Hardly a thing is every out of place for the prim young woman, from her raven dark hair to her deftly applied makeup and signature red lip. Her skin is a warm soft brown color, and her eyes a deep soulful brown that are typically bright and full of day dreams.<br/><br/><strong>Personality:</strong>Day Dreamer | Passionate | Romantic | Optimist | Earnest | Thoughtful | Empathetic | Private<br/><strong>History:</strong><div class="spoiler_container"><div class="spoiler_header" onclick="hideSecond (this);" role="button">Because it's long</div><div class="spoiler_body">Born the youngest of three daughters to Annette and Stéphane Lavigne there was no doubt of a life of privilege and opportunity. Her mother was from a modest family, but she had wed a man known to expertly handle the finances of the rich, powerful and famous. Stéphane had been born to an immigrant family in Monaco, his father a banker, and shown a flair for handling money that had landed him a job in the bustling, tiny country where he met the woman who would be Stéphane's mother, traveling after finishing her graduate degree. He inherited his father's skills, and worked hard to make a name for himself, branching out from just banking, where his first job started, to being a financial advisor. His discretion and wisdom earned him fame, and saw him building a fortune of his own, wisely invested, and traveling frequently. On a visit to a client in the LA area he met Annette and was instantly smitten, courting her and marrying her quickly. To Renisha's mind the legacy of her grandparents, and her parents romances set a high bar.<br/><br/>As a child she was brightly inquisitive, given every advantage possible with her father's money and the comfort of the lavish mansion they grew up in; in contrast though sometimes at school she was teased, bullied by white students for the color of her skin, for her accent, growing up speaking French as much as English. It confused her, to have her lovely brown skin, her parent's skin that she thought was gorgeous, as a mark against her. Annette gently spent time with her, as she had both Angeline, the eldest of her daughters, and Marianne, the middle, explaining the legacy of her own family as African American with deep roots into the country from its very beginnings. While beginning with slavery, there was more to her people than captivity. Their joy and perseverance through a history of horrors kept them surviving for many generations in Savannah, Georgia. The sharp contrast in her parents histories often brought them closer rather than pushing them apart, and while the struggle of unfairness was vivid, Renisha's parents strength and protectiveness was always stronger. Her parents built up their children's worth before they were torn down by microagressions and racism, which continuously built extremely warm, tight bonds with her sisters.<br/><br/>Renisha moved from her private elemental school to a middle school, her grades decent but her flair for decorating and imagination finally tapped into when she found the theater program. There she threw herself into planning the sets and costumes, though she was horrible at sewing and accepted that was one skill she would never have. But planning, oh that was something that brought her to life, and seeing the first full production that went off perfectly with her work paid off thrilled her. Her room became a stash of do it yourself project ideas, creating new backgrounds, arranging pictures and developing an aesthetic that developed strongly over time of timeless elegance with a dash of fairy tale fancy. Through high school she threw herself into the theater program at her very expensive arts high school, making a name for herself with inventive solutions and a sense of how to stage the perfect visuals. She became the favorite of the theater teacher, a Mr. Agreste, and spent hours researching every play and designing an over all feel for the look. Making things pretty felt like a bit of magic that she could give the world, and the romantic plays particularly had her smitten.<br/><br/>Of course, with her intense focus and high standards, not to mention her shyness when just mixing socially with people, Renisha scarcely dated and it rarely lasted long. When she was planning something, working with a team she could be firm, stubborn about her vision, but when it was just her, without a goal, the girl felt listless, uncertain of her voice at times. She spent far more time reading and day dreaming about romance than actually seeking it out, and when at sixteen her eldest sister Angeline became engaged Renisha begged to help plan the wedding. Happily the wedding planner hired by her parents was open to letting her tag along and consult, knowing her sister so well. The wedding was a beautiful success, and Renisha realized that wedding planning was all she wanted in life. A way to give people a bit of magic on a special day. Ms. Mileur was open to her interning with the company, and she eagerly signed on, regardless of the fact that her parents wouldn't have asked her to work while she was in school.<br/><br/>Any time that might have been given over to dating or hanging out with friends was now consumed by working for Ms. Mileur, the theater and her school work or her family. She didn't mind, though, and graduated with decent grades, going on to UCLA for a business degree. Her parents, seeing her passion, agreed to finance the start of her own company if she wanted to strike out on her own as long as she graduated with honors. Never as academically minded as Marianne she leaned heavily into her sister for help with her classes and sought out tutors and study groups, focused on school and her ongoing internship as college years blurred by and she managed to graduate top of her class, and with a strong name of her own in the wedding space in a particular circle. Soon after graduation Ms. Mileur revealed that, after years in the industry, she was ready to retire and she had set up all her vendors to continue working with Renisha, encouraging her to make the business her own.<br/><br/>Floored by her mentor's gift, and with her parents money, Renisha opened her own business, Dreams Come True. The first few years were hard, even with the advantages she had from her parents and her mentor, and she worked crazy hours, taking on lots of business to make a strong name for herself. But she managed it, becoming a premier wedding planner, known to make magic happen for her brides. Once she was operating in the green on her own she asked her parents to set up a scholarship fund for girls graduating from the local area wanting to go into business of their own, and then a second fund of a business starting grant to help other's pursue their own ideas. Her parents, with all their children grown and two grandchildren from Angeline already, were happy to agree.<br/><br/>It was a recent bride that ended up mentioning the dreamy valley of Stardew to her, and Renisha decided to move from the busy city now that she had made a name for herself to a slower paced home where she might actually learn how to relax and have a life beyond work. She still hopes to keep planning weddings, or happy events in general though. </div></div><br/><strong>Favorite Thing?:</strong>Love Stories<br/><strong>Least Favorite Thing?:</strong>Plans going sideways (well, really, spiders)<br/><strong>Hobbies: </strong>Floral arranging, Pinterest, baking, theater, set designing, sewing, gardening<br/><strong>Cat or Dog?:</strong>Neither, yet<br/><br/><strong>Link to Player Ons and Offs: </strong>Ons and Offs (https://elliquiy.com/forums/index.php?topic=15298.0) It should be noted Renisha is very inexperienced and would be going slowly with any intimacy.
