 NAME & AGE
First: Sapphire
Middle: Anastasia
Last: McGonagall
Maiden: not married…yet wink
Origin of Name: McGonagall is ancient Irish Pureblood name. My parents were going to have my first name as Anastasia because they thought it was pretty and dignified, but then when I was born and they saw what a deep blue my eyes were they decided on Sapphire instead. I think it’s a sweet story, but Emmie often asks, albeit half-jokingly, “Couldn’t they have been more original?”
Nickname: Sam (because my initials are S.A.M.) to close friends, Snowfeather to the Marauders – Sapphire to my relatives and everyone else
Age: 18
Birthdate: 10th of May, 1960
Zodiac: Taurus
IDENTITY & APPEARANCE
Gender: female
Height: 5 feet 7 inches
Weight: 8 and a half stones (120 pounds)
Body Type: slender, small-waisted and small-chested
Hair: wavy strawberry-blonde coloured hair to mid-thigh
Eye Colour: dark sapphire blue
Ethnicity: Irish
Handicaps/Disabilities: I’m fortunate enough to not have a malformed limb or lifelong illness. Does a tendency to daydream too often count? question
Special Abilities: Dove animagus for Remy because I’m his fiancé, though I didn’t master the skill until after we graduated.
Other Distinguishing Features: I’m almost always smiling and have a poetry or romance book with me at all times.
Mode of Dress: Skirts, dresses, and frocks. Mummy raised me to be “proper lady.” I usually prefer to wear blue.
FAMILY
Mother: Katelyn McGonagall
Father: lawyer for Ministry Department of Law Enforcement Apollo McGonagall (My grandparents were fond of Roman gods. rofl )
Siblings: None biologically, but I love my friends like sisters.
Notable Extended Family: Auntie Minnie (Daddy’s sister) the professor at Hogwarts
Blood Status: Pureblood
PLACES
Birthplace: Rome, Italy - I’m not even remotely Italian; my parents were on holiday there when I was born. (I told you my family liked Roman things!) Ministry travel officials sometimes give me problems when I travel abroad for having a birth certificate from a foreign state.
Residence1/Dates of Occupancy: Dublin, Ireland
Residence1/Dates of Occupancy: Now, I live in England with Remy.
Schools Attended: Hogwarts School of Witchcraft and Wizardry
Place of Comfort: wherever Remy is heart
AFFILIATIONS
House in School: Gryffindor, but the Hat almost put me in Hufflepuff
Occupation: Write weather reports for the Daily Prophet
Hobbies/Likes: biggrin I love EVERYTHING to do with music: dancing, singing, playing instruments, and writing lyrics! My songs are always love songs because I adore reading romantic poetry and love stories. Because I love romance, I admit to liking everything cliché to do with it (sunsets, candles, chocolates, flowers, etc.) I love to act and watch plays because the theatre is brilliant. Cats are my favourite animals, honeysuckle is my favourite soap/shampoo scent to use, and white poinsettias are the flowers I like best.
Pet Peeves/Dislikes: People that don’t take care of their pets, bad manners, prejudice, pessimism, violence, infidelity. There is absolutely nothing worse than someone who isn’t loyal.
Clubs: Slug Club. Emmie says it’s because my family is wealthy and well-connected, and he knew I’d work for the Prophet and wanted an ‘in’ at the newspapers, but I’m sure it’s just because he was being nice. I went to the parties so I didn’t hurt Slughorn’s feelings, yet even though I tried to make the best of it, I didn’t usually have fun because Remy was never invited.
Special Recognition: Prefect in my 5th year
RELATIONSHIPS
Sexual Orientation: I always fancied Remy, even when I was trying to get over him by dating other nice people. Does that make me Remusexual?
Previous Partner(s): I dated Aaron from Hufflepuff for a few months after Remy had already turned me down. Ronnie is a sweetie, but it didn't work out between us. It's okay, though, because I'm with Remy now, and Ronnie and I are still friends. 4laugh
Current Partner/Love Interest: Remus Lupin. I call him Remy.
Pets: White Persian cat named Fiona. I call her Fi.
Best Friend: Emmeline Vance. My nickname for her is Emmie.
Friends: Caydie, Lily, Mary, Remy's friends
Acquaintances: All of the Prefects since I talked to them during rounds.
Rival/Enemy: I try not to have enemies and to see the good in everyone. razz
Reputation: Everyone thinks of me as the girl that’s obsessed with love, which is definitely true! It depends on the person if they consider this a good or a bad thing about me. I think most people like it because they know that they can come to me for advice, comfort or support.
DISPOSITION
Personality - positive characteristics: cheerful, optimistic, looks for the good in everyone, sympathetic, supportive, affectionate, difficult-to-anger, honest, devoted, gives second chances (unless a person was unfaithful)
Personality - negative characteristics: More than one person has told me that I’m “too trusting for my own good.” What’s wrong with giving people the benefit of the doubt? I don’t know, maybe I am rather gullible and naive about people’s motivations. When I was younger (thankfully I’ve learned better by now) I didn’t speak to an elder or a male unless I was spoken to first because I was taught that it wasn’t “a woman’s place.” I tend to let people take advantage of my willingness to help, though I never realise they're doing it at the time.
Intelligence: My intellect mostly lies more in musical creativity rather than spellwork. I’m average in all of my classes (I usually acheive Acceptables, but if I work VERY hard I can sometimes get Exceeds Expectations.) except for three. I’m awful at Arithmancy because numbers and I have never gotten along. I’m great at history (it’s where some of the best tales of love are), and reading the heavens in astronomy. They're the only two subjects I get O's in and neither of them involve practical magic.
Behaviour: I’m the girl that says, “Aw, that’s so cute!” when other people are gagging because they think it’s too sweet. I’m such a hopeless romantic! smile
Habits: I have a habit that annoys most people: I give everyone a cute-sy nickname, meaning it has to end in the “ee” sound. Lily already sounds that way, and Emmie and Remy don’t mind, but I think it makes Jamie and Siri want to kill me. I don’t know why I do it. If I know it bothers someone I try to stop, but my mouth won’t obey. It’s like I have a Name Speech Disorder! It’s only with names, so if I call of the teachers “Professor” then I’m safe, however, if I vocalise their name it’s definitely coming out “Professor Sprouty” or “Professor Sluggie.” redface
Speech/Accent/Voice: upper class Irish accent – Sometimes, I speak Gaelic when I’m upset.
Strengths: According to others, I let people take advantage of me, but even if that’s true I never tolerate someone harming another person (whether they’re my friend or not). I can usually predict the weather. When people ask me how I predict it, I try to explain it’s due to the way the air feels and tastes…Then, they give me strange looks. I’m also good at weather charms. Weather charms are considered very difficult magic, so why can I do them and not some of the easier charms?
Weaknesses/Insecurities: I’m practically a hazard to everyone when I try flying on a broomstick, especially since my fear of heights doesn’t help. Honesty is usually a good thing, but it’s bad that I can’t lie directly. For example, if someone asks me where Remy is on the full moon I can say, “He’s out with his friends,” because it’s technically truthful, but I can’t claim “I don’t know.”
I'm telling you about my childhood, so here's a picture of a younger me! 4laugh
BACKSTORY
My parents are much more strict and old-fashioned than my darling Auntie Minnie, and people say she’s uptight. My mother groomed me to dress very femininely and to be polite at all times, which doesn’t bother me at all except when I want to speak my mind and Mummy deems it inappropriate for a woman. My father is careful about who and what his “little princess” gets exposed to. They’re completely accepting of me being friends with people of different statuses, however, for a marriage they told me that they’d “strongly prefer” me to have a wealthy pureblood match. I know they only want what’s best for me, and I love them for that, but I’m afraid that we don’t see eye to eye.
They believed that a proper lady should be able to play the violin, so Mummy gave me instructions on how since I was three years-old. They taught me Gaelic songs to sing along to the melodies I played. My playing sounds nice, though I know that my voice (while it won’t precisely kill your eardrums) often has trouble keeping tempo. Despite the fact that my voice isn’t the best, when I am depressed or frightened I sing to cheer myself up, and I often sing to cheer up others. Sometimes, I’m successful at brightening others’ moods, and other times they tell me to shut it because I'm only irritating them more.
I despise the prejudice views and violence Voldemort is spreading, but none of my friends want me to join the Order because they said I’d show too much mercy to opponents that would show me none. I can see their point, but what kind of Gryffindor am I if I don’t join?
-
MAGICAL ME
Wand: Fir, Augurey feather, ten inches. - Resilient. Excellent for weather charms
Memory caused by Dementors: When I was seven I climbed out onto the roof of our large house to stargaze. I fell off, and the long drop was the scariest thing to have ever happened to me in my young life. I broke my left shoulder and hip. My parents mended my bones easily, but I know how close I came to breaking my neck, and if I had broken that then I would’ve been dead before anyone could have helped me.
Memory used for Patronus: whee One day in the common room when I was upset and Remy and Emmie both sat on either side of me to offer comfort. It’s a simple memory, not a life-changing one, but I felt so loved that nothing makes a better Patronus.
Form of Patronus: Occamy – defensive winged serpent that I suspect represents Emmie
Boggart: light blue strip beneath my feet – Most people can’t deduce that it indicates the sky being beneath me. I’ve been horrified of heights ever since that incident when I was seven.
Riddikulus: blue strip ripples, becoming waves of water with dolphins jumping in it lol
Amortentia: red roses, (probably due to their association with romance), lemon wood polish (probably due to its use on instruments), forests and chocolate (definitely due to Remy!)
Mirror of Erised: World Peace – Perhaps that sounds like a cliché thing to say at a beauty pageant and you don’t believe that my deepest desire wouldn’t be something selfish, but my life is so good that I don’t want anything major for myself. A world full of love and free of prejudice for my friends and family to live in is truly what I want most. Voldemort would have to be gone for that to happen. Well, since I want harmony for the sake of people that matter to me, rather than for the sake of the world itself, maybe it is a little a selfish.

I have no clue where he got the Kate from. Age: 11 in 1971 Birth date: April 21st, 1960 Zodiac: Taurus IDENTITY & APPEARANCE Gender:Female Height: At 11, I was 4’11”. By 14, I was 5’ 10”.

(Dies 6 months after my dad) Father: Daniél Murray- 2nd in Command of the Alpha Squad of Aurors.(One step under Head Auror.) (Dies the summer after my first year. He was one of the first killed by robber. I saw it and I couldn’t help...him) Adoptive/Step Parents: I have no step parents. I do have two amazing godparents though. Charles and Dora Potter! (They die in my seventh year.) Siblings: Two! Marcus and Sean Murray. (Twins, they are 20 years older then me. I lost contact with them when I was 12 since they are undercover Aurors.) Notable Extended Family: My first cousin is Alice Prewett. She is pretty awesome. Blood Status: Pureblood PLACES Birthplace: Paris, Frances Residence1/Dates of Occupancy: Paris- birth to 6 months. (For a gig my mum had.) Residence2/Dates of Occupancy: Godric Hollows. I lived there from October 1960 through the rest of my life. Schools Attended: Hogwarts Place of Comfort: Quidditch Pitch. I love anywhere with natural running water. I also love the library. It is my favorite part of all of Hogwarts! AFFILIATIONS House in School: Gryffindor Occupation: Student, eventually Order member. I become a healer. (It allows spies in St. Mungo for the Order!) Hobbies/Likes: Reading, singing, writing, laughing, talking, and hanging out. I also enjoy flying and being by myself. Pet Peeves/Dislikes: Tapping Clubs: Gryffindor Keeper since 2nd year. President of Transfiguration Club. Slug Club. I am in the Hogwart's Chorus. That is one way to make sure Ariel and I have more time to talk and laugh together. Special Recognition: Co-Captain of Quidditch for 3 years. President of Transfiguration Club [My best subject. I’m the top of my class. I also enjoy Potions, DADA and Charms.] Special Services to the School in 7th year. [[I risked my life to save James and Lily when Voldemort hunted them down. Who wouldn’t do that for their best friends? So maybe I was in St. Mungos for a month, it was worth it. Plus, we kept Voldemort from getting to the school until Dumbledore got there.]] RELATIONSHIPS Sexual Orientation: Straight Previous Partner(s):It is a surprise midears biggrin Current Partner/Love Interest: I have a slight crush on James but I know he will always be Lily’s Pets: Owl named Nala. Best Friend: James, Lily and Ariel. Lily was one of the first people I met on the train. We are so alike, we've been friends ever since! James and Ariel have been my best friends since we were little kids (James and I since nappies and Ariel joined the group when we were four.) Even if Ariel's on one of our competing quidditch teams, we still love her. (..even if Gryffindor is better haha) Is it weird I have three best friends? Two of them fight so much that all of Hogwarts gets mad at them and the other is in a completely different house then me. biggrin Friends: Sapphire, Emmeline Teresa, and Sirius. [Remus is getting there. He tries to shun people but before too long, I will be his friend! It is my mission!] I am pretty close to my cousin Alice. Acquaintances: When two of your best friends are James Potter and Lily Evans, Head Boy and Head Girl, and everything else, how could you not be pretty acquainted with most everyone in school? Plus, I am pretty friendly myself Rival/Enemy: No real enemy, I just don't really like how the Slytherins treated people. There is this really sweet girl in there though. smile So they aren't all bad. (I've tried to tell James this, yet he won't listen.) Reputation: The Slytherins think I am a stuck up (insert not nice word here). Most of the boys don’t even notice my personality since my Veela-ness is pretty obvious. It is so annoying! The other Gryffindors think I am a loud, hyper, intelligent and caring person with an attitude. They try not to make me mad. Let’s just say it’s ten times worse then Lily’s. My best friends think I am pretty nice I guess. I like to hide myself. It’s not the best quality, but it’s me. DISPOSITION Personality - positive characteristics: I can almost make anyone smile being my hyper self. I am pretty intelligent. People say I get along with any type of personality. I care, often too much. I hate the limelight (That is positive right). I am open to almost anything. Modest is something I try to be. I would sacrifice anything for someone I love. Seeing as I am a Gryffindor, I am brave and outspoken. I am very loyal. Like James, I believe it is a sin to betray your friends. I try to be supportive in everything my friends do. (Hopefully I am!) Personality - negative characteristics: I am very gullible. I will believe anything. I get jealous very easily. I have a huge temper! You really don’t want to be the receiving end. I am unbelievably disorganized and impatient. Also, I hide a lot. I don’t know if I’ve ever been really straight up with anyone. Ariel and James have had years experience of putting the puzzle together. Oh and my worst quality is my Veela-ness. It isn’t really part of my personality, but I hate it! Intelligence: As stated earlier, Transfiguration comes so amazingly easy to me. Potions, DADA, and Charms are other classes I excel in. Herbology, Care of Magical Creatures, Astronomy, Runes, and Arithmancy are fun. I hate History of Magic, Divination, and Muggle Studies. They are so boring! I don’t do badly in those classes exactly because I have gotten straight O’s my whole school career. (That comes from natural talent and hard work. A lot of hard work. Believe me!) I dropped the History, Divination, Muggle Studies, for OWLs in 5th year and Care of Magical Creatures because I had too much on my plate in 6th year. (I still took the NEWTs for each of them because if I ever decided to stop being Healer, I would have endless opportunities for jobs! Yeah, I know they don't generally let you do that, but I talked to McGonagall ;D) Behavior: I work to try and keep everyone happy. I can’t function if someone is mad at me. (Unless it’s a Slytherin because I don't really like most of them). I hate fights and I often shun myself off from people if I get into one. It is really weird, but that is just how I am. Habits: I bite my nails when I am nervous. I hum when I am scared. Oh and I need hugs if I am scared. Weird I know biggrin ! Speech/Accent/Voice: I have a slight French accent. My voice is also kinda low, but not too low. Strengths: I help pretty much anyone as long as they are not rude. I feel it is my responsibility to help people. That’s why I decided to become a Healer when I was three. It’s stuck since. I am extremely supportive I guess. Weaknesses/Insecurities: I am so scared people are just my friends because of me being a half Veela. I don’t wish it on the worst of people. Also, I am scared to show the real me. BACKSTORY My Mum met my dad at the Leaky Cauldron a year after they both graduated. She had graduated from Beauxbatons and Dad had graduated from Hogwarts. Every single Murray (excluding the ones married in) in the history of Murray’s have gone to Hogwarts.  They met and two and a half years later, they were married and pregnant. No, not with me. 9 months later, Sean and Marcus were born. For 3 years, both of my parents began to work on their careers. Mum was a singer and Dad was working his way up in the ranks since he was an auror. Well, Dad eventually officially earned the right to get a partner and who would it be except Dad’s best friend from school? Mum and Dad started to get closer to the Potters. It was then that Dad and Charles Potter became closer then ever and Dora and mum became great friends. They eventually moved to houses next to each other. Seventeen years later, both set of adults were 40 and pretty much thought having kids at that age was a no go. What a surprise when my mum realized she was pregnant and Dora a week later discovered the same thing. James Henry and Cayden Harlow were born within a month of each other. The weird thing about it was I was due March 27 and James was due April 21 and we switched dates. Things like that have always happened to us. Well Mum was in Paris for a gig so we spent the first 6 months of my life there. Dora came to visit with James 2 to 3 times a week. We got to go home after that and Godric Hollows has been my home ever since. James and I stuck together when we were younger. Ariel was always there too. We were the Three Musketeers. We could always be found together. My mum wasn’t around much because of her gigs and dad, Charles, and Dora were all aurors so they were gone often too. Ariel's Mum and Gran were often busy also. We had tons of babysitters but as long as I can remember, James and Ariel have always been the people who had been there with me through thick and thin. We got in trouble together, laughed together and maybe once or twice, cried together. When I was seven, I was playing in the yard when an asthma attack struck me. Most wizards are immune to muggle diseases but I wasn’t. I was in the hospital for 3 weeks. Ariel was able to come once or twice while I was there. But James made his parents come and visit me every day. Not that they wouldn’t since I was their goddaughter but James was always with me. He always had been. He was my best friend and without him and Ariel, I wouldn’t have gotten anywhere. So when we went to Hogwarts and James fell for the wrong girl, sure I was upset, but he had always been there for me, I had to be there for him. MAGICAL ME Wand: Willow, Demiguise Hair, 12 ¾ inches, pliable (excellent for transfiguration) Memory caused by Dementors: My dad’s death is always the one that comes to mind. Memory used for Patronus: The first day of first year where I met all my friends. It was when they actually looked past the veela to actually meet me. Form of Patronus: Doe. They are kind and caring creatures with an attitude. They are also very protective. Boggart: A stopwatch ticking. My greatest fear is time. I have no clue how long I will have with those I love. Stupid fear, I know. Riddikulus: The watch would become the sun with a face singing a song. Amortentia: The smell of fresh new books (Library) , freshly mown grass (Quidditch), vanilla (Favorite scent), and the smell in the air right before it rains (Place of comfort). Mirror of Erised: Happily married to someone who loves me and isn’t just attracted to me.

Selene = Means "moon" in Greek. This was the name of a Greek goddess of the moon, sometimes identified with the goddess Artemis,(my father’s name)
Minesca = comes from the Greek Meniscus, which means “crescent-shaped body” or “Lunar Crescent” to be more prescise with the Ancient Greek Meniskos.

She raised me more than mum did and I was even named after her, Her name was Luna Selene Minesca, and I was given her middle name as mine. I now wear her necklace everyday. Since I never had memories of my father, it was the pictures and stories she shared with me that make him feel apart of me. I wish I could remember more of him. Gran always said I look just like him.

Place of Comfort: I enjoy reading in front of a fire, I often fall asleep over things I’m reading or working on. It’s a bad habit I know, but I have this knack for being able to sleep anywhere. James likes to tease me about it.
AFFILIATIONS
House in School: Ravenclaw
Occupation: Student
Hobbies/Likes: Singing, Reading, Quidditch and charms. I like to experiment with spells and charms, play with the words and try to come up with my own similar spells to see if I can make them work.
Pet Peeves/Dislikes: I do not like senseless fighting, and I am not a fan of killing or harming animals either.
Clubs: I’m a Quidditch player for the Ravenclaw team and I’m a member of the Hogwarts chorus.
Special Recognition: Whatever goes along with the above I suppose.
RELATIONSHIPS
Sexual Orientation: I like boys.
Previous Partner(s): I’ve never been on a date, but I would like to someday. If someone ever asked me.
Current Partner/Love Interest: I’m Single. I have a fondness for Xeno and Remus, they are both pleasant people to chat with.
Pets: I have sweet little pet boa at home named Slink, and for school, my Gran bought me a white cat named Artemis.(I named him after my father)
Friends: James, Xeno,Cayden, Justin, and Lily are all very dear friends to me.
Acquaintances: My teammates and fellow Ravenclaw students.
Rival/Enemy: Beyond Quidditch, I don’t have anyone I consider enemies. Slytherins aren’t always nice, but I only dislike the ones that go out of their way to bully others.
Other Non-Family Relationships: Cayden Harlow Murray and James Potter are friends of mine from home at Godric Hollows. I have always viewed James as a kind of brother, I should tell him that more often I suppose. I just figure it is one of those things that can go unsaid and be known.
Reputation: (Others' general opinion of you and whether or not it's true.) I know people don’t always understand me. You could say I’m a bit unusual and soft hearted. I enjoy speaking what’s on my mind and pondering over things most people don’t take the time to wonder about. I do say things sometimes, just to see how others react as I find people fascinating subjects of inquiry.
DISPOSITION
Personality - positive characteristics: I am gentle and kind to my friends. I try to tell the truth as much as possible. I truly believe we are judged by the measure of our own character.
Personality - negative characteristics: I tend to not get a lot of content in jokes, and insults until someone is kind enough to explain them. I won’t lie to my friends just so they’ll feel better.
Intelligence: Charms and Care of Magical Creatures are my favorite and best subjects. I do well in DADA, Herbology, and Astronomy. I have some trouble with Transfiguration at the start, but with practice I get much better at it. My worst subject is Divination, truly I try, but the things I come up with just never seem to be what the cosmos have told Professor Trelawney.
Behavior: I’m mostly calm, but I can be enthusiastic about things I’m interested in. I’ve very curious in nature and I have an optimistic perspective on things.
Habits: I can sleep anywhere, and usually do.
Speech/Accent/Voice: Calm and airy. I have a slightly higher pitch than some girls my age but I don’t annoy others since I don’t squeal and shout.
Strengths: My curiosity and accepting nature are qualities I’m proud of. I’m also talented at creating and experimenting with spells and charms. It’s a hobby of mine.
Weaknesses/Insecurities: I have trouble making new friends quickly and I never win fights, verbal or physical (not that I get into many).
BACKSTORY ( you have the majority of the information already, but here I go again)
I never really knew my father since he died when I was young. Even though my Gran told me I looked like him, sometimes the photos and stories just aren’t enough and I wish I could meet him just for a day to see what he was like. My Gran and I had fun shopping for my school supplies and she even bought me a cat to take with me to school, which I named Artemis, after my father. She laughed and said he would have found that funny too. It makes me smile. She passed her sleep a week before school started so going to school my first year begins with a bit of a downer. I know it’s been hard on my mother, she was never close to her own family, but for some reason she just won’t talk to me about it. I’m thankful I have friends who understand though.
I enjoy experimenting with charms and spells as a hobby, but I’ve said that several times now, I hope this repetition was expected given how similar all these questions are.
I plan on growing up and getting a job with the Department of Mysteries and also hope to have a family of my own someday.
MAGICAL ME
Wand: Elm, Unicorn hair core, 10 ¾ inches
Memory caused by Dementors: The dream I keep having of my mother dying, I’m scared I’ll loose her just like my dad and Gran.
Memory used for Patronus: My ninth birthday, my Gran bought me my first broom and then took me to a Quidditch Game.
Form of Patronus: A unicorn, it makes me smile.
Boggart: A salamander, I’ve had some scary nightmares with them.
Riddikulus: I turn it into a little rabbit! I love rabbits!
Amortentia: rose petals and cinnamon sprinkled hot chocolate.
Mirror of Erised: I see myself with a job at the Department of Mysteries at the Ministry of Magic, it’s my goal in life. I could have a family there with me, but I wouldn’t be able to tell you who’d I marry at this point. If there was a daughter, I hope we name her Luna though. That would make me very happy.

Marauders' Role Play Character Application
 NAME & AGE
First: Justin
Middle: *cough* Arch *cough* Erm, what was that? I don’t have a middle name. At least, no one knows it.
Last: Turner
Maiden: *snort* You’ve got to be kidding me.
Origin of Name: Justin is just or fair. Turner is English for someone that turns something. I like the definition I once found though that it comes from an English Occupational name for the person refereeing a game.
Nickname: NO Nicknames! Except, *wince* Sapphire said my first name once. Lily helped me convince her to refer to me as Turnee.
Age: I’m in the same year as Lily, just over three months older than her. 11 on September 1, 1971.
Birth date: October 14, 1959
Zodiac: I don’t pay attention to zodiac signs. I’ll have to look that up. Ah, I’m a Libra. Hmm.
IDENTITY & APPEARANCE
Gender: Male.
Height: Average. I’m taller than Potter, shorter than Black.
Weight: Again, average. I don’t really keep track of these unimportant numbers.
Body Type: Athletic.
Hair: Light brown.
Eye Color: Chocolate brown.
Ethnicity: Welsh-English.
Handicaps/Disabilities: None that come to mind.
Special Abilities: My talent at Quidditch is pretty special to me. I do have my own Chaser play that I created. Potter is starting to learn how to block it though.
Other Distinguishing Features: Er, I have three moles on the back of my left hand that make a perfect isosceles triangle. Just kidding. Why are you looking strangely at my hands now? My ears randomly turn red; it usually functions to cool me off. Sometimes it’s just one ear, too. I look rather odd when that happens.
Mode of Dress: Wizarding robes. I usually try to find a way to show my house colors though. I also like to make my own interesting hats. I’m proficient in dressing like Muggles, and sometimes I’ll wear Muggle clothing on the holidays.
FAMILY
Mother: Muggleborn Elizabeth (White) Turner. She’s an Unspeakable in the Department of Mysteries.
Father: Pureblood Algie Turner. He’s head of the Ministry’s Department of Games and Sports. Slughorn really liked that. His sister is Augusta Longbottom, Frank's mum.
Adoptive/Step Parents: During the summers, I’m over at Lily Evans’s house a lot. Whenever Snape isn’t over there, actually. But anyway, Mr. and Mrs. Evans always treat me like a son.
Siblings: I have a little sister, Hannah, who gets sorted into Hufflepuff. She’s a year younger than me. I view Lily as a sister, too.
Notable Extended Family: Erm, on my father’s side, I’m related to the Longbottoms. I’m pretty close with Frank, as he’s my first cousin. Of course, I’m distantly related to all the purebloods. My Grandfather on Mum’s side is high ranking in the Muggle Ministry.
Blood Status: I’m technically a half-blood. Like Remus Lupin, my mother is Muggleborn. My father is Pureblood though.
PLACES
Birthplace: Tyldesley, Manchester, England
Residence1/Dates of Occupancy: I was born and raised in Tyldesley.
Schools Attended: Before Hogwarts, my mum insisted that I go into the Muggle Primary School by the name of Garrett Hall Primary School.
Place of Comfort: My room. The library at Hogwarts.
 AFFILIATIONS
House in School: Ravenclaw! Go Eagles!
Occupation: Er, student, I suppose. I would love to get picked to play Quidditch for England.
Hobbies/Likes: I love Quidditch. I like drawing. When I have free time, I like doodling and sketching on a scrap of parchment. When I’m not playing Quidditch for Ravenclaw, I will make silly hats to support the team I’m cheering for. Usually Hufflepuff if Ravenclaw’s not playing. And, if I have to pick a side, Gryffindor before Slytherin.
Pet Peeves/Dislikes: I hate rules that don’t make sense. Rules for the sake of having rules, that irritates me loads. I dislike when someone is obviously lying to me. I hate the Pureblood mania. Again, it’s stupid rules and stigmatism.
Clubs: I am a Ravenclaw Chaser. Have been since second year. Stupid school rules wouldn’t allow us to try-out as firsties. I hated that. But anyway, I do belong to the Slug Club, dull and boring though that might be. Sluggy apparently liked how well-connected I was within the Ministry. It helps when both parents work there.
Special Recognition: I was made the Ravenclaw prefect in my fifth year. I had the honor and privilege of being made Quidditch Captain in my fourth, fifth, sixth, and seventh years.
RELATIONSHIPS
Sexual Orientation: Er, straight.
Previous Partner(s): *cough* Really? I don’t think I’ll say this one. Lily’s the only one that knows and she’s promised not to say anything to anyone.
Current Partner/Love Interest: Er, I kinda fancy this girl in my house, Ariel, but for some reason she hangs around that Lovegood character. Honestly, I don’t know what she sees in him. He’s mental.
Pets: An Owl. My little sister named him “Garion.” I call him “Grayen.” He answers to both. He technically belongs to Hannah, and that's why she got to name him. For Hogwarts, I eventually convinced my dad to get me a cat. For some reason he wanted to get me a toad. I really don't know why he's so attached to the notion.
Best Friend: I suppose I’d consider Lily my best friend, although I know she doesn’t consider me hers.
Friends: I’m good friends with my cousin, Frank Longbottom; and, so, ranking in importance and prominence in my life, Hannah, my sister; Ariel; Lily; Frank; Akira; Remus Lupin; most of my house; many people in Hufflepuff; Cayden; Sapphire.
Acquaintances: Black probably fits here. He’s too loyal to Potter to be very nice to me, unless he has a secret mission. The rest of Hogwarts. I know who people are for many months before I approach them.
Rival/Enemy: Potter. And Snape. For a completely different reason than they rival each other. My rivalry with Potter is pretty obvious as we play the same Quidditch position on opposing teams. And the rivalry naturally spikes and plummets depending on the Quidditch schedule. Snape, well, he just sets my teeth on edge. Some of the things he says are completely biased. I try to swallow my dislike for him when I’m around Lily, though. I know better than to say anything to her. But the time will come when she'll have to see what I see.
Reputation: I am thought to be rather haughty or arrogant, but I just don’t know how to approach people. I am smart, that’s true. Others know that I have lots of house pride, and I am quite vocal about that. I’ve been called Quidditch obsessed, but I think Lily was just in a bad mood. I don’t know what she was talking about, it’s completely normal for any teenage wizard to freak out because they got tickets to the Appleby Arrows game.
 DISPOSITION
Personality - positive characteristics: Get me one on one or in a small group and I am a true listener. I am very good at empathizing with others. I am kind, nice, smart, and not at all judgmental. I enjoy nice intellectual humor, and frequently exit my common room just to see what question it will ask next.
Personality - negative characteristics: I am painfully shy in new situations and rather sarcastic when I do speak up.
Intelligence: I am a Ravenclaw, we are rather quick-witted, you know. I have E’s in nearly all of my classes. Transfiguration is my most challenging class, I’m always fighting to keep above an A. Potions would be in the same boat, but Lily helps me out when she can, and so it’s a bit easier. I like Charms and Care of Magical Creatures. In fact, I actually am keeping an O in Care of Magical Creatures.
Behavior: I behave. My father, who was in Gryffindor by the way, taught me to treat all ladies chivalrously. And I do, it’s nearly a habit. Sisters aren't ladies though, so there.
Habits: I’ve been told that I am one of those nervous quill tappers when I’m studying for a test. I don’t realize when I’m doing it, though.
Speech/Accent/Voice: I have a rather soft voice, with a proper British accent, but I can yell and shout if you get me excited.
Strengths: Quidditch. Get me on a broom and I’ll out fly anyone in my House.
Weaknesses/Insecurities: Social situations. Speeches. I hate giving a speech. I also write a terrible first draft of any essay. I can’t figure out how to get the words from my brain down onto the paper.
 BACKSTORY
I was born and raised in Tyldesley in Manchester. Mum wanted me and my sister to go into a Muggle primary school to allow us to observe Muggles. However, Father enrolled both of us a year early. I was a year younger than those Muggles in my class. Also of note, in my class was Petunia Evans. Her sister, Lily, who was actually my age, was in Hannah’s class. The summer after I turned eleven, I got my Hogwarts letter and was sorted into Ravenclaw. I later found out that Lily was a Muggleborn witch, like my mum, and was in Gryffindor. I thought I recognized the redhead during that first Quidditch match. Anyway, Lily and I started hanging out at Slughorn’s first Christmas party. It wasn’t until the summer after our first year that I figured out that Snape lived in the same area as both of us.
MAGICAL ME
Wand: Unicorn hair, twelve and a quarter inches, cedar wood. Ollivander said that it was quite springy.
Memory caused by Dementors: No specific memory comes to mind unless there is continued exposure. I’d remember the time Hannah broke my toy broom, the time she crashed my real one and Mum said it was totaled, the time Mum washed my mouth out, and when Father had to sit me down and scold me for avoiding my lessons. Things like that.
Memory used for Patronus: The faces of my friends.
Form of Patronus: A, er, sparrow. I blame Ravenclaw for indulging a worship of birds. Sparrows can be quite fierce though, so it’s not all bad.
Boggart: Professor Dumbledore welcoming me up to a podium. Most people when they see my boggart think I am afraid of the headmaster. I am not. I hate speeches so much that I fear them.
Riddikulus: Dumbledore changes into my mum’s dress and says in a high voice, “Dear, you’ve just made me cry, your speech was so excellent!”
Amortentia: In it, I can smell musty parchment, trifle, and sun-warmed grass.
Mirror of Erised: Myself holding the Quidditch World Cup with all my loved ones faces standing out from the cheering crowd. Hannah
Marauders' Role Play Character Mini-Profile
Note:This is the first and last time you will get my first-person point of view. Don’t get used to it. I’m only speaking up here because everyone voted that I needed to give a description of myself.
My older brother is Justin Turner. A lot of what is on his paper applies to me. Use your logic to work out which parts.
First: Hannah
Middle: Emily
Last: Turner
Age: I’m one year, seven months, and twenty-one days younger than Justin. That also means that I am one school year younger than him.
Birth date: July 5, 1961
Gender: Female
Body Type: Normal, slender.
Hair: honey brown, it’s normally straight, but I like to curl it. I also like to put it in pigtails.
Eye Color: Blue-green.
Other Distinguishing Features: I’ve been told I have an expressive face.
Mode of Dress: Due to my mum’s choice of schooling, I am very familiar with dressing like Muggles, but I still like Wizarding Robes better. I model Justin’s hats a lot.
House in School: Hufflepuff
Hobbies/Likes: I love to watch the Quidditch matches. I love trains and I’m completely enamored with the Hogwarts Express. I take it every chance I can get.
Clubs: I’m in the Hogwarts Chorus.
 Personality I’m a very happy, cheerful person. I like to tease my brother and play games. I’m slightly mischievous, but certainly not as much as those boys in Lily’s year. I avoid conflict like the plague, especially with people I don’t know well. I’m very friendly, and will talk to just about anyone.
Intelligence: I like puzzles, and so I like Ancient Runes, Arithmancy, and Transfiguration, and I’m also pretty good at Herbology and Potions.
Behavior: I am rather clumsy. I tend to drop things and trip over my own feet occasionally. Justin has accused me of being bouncy, too.
Habits: Habits are things that you do repeatedly without meaning to, right? Right. Well, Justin said I repeatedly broke all of his brooms, but I swear I didn’t mean to. Brooms just don’t like me on them for some reason.
Speech/Accent/Voice: I have a normal accent, and I do laugh a lot. Oh, and voice. Er, I’m a mezzo-soprano.
Notable Relationships: Justin’s my brother. Frank is our cousin. Lily is a very close friend to me. I like talking to Ariel, and Cayden and Sapphire when I see them. I also have a little crush on a Slytherin boy in my year. And I love visiting Garion, my owl. Justin calls him Grayen, but don’t listen to him. It’s Garion.

Reading a good book, Magic, Animals, Flying; maybe I’ll get picked for the quidditch team, I’ve always watched but never played who knows maybe I’m good at it. I love playing my violin.
Pet Peeves/Dislikes: This interview
Clubs: Just moved here so nothing yet. Like I said hopefully I’ll get to try my hand at quidditch, but I love dueling.

DISPOSITION
Personality - positive characteristics: I’m bubbly and happy most of the time. I like to flirt. I’m easy to get along with as long as you don’t piss me off.
Personality - negative characteristics: I have a bad temper when you piss me off. I do hold grudges at times; especially if it really hurt me.
Intelligence: Um I think my best would be Charms and DADA. Really bad at Astronomy, but I think that’s the only class I have a problem with.
Behavior: I’m a good girl I guess. I don’t sleep around if that’s what your implying. Yes I flirt but they are totally different.
Habits: Twirling my wand, pencil or whatever I have in my hand that resembles my wand, when I get bored. Tapping my fingers also when I get bored and don’t have anything to twirl.
Speech/Accent/Voice: I have an accent but I don’t think there is anything wrong with that. I’m working on it. One used to not be able to understand me.
Strengths: I’m a good talker and always know what to say. I look little but I put up a big fight; let that be a warning to you all now that I’m here.
Weaknesses/Insecurities: I fidget when I don’t know what to say, doesn’t happen often but it does happen. When I like someone I let it show, which often leads to trouble if they are already attached.
BACKSTORY
Well I don’t really know. I’ve told you a lot already. My parents meet in school when the triwizard tournament was held at Beauxbatons; where my mother attended school. My father went to Drumstrang. They fell in love while competing against each other and were inseparable since then. Yeah all cute and mushy. They got married when my mother turned 20 and my dad 22. A year after that they had me.
Mom taught me how to play the violin when I was four. I do say that I am very good with it. I love the sound and love to play in piece. I don’t like when people are listen when I know they are, it messes me up.
Mom and Dad weren’t settled with just a girl so they tried one more time and got my twin brothers Lucan and Alexander. They are the sweetest of sweeties when they want to be but otherwise they are as annoying as your smell.
I can be very sarcastic and witty when I want to, and I think my self to be very smart for my age. Mom and Dad raised me to be modest but school and friends got the better of me and is probably why you can usually find me flirting with someone, or with a crowd of boys talking to me. I am very comfortable with who I am and wont change for anybody.
I take making friends seriously and wont take anyone’s crap. I can be defensive and arrogant at times but it’s just who I am.
I don’t really know what else to tell you, so I hope this is enough for your “Interview”.
MAGICAL ME
Wand: 13 1/13 inch, ebony and mercury. Interesting and unusual are severe understatements for this Gregorovitch wand. Good for all the magic I seem to practice.
Memory caused by Dementors: I dont really want to tell you but I suppose I will. Havent really talked about this before so I'm a little uncomfortable. Well um...can we just skip this...no? okay dont write this in your report though, remember my father is a lawyer. Okay well I was raped when I was 14. Never found the pervert, but hopefully he will be.
Memory used for Patronus: When my best friend Katrienna was able to come with me to England to see our new home before I moved away from her. We had so much fun.
Form of Patronus: A falcon
Boggart: I’ve never encountered one but have heard that they are what you fear the most and I fear a really big snake that could wrap all around me and kill me from suffocation.
Riddikulus: That snake would turn into a kitten playing with yarn
Amortentia: I would have to say fresh cut grass, the smell before clouds bring rain, Winter; I love it when it snows, and Strawberries; yum
Mirror of Erised: It would probably show me that I’m happily married to a man who loves me with lots of sons chasing the only daughter around.
 Watch the Butterflies. Am I done now? You need any other info for your “Interview

Marauders' Role Play Character Application
NAME & AGE
First: Akira
Middle: Sage
Last: Carlisle
Origin of Name: "Akira" means "bright". "Sage" means "wisdom". The surname "Carlisle" means "life".
Nickname: (If applicable and - if so - who calls you it?) Kira (everyone calls me Kira, because "Akira" apparently takes too long to say....). Also known as "Firepaw", because her Patronus takes on the form of a cougar with red paws.
Age: 18
Birth date: 1st of August, 1960
Zodiac: Leo
IDENTITY & APPEARANCE
Gender: Female
Height: approximately 5 feet 8-and-a-half inches tall (and gets teased for it....)
Weight: 116 pounds
Body Type: thin, but athletic
Hair: Dark red
Eye Color: Bright blue
Ethnicity: British
Handicaps/Disabilities: She has what Muggle physicians call "Asperger's Syndrome", meaning that she has high-functioning autism. She's extremely intelligent, but painfully shy, almost to the point of not wanting to speak to people. It's sort of a blessing/curse type thing. She gets good grades, but her social life isn't something to brag about.
Special Abilities: (Parselmouth, animagus, etcetera) She is exceptionally intelligent, and she can cast a Patronus very well. She's also very intuitive, meaning that she has a good sense of knowing if something's good or bad, or if a person is trustworthy or not, etc.....
Other Distinguishing Features: She talks to herself sometimes, just because no one else listens. Or, at least, that's what she thinks. She always carries her sketchbook with her. She loves to draw, and has often gotten in trouble in History of Magic for drawing instead of taking notes (though it's a wonder that Professor Binns even notices....).
Example of Mode of Dress - *note - her eyes are blue, not brown.*
Mode of Dress: Mainly, she just wears blue jeans and T-shirts, although, sometimes she wears a denim messenger-boy cap that her dorm mates are fond of stealing to see her reaction (she has a pretty bad temper when provoked).
FAMILY (May include just names or opinions of relatives.)
Mother: Annabella Shepherd
Father: Benjamin Carlisle
Siblings: no siblings
Notable Extended Family: Well, her great-grandfather was a rather adventurous wizard who travelled all over the world searching for unusual plants and animals. He was, however, rather eccentric. It was he, in fact, who came up with the idea that there must be some strange creature that inhabits mistletoe and causes the chemical reaction that occurs when a man and a woman meet underneath aforementioned mistletoe (i.e., nargles). The family doesn't talk much about him. Her father takes great pride in being able to trace his family roots all the way back to the medieval era and suspects (though he is still researching it) that he is a direct descendent of Merlin. Whenever this is mentioned in conversation, her mother simply shakes her head and mutters, "Yeah, and my grandmother was the Lady of the Lake....". Kira suspects that her family is just, well, slightly insane....
Blood Status: Pureblood
PLACES
Birthplace: Coventry, England

Schools Attended: Hogwarts School of Witchcraft and Wizardry
Place of Comfort: Up a tree in the Forbidden Forest! 3nodding
AFFILIATIONS
House in School: Ravenclaw
Occupation: (student, professor, auror, etc.) After being a student, she is now an "undercover" auror, i.e., something of a spy.
Hobbies/Likes: Reading, drawing, writing, Quidditch, solving riddles, playing the piano (there's always one in the Room of Requirement whee ), and climbing trees, of course.
Pet Peeves/Dislikes: Getting bad grades, people who are generally prats or gits or just enjoy insulting people for fun, animal abusers, and the dorm mates that steal her hat.
Clubs: (Quidditch, Gobstones, etcetera) Ravenclaw Quidditch Team.
Special Recognition: (Quidditch Captain, Prefect, etc.) Ravenclaw Chaser.
RELATIONSHIPS
Sexual Orientation: Straight. Hopelessly romantic straight.
Previous Partner(s): no previous partners
Current Partner/Love Interest: has a crush on two boys who would never get along - Severus Snape and Sirius Black. For awhile, she decides to just give up the romance bit and be friends with both of them, but she simply can't stop thinking about Sirius.
Pets: A barn owl named Tisket.
Best Friend: She considers all of her friends to be her best friends.
Friends: She has a wide variety of friends. She gets along well with Sapphire McGonagall, Remus Lupin, Sirius Black, James Potter (to a certain extent), Rubeus Hagrid (he can be considered a friend, right?), and Severus Snape.
Acquaintances: Peter Pettigrew, Emmaline Vance, and some other people who she doesn't speak to often, but is polite to them.
Rival/Enemy: Bellatrix Black and Lucius Malfoy
Reputation: She is seen by others as a somewhat shy bookworm who can get rather fiery-tempered when provoked.
DISPOSITION
Personality - positive characteristics: She's a loyal friend, kind, caring, loving, intelligent, brave, a good listener, and sticks up for her friends.
Personality - negative characteristics: She has a bad temper, is very shy, is easily angered, and tends to be slightly unladylike in some instances (though she isn't sure if that's always a bad thing).
Intelligence: (best and worst subjects in school, etc.) Her best subject is Transfiguration, though she's also good at Charms. Her worst subject is Herbology. She can't make anything grow to save her life. (And why, oh, why did she get those pink fluffy earmuffs during the Mandrake study?!).
Behavior: Very much like her personality, she is rather eccentric, but not in a bad way.
Habits: She tends to wear two different socks on each foot on the days of exams and Quidditch matches. She says it's for luck, and it hasn't failed her yet.
Speech/Accent/Voice: British, but not a heavy accent.
Strengths: She can cast almost any spell, she's a quick learner, and she doesn't back down when confronted.
Weaknesses/Insecurities: She gets rather bored in History of Magic classes. She always reads ahead in the book, so, when Professor Binns lectures on the subject, she already knows about it, and tends to either draw on her parchment or sleep the whole class.
BACKSTORY
[Narrate your own piece here. Full sentences please.]
Well, my family was never wealthy, but Mum and Dad managed to care for me somehow, despite the fact that I was always headstrong and stubborn. Dad had the brilliant idea of putting my frustrations to a task instead of simply letting my bad temper show: he taught me how to play the piano. It still helps whenever I'm feeling angry to bang out some discordant melody, though I'm not sure Mum ever liked it much. Mum had a beautiful garden, but, unfortunately, I did not inherit her gardening skills. Dad works at the Ministry of Magic in the Department of Magical Creatures. He's always telling me interesting things that happen to him at work, like the time he nearly had his hand bit off by a Grindylow. Fortunately, the tank holding it slipped, and the creature managed to merely take off the tip of one of his fingers. It was a mess to clean up though. I would like to become a member of the Order of the Phoenix, eventually. I'm incredibly angered by recent lies that Voldemort has been spreading about Muggleborns and Half-bloods. Some of my best friends are Muggleborns and Half-Bloods. And no one insults my friends. No one.
MAGICAL ME
Wand: willow, Unicorn hair, twelve inches - good for long-distance charms and hexes.
Memory caused by Dementors: I nearly died of a bad case of pneumonia when I was ten years old. I saw my parents crying, because they were afraid I would die. That was the main thing that scared me, seeing them cry, because I didn't want them to hurt because of me.
Memory used for Patronus: The time that Sirius came and talked to me, trying to comfort me after Bellatrix called me a Blood-Traitor for having Muggleborn friends and tried to hex me. Sirius said he had never seen Bellatrix so horrified as when I used the Expelliarmus spell to disarm her and cast a counter-hex that caused her to have the worst case of acne in her life. Then he hugged me and told me that I was one of the best people he knew.
Form of Patronus: A large wild cat.
Boggart: A giant exam parchment with a "T" on it.
Riddikulus: The letter "T" on the parchment turns into a drawing of an actual cup of tea. The professor whose exam it was drinks the cup of tea, and the exam parchment curls up and turns into a purring cougar, fast asleep.
Amortentia: Classical music, roses, and the smell of the air after the rain.
Mirror of Erised: Sirius Black and I, together, at sunset, with no one else around..... whee

My parents say that I’ve never been able to, and no spell that healers have tried works. And I have a very violent temper. Special Abilities: well, I cast a spell once, having stolen my mothers wand that made me telepathic. Weird, no? But it has limits. It's very tiring to use, and the closer emotionally I am to someone, the easier it is. It's sort of confusing. Even for me, sometimes. Other Distinguishing Features: I have a tattoo of a pair of wings on my back, does that count? Mode of Dress: Naturally, at school I ware the school’s uniform. However, I thought that the robes were too dull, so I gave them some decoration. Designs, patterns, the usual. At home, I ware much more colorful robes, and they have much more decoration. I design most of them myself. FAMILYMother: Adalina Remaro Father: Erec Remaro Adoptive/Step Parents: Don’t insult me Siblings: Little sister, Rose Arabella Ramara, and my twin brother, Aaron Dominic Remaro.

Acquaintances: Ravenclaw, I guess. Rival/Enemy: Anyone who annoys me past my limited patience. Other Non-Family Relationships: hm…….Midnight. That’s my tiger. Reputation: Oh, I don’t know….I suppose they think I’m withdrawn, most likely snobby….I don’t go out of my way to tell people I’m mute…who’d want the sympathy…Show offish, for not saying a word, even when performing spells that everyone else speaks for…oh well. DISPOSITION Personality - positive characteristics: Loyalty to those I care about, and I’m not nasty to people.

(Sidenote: I’m very good at divination, because I’m telepathic, but I don’t like it much.) Behavior: Withdrawn, I do not tease people, and rarely make a huge effort to join people’s groups. I prefer to sit and listen to them. I have violent tendencies at time, and all of my traveling has taught me how to fight physically, like, with a sword and all that. Hey, Gryffindor did it too, so you can’t say I’m a complete freak. Habits: I go very still when anxious or upset. I don’t blink much, which make me seem like I stare at everyone. Sometimes I am staring, but not always. Speech/Accent/Voice: What part of MUTE have you not understood? However, my mental (telepathic) voice is a light soprano, with a Italian/French accent, but there are traces of more thrown in, because I traveled a lot. Strengths: Strong spellcaster, even IF I can’t speak. Weaknesses/Insecurities: That people will think that I’m a freak because I can’t speak, but communicate through minds. BACKSTORY I was born the younger one of the ‘Terrible Twins’, as the family knew us, in Venice. I love the city; I’ve been there many times….anyways. When my mother discovered that she was pregnant again, she left Venice and moved us all to Rome, where we stayed for three years. Then Rose got to the age where she got adventurous, and Mother couldn’t handle three crazy children. She sent Aaron to stay with Father, and learn to take over the estates, and me to go with my traveling aunt, to help me feel more confident. It didn’t work, but I did love it. Aaron sent me every bit of information that Father was teaching him, because he knew that when Father and Mother passed on, we’d split the work. I haven’t seen my twin in ages, nor have I seen any of my other family. But one day my aunt dropped me off at our family’s estate in England, and everyone was happy to see me….too happy. I remembered that We should be going to Hogwarts, but what good is a witch without a voice? I couldn’t do the spells, could I? But I got an acceptance: apparently you can cast spells without speaking. It’s very difficult, however, and normally you don’t even try until after O.W.L.’s, but it was my only chance. I took it, and now I’m going to Hogwarts. MAGICAL ME Wand: 11”, willow, tail feather of a Phoenix. Memory caused by Dementors: An illness I saw in South America killing my family one my one.
