Full Name:
Elizabeth Marie Connery
Alias (if applicable):
The Pitbull in Lipstick by those in the legal community
Birthday:
September 22
Age:
Twenty-five
Hometown:
Thomas, Georgia, just a few miles out of Atlanta
Appearance:
A quick glance is never enough for one of Elizabeth’s status, one really has to take a longer look to fully appreciate all that is going on. The blend of her features is something to be admired for more than a few seconds and in her lifetime Elizabeth has received more than her far share of double-takes, even triple-takes. What first catches people is obviously her body. I mean really, if you’re walking by somebody on the street that’s going to be the first thing that you immediately see, your mind processes it so quickly that you likely don’t even notice. Now obviously people are going to see that she’s female, if they don’t then they must be blind and deaf because it’s simply just painstakingly clear. Although Elizabeth is not exactly curvy she has enough of a bust and wide enough hips to scream of femininity. But her beauty goes beyond that, far beyond, above those long legs and narrow torso. Where the body will quickly lose attention the face will hold it, and likely for a significant time.
The eyes are what draw the attention next, framed as they are by thick, dark lashes. A most brilliant shade of chocolate they are rather deep set, lending her the appearance of always being broody or tired. Bedroom eyes they have been called, and the title suits them well. Her eyes are the windows to her soul and they bare her emotions for the world to see, even though she has learned to control what emotions are displayed by this point in her life.
The eye is likely to follow those eyes to Elizabeth’s nose, what she considers to be one of her worst features. More than once she has complained that it is too long and too wide not to mention patterned with freckles. In her opinion freckles make her seem far too cutesy, a term that the young woman loathes completely. Nonetheless her nose really isn’t that terrible, paired as it is with full, pouty lips and high cheekbones it in fact defines her, makes her all the more appealing.
She also hates her jaw line. While most women like a square, thick jaw like Elizabeth’s, she can’t stand it on her. She feels it makes her look almost mule like, and finds it to over-done against her thin neck and the rest of her tiny body. She does not accent it much, and actually prefers to underplay it by wearing her hair down to cover the harsh line.
The hair, being one of the first and last things mentioned, is really quite luscious. It falls in lovely waves over the young woman’s shoulders, thick and dark. Yet in the right light it can seem almost honey-brown as opposed to black-brown. It also seems to change with the seasons, being much darker in the winter than in the summer months. Her hair is almost always perfectly groomed, though she never bothers to do anything overtly fancy with it. Beyond leaving it down (where it looks best) the only other thing she bothers doing is the odd ponytail or a messy bun. Even then it never stays up for long, various pieces falling down to frame her face. The stray strands often get in her way, thus the habit she has developed of constantly toying with her hair, pushing it off of her face or simply twirling it around her finger.
Back to the body, time for a better look. She definitely has a dancer’s body. Elizabeth is short in comparison to most girls, reaching only five foot two inches in height. It seems that the average height hovers more around five foot seven, so Elizabeth is often a bit smaller than most. Luckily the men are always much taller than her (usually at least) because honestly she would not be able to stand dating somebody who was shorter than her. Her legs are extremely long, giving her a look akin to a gazelle, finished off by her large brown eyes. Her build is typical to any girl who spends a lot of time outside. She’s slim and well toned with hardly an ounce of fat on her body due to the fact that she is constantly active and busy.
Elizabeth loves her body, and dresses in a way that shows it. When working, she is normally found in a very expensive suit and a pair of stiletto heels that show off her elegant legs and carefully toned body. She prefers suits of a monochromatic color paired with a button up shirt of a rich, royal color. However, when not working, she can be found in anything from a close tailored pencil skirt and nice top to ripped jeans and a band t-shirt. It really depends on what day you catch her on.
Personality:
Elizabeth can only be described as a minx. Being a natural charmer she uses it to it’s full potential. Whether it be playing the innocent damsel or an enchantress she makes sure that the very pores of her body it oozing it. Craving for attention and excitement she loves to stir things up, some examples including stoking fire to rumors and her favorite, leading men on. Being very much a lawyer, there is always a smile or smirk on her face that suggest she knows something that you don’t. She can be sly, coy, and clever, only giving a hint of her mischievous mind that is was plotting.
If you get to know her, you'll find a nice girl in Elizabeth. Indeed, she is not the bitch she seems to be all the time. Yes, she is blunt. She'll tell you what she thinks without showing any kind of tact and all, friend or not. She'll be blunt, and sometimes she will seem bitchy because of it, too. But that is just how she is. She's not the kind to shut up just to seem nice. If you annoy her, be sure she'll tell you! If you are her friend, she will love to make you laugh. She won’t go as far as to seem stupid in public, because she's not one of those ridiculous person, but she will be a fool. She will be there to ear you whine about stuff and she'll try to comfort you if something goes wrong, but due to her bluntness and lack of tact, she probably wouldn't be much help. Not like she doesn't try, though.
Her pride is one of her downfalls; she thinks very highly of herself and considers herself of great importance to family and to her peers. While it is a sin and throughout her life others have tried to get her to rid herself of it she can’t. She won’t back down in an argument with anyone, even a king. However she knows that there is always a time and a place for such unpleasantries and doesn’t want to embarrass herself or her court and therefore knows when to hold her tongue much to her displeasure and she has been known to be taken advantage of because of it.
However, her bluntness can take a back seat when it comes to a situation where she needs to observe. This is one of the things that makes her so good at what she does. When it comes to a situation where all her intelligence is needed to focus on one thing, such as a trial, she can. While most people would make wild accusations of guilt or innocence, what people thought or felt, Elizabeth sits back and allows people just enough rope to hang themselves, all the while never revealing what she’s doing.
Elizabeth has a horrible issue with control. The thought of someone having any type of control over her will send her into something very similar to a panic attack. This is a lot of the reason she has fought so hard against getting betrothed or married. She can become ridiculous about it, to the point that she will refuse orders to avoid not being in total control. Elizabeth has a sharp whit and a smart mind. She’s extremely intelligent and will use it to her advantage. She is almost never at a loss for words, and has a brash tongue that can sting.
She’s a good liar and a good actress, and is often well known as the girl with the perfect poker face. She can control all of her body’s reactions very well when she lies, having become so comfortable with it that her pupils don’t dilate and her pulse doesn’t speed up. And, she has a mannerism of speaking that can lead you down the path to hell and you’d think she’s taking you to heaven in a hand basket of silk. As much as she has a dislike for her mother, there is one quality that the two share, and a lot of the time end up clashing because of it is their temper. Elizabeth’s anger is her biggest downfall as she has a very hard time controlling it and will lash out at anyone when she is angry that gets in her way.
Of course she will refrain from yelling at those above her in stature. However in private when there is no one else around if the person she is angry with is above her she won’t hold back as she is a lady of position and feels she has the right let them know of her anger. When angry Elizabeth doesn’t care who is around to see her. Her tongue is made of venom and fire with matching eyes. She’ll take vengeance whether it be humiliating someone or completely tearing them to bits with words, and without a second thought. Seeing this side of her isn’t very pleasant and should be avoid at any cost.
She is incredibly flirtatious, often not distinguishing between availability and even gender. During her time at Harvard, she made several married women her enemies when she was caught in a shameless flirtation with their husbands or their daughters. She often blew it off, not worried about it, but it built her quite a reputation. Unfortunately this leaves her with quite a few enemies, mostly woman. But she could care less. Why let others ruin her fun?
Special Abilities:
Nothing incredible. She's a rather good marksman with a pistol and a rifle and she's good at reading people.
History:
Elizabeth Connery was born in the southern bayous of Georgia. It was a sophisticated area, where the old women still sat on their porches to drink iced tea and gossip about what they had heard in the grocery earlier that day. It was a peaceful setting for the only child of two rather well off individuals to raise their only child in. Elizabeth's father, Thomas, was also an attorney, and worked insurance law in the mains of Atlanta about twenty miles from the house. He was considered the most handsome man for twenty miles, with his dark curly hair and his big blue eyes, Her mother, Anne, was a debutant trophy wife who came from money and had never worked a day in her life. She was born and raised to be a trophy, with a darling figure, blonde hair, and big dark eyes.
Their marriage seemed a match made in heaven, especially when beautiful dark hair, dark eyed Elizabeth came along two years after they wed. Their happy family was complete, and absolutely perfect. Elizabeth went to a private school where she was taught not only her lessons, but was schooled in the arts as well. She was taught ballet, violin, and piano. She did very well in school, proving to be naturally intelligent and and charming with her tiny stature and sophisticated southern drawl.
She was a little "spitfire" as her teachers called her, with a tongue that would "make the devil cry" and a knack for thinking on her feet. She flew through high school in a blaze of color, graduating validictorian and being accepted to Harvard soon after. but when Elizabeth got to Boston she went a little...wild. She had never been this far out of her quiet Atlanta town and the partying offered by Boston's down town proved to be too much to bear.
Though she kept her grades up, Elizabeth began hitting the bottle rather hard, almost to the point of alcoholism. She graduated high in her class from Harvard, but most definitely was not validctorian again. She was accepted to Harvard Law and, while doing her classes, began interning with a local attorney.
While working a case on a local criminal accused of money laundering and attempted murder, she fell head over heels for the smooth talking, well dressed crime lord. Soon, their relationship went from playful flirting to explicit, and word got out. Elizabeth managed to keep her place in Harvard Law, but her reputation in Boston was destroyed.
As soon as she graduated, Elizabeth packed up and moved to Gotham, looking for a clean start, and Gotham was one of the highest rate crime cities this side of the country, Her spit fire attitude and natural good looks earned her the nickname "The Pitbull with Lipstick" among her peers. Not that she minded it. If anything, she enjoyed the nickname. She has become known as one of the wealthiest and one of the best attorneys in Gotham.
