Marissa Rinaldi
NAME: Marissa Rinaldi
AGE: 45
SOCIAL CLASS: Upper Class
STATUS: Married
OCCUPATION: Housewife
PLAY-BY: Lena Heady
BLOOD STATUS: Pureblood
EYES: brown
HAIR: black
SKINTONE: white
HEIGHT & WEIGHT: 5'2", slim with a few curves
DISTINGUISHING MARKS:
OVERALL PHYSICAL DESCRIPTION: Marissa has a slightly dark appearance. She has dark wavy hair and her eyes are of a dark brown. She has thin lips which seem to grow even thinner when she’s displeased. Her eyes often narrow when she thinks the person she looks at is beneath her. She has a thin straight nose and was very beautiful in her youth, making her the pride of her parents. She carries herself upright, has an elegant step and knows how to appear to her best advantage in public just like her mother taught her.
NON-MAGICAL SKILLS: Marissa is very good at and creative when it comes to all sorts of needlework. She caught on quickly when her mother taught her in young years and she'd prided herself on the praise of her governess who had made her knit, embroider, crochet or sew. In her youth she was taught french, but she didn't keep up the practice as she grew older and only very little of what she learned remains.
MAGICAL SKILLS: Due to her education as a young girl Marissa is skilled in house-holding spells which make needlework easier and a few cleaning spells, but she never learned to cook. Other than that she's quite apt at Charms as it had been her favorite subject at school including every pretty spell.
WEAKNESSES: Marissa can sometimes come off as cold and aloof due to her pride she was taught and she has a hard time apologising as she often times doesn't think her place to do so. On the other hand she can be a bit lax with her children at times though and tends to spoil them now and then. In her youth she was easily manipulated even though her supreme exterior covered that weakness well from most - apart from her husband. Still she grew up to resist even his superior manipulating techniques and prides herself on not falling for his tricks anymore.
STRENGTHS: She is a very dedicated woman and shows her strength in seeing a project through to the end. She likes to make decisions, but is able to still keep her face by running her decisions by her husband and make it look like he made the decision so as to not seem improper or put him to shame. She can be a strong woman, but knows how to hide it in society to appear proper and the perfect demure wife which is expected from her.
QUIRKS & HABITS: Marissa can be a bit pedantic when it comes to housekeeping. She wants her house to be tidy and clean at all times and takes good care of the furniture so that it still looks like new years after she had it bought. It is the same with decoration. The vase with flowers needs to stand exactly in the middle of the table and embroided table cloths must not have any crooked stitches. She has come to try and bite her lip whenever she feels the need to move the furniture around for it to stand on the perfectly right place, but she doesn't always succede.
OVERALL PERSONALITY DESCRIPTION: Marissa is a proud woman. She is proud of being at the top of society, proud of her successful husband and her family. She wouldn't want to change her position in life for any amount of gold. Marissa is also well read and good at the professions she chooses to persue. When she wants to learn something or achieve a new skill, she is determined and follows through with it until the very end. She hates to admit defeat, but can do so but at the cost of her happiness for a few weeks. She loves her children dearly and wants the very best for them, but sometimes she feels a bit distant to them as if she weren't quite in touch with them. She likes to explain it with her children being a different generation and that this was bound to happen even though it's nagging at her constantly.
BIRTH PLACE: Kent
PARENTS: Cecilie Fawley, Udian Rochester (ask Julia for more information on those )
SIBLINGS: Alphonso Rochester (twin)
SIGNIFICANT OTHER: Adrian Rinaldi
CHILDREN: Sloan, Charlotte and Melanie Rinaldi
OTHERS: sister in-law Aria Beauclaire nee Rinaldi
CHARACTER HISTORY: The purity of the Rochester family is almost extinct. The last pure line is the one of Thonan Rochester and his wife Daratris Rowle. Despite having four children they only had only one son, Udian, the third child of the last Rochester line.
His eldest sister Wanda was a blood traitor and married a half blood man, together they got two sons and a daughter but the Rochester family didn’t care for her anymore.
His second sister, Victoria, married a pureblood wizard, but didn’t have children.
Udian’s younger sister Bristine married a pureblood wizard as well and they got three daughters and one son.
As Udian saw it as his task to regain the glory of the Rochester family, his father arranged a marriage with the daughter of a great pureblood family.
However that was the time Udian became attracted to Cicelie at first sight, or rather she woo him and have her way with him. She allured him into breaking up with the fiancé his father had found for him, which angered the fiancé’s family. While Udian’s parents were angry in the beginning, once they met Cicelie, they were actually proud of their son. She was simply beautiful and any man could wish on marrying her, apart from her being from a just as ancient pureblood line.
Together they had twins.
Despite that Cicelie barely shows that she cares for anyone, she really does. Both she and her husband expect their children to do good. If they would act different than expected they would blame themselves for being bad parents.
Even though the Rochester family only belonged to the Middle-Class or the upper end of it, Udian managed to set up a marriage for Marissa with an Upper-Class man, or rather a boy as they were in their seventh year at school when the match was made. Marissa had know she'd had to be grateful that her demeanour and beauty had gotten her into this fortunate engagement, but she hadn't at all been impressed by the one she would marry. She thought of Adrian Rinaldi as arrogant and wasn't at all impressed by how he conducted himself. At that time she had wished for a sweet boy who didn't act up and got on her nerves. It didn't take long however for Adrian to woo her and already on their wedding day Marissa saw the worth of this match as she'd come to like her partner for life. In the next fer years she even came to love him and they had three children.
