(I have created a character with the aid of easy chars and am in slytherin house, but have been told this is still necessary, so my apologies if I make reference to being in slytherin house (though I know really I shouldn't) and that the information is in first person as it was taken from the character's profile. I am also hoping to have this character passed as an Animagus. I haven't entered it below as I do not know whether or not it will be allowed. Also, a great deal of what she knows is second hand info and therefore is often the twisted truth, ergo I hope to have some massive rows with her family later. I also hope to recieve allonce to have her as a metamorphmagus as her mothers seer abilities got twisted)

1) Give a short history of your character. How did they grow up? Is there an incident that made them the way they are? etc.

I'm twenty, nearly 21, and an ex-pupil of Slytherin house. My name is Hermione Prince, Hermione Sofia Zoe Kathleen Lily Prince, in truth. I've recently left Hogwarts school of witchcraft and wizardry after having the honour of both Prefect and Head girl, as well as Slytherin seeker bestowed upon me.

I am adopted after both my parents died. Brutally murdered, more like. I still haven't got over it fully yet. I know they loved me to a degree, but far less than they loved each other or their cause. My adopted mum and dad have treated me better than my biological parents ever did. Yes, they can be strict, but they aren't cruel.

Marvolo and Emmilene [Prince]*ref2, my dead mother and father, were [both half-bloods]*ref1 and death eaters, though mum was a seer too (some days I think I got a bit of her talent because I'm great with gambling, but I doubt it highly). They took me to a meeting once. I was three. They offered me as a sacrifice for a higher position in his, I know ... Voldemort's, ranks. I was scared. I only got away because that same meeting the Order (of the Phoenix) attacked. Voldemort decided that it must have been some plot against him, and killed both of Marvolo and Emmilene. I know they offered my death in exchange for something for themselves, but they were still my parents, in one way or another.

That day I was branded with the mark of 'traitor'. It was given to me by Bellatrix Lestrange. She carved it into the flesh under my jaw with some form of magical knife. The healers eventually got rid of most of the curse, but I still have the scar and dark magic in my blood. It's ugly, but with a glamour you can't see it much at all.

Severus Snape was the one to save me. He and I only met a few times, and he never knew my family's name. It had always been a secret from him, I don't know why Voldemort didn't want us to associate. That rescue wasn't the first time he'd put his life on the line for us.

My mum and dad, I always view them as being my true parents, also adopted two other children (as they were at the time, now they're all grown up, like me). My youngest brother is Carlos Manoso, [a Cuban pure-blood]*ref5 who's four years older than me. His family abandoned him when they were forced to leave their country. He was adopted when he was eight, I'm surprised he managed to last in the country as it was as long as he did, but then again he was always a tough lad. Now he works in the ministry as an Auror and is one of the best. He also ended up with a ridiculously long name, like me. Who's ideals state that it's a great idea to give a child the name Carlos Alejandro Ricardo Roberto Estephan Manoso. Mind you, it is quite sensuous. Urh! He's me brother. Bleh!

The oldest is related to me, if only by a little whisker that is distantly by marriage. His grand-father, was seeing a muggle woman who he planned to marry. Her name was Maria Johnes. They had a child together and were engaged. Her child was named [Quintus Severus Snape]*ref6, by her request. Sadly, before the two could marry, she died from a wide-spread disease. Snape decided to get rid of the baby and so threw him out onto the street, hoping he would die. He didn't, thank God. He was taken in by a family who had seen him around. The area that both families lived in was one were questions weren't asked. They took him in and let him keep his name, a form of adoption in those days. They became his family, and when he had a child of his own with a lovely wife, he was named Quintus Severus, after his father, Lucius after his adopted father, Tobias, after his real grand-father, Romulus, as he was born at night and under the moon, Sirius, as that was the star that him mother had first spotted, and Remus after his twin that died in childbirth. Severus Lucius Tobias Romulus Sirius Remus Snape got a letter on his eleventh birthday and found out that he was a muggle-born wizard. When he went to Hogwarts and was placed in Ravenclaw, his muggle family became a target. In his fifth year, he received the news that they had been killed. All of them. That was when mum and dad adopted him. Nowadays we call him Sev more than we call him Quin, but he's his own person and not the celebrated hero that he aspired to be.

None of us had the best of starts in life but at least were happy now. Like I said, Carlos is an Auror for the ministry. He's surprising, to most at least, near the top of the ranks, and he's only 22, 23 this year. Severus, who's 27, is a notable Transfiguration and Aritmancy master. He taught Charms at Durmstrang for a year before he could start his apprenticeship. That leaves me. So, I'm about to turn twenty-one, and hope to be going back to Hogwarts next year. I will have completed an apprenticeship in Arithmancy, Transfiguration, Potions, Charms and Dark Arts (which leaves me qualified to teach Defence against if I wanted to). I don't think the time-turner department in the Ministry would like me talking about how I managed to take the apprenticeships during my school years … Anyway, I hope to teach either one of a combination of a few of my subjects as an assistant professor until a current professor wishes to retire, and I have the opportunity to take that role. My aim is to get to the post of Head of Slytherin, eventually.

So … Mum and Dad. Mum's 32 and was called Stephanie Theodora May [Malfoy]*ref3, till she married dad, that is, now she's a Black. Dad's called Ricardo Carlos Marco [Black]*ref4 and was the year above mum in Gryffindor. They managed to pair off on their prefect duties, which was lucky, for them and for those that got let of the hook for being out after curfew because mum and dad were too busy snogging to notice. They both got Head Boy and Head Girl, retrospectively of course, and then moved in together in Hogsmede while they set up their careers. Seeing as they are both half-bloods, it took them a while to get a place as then pure-blood were still the preferred choice in the day. Thank the Gods that isn't the case any more. I think they eventually decided to have a child together, after marrying that is, but they had a miscarriage. Mum was too upset to try again for a while so together they decided to adopt us; me, Carlito and Sev. About 8 moths ago she got pregnant with a twin girl and boy and so far there have been no mishaps. I'm so happy for both mum and dad and can't wait for a little brother and sister. We've decided on names already. Theodore Abraxas Draco for the little baby boy and Rue Dantai Artemis for the little girl. Personally I think Carlito and Sev are quite happy and proud to be 'big brothers' again. They seem to have missed the role since I've grown up. (Doesn't stop the teasing though ...)

So … my romantic life …? Reasonably non-existent at this point in time. I was quite a know-it-all in school and before then as well. I still am to some degrees, and in all fairness wonder why I was in Slytherin when my Gryffindor reckless determination resulted in me trying to stuff my hand up my professor's noses with questions. So yeah … during school I've admittedly had my fair share of crushes … on a couple of professors too, I must admit. I went out with some boys too but I really couldn't stand the way they tried to control me. There is this man I quite like though. Yeah, you heard me right, man not boy. His name is Septimus Potter and he's a Professor in an institute in Italy. He's half English, half Italian and has a really great sense of humour. I'm just not sure he views me like I view him.

Getting off the smushy topic … worst fears. I HATE SPIDERS! I can not stress that enough! They are so amazing but their little legs shouldn't let them run that fast! Fast enough to chase you onto the sofa, at which point you realize they can climb and start screaming your head off. Other than that … fire. I know I'm aligned to all four elements; fire, earth, air and water. Fire = Gryffindor, Earth = Hufflepuff, Air = Ravenclaw and Water = Slytherin, but I think I'm least like a Gryffindor and therefore have a fear of fire, if that makes any sense … I doubt it does but anyway. I'm loyal, hard-working, prepared to overcome boundaries, unafraid to stand up for what I believe in, full of nerve, intelligent, original, creative, determined, sly, cunning, ambitious, self-preservation is important to me, hard to open up to most after my past, wise after having lived my life during and after the war as a target by the remaining death eaters, quick to catch onto the drift, a little arragant when boasting about my achievements but only to those I don't respect, quirky, difficult to outsmart, tedious, suspicious, paranoid on occasion, always looking over my back, back-stabbing when I discover a traitor, and more … but only standing up for what I believe in and full of nerve are Gryffindor qualities. Uhh. Now I've got myself confused! Other than that, my fears consist of knives (don't ask me why), dying before I've achieved what I want to and the death of loved ones.

2) Give a short description of your character's personality. Are you noble or sneaky? Arrogant or humble?

I'm loyal, hard-working, prepared to overcome boundaries, unafraid to stand up for what I believe in, full of nerve, intelligent, original, creative, determined, sly, cunning, ambitious, self-preservation is important to me, hard to open up to most after my past, wise after having lived my life during and after the war as a target by the remaining death eaters, quick to catch onto the drift, a little arragant when boasting about my achievements but only to those I don't respect, quirky, difficult to outsmart, tedious, suspicious, paranoid on occasion, always looking over my back, back-stabbing when I discover a traitor and quite a bit more.

3) Are you Pure-Blood, Half-Blood or Muggle-Born? Do you have any notable magical relations? (Remember, you cannot be related to important Harry Potter characters!)

Half-blood.-*ref1 And related only to others in the Prince family.-*ref2 Adopted mother was a malfoy-*ref3 and adopted father a black.-*ref4 Adopted brothers are a Cuban pure-blood with no apparant character relations-*ref5 and a muggle-born Snape clearly related to Tobias Snape.-*ref6

4) Describe your character's profession. Do you plan to enroll your character into the Ministry of Magic? Does your character not work? Is your character a teacher?

So, I'm about to turn nineteen, and hope to be going back to Hogwarts next year. I will have completed an apprenticeship in Arithmancy, Transfiguration, Potions, Charms and Dark Arts (which leaves me qualified to teach Defence against if I wanted to). I don't think the time-turner department in the Ministry would like me talking about how I managed to take the apprenticeships during my school years … Anyway, I hope to teach either one of a combination of a few of my subjects as an assistant professor until a current professor wishes to retire, and I have the opportunity to take that role. My aim is to get to the post of Head of Slytherin, eventually.

5) Describe your character's marital status. Is your character single or married? What is the spouse's name? Any kids?

So … my romantic life …? Reasonably non-existent at this point in time. I was quite a know-it-all in school and before then as well. I still am to some degrees, and in all fairness wonder why I was in Slytherin when my Gryffindor reckless determination resulted in me trying to stuff my hand up my professor's noses with questions. So yeah … during school I've admittedly had my fair share of crushes … on a couple of professors too, I must admit. I went out with some boys too but I really couldn't stand the way they tried to stuff their tongues down my throat and their hands up my shirt. There is this man I quite like though. Yeah, you heard me right, man not boy. His name is Septimus Potter and he's a Professor in an institute in Italy. He's half English, half Italian and has a really great sense of humour. I'm just not sure he views me like I view him.
