Powers/Abilities: ----
Personality: While Nunnally isn't able to do a lot of things others her age can do, she can still do some things despite being blind and paralyzed. She enjoys hanging out with her older brother and cousins, whom Nunnally adores very much. She also enjoys hanging out with her brother's friends, because while they may be older than her, they are kind to her. They don't treat her differently because of her disabilities and are very accommodating to her. While she does enjoy their company, Nunnally does want friends, but finds it difficult since many don't have a full understanding of others with disabilities and are very judgmental. It also doesn't help that she presents as a Beta, and some of her classmates don't associate with her because of that as well. However, she refuses to give up and believes she'll be able to make friends with others despite their differences. She doesn't like to be a burden on others, and while she is helped a lot, this doesn't mean her own insecurities don't nag at her frequently. She desires very much to be able to see and walk, but since there is realistically no way modern-day medicine can fix her inability to walk, Nunnally has accepted that and settled for wanting to fix her vision so she can be able to see again. In her spare time, she could be found reading books in Braille and learning new things, or she is making paper cranes with her cousins.

Face Claim: Code Geass: Lelouch of the Rebellion - Nunnally vi Britannia | Nunnally Lamperouge
Appearance: Nunnally is now about 5'2'' with brown curly brown hair that she inherited from her father and goes all the way down to the middle of her back, and violet colored eyes. She is always seen with a smile on her face, and her eyes are constantly shut but appear relaxed and at ease. She has a very plain skin complexion and has a very small figure for someone her age, as the only thing that seemed to grow on her was her height, and her hair got a little bit longer. She wears casual clothing for a girl her age, but it's mostly dresses or skirts. Something appropriate that her mother, Miwa, feels is proper attire. She wears knee-high dress socks along with brown suede dress shoes. Since she's allowed to attend school now, she owns a Seinan Academy girls' uniform that she's required to wear specific to her grade level.
History: Nunnally Lamperouge is the daughter of Bunta Lamperouge and Miwa Lamperouge. She's also the younger sister of Lelouch Lamperouge, and she is a young girl trying to overcome the many obstacles that have been thrust upon her since the day she was born. Nunnally was born with a condition known as spina bifida, paralyzing her from the waist down and making her unable to learn how to walk. As she grew, she had to be wheelchair bound to get around wherever she needed to go. She was born with the ability to see, but her sight eventually deteriorated around the early age of one. Having these disabilities has made it hard for her to enjoy life like other children. Instead of being able to run around freely, having fun playing, she was stuck in the house being home-schooled, and her parents were worried that she would be picked on by other children if they allowed her to attend public school. Bunta and Miwa didn't want their daughter to endure that.
Her brother Lelouch was born without such issues, but he felt bad that his little sister couldn't do the things she wanted. Her family was supportive and comforting, trying their best to make it easy for Nunnally as she grew up. Lelouch took care of her when their parents were working. She appreciated it and adored her brother very much for how he helped to take care of her. It wasn't easy for Nunnally to grow up like this. She's acted out many times, having wanted her parents to end her life because she believed that there was no point in taking care of her if there wasn't a chance to fix what had happened to her. But they stood by her and didn't want her to give up, for things would get better for her. Although there were times Nunnally might've felt like she didn't deserve it because of how she may have acted out, she does know her parents care about her, and neither of them is at fault for what's happened, just like she isn't.
She just had to do her best to stay strong and believe that something good would come out of her situation. It's also why her father worked as hard as he did late at night for the Arima Toy Industries, a company that sold toys of all kinds to children. Miwa was originally a stay-at-home mother who took care of Lelouch and Nunnally, but eventually took a part-time job when her kids were older. Although Bunta worked, he did his best to come home and make time for his family. He didn't want his children to grow up feeling their father preferred to work rather than be at home. He worked hard to take care of both Nunnally and Lelouche. Nunnally knew this, but it didn't stop her from lacking confidence in herself and thinking that she would end up spending the rest of her life the way she was. Relying on her family to get her through each passing day as times got harder. When she was five, Nunnally met her older cousins, Rika Arima, Chika Arima, and Euphemia Arima. Euphemia was the same age as Nunnally's brother, but Rika was older, while Chika was the same age as Nunnally. Their mother, Mae Arima, was the CEO and founder of Arima Toy Industries, in memory of her late husband, Kira Arima. She was also the older sister of Bunta, and she would bring her daughters over to visit often for them to spend time with Nunnally and Lelouch.
They would visit so often that Nunnally began to see them as her big sisters, rather than as cousins, often calling "nee-sama". Euphemia was the one who showed her and her brother how to make paper cranes, which the young girl loved to do. When Miwa wasn't tired, she'd take them all to the park so that they could play as much as they wanted, while just being happy that they were happy and getting along. And while Lelouch went to school, Nunnally would be home-schooled, having to be taught academically by tutors. Nunnally wanted to go to school too, just like her brother, but her parents didn't think she was ready to deal with attending school around other kids yet. They were just worried about how it would affect her mentally and emotionally. Nunnally knew what she would be getting into, but she honestly wanted to feel like a person by not being stuck at home and sheltered every day because of her disabilities. They were adamant about their decision not to let Nunnally attend actual school around others, but they eventually caved in after a few years. Placing her in a high-status academy would only put too much pressure on her, so they enrolled her in Seinan Academy since it was a public school with decent reviews regarding its students graduating and being able to move on to decent high schools. Nunnally appreciated that her parents listened to what she wanted, but she also told them that she didn't want to be given special treatment at school either.
Though they were going to hire an aide to assist her as it was required by law, Nunnally wanted to show her parents that she would be fine without it. She assured them that if she did need an aide, she would let them know. They were skeptical, but decided to let their daughter go without an aide. Luckily, the school had special classes for students with disabilities that did help out a lot with her studies, and as she wanted, she wasn't given any special treatment. However, like any school, there would always be peers who would be cruel to her. She put up with it to avoid being a burden to her brother. However, what Nunnally didn't know was that her brother already knew what was going on and would approach her classmates and let them know not to mess with his sister, or they would regret it. It's because of that, that the bullying she endured lessened. It didn't go away entirely, but it did make going to school easier for her. She mainly stayed to herself and wasn't able to make friends in her classes, but she was able to make friends with her brother's friends whenever she was brought to hang out with them at Hakoniwa Academy, who welcomed her with open arms. Nunnally found it nice that others didn't mistreat her and enjoyed having her around. They were members of the student council, and because they were, Nunnally was allowed to join them as well and given easier tasks to do that wouldn't be strenuous or difficult for her.
She wasn't able to attend the more active clubs, but being a member of the student council made her feel nice to be helpful in some way. The other members of the student council are quiet, but they don't ignore her and allow her to be able to assist with any tasks they give her. Nunnally hopes that there will be a chance she'll be able to see everyone someday, accepting that she'll never be able to walk, but at least with the technology being better, there is a chance she will be able to see again. Life may throw out obstacles, but Nunnally will take things a day at a time and won't give up on herself.
