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.

One of Mila's defining traits is her independence, which is a huge strength. She doesn't need her parent's approval. But, that does not mean she does not want it. Another defining trait is her slight disdain towards her father and brother specifically. Family masy be important, but that doesn't mean they're always perfect.

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?

Mila's family is known for their legacy -- Their careers in Quidditch and the general expectancy of everybody to follow in the last generation's footsteps. Mila wants to break away from that. She doesn't want to be a quidditch player.

3) What's their ideal way of spending a free day? Why so?

If she has her gameboy she's 100% playing pokemon.

4) If your character could only keep 5 possessions, what would they be? Why?

Her gameboy, her console, her controller, a necklace Daria gave her, and a hairtie.

5) What one thing would your character change about the wizarding society? Why?

Why can't she play video games in school?

6) What house does your character want to be in? What house does your character not want to be in? Why?

None in particular. She finds Ravenclaws to be insufferable.

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!)

Mila likes her independence, and her solitude. This, of course, does not mean she is subsequently not a very loud and outspoken individual. She loves getting her way, but in her family life, she knows that's only possible because her parents never really payed attention to her anyways.She had to be loud to get their attention. Overall, everyone sort of went on with their lives. She was always in the background.

This also means Mila does not need much attention. She is very capable of keeping herself company, and everyone is okay with that. Because of this, she's also not very used to getting attention. Mila thinks of people as somewhat untrustworthy until they prove otherwise. The girl is, very much, a loner. After all, she's a Schmidt, and everybody always wants something from her.

Mila has trouble keeping up with her family's media life, as well. She hates being photographed, or even complimented. She knows she's pretty, of course. Nobody needs to confirm that to her. If someone mentions it, she'll just say she knows that already. More thanb that, along with not needing attention and liking her solitude, she hates being photographed and followed. partly because of this, and because Daria is her favorite parent, Mila really doesn't go out much, especially with her father.

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!)

Mila Daria Schmidt is the daughter of Tustshill Tornadoes manager Arthur Schmidt and Daria Schmidt, previously Chakarova, the manager for the Harpies. Both being Quidditch legends. Mila, not so much. In fact, it seems Adrian, her elder brother of a year, had gotten all of the talent. Mila gained nothing of the sort. In fact, from a young age, she threw the broom to the side to pick up a gamer pad.

Mila was not only ever good at flying (and kind of has a fear of height anyways), but she also never liked it. From the tender age of five, she spent most of her time with video games. Mila found the one thing she has a talent and love for. In fact, when she turned 8, the best thing happened. She was selected to partake in a gaming competition! Mila was SO excited, and as she ran to tell her parents, she didn't notice things starting to levitate and drop behind her. Not until she got to her father, told him the news, and he said he can't allow her to go. That's when everything around her kind of dropped. (She broke a very important vase.) Arthur and Mila got into an argument that somehow ended with Mila burning part of his hair off. She was sent to her room, but not without a sense of pride to go along with the anger and disappointment. She was a witch..

When it finally came time for her brother, Adrian, to be sent to a school, after a lot of debating, the parents decided to send him to Durmstrang for a while. When Mila followed, it was apparent that she really did not like this school. They didn't let her have her games. Still, she lived with it for a while, though she outright refused to try for the Quidditch team. Then, after a bunch of her cousins began spotting back up in England, Arthur and Daria decided to move the family there. Mila had moved to England just the summer before her third year.

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!

Model is Odeya Rush

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!)

Pureblood

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

6) What year is your character in?

I'm starting her in her third term

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.

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)?
