Appearance:
Ash is a fairly small 16 year old. She likes her petite look though. She is usually wearing skinny jeans and band T's with converse on her feet. Shes got some scars on her arm from when she used to cut after her mom and dad died. And a few more up her arm after she found out she had cancer. Speaking of which she currently has long dark brown hair that goes right below her shoulder blades and bangs cut off right above her caramel brown eyes. Shes fairly OK with her appearance.Personality:
If there was one thing she could change it would probably be her skin tone. She hates being really pale, she just cant seem to catch a tan no matter how hard she tries. Its not like she burns either, she just doesn't tan. She often puts some bronzer on her face to make her self like she has a bit more color to her complexion. The sun just isn't her friend, so shes slightly glad that she moved to Forks because its really rainy most of the time. She thought that living in Hawaii would give her a tan, but that doesn't help if you don't go out side much.
Asphodel isn't really one to dress preppy. She usually just dresses in what she thinks will be comfortable. Shes not a big fan of those girls that get all dressed up and put 4 pounds of makeup on just to look cool. In her opinion clothes don't make the person. She is guilty of buying some high priced things though, and she is a total sucker for shoes. She likes to wear really cute funky heels, like cool designs and crazy colors. But on her feet you can usually find a pair of converse. She has them in almost every color and pattern ever made, she is a total converse junky.
You will also usually find her in a pair of skinny jeans, usually denim or black, some times white or a different color. She likes how form fitting they are, and even though they are kind of tight she finds them really comfortable. For shirts band-T's are her preferred shirt. But she will wear almost anything as long as its long sleeved. She loves black graphic t-'s or black and white striped shirts. She chooses long sleeves to cover cuts and scars on her arm from several events. She doesn't like to talk about them much but if you ask she might tell you. Over all she is rather comfortable with her look. When shes at the hospital shes usually in Pajama's, but thats only when she has to go.
She doesn't dress preppy and she doesn't care about where she shops because as long as the clothes look good then she will wear them. She doesn't care if they come from the top designers or good will. A lot of people say she doesn't belong in the popular clique because of how she dresses. But her attitude really does say different. Most of the time. She has 3 main attitudes she goes by. Anger, Preppy Popular, and chill. Some times they can change from day to day and some times they can change from minute to minute.History:
She does hate the fact that she got tossed into the popular scene because of her brother but she sure as heck uses it to her advantage. But she does have a sweet side. As for her temper she is one not to be reckoned with. For her petite small frame she holds a lot of anger. People take her for granted for she is short and skinny but she can turn around and show you why you should do that in a matter of a few seconds. There has been countless occasions that she has proven herself bigger than her size. She has the fiery temper of a large buff murderer. And don't ever think that she wouldn't come to those terms. For whenever she gets mad she tends to black out a little bit and doesn't know what it is she could do or is doing.
But her preppy popular side is what can help get her threw having to be labeled as a popular. She learned a lot from her brother. She knows how to put others down to make her self feel better and she can be a total pregnant dog when she wants to. Shes mostly like that around her popular 'friends' because she knows thats how she has to act to fit in with them. This side of her is totally fake and she hates having to do it but she doesn't want to loose her popular position because she likes all the perks. Like the guys and the good lunch spots, shes so milking this for all its worth and she doesn't mind a bit. Just as long as no one really finds out.
The only people that ever really get to see the normal chill side of her is the Williams and her big brother. When shes around people that she feels comfortable with and shes not at school and her fake friends aren't any where to be seen then she is a totally chill and laid back person. She loves cooking for her friends because she likes to invent stuff in the kitchen and make things taste good. She also likes to color and she likes coloring books and crayons. She can be such a little kid when shes with her friends and thats her true side. She loves dinosaurs and chocolate milk with bendy straws, her brother and friends all say shes like a little kid but she just says she still has a sense of childhood in her heart. She just wished she could be like that all the time and not have to be some preppy popular person.
Ash is a sharpie addict and caffeine addict. But giving Ash coffee would probably be the worst thing a person could do. Because when she drinks coffee or an energy drink she is bouncing off the walls and shes all ready naturally hyper. But giving her caffeine is like lighting off a nuke. She also likes to draw on her self when she is in her hyper state, but she is also VERY rebellious if she is hyped up on energy drinks. This is another situation that can make her short dangerous temper spike up. Shes tried for so long to control her behavior but it is pretty unpredictable she hates it but she knows she has to live with it. Her brother has always told her that she got delt a bad hand in life but that its going to make her strong when she is older.
Secrets are a big part of every high schoolers personality and life. Some times a secret can make or break you and Ash is no exception to the rule. She has a fair share of secrets but most of them are just parts of her past that she doesn't want people to know. Like no one knows that her parents died, every one just thinks that shes living with her brother because her mom is on business in Paris and her father is in the Army, she doesn't want peoples sympathy. Which is also why no one knows that she had leukemia when she was little. She went threw chemo and lost all her hair, this was around when she was 12 and since then she has been in remission but shes been getting sick a lot more recently and her and her brother are scared that its going to come back.
She doesn't want to have that happen again because it made her feel so weak and like she couldn't do anything by her self. It also made her feel empty because while she was getting her treatment at the children's hospital all the other kids had their parents their with them crying and laughing. She had her aunt and her brother, the closest thing she got to a family at that time. Some therapists say that her parents dieing and her worrying about getting leukemia again. Life for her is a major roller coaster ride, she doesn't know when shes going to be shooting up or spirleing down, shes just waiting for the roller coaster to stop.

Asphodel Aurora Monroe was born to Charlie and Alex Monroe on October 31. The day was hot yet the wind was calm and the only sounds that could be heard threw out the house were Alex screaming in pain. They rushed her off to the hospital and at 11:46 pm Asphodel was born. But she wasn't a healthy baby. Ash was born with a really slow immune system and spent most of her time up until she was 1 staying in the hospital. She finally got a bit stronger and was able to go home. As she was growing up she couldn't really go out side and play with her friends and she had to be home schooled so she wouldn't have the chance to get sick. Ash hated being bottled up inside and decided that she was going to fight with her parents to let her go to a real school and her parents agreed since she hadn't showed any signs of getting sick in a while and she was SO excited. It was 6th grade and it was her first day of school, her parents had agreed to drive her. But on the way there something happened.
They were turning to go into the school parking lot and had the right away when they got slammed head on by a pick up truck. Both her parents died in the accident but since Ash was sitting in the back seat she was OK, just a little banged up. After the accident she became very close to her big brother and her and him had to move in with their aunt. Ash blamed her self because if she wouldn't of wanted to go to regular school then she wouldn't of had to be driven and her parents would probably still be alive. She shut her self off from every one around her because she wanted them to go on living their happy lives while she sulked in her bed room wishing that her parents were still alive.
She refused help from any one, that was until after her 13th birthday she started getting sick. It wasn't a normal sick because it kept getting worse and worse. Her Aunt and brother took her to the hospital where after several tests Ash was diagnosed with Leukemia. Everyone's worst fear had came true and Ash found her self practically living at the children's hospital in a tight clean safe room. She felt like a lab rat having to be there all the time and more importantly she felt weak and pathetic. The treatment they were giving her had caused her hair to fall out and Ash never went any where in public. After all, how man 13 year old girls are bald thanks to leukemia treatment? During the time she was in the hospital she started to develop really aggressive behavior and severe mood swings. She felt like her life was 1 big screw up and that all she was going to do in life was rot away in a hospital room and be tested for 100 different things every day.
Finally they got word that the treatment had worked and that her leukemia had gone away for the time being, but that it could come back if she wasn't careful. Her Aunt thought it might be a good idea to move her and her brother from Hawaii to California because she thought that it might be a good restart for them. Plus it had a really good children's hospital if she got sick again. Ash was actually happy because she had always wanted to go to California. She loved the beach and more importantly she wanted to go to Disney Land. What kid doesn't want to go there? She thought this was going to be perfect. But then her Aunt told her that she had to go to public school because her aunt had to work as a pastry chef. Ash begged to be home schooled because she liked staying home with her aunt and making pastry's and cooking in the kitchen and having yummy treats for when her brother got home.
Finally after lots of fighting she agreed to go to public school and got really nervous about starting her freshman year in a school with other kids because she never really got used to the whole school thing. She was mostly home schooled her entire life and pretty much only knew what her brother told her and what she saw in movies, so she got a pretty good idea. The small freshman tagged along with her older brother like she was a lost puppy. He was popular and every one knew him and she was like a little alien that just arrived on earth, no one knew her and she wanted to keep it that way. But apparently she had made the mistake of always hanging out with her brother so it only took a few days for her to be thrust into the popular life, but it didn't feel right because she knew that she didn't belong there.
Sure they had the money but Ash never dressed the part and she sure as heck didn't act the part, for long. She quickly picked up on the whole 'I'm better then you bow down to me' type of attitude. She studied how her brother acted around his friends and that’s how she started to act. It didn't take long for her to start fitting the popular mold and she hated it. High school was so full of back stabbing and at 1 second every one in school could know your secrets. She had built up such a good wall to keep every one from finding out her secrets that she actually started to forget them her self. Her brother and her have thankfully become very close over everything they have been threw and she wouldn't be able to do this whole high school thing with out him. He protects her and makes sure she takes her medicine so she doesn't loose it in the middle of a hallway at school or something.
But her brother was a senior and had to graduate. He got a full scholarship to collage and soon left Ash behind even though none of them wanted him to. Ash’s aunt was old and started to get sick and had to be put into a nursing home leaving Asphodel without any where to go. She was put up for adoption as a last resort and she was certain that she wasn’t going to get adopted till a guy adopted her. Apparently his daughter had died the year before that and he wanted another daughter. She was actually happy to be with a dad again, that was until he started hitting her when she would be having one of her bad emotional days. He wouldn’t just hit her but he would beat her a lot. She would always hide the bruises but after he put her in the hospital he claimed she did it to her self and was out of control so she got sent to a different family. Asphodel was happy to be sent to the new McLintock family because they were amazingly sweet and had loads of money. Shes starting to get sick again and is on the edge of her cancer returning but shes just trying to finish school and have a good time. Shes starting to develop some addictions though. Shes slightly addicted to cutting her self. She feels its a good stress relief when she started chemo and shes also started smoking pot a lot because its the only thing thats helping with the chemo. Shes trying to stop. Its just hard.
After she got in trouble with the law again and got adopted by a new family things really started looking up for her. Her new father is a world famous director and has done some of the biggest movies of the last few years, hes let Ash be in about 2 so far, she never had a big role just small ones but he is actually writing a movie that he wants to put her in, its sort of about her life and shes mega excited about that. Her cancer was showing signs of going away, but it soon took a diffrent turn and is back. Its in the weak stages and shes hoping that she can beat it.
