;; personality
general;; Angel tends to be rather quiet at times , but she will work for hours on end until her newest music is perfect. She does not like to think about her inability to see .Whenever the ballet dancers practice she makes herself scarce and she does tend to snap at them from time to time especially whenever they are wasting their time and not giving everything to their craft.
Angel has a soft spot for children and animals, especially strays and she either has a tendency to find strays or strays find her. She protects her friends to the last drop of strength in her body. Whenever others are out having a good time she tends to shy away from social events to avoid the stares and the whispers .She pours her heart and soul into her composing , sometimes making it sound eerie or creepy, other times she has brought the Opera Patrons to tears.

;; origins
general;; Angel was born to Delilah and Andrew Ravenheart in Athens Greece while her father was stationed in the army . Angel faced a unique difficulty since birth because she was born blind. Delilah and Andrew sheltered and protected her since birth but eventually when they tried to send Angel to school in Greece, she was picked on mercilessly. After a boy tried to shove her down the stairs when she was 10 her parents decided to relocate to France.
They settled into a country house in Auvergene where her father made friends with a duke and upon his passing , Andrew was given the title due to the fact the duke had no heirs and no family to inherit the title. 2 years later when Angel was 12 her brother Robert was born, happy, healthy and perfectly able to see.
Angel sort of became a shadow in her own house until she heard about the Opera. She had always wanted to dance since she was a little girl ..But her parents forbade her to dance fearing she would hurt herself. Angry over this Angel left home and went to the Opera.. Her parents found out and instead of forcing her to come home.. when they learned of her talent for composing they allowed her to stay on the condition she never dance. Angel settled into this life but she is teaching herself how so that maybe one day she can become a great dancer.

;; role playing
sample;;
Angel moved to the piano , her cane tapping lightly to find her way to her seat. Sitting down she let out a soft sigh..She knew where everything was here.. She had been working on a piece for Don Juan late last night.
Rummaging she found her sheet music.. one corner folded back ..aha! She settled it in front of her at the piano and began to play, the notes haunting as they echoed throughout the Opera house. She played everything strictly from memory .. She learned a long time ago, memorization was key if you wanted to write music.
Her fingers paused over the keys as she heard a soft step and she smiled. She had an audience tonight in the rafters...She ran her fingers over the keys as she picked up the pace. a fast almost demonic sounding reel.. a piece from Mistofflees.. Music was her life, her foothold on reality to keep her from slipping away...
