Name: Mallory Chorus

Nickname: Mal, any number of Firefly jokes regarding Captain Mal you can think of.... <<

Age: 8

Birthday: February 22

Sign: Pisces

Gemstone: Amethyst

Blood Type: AB+

Fav. Food: Savory Noodles, carrots (A CHILD THAT LIKES VEGGIES!), dried meats

Hated Food: Chinese Take-Out is really kind of gross, because it's so greasy.

School: Homeschooled

Hobbies:
Tea
Mallory is a Lady and wants to be treated such. As such she enjoys leisurely lady activities, like.... Tea. Tea calms the savage beast and it is not uncommon for her to be found sipping at a tea party with small sandwiches and watching others or engaging her plushies in polite conversation, or her twin if she can rope her fraternal twin Mira into things. She also finds tea is a way to steal time with her elders, including her big sisters, parents, grandparents, and so on. She's also very slowly learning the taste of multiple teas and how to identify, prepare, and serve them.

Shopping
Mallory likes to look pretty, and so she likes to go out and get pretty things, like accessories, and the like. She loves to ensure she has the newest nick-knacks, toys, and so forth, and when allowance day comes, off she goes to the boutiques and shops to ensure she's still the best looking girl there is. Her shopping preferences usually lean towards accessories, jewelry, and make-up, especially glittery make-up, but she won't hesitate to try a new fad or trend if everyone says it's the popular thing.

Singing
Because Mal refuses self defense courses and her parents insist she develop some kind of skill, Mal chose singing as a favorite extra-curricular for her lessons outside homeschooling, and... She's good at it! It's a genuine passion, and she sounds like a little bell. While she isn't some superstar or even the best singer, she does enjoy singing as a hobby and fancies the idea of becoming a superstar singer at some point.

Virtues:

Polite
Mallory is a very polite girl in her own right. She minds her pleases and thank yous, and speaks cordially and softly, rarely raising her voice-- she doesn't need to, anyhow. When one first meets Mallory, they see a quiet, soft-spoken, well mannered girl greeting them with a hello, and she never forgets to use "Mr.", "Ms.", "Mrs.", or any appropriate title for them. She asks nicely for things, and minds that she never loses face or acts rudely unless manners no longer work.

Quiet
Mallory has learned to be quiet, sweet, and soft-spoken. You catch more flies with honey, and Mal practices this to a T. She speaks quietly and smooth, and doesn't often raise her voice-- unless absolutely required, she never screams and her voice is sometimes hard to hear in a busy place. She tries keeping herself quiet too, and does not make much noise moving about. While this means she's accidentally snuck up on people, she's also difficult to be angry at at all for trying to be a lady.

Patient
Mal is very patient. She can wait for things easily and does not mind waiting at all. Good things to those who wait, after all, and Mal is the sweet, polite child biding her time until things can go her way. Lines don't trouble her, and she can stay put watching boring things for hours. While many things try her patience, they do not often make her lose it, so when she does, it is rare and usually unexpected. Because of her patience, many find her to be a good natured thing.

Flaws:

Vain
Mal thinks she's the best creature placed on this planet. She fancies herself the prettiest, the smartest-- certainly better in every way than anyone except possibly her fraternal twin sister. She thinks everyone else is just so poor and unfortunate, because they're so plain, dry, and boring, and typically she humors them and will be bright and polite and cheerful the entire time. All the time, though, she's a bit finicky, because her ego must be stroked, and she can be downright irritating to many.

Condescending
Mallory's manners are a good thing, they keep her from being chewed out for talking down to everyone outside of her family. This arrogant little child has a habit of leaning towards talking down to people, hiding it with manners and compliments. In reality, she's treating you like you're stupid, and like she pities you for it. Her tongue is only electroplated silver and she will usually only stop being condescending if she fancies you hers. Otherwise she will generally act like you're a stupid person. Because oif how patronizing she is, at times, it can be difficult to talk to her, mostly, because she probably won't take you seriously right away.

Spoiled Rotten
Mal is the center of her own world. She thinks of herself as perfect, and that she deserves everything she wants. She wants things, and she demands immediate gratification. While she won't throw a tantrum for it, Mal will not take no for an answer and she will wheedle and manipulate to get it. She has never known want, and she does not share toys or clothes, unless you are Miri, and you are not Miri. If she shares toys, she has to.... Really, she wants to have it all!


PHYSICAL DESCRIPTION

Eyes: Almond shaped-- Mallory takes after her mother, so they look slightly larger than your average Chinese child. She has albinism, and thus has no eye pigment naturally, exposing the blood vessels under. As a result, her eyes are pink or red.

Hair: Mallory has no natural colour to her hair, and so she has to get it died. Most often she dyes it black. Her hair is medium length and tied up in pigtails.

Face: Mal has a heart-shaped face, with a button nose and small mouth. Her skin has little to no pigment to it, so she only sunburns BADLY. Her ears are tiny with small studs in them bought by Daddy.

Clothes: Mallory requires long sleeves and skin coverage, as she burns easily due to her albinism. This does not, however, mean she's not fashionable. And by fashionable, we mean ruffles and dresses in dark colours. Because she cannot go out and hide her face, she usually has a parasol to shield her face a little bit, although not much.

Family, for clarification.

Father: William Chorus
Mallory's biological father, William is a soft spoken, gentle, kind man with a big heart and a bright smile. He's more than happy working in a robotics firm with his brother developing machines for car manufacturing, and while he doesn't need to work, he enjoys it and his large family immensely.

Father #2: Nathan Saito
Mallory's 'Other Daddy' and the third partner to Mallory's parents, as well as Ming Ju's biological father. Nate is the unmarried third partner to her parents and a... CREATIVE artist. Mallory loves him dearly as well.

Mother: Zhen Ling "Moricorm" Chorus
Mallory's mother. Ri keeps the family tightly together and operates and oversees many of her 'Baba's' North American businesses in a Multi-Million Dollar Trading Empire, and her own businesses. Ri is clever, sleek, and proud of all five of her girls, and extremely fierce when angered. Mallory is named for Ri's late mother, and Mal longs to be Mother's favorite.

Uncle: Elliot Chorus
Elliot lives with the family, though he sometimes goes out on a date. All night. Elliot can't say no to a pretty face or keep it zipped, and William constantly insists he probably has nieces or nephews he doesn't know about, which Elliot denies. Elliot is energetic, cheerful, and bouncy with far less fear than William. He works with William at their firm, though he sees no issues bringing the kids in to watch.

Sister: Amelia Chorus
The eldest of the Five Sisters, and the adult and Heiress apparent to over half of Ri's business, Mal is both jealous and adores her sister. She likes to settle in her sister's lap to read and cuddle, any time Amelia visits home from college. Big sister is fun!

Sister: Ming Ju Chorus
Mal's older sister Number Two. Ming Ju is Nathan's daughter with Ri, and shares her eldest sister's inheritance. Mallory adores Ming Ju and likes to go to her to play and cuddle and sit with. She is much less jealous of Ming Ju and thinks her sister is pretty.


Fraternal Twin: Miira Chorus
Miira, or Miri, is Mal's twin sister, named for their other grandmother. Miri is Mallory's sister, twin, and best friend. You do not harm Miri, Mal will hurt you. They do not look alike, because they are only fraternal twins, but Mal doesn't care. Miri is her sister, and Miri is Important and the only one as awesome as Mal. They do many things together.

Sister: Kabi Chorus
Mal's toddler sibling. Kabi is still learning the world and Mal isn't sure she likes the child yet. No longer the Baby, Mal finds her sister to be competition for her parents' affections and generally avoids her.

Servant: Jessica "Ithil" Shepard
Ri's servant, Ithil is an albino like Mal and Ri. Ithil is faithful to the family, and serves as Miri and Mal's teacher at home, preparing them for Crystal Academy, and there is no fleeping way anyone will prevent that.

Servant: Maki Inoue
Another family servant, Maki assists Amelia in her daily chores. A calm man whom immigrated from Japan as an infant, Maki seems to watch others. He seems to serve more security porpuses than note, and is often there quickly if anyone of the family comes into some kind of trouble and calls home.
