Welcome to Gaia! ::

Lorelei Carson Driscoll
My favorite pen ink is #387C44.

Career :: Rock Singer

Birthday :: May 31, 1990. She's a 19-year-old Gemini.

Height:: 5'9"
Weight:: 149, slight hourglass and slightly larger than the usual woman overall.
Ethnicity :: Lorelei is Irish (despite her German given name), but born in America and has little accent as a result.
Eye Color :: Her eyes are a deep pine green, but Lorelei often wears brown shadow and plum or brown liner when she wants to make a good first impression.
Hair Style/Color :: Lorelei's hair is currently a bright auburn mess. Its many waves and flipped-out texture make it hard to manage her slightly grown-out bob, including her bangs, which are close to reaching her nose. Being a precious item to Lorelei, her older sister Stefanie's moon hair-clip is almost always worn to keep the bangs out of the left side of her face.

Attire :: The girl's clothing usually comes from places much like, and sometimes including, Hot Topic. However, she sometimes modifies or draws on clothing that she thinks could use a bigger dash of unique. Lorelei is also not afraid to admit to being a gamer girl, so there are times that game-related insignia is worn. Surprisingly, bright colors are the order of the day most of the time, especially when mixed with black. Both of Lorelei's ears have a cartilage and lobe piercing apiece; the cartilage earrings are both silver studs, and the lobe piercings do not match: the right ear has a gold lock-based charm, and the left ear a gold key-based charm. Accessories and jewelry are Lorelei's favorite aspect of dressing, so there's always at least a few; her favorite non-earring accessories are mystical-looking pendant necklaces.

Personality :: Nineteen-year-old Lorelei's creativity knows only a few bounds - she wants to learn how to song-write and has some problems with that aspect. However, despite the way she dresses, Lorelei is a shy, easily embarrassed recluse; the few friends she has (and tends to keep loyally) are the ones who implanted the idea in her head to head out to the Walk of Fame Audition after witnessing a really nicely executed (and unexpected) vocal performance while playing those band-based music games. Her head sometimes flies to the clouds as well; how many female rockers do we know that are not pop-based? It was always a dream to sing songs like the ones famous rock groups made; an even bigger dream was to be immortalized through her voice being in a video game theme song.
The above, however, is a medicated Lorelei. She takes low doses of antidepressant medicine twice a day to keep her emotions at bay; it used to be much worse, but you'll notice that Lorelei minus her medicine for over a day is a very weepy girl that throws pity parties. This is part of the reason she is reclusive; how many people want to be friends with someone depressed enough that they need medical help with it?

History :: Nineteen-year-old Lorelei was a middle child, born to Mr. and Mrs. Driscoll in a boring town with one older sibling: Stefanie (Rigel, her younger brother, was not to come until after she left for college). The boring town had a life most trudged through, and the hospital was pretty basic for what the Driscolls would need for then-11-year-old Stefanie - cancer was setting in for her, and the local hospital was ill-equipped. The Driscolls had to live with family members when the older ones learned that Stefanie was not going to live for much more than a few weeks.

Then-five-year-old Lorelei had met with Stefanie for the last time, although Lorelei was too young to understand what her older sister meant: giving her younger sister the crescent moon hair-clip she always worn until she 'shaved her head,' Stefanie told Lorelei that someday, even though she could not live with her younger sister then, she would come and always stay with her so long as she still possessed the hair-clip.
What the elder child meant was, in more direct terms before being sugarcoated to one who wouldn't understand, "I'm going to die, and this is my most prized possession; please keep it and always remember me." Eventually, Stefanie passed on; Lorelei did not attend the funeral due to her age, but when she was six, and the family visited her sister's gravestone together, she knew what happened. The girl closed up to anyone but her parents for many years; school became a hassle and then the difficulty spread to life in general.

At twelve years old, when Lorelei was still in 'hiding,' her psychologist told her that running away would not ease the pain, and suggested that she use art or writing to express her feelings (while taking medication, of course). Like a moth to a flame, Lorelei took to drawing as she listened to music, quietly humming along, eventually singing along. The music that, when combined with memories, can stir up emotions and inspire people... Lorelei wanted to be that person, the one who did such. It withdrew itself, though, since she was told about the difficulty of getting into show business, and Lorelei kept up with life, gradually becoming more cheerful and needing less medicine to stay that way, eventually ending counseling sessions.
Six years later, Lorelei graduated high school. From a job she decided to get before graduation, she bought herself the game 'Rock Band,' including the controllers. While at college as an undeclared major, Lorelei lived in an off-campus two-bedroom apartment: there were four people including herself there. In a session of Rock Band, with Lorelei on vocals, the other players were shocked enough to have lost their focus on their controllers (except for the drummer, who was a music major). After that, the guitar and bass players had said that she should go for a music major like their roommate. A few days later, the drummer had taken an audition ad off the bulletin board for 'Walk of Fame Talent Agencies,' showing it to Lorelei and suggesting that she should try to use that larynx of hers for more than game bragging rights. Guitar and bass agreed, and Lorelei (accompanied by the drummer) was going on to audition.
