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!)

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

'''Emilie's greatest strength is her mind. She's extremely smart, though she prefers to be alone, save for her siblings. She loves studying and researching, and is especially interested in how people think and the psychology of what goes through their heads. With just a bit of observation she can usually predict how people will act or react, and what motivates them. Her greatest weakness is that her mind and understanding of people have given her a bit of a cynical view of the world. as such she has a strong code of personal ethics that she clings to, and is very unwilling to move from. If something is wrong it's wrong regardless of motives or circumstances. She speaks strongly and doesn't tend to sugar coat things tending to be very forward and direct. The only exception is her siblings, which she helped her mother raise with her father being gone, deployed, then hurt. She has a soft spot for them, and treats them with more tact than anyone else.'''

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?

'To try to figure people'' out. People should be so predictable, and generally tend to be...but sometimes they do such random and stupid things that it's hard to quantify. Why is that? She's considering a career as an Intelligence Auror both to be able to apply her keen intellect and understanding of people, plus uphold the family values of helping keep crime down.'''

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

Reading a book, or sitting in a crowded place observing people and what they're doing, and why.

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

*Family Photo - She loves her family and cares for them deeply...more than anyone else. *Journal - To write her thoughts and observations down in. *Book on Psychology - She could read and re-read these types of books and never get bored. '''*Wand - What's a witch without her wand? Pretty useless honestly.''' '''*That's it...she's a practical girl, not sentimental and not much else would really be worth keeping. Maybe a momento of her time with Rayne from when she was younger.'''

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

'''Why put people in Azkaban for life? Instead why not try to analyze what's wrong with their minds that makes them do what they do, and try to treat them and rehabilitate them back into society? Yes, they need to serve the time for their crimes...but if you don't help them make changes, then when they're let out, nothing will change.'''

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

'''Ravenclaw. She loves study and research. She wouldn't like Slytherin as their ethics are so...flexible.'''

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!)

'''Emilie tends to be idealistic, dedicated and curious. She'd motivated by her strong code of right and wrong, and her intense feelings. She truly cares about the people she lets into her life...which make it hurt all the more when they let her down or try to reject what she values. Still, anyone she's let get close to her she's extremely loyal to, even if she will tell them she disagrees with what they're doing. She wants to make the world a better place for the people she loves and that live there. She naturally is a bit flexible and laid back, unless her values, causes, or people she cares about are threatened, in which case she gets very aggressive.'''

'''She has good relationships with most of her family. With her parents she often tries to continue to help how she can. Her mom loves her help and doing useful things together. Her dad...she worries about. She tries to help make life more comfortable for him, knowing he sacrificed a lot...including closer relationships with his family, to serve a greater purpose he thought was right. Of all her siblings she's the least close to Harley. He never seemed to really want to stand up and help, and as she constantly saw that example from her dad, her brother not following it bugged her. They've mended the relationship a bit while they were both as Ilvermorny. Clara is the one who's relationship is always in flux with. One day they'll get along great and everything will be fine, and the next they can't see eye to eye on anything. Clara's more flexible morals and Emilie's strong moral values sometimes clash and cause issues, but when there isn't some moral battle between them, they get along rather well. Emilie has a soft spot for Rayne given how young she was when their parents got busy with their lives, and how much she was involved in raising her when she was three. She knows Rayne isn't perfect and sometimes has temper issues, but loves her all the same.'''

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!)

'''It was at Ilvermorny that Duncan Davidson met his future wife. She was a British girl, not used to American ways. One boy decided he was going to make fun of her for it. Well, Duncan was about to have any of that. He socked the boy in the jaw. The bully left the girl alone, and Duncan decided he would show her around. The pair hit it off really well, and that's when Duncan learned her name. Jeannie Clark. It didn't take long for the pair to start dating. They were in fifth year at the time, and they stayed together for the next two and a half years at Ilvermorny. On their graduation day, Duncan proposed. Jeannie accepted and just like Duncan's parents the two were married within three months. Once Duncan turned 18, he decided to join the US Army like his father and grandfather before him. Duncan applied to join the US Rangers and was accepted into Ranger School. Upon his graduation from Ranger School, Duncan was sent out on his first deployment, leaving Jeannie behind.'''

'''Emilie was named and born while Duncan was deployed overseas. She's a year younger than her older brother Harley. The situation with her dad had a big affect on her life. For the first years of her life she only has vague memories of him...then he was gone again until she was six. He was around for a while longer and she got to know him a little bit, though he was often at work...then left again when she was eight, finally returning to live with his injury when she was 9. Over the next couple years, her mother worked extra hard to be able to afford the medical bills and to get her father a prosthetic leg.'''

'''With her dad often gone for medical treatments and rehab and her mom working to raise money...Emilie had to step up and help with some of the things her mom had managed, like housework and sometimes even meals. She helped raise Rayne almost as much as her parents as she was only three when this all began. As such she has a closer bond with Rayne than Clara or Harley. Harley wasn't really there to help since he'd already gotten his letter and was at Ilvermorny. So...she did her best to help her family out until she got her letter to go to Ilvermorny and found herself whisked away to school, and away from her family. She was quickly accepted by Wampus like her dad. Over the summers when she came home, she could tell her dad was getting better physically and mentally...though she knew that in some ways he'd probably never recover.'''

'''Her family has continued on like this until recently when her mother made a rather odd decision to uproot their family and move to England. Emilie has mixed feelings about this, leaving her friends from school and going elsewhere. It especially bothered her moving Clara when she was finally getting settled at Ilvermorny. Clara had never quite found her place there, but was starting to accept it just as this decision came. She could see how much it upset her, and hated seeing the relationship between Clara and her dad strained even more. She doesn't know much about Hogwarts, and worries that Rayne will end up worse off at this new place.'''

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!

'''Brie Larson is reserved for her. She tends towards practical clothes and accessories. She has blonde hair with dark brown eyes, and is a bit taller than average, being 5'7". She has a slim build, unlike her mother.'''

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!)

Half-Blood.

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!)

Nope.

6) What year is your character in?

5th.
