{Personal Information}
Personality:
Nabby was named after her mother, Abigail, but she is far from the determined woman her mother is. Although Nabby is extremely hard-working, doing all of the chores on the farm that her mother tells her to, she feels that she is weak and not as good as the rest of her family. Nabby has a social anxiety problem: she dislikes talking to people she doesn't know well. However, she can be quite cheerful and open around her family, especially her cousins close to her age. She also always tries to do the right thing, even if it causes problems for others.
But, because of this, many people think that she is a snob. She wishes she could get over her problem, but so far she hasn't been able to. Although her father praises her for her "modesty and reserve" she feels trapped in the cage she has made for herself.
Nabby likes animals a lot, though. She feels that she can talk to them, because she knows that they will never judge her or say anything bad about her. Her favourite animal is her cat, Halcyone, an orange striped tabby. She likes horses as well, but just can't seem to get the hang of riding the things. She falls off a lot, so she has avoided riding them whenever possible.
Likes: her family, peace and quiet, animals
Hobbies: reading, sewing, embroidery, going for walks
Hates: going to parties, the British
Fears: meeting new people, something happening to her father
Strengths: hard-working, honest, loyal
Weaknesses: gullible, shy, poor horseback rider, a little spoiled
{History Information}
Birthday: July 14, 1765
Birthplace: Quincy, Massachusetts
Family: Father: John Adams; Mother: Abigail Adams; Brothers: John Quincy (14), Charles (6), Thomas (4)
Background: Nabby was the first-born child of John and Abigail Adams, and for the first two years of her life, was an only child. When her brother was born, she was a little jealous, but gradually overcame these feelings and is now quite fond of him. Her first years were very happy and rather uneventful, with Nabby unaware of the political trouble brewing up about her.
Nabby was educated in her home, learning how to read, write, cook, play music and sew as all proper young ladies were supposed to. She considers herself best at sewing, and can do quite fine embroidery. She was particularly bad at music, though and was allowed to quit trying recently, much to her relief. She also enjoys reading.
Her father spent a lot of time away from home, especially recently, with the problem of running a rebellion from far away. She is happy to hear the latest news from him whenever her mother recieves a letter. Nabby also tries her best to help her mother out, now that she must run the farm on her own with two very young children.

Sample RP Post:
Etienne jumped in alarm at being struck by something in the side. He immediately whirled around to see a very lovely young woman as the object of his surprise, and felt his books tumbling down to the floor and falling all about his feet.
"Oh, hello, I seem to be... er..." He was entirely lost for words. Who was this woman? He supposed that she must be a servant, judging by her clothes, but he had never seen her before. Her accent, from what little he heard of it, seemed to be English or Irish or something... he was always getting them confused. Wherever she was from, she was not French.
And she was also scanning the bookshelves! So few people actually came into the library to look at the books, although it was the purpose of the room. And in his favourite section of the library! He marvelled that she recognized him, though--he always tried to make a business of being unobtrusive and, hopefully, invisible.
But he was rather dazed by all of this, and simply stood staring at all of the havoc about him (and the lovely young woman), as though it was happening to someone else.
