THE HISTORY
Gracie lived a pretty normal life up until she was twelve. She was born Alexia Robbyn Zarian, and had an identical twin named Kaelie Anne. When they were twelve years old, their mother was killed in a car crash, which was incredibly hard on both the twins and their father but they got through it. Kaelie, the more outspoken and determined of the two twins, abruptly committed suicide when she was fifteen. Alexia, who found her, made the split-second sister to take her sister's place, figuring that the world needed Kaelie more than herself. She reported her own death and now, fifteen years later, not a soul in the world knows that it had been a lie.
When she turned eighteen three years later, Alexia ("Kaelie") changed her name to Grace Alexia, saying that she wanted to start anew. It was assumed by all that the middle name was a tribute to her dead sister, but the truth was that it was a tribute to herself - her one last hold on the life that she abandoned when she decided to be her sister. Within a year, she applied and was accepted to Cornell medical university outside of NYC, her major being genetic science. She was fascinated with the idea of twins with identical DNA for obvious reasons, and if she was being perfectly honest, she wanted to make sure that there were no loopholes - that no one could ever catch her.
She is now in her sophomore year, and has essentially dedicated her entire like to assisting others. Even those who hate her or that she heavily dislikes can expect a thoughtful listener and even helper if they need it in Gracie. At nineteen, she often seems incredibly child-like with her extreme innocence and preference towards the activities a small child might enough, but in terms of emotional development, she's one of the most mature there is - it just doesn't show.
THE FRIENDS
Just about anyone who has ever met her would probably fall into this category. Even if you try, it's nearly impossible to hate her. Gracie would simply blame herself for your anger and apologize incessantly, trying to repair whatever damage she had done so that the opposer would be content again. It's extremely rare for her to have a negative word to say about a person, and in such a case, it's generally about people who purposefully tried to hurt others - something she simply can't comprehend.
THE ENEMIES
Probably none. Unless you come up with the most epic plot I've ever heard of and manage to apply it to her while she remains in-character, it just wouldn't happen. One-sided dislike on another character's part, perhaps, but that's about as far as it would go - even if she disliked a person, she would not openly say so and she would never insult them or try to offend them or even defend herself. The only exception would be a person hurting someone she cared about or even anyone, in which case she would probably try very nicely to ask the person to stop.
THE LOVERS
Not too much room here. She's only had sex five times, with three different men, two of which were boyfriends. Grace is hardly the promiscuous type, so fuckbuddies are out of the question. Also, only been drunk three times, one of which was in Heath's home with only him around. One of the times she was drunk resulted in a one-night-stand, so if you want your character to fill up that slot, go for it... but, like I said, only once. Otherwise, I don't see too much going down in this area.
She needs attention. Go for it. <3
