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!) '''Svetlana is a cold-hearted young woman. She has power, and she knows how to use it, and believe me, she is really quite not someone to mess with. She is dangerously ambitious, and knows how to play games to get what she wants. Svetlana rarely seems to display emotion, something that causes trouble for those less... observant. She's intelligent and rarely speaks in an emotional tone, bringing a cold and distant tone to all conversations.

Svetlana carries herself with a grace that's unseen, and has a dangerously wide group of magic to call upon. She plays games with people, and loves making them feel so useless. She's cunning, dangerously so, but when needed, she can be one of the loyalest people you'll ever meet... However, there's one issue about that. If her loyalty is given out, then she will demand something in return... It's dangerous how her mind works.'''

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!) '''Svetlana Anastasia Zima entered the world to a powerful Russian couple on December 30, 2016. She was their first child, and in the eyes of the Russian government, she would inherit when her parents died. The Zima family was known as being extremely powerful, and if anyone says different, they can easily make them disappear. Svetlana grew up in a world of powerplaying and social backstabbing, becoming surprisingly efficient at both by a young age... But all that changed when her magic manifested. One more thing about the Zima family: They were pureblood magicals, and Svetlana's magic manifestation brought a huge celebration, which was a pretty big deal in the higher-ranking russian magicals. Her first sign of magic wasn't anything special, but it was big enough to prompt a party, which meant that she accidentally dumped a bucket of cleaning water over another servant that wouldn't leave her alone... That also prompted them to fire the servant.

Svetlana entered Koldovstoretz, the local school of magic. Her first few years were uneventful, but the summer before third year was when everything changed. During those months, another girl appeared: Tatyana Romonova, a girl that no one knew anything about. Svetlana helped Tatyana get used to life in Russia, and even got her involved with the darker side of Russian-school-politics. Sadly, she vanished soon afterwards, and Svetlana never heard from her friend again. Her fifth and sixth years passed normally, moving into a more conniving young woman and one that had her reputation precede her.

Her seventh year brought surprises. She applied, and got accepted for the school-transfer program open for only the best of the best. Svetlana was assigned to Hogwarts, and soon is heading there for her remaining year. However, she received a message from Tessa, the girl she remembered as Tatyana, and now, she cannot wait for her visit to Castle Hogwarts.'''

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! Modeled By Sophie Turner.

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!) Pure-blood, her family.

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!) None.

6) What year is your character in? Seventh.
