Personality:
Dahlia is b*tchy, just like any other stereotypical pretty girl, this is probably due to years of being brought up by the most stuck up mother in the world. When Dahlia was younger, her parents would often leave her at home with the nanny, this could be a reason as to why she's so scared of being alone a lot of the time, and so she tries as hard as she can to make friends wherever she goes. Although not everybody is willing to put up with her demanding behaviour and her mean sarcastic attitude. She's a bit of a socialite as long as it's within the right crowd. She likes to think of herself as a tough cookie, but if you know her really well, you'll know that she's not, she just wants to be loved. She loves to be the centre of attention, but I guess that where being the daughter of Aphrodite gets you.
Her parents used to think she was bipolar with the way her emotions changed so much, she could go from bitterly angry to being such a lovely person in 0.5 seconds. That’s another reason as to why when she does have friends, they don't stick around so long, she confused them with her mood swings. She gets incredibly mad if someone calls her a dumb blonde, just because she's blonde and beautiful it doesn't mean she's stupid, she likes to do a lot of things dumb girls don't do.
History:
17 years ago, a man named Edwin Costello had finished his last ever photo shoot, he was hanging it up for good, he was only 29 but he was apparently getting too old, he went to a new bar that appeared to be popular and filled with beautiful people, one in particular caught his eye, and it was apparent he'd caught hers too. They got chatting and things progressed into something more, to him things happened all too fast and only realised what had happened when she was picking her clothes up from his bedroom floor. They talked a while she told him her story, at first he thought she was joking, but she wasn't laughing. She left soon after, and nine months later he received a daughter.
Ever since she was born, Dahlia had always known she was special, and that was without knowing she was a demi-god. Her parents, being the business first, family after kind of people, they were never around much, so she always being left with the nanny, who was always amazed with how beautiful looking she was even from a young child. She's an only child and hates it, it means that she's alone a lot of the time and has no-one she can really talk to about her problems. Her step-mother had always hated her, for reasons unknown, but it was probably because she wasn't her child. Growing up she loved snow white, it was her favourite fairytale, she often imagined that she was snow white and that her step-mum was the evil queen. It would make her happier every time her step-mother shouted at her, she'd often think to herself "One day, a handsome prince is going to save me from you, because I'm prettier than you and you're going to die a miserable old cow" sometimes she even said it aloud, which got her into a lot of trouble.
Dahlia lived in New York with her parents, she went to a private grammar school, where she played the role of miss popular, every now and then being challenged by the other pretty people around her, that’s as far as her life went, she occasionally modelled here and there, but that was it for her, her life wasn't too exciting. That was until she was attacked by a fury whilst on a trip to the theatre with her school. She was watching the play Othello, she left half way to go to the toilet, as she was on her way out from the toilets a woman stopped her, before her eyes she transformed into something terrifying, something she'd never seen in her entire life before. Then her biggest nemesis, or so she thought burst in, and she was half goat, and half girl, her mind was whirring like crazy, she was frozen to the spot, whilst the person she hated the most saved her life. Wendy (the satyr) filled her in on who she actually is, and why she is the way she is. Wendy took her to half blood academy, where she was claimed as daughter of Aphrodite,
Abilities: Naturally charming, seductive, Minor control over love, Has telepathic connections with doves and swans, and some minor connections with dolphins, Magical control over clothes, makeup, and jewelry. Has the ability to make love potions.
Weaknesses: She doesn't trust people a whole lot, that makes it difficult for her to make friends, as for most of her life, she's either had a nanny or a maid do nearly everything for her, this means she has grown lazy over the years, this could cause her problems when iy comes down to her work and defending herself. Her b*tchy-ness tends to put everyone off.
Other Information: Aphrodite gave Dahlia a white pearl bracelet that turns pink when trouble is near, a bow and love arrows, whoever is shot with the arrow falls in love with the first person they see
