Childhood (1793-1811)

Juliet's childhood was spent trying to step out from Elizabeth's perfect shadow that she had cast over Juliet. Since her birth, Juliet had been loud and the seeker of attention (in a way not dissimilar to her paternal grandmother, Augusta Landon) and found that no matter what she did, she could never measure up to Elizabeth in her mother's opinion. Instead, Juliet has become somewhat of a nuisance to the Landon family, generally causing havoc whenever she can to make sure that her family doesn't forget about her. Because of her closeness in age to Elizabeth, the two grew up alternating between being good friends and worst enemies. The two girls had a variety of tutors hired to teach them a variety of skills, though Juliet tended to scare a lot of them off. It wasn't until Elizabeth left for her Season in 1810 that Juliet began to realize how big of a part her sister played in her life, and began looking forward to when her sister would return home.

Debut (1811)

1811 was a year that Marion Landon had not been looking forward to, as it was the year that she would be forced to unleash Juliet upon society. Though Juliet was not as rambunctious as she had been as a child, there was still some concern that she would muddle something up. So far she has proven to be more outgoing than perhaps accepted in society, but she has found herself with a great many acquaintances and friends already in London, as well as a few potential suitors.

Battle of the Debutantes (1811)

Having only been in London for a week, Juliet has already found herself embroiled in a battle with Julianne Grafton for the title of Incomparable for the 1811 Season. Thus far Juliet has beaten Lady Julianne in newspaper mentions, and Julianne responded by spilling lemonade all over Juliet's dress. Juliet has garnered support from Elizabeth Landon, Charity Pritchard, Elizabeth Dunford and Charlotte Tolson thus far in her quest to bring down Lady Julianne, but only time will tell how the Season will end...

Friendships

Daphne Werlinghton, Duchess of Beaumont - Juliet met her completely by accident, but their odd sort of friendship has proved fruitful. The Duchess seems to really like Juliet, and has introduced her to her brother, Damien Relmsey.

Damien Relmsey, Viscount Torrington - One of Juliet's favourite people in London, she first met him when he was hurt outside of Beningborough House, only to discover that he was the Duchess's brother.

Charlotte Tolson, daughter of the Baron Middleton - Juliet's cousin, who she has taken an instant liking to. She likes Charlotte's sweetness and honesty, a refreshing change from her turbulent relationship with her sister, Elizabeth.

Charity Pritchard, cousin of the Marchioness of Emerson - A new friend, they finally made each others' acquaintance at the Emerson Ball. The two get on like a house on fire, and Charity shares Juliet's distaste of Lady Julianne.

Elizabeth Dunford, sister of the Duke of Claitonborough - Introduced to Juliet via Charity, the two get along quite well, and Juliet is happy to find that there exists another debutante who is almost as impertinent as herself, at times!
