ngl, i already had this typed up since yesterday bc i just wanted all my ideas out. at first, i had 3 different charas in mind, but then i thought why not combine all ideas into one? without further ado, hereāsĀ eleanor richardsā intro + her pinterest! note: i didnāt proofread, so if thereās info that doesnāt line up w/ dad being old money, mom being new money, etc. then my bad.
inspired by the tv show, dynastyĀ (ngl iāve been watching dynasty & rewatching degrassi lately so) and my love for anime/manga + video games.
āāāāāāāāāāāāāāāāāāāāāāāāāāāāāFAMILY. āāāāāāāāāāāāāāāāāāāāāāāāāāāā
eleanor is from both old and new money.Ā
from her dadās side, the family generations became old money as they worked in banks, politics, and real estate with other wealthy families before her great grandpa decided to work on his own. he started off with real estate then ventured into hotels. her father, mark warner, currently runs the businesses as it was eventually inherited to him. her mother, penelope richards, grew in new money. they got into the fashion business and penelope runs her own clothing and bag line.
they soon fell in love and her grandparents, on both sides, basically pushed them to marry as they thought it was a good deal to have different rich families come into one. however, they eventually divorced.Ā
penelope became more greedy and showed her true colors. she was manipulative, using people, keeping shady secrets, etc. and more focused on power, trying to make the best deals, and money. her dad just wanted a nice, calm life with someone he loved and hardly recognized his wife anymore. now, her momās been married more than 3 times by now, which eleanor became used to.
her dad soon moved back to new york to be with his side of the family and still stays in contact with him. even decided to live with him for a few years for her middle school education before going back to mom. there, she learned money isnāt everything and to be grateful. even now, she stays on contact and visits during summers and sometimes christmas. as for the other men in her momās life, she hasnāt been close to them as she wanted to. she just saw no point when they would eventually leave anyway.
growing up, she became used to drama almost everyday and still wonders why she hasnāt changed her last name yet. that meant she was tired of the life her family was living. a reason why she chose to hardly be in the richardsā family business and wanted to work on her own life.
she also has a sister she used to be very close to when they were young, but her sister grew and became just like her mom, a selfish bitch. she would create schemes in school, be the most popular student, think about only herself, etc. eleanor couldnāt stand being with more people like mom and became distant.
āāāāāāāāāāāāāāāāāāāāāāāāāāāāHER LIFE.āāāāāāāāāāāāāāāāāāāāāāāāāā
to deal with anything her mom was doing and to get away from reality, she turned to anime, manga, cartoons and video games. she felt these things kept her sane in her wild family. her room is decorated with anime posters, shelves of manga, and watches anime almost everyday. sheāll also go to multiple cons every year and will cosplay once in a while.
another interest she took up was baking. specifically french pastries and sweets. it made her realize she wants to become a pâtissier and her goals are to be world-known and have her own bakery company someday. she started baking around the age of twelve when she was with her dad. he bought her baking books and supplies. since then, she worked on improving her skills and sharing desserts she made with others around the neighborhood to hear feedback.
although, thatās not the only hobby she decided on. when it came to video games, she would play in arcades and at home with console and handheld ones before going into pc games. one game she fell for was overwatch. sheād end up staying all night playing and getting her rank up. soon enough, she was able to be in a team of professional players.
being into two different hobbies, she became torn because of how much time either one took. she wanted to continue playing overwatch and being able to meet so many new people, but she also enjoyed baking and loved seeing how her sweets made others happy.
she was already in college for baking, but when overwatch appeared in her life, she felt, and still feels, conflicted.
more may be added as i continue to think because the family certainly has a lot of secrets.
āāāāāāāāāāāāāāāāāāāāāāāāDISAPPEARANCES.āāāāāāāāāāāāāāāāāāāāāāā
she has mixed feelings about the disappearances of everybody else. sheās sad to not see her mom and the staff around the house anymore, not being able to talk to her dad, and not being in contact with the team. however, she feels oddly calm about the situation too. for some reason, she just isnāt freaking out entirely. sure, she finds it strange that everyone else is gone and wants to find out more about the situation, but she feels thereās really not much she can do, so why stress over it?
the reason sheās in kitchen help is because sheās already used to being in a kitchen for so long and feels thatās what her most useful skill is right now.
one thing she truly dislikes is having people sleeping in her home. she feels uncomfortable sharing the space with those she hardly knows and argued about it for a while before giving up. eleanor continues to feel uncomfortable, so she kept a few important pieces in her own room away from others.
