BACKGROUND
Cordelius and Magnus met when their families shipped them off to boarding school and over the course of the years they attended the Swiss school, the two fell madly in love… though they waited until they turned eighteen to come out to their families and announce their love… They knew their families loved them, but they also knew how old elite bloodlines and very stiff prim and proper parents could get about changes in traditions and things like that, so they wanted to make sure both of them were of age to make their own decisions and fly the nest together if things went bad.
While Cordelius’s parents were less than receptive towards the new, Magnus’s family was shockingly warm and inviting when their son brought his male fiance home to meet them… apparently, Magnus’s family had always known he was gay and were simply waiting until he felt comfortable enough to come out to them in his own time and they thought Cordelius was just the loveliest and most respectful boy Magnus had ever brought home. They were so proud of his choice of partner, such a darling addition to their family.
While Cordelius’s family treated him coldly after the truth came out, they did not remove him from the will as their heir to the Cavendish family fortune… Thankfully Magnus’s family lovingly embraced Cordelius as part of their family and had him come and live with them in Switzerland.
Cordelius and Magnus went on then to attend Harvard University, Cordelius to become a lawyer and Magnus to become a surgeon.
The pair of them got an upscale apartment in Boston to call their home for awhile as Magnus was going to be at school a lot longer at twelve years to be certified as a surgeon then Cordelius’s three years for law.
It was in Cordelius and Magnus’s 4th year at university that Cordelius’s parents flew to Boston to apologize to him for their reaction to his coming out those four years ago and reconcile, they decided their son being gay was not the end of the world and wasn’t worth losing him over. It was clear they were genuine when Cordelius’s father shook Magnus’s hand with sincerity in his eyes and asked him to treat Cordelius well.
Cordelius got a job in Boston at a reputable law firm to get some experience under his belt while Magnus finished the next eight years of his medical classes.
Eight years went by and after Magnus graduated top of his class, the couple decided they really loved Boston and wanted to put down permanent roots there, so Cordelius opened up his own law firm and Magnus got a job as chief surgeon at Massachusetts General Hospital.
Their next step was to officially tie the knot and get married, next move was purchasing a charming small eight bedroom mansion.
One warm morning in the month of May, the now happily married husbands made the most startling discovery as Magnus was preparing to head to work… a newborn baby girl, swaddled in a striped pink, blue and yellow blanket.
When Cordelius heard Magnus shouting for him from the front porch, he found his husband there with the most beautiful and most precious little treasure in his arms, Magnus looked at Cordelius and murmured his name with soft eyes.
The both of them knew, right away. This beautiful baby was meant to be theirs.
The very best lawyers were immediately hired, pulling all any and all stops possible to ensure that the Cavendish-Bettencourt’s would be able to adopt the abandoned little girl as soon as possible.
Not to say that the authorities didn’t try and find the baby’s mother, but there was no success after several months, during that period of time, Magnus and Cordelius were permitted to foster the baby.
When authorities announced they were giving up the search, Magnus and Cordelius wasted absolutely no time in making their adoption of their new daughter legal, finally with great joy, legally giving her the name Adriana in honor of Magnus’s dearly departed grandmother.
As the years went by, Adriana grew up learning from her parents to be a very intelligent and profoundly kind little girl, she grew up seeing the beauty in each and every individual regardless of their race, religion, sexual orientation or gender identity. She preferred to get to know a person and learn who they are within before making any decisions on associating or not. Everyone was worthy of love, compassion and a chance at acceptance.
Little Adriana, as her parents soon discovered, was very fond of dance and would be practically mesmerized each Christmas when the family would watch The Nutcracker. They enrolled her in ballet school when she was eight years old, she was immediately a natural as she picked up on the movements and grace of the art with ease.
She did most of her kindergarten and elementary school via homeschooling.
Belonging to a wealthy family, Adriana was later enrolled in a private high school nearby her family’s home to allow her to have social interaction alongside her education.
She was popular in high school with a great many groups, her genuine kind and gentle personality made her likable by cliques might call ‘geeks and nerds’, though Adriana never approved of those labels when used in a negative way, she found their intelligence and imagination to be stimulating and delightful. She attended many a DnD session with some of these people as a wood elf gloomstalker ranger, a few levels into rogue if the campaign level set allowed for it.
She joined the cheerleading team and the dance team, participating as well in the ballet appreciation club. She was quite popular with the ballet club, having received ballet teaching ever since she was young to the present time.
Adriana enjoyed breaking barriers and doing everything she could to decrease bullying around school. She hated the thought that anyone might feel beaten down or alone, no one deserved to feel that way.
She was quite a force of nature as well towards the bullies that just downright refused to amend their ways, she made it clear she wasn't going to be pushed around or quietly take any of their crap.
Her senior prom, Adriana attended with the primary DM of the DnD group she played with, they weren’t exactly a romantic thing, but he was Adriana’s dearest friend and neither of them had significant others at the time. So it made sense to them to enjoy the dance together. It didn’t hurt that being seen dancing with her helped his reputation a bit.
Sweet guy. Adriana hoped he’d find a great partner one day, whomever he or she might be.
After graduating high school, Adriana is currently looking for universities where she might find great programs to continue pursuing her ballet dreams.
