Goals/Aspirations:
Bentley doesn't want much out of life- only to control the world.  Her eyes are not set upon the realm of politics, though that would be a stepping stone.  Her ambitions rise higher.  She wants to become an ambassador by the time she is twenty five; at the very least get a Nobel Peace Prize, and more importantly become one of those people in the smokey room that make the really big decisions in the world.  She knows about that world because of generations in her family who have done just that since the Gilded Age.  She is one of eight heirs to the Rockefeller fortune and is determined to be the one who get all of grandpa-pa's power.


Assets and Strengths:

1. American Royalty- If there is such a thing, and it is, Bentley is considered American Royalty.  Her family founded Harvard.  Her great grandfather receives entire chapters in textbooks.  Her family helped to build America during the Golden Age, helped pay for both World Wars, and then went on to make the world government a thing. There is power in being that connected.
   
   
2. Polished- Bentley has been to finishing schools, has had private tutors, she's had a press agent since she was nine.  She has been groomed to be the American Princess that she is.
   
   
3. Ruthless- Bentley may seem like a nice girl, but get in her way and she will end you.  She is as mean as she is nice and has no problem wielding her fortune to nuclear attack anyone who might try to diminish her tiara.
   
   
4. Brains- Bentley may act the dumb blonde but she's not an idiot.  She's wicked smart and rarely has to study to pull the 4.0 that she has.  More importantly she's aware and strategic.
   
   
5. Queen Bee- Bentley knows how to work a crowd.  She is everyone's best friend and is always there with a complement and a smile.  She understands that networking is key.  After all even Rockefeller had to work with Hurst and Carnegie.

Liabilities and Weaknesses:

1. Bentley is lacking in any awareness of how the lower classes live.  While she has done tons of service and philanthropic work- there is always a distance, a shower, and air conditioning when the day is over.
   
   
2. Bentley is not much for athletics.  Sports leads to getting dirty, besides the uniforms are never natural fibers.
   
   
3. Along with this, Bentley is not an outdoor girl.  The closest she gets to camping is a cabana on a beach.  She cannot wrap her head around why anyone would want to sleep on the ground, take a shower from some sort of bucket, or go hiking.  Exercise in the modern world can be done in a gym with a personal trainer.  No need to live like some sort of pioneer.
   
   
4. Difficulty trusting people- It's said you always react to every relationship through the mirror of our own soul.  Since Bentley considers everyone a potential ally but also a potential enemy, she assumes everyone does the same.  Because of this, she's only made a few deep friendships in her life that she would trust.
   
   
5. Paparazzi Magnet- Bentley has not known many moments in her life where there weren't flashing cameras and shouting reporters.  Consequently she's very rarely had time that is her own.  The family mostly hunkers down onto their private property, but Bentley has always found that claustrophobic.  As a result she has gone out into the world and has become reporter candy.

Description


Bentley is a 18 year old girl with a curvaceous build.  She is polished and if ever found anything less than perfect- you can be sure that it is calculated.  Brittani has an entire staff of shoppers dedicated to make sure she is the height of fashion.  Hair to nails to shoes- Bentley has always known that the world is watching.  She wears designer clothes both modern and vintage.

She is aware that she is representing her family and her future self- so she's careful not to over indulge.  One photo can ruin a future political career.  One bad relationship can end up on Oprah when you're trying to maneuver into a sweet spot in the future. All of these aspects are always on Bentley's mind. She doesn't indulge in drugs, over indulge in alcohol, or participate in activities that might end up with some photo on the internet.

When Bentley walks it is with purpose.  There is a bounce to her step and most of the time a big smile on her face.  She will always give a little wave with her polished nails and enjoys a quick air kiss just to let everyone know that she's your biggest fan. Bentley enjoys commanding a room.  She is intimidating and intense in a way that is unavoidable but tends to leave you wanting to thank her for letting you exist in her presence.


Personality
Bentley is everyone's friend- she's perky and gives off he air of being a little ditsy.  That is right up until you pay attention.  You can disarm most people by being clueless, and Bentley makes that part of her strategy.  She is always there with a complement and a smile.  At least that is the surface.

Below the surface Bentley is a conniving bitch and she knows that.  There is armor beneath that fluffy bunny exterior.  She takes insults as reasons to destroy the person doing the insulting, and she relishes the long game in taking that person down.

Her friends she rewards- handsomely.  The closer the friend the more power she pushes in their direction.  It is a trait she learned from her grandfather, and her great-grandfather before him.  Right now Bentley is looking for her future career ring.  Those people she knows will remain loyal and will help build up the new Golden Age of America.

History
There isn't a person who hasn't heard of the Rockefellers.  The infamous family that created Standard Oil, the Rockefeller Foundation, Chicago University, Rockefeller College, the Lincoln Center in New York, The Museum of Modern Art in New York, and Chase Manhattan Bank.  Their family has been considered one of the pinnacle old families of the world.  Their foundations continue to provide funding for the most prestigious Ivy League and elite colleges in the nation including Harvard, Dartmouth, Princeton, University of California, Stanford, Yale, Brown, and Columbia.  The family runs several foundations that support the arts, build museums, and provide the world with philanthropic pursuits.

The children are brought up to entertain Kings and Queens, run multimillion dollar corporations, run for political office, and to mediate world affairs.  The family was first established in 1723, and over the 301 years- they have bloomed into helping run the world.

Bentley P. Rockefeller is one of eight heirs to the family fortune.  Like most old money, they have their trusts, which were established for them when they were born.  Bentley like her brothers, sisters, and cousins have met with their grandfather once a year to establish their goals for the coming year.  It is a long stressful conversation where the children are called to accounts on whether they have improved the family's standing or stagnated, or diminished it.  That meeting establishes a ranking within the family. Bentley has maintained one of the top three positions since she turned twelve, and has battled with her cousin John D Rockefeller IV for the top spot since she was sixteen.  This year she holds the top position and her grandfather's admiration.  That admiration opens the vaults to her needs.  Bentley chose Lockheath.

The reason to come to Lockheath is simple.  Her mother and father both attended.  She is legacy and as legacy she is expected to exceed her parents success while attending.  There is also an expectation to set up potential alliances and connections which will lead to future successes.

From an early age, Bentley was tutored.  By the time she went to her first private school ad the age of five, she was reading at a fourth grade level.  She attended Choate Rosemary Hall in Connecticut.  The same halls that developed JFK and Adlai Stevenson, helped hone Bentley's political demeanor and polish.

At the age of nine she received her first publicist and press agent- Becky and Dave.  At the age of twelve, she fired them and hired her own.  Richard Brant and Amanda Johnson- since that time she has kept a finger on how she is promoted in the news.  Generally everything that is put out in the world is positive. There is a rumor that the reason that the National Enquirer went out of business in 2019 was because they published an article insinuating that Bentley was behaving badly at a Hollywood party.  A fleet of lawyers descended and by April AMI sold their paper to the Hudson Group.  While Bentley and her grandfather do not have any direct connection to Hudson- it was the banks owned by the Rockefeller family that set up the transaction.

Last year Bentley made the decision to follow her mother and father to their alma mater at Lockheath. While she knows it will be a challenge- the school hardly lives up to the standard of living that Bentley is accustomed to living, she is more than happy to rough it for the advantages that the school provides.

Hooks

1. Old Money that nurtures- The Rockefellers are known to promote talent and greatness.  Showing worth can result in a windfall of money- if they believe in you.
   
   
2. Political power- Bentley's family has members throughout history who have been Governors, Secretary's of state, Vice Presidents, and Senators.  To connect to Bentley is to connect into that great political power well.
   
   
3. It's better to be her friend than her enemy. Bentley is nice- as long as you're nice.
   
   
4. It is possible that if you are old money that you've connected with Bentley through many of the organizations she belongs to.
   
   
5. It is possible if you are new money, that you have been invited to the Rockefeller estate to determine whether you should be allowed into the inner circle of the US Elite.  The success rate is a scant few- but if you have been deemed worthy by her Grandfather there is a certain level of protection that Bentley is required to do.
