Appearance:
The first feature you notice upon setting your sights on Aliana is the signature red Cabernet hair inherited from her mother, which she mostly wears down or in a ponytail. In terms of style, it can definitely be described as grungy-casual. Her outfits includes T-shirts, jeans, sneakers, loafers or boots and a leather or varsity jacket. As expected, most of her ensembles will contain a black item, as it is her favorite color. In terms of accessories, she will wear necklaces, rings and bracelets to add some spice to her outfits. However, her four inseparable companions are a pair of sunglasses, earrings, her earbuds and a gold necklace with the initials A and E in two separate circular pendants. You will only see Ali wearing things like sundresses and shorts during the summer, and only in very important social events -and after much insistence from her mother- will you see her all decked out. Makeup-wise, she keeps it simple with just mascara and watermelon-flavored lip gloss; occasionally a winged liner. She has four continuous piercings in each ear along with a cartilage ring. Ali has no tattoos, but she has a fair share of faded scars on her legs from falling off her bike as a child.
Personality:
Aliana Cabernet comes from two very powerful, influential people, and it shows in the way she presents herself. She's a charming, strong-willed, confident young woman, who expresses herself with poise and eloquence. She is witty, sarcastic, with a dark sense of humor and laid back attitude. With her siblings, friends and lovers, she is caring, affectionate and loyal to the core, and will defend her own tooth and nail. When it comes to romance, Ali loves hard, deeply and intensely. She will go out of her way to make her significant other feel happy, love and safe.
Those who know her will say Ali gets what she wants in life, and she’ll run over anyone who tries to get in her way... In a way. She definitely knows the value of being stubborn until she gets what she wants (and that sometimes you gotta be a bitch about it), but she isn’t stupid or reckless, and she isn’t about to let one wrong move jeopardize her entire M.O. She is also the rebellious firecracker of the house, frequently lashing out against her mother and the expectations she puts on her.

History:
Aliana Rebecca Cabernet was born to parents Rebecca and Andrew nearly eighteen years before, on the sunny afternoon of that 31st day of July. She had a fun, happy childhood, her every need and whim taken care of by their parents and their juicy bank account. As a girl, Ali thrived in being a good girl. She would follow her parents' rules without question, wanting nothing more than to please them. Her mother was her idol: the one person she looked up to and wanted to be with as an adult. However, as the years went by, the expectations became higher and more demanded, and Ali became more aware of her mother's true self. Although smart and charming, her mother was a very shallow woman, who lived to flaunt their social standing and keep up the appearance of being a picture-perfect family. This did not sit well with Ali, who slowly began to grow resentful.
When she reached her thirteenth birthday, Aliana finally became tired of being 'the good girl'. She began to rebel against her mother and her expectations: refusing to attend events, constantly arguing with her, sneaking out of their summer home to smoke pot in the tree house, and so on. This lead to Ali's relationship with her parents getting shaky, and she began to take comfort on her best friends. At the age of fifteen, she had her first relationship with a woman, coming out as bisexual. Although the relationship was short lived, this further strained the relationship with her mother. In the end, Rebecca cared more about the family's public image than about her daughter. The two women continue to be at odds to this very day, and Ali is counting down the days until she can be away from Rebecca to live life on her own terms.
Currently, Ali is a fresh high school graduate as of the first day of June. Although she was accepted at a couple of universities, she’s decided on attending California’s own Stanford University: her one ticket to freedom. She is scheduled to begin her adventure as a college student this upcoming fall.
