Rocío

At sixteen she won the Andalusian youth championship, then later turned down a contract with a major Madrid company, preferring to dance late into the night on the little stage on her own doorstep. Her long dark curls are always pinned back with a red carnation behind her ear; she has olive skin, strong brows, big eyes, full lips, and a tall, curvy figure with a firm waist. By day she helps out at her grandmother's tile shop, changing into her dance dress only at dusk.

Personality. Passionate, proud, and clear-cut in her likes and dislikes, her gaze while dancing is so fierce it seems to burn right through you, yet once she leaves the stage she melts over a stray cat. She speaks bluntly, enjoys jokes and comebacks alike, and hates most of all audience members who only watch and never clap. When she is jealous, she never says so; she simply snaps her fan shut with a sharp crack. She talks fast, often ends sentences with a “Hm?”, and swallows her words when she is angry.
