Description Kevin wrote this one because he's obviously much better at it lol. We both decided on the names though. Her appearance will probably (dramatically) change, or she'll at least step out of that damn pink dress INTO A WHITE ONE. jk.


Role: Deuteragonist

Full Name: Beatrix Starling

[Preferred name]: Bebe, Momo-chan

Title: None (though Uka always gives her the honorific “-chan”)

Age: 6

Date of Birth: June 16th

Gender: Female

Sexual Orientation: Presumably heterosexual, she's only six.

Race/Ethnicity: Caucasian

Skin tone: Soft white, a bit paler than her sisters

Height: 3' 2”

Weight: 42 lbs

Build: Small for her age, becomes severely underweight later in the story

Eyes: Very light brown

Hair: Bright red, leaning more toward orange

Clothing style: Skirts for most occasions, though she insists on dresses for special events. She enjoys dressing up, though not as much as Bridget.

Tattoos/piercings/marks/scars etc: None

Appearance: Bebe likes to look nice, and always keeps herself clean. Her mom spends a lot of time brushing her hair, which Bebe refuses to get cut more than a few inches. She is pretty, but is frequently overshadowed by Bridget.

Religion: Christian, though the family isn't particularly devout.

Education: First Grade

Languages: English, some Japanese (learned from Mr. Uka)

Hobbies: Reading: Especially after meeting Mr. Uka, Bebe becomes obsessed with reading. She's quite good, reading at a sixth grade level. Music: Bebe, along with Bethany, is learning to play guitar from their uncle. Cartoons: Bebe is addicted to action cartoons. Though she doesn't admit it, she does have a fascination with romantic movies.

Problems/Addictions/Disorders: None to begin with. Later in the story she develops a severe speech impediment and something resembling Dissociative Identity Disorder.

Citizenship: American Citizen

Current residence: Royster, PN

Current relationship status: Has a severe crush on Mako Uka.

Family: James Starling (Father), Cassandra Starling (Mother), Bethany Starling (Sister), Bridget Starling (Sister)

Voice: Lowest of the three sisters, but still girly. Has a bit of an overdramatic quality. Becomes much softer, near inaudible, later.

General health: Perfectly healthy, at least at first. Later, not-so-much.

Short Bio: In a shocking defiance of fate, after being told that they couldn't have children, James and Cassandra Starling gave birth to a set of triplets. For small city, Royster, it was a big enough event that most of the city knew of the Starling sisters before they could even walk.

The sisters were remarkably close, even as far as triplets go. Despite their parents' best efforts to fan the girls different interests, they frequently joined the same activities as a force of habit. Even in some, such as soccer—where Beatrix hung behind her sisters—merely doing the activity together provided them with endless entertainment.

As the daughter of two teachers, her mother a third grade teacher and her father a college professor, Beatrix Starling, preferring the nickname Bebe, grew up fascinated with learning. At first it was just to impress her parents, a playful bit of sibling rivalry, but as time passed the little girl found that she didn't just enjoy the adulation, she really, truly enjoyed discovering new facts and bits of information. She developed a passion for reading and, at the age of five, tackled the classic Moby Dick.

Also at the age of five, Bebe and Bethany began taking guitar lessons with their uncle, Philip. Initially, Bethany showed more natural talent, but the two stayed up late, getting in trouble frequently for breaking their bedtime, practicing so they could stay on the same level. Feeling left out, Bridget took up piano lessons with their mother, and the three made a habit of playing together—much to their parents' chagrin at times.

When James' mentor visits, Bebe becomes madly infatuated with him. Fascinated, especially, by the fantastic stories her father tells about Mako Uka, the little girl adopts the professor as her own mentor. She learns a bit of Japanese from him, and begins actively pursuing the language herself after his departure. Though they only interacted for two weeks, Bebe still writes to Mako Uka to update him on her progress in school, life, and everything else.

When Mr. Uka returns several months later, his and Bebe's relationship changes in ways neither expected.
