Overall Dress/Appearance: (At least a paragraph. This is completely optional. I personally hate having to write out detailed appearances, and won't require it on my site. however, if you're one of those people that likes those kind of thing, be my guest.)
The Demeanor
Overall Personality: Roxane was always a vibrant, outgoing girl. She was hardly ever shy as a child and people thought she was going to be a performer. While people were thinking that, Roxane would be in her room, drawing and coloring. It was discovered that she had a gift for art. Her walls were covered with her favorite paintings, The Dancers by Degas. She was always a loving and passionate girl but it only really showed in her art.
When Roxane met her fiancee, he got to see what she could only show in her art. She's also funny when the time calls for and she never grew out of being a smartalec. She was always seen smiling when her fiancee was alive. She misses him terribly and can't get herself to take off her engagement ring. She knows she will never love again.
What is your character's deepest secret? that she will never get over her fiancee's death, she will never love another and she believes he may still be alive, since she did not see his body.
What is your character's strongest desire? to be reunited with her fiancee in some way, shape or form.
The Past
Family: Michael Ashford [father]
Jacqueline Beaumont-Ashford [mother]
Lewis Ashford [older brother]
Previous and Current Romantic Relationships: She just lost her fiancee...at least she thinks she has, but he was turned into a vampire, waiting to see if she's moved on (Which she hasn't) for the right time to come back to her.
History: Roxane Kristel Nathalie Ashford was born on November 7th to Michael and Jacqueline Ashford in Rochester, New York. She was preceded by a year and a half by Lewis, her older brother. She had a happy childhood. Her family lived in Rochester until she was 7. Then the family decided it was time for a change in scenery. As luck would have it, Michael's work was opening a new branch in Forks, Washington and they leaped at the chance.
The Ashfords moved to Forks as a family. Roxane was excited to start school but once there, kids made fun of her name, saying it was to weird. Slowly but surely, the kids stopped. She never had a boyfriend and she watched all her friends get them. When she was a junior at Forks High School, she met the guy she knew she wanted to spend the rest of her life with. They started dating just in time for the Homecoming dance. After that night, Roxane started writing Mrs. in front of his name in her notebooks.
When he graduated, he didn't want to leave Roxane so he decided to take classes online. Roxane finished her senior year and was one of the top members of her class, especially in art. For college, she started attending and he transfered to Cornish College of the Arts in Seattle. She majored in Art with a concentration in painting and he was in a music program. He recently graduated and one night, he proposed to her. Roxane happily said yes. Roxane graduated early and the couple moved back to Forks.
Roxane and her fiancee were completely happy. They lived in a two bedroom apartment and were done planning their wedding when tragedy struck. Her fiancee was in a horrible car accident. She was by his side as soon as she got to the hospital and never left it....until a doctor assured her that he would be fine and told her to go home and get some rest. She did.
The next morning, Roxane got to the hospital. She was told that her fiancee went into cardic arrest. He died just after she arrived at the hospital. Her heart was broken into a million pieces. She is hardly the same person she was when he was alive. Roxane misses him so much and she doesn't know what to do without him.

"Go home for the night, Miss Ashford." the doctor had said, "Your fiancee is going to be just fine and you need your rest."
That's what Roxane Ashford was told the night before at almost 1 in the morning. She sighed as she woke up in the apartment she and her fiancee shared. She ran a hand through her dark brown hair and looked around the room. The apartment seemed empty without the sounds of him getting dressed and moving about the two bedroom apartment they shared. She got up and padded across the hardwood floor, which creaked a bit for it was an old building. She dressed herself in dark wash skinny jeans, a white sweater and black knee high books.
Roxane walked to the kitchen and made herself some tea, to try to help her calm down. She was so worried about her fiancee. She sipped her tea slowly while sitting at their small kitchen table. She sighed. The only sound as she sat still in the kitchen was the clock ticking. As soon as she finished her cup of tea, she cleaned her cup, put it away and got her keys. She needed to see him. She slipped on his old leather jacket that he gave her when they first started dating. She hardly ever left home without it.
Roxane drove to the hospital. The silence in her car was deafening. She reached the hospital as quickly as she could, while keeping a safe speed. She walked inside and went to the nurses' station. "Excuse me?" she said, "I was wondering where my fiancee is?" The nurse there asked his name and she gave it to her. The nurse paled. "He's gone into cardiac arrest, miss." she said "The doctors are working on him now. "What?" Roxane said, in shock, "The doctor said yesterday he'd be fine!
Her chocolate brown tears had tears spilling over. She took a seat, like the nurse suggested. Some time later, the doctor from the night before came out. "Doctor?" she said, "How is he? How's my fiancee?" He shook his head. "I'm sorry, Miss Ashford...we did everything we could..." In Doctor terms, that was a soft way of putting "your fiancee's dead". No!" Roxane said, hysterically, "He can't be. He can't." She started sobbing. She covered her face with her hands, the ring finger of her left hand bore a simple diamond band, her engagement ring. She said his name as she sobbed, her heart breaking into a million pieces.
