'''The first thing you need to know about Sveta is that she knows she's gorgeous and she knows how to take advantage of it. On more than one occasion, she has had men and women twisted around her fingers with just a bat of an eyelash. But she only uses it it times when it is desperately needed and would often resort to her sly manipulations before using her beauty.'''

'''But when she isn't off manipulating some poor schmuck, she is trying to regulate her sister Tama's mischievous antics and looking out for her. Just pure big sister instincts. She cares and loves Tama with all her heart and she is overly protective of her. Touch one tiny hair on Tama and you'll face the wrath of a half-veela. Believe me, their fireballs sting pretty badly. She is also rather down-to-earth, but due to Tama, she does know when logic can be overruled.'''

'''Svetlana is also rather confident, not a shred of shyness can be seen in her. She knows her self-worth and the extent of her abilities and respects herself. Some may perceive this as arrogance but it's just her, loving every bit of herself, including her flaws. Very rarely will she doubt herself and has a full belief of her abilities. Although she has confidence now, she was very conflicted with who she is, whether she truly belongs in the Muggle world or in the Magical world. With the help of Tama and her friends, she was able to be at peace with herself and has decided that she can belong in both worlds.'''

'''The only time Sveta's confidence crumbles is when she's singing. This still isn't remedied and Sveta would very well prefer to die before singing in front of anyone, except for her mother and Tama.'''

'''She is also more perceptive of emotions compared to her friends and is often their emotional support. She is often jokingly referred to as the 'emotional therapist' of the group. She is also surprisingly knowledgeable at the subject of love, often having the best ideas for dates and other things related to romance. She is also fond of matchmaking. Her favourite pair? Tribecca. If you need anyone with the brains for the best matchmaking ideas, have Sveta in speed dial.'''

'''At the age of 7, Svetlana was diagnosed with ADHD and surface dyslexia. Her ADHD makes it unbearable for her to stay still for a long period of time and her surface dyslexia makes it impossible for her to read words with irregular spelling such as sew, pint, and yacht because she will read them as sue, pinnt, and yatchet.'''

7) Write about the 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. (Again, you can copy this onto your character page later!)

"Привет, I am Svetlana Maksimilianovna Vasilyeva, daughter of Maskimilian Vasilyev and Mykhaila Kostyshyn. My матір met my отец one cold December. папа was in Ukraine looking for a job. папа grew up in a poor household, my бабушка having left the family due to reasons my папа won't tell me. He never had any luck in finding a job and thus went to a park to rest. There, he met мама. That park was мама's favourite, which is why she is always found there. папа immediately fell head-over-heels for мама, and мама fell in the same fashion. They caught each other and began a relationship."

"Their relationship soon led to me being born. I got my мама's gorgeous looks, but I got my hair from папа. They named me 'Svetlana' because I brought light into their world. Мама was around for the first year of my life. I could barely remember her but I know she had a sweet voice. However, мама left папа. Why? I don't know. папа refuses to talk about it, although I have a feeling even he doesn't know. Eventually, it was just me, папа, and дедушка. Looks like being left by the one you love is a tradition in this family."

"When it seems like папа already has enough angst in his life, cancer just has to strike дедушка and it struck him hard. That happened when I was 5. Because we were poor at that time, папа wasn't able to get дедушка the proper medications and he... passed away. I was so fond of дедушка, he taught me songs of the Chukchi and how we were descended from the Chukchi. I loved his stories about how free the Chukchi were long ago, when their land was devoid of mines and gulags and were instead vast white tundras and taigas. He was the only one of us three who truly knew the Chukchi language. The only Chukchi word I know is Gitingev, beautiful woman, which was дедушка's nickname for me. He told me the Chukchi would sometimes name their children after what they would like the child to become. I'm proud to say that his wish came true."

"It turns out, the death of дедушка is the last of папа's miseries, because he landed a job at a big-shot company when I was 6. It was hard for us, since I was very young then. But папа was able to find a solution, a friend named Vitaliya. Vitaliya became my caretaker when папа was off doing his job. I miss him, yes, but I know he was doing it for me. For both of us, no matter how cheesy it sounds. Years later, when I was 9, things became a lot more brighter. папа became promoted to a particularly high position, making us rich. It took some time to get used to it but eventually, I did. Unfortunately, all good things come at a price. папа became busier than ever before, I rarely ever saw him. Sure he did give me a lot of nice stuff and a lot of nannies, but he didn't give me his time."

'''"I tried to suck it up but I was only 9 at that time, I couldn't handle my emotions well. Eventually, strange things began to happen whenever I get too angry, excited, sad, or disgusted. Windows broke, things fly into my hand, things burst into flames, etc. Yep, definitely strange. Also, a pretty lady seems to be observing me from afar. Little did I know, it was мама. папа didn't mind, or didn't pay attention, to the weird things I was doing. Of course, I got childishly angry and willed for more of these strange things to happen. I wanted папа to give me attention, because he never did give me any. But what, or rather, who is worse is папа's secretary, Agrafena. I don't know why but папа never notices that she was only sucking up to him. It was really obvious, even Vitaliya noticed. Agrafena always tells папа about how disrespectful and disobedient I am, when I don't even interact with her. Rude b**ch..."'''

'''"Eventually, she convinced папа to send me to a disciplinary school. I spent two miserable years there, and I didn't even deserve it. Although, in the middle of my third year there, I was pulled out. Turns out Vitaliya was able to convince my папа that Agrafena was a gold digger. папа apologized to me profusely in person. Like wow, that was the first time in several years that he ever spoke to me in full sentences. I can say that it was a very emotional day for us. папа couldn't promise that he could spend more time with me, but he did promise that he'd find someone who could keep me company. I held on to that promise as I received a letter of acceptance from Koldovstoretz. папа was flabbergasted about a magic school. Well, who can blame him, he's a Muggle. Vitaliya turned out to be well, surprise surprise! A witch. Like a real witch. She explained to us about how I'm well, magic and about Koldovstoretz. She told me that I was a 'Muggleborn', meaning someone magic that is born to Muggle, or non-magic, parents."'''

"папа was skeptical, but eventually, he agreed. He figured that I would make friends there. So I did. I spent two years there in Koldovstoretz, enjoying life. Magic was really fascinating too! Who knew you could bend the laws of physics and logic itself with just a few flicks of a stick. What was really memorable is that I met мама for the first time ever. It was during a field trip to Ukraine. I thought that it was some kind of sick joke, but she proved it. I never felt happier in my life! Мама was- is the prettiest person I've ever seen in my life. She told me she was a Veela. I read about Veelas a few months prior to the meeting so now I knew why мама is at a goddess-level in beauty. She also gifted me a dagger with a gold hilt, for protection she had said. Unfortunately, she couldn't stay long... But she did promise me that she will try her best to keep in contact. That was the last time I saw her."

"For years to come, I trained myself in the art of dagger wielding and I could say that I am pretty good at handling it. Want to spar with me sometime to find out?"

"One happy thing came after another. By the time I went home for Christmas, I found out that папа adopted a 10 year old named Tamara. I was overjoyed with the fact that I had a sister, which means I won't be alone anymore. Not that Vitaliya isn't a good company but still! I did my best to be a good big sister for Tama and to make her feel at home. That was the start of a very beautiful sisterhood. I still remember the times Tama and I spent together, then and now, and how happy we are. In fact, those memories are so precious to me that I use those to conjure my Patronus. She still doesn't know about that tidbit of information. This will be a secret between the two of us, okay?"

"Just when I was completely comfortable with Koldovstoretz, папа's job dragged him to the United Kingdom, causing us to move there and for Tama and I to transfer to Hogwarts. You could just imagine how upset I was over the move. That meant leaving my beloved country and my beloved mother. While it's true that I haven't seen hide nor hair of мама, we always corresponded and she was also able to meet Tama via owls. I quickly told her about the move and she promised to follow if she can. That put me at ease, but there's still a lingering fear of forever being separated from мама. Thankfully, папа, Vitaliya, and Tama were there to comfort me. папа still doesn't know that Tama and I were still in contact with мама."

"When I got to Hogwarts, I was 'sorted' into 'Slytherin'. I have no idea why they decided to split the student body into four 'houses' but I was a tad upset when Tama was 'sorted' into 'Gryffindor'. That meant I cannot watch over her like in Koldovstoretz, but I trusted her to not cause too much trouble or raise too much Cain. C'mon! I'm not that uptight. Hogwarts has its own beautiful scenic spots, like the Black Lake. The castle is majestic and very big! The paintings are wonderful company, too, with their myriad of stories from times long ago."

"Don't tell anyone but I just love stargazing, which is why I go out to the Black Lake every night. There, I met the wonderful Rebecca Ortiz. She's a rather interesting girl, being able to express herself in a plethora of ways. Soon, I met other characters; Nausikaa, Adrian, Charlotte, and Tristan. To be honest, I can very well sense the romance between Becca and Tristan. You can imagine how giddy I was when they hooked up. Finally, my ship is canon!"

"A tiny twist is that Becca also knows how to wield a non-Magical weapon, a butterfly knife and a boot knife. One of our many favourite pasttimes is sparring. Rather fun if I do say so myself. It got better when mixed with our ADHD."
