Not sure how many of you really look back on the character's who've been accepted or not, nor am I sure how much you guys know of Lydia or her story.
But, her story line collides very well with that of many versions of Phantom, though not all. She'd be best with a Leroux, Kay, Stage or 2004 Phantom only because there's more of a hint of the backstory of where Lyds could have possibly met Erik.
Her story line is as follows:
Her parents had fallen deep in debt. Desperate to gain financial order they sold their five year old daughter, Lydia, to a pair of gypsies who then for 13 years of their life had her working as a dancer to entertain the visitors of the fair. Leading them into different attractions and luring them into the unknown. When she came of age her gypsy master's had changed the profession which they had given her and made her an exotic dancing attraction which in turn brought a lot of money to the gypsies. Being as sought after as she was, the gypsies spoiled her. Fed her bigger rations and kept her from being harmed in order to keep her "goods" from being ruined.
One night, a rather slow uneventful night the gypsies had asked her to clean the grounds, as they were heading off again, this time to Paris.
And there is where Erik and Lydia finally meet. Of course, when she caught sight of the ill-deformed boy before her she fled in fear and disgust. But was caught by one of her owners. Angry with her insolence and stupidity both of her gypsy master's began to abuse her. Thus, she went back to the boy for two more days. Giving him her rations if he would take them. But on a third day after dealing with the abuse she grew tiresome of the life. She had meant to check on the deformed boy but he had already gone. Somehow they figured Lydia would try to run off and when they learned of this, Lydia did the only thing she could to save herself and murdered her captors before running off.
Lydia finds her way to the opera and thus begins the rest of the story.
Wow that was a lot to write xD Okay, point is I'm hoping that if there's a willing Erik out there, they'd be willing to do a past rp with me :3 As well as around the manor? See where things go from there?
