...What Do You See In The Mirror And Believe..
[/size][/center][/b]Appearance:
Eri is tall and slender, and thin. Many people question her to see if she is eating healthy enough, because she's so startlingly thin-- and she is, to be truthful. She eats plenty. She simply has a high metabolism, so she can eat a lot and never get weigh too much. The reason she is so scary thin, however, is because for a part of her life she was anorexic, and because of her high metabolism, even when she ate it didn't fill out her form. And so she remains like this, forever willowy, especially in her immortal form. Behind smooth, pink lips are delicate, but needle-sharp teeth that are coated in a thin but deadly venom. She moves fluidly, oddly like a snake in a very sensual sort of way (hm, I wonder?). Her skin is pale, and her cheeks slightly rosy; her eyes are a wonderful golden amber color, with slitted ebon pupils instead of normal round ones. Eri, of course, dresses beautifully and extravagantly, and her clothes usually accent her flawless, finely shaped features.
Personality:
Eri is your class A high-society lady. What she lacks for in kindness she makes up in wit and charm, being charismatic as she is, and rarely will let a conversation die down. She is, as you would say, quite the social butterfly, making her way through plenty of presitgous social gatherings and charming all of the guests she has for her own. Despite all of her charm and good looks, to befriend her, you have to be quite the patient person to withstand her. She's very childish, very much like a diva, and when she doesn't get what she wants you'll be sure to here about it-- whether you want it or not. Eri is the kind of person who likes everything to be beautiful, extravagant, and lustrous; if it ends up being not so, she'll pretty much panic and do whatever she can to fix it, whether it be a person or a place. She refuses to take no for an answer to anything she wants, and will keep pestering you about it until she gets it. Really, Eri's idea of beautiful and even more beautiful things stems from the want to be loved; and because she's so scared of love, of settling down and then getting rejected, she skips from person to person, always remaining poised and composed but never quite settling.[/size]

...A Touch Of The Past..
[/size][/center][/b]History:
Eri was born as a freak. At young age, her parents realized something was wrong with her, because she had scales along the edges of her arms and legs, and her tongue would flick in and out-- suspiciously like a snake's. Her mother was completely and utterly disgraced by this because, although Eri was beautiful both in personality and physical appearance, the scales and snake-like qualities she harbored made her all the more burdensome. Often, her parents would argue, and her mother would exclaim how Eri probably got these snake like qualities from her father, because he was like one so much, and Eri's father would retort with a sharp, well maybe you should look in the mirror? It was a ceaseless circle, and eventually Eri's only escape was school-- and eve that wasn't a good one.
At school, she wore long clothes to hide her scales, and learned to try to keep her tongue inside her mouth. Nowadays, it only happens when she's nervous, but back then it took most of her concentration to stop it. Children made fun of her because she was so quiet back then, because she was afraid of speaking, and it's hard to believe that that silent, kind of scary child that sat in the back of the classroom is now a flamboyant Czaress. But she was, and she is, and so that's that.
At age fifteen, Eri couldn't take her life anymore. She ran away from home, and then stumbled upon a man who said, "Why, my dearest Eri, you look lost. Why don't you come with me, heart, and we'll see if we can fix you up?"
For the time, she wasn't concerned with how this complete stranger knew her name. She was startled by the warm look on his face, his handsome smile, the way she fancied looping their arms together. He explained his name was Mister Victor Macabre, and that he was going to give her a home, yes he was. And that home turned out to be a circus. The circus, funny enough, was named, "Circul de Freak", and literally translated from Romanian meant "Circus of Freak". And boy, was the title right. People of utter horror and abnormalities resided in this place-- and though it was scary, Eri made friends here, felt more at home here than she ever had.
Until Mister Macabre decided it was time for her to do work.
Eri was the star of the show. "View the beautiful young snake girl! But be careful-- she bites!" That's how it always went. Eri learned to make fluid, gentle movements with her body and hands, more graceful than the best gymnast in the world because of her snake genes. Soon, she dropped her original name and became "Eri Kobayashi, Snake Girl", and the scales grew smaller, less noticeable, more flesh colored. There came a time in Eri's life at the Circul de Freak that Mister Macabre's warm smile became more menacing, more cruel, more alike to his name. And there was a time when Eri fled from that, too.
She was used to fleeing, leaving family and friends behind. She would get used to it again.
The rest of her years up until this point are a bit of a blur; she stopped aging at around twenty three, and remains beautiful and youthful. She worked for the court for a long time, and learned it's ways; ambition and cunning became a large part of her vocabulary. And, surprisngly enough, the Tsar found her in his favor and granted her title of Czaress Eri. And that is where she is today.
