History (8 sentence minimum): Tauret was born during the season of red and orange leaves, where it is cooler in Remaliah. Ramaliah is a land in desert, but if you're near the river, there is crops, Tauret was born as the second child of Menefer and Nakia, both nobles of the country. But they knew that Tauret could become much more if they allowed her to go to the Royal Lands, when she was old enough to travel by herself. Tauret is close to her siblings, her elder Brother being protective of his little sisters, they used to play together all the time before Upton decided to join the military, to help protect the Sultan (Or Ottoman Ruler), and country. It pained Tauret to not have her older brother around, but she knew the call of duty was stronger in him, then it was for her or Nenet.
Tauret did help the servants and slaves with the chores, but she didn't agree with having slaves. But she got over that as she got older, she grew to be a very beautiful, but intelligent woman. Her parents paid to have Tauret sent to the Royal lands, to learn from other cultures, but to also have a higher understanding in the world, Nenet is supposed to join her once she grows older.

Roleplay Sample (Two paragraph minimum - Ten sentences): Night time, it was her favorite time, the in between actually, what they called twlight. Where the day kissed the night, before day went into it's slumber, and night took over with it's darkness. To her, it was beautiful as can be, the stars popping out, sparkling in the otherwise dark night. But at the same time, she couldn't help but stand up, her eyes glowed softly in the darkness. I miss Nenet, I wish she could of came with me now.
But she understood that she was still needed at home. So she would just sit back down, as she lifted up the quill, she dipped it into the ink, pulling it out, to place it against the parchment, she wrote carefully in the language of her people, and once she was done, she would write in the language of this land, that way she could practice. This was also to show her Father what she had learned while here, she had trouble with the language still, fumbling over her words... but she was getting better.
