Genevieve Renée LeBlanc
Lomari



Age:  35

Gender:  Female

Primary Occupation:  Infiltration Specialist - Alliance Federal Marshal Service

Secondary Occupation (optional):  Infiltration Specialist - Alliance Navy (Reserve)

Appearance:  Genevieve is lean from an active childhood and more active adulthood. She stands at a moderate 5' 7'' with dark hair and eyes. She resembles a large cat with coiling muscles and slow movements.

Faceclaim:  Elodie Yung

Initial Personality:  While others may be the ones to go in guns blazing, knocking down doors and taking names, Genevieve is subtle and elegant. She's the assistant you hired last week who works late with you every day and creates a rapport before stabbing you and pushing you out the window. Like a cat, she is quiet and stern, almost cold in the way she interacts with the world. She knows best and does not tolerate insubordination, and prefers to do things on her own than rely on someone who won't get the job done right. Many have called her frigid and aloof. Some have called her confrontational.

Underlying Personality:  Gen still believes in the good of mankind. She is hopeful and starry eyed when it comes to the future, despite the crumbling of her faith in the government she'd done so much work for. She believes that she can and should help those who can't help themselves and strives in all things to help others, even if they don't think she'd helping them at the time. She thought she was helping people in the war, during the bloody missions for the Alliance, and she has had a hard time coming to grips with the fact that maybe she was harming more than she was helping. Full of guilt and the need to do better, she continues to try to help the less fortunate in her own way.

Other History:  Genevieve has been competitive all her life. Growing up with four older brothers in an Alliance household meant she had to fight tooth and nail to get the attention and praise of her parents. It also meant being the one daughter upon  which her mother could lavish all of her expectations and vicarious dreams. Both of her parents were heavily involved in the hard work of running the government, so most of the actual raising of the children was left to their Nanny and private tutors. This led to five children with mild abandonment complexes and a pathological need for praise and attention. They were constantly one-upping each other when it came to extracurriculars, grades, and trouble just to get the barest crumbs of their parent's limited attention. While this manifested itself in the need to shine in the public eye for 50% of her brothers, she and the other 50% eventually took to working hard on their own and fading into the shadows, pushing back against their innate desire to be noticed.

With her parents being both Officers in the Alliance and being known to work with members of Parliament on occasion, the family was constantly under scrutiny from the media as well as the government itself. To keep up appearances of being magnanimous and well-to-do, (and thus to be seen as possessing the virtues of the Alliance), the LeBlanc name became synonymous with Charity Fundraisers and Relief Auctions. As a child, Gen found the whole parade distasteful, although she couldn't put her finger on why, exactly. It wasn't until she'd reached adolescence that her older brother, Louis, explained to her that it was all a show. All the money raised simply paid for the event itself, over and over and over again. No charity's were really helped and no one on the Rim ever really received relief.

It was around this time that Genevieve stopped allowing herself to be dressed up and presented to the wealthy and influential like an accessory to her mother, and instead started rebelling and getting into trouble with her brother Pierre. She insisted on taking martial arts classes with him, despite her mother's disapproval of such an extracurricular activity, and the pair of them used each other to get stronger. It was during this time that she decided she was going to join the Navy the moment she was able.

As an adult, this distaste for the lies of wealth as well as her deep need to be better than her peers at everything she did carried over into her military career. She was constantly having to work harder and better than her peers, needing to prove to them and herself that she could stand on her own.

It wasn't until she was assigned to the Special Infiltration and Intelligence Task Force that she finally felt like she was right where she needed to be. She felt whole and complete. She'd found her bliss and had gotten there by herself. Her family name hadn't provided her with any shortcuts, and she'd had to overcome the prejudices of the military complex on her own, but she'd finally done it. She didn't need the approval of her parents any longer, she approved of herself.

After the Broadcast, she decided to be more proactive in her future and joined Ariel Law Enforcement Academy, and eventually was approved for a position in the Alliance Federal Marshal Service. Sure, most of this was fueled by guilt, but that wasn't what was important...

Pierre: (40)
Clearly the muscle in the family, Pierre and Gen fought like cats and dogs growing up but had the strongest bond.
