In Depth Appearance: Esme is 5ft 3 and has a quite slight build with a lot of hidden muscle. She has long black wavy hair that reaches down to her mid back but she often has it tied back in a slap dash ponytail or bun as it tends to get in the way no matter what she is doing. She has a typical tanned look from her Spanish heritage and quite dark brown eyes. She tends to like to wear sun dresses or skinny jeans with t-shirts with bad puns or tv-show characters on. She usually wears bright coloured converse and dresses as if it is summer all year round. However if it is horrible weather you will see her bundled up in skinny jeans with too big hoodies and a black knee length trench coat with a bright coloured scark and a pair of bright yellow Doc Martens. She has a scar on her neck just below her jawbone from when she fell as a child breaking her jaw and cutting that area open. She has her ears pierced and has a range of bright and often tacky earrings

On the outside Esme is incredibly bright bubbly and easy going. She is always talking and is not shy in the slightest. Even when everything is crumbling around her she will have a motivational speech and a smile for anyone who needs it. However inside she is doubting everything she says, often lying about even the smallest things that don’t matter at all, she just can’t seem to stop. A soon as she is back home and out of sight the façade will crumble and her anxiety and paranoia fall through. Only her closest friends have seen this side and her dad is always asking her to go get help but she refuses to acknowledge the weakness. Baking or yoga are her reliefs to work through the fear and anxiety. She is not scared to voice her opinion on anything and everything earning her a few enemies over the years. She has hundreds of faux friends but only the inner circle know her truly enough to say they are her friend.

History: Esme’s father is called Esteban Ricardo Alves and is a Spanish immigrant who moved to the States just before Esme was born. He met her mother, Anna Susan Cartwright, when she was on holiday and visited his family’s restaurant. They had a love affair and so Esteban asked her to marry him and he arranged to move out of to the States and set up his own Bakery to continue his passion from home. Anna died in childbirth only a year after they had got married and Esteban moved to the States. He raised Esme on his own and Esme idolises him even though she wishes that she had been able to meet her mother. She was taught Spanish at the same time as learning English and often switches between the two without realising. Her father never dated anyone or remarried but the Bakery is still his passion and Esme inherited his skill and love for the craft. She intends to take it over from him when he retires (but that isn’t going to be any time soon though).
Esme was always one of the smartest in her classes but preferred to turn her energy to more creative pursuits such as baking and script writing, she always dreams of acting in one of her own musicals on Broadway. When she was ten, her father was struggling to deal with her hyperactive nature so he introduced her to Athletics and she loved it. She competes in both the 400m and High Jump for the school and the local athletics club and it currently trying to get a Sports Scholarship to college to study creative writing with media production.
