Personality: Despite being fairly charismatic, Clara tends to be a very upfront sort of person, and can come off as rather abrasive at first. She isn’t afraid to speak her mind, and refuses to cut corners in order to spare people’s feelings generally, believing doing such a thing tends to them weaker. Upon getting closer to her, however, it is evident that she does such things due to a genuine concern for the welfare of those around her, tending to push and motivate people as much as she can, and always means well, even if she tends to be rather harsh in her words. She knows she needs to get better with her wordings, but struggles to do so due to her own feelings on herself due to her own disability. She tends to have no real fear and is quick to jump into action, and is usually the first to speak up about things.
Background: Daughter to an extremely wealthy entrepreneur and a harpist in an orchestra, Clara has always enjoyed the finer things in life. Her parents had high hopes for her, but began to fall away from her upon discovering her deafness, coddling her and instead forcing a great deal of their hopes off onto her younger sister. Clara never really appreciated this, and often sought to get as far away from the babying as she could, becoming somewhat abrasive because of it, trying to learn to deal with her disability on her own. She fought her parents in order to have the right to go to Richfield Academy, trying to prove to them that she can function on her own just fine.
