But there are only a few girls and a large amount of boys, so if you'd prefer to make a girl, by all means do so! ^u^

name;; Julia Bishop
nickname;;
↳ Jules
↳ Princess [Derogatory: often used as an insult due to her background.]
age;; 18 years old
gender;; Female
sexuality;; Straight -- No current interest
hostility;; Four
↳ Though she is not necessarily passive, Jules isn't a very violent person, usually finding ways to sneak out of a conflict. Her attitude does tend to get her in trouble, though, and due to her head-strong nature, she sticks up for herself. Suffice to say, she can get in trouble due to this feature.

personality;; Armed with a sharp tongue and stubborn edge, Jules is clever and spiteful. What she lacks in physicality she makes up with determination and intelligence, allowing her to set a goal and follow it till the end. This also translates as stubbornness, a quality she is all too guilty of having. This trait is accompanied by her warped sense of control. No matter the case, Jules' is always on-edge and alert, doing her best to have the upper hand within any given situation. It also allows her to control people, using various tactics such as lying or blackmail to get what she wants. Suffice to say, Jules is somewhat guilt-ridden, but her schemes do manage to get the job done.

strengths;; Adorned with charisma and personality, Jules uses her power-hungry persona to gain control of the situation, her ambition and need for status overpowering her lack of muscle. She has fairly good stamina, meaning she can take a punch, but if things go her way- she won't be taking the punches, but ordering them.

weaknesses;; As mentioned, Jules isn't as strong as most, and thus tries to stay out of fights. This can come across as cowardice, especially when she worms herself out of a violent situation at the expense of someone else. Her personality can even be called 'heartless', but really she's just the type to put herself first. The only exception to this rule is her younger brother, until the day comes where she gets as close to others as she is to him.

history;; Born and raised to the prestigious Bishop family, Julia began her life as a "Soc" herself, surrounded by luxuries from a very young age. The Bishops began as a small family in the poor side of town, decades before, until the ambitious and young Mr. Bishop climbed his way through the corporate tower, and left his poor parents where they started. He met his more well-off wife through his new-found wealth, and began a family; Mrs. Bishop eventually gave birth to a little boy, Michael, and girl, Julia. Soon, the prosperous Bishops became business partners with some of the other rich families in town, allowing the family to easily afford their new high-class lifestyle.

Even now, clear, glittering memories of toy-filled Christmases and lavish parties litter Julia's mind, making it obvious that her upbringing wasn't nearly as bad as the people she's gotten to know today. Despite this, Julia hasn't had the best life either, as when she neared her 14th birthday, she was met not with celebration, but with a warrant for her father's arrest. Instead of presents, she was gifted the knowledge that most of her family's money had come from embezzling funds from the companies her father worked in. He had cheated to get where he was, and destroyed plenty of families in the process.

Shortly after, the remaining family members were swept up in a tornado of lawyer fees and court documents, and their glamorous life sufficiently fell apart. Mrs. Bishop remained in the empty shell of a home they once lived in, and quickly tried to find the kids somewhere else to live. Her own, still-wealthy parents refused to take care of two children, leaving her with few options. Luckily, and despite Mr. Bishop's abandonment of his own parents, Julia and Michael were accepted with open arms by their paternal grandparents, who stilled lived in a bungalow in the poor east.

The change wasn't easy. In a community filled with those who despised her background, Julia had a much harder time getting friends. Her own Soc buddies grew uncomfortable with her connection to her father's betrayal, and the Greasers naturally disliked where she came from. But, if she had anything in common with her deceitful father, it was her ability to get what she wanted, no matter the means necessary. And if you want protection in a place out to get you, what can you really do?

If the Bishops have learned anything in their struggle for power, it's that if you can't beat 'em, join 'em.

family;; Though she has her grandparents, Jules doesn't really spend much time with them. Out of all her family, she's very close with her younger brother [Michael: 14 years old.], who doesn't approve of her social life, and tends to be a goody-two shoes. He stays out of trouble, not getting involved with any cliques whatsoever, and just dreams of leaving the town to do something better with his life. Even so, Jules loves him dearly and sees him as the one link to the life she used to have. She makes sure her status as a Greaser protects him as well as her.

height;; 5'8"

weight;; 120 pounds

appearance;; Though feminine and dainty, Jules is the epitome of pompous. Even with her status as a Greaser, her rich upbringing is still evident, making Jules unlikable to those who she determines inferior. Her appearance is also conformed by her upper-class childhood- her walk, talk, and facial expressions all being With a sway in her step and a head held high, Jules radiates confidence, one of the few remaining gifts of her youth. Her eyes are often narrowed and staring down the bridge of her nose, giving off a poised, yet snooty glare. Her emotions are often more composed, with her laughter contained to quieter chuckles, and her smiles or smirks more subtle than average. Over all, she has a calm, 'better-than-you' look, which is more or less uncontrollable on her part.

In a more aesthetic sense, Jules has deep, doe-like brown eyes, and a set of plump lips. Her skin is a pale brown, generally spotless and clear, except for the slightly darker freckles that dot her cheekbones. Her hair is unruly and naturally curled into small ringlets, her natural frizz framing her face and spilling out onto her mocha-colored shoulders. Jules' body is lanky and soft, with her lacking any real curves, but also not being necessarily bony.

// This is maybe my first application since the beginning of the year, due to schoolwork, so if anything doesn't make sense or needs to be elaborated (I will admit I'm a little ill and out of it rn), please feel free to say so! I saw the Outsiders ages ago so if something also doesn't fit into the canon, make sure to point it out.
