:: ADELE

● Adele
● Schipperke (purebred)
● A little less than a year old (she's a puppy)
● Female
● Stands 9” to her shoulder (not fully grown)

{Abilities} None, she’s just a dog.

{Strengths} ● Her size. She’s very little and therefore a small target. ● Her bite. Adele is, like mentioned, little but she packs a bite in her tiny jaws. Her teeth are very sharp and she doesn’t tend to let go. ● Her bark. Schipperkes were once bred as guard dogs and she’s developed an incredibly loud (and annoying bark.) It can be distracting, really, and if another has sensitive ears, they’ll feel it. ● Her energy. She has an incredible amount of energy in her small package and can keep it up for hours and hours. It’s another Schipperke-genetics thing.

{Weaknesses} ● Again, her size. Because she is tiny she doesn’t have the strength to overpower a larger foe and is reversely easy to overpower. ● Inexperience in a vague description. She’s not accustomed to fighting and isn’t terribly sure how to handle herself in that sort of situation. That being said, she’s also naïve and young/innocent so to speak and easily manipulated. ● She has high blood pressure. Too much excitement/stress/etc. can cause it to rise dangerously high and force her to pass out (it’s happened before). Usually when she gets engaged in bad drama or something of the sort, the pressure goes right to her head and causes an awful migraine. But that’s just what usually happens, in extreme cases a lot of things can happen including heart-attacks/strokes and others, however this has not happened and those are side-effects of characters with high blood pressure.

{Personality} The most vulgar but still proper French dog you’ll meet, let’s just start with that. She loves swearing like a sailor but still keeps her speech dainty and elegant and proper. She may something similar to "I beg your motherfucking pardon!" Adele is an excited little package of black fur. Her breed is known for being full of energy and their tendency to be involved in just about everything. She wants to know what’s what and usually finds out one way or another. She’s very outgoing and enjoys to talk and talk and talk. Being from a line of show dogs, Adele is also fiercely competitive; she can’t stand to lose and won’t back down from any bitch. She just doesn’t know when to shut her trap and thinks she’s pretty much better (and prettier) than anyone. She’s ridiculously judgmental and holds grudges, as she takes things very personally. But still, Adele is nice to others and keeps most of her bitchiness to herself unless someone uncorks it first. She’s incredibly sarcastic and loves to bluff. Although she speaks with a dignified intelligence, she actually doesn’t have much brains; average intelligence hello. That all being said, Adele also has a secret passion: love. She has such a deep interest in romance (and it’s not just because she’s French). She loves having heart-to-hearts with anyone and everyone and just talking and daydreaming about love and all that gooey goodness.

{History (shortened)} She was born in France from a long line of show dogs. Her life was very posh/pampered and everything and she was a stunning show dog herself, ranked top five in the world. Her cameo/bow were a gift from her Madame and mistress when they were in Italy. They were on a roll of shows starting from their home in Paris through ought Europe and ending in Spain. While en route in Russia they were mugged and although evidence is against it, Adele believes her Madame was not killed with their drivers. Adele and majority of her mistress’s things were stolen and taken to a back-alley trade shack. Being purebred dog, she had value and was put into the back room with some of her mistress’s things. There she met a parrot who helped her escape. From there she traveled, looking for a way to get back to her Madame and with not-so-nice suggestions from others find herself in the Ukraine and further to Pripyat.
