𝐂𝐇𝐀𝐑𝐀𝐂𝐓𝐄𝐑 𝐍𝐀𝐌𝐄 | lorelei haco velàzquez de cuéllar

LORELEI ——
lore - eh - lie
meaning "alluring, temptress"
quite a beautiful name, and one that fits her well. an old legend tells of a maiden by the name of lorelei who lived on a rock and lured fishermen to their deaths with her beautiful song ─ not that she's been killing any men recently. yet she does seem to have an alluring aura to her, which can hide her mischievous ways at first.

HACO ——
meaning "flame, fire"
haco has celtic origins. there was a legend of a mythical cornish leader by the name of haco who promised and lost his beautiful princess to a musician quite unwittingly, whose songs he had admired. this middle name perfectly sums up lorelei, who has quite the fiery personality herself.

VELÀZQUEZ ——
meaning "son of velasco"
this name doesn't have any special meaning to lorelei. the only interest it has raised has been in family debates; they all claim they've descended from diego velàzquez himself. what's the debate, you may ask? well, which diego velàzquez it is. there's the artist, and the conquistador.  the artist diego was the leading artist in king philip iv's court. the conquistador diego was the first spanish governor of cuba. who lorelei believes they've descended from hasn't been shared.

DE CUÉLLAR ——
a spanish surname derived from the town 'cuéllar', where she lives─or, used to live. this town originated in the middle ages, and has been around for centuries. as far as lorelei knows, her family line has lived in this town for many centuries. she can't help but feel a little disappointed that she had to leave, having grown up in cuéllar, but perhaps england will be better.

𝐍𝐈𝐂𝐊𝐍𝐀𝐌𝐄𝐒 | " doesn't everyone love nicknames? it's like finding different parts of yourself. "

CHICA DIABLO ——
meaning "devil girl"
back in spain after news had got around that she had lost her virginity before marriage, lorelei had been called names such as this. at first the nickname started off as chica que vino del diablo, which means girl who came from the devil, before it was shortened simply because that's a lot to say when you're trying to gossip. it seemed to follow her wherever she went, until she was shipped off to england to live with her cousin's family. not that she had any particular worry about the nickname; it never bothered her much.

LLAMA DANZANTE ——

𝐏𝐄𝐑𝐒𝐎𝐍𝐀𝐋𝐈𝐓𝐘 |

lorelei is a very passionate girl with a fiery spirit. the young woman isn't a afraid to speak her mind and do whatever she pleases, despite the judgement of others. this passion is most likely what fueled her to love and lust so strongly. looking past these things, you can find a girl with playful aura and captivating words. if she wasn't so stubborn, the eighteen year old would make a great leader─ or perhaps it would be the opposite way around. she doesn't give a fuck about what people keep telling her to be. " why be bossed around by others and hide away when you can be your true self? " she is just as grown up as she is childish, though her inner child is often brought out by her brother. being very flirtatious and sexual can be both a good and bad thing in the marriage mart, depending on the person─ not that she would change herself for a man. lorelei loves anything from the smallest of touches to full skin of skin. being both adventurous and unmotivated has its quirks. one moment she'll want to go live in the woods, ride horseback through the mountains, bathe in the river, and the next she'll be proclaiming she's "never getting out of bed again". lorelei can be full of mood swings, so be careful─ one moment she'll be laughing and smiling, and the next, flipping you off and giving you the cold shoulder. never assume what is going on inside of her mind; that can lead to her hating you. though she doesn't enjoy breaking hearts, lo isn't afraid to be blunt when she needs to be. lorelei loves to jab and make fun at other people, and quite enjoys playful banter. the eighteen year old has a sharp tongue, though, and is very creative when coming up with remarks and offensive phrases.

𝐇𝐎𝐁𝐁𝐈𝐄𝐒 |

HORSEBACK RIDING ——
lorelei was into horseback riding at a young age, and her love for it hasn't faded. she goes riding when she has free time or needs to think. often her brother drags her along on outdoor treks and riding, though lo doesn't mind as it gives them time to laugh and talk alone.

CALLIGRAPHY ——
considering how unmotivated she can be, lo actually really enjoys calligraphy. she has a fancy calligraphy set, and will do it for fun, practicing more so during the night when her mind is more clear.

PAINTING ——
despite being absolutely terrible at painting, lorelei always has a lot of fun throwing some paint onto a canvas and calling it art. her paintings are always terribly messy and not always pretty, but it's something she enjoys and won't stop doing any time soon.

COOKING ——
lorel will often help out in the kitchen, simply because she enjoys it. she loves creating new food combinations and learning all about seasonings─ only well seasoned food please.

𝐋𝐈𝐊𝐄𝐒 |

MUSIC ——
something about certain songs makes lorel quite content and eases her mind. she loves listening to and playfully dancing to music.

LUST ——
it's like a drug, an addiction. she loves the touch of men, and many sexual things. despite this, lo isn't very open about being sexual, or her sexual preferences. it's not really something she understands the need to speak about all of the time.

PORK ——
one of her favorite foods is pork. she always gets really excited when it's made for dinner.

FRUITS ——
lorelei surprisingly cares about her health, and makes sure to eat lots of fruits and vegetables throughout the day. she loves all types of fruits, her favorites being strawberries, pineapple, plums, and nectarines.

DRESSING UP ——
you can often find lorelei wearing extravagant outfits. lo loves to look gorgeous, not only because it's pleasing on the eye, but also because it boosts her confidence knowing she looks stunning.

𝐃𝐈𝐒𝐋𝐈𝐊𝐄𝐒 |

OCTOPUS ——
not as the animal, as the food. she tried it once. never again.

THE HEAT ——
lo would rather be much too cold than overly warm. turn the temperature down please.

NARCISSISTS ——

CAULIFLOWER ——
put this terrible vegetable in anything and lorelei will refuse to eat it. she believes it's absolutely disgusting.

SAILING ——
unfortunately lo gets very seasick while sailing, and has resorted to never doing it. despite this, lorel actually quite likes the sea, and will swim in the water as well as collect shells for a collection she has.

𝐎𝐏𝐈𝐍𝐈𝐎𝐍𝐒 |

SEXISM ——
lorelei thinks it's absolutely absurd. why shouldn't women have the same job opportunities as men? why should men not be allowed to wear dresses and makeup like women? the double standards are absolutely terrible. along with that is the expectations of society. why should it matter when you lose your virginity? why must everyone make a deal out of one person stepping out of place? lo isn't afraid to voice her opinions on this matter, and will definitely fight someone on it.

THE MARRIAGE MART ——
she doesn't necessarily hate it, but she also doesn't understand the need for it either. while she is fine with most of the aspects, she hates arranged marriages. despite being okay with the marriage mart, lo does not want to get married. in fact, she'll do anything to sabotage her chances of getting married any time soon. lorel doesn't need to commit to a man.

THE ROYAL FAMILY ——
to put this simply─ yes spain, no england. she doesn't know much about the royal family of england, and doesn't care to learn more. not that she's going to go around saying that to all of the people in england.

HOMOSEXUALITY ——
while she doesn't necessarily understand it, lorelei has no problem with it. she believes everyone has the right to do what they want, and doesn't see the point in trying to fight it. besides, she shouldn't really be criticizing the homosexuals when she's just as much of a disgrace in society as they seem to be.

𝐄𝐗𝐓𝐑𝐀 |

lorelei will often swear in spanish when she is angry. sometimes, to mess with people, she'll start speaking to someone else in spanish about random things like how the weather is, or if they've ever stared at the sun too long, and occasionally glance at someone who doesn't know spanish, as if she were gossiping about them.
