Catalina Esperanza Jones-Villanueva
Catalina Esperanza Jones-Villanueva (or just Catie) is a fanmade Axis Powers Hetalia character. She represents the State of Florida, one of America's 50 children.

Personality, Likes & Dislikes
Catalina is, for the most part, rather optimistic and and peppy, doing her best to and easily lifting the moods of those around her. She's strong, independent, sunny, everything a daughter of Antonio's would be. As a child she was raised amongst harsh weather and dangerous wildlife, rendering her rather brave and fearless, as well. Fueling her daredevil actions are her many amusement parks, such as Disney and Busch Gardens. After riding the biggest rides available in your area, you can get a bit...reckless. Trust me.

Catie also has a plethora of likes and hobbies! Things she likes include citrus fruit, the ocean, animals, sports (particularly football), and roller coasters (or, rather, anything dangerous). Things she doesn't like aren't as plenty, but you can easily tack California underneath that list.

As for hobbies; she has tons of 'em, but to name a few, she's particularly fond of playing her guitar, driving around the state, gardening, astronomy, and causing chaos with her friends Macen and Jackson.



Appearance
Catalina is the damned mix of Native American, Hispanic, and British. Having been born a Native and raised under the care of both the former nations, she's developed caramel-toned skin and long, light brown hair. Her amber eyes, however, come from the overall sunshiney nature of the state.

She has a seemingly slim figure with clothes on, but take them off and you'll notice she's not lacking a few extra pounds. She's a bit chubby in the thigh area, is nowhere close to exceeding in the chest department, and could use some exercise.

She normally wears anything that isn't denim or tight-fitting. She prefers clothing that lets her breathe and move feely, her most common outfit being a white and orange tee-shirt, purple shorts, and flipflops.

Across her body are various details, each representing a prominent piece of the state she personifies. A cowlick, being the panhandle; a blue beaded anklet, being the Florida Keys; a small belly button piercing, being Lake Okeechobee; and little scars that litter her skin from hurricanes she's endured over time. Other scars were either attained via fighting with Antonio or general everyday clumsiness.

Alfred F. Jones (America)
Catie is alright with him. Thinks he's a cool guy and all, she just wishes he'd mind his own business and keep his nose out of hers. She's actually his older sister by forty-two years (see: date Jamestown and Saint Augustine were founded).

Antonio Fernandez Carriedo (Spain)
She'll speak his language. She'll claim his nationality. She'll adhere to his culture. But she will NOT call him her father, or enjoy being called so. She loves Spanish culture as it is today and is indeed heavily influenced by it, but three centuries ago she'd have screeched at anyone who so much as suggest that she felt anything close to love for him. She wasn't exactly happy to have been claimed and see her people enslaved.

Arthur Kirkland (England)
Abubu, precious babies. Catie adores Arthur to end, both for having "saved her from Spain" and for keeping her safe even when she was a Spanish colony (the British Navy killed Blackbeard - a pirate notorious for attacking the Floridian coast - whilst Florida was not an English colony at the time).



Colin G. Jones-Greene (State of Washington)
Colin is her closest brother, whom of which has been there for her countless times. If anyone is giving her trouble, or she's feeling stressed, he's the first one to know about it. However, they have heavily conflicting political views, and will sometimes have fits of arguing before forgetting it ever happened. (Note: Colin does not belong to me.)

Macen R. Jones-Hawkins (State of Georgia)
Catie's best friend and biggest rival. Forced to fight against one another as British and Spanish colonies before the Revolution and Patriot vs. Loyalist during the Revolution, they have been through a lost together. Today they try to keep their rivalry contained to just football, but it seems to be spreading to everday things, such as whose population is growing faster or whose land is more fertile. (Macen doesn't belong to me either.)

Logan Kirkland (British West Florida)
Logan is a tiny micronation that stalks her everywhere, telling her "Get married to my daddy." She has declined politely every time and asks Arthur to take him back to Britain, but Logan somehow always finds a way back. (See Dominion of British West Florida)

MKC (Short)
Hey hey papá, I want orange juice!

Hey hey mama, hey hey mama! Somehow I can't forget the taste of the key lime pie I ate earlier! Draw the United States Draw the United States Draw the U.S.A. ¡Hola, estoy la Florida! (Right there, don't you see?) Ah~ Come tour the Everglades-the Seminoles would love to see you. Let's go ride a roller coaster!

¡Hola, Florida!

Trivia

 * Catie is far beyond the point of being addicted to air conditioners and ceiling fans. She can't live without them.


 * She can't drive to save her life.


 * If there's one thing she hates, it's being called Alfred's dick. Don't call her that, because she will get mad.


 * On occasion, she'll call Florida the Dumbshine State, or God's Waiting Room.


 * She treats Romano like a twin sibling, always either bothering him or making fun of people with him. She's been trying to get him to teach her Italian, but he always says she'd butcher his precious language (he's only teasing, though).
