Ties With Others
Mother: Claire Gauthier died of lung cancer when Antoinette was 11 years old. The disease was a mystery at the time, and from what Claire remembers her mother just got very sick very fast.
Father: Antoine Gauthier. Although he is her namesake, this is a man that Antoinette hardly knows. He is alive, but she doesn't know where. He left when she was very young.
Siblings: None that she knows of. Antoine left to be with another woman though, so it is quite possible that she has a half sibling or two out there.
Significant Other: None.
Children: None.
Other Family: If you would like to be related to Antoinette, please note me. I'm all for cousins and stuff.
Pet: Antoinette has a young adult male Oriental Shorthair cat. His name is Sebastian. Sebastian is a rich chestnut brown in color, with clear, vivid green eyes with no flecks of color. He is more a good friend than a pet, as he is not a regular cat. He is of the folk, something in between the city and rural folk. Sebastian has no problem being nude like a normal cat, but does wear a bow tie and sometimes a small hat.
They sleep in the same bed when Antoinette is sleeping alone, and he often keeps her company when she is getting dressed. When Antoinette is alone, they are always together. He also helps solicit her, which is good for business.
Relationships
Mr. Mason: Mr. Mason is the only man that she has ever had a long relationship with. Her father left when she was very young, and all of the other men in her life are, well, paying for her services. He is a father figure to her in a very skewed way. He took her in when she was young, and although he is her employer, they have known each other for so long that they have an odd comfortableness together. She is so devoted to him that she would do anything he asked of her.
Sebastian: He calls her Annie. This is the only other man that has been in her life longer then an hour, and he isn't even a man. He's a cat. Sebastian is the only guy that she can really trust. She loves him like a brother if she loves him at all. In any case, she is very fond of him. They have a very comfortable and friendly relationship.
Appearance
Body: Although Antoinette is young, she has come into her body very well. She is very short at only 5 foot 2 inches, and about 15 pounds overweight which actually compliments her body nicely. She has a small waist, actually. She packs on her pounds on her butt and thighs. Antoinette is bootyliscious. She has about half an inch of extra fat everywhere, which doesn't make her look as fat as you would think. She looks healthy, if anything. Antoinette also has fairly large breasts for her small frame. Her cup size would be somewhere between 32 C and 32 DD, depending on exactly how much extra weight she is carrying. It can fluctuate depending on if she is eating lean or not. One thing that isn't big on her is her feet, which are about a size 5 or 6.
Antoinette has a giant red mane of hair. She is often compared to a lion because of it. Thick, bright, curly locks of hair reach down to her lower back. Her face is lightly freckled, as is the rest of her body. On her left cheek she has two prominent freckles, or beauty marks. One is below her eye and the other is closer to the middle of her cheek. Her eyes are brown.
Fashion: Antoinette has many different outfits. Most of which are actually lingerie of some sort. She wears many corsets and frilly things, but she also has a few lavish dresses of silk and velvet. She has a distinct color palette of olive and hunter green, copper, gold, rust, mustard, scarlet, and the occasional blue or purple. For a prostitute, Antoinette actually looks fairly put together. Of course, Mr. Mason has provided her with most of her clothing, and she also has regular street wear and working clothes.
Accessories: Like she has many outfits, she also has many pieces of jewelry. Most of which are gold, copper, or bronze. She isn't a fan of silver. She is usually adorned with rings and bracelets with rubies and other bright stones. She doesn't like kiddie jewelry, she likes real gold with real jewels. Antoinette has pretty expensive taste, but she can afford it for the most part. Well, Mr. Mason can anyway. She always has three keys with her, usually around her neck. A bronze key to her personal bedroom, A gold key to the client bedroom, and a silver key to her trunk, which holds all of her most valued personal belongings. She has one necklace with a gold locket that she rarely takes off. There is nothing inside the locket, but it was her mothers, and she wears it in her memory.

Personality
Antoinette has a firey personality. She can't be tamed by many, if she can be tamed at all. She loves to have fun and laugh, and often goofs off while she is working as a barmaid of waitress. She is still young, and has a young person's mentality. She is very friendly and easy to get on with, and fairly trustworthy.
On the other hand, she isn't very trusting herself. She doesn't let her guard down often, and when she does it is only for those she has known a very long time.
She is clever and confident. Mr. Mason had her tutored as a younger girl, and she is well learned. She can read, write, and knows her manners and history well. Her intelligence catches most people off guard. Her childish nature is offset by her knowledge, which gives her an edge when talking to older men.
She isn't the most man crazy teenager out there. On the contrary, she doesn't trust very many men at all and would rather keep the company of women. But her job keeps her from doing this. She is very good at masking this part of her personality when she is with men. She seems interested and flirty, and is very good at pretending to want it. She's well practiced, after all.
History
Antoinette grew up fast. She was orphaned when she was eleven years old, and for a few months lived off of the kindness of others. She begged for money and stole what she could.
One day while on the Mason Compound, she was caught by a stable hand sleeping in one of the horse's stalls. She was promptly brought to the compound's owner, Mr. Mason. He was impressed by her spunk and let her stay on the compound under the condition that she would work for him. She would get free food and board as long as she stayed and worked. Antoinette agreed to the arrangement.
For the first few years she just did whatever anybody needed of her. She would run errands and deliver messages, muck out the stables and groom the horses, work as a maid, or help out in the kitchen. The more she worked there the more she was aware of the inner workings of the compound. When she was 13 years old, Mr. Mason started her work in the gentleman's club.
Miscellaneous
The Mason Compound is a large piece of land in Fossgate owned by the wealthy Stephan Mason. He is an airship designer by trade, which attributes to much of his money, but the compound itself and a good amount of his wealth was inherited.
The compound is private property but many of its buildings are open to the public. These buildings are Ye Olde Pub, The Mason Inn, Angelo's (a high end restaurant), The Gentleman's Club, the public stables, and The Fossgate Museum.
There are also private buildings that are not open to the public. These buildings are The Mason Mansion, the private stables, the staff housing, and the family cemetery. These places are gated off and only accessible by the Mason family and a few members of the staff. Except the staff housing, which is open to all staff. In the staff housing Antoinette lives in a room with 3 other girls and has a corner to herself with a bed, dresser, and trunk.
