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! However, if you want to have more input on where you character is sorted, then please answer #6!)

1) What would you consider to be your character's strengths, and your character's weaknesses? Elaborate on your answer. Samuel's strengths include his organization skills, {trait two}, and {trait three}. His weaknesses include {trait one}, slightly less empathy, and high expectations for other people.

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?

"Right now, I want to do well at Hogwarts. I have a strong feeling that I'm going to end up in the Ministry, but, who knows? Life can change at any moment. Though, becoming Minister for Magic seems like a nice thing despite all the hard work that goes along with it."

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

"Oh, that's a hard one. I'd really like to continue several side projects that I'm working on right now. I don't have enough time right now to complete them, so to have an entire free day would be nice. However, if some friends or family came knocking around, I wouldn't mind going out for some bit. And of course, buying some new stationary would also be nice."

4) If your character could only keep 5 possessions, what would they be? Why?
 * Wand - "This is literally the key to your survival with five possessions only. Wait, though, they never said you had to leave your house, only be able to keep five possessions."
 * Tent - "In the off chance that you do get the boot from your current residence, a tent would be handy. Like, you know, one of those ready made tents with things inside already? Even if you stay at your residence, there's no way you're going to think a bed or a kitchen table is more important than your other possessions."
 * First Aid Kit - "A little loose blood can go a long way..in the wrong direction."
 * Sudoku book - "Not exactly survival skills, but your brain needs something to relax from all the stress this scenario would take on."
 * Fresh set of clothes - "You can't think people will take you seriously if you wear your cheeto-stained shirt that you've worn for five weeks. I mean, you could always steal from muggle clothing stores but if you look suspicious they'll be following your every move and you won't get anywhere with that. Looking sleek and nice is the key to having people trust you."

5) What one thing would your character change about the wizarding society? Why? "There's a lot of things wrong with Wizarding society and I don't see how we can't solve them all together if we do it efficiently enough."

6) What house does your character want to be in? What house does your character not want to be in? Why? He'd like Ravenclaw, as he wants to make some intellectual and fun pals, assuming that is really how Ravenclaws are.

'''Alison Wang thought that Ewha Womans University had a pretty motto, so it entered her list of potential universities to attend. She never thought that she would get in, but when she saw that she did, she immediately left her Vancouver home in order to attend.''' '''Alison's years there were the best she'd ever experienced. She lived in a penthouse with four other roommates, who soon proved to be one of the closest friendships she had. It was through Lee Se-Yeon, that she ended up meeting Sung Han-Yeol, one of Se-Yeon's Yonsei classmates.''' '''They were both majoring in Computer Science, but Alison had suddenly lost her confidence around the tall handsome Korean male. They ended up being friends for quite awhile until Han-Yeol, finding her asleep at the library, promised to take care of her.''' '''The couple enjoyed four years together before deciding to tie the knot. There were complications, as both were hard workers at their jobs and the couple had decided to move to Palo Alto, California, in all of the confusion of wedding planning. But finally, after five years, eight months, and thirteen days of dating, they finally tied the knot, both aged 26.''' '''In between projects and promotions, the couple managed to spend some time together...in bed. Shannon came first, and in orderly two year period after, came Melanie, Joshua, Kyla, Aron and finally, Samuel. The children were brought up in a household that combined both artistic and academic activities, and were sent to schools that shared those same principles.'''
