Venezia Reyes ~ Character Info

Hi there! I'm planning on doing more stories for my dolls, but since both Coco and Venezia are more or less complete (until I decide I want to change something else), I thought it was time for new profile photos and all. It will also help me make a baseline to continue writing the story.

My idea is to have a basic idea of the character here, in order to go slowly updating my doll profiles. Also, having things about each character sorted up are going to help me plan stories better! So, today we have Venezia's info! Hope you will like it!

Instead of doing the classic 10 Facts, I asked Nikki, and she told me where to get a Character Questionnaire template. The one I'm using is a mismatch from several templates I found online. If you want it, let me know and I'll email it to you!

By the way, I crochetted that scarf myself! Yay for learning!
