••CASE FILES••
[/size]
Aurora looks like your classic upper-middle class lady; Long blond hair that goes down to her lower back, with a soft wave. She often has her hair up, properly, around her family; especially her mother, and guests. But when she is on a contract, it is usually pulled back messily depending on the job. Her eyes are a very light grey which helps getting men to ignore the fact they might have just been robbed…until later. Often, Aurora gives off a happy, free-spirited woman vibe who is more into trade rather than marriage.
Aurora is average in height, standing at about five foot five inches, with a slim, but athletic build. Athletic enough to hold her own if something ever went wrong with a contract job. Her style is elegant but functional and comfortable. In the day, she of course wears classic Victorian dress for her class, or the situation she is in. And often it does not bother her, Aurora in fact does like dressing up for parties or meetings she attends with her father. But by night, she’ll with delightfully trade in the elegantly embroidered dresses for a more simple dress and shawl, or even a blouse with trousers, depending on the contract detail of course.
Tattoos, very rare and often look down upon, Aurora does not have. Not only would it be impossible to hide, but she had no means for one anyways. Her skin is in the middle of pale and tan, although she does have a one and a half inch long scar on her right hip.

(Personality)
Aurora will give off a proper and elegant womanly vibe if you are stuck up, rich, mean, and only think of yourself. But in all truth, when she is with her father in an old manor with something valuable inside, she dislikes you with a burning passion of a thousand suns. The only person she likes to socialize with is her father; Aurora loves attending his meetings for his jewelry store. Other than that she isn’t one for parties, tea get-togethers, or even being courted; Aurora would rather be in the library with a good book or working on a contract.
Her extensive amount of reading, contract thieving, and past etiquette classes, make Aurora very well rounded, and adaptable. If her dislikes were not obvious before, Aurora is a rebel against what her mother finds acceptable. Those stuck up, rich, and overly annoying women who sit around and gossip is the group Aurora tends to avoid. Aurora has a fun side, people who are too serious are completely ignored by her, which has cost her some moments with courting; much to her mother’s dislike, but Aurora can barely flirt enough to pick-pocket for fun anyways.
Speaking of contracts, Aurora prefers to work alone; but will work with her father on any high-profile ones. New people, whom Aurora does not know the skills, she does not trust very much. Of course those high-profile contracts also lead to Aurora finding something else she likes…something…shiny, and not her target; which has almost blown her cover once or twice. Finally, some secrets she has kept, mainly from her mother, is that she will drink, off and on, with her father and has made the mistake of getting drunk once. She also had her classic girl-moment. Aurora did have a crush for a local thief she found on the street, watched, but has only seen twice.
••EVIDENCE••
(History)
Aurora was born to Leonardo Morganti, a jewelry store owner and by-contract thief (secretly) and Claudia Morganti, on a warm summer day. Leonardo, Leon to close family, owned a successful jewelry store in London and courted Claudia, the daughter of another upper-middle class family, before marrying; and both wanted a child…maybe two. For you see, Claudia wanted a proper girl; while Leon wanted a boy so he could teach him the tricks of the trade. But alas, fate would have it that when Claudia gave birth to their first child; Malik, he did not survive the first month; both were devastated.
Two years later, Claudia got her wish and gave birth to a girl, Aurora. But she would anything but perfectly proper. At the age of five, Aurora oversaw her father coming and going from contract jobs, he had a secret thief-life if you wish to put it that way, and his daughter was completely intrigued by his secret passion. It was at the age of eight, when Leon found his daughter spying on him, and brought her to one of his business meetings when the nanny could not make it to work, for as she was sick. From then, he taught her the tricks of his trade; but kept it from Claudia, so Aurora was not sent off to finishing school.
Aurora continued her thief practice and her mother’s etiquette classes; balancing both and be able to have time for other studies and reading. It was on one job, when she was eighteen did things almost ended for Aurora.
It was a dark August night, late…very late. Aurora and her father were contracted by a feuding family that wanted another family’s precious ruby that the families were fighting over, for what seemed like centuries. It was this night that, after getting in, grabbing the precious gem, and trying to get out did things go wrong. Aurora, not carrying the jewel, went ahead to make sure the coast was clear for her father so he could escape through the gates. But as soon as he was safe, Aurora did not hear a family guard come up behind her, and not really knowing she was a girl but it didn’t matter really, and tackled her to the ground with a knife. Aurora was able to fight him off and flee, but not without earning a scar along her right hip.
It took a few weeks for Aurora to recover from the ordeal; but it would take several months before Leon would allow her to reenter the world of thieving.

(roleplay) -From another character of mine-
Deidre mentally smacked herself, 'Why did I open my big mouth...I don't know because I am an idiot...yeah...that's it.' She sighed a bit out loud, not out of being bored with the situation but how she forgot that...and after cursing herself, while listening to the two, she was going to rebuttal. But as she started, her phone started going off, playing "Last Resort".
"Shit..." She mumbled and pulled out her phone. "Gimme like...one minute..." She walked away a bit to answer. While talking all that could really be heard was a loud angry voice on the other end. 'Shit...snaps...crabs...' Deidre thought as the phone call ended. Sliding the phone back to her pocket, she took a deep breath and walked back.
"Ok...So....this is very weird. First, Lukas yes to the first part. Two, I never said that. And ok, sure if you want...no sarcasm." Her voice was strained...although calm, but very strained; and turned her attention to Brooke. Deidre opened her hands to show she had no lighter in them, just in case you know...and on orders. "Yes I am a smartass. It's how I am, can't help it. Second, yes that is true; but hey I'm not looking for someone to completely make out with; not my biggest forte on the planet. And third, all that you had to do is ask. No offense to Lukas in anyway whatsoever; but I'm not one to really fight over a guy." She was rambling, but she was done.
And very uncomfortable.
Very.
"So, I propose...on orders...is that I don't get thrown into a lake preferably. She doesn't blow me into the water; and I...well...I don't know what I would do. I just don't want to go back to detention." Deidre muttered this time. She wasn't one to apologize, but technically/untechnically she wasn't so it wasn't all bad. But she knew that something was gonna happen that she didn't like.
