Elizabeth Finch
french/english | female | mid 40s

Seeking solace from the death of her college sweetheart, former stage actor Elizabeth Finch impulsively joins independent spy agency, Kingsman, and earns the title "Guinevere" after involuntarily helping to solve a case against a criminal organisation under the guise of a bio-techonology company. Despite her near lack of training in physical combat, she tries to make up for it in other aspects by taking her various life experiences, whether it be improv or manipulation, in order to make things go her way.

Whether it's the finding out that her late husband had contributed to a near catastrophical epidemic or having to cope with the loss of him in and of itself, she tries to keep her past tucked away for now with her new crime-fighting-career in focus. But perhaps the kinks and traumas in one's life should be dealt with sooner than later when one decides to start a career in espionage.

PERSONALITY
chaotic good | entp | leo | the empress
intimidating deceptive cheeky

Elizabeth Finch often holds a herself in a certain high, near-condescending image due to her status as an agent, often seeming reserved and ladylike. She knows her worth and knows very well where she stands in the food chain. Get to know her a little more and you'll find that she is much more spontaneous than the bespoke suits or silk dresses she often dons, always curious and seeking an adventure. A woman with a bit of an edge, she will not hesitate to bite - physically or figuratively - if necessary to put someone back in their rightful place when out of line.

Given her background, not only in theatre, but also being the shallowest twat back in her days, it's not surprising to learn that Elizabeth Finch is one hell of a good liar whenever she needs to be. It's usually not that hard a task for her when it comes to swindling and charming people into whatever she sees them useful for. And It's not uncharacteristic of her to tell people that she still is an actor whenever she's not miming to be a tailor (just to mess with them). But to her credit, spy work is anything but honesty.

If ever one gets to meet the woman behind the 'Guinevere' title, one would be pleasantly surprised that she's fairly amiable when it comes to first impressions, for the most part, despite her passive reputation as somewhat of an arse and an A-class whore. She's fully accepted the fact that nothing would (fully) rid her of her heinous attitude in the past. But so it happens, sitting in a table full of posh, white men at work for the past decade or so rubs off in way that makes one say 'I beg your pardon's instead of 'excuse me's. So she takes advantage of her current work in the agency to calm her inner unicivilized,-rebellious-16-year-old-self, and tries her best to be a mildly mature, courteous, and tolerable gentlelady.

Design

Elizabeth Finch is a fairly average statured black woman with jet black, curly hair that usually goes down to her shoulders in length. She has dark coloured eyes which are often framed with mascara, eyeliner, and some subtle eye shadow. Her round lips are most often tinted in various shades of warmth: maroon for work, burgundy every other day, and scarlet red if she's feeling a little whore-ish. Her hourglassed frame is thin enough to fit into society's standards of "attractive", but fat enough for just a little definition of muscle to show through - definitely not built for professional heavy weight lifting, but strong enough to throw a right hook and knock a couple of teeth out if given the effort. If you look a little closer, besides the natural freckles, moles, and blemishes, remnants of scars and bruises can be seen from past wounds.

Elizabeth LOVES dressing up. As a former stage actor, the instinct to put on frocks and feathers practically come naturally for her; it's no wonder that she specifically thrives on the being undercover aspect of being a secret agent. She adores the fashion opportunities that some cases give her, from studded collars, to lacy ribbons, to smooth silk and satin, she'll basically give any fashion style a shot, always trying her best to dress to the nines. This of course isn't an exception to her standard Kingsman work uniforms! Despite the seemingly scarce options when it comes to her work tops (the shirt + jacket + tie combo - for the sake of consistency, they say), she works with what she's given with and often dons many variants of skirts whenever she doesn't feel like wearing the usual trousers.

Important Notes
  • work uniform is very variable (suit + pencil skirt, suit dress, varying patterns, etc.)
  • almost always wears a pearl earrings.
  • makeup is not super prominent but she does wear them.
  • signet ring goes on right hand.
  • post-the golden circle:
    • optional wedding ring *eyes emoji*.
    • burn scars along the left of her neck to her humerus due to the missile attacks.
    • either a pixie cut or something a little longer.

Relationship
when one loves, one does not calculate...

spouse, boss

Elizabeth's first impression of Harry "Galahad" Hart is that he's a die hard soldier who would blindly follow orders and have little to no emotions. Of course she would find that this was far from the case come time. She appreaciates learning of a more true nature to the quiet and reserved brooding mystery man. The ever so endearing, polite nature of the man, accompanied with his dry humour, and a passively snarky attitude that can be easily lost among the charms of his gentility.

The two became and stayed good friends for the longest time, which is why it frankly took Elizabeth by surprise when the older gentleman confessed that he had taken a likeness towards her. She approached the potential of a romantic relationship with him with the utmost alerted hesistancy, but eased up once she saw the sincerity in his eyes - the ones that are either always calculating or completely unreadable - whenever he got to rambling about his beloved, winged insects. Perhaps it wouldn't be so bad to be in the company of a charming, middle-aged, lepidopterist after all.

late best friend & colleague

"The annoyingly doting younger brother I never had," said Lizzy about James one random drunken night to Harry. Knowing him from beyond Kingsman from their Drama Centre London days, the inseparable pair bond from their shared love of theatrics, trivial gossip, and wreaking havoc wherever they go. Like fire to gasoline.

Yet despite the light hearted banter sometimes turning into tense arguments (mostly about Lizzy's mental state), for a reason that even she can't comprehend, he remains by her side - even until his very end. One of Elizabeth's biggest regrets is not thanking him enough for everything he's done for her while they still had time.

Ah, Kingsman's favourite strategy executive. Elizabeth absolutely loves giving him a headache, but I'm sure most of the other agents do that to him already as well. Poor Merlin, the agency can never seem to give him a break.

Admittedly, she actually doesn't know all too much about Hamish Mycroft. He's not as guarded as Harry is, but their friendship really usually go as far a pint of guinness in the pub after a long day. She knows that he grew up in rural Scotland, is an absolute menace at karaoke, and frankly makes a good drinking buddy. Even so, the man's quite a miracle, and she respects him for that.

close friend, colleague

Finally, another female agent! Elizabeth practically breathes a sigh of relief after having to deal with a table-full of posh, white, gentlemen for the past decade. The stab of acknowledging that Lancelot is no longer James Spencer aside, if Alistair - someone James highly regarded of - thinks she'd fill the Lancelot role acceptably well then she'd trust him by it than anyone else.

If Kingsman's 2000s era were made a little more interesting by her and James' antics, she cannot wait to see what kinds of trouble that Roxy and Eggsy get up to. At least this time one of them is logical and reserved, a good voice of reason for the other to listen to before eventually just causing chaos anyway.

close friend, colleague

"Don't compare him to his predecessor, don't compare him to his predecessor, don't compare him to his predecessor," are the only words that ring in her head anytime she looks across the roundtable these days. Even he could sense the disappointment in her smile and nod whenever they exchange glances.

But even with Eggsy Unwin's spontaneity and charmingly untraditional manners, she can tell that a part of Harry lives on vicariously through him. James would've got on with him well actually, she thinks. Could you imagine? Oh, what stupid fun they all would've had.

Elliot Hawkes


late spouse

(One of) The love(s) of her life, the one who got her in this mess in the first place. A part of her will never stop loving him, nor will it stop grieving him. One can only hold on to something for so long before having to let go.

Elizabeth met Elliot through James at a random party when they were in university. Much to their mutual friend's disappointment, the pair completely did not hit it off. Elliot found her to be nothing but arrogant and obnoxious. But in a funny Pride & Prejudice, Bridget Jones-esque twist, the two somehow ended up together anyway, marrying shortly after the both of them had graduated.
