Fandom: Gossip Girl
Name: Lorelei Bass Age: (series flexible/1 year older than Chuck) Nationality: American Parents: Bart & Evelyn Bass Hometown: Upper East Side, New York City Current Residence: New York City Occupation: Bass Shareholder & Property Owner Sexuality: Bisexual Eye Color: Brown Hair Color: Brunette Faceclaim: Phoebe Tonkin Backstory:
UNDER CONSTRUCTION/CHANGE The elder of the two Bass children, Lorelei has never known a life that didn't involve manipulative people or business coming before family - she had her father to thank for that. With an absent mother, either dead or MIA, Bart was the only real role model she had to look up to, aspiring to join the family dynasty from the day she understood what it was. She always wanted to impress him, though her valiant efforts were often brushed aside with the comment of her being a 'silly little girl'. So it came as no surprise that when Bart died and the siblings received shares in the company, she leaped at the opportunity to manage her own portion of Bass Industries, as heartless as it may have appeared. Taking charge of the majority of the European real estate, Lorelei thrived in the new environment away from the toxic air of the upper east side, becoming a pretty damn good business woman. But now she's back in town, masquerading the reason for her return with business-related excuses. What exactly is it that she's hiding? Or should I say - hiding from? Personality:
Lorelei is a very straightforward person, some labelling her as rudely blunt, manipulative and 'strong-willed'. Having an absence of a real mother figure growing up, and a less than affectionate father, Lorelei tends to stray as far away as she can from being emotional or even ever that genuine with people. Rarely serious, unless it comes to business, her confident, flirty facade is often the only side that people come to see of her - but it is just that, a mask. She always knows what she wants and how to get it, and isn't afraid to deal with anyone that gets in her way. |
