Her Punctualitious Fashionablness, the Belle of the Ball, Planner of Perfection, the Fabulous Perpetua

Description

Everything. Must. Be. Perfect. Regardless of the specifics of the event and setting, the day starts out hectic, with every little detail stressfully pursued to perfection. Nothing is allowed to go wrong. As things inevitably do, Perpetua will sink deeper into rage and/or despair, dragging the event and her hapless 'help' with her. The great day ends with the unfortunate 'staff' picking up the pieces, and Perpetua already moved on to planning tomorrow. It's her Big Day after all. And it's just going to be *perfect*.

Realm

The Big Day The physical details change over time, but regardless of the location, every day in Perpetua's realm begins with the preparations for a party revolving around her. Sometimes it's a birthday, or a graduation; sometimes, when she's in the mood, a wedding to a special (but invariably disappointing and replaced) lad or lady. Sometimes, when her mood sours, she hosts her own funeral.

Methodology

Perpetua does not believe in kidnapping or abduction, as such. All that terror and screaming is just far more work than it's worth and so unbecoming. Perpetua is far too kind for such terrible things and besides it deeply pains her the idea that anyone would not want to bask in her wonderful company. Perpetua offers people jobs of a lifetime, the chance to be part of something greater than they ever hoped for, to strive towards excellence, to be part of her masterpiece. She's so kind, so charming, so beautiful, how could anyone say no to her simple requests for their presence, their friendship, their skills. No one will ever appreciate them quite like Perpetua does. She sees diamonds and she just wants to help people shine.

Suggested Themes for Escapees

Party planners, servants, entertainers, chefs, tailors, jewelers, social butterflies, and general party personnel or otherwise entertaining or intriguing guests, as well as the occasional romantic interest to be Perpetua's husband or wife. (Note that while Perpetua considers herself to be a grand romantic her great love affairs are all exceptionally chaste, and like those of a Disney Princess, never progress as far as the wedding night. Something always goes inevitably wrong before any vows are exchanged.)

Common Creations - A clock-obsessed butler, a haunted pianist, a meticulously obsessive dress-maker, a despairing and doomed lover, a put-upon floral decorator; Regardless of their specific role, all Lost who escape the Big Day are shaped by the eternal and futile pursuit of perfection. Dusk and Dawn are common courts for such victims.
