General appearance: Gwendolyn isn’t exactly built like a dancer, but more like a model. She’s curvy in the right places, slim, and has long legs. She stands at five feet, ten inches, making her quite a bit taller than the rest of the dancers in her class. Gwendolyn is definitely unique looking. Her face is round, with freckles dusting across her plump cheeks. Her eyes are almost catlike, and she has a sort of upturned nose. She possesses a headful of thick, red hair, that is naturally unruly and curly. On days when she has her dance classes, she normally straightens it, to keep a sleek, professional appearance, but she does prefer to just leave it curly. In the past, she's been described as ethereal.
When she’s not in a leotard and tights, her style is pretty simple. Whatever is in her closet generally works for her. Anything from jeans and a tee-shirt to a vintage party dress. She does probably like sundresses and skirts the most though, because they show off her gorgeous legs.

General personality: Gwendolyn is incredibly passionate about dance, thats no secret. In class, she always tries her hardest, and is always determined to push for just one more inch on her grande battements, or just that little bit of height on a leap. With passion and determination though, comes perfectionism. She isn't happy unless she's the best. She's incredibly self-critical, and often puts herself down for not being good enough. Her hardworking attitude isn't something present just in her dancing, but in her academics as well. She's incredibly good at reading people, and loves to be able to lend a helping hand whenever possible. She gives some pretty good advice. Gwendolyn can be sort of guarded. She doesn't let people in very fast, but once you are in, it means that she really does trust you, and values your opinion.
- History: Gwendolyn Abigail Grant was born to Kayleige and Michael Grant in Torquay, England. She was their second child, the elder, being Amelia, who was five when Gwendolyn was born. Though there was a somewhat substantial age difference between the two girls, they always seemed to get a long quite well.
Gwendolyn actually became involved in dance because of Amelia. When Gwendolyn was five, her sister was accepted into the Royal Ballet School, and she wanted to take dance lessons also. Her parents signed her up, with a smaller, local studio, and it didn't take long before Gwendolyn was completely hooked. She became incredibly passionate about dance, realizing at a very young age that you could really express yourself through dance.
At age twelve, after much pleading with her parents, they agreed to let her audition for the Royal Ballet School as well. At this point, Gwendolyn was already five feet, five inches. The school did not accept her, because they knew that by the time she was ready to join the company, she would be way too tall, seeing as the average height of their dancers was 5'3" and 5'7". It didn't matter that her technique was superb. She was nothing short of devastated, and quit dancing for just over a year.
With the encouragement of her family, she began dancing again just in time to audition for Finesse school for the arts. Her older sister, who was a company member with Royal Ballet, coached her everyday after she was done with her classes. She knew that she would be able to study not just dance, but other forms of art too, and hopefully, flourish.
