Name: Satine, but only few know that before her life in the Moulin Rouge she was known as Victoire Katherine Acton
Gender: Female
Age: Twenty six
Job: Courtesan and star of the Moulin Rouge
Habitat: She owns a little apartment in Montmartre but is mostly found at the moulin rouge. Where she, and she alone with her guests, stays in the Elephant.
Little apartment: It is a one room apartment but it had all the basic needs. Though she mostly stays at the elephant. It has a bed that is quite simple and plain nothing like the moulin rouge, it has a kitchen with very little equipment. She doesn't come here often seeing as what she has in the Moulin Rouge but she has it just in case something would go wrong on her job, she doubts it, and she should be in need of accommodation.
The Elephant: It is actually an elephant that stands in the center of the courtyard of the Moulin Rouge. You enter down stairs at one of the legs, though you can as well climb up with the rope that hangs as it's tail. You take the stairs up where there is one door and that leads to the main room of it. The hall and stair case are all in a beautiful red fabric with golden trimmings and several items that are from the far east.
The main room is also decorated in a style from the far east and it holds a Piano forte. Mainly done in reds Satine can split the room up in two if she wants to by pulling on a curtain. It has some glass windows and an exit to a small balcony, from that balcony you can take some other stairs to get on top of it. There is yet another bed also with red sheets and stuff, but with golden bed posts. All and all the Elephant is around 30' up if you stand on top of it.
Physical Description: Satine is a beautiful young woman and many have noticed this. She also is very aware of this fact. Satine stands at 5'7''. That is a little above average for a woman but her height is one of her advantages. Or rather her very long legs that come with this. Her skin is extremely white but that might be because Paris isn't the sunniest of cities and she doesn't exactly come out much during the day, seeing as she needs to be perfectly ready for her job which is during the night. She has a weight that is slightly below average and it's around 105 IBS.
She has flaming red hair, personally she likes it just loose but she will wear it in any way that is best for her show. Her lips are also naturally quite red but she normally wears a deep red lipstick. Some other make up as well but that is the most notable. Her natural, 'day', outfits are normally suits in several lighter colors. Her show outfits are naturally extreme and are meant to stick out from the other girls. She also, though she does not know it herself, from tuberculosis. Which limits her in ways.
Personality Description: Satine is a courtesan and she knows it more then well enough. She can be quite manipulative, read very manipulative. And she is smart, knowing what men want and she gains what she wants by delivering them what they want. She has many sexual abilities. She is very well aware of the fact that one day she will be cast away by the audience, though she knows that at the moment she is by far the best, and that she will need to survive then. That is why diamonds are her best friend, they will help her live when they are done with her.
She still hopes to escape all this and become an actress, she wants to 'fly away' and never look back. Even though her father figure and confidant Zidler has always told her that she is only worth what a man will pay for her. She doesn't believe, nor falls in love. It is against her rules because of what she is and she knows that would be bad for business. The life she is leading now she doesn't consider it as living. She is a fantastic actress and can make a man believe what he wants to believe, the truth or not.
History: Satine of course wasn't born Satine, no. Her real name, that her birth parents chose about twenty six years ago was Victoire Katherine Acton. The young girl had both of her parents and was a healthy god looking child. Of course everything went well. Her mother taught her how to play the piano, and taught her about literature and such. Though all of those lessons are long forgotten. She grew up to be a beautiful young lady till there was a tragedy when she was sixteen.
Both her parents died in an accident. Her house burnt down and she had nothing. She went from street to street asking for money and sometimes singing on the streets for it. It didn't take long for Harold Zidler, the owner of the Moulin Rouge found her and recruited her. She wasn't the youngest at the Moulin Rouge but she certainly was the most talented. The other girls taught her everything there was to know about the nightlife. Most of them didn't see her full potential to become a real star to them she was just a pretty face. Only one saw it and she was Nini legs in the Air.
Nini was the star of the Moulin Rouge at that moment and saw in the new girl, Satine now called, a threat. Of course she did her best to prevent her from becoming better then she was. She quickly gained the popularity and she learned one thing from Zidler himself, she was only worth as much as a man would pay for her. By the time she was eighteen she had successfully become the star of the moulin rouge, her song: Diamonds are a Girl's best friend. And that is why the men only paid her in diamonds in stead of money.
The years past, she still is the star of the Moulin Rouge and it is normal that in this world every other girl wants what she has. She doesn't know it yet but she also suffers from tuberculosis. The twenty six year old Satine is still the highlight of the Moulin Rouge. And the little things she was used to in her young boring life are no more. She now lives a rich existence.
Other: The name: well since Satine is more of an artist name then a real one i decided to go with a classical French name Personality: Some parts from songs as well from the movie where she showed great interest in being an actress and a sort of fear toward falling in love History: The hardest part because how do you get caught up in this kind of stuff. i guessed because she at a point says: "all my life you made me believe i was worth what a man would pay me" she has been there for a long while. And after she sings diamonds nini legs in the air says "i don't know if that duke's gonna get his money's worth tonight" so i think she was the former star and satine took her place and she's clearly not happy about it.
