The Character's Background

1) Give a description of your character's personality. It must be at least two paragraphs long, seven sentences each.

you don't need words or expressions to be loud. actions are enough. when someone steals her crayon, she snaps it and hands them half. when she wants to be alone, she waves a goodbye and wiggles out of the window. she forgets to say please and thank you and kindly pass the salt, not because she's a petulant little child, but because she never gives anyone the opportunity to call for it. while an animated speaker, she doesn't do it very much compared to the rest of her age group. one thing she does have in common with them though? sitting still. that stuff's just impossible to her. she cringes when she hears about school. how can anyone possibly stand sitting for so long without their butt hurting? if it numbs the ass, that's reason to be crass!

when her legs aren't running, her ears are. she likes listening, whether or not people know she is doesn't matter. she's fallen asleep sitting in a doorway more than once for the sake of listen to gossipy lullabies. sound fascinates her. the inflections, the intonations, the timbres, the accents, she wants all of it. sound means life, and while life isn't so welcome in the gloaming, screams mean it refuses to be kicked out of Thanksgiving dinner. people fear the night; it's strange and the unknown without the stars or the moon or a flashlight to guide you out, but that's part of the charm. rion likes it. she's never been scared of the dark, or monsters under the bed. she doesn't know what scares her yet and that's probably the scariest part of her life.

2) Write about the history of your character. How did they grow up? Is there an incident that made them the way they are? It must be at least three paragraphs long, seven sentences each.

zorion — happiness

Rion wasn't Rion. She didn't have a name, or a home, or the ability to keep her curiosity on a leash. When Mateo asked her how she had ended up in Hogsmeade, she answered with the truth. While trying to steal from people in King's Cross, she'd gotten locked up in an oversized trunk by accident. It was a wonder how she didn't suffocate after being stuck there for so long. She knew her age at least.

3) Write about your character's appearance. What do they look like? Are you planning on using a certain model for your character? If you already have a picture in mind, you can put it here!

Aroa Renau

4) Is your character a Pure-Blood, Half-Blood or Muggle-Born? Do you have any notable magical relations? (Remember, you cannot be related to important characters from the Harry Potter Universe!)

unknown

5) Does your character have any special abilities? Is he or she of a different magical race, such as Veela, Vampire, Werewolf or the like? Part or half of a magical race counts! (Remember, you cannot have a character with special abilities/of a different magical race as one of your first two characters!)

Yes

6) What year is your character in?

n/a, 7

7) The Sorting Hat has been known to take house preference into consideration. If your character could select one house they believe they are best suited for, what would it be and why?

No pref (for now)

OOC Questions

B. Whilst the first two questions will not affect the character's house (and are mandatory), the others are designed specifically to help users come up with their character's ideal job (and are optional).

1) Is this your first character?


 * A. This is my first character.


 * B. No, this is not my first character.

2) If your answer to the previous question is B, how many characters do you have? How many of them are "exotic"?

9, 2.

3) What would people who know your character well say they're really good at?

4) What do they really want to avoid in their future job/career? Do they hate working in an office? Do they hate the field?

5) Aside from family and peers, what motivates your character the most in life? What drives their passion?

6) Where does your character's weaknesses lie?

7) Wand cores and woods speak volumes about a person's character. What is your character's wand? Why does it answer to them?
