HEIGHT. 5'4"
WEIGHT. rather skinny
HAIR. Effie's hair is naturally a light/medium brown color. For the longest time she didn't do anything to it besides straightening it every day, which is something she still does. Almost five months ago, she bleached most of her bangs, and has kept up with that. Month ago she dyed her hair black, with the bleached bangs still in place. But she died it a vibrant red a week ago.
EYES. It is a mystery to her where her eye color came from. They are a pale jade color, which is a color that neither her parents or brother have. It's quite possible that her mother cheated on her father, and Effie honestly wouldn't care. When it comes to wearing makeup, she almost always wears eyeliner, eyeshadow, and mascara.
DISTINGUISHING FEATURES. her nose is pierced, and that's as far as it goes for tattoos or piercings.

LIKES. speaking estonian to people who don't know it, pokemon, movie marathons, reading, music.
DISLIKES. the plastics. snobby people. people who don't like her.
STRENGTHS. art, school,
WEAKNESSES. her brother, how nervous she can get, bit too trusting, broken.
FEARS. her father, losing her brother, never being able to fully escape her father.
GOALS. fully escaping her father, maybe go back to estonia and visit one day.
PERSONALITY.School has always seemed to be very easy for her. She excells in all of her classes, and takes a few advanced ones, and was told she was gifted when it came to learning languages. But she will never brag about any of her smarts, and often tries to hide it.
Pokemon was quite literally her favorite show growing up. She was a big Pokemon fan, and a bit of a pokemon nerd as well. Partying has never been something that has seemed even mildly attractive, and she would much rather act childish with her more childish friends.
She is one of those people who don't seem to have the ability to sit still for more than thirty seconds at a time. And while she isn't a person that constantly is in your face, she does have her moments when she is like that. For the most part, though, Effie can rarely sit still and, even when she's standing she tends to bounce from foot to foot. Her love of energy drinks probably doesn't help much.
Despite everything that's happened to her, Effie is insanely sweet. She is the type of person to have a lot of sympathy for people, and is generally nice to everyone she meets. Effie absolutely adores hugs, and often gives out a bunch to her friends.
Place her around someone she likes, or in an unfamiliar situation, she will start to stutter and babble. She'll blush as well, and when she realizes she's blushing, she'll cover her face up and try to hide. She may even try to run off. No matter what, you can count on her to get really nervous and shy at times.
A good way to describe the Effie that no one sees is broken. She's a broken doll, secretly crumbling behind the walls she's built up. But you wouldn't know that by just looking at her. She has learned how to hide it well, and replaces the pain with a smile when the time to go out in public comes.

HISTORY.Effie and Ezekiel were born in Estonia on August 15th, just after one in the morning. Ez was the oldest twin, if only by about seven and a half minutes. The two twins were raised in Estonia for about two years before the small little family made the move to America.
Their father was already an alcoholic, but the move to America made it considerably worse. He looked for jobs, of course, needing a way to support his family, and he did manage to actually get a few. But the jobs never lasted long, as he was nothing but lazy and a slacker.
The life the twins had at home wasn't very good for them. With their father being a loud and abusive drunk almost all of the time, they often tried to stay over at friends' houses so they would not receive the beatings he gave out. The twins had learned early on that their mother did nothing, often being beaten herself, and that they were all each other had.
Any bruises they got were usually in places that could be covered up by clothing, and their mother taught Effie early on how to cover up the more noticable bruises with makeup. The life they had at home was a secret that was not to be shared with anyone, not even other family members. Effie came to fear her father, especially when Ezekiel started to defy him and got beatings worse than before.
Once their mother ran off, the abuse stopped, if only for a short while. The man that was their father would drink until he was asleep, or about ready to pass out. Effie often would help him to his bedroom, always at the protests of Ezekiel. The twins were happy for those first few months, and they were hoping that the abuse wouldn't start up again. But, it did.
When they were about twelve years old, they finally were able to catch a break. While in one of his drunken states, their father attempted to push himself onto Effie. Luckily, Ezekiel had arrived and managed to stop their father. Of course, hitting the old man in the head with a pot ---- which apparently had been the closest object at the time ---- might not have been the brightest idea. But it got the twins away from him, as they immediately ran away and stayed with their aunt for a solid three years.
About the time of their fifteenth birthday, their father reappeared in their lives, claiming that he had been sober for two years and such. Their naive aunt happily gave the twins back to him, and the twins were severely upset. Their father had been lying, something they figured out quite soon.
