Personality; Crazy and spirited are often the first words used to describe Gwendolyn Vance. Gwendolyn is almost always wearing a smile, energetic, and very talkative. She knows no strangers, at least not for long. Always full of energy, she's always out and about town. She's happy to be the first to initiate conversation and is really quite inquisitive once you get around her more. She genuinely cares about people. She's a bubbly girl, with just a hint of sass. Gwen really isn't afraid to stand out or to just be herself.
Gwendolyn can come off as a bit fierce or strong sometimes. She has a very 'dare me and I'll do it' attitude about life, which is probably both good and bad. She's definitely a free spirit. The other thing you'll almost immediately notice about Gwen is that she almost always can be caught humming to herself or with a violin in hand. The girl practically lives for music, and is quite musical.
History;
Gwendolyn moved into to Gerede when she was but ten years old. Prior to that, she lived in the much larger San Francisco, California. She was the oldest of two children, having a brother who is six years younger than she. Her parents were divorced shortly before her mother, brother and she moved here. Gwendolyn’s mother was an artist, very free spirited and open with her kids. So, from a young age, art was brought into Gwen's life. Gwen's favorite form of art was found in her violin. She took lessons from a very young age, falling in love with it almost instantly. She couldn't paint, draw, write, or act, but she was just fine with that as long as she had her violin. Her grades were never the best, usually just staying in the B-C range, since Gwen really had no interest in school. Surprisingly, her mother was fairly open with this, ranking artistic abilities much above any other school subject. As long as Gwen passed, it was fine. Her mother believed strongly in 'free expression.' Before they moved to Gerede, she let her two kids run about the house, just freely painting the walls of their small studio apartment in any fashion they felt right. Most people found it crazy, but Gwendolyn liked the spontaneous nature of it all.Overall, she had a happy childhood. Even if she has long since moved out of the house, she's still very close to her family. Since graduating, she's remained in town, working various odd jobs to pay the bills. Gwen hopes to one day get a career in music or dance, but until then she's content here in Gerede.
