The Open-Ended Questions

A. Please answer the following questions as elaborately as possible. (Remember, this part is only a requirement for your third to fifteenth character! However, if you want to have more input on where you character is sorted, then please answer #6!)

1) What would you consider to be your character's strengths, and your character's weaknesses? Elaborate on your answer. She's smart, and rather sneaky, knowing the best ways to plan out ideas to get her results, no matter what this result could be. However, a drawback to this is that she often overworks herself, and often gets fatigued. Another of her weaknesses is she's not very trustful of others, a result of her upbringing, which means she often goes at challenges alone. To cover up her aloneness, she is often sarcastic to others, which only alienates people further away.

2) What goals and objectives has your character set out in their life? Is it to be successful and rich? Is it to find happiness? Why? Her priority in life is to be successful, but not necessarily rich. It depends on your ideas of success. For her, working and doing something she enjoys and improving it is a success. Her secondary objective for now is to make friends, but due to her abovementioned weaknesses, she struggles heavily with this.

3) What's their ideal way of spending a free day? Why so? She'd most likely spend it drawing. She's always had a talent for it, along with photograph taking. She'd also do this as she can do it alone, which helps as she's alone most of the time.

4) If your character could only keep 5 possessions, what would they be? Why?
 * 1) Her wand, because magic can be rather useful in many situations.
 * 2) Her camera, because she loves taking pictures of the world.
 * 3) Her art-set, for the same reasons as number two, she loves to draw the world around her.
 * 4) Her PS2, as though it doesn't work at hogwarts, at home, it's a way to relax and remember her childhood.
 * 5) Her MP3, as while slightly out of date with todays phones, holds a lot of her favourite music tracks that help her to relax while drawing.

5) What one thing would your character change about the wizarding society? Why? Research more into the ocean and its society, find out more about mermaids and the like, because many of these species are sentient, thoguh due to their lack of breathing on land, can't talk to us.

6) What house does your character want to be in? What house does your character not want to be in? Why? She'd prefer a house such as Slytherin, as a result of her upbringing and personality, but wouldn't be against any house, aside from Hufflepuff, as her parents raised her to feel Hufflepuff was the idiotical house, with no extra desirable traits. No hate to hufflepuffs, love y'all

The Character's Background

1) Give a description of your character's personality. Are you noble or sneaky? Arrogant or Humble? Anything about your character that might help the Sorting Hat decide. (Don't worry, you can copy this onto your character page later!) (Remember, personality must be at least one paragraph long for the first two characters, two paragraphs long for the third to eighth characters, and three paragraphs long for the ninth to fifteenth!) Victoria is a smart girl for her age due to her upbringing, studying often and for long hours in her family's library. However, this is also a negative for her, as she finds herself overworked often by early mornings and late nights. She's resourceful and cunning, able to manipulate events to come to the outcome she wants. She's rather kind to those who get to know her, but due to her struggling to trust others, masks with a veil of sarcasm, often making fun of others, whether she means it or not, which leaves her rather alone most of the time, so she seldom opens herself to others.

2) Write about the history of your character. How did they grow up? Is there an incident that made them the way they are? etc. (Again, you can copy this onto your character page later!) (Remember, history must at least be two paragraphs long for the first two characters, three paragraphs long for the third to eighth character, and four paragraphs long for the ninth to fifteenth character!)

Victoria, or 'Vic', though sometimes referred to as 'Vika' (Pronounced Vee-ka), but only to her close friends, was born on April 19th to her parents, Ashley Faye (nee Haywood) and Hayden Faye. Ashley was a Ravenclaw, and Hayden was a Slytherin. While Hayden was a pure-blood, Ashley was a half-blood, and the Faye Pure-Blood line ended when he married her, though he didn't care, against tradition, he chose his wife over centuries of tradition. Victoria's bias to Hufflepuffs came from her mother, surprisingly, instead of her father. Her mother had a estranged relation with her own mother, who was a famous potion maker. Their relationship collapsed so much that when Ashley married Hayden in Paris, where she'd grown up, they both agreed to move to England. Ashley hasn't seen her mother since the wedding.

Victoria has shown magical prowess since she was a toddler, to the ire of her parents, who struggled to keep her under control, especially when a toddler was throwing stuff with magic. Luckily, she calmed this when she was older, and able to understand underage wizards shouldn't do magic outside school. She'd been raised at home, not going to a muggle school, as her parents agreed it wasn't for the best. One of her most defining memories occurred when her father took her to Wigmore Hall in London when she was eight, where she discovered her adoration of music, particularly classical. For her Christmas present that year, she received an MP3, to the annoyance of her mother, who hoped her father would've gotten her something more up to date, though her mother didn't blame him, he was a pure-blood after all. In any case, Victoria has cherished the device since that day.

Victoria always knew she'd go to Hogwarts, as her mother didn't want any chance of her meeting her grandmother if she went to Beauxbatons in France, where Ashley had gone in her youth. Nevertheless when she received the  letter, she was overjoyed and almost immediately went off to Diagon Alley with her father to pick out her equipment she'd need for her first year at the school.

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! She, as shown by the picture, has blonde hair and blue eyes, and takes after her mother in a lot of aspects, aside from her eyes, which she gets from her father.

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 Harry Potter characters!) She's a Half-Blood, as a result of her mother, as her father was a Pure-Blood. She has reason to believe, though her mother keeps quiet about her maiden name of Haywood, that she is related to the famous wizard, Penny Haywood. (OOC/Alt Note: I've also considered having her related instead as the granddaughter of Penny's unseen younger sister Beatrice, but this is still undecided, thoguh will play a major part in her future) 

5) Does your character have any special magical abilities? Or special abilities in general (photographic memory, etc.)? Is he or she of a different magical race, such as Veela, Vampire, Werewolf or the like? Part or half of that magical race counts! (Remember, you cannot have a character with special abilities/of a different magical race as one of your first two characters!) No special abilities here.

6) What year is your character in? 1st Year

OOC Questions

C. These do not affect what house you're sorted to, but everybody must answer them!

1) Is this your first character?


 * A. This is my first character.


 * B. No, this is not my first character.
 * See addendum at 2.

2) If your answer to the previous question is B, how many characters do you have? How many of them are "exotic" (of a different magical race/have a special ability)? Right, so. I used to have an account long ago called User:Lorddimertelo2213 and while I never really was any good at rp, enjoyed it and had about Three characters (Alex, Ashley and Alexander). However I retired, and in 2017 my brother wanted to try out rp, so I let him use my account, but he got bored and stopped, but had changed the password in that time, as he lives in the Americas (I moved to the UK) I don't speak often, so made this account. It's up to you if you want to count these previous ones or not, I don't mind as it doesn't effect my character being made. None of them were exotic though.
