Information
At the age of twelve, Integra lost her father; and her mother was little more than a mystery. While Arthur lay on his death bed, he gave specific instructions for the "key to her salvation." The man stated that it was locked in the farthest cell in Hellsing's lower regions. Richard, Arthur's brother, had been consumed with jealousy and hatred. As a grown man and brother to the previous head of Hellsing, he had thought the position would be passed down to him. Instead, instructions had been made clear the Integra would carry on the legacy.
**NOTE: In some threads Arthur may or may not be alive. This is an AU blog after all.**

The heiress is currently anywhere between eighteen and nineteen years of age, full of spirit and quite rebellious. While she behaves as a proper lady and leader should when the occasion calls for such, the young woman is never what she seems. There's a fire in her personality while she manages to pull off a rather detached and cool composition or front. Her attitude often gets the best of her, and though biting her tongue would be wise, Integra can't refrain from speaking out. She's intelligent, witty, stubborn, a little too courageous and sometimes quite harsh. Let's not forget the fact that she can be incredibly demanding and possibly even a bit manipulative.
Integra has a thin and slender frame. She is tall compared to most females and not quite as endowed as they. Beautifully long, golden tresses cascade down the female's back with only a handful on either side to frame her face amd grace her shoulders. The front pieces of hair are considerably shorter to the rest; but nevertheless her hair is remarkably long and healthy. Occasionally she will wear it up but prefers otherwise. When working or in the presence of important people, she dons a formal suit. It is tailored and custom-made to her preferences and likings. When alone, she will often discard the jacket and possibly the ascot as well. Casual wear is rare for the female; but she does attempt it for something new and fresh. This does not mean she does not possess more casual articles of clothing; however, the young woman often feels as though she will not be respected in them. With such noted, she fervently avoids dresses -- though skirts are sometimes an option to the mind and eye.
Born of noble lineage and her line of work, there are certain things that seemed necessary for her to learn and pick up on. The female was tutored in learning and speaking the Latin language, fencing, and sharpshooting among other things as well.
A couple of bad habits include smoking [cigarillos are preferred but cigarettes are a secondary], the occasional alcoholic drink [ usually only excessive when her mood is poor], and disrespecting or sassing her superiors. Sometimes even friends and fellow peers.
