6) Give a description of your character's personality. Personality must be at least one paragraph long. 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!) Oli is normally very quiet, since she hasn't fully developed the ability to speak, like 40% of those who have Autism. When she does speak, she has problems with stuttering and tends to be a bit loud as to get her point across when she's upset. She also doesn't understand humour or sarcasm and gets confused easily with socialization, making it difficult for her to make friends. Although, she is great at expressing herself through her drawings, which she has become very skilled at creating. She normally keeps to herself as to not make a fool out of herself, which is something she's really good at doing. She is also obsessed with complexity, although she never understands it, but she wants to.

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!) Oli's parents have never been identified and no one cared to help her look for them. She always knew she had magical blood in her because she was sent to Lil Bundles when she was just a few months old, too early to show signs of magic. She was constantly told that her parents hadn't loved her for one good reason: She was a disastrous baby. Oli always cried and threw fits, keeping people awake late into the night. There was never anything wrong, she just began crying and she wouldn't stop. As she grew up, those sleepless nights became fewer and fewer, but when they happened, they got worse and worse as she began to show signs of magic. Oli was treated as if they other kids weren't showing their signs of magic the same time she was, making her always seem different and taken away from everyone else. When she was 7 years old, she was diagnosised with Autism, which only set her farther away from everyone else.

Oli never felt safe at the orphanage, or anywhere for that matter, because of the bullying for her being different. They were right, though, how could a girl with Autism ever become a stable witch? She never learned how to speak fully and can only use simple words and phrases in her speech, making it nearly impossible for her to ever verbally use a spell. All of the other kids knew this and they found it ridiculous, and the bullying always got worse, the older she got. She never made a friend, although she always wanted one, and had to turn to artwork. Oli loved drawing, sketching, painting, or anything artistic. She always expressed herself through it and the orphanage would  buy her new sketch books every few months as they knew it would keep her quiet. She has kept all of those sketch books, filled with drawings of the other kids or people she's seen at Diagon Alley and Hogsmeade, as she's visited those places often when they allowed her to leave. When she turned 10 years old, she realized that she would be going to Hogwarts soon, in only one year, and she wouldn't have anyone to help her with that.

Oli had always dreamed of having parents and imagined what her parents used to look like, but she never had any, let alone a motherly/fatherly figure. She would see parents, or soon-to-be ones, come in to Lil Bundles and have other kids adopted. It shattered her heart and she felt as if it was her fault, everytime. When Hogwarts became a year away, it settled in that she wouldn't have parents. There wouldn't be that mother to hold her when she came back for the holidays or that father who would kiss her head before she ran onto the train every year. There wouldn't be that mother who helped her with the kids at school or that father who helped her pick out her first pet. She wouldn't have parents, she knew this, but was determined to find some. No matter what it took, she would find someone who would love her forever.

8) Write about your character's appearance. How 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! Oliviah has dark brown hair that is almost too curly and dark brown eyes. Her model will be Yara Shahidi (using her younger photos then using newer ones as she ages)

9) 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!) Unknown, either half or pure

10) 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 likes? Part or half of that magical race counts! (Remember, you cannot have an "exotic" characters as your first two characters!) Nope.

11) What year is your character in? None, she will be a first year next school year though.
