hello howdy what’s up uwu i’m neely and this is my extra bitch. pls love her ... she likes the attention.
Ingrid Lake grew up with a silver spoon in her mouth. Her family lived in New Orleans for generations and her grandfather, Vincent Lake, founded a media company that took Louisiana by storm in the 1960’s… from then on it expanded and to this day, is one of the most renowned companies in the country. They own newspapers and broadcasting networks all over the United States, which amassed a ridiculous fortune for the surviving members of the Lake family. Around Louisiana, mention the Lake’s and you’ll hear tales from people who had got their first job from the Lake’s, or had been helped out by them financially in their time of need. Louisiana residents have mostly good things to say about the family. The only son of Vincent Lake and the heir of the company moved with his pregnant wife to Marais, Louisiana to escape the bustle of New Orleans and raise their child away from the city.
She’s an only child, which makes her the heiress to Lake Corp., meaning she’s set for life. She’s never had the need to work or do anything off her own merit. From the time she was a young girl to now, Ingrid has enjoyed a life of privilege, but she never took that for granted. She’s always wanted to give back and runs a few charities in Marais and regularly donates to local causes, as well as hosting many highbrow galas and events with the other wealthy residents in the area.
At the age of 20, Ingrid married a man she’d known through family friends. They were very much in love and were ready to make a life together. He also came from money and had a high-powered job, which her parents were pleased with. They had initially been very picky with who their darling daughter would end up with. Ingrid’s been married to her husband for 20 years now and they have 3 children. The eldest being 18 years old and the youngest being 7. She adores her family, though, in the past 5 years, she’s had a wandering eye, engaging in affairs with people both from Marais and neighbouring towns and cities.
When it comes to her personality, Ingrid is a very charming person. She knows how to win people over, and is very much a people pleaser. She thrives on the attention and praise from others. She’s very social and is pretty much the ‘queen’ of hosting events and fundraisers. She knows almost everyone in Marais… she makes it her mission to welcome newcomers to town and maintain the good reputation for Marais. Though, there’s a not quite so nice side to her. She lies a lot. About a broad range of things. Mostly to her husband and friends, but she created a perfect facade for herself, in a desperate need to one up the people around her. There’s also a very controlling and manipulative side to her. (I kind of took some tidbits of inspiration from the character Adora Crellin in ’Sharp Objects’, except Ingrid isn’t as psychotic as Adora, lmao.)
Ingrid’s father is in his mid 80’s now and his health is deteriorating by the day and considering Ingrid’s mother passed away a few years ago, her inheritance is coming closer, and honestly, she has no clue of what to do when that happens. Knowing her, she’ll probably hire someone to run the company for her, but she is worried that her husband may take her for all she’s got if their marriage begins to crumble, that’s why she’s determined to keep their relationship strong, but she has a pathological need to cheat, so who knows how that may end up.
wanted connections.
CLOSE FRIENDS — people from a similar circle to ingrid, they are the wealthier crowd in the area, and attend her extravagant galas/events.
FRIEND(S) WITH BENEFITS — yes, ingrid is very much married and has been for 20 years but that doesn’t stop her from hoeing it up... but we love that for her. any gender works.
LONG-TERM AFFAIR — i’m only looking for one of these. preferably a male/nb. they have had an arrangement going for a while (probably over a year), maybe there’s some real feelings there, but an issue that could get in the way is the fact that ingrid isn’t ready to end her marriage, now or maybe never. this could bring some angst ... teehee.
FRENEMIES — i would live for the bitchiness and back-handed compliments, which ingrid is an expert at.
PEOPLE SHE CAN’T STAND ( & VICE VERSA. ) — gimme. this could be fun.
NANNY — someone who looks after her youngest children ( 7 & 12 years old ). maybe they’ve known her and her family for years?
these are just a few ideas from the top of my head ... but i’m super down for pretty much anything. gimme all the plots.
