Character’s Name: Arabesque Al-Sayid (Ara for short)

Character’s LJ: gilt_arabesque

Character’s Appearance: Ara is quite striking to look at, and some would consider her a glamour queen. Long hair so black it’s almost purple and it hangs down to mid-back even when it’s pulled back in a tight braid, dark olive skin, black eyes. Stands around 5’7”, slender hourglass figure... Erm… well endowed. Slender fingers with long always freshly manicured nails. Always always always dresses in the latest fashions (read here: expensive fashions).

Items the Military Specifically Confiscated from this Character (i.e., weapons, magical items, pets): Works for the military

What Universe This Character is From (i.e., /Star Trek/, /Doctor Who, Ghostbusters/, etc.): Current Universe. Ara is a Specialist in the Military, and is a Minder at the "Oaklyn College" campus.

General History (You do not need to go into a great amount of detail here, just enough to give a background for the character): Ara was born October 31, 1986 into a very privileged lifestyle… Her parents were from a large Arabic family, although born in the United States they still had ties back home.   Her father is a breeder of thoroughbred Arabian stallions, in Upper New York state, stallions that he trains to fight for whoever is on their rider. He then sells to the military to use in the more rugged regions of the world.   After all who could win against an angry horse with an armed rider?   Her mother is a top selling model, and has inherited her glamorous looks.

Even though Ara has led a privileged life, she still insisted on joining the Army after graduating from a private school, at the 'tender' age of 18. As she put it, 'Someone needs to make sure they’re working our horses correctly.' When the military offered her a chance to further her education, while also still working for them, Ara took it with glee.  The woman had already been promoted to Specialist First Class by the time she was 20. She’s been thinking about pursuing Officer’s training, and knows there are some classes she should take in order to accomplish the goal. Now she’s an Dormitory RA for the 5^th floor at Bitterroot Hall. Occupies room 502, a 2 girl dorm room..which in her estimation is a bit much but can be dealt with.

Anything else you think the other players need to know? (i.e., links to information on the character, pictures of the character, etc.) Ara is taking a rather full course of Chemistry, Applied Mechanics, Physics, History, and a few other courses. Not that it taxes her, since the young woman is quite intelligent.

A writing sample: Show us how you see this character thinking.

Frowning in irritation at her Oak Phone, Ara sat back from her dorm room desk and sighed rather petulantly. Why were they paging her… Again? Didn’t they know she had to study for the Chemistry exam? Yes, yes, she knew where Winry Rockbell was, at least Ara thought she knew. The brat was in bed just down the hall… yes? no? Yes, yes, definitely a… maybe. Well, damn. NOW her brain would start nagging her about that, until she went to check.

Sighing yet again, the woman rose from her desk, and just by chance peeked out the window in time to see Winry vanishing across the commons with… with…"Oh God she’s with that Ed fellow. This makes the 4^th time so far this week. If those two are fooling around, or she remembers…"

Clipping the military issue snub nose to its thigh holster, Ara lowered her silk caftan and checked herself in the mirror. Yes everything in place… oh well a nice evening stroll across the commons would do nicely in clearing a college student’s overworked mind. Perfect cover actually.
