[/center][/font]They say APPEARANCE is everything
PLAYED BY ;; "People say I look like that girl... oh what's her name? Susan Coffey... I think? Yeah, that's it. I don't see it though. She's a lot prettier than I am."
HAIR ;; "Well my natural color is almost like a caramel color, but I haven't seen that color in years. Usually my hair is some shade of red with maybe a little purple thrown in. It's pretty thick and long. I cut it short once. And I will never do that again."
EYES ;; "They're a weird grey blueish green color. Its a really light color. I like my eyes the best, well right after my hair. They're a unique color."
HEIGHT ;; "I'm not short but I'm definitely not tall. I think I was 5'4" last time I checked."
WEIGHT ;; "Um... I don't know. 115 pounds maybe?"
BODY TYPE ;; "I'm pretty slender all the way around. I have little curves that make me look feminine but they're nothing to get excited about. My ears are pierced twice in each lobe and once in my left cartilage. And... I have a tattoo of a blue and green swallow on my right hip... but I don't show it to anyone."
CLOTHING STYLE ;; "I like to wear whatever sounds good at the time just as long as I'm comfortable. I guess I like simple clothing. Not a lot of bright colors or sequins or anything. I also don't like to show off a lot of skin. I like simple dresses, jeans, simple t-shirts or blouses. Oh, and I like flannel shirts. Not the old thick kind, but the new girlie ones they make. I like wearing flats and sneakers but sometimes I'll wear heels if the occasion is right."

[/size][/font]But your PERSONALITY is who you are
OVERVIEW ;; "So there really isn't a lot to say about me. I'm quiet, almost to a fault I guess. Being quiet has good and bad parts. Groups of people never really focus on me, which is okay because I hate being the center of attnetion. It makes me really nervous and sometimes I stutter a bit trying to quickly find the words to say so people go back to ignoring me.
And I prefer to be ignored. It is better than someone being mean to me. People think I'm weird since I don't talk a lot and some make snarky comments about it. But as I hate confrontation, I won't say anything back. My friends will stick up for me, but I don't really like them too.
I like to imagine that the world is generally a good place as delusional as that might sound. I see good in people before the bad and am never one to judge others. My opinion of you will come from how you treat me and those I care about rather than others say about you. But a good opinion won't cause me to trust you. I don't trust anyone very easily. It takes some time to earn my trust.
I see myself as a nice person. I love positive energy. While I'm not outgoingly friendly, I'm nice and smile and tend to be polite to everyone. I'm very honest with people I'm close to and I try to be helpful where I can. But I get nervous kind of easily sometimes and it is better for me just to drift off to the background.
The world is a beautiful place. I honestly believe that. I see beauty and fascinating things no matter where I am. Thats why I paint and take so many pictures. I want people to see the world as beautiful as I see it."
LIKES ;;
- "I love being outside. I like the feel of grass beneath my feet and sun on my skin. I could sit outside doing absolutely nothing and be completely happy."
- "My favorite seasons are spring and fall. The temperatures are perfect. And they represent the whole 'rebirth and dying' cycle which is kind of fascinating in a way. It's also the prettiest times of the year. Perfect for photography."
- "Which leads into another thing I love. I adore art, especially making art. I love painting and taking pictures. I don't know if I'm any good at either but I don't think it would be possibly for me to stop. I always have a camera and a sketch pad that way I can turn the sketch into a painting later. I love going to art museums, although after Hogwarts and all the moving paintings, muggle museums are kind of boring."
- "Other things I always have with me are quill, ink, and a journal. I write down anything and everything. Things I see or think, what I dream about, poems or stories I come up with. I write it all down. I have journals and journal full of writings and doodles. I used to write in pen but switched to ink and quill when I came to Hogwarts. I like a quill much better. I has this old feel to it, almost like I'm back in the old centuries writing long hand letters and thoughts in an old journal."
- "I like small animals, well not all small animals. Just the cute furry kind. Birds, rabbits, cats. I wish I had a cat, but mom is allergic to them."
- "I like my friends. I don't have very many cause I don't talk a lot, but I love the ones I do have. I'd do anything for them."
- "I prefer quiet. I spend a lot of time in the library or outside on my own. I don't know why I like it so much. Its just familiar. Quietness is the same no matter where you are, and I find comfort in that."
- "In contradiction to the previous answer, I enjoy being in a crowd. There something about being surrounded by people that I just like. I don't generally talk in the crowd but I like being there."
- "And part of being in a crowd is people watching. I like to watch people go on about their lives. Being quiet and in the background, I usually get a good chance to see how people act and interact with each other. Usually I write down anything interesting I see."
- "I prefer French language and culture to those of British. Not that I look down on the British, but I grew up mainly in France with a French mother. I like to speak French when I can and I usually write in French, apart from assignments of course."
DISLIKES ;;
- "I hate winter and summer. It's far to cold in the winter, although there are interesting pictures to take. And summer is just to hot for my liking."
- "Large animals and dogs scare me. When Hagrid did the Hippogriff lesson, I stayed as far to the back as possible. I don't like the idea of something unpredictable being so much bigger than I am."
- "I don't like being around loud noises. I'll avoid them if possible. I definitely don't go to Quidditch matches..."
- "I don't like mean or rude people. I know a lot of people think I'm weird cause I barely talk, am always by myself and am constantly writing or taking pictures. And I've heard mean remarks. And I'm never gonna say anything against them but I don't like it or them."
- "As weird as it sounds I don't like chocolate. Ever since I was little, I've thought it was disgusting. And it just not candy bars. I don't like anything chocolate flavored. It's just gross."
- "I'm terrible with confrontation. I hate it. I'll avoid it if ever possible. If you have something to say to me, say it, I won't ever say anything back. And if for whatever reason I'm getting yelled at or told off by anyone, I usually just avoid eye contact and think about other things. Just so I'm not focusing on the fact that there's someone scolding me."
- "Soppy love stories. Movies, books or whatever. I mean who honestly think life happens that way? You can't just look at someone and know they're the one for you. That's absurd. Life doesn't work out that way. It's not always rainbows and butterflies."
STRENGTHS ;;
- "I don't judge people without knowing them. I'll accept someone for who they are rather than what they look like, what they wear or what house they're in."
- "I like to think I'm rather passionate about some things. If I love something, it shows and I don't ever like to let it go. And there are things I love doing that I would never give up."
- "I'm a very good listener seeing as I don't talk very much. I love listening to people talk about anything and everything. I feel like I'm the one my friends and sometimes random people go to just let everything out. And I don't mind. I guess people like knowing I'm not going to run off and tell everyone their problems."
- "I get good marks in school. I always have. I'm a quick learner and I loving learning new things."
FLAWS ;;
- "I don't stand up for myself, ever. Even if I don't like what you're saying about me or my friends, I won't even mumble a word. Sometimes my friends will stick up for me but I'd rather they not. I don't want it to start a fight."
- "I'm quiet, but everyone knows that. I'm not sure if it is a flaw or not. Some people would see it as one, but I'm okay with it."
- "Trusting people doesn't come easy to me. I've had so many people walk in and out of my life that it takes a lot of time to earn my trust. But once I trust you, you know it."
- "I don't really think highly of myself. I'm not particularly amazing at anything, well except for maybe painting and I don't see myself as that pretty. Thes best thing about me is my kindness and how beautiful I see the world."
HABITS ;;
- "Biting my my bottom lip while I'm writing. My mother use to point it out to me. I don't even know I do it though. I just happens."
- "I'm constantly writing or sketching and doodling. I mean like ninety percent of the time I'm doing one of those things."
- "When I'm really nervous or uncomfortable about a situtation, I twist strands of my hair. Usually on the right side."
AMBITIONS ;;
- "To live and work in the wizarding world after Hogwarts so I can get as far away from my mother as possible."
- "Honestly, I just really want to be happy."
FEARS ;;
- "Honestly, I'm terrified of balloons. Weird right? I think its the popping aspect more than anything. I just know I can't be around them."
- "And I can't believe I'm telling you this but I'm, like, desperately afraid of falling in love. After seeing everything my mother has gone through, even if she does it to herself, I don't ever want to hurt like that."
SECRETS ;;
- "Even though I like to say I don't believe in love, I actually do. It's just easier to say I don't. I can't get hurt that way."
- "I've tried finding out who my father is but have given up. I think it would hurt my mom if she knew. And I almost don't want to know. I think knowing would ruin the image of him I've dreamed up."
[/center][/size]And you can't leave your HISTORY in the past
FATHER ;; "The only thing I know my father by is Danny. I don't know a last name or how old he is or what he does.Oh and he's British"
MOTHER ;; "My mom's name is Margret Fitzroy, but everyone calls her Maggie. She's 34 and she does whatever work she can in whatever city we end up in."
SIBLINGS ;; "I have a younger brother named Carson Fitzroy. He's 14 and a muggle."
HOMETOWN ;; "I was born in Troyes, France."
BIRTHDATE ;; "May 21st."
HISTORY ;; "There isn’t a some wonderful fairytale about how my parents met. Mom won’t talk about what really happened all those years ago. The only things I know are the bits and pieces I've managed to collect over the years. My mom was still in high school and my father was just a little older. One night mom went to a club where she met a man I've only come to know Danny. Danny was a singer and his band was performing that night. Mom and Danny met shortly after the show and spent the night together. ‘He had the whole rock star thing going on,’ mom would say. However the two never saw each other after that night. When mom told Danny she was pregnant, he made no effort to be a part of Maggie’s life or the my life. The last time Maggie saw Danny she was 4 months pregnant.
Mom and I lived in my grandparent’s house in Troyes for a year. During that year Maggie got a job in a little diner where she met a man that would soon become her first love. His name was Brock. Brock was a mechanic that ate lunch in the diner every week day in hopes to get the attention of mom. They dated happily for a year. Mom said Borck eventually love me too. And the three of us were happy for a while. Three days before my second birthday mom and Brock learned that mom was pregnant.... again.
At first Brock didn’t want Maggie to have the baby. He knew he wasn’t ready to be a dad, not a real dad. But Maggie refused his request. Brock, at a loss, knew he would have to try his best to help Maggie and be a father to baby Carson. It proved to be more then the mechanic could handle. Carson was six months old when Brock packed his things and left mom, Carson and I behind. Mom was heartbroken by her love’s sudden departure and found herself in a need for change. She, too, packed her things and the family of three moved to Rennes to start their new adventure.
Mom used this fresh start to focus on Carson and I. They lived in Rennes for five years before mom met another man. The two of them dated for six months before he called it quits. Mom, once again heartbroken, packed up everything up and left Rennes to start another what she called "adventure". Then we ended up in London of all places, where I started grade school. And mom began to feel hopeless when it came to love. She wondered if she’d ever find true love. And because she was so despreate, we didn't stay in London long. Mom took is on another one of her adventures.
In the next seven years we moved, in total, six times in France and England. Each move was brought on by a “brokenhearted” mom. Sometimeswe were only in one place for a couple months. Sometimes it was a little over a year. I didn’t like leaving her friends but for a while, when I was little, I liked our little adventures. I saw a lot more places than most kids see. Carson and I bounced between home school and public school making it difficult to make friends and really get an steady education. In some schools they were ahead and others they were behind.
We were living in a small town in England, I think, when I got my letter to Hogwarts. How they knew where to find me after all the moving we did was amazing. Mom was confused at first. There were no magical bloodline in her family. 'Must have come from your father,' she said sounding bitter. She wasn't going to let me go at first but I pleaded enough that she eventually gave in.
My first year at Hogwarts was rough. I hated not knowing what my mom was up to at home and I wasn't very good at making friends anymore. But I managed to make a few. And things got much better. It was nice knowing that the castle wasn't going anywhere.
But mom moved all are stuff while I was at school. She didn't tell me until she picked me up at the train station. I was starting to get tired of her mother’s adventures. They are just mom's way of running away. But she, of course, didn’t realize the effect this constant movement had on either Carson or I. I stopped unpacking mythings when they moved into a new house. What was the point, right? We’d be off on another adventure in a few months anyway and if it was already packed Mom didn't have to go through the trouble of doing it while I was at Hogwarts. She started having troubles trusting people. Except for Carson and mom, everyone she had ever known walked out of her life.
Each year I left on the train to Hogwarts and I never knew if I'd be going back to the same place. I don't really have a home, unless you count Hogwarts. I mainly keep tp myself at school. I have a few close friends but not very many. I get good grades and don't cause trouble. I just want to do good in school so I can work in the wizarding world and leave behind the drama that is my mom's life."[/blockquote][/size][/font]
