Rosaria Winterquist
Return to The Bard's Concerto
Creator: Mageheart
Roleplay: The Bard's Concerto
Nickname: Rose, Rosie, Winter
Name/Nicknames: Rosaria "Rose/Rosie/Winter" Winterquist
Role: Guitarist
Gender/Pronouns: Cis girl, she/her.
Sexuality/Up for Romance: Aroace, so no on the romance.
Age: 17
Appearance: Rose ultimately dresses for comfort. Her go-to outfit is a combination of faded jeans, a dark t-shirt, a soft, gray hoodie, and her trusty pair of brown leather boots. She also always wears half of a silver best friend necklace.
Outside of her outfit style, Rose has messy brown hair that goes a little past her chest. She usually keeps it in a slightly messy braid. Her eyes are blue, and her skin has a slight tan to it. She's not too tall, but she's also not too short. She's basically average height for a girl her age.
Personality: Depending on who you ask, Rose is either a pessimist or a realist. She likes bringing reason to situations where reason has been mostly avoided. Whether this is by shooting down too-optimistic ideas or coming up with a strategy to handle a conflict, Rose tends to take the reserved, somewhat levelheaded and cynical approach. That's not to say that she comes off as cold and distant; she doesn't. She just has a tendency to express how done she is with the world.
(Her personality is heavily inspired by Misaki Okusawa in BanG Dream!.)
Connection to Instrument: Rose won a raffle with a friend a few years back. The raffle involved basic music gear - including an acoustic guitar. Rose didn't really want that kind of guitar; it wasn't really her style. But her friend wanted her to keep it so they could do duets together, so she did. Even when they went their separate ways, Rose still hung onto that guitar.
(Even though she would have rather played an electric guitar.)
Backstory: Rose's life hasn't really been remarkable. It's just been a normal, run-of-the-mill life. She has two parents. They care about her and she cares about them, but they're not especially close. She's an only child. She spent every year of her life in the same suburban town on the east coast of the US.
The one notable thing in her life was becoming friends with a girl named Anna. The two of them were close for years. Everyone always joked that they were joined at the hip. Anna was really into music - and even more into performance. Even though Rose didn't want to really perform, she often got dragged into Anna's antics.
At some point, they stopped being friends. Rose doesn't really talk about it now. She just goes about her day: going to school, working a part time job at the local convenience store, and heading home early in the evening to watch anime and read web comics.
Other: Even though they aren't friends anymore, Rose still wears the friendship necklace she got for Anna.
