Appearance: Taylor's face is round and her neck is thin. It continues on into her slender strong shoulders which never seem to slouch. She is well developed in the bosom and her stomach is flat but not anorexic looking. Her legs are long and slender with a tattoo on the right calf of a bleeding rose. Her arms are long and don't look particularly strong but she can lift ten pounds over her own weight. Her nails aren't kept well, in fact she tends to bite them. There is often black chipped nail polish on them.
She has a tattoo on her left shoulder of a spider. She often wears contacts. So on any given day her eyes might be green, blue or her natural color, brown. She likes to change her hairstyle as well. Often times she will have long wavy or curly hair but then she will cut it when she feels she needs to start over. She usually cuts her hair to her chin and styles it in curls or keeps it straight. Her ears have two piercings and they are both in the earlobe. You can often find skull and cross bone studs or dangly earrings with a guitar pick or rose hanging from tiny silver orbs.
She likes to wear dark colors like black, dark purple, dark green, dark blue and crimson. Most of her pants are jeans and the jeans are often faded or torn in the knees. She wears tank tops, and t-shirts. Occasionally she will wear a peasant top with a long ankle length black skirt. She also wears black high tops unless she goes to a beach or is at home. At the beach she tends to wear flip flops while at home she wears socks and leaves her shoes by the door. She will also dye her hair for no reason at all. As far as make up goes, she usually wears a black or Crimson lipstick and eyeliner. On those days she is feeling lazy she wears just lip gloss and foundation.
Personality: Taylor is a nice girl if you stick around long enough. She tends to keep people at arms length so to speak. She trusts who she trusts when she wants to trust them. If you are willing to place time in talking with her and getting to know her then you will most likely get a loyal friend. She is a bit dark and at times scary if you don't like morbid jokes. Taylor is someone that others look down on and though she doesn't like it she has accepted it. She also tends to have a bit of a mean streak and that often comes into play when someone messes with her.
Taylor is paranoid as well. She has Post traumatic stress disorder and that tends to make her jumpy. People find it easy to sneak up on her. She is on medication and on the rare times that she takes it she is very happy. She doesn't smile alot normally and she doesn't smile when she is on the medication, but she does become a bit more likable and easier to talk to. She considers her self a bit of an Anime geek and a Rocker. She becomes hyper when she drinks too much mountain dew. When she is hyper she tends to talk really fast and uses the words "ya know?!" alot. She also seems to have an abundance of energy during this time and does humorous things with said energy. With in five hours though she often passes out and sleep for ten hours.
Some think she is lazy but in reality Taylor is just easily bored. She is a very intelligent girl but to keep her self entertained she will often let her mind wander and this often happens during school. During the time her mind is wandering she is easily scared by a sudden sound any where near her.

History: Growing up Taylor was an only child. Usually parents like to have a child a year to two years after their first but Taylor's parents had it tough with her from the start. She was always running around and causing trouble. Although Taylor was an active child she didn't have any issues. She was the perfect bill of health. When the Terrible Two's came her father couldn't handle it. Often to teach her a lesson he would slap her, hit her or lock her in a room for hours on end till she cried her self to sleep. Taylor's mother was patient. She would sit with Taylor and do things that would hold her daughter's interest for long periods of time. Her father just continued to get worse as Taylor got older. By the time she was in kindergarten she was covering bruises with long shirts and jeans.
She was trouble in school too. The teachers couldn't keep her attention in class so her mother got her tested for ADD or ADHD but Taylor didn't have that. She was just bored there. She loved to color pictures and draw but she loved to play with the musical instruments in class most. She showed talent in both art and music but Taylor loved music the most. About the time Taylor reached middle school her father had a serious mental break down. It happened when she was at home and her mother was off at work. Her father stormed through the house and threw things around screaming. Taylor had gone out to see what was wrong but ended up being hit in the face with a chair that her father was throwing. She was knocked across the room and was out cold until her mother arrived. By then her father had fled and left thinking he had killed his daughter. Things just started to go down hill for Taylor then.
She had lost her father and was utterly traumatized. She ended up making friends with some unsavory people. She got caught for stealing in a mall and was sent to Juvenile hall for a while. Only a couple months but it was enough to change her. She came out with two tattoos, her ears pierced twice and a new love for all things dark. Her mother was a free spirit a women who would move with what ever was thrown her way and so when her daughter returned dark and menacing, Mrs. Evans decided that with her daughter's change they should move. They arrived in Orange County in time for Taylor to start her sophomore year in high school. She wasn't exactly enthusiastic and by this time one of her mothers boyfriends had already giving her mother a parting gift so it was no longer just Taylor and her mother.
Taylor now had William as well. She loves her little brother and her mother. Her attitude has change from her middle school years and the more Taylor thought about it all the more she became optimistic. So, Taylor's first year in Orange County would be spent at a good school. Her mother had managed to sign her up for Newport High. If Taylor gets in she doesn't know what her life will be like, but she is willing to give it a try.
Role Playing Example:
Taylor sat in her room. Silence all around. Her room looked rather dark. Grey walls, black boarder trim. Her bed was so neatly made it hardly looked like she slept there. The sheets were black and grey, dismal colors for a young girls bed. The curtains that were open let in the light from the moon. Black satin curtains on silver rods. A lamp lit provided the perfect light for her to read her book.
The silence is broken. Footsteps fill the halls and she quickly closes her book. She stood to her feet and ran to her bed in her black night dress. She slipped and took a tumble to the floor. Her door opened and light from the mansion halls flooded in. The one she was calling father stepped in.
"Poor dear, did you stumble? Here... let me help you up."
He walked to her and she looked up. Her hand rose to take his and he pulled her to her feet. As Taylor looked up into the blue orbs of her new father, she saw something in them she hadn't seen before. Before there had been kindness, and worry. Now, there was pain, and hatred. The young mind demon tried to take a peek at what he was thinking, but he threw her to the bed and broke her concentration.
"Didn't I tell you it was time for bed an hour ago?! What are you still doing awake!?"
Taylor flinched as he yelled. His steps were heavy and his breathing was sharp and quick. He was excited. She had seen him get like this with the woman she called mother. She began to move up the bed to get away. Frantically her hands pulled at the sheets pulling her self farther from him as he came closer. He stood at the foot of her bed. Suit, cologne, dark black hair slicked back. His eyes were hungry and they were aimed at her.
"S-sorry...I... I couldn't sleep a-and..."
Her voice trailed off as she watched him climb up onto the bed on all fours. He grabbed her wrist and yanked her closer to him and she could smell cigar smoke on his clothes and brandy on his breath. She turned her head away, her mind reached out to his in hopes of stopping him from harming her, but to no avail. She screamed that night, the wounds on her arms and legs reopened to take in this new abuse on her person. At the end of it all, she lay in the bed shaking like a cat who had been held under water.
Her entire body stunk of him and she only wanted to wash away the filth. She couldn't leave the bed though. His arms had pinned her there. He was asleep but holding her close. She closed her eyes and slipped into his mind making him pull his body off of hers and she slipped to the closet. No time to wash, no time for anything but to grab her things and go. She had to get far away from here.
