. In fact, she has always been very popular, a "social butterfly" of sorts. She's artistic, granted, but not quirky enough that people don't understand her, and the way she presents herself and her ideas helps with the social status. As it was, people tended to gravitate towards her, her good mood and how good she made them feel, which made her High School experience much less traumatic than that of most teenagers; she loved it very much, and she tends to miss it, simply because like it or not, things were much easier back then. Having been popular, however, never meant any kind of position of power to Eve. She never participated in prom committees, she was never a cheerleader, and she was never class president, either. She liked – still does – to have fun too much to have any kind of responsibility. Of course she wasn't liked by everyone, that's impossible, and even more so with her personality. However the little fights and arguments she gets into barely register because in her mind, she always wins.
She went to college after High School, like many kids do, but she didn't leave the state, thinking she would have all the time in the world to travel after getting all the education she wanted to get. Obviously, Eve majored in Arts and Technology, and minored in writing. The popularity tendency remained, although not all around campus – that would be nigh impossible. Eve did make a lot of friends, a few foes, and more than a few boyfriends.
Nothing in the graduate course prospect at her college aroused Eve's interest, and she didn't really feel like she needed anything else out of any kind of teaching institution, so she decided to take a break, maybe travel and write, definitely have some fun, and then look for a job as a designer or something along those lines. That was when she entered the contest, won, and now here she is.

Family: Kyle Morrison – father
Penny Morrison – mother

Isobel Day – aunt (mother's sister)

Personal

Personality: Eve is outgoing and friendly, but very conflicted. She has a lot of ideals and ideas, and wants something outstanding, thrilling and special out of the world and out of life at every minute. Since this sort of thing is very hard to find, more so constantly, she is frequently disappointed.
Because of her constant search for that thrill, Eve is very impulsive and reckless, and she's never quite content in one place.
Sometimes, she gets very sad, kind of depressed even, and recoils into her own shell, which means she hardly even makes contact with another human being. However, this never lasts long because she loves other people and loves company. More often than not, she uses these periods to create.
She has strong ideals but doesn't like getting into discussions about them (in fact, she doesn't like getting into discussions about anything, especially anything serious), and she doesn't have a religious or political affiliation simply because she feels nothing fits her completely.
Eve is very girly but she can be sexy when she wants to, provided she's in that state of mind. She's very sweet to those she thinks deserve her affection, but is quick to despise and ignore those who have crossed her at least once. Eve's also very flattering to most people around her, she knows her opinion tends to count and she can't bear buzz kills, so she tries her hardest to keep people happy around her at all times. However, she's also very pretentious, self-centered, and an elitist of sorts. She can't bear "boring" people and if someone hasn't got anything she considers special about them, she'll waste no time with them, and she's very vocal about this.
Eve doesn't like surprises or beating around the bush; she is direct without being rude and she likes it when people are the same way towards her. She's moderately sensitive and has a big heart.

Special Skills/Abilities: Painting, of course, and writing.

Personal Weaknesses:
Eve cannot help being very pretentious most of the time. Let's face it, she's had her confidence built at a time most of us have it shot down, and has kept the curve going strongly upwards from then on. Of course this doesn't sit right with a lot of people. She's as disliked as she is liked, but she tends to block this part out – in her own little world, not a lot of people really matter.

Apart from her little brother, she is very detached from the rest of her family, and she doesn't really have friends. Well, she does, but not for long, because she's soon looking for something else, something they apparently can't give her, and stops calling or coming by. Because of the way she is, she's always on the move, always on the "run" and she doesn’t really make time for anyone else. Her little brother, however, understands this, understands her, and always welcomes her with a big hug. However, he's the only one who does, and nobody knows for how much longer.
Other people's feelings or opinions barely ever register with her, and she's bad at not letting it show – in fact she doesn't pretend like she cares, even. Obviously, she tends to be hurtful in this way, and this fact, allied with all of the above, makes it hard for Eve to have anyone to count on in the long run, true friends are inexistent.
Eve is very impulsive, sometimes too much. She doesn't think, she doesn't weigh the pros and cons of getting into a situation before actually getting into it, and there is no way of convincing her to do so. She is like a little kid in front of an amusement park – she runs towards what she wants to try, and doesn't look back.
Part of her way of life, is to try anything at least once. This means that Eve usually indulges in vice and promiscuity without much thought about possible repercussions. Not that she doesn't protect herself properly (she's impulsive but not stupid), but she just cannot be happy with simply that, she always has to incessantly search for more, which might, eventually, become problematic. It already is – her last year of college she barely made it because of the amount of hangovers, sicknesses and mornings she woke up somewhere far away from her dorm room.
Overall, Eve's greatest weakness, although it may not seem like it at first, is that she's not a very good person, and however long it takes for people to notice that fact, they do.

Personal Strengths:
She is very talented and driven, and whatever she does, she never deters from painting more, writing more, and trying to be better at both.

Eve adapts very easily to any environment and situation, and always finds a way to make the best of it; thus, she is always well.

Eve is very good at striking up conversations and is very outgoing and friendly. Thus, when in trouble, it's good to have her around. She is nice and accessible which usually makes people open up and trust her easily at first impression, maybe even make things easier for her and whoever she's with.

Sexuality: Heterosexual but has dabbled and will again

ETC: Owns a respectable collection of sunglasses.
Can't afford originals, but has got a lot of art prints, mostly from allposters.com

I DECK - 1055 - Charites

Eve's room is based upon the finer things in life - or rather, the finer qualities in people. The Charites, also known as the Graces, were three goddesses of grace, beauty, adornment, mirth, festivity, dance and song - not to mention a handful of lesser Charites to preside over many other pleasures in life. If nothing else, this room is comfortable. There are dark-wood floors and off-white stucco walls through-out, so as not to take away from many pieces of art around the room representing the Charites. While many of the other rooms focus on mosaic and painting, this room has more sculptures, as well as painted vases. The main room has a couch and two armchairs, all comfy and overstuffed and upholstered in white cotton. There is a smooth, round coffee table between the couch and the flat-screen TV. The balcony doors are covered with thin, white cotton curtains.

The bathroom would have little of note if it weren't for the fact that many of the tiles in the shower and tub have been painted in painstaking detail, all to depict the Charites at work.

The decorating scheme continues into the bedroom, which has a computer desk, white upholstered computer chair, and queen-sized bed in a carved frame and bamboo headboard, decked out in Egyptian cotton linens.
