Rosalyn F. D'Airelle

Early Life
Born the eldest child of Junius and Lucille D'Airelle, of the high-profile D'Airelle family, Rosalyn was raised to join the human Richemont Coven, a group of magic-users that serve King Richemont with the ultimate goal of driving the demonic clans away for good.

Being the eldest child born to strict parents, Rosalyn grew up with a lot of pressure on her, due to her parents' high expectations of her. The family being among the upper class only added to the expectations placed on Rosalyn, her also receiving the most attention out of her siblings throughout her childhood.

Early Betrothment, Traumatic Childhood
At the age of 9, Rosalyn was betrothed to a boy named Théofroy Alaire, who at the time was 12 years old. Rosalyn was terrified of him, not wanting to marry him.

Only a year later, Lucille died of what was believed to childbed fever (at the time a rare disease affecting women postpartum) after giving birth to Rosalyn's youngest brother, Alvis. These events took a toll on the entire family, especially Rosalyn and Junius, the latter turning to alcohol to cope. As a result, Junius became worse than he already was to Rosalyn with Lucille.

Another year later, Rosalyn's brother, Herry, died at age 4. On that same year, Junius remarried to woman named Lucetta Chenery, Lucille's cousin. Lucetta was no better of a mother than Lucille was, which did not help Rosalyn's mental health one bit. In fact, Rosalyn began to develop a split personality as a result of the events of the last few years and the way she was treated in general.

Joining the Richemont Coven
At 16, Rosalyn signed up to join the Richemont Coven, initially as a handmaiden to a member of the Richemont Court until she was to get married. Rosalyn was gifted in magical ability, but did not show her full capabilities to anyone in the coven. That was until Rosalyn saved a high ranking member of the Richemont Court from an assassination attempt by using a powerful blast of magic. The court member, in Rosalyn's debt, offered to grant her almost anything she wished, within reason. Rosalyn requested to be made a true member of the coven, removing her from work as a handmaiden and allowing her to train and use magic to her full potential. While Junius was very displeased by Rosalyn's request, calling for the coven to deny it, the Richemonts fulfilled the request. From that point on, Rosalyn became one of few sorceresses in the coven.

Marriage to Théofroy Alaire
After her 17th birthday, Rosalyn unwillingly married Théofroy Alaire, who had changed since their last meeting 8 years prior, but nonetheless Rosalyn did not love. She found a new enjoyment of her independence, only to have it torn away from her by the marriage.

Rosalyn kept her position in the coven, but fell pregnant two years later (now 19 years old) with Théofroy's child. She gave birth to a baby girl, who she named Mariette Alarie.

Mission to the Kujisaki Clan
Years later, Rosalyn (now 25), along with a few others from the Coven were sent to the Kujisaki Clan to investigate their magic rituals and cult-like ways. Of particular interest to King Richemont was a 'portal to nowhere'.

Taking on the name 'Kazane Ibuka', upon initiation into the clan, she partook in many rituals for the Kujisaki Clan over the span of three months in order to gain the trust of the clan. These rituals damaged Rosalyn's soul and built on top of her childhood trauma, subsequently allowing an entirely new alternate personality to emerge, Rosalyn's fake alias becoming a 'real' person who took over her body, that had lost her memory due to becoming corrupted.

Rosalyn and Kazane fought for control of Rosalyn's body, until they would soon find out about a mysterious ritual, frequently used but not originating from the Kujisaki Clan, which opened a portal to a seemingly infinite abyss. When Kazane tried investigating it, she was pushed into the portal...

The 'Trash Dimension', Finding the Forbidden Texts
Rosalyn eventually found herself in a mountain of waste, in an entirely new dimension. Surrounded by waste, Rosalyn quickly figured out that the portal was in fact used to dispose of the clan's garbage. How she was going to survive there until she could escape was the next question.

Rosalyn became energy-deprived and starved, Kazane taking over again in order for her to survive. She wandered the trash-covered plains, coming across a set of magical books. These were forbidden magical texts. Seduced by the power of the texts, Kazane began studying these texts while living off leftover food and drinks disposed of by the Kujisaki Clan and other clans.

While surviving in a dimension of trash was difficult, Kazane developed survival skills that both helped herself and Rosalyn, and Kazane was able to harness the forbidden magic within the texts she found and even found some more along the way.

367 Years Later, As 'Heloise'
Eventually, just short of a year later in the trash dimension's time, Rosalyn returned home, albeit roughly 367 years after her disappearance, in the year 1852.

It took time for Rosalyn to adjust to the time period, having to turn to Kazane again, earning herself money by any means possible, as the Richemont Coven, along with the Richemont bloodline, were extinct by this time. It was not long until she took on a new alias, under the name 'Heloise Galante'. She met a man named Cyril Kinsey, only months later marrying him, after concluding there was no returning to her old life. 'Heloise' would become the name of a pre-existing personality of Rosalyn's, that never previously came out and took control of Rosalyn's body. Cyril and Heloise had their first child, a girl named Merrilyn shortly after their marriage, and two years later, they had another girl, named Elianna. Throughout this time, Rosalyn's mental state grew worse due to the new environment, learning to use Kazane's magic to cope.

Abandoning the Kinseys, Leaving Elianna at the House of Lisanthus
Heloise's marriage to Cyril was very dysfunctional, due to her and Rosalyn's combined unpredictable character. Heloise was kind and slow to anger, but Rosalyn had quite a temper and often didn't think things through. Rosalyn, sickened of being stuck in the marriage with a man she believed to be dangerous to herself and with two kids, left them. Rosalyn, however, also took Elianna (who was 3 at the time) with her. She was not able to take Merrilyn as she had accidentally awoken Cyril, leaving her no time to take Merrilyn as well. Rosalyn left Elianna at the House of Lisanthus, and ran as far from the Kinseys as she could, before Heloise took over again. Rosalyn did intend on returning to take Merrilyn as well, but found herself lost as a result of her clashing personalities.

Searching for Elianna and Merrilyn
Rosalyn found herself in the other side of the country, with little memory of what she (or Heloise) had done. She would spend the next few decades searching for her children with the intent of gaining custody of them, and eventually marrying them off to men of her own choosing. Rosalyn's other personalities would only draw her further away.

In 1891 - 1892, Rosalyn found Merrilyn, intending to put her to into an arranged marriage. After meeting Merrilyn's husband, she had a change of heart, deciding not to tamper with their relationship. Rosalyn turned her attention to her younger daughter, Elianna, after finding out she had been in a relationship with another woman, named Cosette Badeaux. Outraged, she found Elianna and began arranging her into a marriage with a man she believed to be suitable for her, out of her extremely traditional beliefs.

Meeting and Dating Isabelle
Initially in an attempt to distract Rosalyn from Elianna, her and Cosette set Rosalyn up on a blind date with a woman named Isabelle Joestar. Rosalyn did not see any chance of her falling in love, but accepted over a deal on her control on Elianna's life. Initially, the two did not connect and ended up fighting due to their clashing beliefs, but Rosalyn, despite everything, kept the date going. Though slow to understand, Rosalyn listened to Isabelle's views, becoming 'enlightened' (in her words) to the views of the more modern, progressive world.

Isabelle and Rosalyn began dating sometime later. Rosalyn began opening up to Isabelle about her apparent memory loss, being able to piece together her alternate personalities. Over time, Rosalyn became more reliant and clingy to Isabelle, questioning whether Isabelle loved her or not. Unknown to her, Isabelle fell in love with one of her alters, known as Theodore.

Trouble with Theodore
Theodore identified as a male, trapped in a female (Rosalyn's) body. Isabelle wanted to help him, going to lengths of taking part in a ritual to alter Rosalyn's body to make Theodore feel fully 'male'.

The sudden change messed with Rosalyn and her other alters, quickly turning Rosalyn into a completely different, terrified woman trapped in the wrong body when she re-emerged.

Rosalyn would eventually find out Isabelle was behind the ritual and that she loved Theodore, deeming it as Isabelle cheating on her. Heartbroken, Rosalyn slapped Isabelle in the face and kicked her out of her house.

Presumed Death of Elianna
In 1892, Elianna disappeared, being presumed dead after breaking up with her girlfriend, Cosette. Shattered by this, Rosalyn left England for Japan to spend some time there alone for her to grieve. After spending 5 years there, Rosalyn found Elianna, convincing her to come back to England with her...

Personality
Rosalyn's personalities are made up of a host (that being Rosalyn herself) and her 'alters' (alternate personalities). Most of Rosalyn's alters manifested in her childhood, though some manifested a while after. She is aware of some alters, and unaware of others. All of Rosalyn's alters can come out at any time completely unnoticed, as they often mimic Rosalyn while in public, depending on their situation. They all have different ages (compared to Rosalyn's biological age), sexual orientations, mental states, tastes in food and fashion as well as (in some cases) medical conditions. Some alters can use magic, while others have limited or no abilities in magic at all. Rosalyn can communicate with her alters internally, but refuses to.

Rosalyn (Host)
From childhood, Rosalyn was quick-thinking and reckless. She had high ambitions, but often gave up on them quickly due to the strictness of her parents. Rosalyn began experiencing amnesia from when her first alters emerged to help her cope with the abuse she received. Over time, Rosalyn developed memory loss as a result of her and Kazane's magic, forgetting most of her childhood and becoming blinded by bitterness and anger. She developed prideful and selfish ideals to hide her problems with her alters. Rosalyn was once a very submissive person with very little hope, but secretly enjoyed her independence greatly.

Though she doesn't act like it, Rosalyn loves her children dearly. She greatly misses her first daughter, Mariette, knowing that she had not been there for her for most of her life and that Mariette would have died 100s of years before she came back from the trash dimension. Rosalyn's controlling demeanor over Merrilyn and Elianna in particular derived from this, becoming separated from them too for decades. Rosalyn is very proficient in magic.

Azelle Robertssen
Azelle first emerged when Rosalyn was 7 years old. Azelle speaks in a childlike way, but has the same level of intelligence as Rosalyn, being able to understand complex concepts, unlike a normal child. Azelle acts very much like Rosalyn did as a child - curious, courageous and selfless. Azelle holds the memories of Rosalyn's childhood abuse, possessing PTSD-like symptoms as a result of it.

Azelle does not age, in fact, she does not know when her birthday was. She cannot use magic. Being Rosalyn's first alter, she is well aware of Azelle.

Theodore Hipkin
Theodore emerged when Rosalyn was 9 years old, after she first met Théofroy Alaire. Theodore was originally the embodiment of every man and boy Rosalyn met in her childhood - essentially the stereotypical male in her view. Theodore's character changed over time, one major change being when Rosalyn met and married Cyril Kinsey.

Theodore is an organised and tidy man, if not a nit-picky one. He has a bit of a temper and tends to get into fights. He was once a very traditional person, but became more progressive over time. Theodore is selfless and very loyal to those close to him.

Theodore is 9 years younger than Rosalyn. He can use magic to a limited extent. Rosalyn was made aware of Theodore later in her life, after finding herself in male clothes upon regaining control of her body on numerous occasions.

Lucille D'Airelle
Based off Rosalyn's mother, Lucille D'Airelle, with some added traits from her stepmother, Lucetta, Lucille is the embodiment of Rosalyn's abusive mother figures. While Junius was at one point quite physically abusive of Rosalyn and her siblings, Lucille had a much greater influence on Rosalyn growing up. She manifested in Rosalyn at 9 years old, shortly after the original Lucille died.

Lucille is strict, demanding and quite emotionally abusive. She has a habit of snapping between moods, making her unpredictable at times. One minute, Lucille will be kind and sympathetic, the next, she is condescending and cold. She is aware that the times have changed, but nonetheless upholds her traditional views. Lucille is aware she died, believing she was brought back in the present day to guide Rosalyn and her children into their 'ideal lives'. Lucille does have an influence on Rosalyn's actions, without her even knowing.

Lucille is 22 years older than Rosalyn, the original Lucille giving birth to her and Rosemarie at 22 years old. She can use a limited amount of magic. Rosalyn can hear Lucille's voice, but is unaware that she can take control of her body.

Heloise Galante
Initially, Heloise was nothing but a nameless, disembodied voice in Rosalyn's head, manifested when Rosalyn was 9. She was very aware and conscious of Rosalyn's other alters and how to manage them. Heloise remained an internal alter until Rosalyn emerged from the trash dimension, when she finally took on the name Heloise Galante and took control to guide Rosalyn through adjusting to the more modern world, while fighting off Kazane to maintain control. Heloise is very motherly, slow to anger and often too trusting of others, including Rosalyn's other alters.

Heloise is the same age as Rosalyn, who was unaware of her existence until she was roughly 25 - 26 years old.

Désirée Faucheux
Désirée manifested later than Rosalyn's initial set of alters, appearing when Rosalyn was 17 years old. She embodies all of Rosalyn's darkest thoughts. She often stays quiet, but occasionally spoke as a voice internally. On very rare occasions, Désirée took control of Rosalyn's body, making her seem suddenly suicidal. Désirée has tried committing suicide on a few occasions, each attempt being thwarted another alter, either Heloise or Kazane.

Rosalyn found of Désirée's existence not long after she first manifested, but is unaware she is still active. Désirée has no age.

Kazane Ibuka
Kazane first appeared during Rosalyn's time in the Kujisaki Clan, due to sudden, repeated exposure to harmful ritual magic. Taking the name of Rosalyn's alias within the clan, Kazane believed she was a member of the Kujisaki Clan that lost her memory either during a mission outside of the clan or during a ritual. Kazane is very mentally strong, and surfaces only when Rosalyn or any controlling alter feels that her/his life is in danger. She acts as a 'guardian' to Rosalyn and her other alters, making the choice whether to fight (or continue fighting) or to run, to preserve their shared body. Kazane has some control over which alters can control Rosalyn's body, finding herself constantly fighting over this power with Heloise.

Rosalyn is aware of Kazane's existence, but believes she has not been active since prior to her marrying Cyril Kinsey and having Merrilyn and Elianna. Kazane is 4 years older than Rosalyn.

Appearance
Due to Rosalyn's devotion to magic, her appearance can slightly alter as she switches between personalities. Though (mostly) somewhat subtle, these minor changes can prove to make Rosalyn unrecognisable. The degree that her appearance changes differs from personality to personality.

As Rosalyn
Rosalyn is of average height and build, with some defined curves, standing at 157cm (5' 2" ft). She has long, red hair in a messy updone bun with uneven bangs, and brown eyes, which glowed red after getting her hands on Forbidden Magic texts. She has a youthful physique as a result of her (unintentional) time travel and use of magic, but has prominent cheekbones and dark circles under her eyes.

Even in the late 1800s, she tended to wear very 'old fashioned' attire dating back as early as the mid-1400s. After meeting Isabelle, Rosalyn began wearing more modern attire.

As Azelle
Azelle looks identical to Rosalyn, albeit younger. Her height is reduced to 138 cm (4' 6" ft). She typically wears very simple attire.

As Theodore
Theodore retains the overall appearance of Rosalyn, but with slightly more 'masculine' features. His figure is less defined, though he binds his chest. He is a few inches taller than Rosalyn, and has broader shoulders. His hair shortens after having to constantly cut it after initially gaining control of Rosalyn's body. He wears typical male attire, but often wears thick-soled shoes to elevate his height. He is about 170 cm (5' 6" ft) tall without his shoes.

As Lucille
Lucille looks exactly like the original Lucille D'Airelle. Her hair is slightly lighter in colour, and is often braided and tied into a bun. She has sharp, hazel eyes. Like Rosalyn, she often wears old-fashioned 1400s dresses. Lucille stands at 162 cm (5' 4" ft), with a slightly more 'top heavy' figure.

As Heloise
Heloise is almost identical to Rosalyn, though she has pink eyes. Like Azelle, she tends to wear simple clothing.

As Désirée
Désirée has much darker red hair than Rosalyn. Her skin is also paler, enough to make one believe she is dead. Her eyes are a lifeless grey and her dark under-eye circles are more noticeable. She wears whatever Rosalyn or the last controlling alter was wearing.

As Kazane
Kazane, like Heloise, looks very similar to Rosalyn, sharing her pink eyes, but in addition has black hair. She also appears to be more fit than Rosalyn or any of her other alters. She often wears a kimono resembling that of the Kujisaki Clan, or whatever Rosalyn or the last controlling alter was wearing.

Trivia
''Author's note: Rosalyn has what would be equivalent to Dissociative Identity Disorder (DID). I do not classify it as DID, as in the Medieval or Victorian Eras the knowledge we have today of mental illnesses was not available. I am trying my best to make Rosalyn a (somewhat) authentic representation of a victim the illness where possible. Suggestions are welcome.''
 * Rosalyn believed she had a severe case of memory loss, but this in reality was her absence as another personality controlled her body and lost memories as a result of her corruptive magic.
 * Rosalyn remembers nothing about her childhood or her family. She has fragmented memories in the 'trash dimension' and returning to Victorian England, as well as her time in the Kinsey family.
 * The frequency that Rosalyn's personalities change is not consistent.
 * Because of this, Rosalyn finds herself with no recollection of entire days, weeks or even months. On the rare occasion, Rosalyn remembers nothing about entire years.
