[ROSEMARY LENNON]

::ROSEMARY ELIZABETH LENNON::

Name: Rosemary (Rose, Rosie, Ro) Elizabeth Lennon

Age: 22 years old.

Hometown: Originally, Christchurch, NZ. Now, this resort.

Membergroup: Resort Staff. Front desk clerk.

Family:
Father, LENNON (1).
Mother, Charlotte. Deceased.


Personality: Party girl Rose has built quite a reputation for herself in her 22 years of life. Not only is she known as the blunt, annoyed, disinterested front desk attendant at the resort who has the most complaints in the history of the hotel, but she is also known for being flirtatious, sensual and charismatic with just about any guy she comes across, which tends to get her into (and out of) some interesting situations. Deep down she has a gentle heart, with a great deal of horrible pain and a realness that only select people have ever seen. This whole… erm… ordeal… is going to give her some much needed perspective moving forward.

History: Born in Christchurch, New Zealand, little Rosie Lennon was true north for her parents. Bright eyed and clever, this little girl brought the Lennons some much needed joy - even if she did arrive later in their lives than they had originally planned. But hey, sometimes fate gets in the way.

And get in the way it did. After her mothers quick and tragic passing, Rosie was left without a mum at the tender age of 5, and her father assumed the difficult and seemingly impossible role of single parent. Rosie - once tender and agreeable - began to change as children do, and her father was often at a loss in how to handle her. LENNON (1), a high-ranking officer in the coast guard, was unable to continue travelling for work on account of his daughter (and lack of family to help), and found it harder and harder to find well-paying jobs for which he was skilled close to home. Poor, downtrodden and tired, LENNON (1) accepted the position of lighthouse keeper at Red Kauri Resort with much deliberation. The money was great, the job seemed great (and would keep him close to the ocean), but he wasn't certain it would work for his kid.

Rosie, however, was just fine with the change. What kid wouldn't want to run white sand beaches? What kid wouldn't want to call an island resort home? She was young enough to not have a say in the matter anyway, and followed her father without question. The island, it turned out, was everything she hoped it would be - gorgeous, full of amazing people, interesting, mysterious, inspiring - it was hers. She grew from a young girl into a woman with island waterfalls, vines, and legends coursing through her veins.

When she was old enough, the owner and manager of the resort gave her a job at the front desk because he couldn't keep her out anyway. She knew the island like the back of her hand, was personable and outgoing, and it helped that she had grown into an attractive young woman who loved to flirt. This was good for business, and perfect for the face of the resort - although she was blunt, rude and argumentative, she was also charming, secretly softhearted, and loyal to a fault. 

She tried college. She really gave it an honest shot. She left the island, went to Australia, and attempted to get a business degree so that she could maybe one day start her own resort, but she couldn't handle it. It wasn't for her. What she really wanted... more than anything... was to paint. To draw. To sculpt. To create. To roam barefoot on beaches. To feel the breeze through her hair from the top of the Eiffel Tower. To wander the halls of the Louvre, to eat croissants at small shops while sketching.... she wants art school. In Paris.

But she couldn't afford it - so she came back to work at the resort, saving fruitlessly for an adventure that will probably never happen. Especially now.

Rosie has made quite a nice life for herself at Red Kauri Resort. She runs the front desk (quite well, mind you), although she has a short temper and has a record for the most complaints in the history of customer service. She has lifetime friends and schoolmates who live in the village, as well as several co-workers she holds dear. A constant flux of new people in and out of the resort keeps the woman entertained, and she has built quite the reputation for herself as an insatiable and unapologetic flirt. She has never had any long term relationship because she sabotages them. They all just hurt in the end. 

Lex Power is her closest friend. He is supportive of her desire to become an artist, and pushes her to not give up on it although it feels impossible. Although he is extremely handsome and charming in his own right, it just never worked out 'that way' for the two of them. After a hilariously disastrous blind date set up by some mutual friends, she took immediately to him in a much more intimate way than she had ever experienced with a man she was hoping to sleep with - and for that, she will to this day say that it was still the best date she's ever been on. 

Amidst all this horror, she is desperate to find her friend, her father, and to get off this damned island. Maybe she will go to Paris after all........... if can survive.
