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!) Just like her name implies, Serena is serene. She's a kind, gentle soul who gets excited too easily and is a huge dork. She smiles and laughs when she messes up something and sometimes seems dumb enough to do random things. People can't help falling for her, she's seriously too cute sometimes. From the way she tugs on your arm and fusses about you to the way she puffs out her cheeks when she's annoyed af. and that's all the time. '''Her kindness is legendary. She's known to take people from younger years under her wing. She's helpful, and likes to help out people no matter the cost. She also enjoys learning about everything and anything and her curiosity is insatiable. She likes pretty things and is highly sensitive at times, being known to cry at a drop of a hat. It's chilling, really, when you compare her to the same person she is when she's well, betrayed or bored.''' '''However, as much as that may be part of her personality, she also has a darker side to her. Serena is highly confident and unashamed of what she does. She shows no remorse in what she does and often finds logical reasons to dispel any complaints. Serena is smart and clever. She's read up on anything and everything, and although the cute ribbons in her hair may make you think otherwise, but you can't underestimate her, especially when she can easily have you visiting paradise soon.'''

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!) tokugawa kazuya and echizen momoko met as sixth years in mahoutokoro. despite living at the same school for the past six years, they had, apparently, never laid eyes on one another. but that moment in the library where momoko was getting a book in the library and she glanced at the boy next to her, she fell in love - and it happened he did as well. '''they got married four years later. kazuya used to tell serena that it was the happiest day of her mother's life, next to both of her children being born, of course. they settled in york, england, due to momoko's job, and it was there that their two children was born: daughters serena alice atsuko and crystal maria airi.''' '''serena was as happy and serene as her name suggested. she was noted among her neighborhood for her smile and general liveliness, but as she grew, some of her energy left and in it was replaced a warm and soft personality. she was responsible and obedient child, and clung to her father growing up, who was the nicest person in the world. they had a shared love of piano, and it was her father who taught her all the familiar notes she would come to know. therefore, her world took a dark turn when her father die when she was aged just nine.''' '''life was hard after that. not only did her mother lose her loving husband, the girls were forced to grow up without their beloved father. it was then that the family realized that kazuya did not have the best fiancial record. the tokugawa family never did approve of momoko, only tolerating her presence because of the children, so gave little to no financial support to her. it was then, at the treatment of her mother, that serena began to change.''' '''hogwarts was the next big chapter of her life. clad in secondhand robes and a bright smile, she came to school awestruck by everything around her. serena wasted no time in getting friends and acquainting herself with everyone who wanted to be acquainted by her. her dorkiness and sweet personality won over many hearts, and it helped that in class, she always seem to know what was going on. she loved to read and it was rumoured that she's read all the books in the library, and had no problem even getting into the restricted section. hogwarts made her flourish in ways she could never imagine.''' '''in the summer before her sixth year, serena and her mother decided it would be better for serena to move out. she took her first apartment in diagon alley, and spent the summer happily exploring her new surroundings and meeting new people. however, as she was out eating in a pub in london, there was someone that caught her eye. it was her father. she couldn't believe her eyes. it was really him, and she'd stalked him to make sure. the rough speaking man who had another family with him was really her father.''' 'she'd never felt so betrayed'' in her entire life. all those tears and pain and longing for her father to be alive again, just for him to have run off and made another family? well, if she couldn't have her father, neither could they. so two days later, she revealed herself to him. and well, she was the obituary in the newspaper and cut it out with a smile. she really did enjoy this, didn't she?''' 'serena doesn't know what she'll be doing after graduation, but she does'' see herself going down that path. who knows, anything can happen. and as of late, serena tokugawa has been nothing short of unpredictable.'''

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! It doesn't help for anyone that wants to catch her in the act, that Serena has a warm and caring aura. Serena has a pretty face as well, which greatly helps in avoiding suspicious. She has long dark hair with bangs, and striking light brown eyes. Serena is also quite small and skinny, which further adds to her innocent aura. She's modeled by Nana Komastu.

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!

6) What year is your character in? 7th
