The Character's Background

1) Give a description of your character's personality. It must be at least two paragraphs long, seven sentences each.

She is a strong willed individual who is never afraid to back down from a challenge. Her need to be unnoticed makes being in the public a large struggle, especially with her job. She is always on top of everything, even things that aren’t her’s to do. She never says no, becuase she sees no as a weakness. Every move she makes is calculated and typically very bold. She sees mercy as the path only weak people take, and heroism as a challenge only the worthy can pass. She despises those who show no respect to others, and pities on those who don’t know how to stand their ground.

Her past made her walls almost indestructible, and her personality cold. She buries herself into her work, and has never had a person to call close to her. When she went as younger, people feared her because her personality. They all thought that she was nice, but one image chasing incident made them question if she even had a heart. Ever since then, no one dared to get close to her. They feared what would happen, and this caused her already chilly persona to be even darker. She lost all hope in good, and pushes through life with her only goal being work.

Her employees are terrified of what she could and will do. They fear that one day their will be the ones to cross her. She has grown used to others fearing of her and makes no move the change that. In her eyes, those who have terror running down their spines will work best. A small part of her wishes she could have done things differently when she was younger. Maybe she would know what love was like if she did. Maybe she would have employees who didn’t hate her. She always pushes away that part of her before it can become too strong.

2) Write about the history of your character. How did they grow up? Is there an incident that made them the way they are? It must be at least three paragraphs long, seven sentences each.

She grew up in a fairly well off family. Her ancestry is all Pure-Blood, and her she is an only child. While her parents were loving people, her grandfather lived with them; she favoured him more so than her parents. Her grandfather was also a cold hearted man who made no move to bring peace to others. She spent her younger years learning from him, and eventually becoming like him. He passed away in her fourth year at Hogwarts, and it completely wrecked her. The already cold, miserable girl got pulled into a void of darkness.

About three months after his passing, students had begun ask her about him. She didn’t want that; she wanted to be alone. Eventually, she snapped. Her wand was pulled out, and she was shooting spells and curses the way of a innocent third year. He was in a comma for two months. She would have been expelled, but there was no one to witness her deed, so they could not prove it was her who did it. Though the students had suspected it, and no one dared to get close enough to figure it out.

She made her way through Hogwarts with top-notch grades, but no friends. Her parents had passed away due to tuberculosis, but this was while she was at Hogwarts so she never caught it. This did not have as much of an effect as her grandfather’s death. She simply spent a week away from school the went back to her studies. After graduating, she moved towards building her business. Her parents had left her a large sum in their wills when passing away. She used this money to start her business Lux Technologies. This was an innovative way to enhance human technologies with the Wizarding World’s magic. It was huge hit and her company expanded into 23 different countries. She has over 300 individual stores in total.
