An English Rose is a nostalgic idea of a beautiful young English lady. She is virtuous and possesses a certain type of modest, natural beauty. This character is always of English breeding, and likely to speak in the RP accent. If from a historical period (and upper-class), she was raised to be a Proper Lady. A modern specimen does not need to follow the full set of Proper Lady ideals but still has to be a Nice Girl: well-mannered and goodhearted. An English Rose is often composed and dignified.
