i love plotting and brainstorming with people. i adore having my character grow in real time in chats, small threads, and group events. i am absolutely okay with any and all ic tags, starters, random winged posts, as long as they adhere to my preferences listed above and are in rp rooms. i do not like to rp in dms, walls, or gpms.

# data[].attributes.body
i do not like godmodding, metagaming, or assuming things about my characters that are not true. if you do this, i will not continue to write with you.

i do not appreciate assumptions that i am disinterested simply because i have not responded to dms within a certain timeframe. please understand that i do work as a nurse and am always busy.

as far as victoria goes, i am very excited to write with the muns here!

she is a very headstrong woman with little patience for bullshit. due to this, it will be hard to approach certain, more mature topics with her- smut is more than likely not something i will be partaking in with her.

with that being said, i am open to headcanoning it if it fits the plotline or fading to black.

hi, i'm lexie.

i am 23 and love to write! i tend to be a little timid when it comes to more descriptive places like this one, but i am determined to do my best to face my fears.

fair warning, i am extremely dyslexic and sometimes mess up my spelling, word format, and placement. i will always try to double-check my work before posting, but please be patient with me.

Now at fifty eight, Victoria is beginning to understand herself more clearly. She still sings, but she chooses songs that feel more personal to her, while meeting her parent's expectations. She still attends events, but she notices more about the people around her and how they see her. She’s learning what she wants beyond her parents expectations.

The world still sees her as the Midnight Rose; beautiful, elegant, and distant... but slowly, she is finding her own direction, one that lets her enjoy who she is without feeling trapped by who she’s supposed to be.

# data[].attributes.body
Behind the scenes, Victoria often felt alone. She loved beautiful things, loved music, and loved the quiet nights on her balcony- but none of it replaced real connection. She had freedom, but only within the limits her parents set for her. She could choose things, but only from the options they approved.

She smiled easily in public, but in private she wished for more honesty, more warmth, more moments where she was treated like a person rather than an image. Even surrounded by admirers, she found herself struggling with loneliness she didn’t know how to explain.

# data[].attributes.body
When Victoria first stepped into high society, it happened quietly, but people noticed her quickly. She carried herself well, spoke gently, and looked like she belonged in every elegant room she entered. Soon enough, her name spread, and she became someone people talked about.

Her presence at events became important. If Victoria attended, the event gained status. Younger vampires looked up to her, and older ones watched her closely, although she never faltered. Rather than surrounding herself with those her age, she became known as the “Midnight Rose,” a presence admired from a distance, but never given the chance to be fully understood by anyone.

# data[].attributes.body
Victoria loved to sing even before she knew how much it would matter. Her parents noticed her natural talent quickly and took it as a sign that she would be the one to finally carry on the nightingale legacy. Her voice was natural, soft at first, and then stronger as she grew older. Soon she was surrounded by lessons and rehearsals.

Although she loved singing, the pressure around it sometimes made it hard to enjoy. She had moments when singing felt like freedom, especially when she was alone. But on other days, it felt like something she owed to everyone else. She learned to balance both feelings, even if it wasn’t always easy.

Victoria Nightingale entered the world as an unexpected blessing to a lineage already steeped in myth. For centuries, the Nightingales had carried a reputation for voices that could command attention and beauty that set the standard at unattainable heights. By the time she was born, long after her parents had resigned themselves to a life without an heir, the arrival of a daughter felt almost unreal. She was spoken of before she could speak herself, her existence a spark of fresh gossip and fascination among those who followed her family’s legacy.

From the moment she opened her eyes, Victoria was treated like something rare. An heir born in a time when heirs were nearly impossible to come by. Her parents saw in her the continuation of their story, the proof that their influence would stretch into centuries beyond themselves. She was loved, undeniably, but that love came threaded with expectation, forming the first quiet shape of the life that would follow.

Victoria grew up inside the nightingale estate, placed right atop a large hill in the upper arts district of Seoul. Her childhood was filled with quiet rooms, soft music, and tutors who taught her everything from language to posture. Every part of her early life was chosen carefully, and nothing about her world was accidental.

Life inside the estate was very limiting. She rarely got to explore freely, and every outing was planned around her parents standards. She learned early on how to act, how to speak politely, and how to carry herself like someone who mattered. People often thought she was confident by nature, not realizing she had been trained to be that way.
