APPEARANCE
Clove is about 5'7 tall. Unlike most girls of her stature, she's not willowy thin and waife like - rather, she's strong and built like a graceful warrior. Svelte, lithe like a wildcat with the attitude to match. Clove is half Korean and half English, and her features reflect this.
She has a thick wave of just below shoulder length brunette hair, usually reined back into a ponytail complete with a peach hued ribbon. Her eyes are what some may call unsettling - for it looks as though they contain part of the sun itself, blazing out at whoever looks. If one looks, there are faint dapples of freckles nearly everywhere on her body - across her shoulders, her hands, her knees, and most obviously her cheeks and nose.
Due to her work, there are nearly always small flecks of gold leaf or dried clay on her hands, unless she's specifically cleaned herself up for an event.
PERSONALITY
HISTORY
Born in Incheon, South Korea to a Korean father and English mother, Clove was raised in Korea for the majority of her childhood.
A month after her 11th birthday as her family were returning from the airport after a holiday abroad in the U.K, their car collided with another and both of her parents were killed instantly. Clove survived, but was hospitalized for several weeks. Suga and Sarangerel were cremated and their ashes were spread along the Incheon coastline; Clove returns to Incheon every year on the anniversary of their death to remember them.
After the death of her parents, Clove was raised by her maternal family in Cornwall, U.K until she left home at 19 and moved to the United States. When first arriving, Clove regularly moved between locations in order to advertise her work, however has recently settled down in (AU location).
OCCUPATION + INCOME
Clove works as a potter. Her specialty is that of the Japanese art of kintsugi, where broken ceramics are repaired using gold and silver leaf (though she also produces custom requested tablewear sets such as bowls and plates, along with various purely artistic sculptures and candle holders).
She works primarily at her own home, though for certain events she will set up a stall and work outside (e.g festivals and skill centers), where she can market her wears directly to the public. Although she has an adequate income, it's purely for a creative release as the amount of money she received in her parent's will and from their life insurance has ensured she has no financial troubles. However, Clove is frugal with her money, preferring to save when possible, and spends very little on luxuries.
HOME
If she lives in the city:
- apartment 165; medium sized apartment (references: x, x, x)
- plants everywhere; trailing plants in hanging pots, bonsais in every corner, little succulents along the windowsill
- the only fabric you'll find completing the apartment (eg curtains, couch, bedding etc) is cotton. she loves cotton!
- the interior design is neutral; creams, light browns, light greys etc
- big fan of earthenware; you'll find no plastic in here
- the whole place smells of lavender
- she uses miniature pumpkins as decorations
- her workbench is an absolute mess; there's clay everywhere, sacks of it are propped on the desk's legs, and files of gold and silver leaf are always scattered on the shelves surrounding it
- there's a little herb garden on the balcony which overlooks the city
If she lives in a house:
- it's not actually a house; it's an old, relatively large Victorian orangery/conservatory that's been converted into a home; the framework is mostly original, however the panes of glass have all been replaced several times; water, electricity and gas has all been supplied via pipes/wires; references: x, x, x)
- plants everywhere. big plants. LOTS of nice smelling herbs and roses
- her bed is literally on the ground, and it's usually messy/unmade; it's at the far end of the building ( x )
- there's a small kitchen that's been added on to the main building; she insisted upon this because she LOVES to cook ( x )
- there's a small bathroom next to the kitchen which looks like this ( x )
- her pottery workspace is within the orangery itself and basically has a whole section to itself: she has a large sprawling desk, where unfinished works are always sat; there are sacks of clay and neat files of pressed gold and silver leaf everywhere; nearby wicker baskets and wooden chests are teaming with completed sets of earthenware wrapped in paper, waiting to be picked up by those who bought them; the large sinks she has underneath the far window are usually messy and covered with streaks of clay
