<strong>Emerald Anne Dante</strong><div class="floatright">(http://25.media.tumblr.com/tumblr_m7lh74KUGg1qah1tao1_500.png)<br/></div><br/>Born to an Italian nobleman/investor (Emilio Dante) and a New England industrialist heiress (Elizabeth Carpenter of the Rhode Island Carpenters), Emerald was raised in the lap of genteel privilege. Finishing school, social events, being taught to be a lady of New England nobility. Till around 16, when she vanished from the social scene for the better part of two years.<br/><br/>When she reappeared, the outgoing young girl had been replaced by a woman who was much more reserved with a few 'eccentricities'. She commissioned the construction of a new house boat, set about setting up her life on it and the few times she came ashore she always wore gloves, brought her own cutlery to events and never lingered too long in any location she visited without an extensive study of the history of the place with a particularly macabre interest in any and all violent events that might have occurred on the premises. Which allowed her to avoid the rooms/locations said events occurred.<br/><br/>Rumor has it, in addition to her practice of artistic writing, she engages in the occasional 'commission' for the right amount of funds for 'papers' to those who need it. Of course it is always through cutouts.<br/><br/>Recently, she has engaged more than a few agents to investigate her father's family in Northern Italy and looking into his history. Something about his family has drawn her eye. Of course, all she has to go on is his journals and business papers as he died when she was 3 years old.<br/><strong>EMERALD ANNE DANTE, Age 24, Dilettante</strong><br/>STR 8     CON 12     SIZ 10     INT 16     POW 16<br/>DEX 12     APP 15     EDU 18     SAN 80     HP 11<br/><strong>Damage Bonus: </strong>+0<br/><strong>Weapons: </strong>.32 Automatic  20%, damage 1D8<br/>Fist 50%, 1d33<br/>Grapple 25%, special<br/>Head 10%, 1d4<br/>Kick 25%, 1d6<br/><strong>Armor: </strong>none<br/><strong>Skills: </strong>Art: Calligraphy 70%, Climb 40%, Conceal 25%, Craft: Print 70%, Credit Rating 70%, Dodge: 25%, Drive Automobile 40%, Fast Talk 20%, First Aid: 20%, Hide: 10%, History 60%, Language: English(Native): 905, French 60%, Library Use 40%, Listen 30%, Occult 20%, Persuade: 15%, Photography 45%, Pilot: Boat 62%, Psychology 15%, Ride 20%, Sneak: 105%, Spot Hidden 60%, Swim:25%<br/><br/>INCOME & SAVINGS: 27,500<br/>Income: $5,500/yr<br/>Cash on Hand: $<br/>Savings: $2750 in Savings, $2750 in stocks and bonds<br/>Personal Property: Personal Houseboat worth $15,000 (inssured<br/>Adventuring Gear & Possessions: Press and Painting supplies (on boat)
