The Open-Ended Questions

A. Please answer the following questions as elaborately as possible. (Remember, this part doesn't have to be filled out if it's an expansion character!)

1) What would you consider to be your character's strengths, and your character's weaknesses? Elaborate on your answer.

Her sweet and trusting nature makes her easy to take advantage of. She’s the first to volunteer if anyone needs help and always keeps her word if she promises she’ll do something for you. Generally she is carefree and optimistic.

She was brought up by her parents to be polite and respectable, not to make a fuss and therefore to hide her feelings or opinions if something is wrong, even when dealing with sadness and grief. Criticism often hurts Anna deeply, but she’s been taught not to show it.

There's more here if you wanna look, but forget you ever saw that link, okay? :P

2) Has your character's life played out the way they wanted? Have they achieved the goals they set out for their life? Why, or why not?

She thought it was going that way, until recently. She was engaged and pregnant, but sadly lost the baby and later broke up with her partner after he cheated on her. Now she's confused and, despite her parents thinking she's being petty, she's moving to England from American to try and prove herself to be self-sufficient.

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

Baking or sewing with her mother, then heading out to grab a bite to eat and doing some clothes shopping.

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

Uh, I'd never even thought of that xD Probably various clothes/jewellery with sentimental value, like from her parents or ex.

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

She wouldn't really change anything.

The Character's Background

1) Give a history of your character. History must be at least two paragraphs long. How did they grow up? Is there an incident that made them the way they are? etc. (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!)

Anastasia was raised in American by two well-off and traditional pure-bloods, where she attended Ilvermorny in the house of Pukwudgie and met who she thought to be the love of her life, Darren.

He was perfect, and her parents both respected and adored him. Soon after graduating they became engaged, and not long after that Anna joyously became pregnant. But…it wasn’t meant to be. Late in the pregnancy Anna miscarried, causing her immense emotional pain that she felt she had to hide. She became withdrawn. At first people were sympathetic, but then a year passed and she was little better. It was during that time that her fiancé cheated on her, with someone she had thought to be her best friend. In hindsight he was never really that nice to her to begin with, but she forgave his manipulative tendencies and told herself she was just being a good partner for accepting her soulmate’s vices.

Her parents think she’s being foolish for breaking up with him and keep urging her to “come to her senses”, but that’s partly because she never told them the reason. She felt guilty and as if it was somehow her fault, so kept the affair a secret to her family, perhaps she was also afraid of how her over-protective brother would react.

Despite her family thinking she’s being childish for running off to England, she’s determined to try to prove to herself that she can be independent and self-sufficient, and hopes her time away might toughen herself up and prevent future heartbreaks.

2) Give a description of your character's personality. Personality must be at least one paragraph long. Are you noble or sneaky? Arrogant or humble? (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!)

Her sweet and trusting nature makes her easy to take advantage of, but she isn’t stupid. If you lose her trust, you won’t get it back and she tries not to make the same mistake twice.

She’s the first to volunteer if anyone needs help and always keeps her word if she promises she’ll do something for you. Her very nature could simply be described as motherly – she loves to share, is patient and compassionate. Anastasia is diplomatic and fair, and tries to use her persuasion skills to defuse potential arguments.

She was brought up by her parents to be polite and respectable, not to make a fuss and therefore to hide her feelings or opinions if something is wrong, even when dealing with sadness and grief. Criticism often hurts Anna deeply, but she’s been taught not to show it.

Being extroverted, she enjoys others company, but doesn’t go out of her way to seek it out. She can become quite lonely and therefore clings to people once she’s attached to them, letting go of things isn’t a strong suit of hers. But generally she is carefree and optimistic. Despite having her heart broken recently and vowing to not let it happen again, Anna still believes in true love and is a hopeless romantic.

Her passions are mostly creatively based, she enjoys both music and crafts, as well as cooking and baking. Since she was a little girl she’s played piano and her mother also taught her sewing and dress-making. While she likes rustic homely things, she can be a little materialistic and has fairly expensive tastes, but she shrugs the insult off as simply wanting to be able to give her future children a good life.

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!)

Pureblood, no notable relations.

4) 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 one as your first two characters!)

No.

5) What is your character's profession? Does your character plan to enroll your character into the Ministry of Magic? Does your character not work? Is your character a teacher?

Unemployed at the moment. OOC I didn't want to commit to a role if I decide not to stay on the wiki.

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

Recently broke off an engagement.

7) What about your character's appearance? What do they look like? Feel free to write down what they look like! If you're using any FC, you can put a picture here! Please state the character's faceclaim!

Model is going to be Candice Accola
