My Burlesque Alter Ego: Stella Godiva



Age: 28
Occupation: Highlighted Burlesque Dancer at 1 Up

Does she have a significant other?
No, her line of work brings a lot of jerks, slime balls, and gold diggers. She did once, but he died long ago from an unspoken hand (her own, is what the newscasters suggested).

Likes: Purple, aqua, black; children, running, shooting at the range, and creating new outfits for her shows.

Dislikes: Green, red, yellow; being alone, people, coffee, and herself when she's not doing a show.

Her voice: She has a very soft, sultry voice that never quakes when it speaks. It always owns the room when it comes out.


Her behavior: She acts with solemnity, exudes confidence, and almost always accepts a challenge.


Personality: She is quiet, but not shy just doesn't feel a need to express an opinion to people who do not matter to her. She seems cocky by passers by, yet sweet. She is harsh when she does speak her mind. She is very cynical of people and their motives.

Looks: Her skin has a faint blue hue to it. Her hair is as black as a raven's feathers. Her eyes are as black as the night. Her shape is a cone, larger on top than bottom, and has a little healthy meat on her.

Where did she come from?
She doesn't know where she came from and, by this time in her life, doesn't want to know. She was found on the doorstep of a small Kansas orphanage facing ruin, and shut down 6 years later.

What kind of life does she have?
She lives a very recluse life. Doesn't talk much, unless necessary. Almost always seen by herself. Rarely smiles, even in shows. She has one pet, an iguana named Georgie, whom she found in a dumpster outside a pet shop.


What experiences has she been shaped by?
It never really bothered her much with not knowing where she had come from. All she knew growing up was that she knew where she wanted to be, and would be one day. Something that really affected her was when she was on a bench for the bus next to a smelly hobo who was sleeping. She was 10 and she said, “Why do you sleep here? Do you like being a smelly hobo?” And he simply replied, “I don't see myself as a smelly hobo, but a lone wanderer with a reason to live.” She knew then that no matter where you are, and how weird other people thought you were, if you were where YOU wanted to be, then who cares about anyone else?

Who has she known and had relationships with?
She keeps to herself. Her co-workers say that she comes in, does her show, and leaves without a word. Her boss likes how professional she is on and off the stage is all that they know.

Small Details: When not working, she wears neutral colors (black, white, gray, brown). She has flawless skin. She has a pierced nose, eyebrow, cartilage in her ear, and belly button. She has one tattoo on her back of a greek symbol meaning “strength.” Rarely wears jewelry that's not pierced into her body.


Flaws: Her cynicism makes her alone a lot, the opposite of what she really wants. She doesn't go outside to actual places much, mostly uninhabited places. She is socially not out there.
