[ RYAN DESTINY, CISFEMALE, SHE/HER ] shh ! CHLOE DAVIES, the TWENTY year old SECOND year BUSINESS major from LONDON, ENGLAND is known as a DIAMOND around here. SHE was invited to join because SHE IMPRESSED A MEMBER WITH HER PERFORMANCE IN CLASSES, and now, theyāre here to stay. SHE reminds me of AN UNCUT DIAMOND, READY TO BE POLISHED, A PERFECTLY TAILORED BLAZER, and SMOOTHING YOUR SKIRT BEFORE YOU ENTER A ROOM.
hello everyone !! i am so incredibly excited to be here with you all. my name is anna and i have the great pleasure of bringing the opal society itās diamond prodigy, miss chloe davies. under the cut is some more info about her. feel free to hit the heart and iāll come hit you up about plotting out some fun dynamics !!Ā // @opalsmedia
FAMILY HISTORY
the davies family is nouveau riche by the standards of strathmoreās most wealthy and notable students. chloeās grandfather, clarence, struck it big, starting his career as a simple clothing tailor, only to grow his humble business into a well respected empire. anyone whoās anyone has a custom tailored davies suit in their closet ( and anyone who really matters has a whole closet full of them ). the original shop still stands on saville row in london, known for carrying only the best of the best. it is chloeās father, timothy, however, who put davies menswear on the map, taking the brand all across the globe. he began working in his fatherās shop at the tender age of 16, no business experience himself, and managed to make their last name known worldwide for impeccable tailoring and quality.Ā
chloeās mother, sophia, comes from london society, and it was a bit of a scandal when she took up with chloeās father, for even though by then, the davies name was certainly well known, they were still in an industry of service, rather than having inherited their money from god knows where for generations upon generations. but sophia did not care. she admired timothy, his work ethic, and his determination to be something greater than the world ever planned for him to be. they were wed in a small ceremony, immediately settling down in the kensington neighborhood, in a beautiful home with wisteria climbing the exterior walls. it was picturesque, the sort of life that timothy had always imagined for himself but never thought he could achieve. sophia and timothy immediately wanted a family, but after many failed attempts to get pregnant, the couple grew frustrated. it didnāt seem to be in the cards for them. but when they stopped trying, they were blessed with a miracle. they were on their way to starting their family after all. nine months later, they were blessed with a beautiful daughter, naming her chloe. she was treated as if she was the sun, moon, and stars ā and to her parents, she was.Ā
THEĀ INDIVIDUAL
there were no limits placed on chloe in some respects. but in others, she could not have felt more shackled. despite their best efforts to appear on the up and up, it was no secret that the davies family was on the fringe of londonās high society, always a step away from being knocked down a peg by those whose wealth was generational. it was never explicitly explained to her by her parents, they were always good at putting up a front, but the way in which they and she were treated gave enough context clues to put two and two together.Ā
chloe knew she had to be the best in order to keep afloat in an ocean full of sharks. she inherited her fatherās drive, but even moreso, she had a certain fire all her own, to not be treated like such an outsider, even though she grew up on the inside her whole life. chloe worked hard to be the best and the brightest, in any arena she stepped foot into. she is a perfectionist through and through and understands that in this world, appearances are everything. sheās spent so much time crafting hers, however, that sheās still not quite sure who she is underneath the mask. on the surface, she is sharp edges, gleaming andĀ polished to a tee, but underneath lies an uncut gem, flawed and ready to be molded at a momentās notice.Ā
strathmore university was chloeās one and only choice for uni ( she applied to some safeties, naturally, but her eye was always on the prize ). her years in secondary school were spent prepping for admissions, participating to her fullest capacity both with academics and extracurriculars, all in preparation for gaining admittance to one of the top research universities in all of the united kingdom ( and frankly, the entire world ). the davies name wouldnāt do her any good to get her in the door. her interviewer may be wearing a custom tailored davies suit, but not a building on campus bore the davies name ā the level of influence was not the same. fortunately, all her hard work paid off and she was granted admission to her dream uni.Ā
stepping foot on to strathmoreās campus for her first year did nothing to change her go-getter personality. she still strived for greatness and showed no signs of slowing down. while she always had the option to go into the family business, to keep serving those in high society, she would much rather make a name for herself and earn a seat at the table, no matter what it takes. this drive is what led her to receive an invitation from the opal society. prior to mask-clad members turning up at her dorm room on what is now the most important night of her life, she hadnāt a clue about the opal societyās existence, besides some whispers around campus about a huge manor in the woods. despite growing up alongside london high society, despite so many davies clients being opal society members themselves, it was a secret well kept from her. she is the first davies to have the opportunity to join this exclusive circlet, and finally, she feels as if sheās on her way to achieving the greatness she so desperately craves.
HEADCANONSĀ
chloe is a talented violinist. sheās been playing since the age of eight and heavily considered pursuing it as a career option, but ultimately, she decided it did not fit what she wanted her brand to be. however, she still keeps up with playing. she finds it relaxing. itās second nature to her. after a particularly rough day, donāt be surprised to hear some brahms or tchaikovsky coming from behind her closed door.Ā
she will not step outside without looking perfectly manicured. her mother always emphasized appearances, having grown up in london high society herself. she comes to classes dressed to the nines and wonāt even go to the gym in athletic wear ( she changes in the locker room, always wears something sleek and black, and then showers, changes, and reapplies light makeup before she heads back home ).Ā
her favorite color is the lavender hue of the wisterias that grow up the side of her childhood home. she doesnāt wear it often, but she does decorate with it. she also almost always has a clipped wisteria branch in a small vase in her room. itās not the prettiest to have in a vase, but it reminds her of home.Ā
THE SOCIETY
joining the opal society feels like a culmination of all of chloe's hard work, the sort of reward that sheās always been working towards. she had dreamed of being a true part of londonās upper crust for so long now, but this is somehow even better. this is a gilded invitation into the true elite ā this is the sort of place sheās always known sheās belonged. however, she is still nervous. she feels like an imposter, and maybe she is one. sheās always been so close to being on the inside, but rather than being invited inside, sheās been staring with her face pressed to the glass, pounding and pounding against the window for someone to just open up. now, the door has been opened wide for her and she canāt help but to hesitate and wonder if this is too good to be true. she hasnāt heard more than just the rumors until now, so she doesnāt fully know what sheās getting herself in for, which ups her nerves even more so. but chloe is not one to back down, especially not when sheās being offered everything sheās always wanted.
WANTED DYNAMICS
on the dl hookup(s)? -- chloe is a very put her work and the societyĀ before everything kind of girl, but hey, a girlās gotta have some fun sometimes, right? would be even spicier if she got involved with a third year opal, given that itās forbidden, but honestly, sheād love to have someone to serve as a distraction, even if only for a little while.Ā frenemiesĀ -- chloe is, well, sheās definitely tough to get along with. sheās got a gratingĀ personality --- sharp edges, only dulled down enough to get through life in the way that she wants. i could see her having that someoneĀ she just doesnāt mesh with, but for the good of the circlet, she plays niceĀ --- but rest assured, chloeās got an eyeĀ on them at all times.Ā equal ambitionĀ -- someone who has the same amount of crazy driveĀ that chloe has. i want her to find someone that she really respects, who she really looks up to, and who she can talk to about all this ambitionĀ she has. sheās gotta put it somewhere, right !Ā Ā
