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.

Her curiosity, she doesn't let what she doesn't know or understand frighten her.

Her curiosity, she's bad at taking warnings and acknowledging danger before it's too late.

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?

Lead a life that gives her an endless amount of stories to tell about the places she's been, the people she's met or the things she's done.

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

She likes exploring, wandering wherever it is that the wind takes her. She could be as happy on a construction site as she would in an abandoned building.

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

A compass, Lego "Lucy Wyld" Watch, MOBA Masterworks Postcard, Red panda plushie, her wand

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

She doesn't know enough about all of the rules yet to have an opinion about change.

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

Gryffindor because she thinks she might find someone just like her there.

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!)

Pixie is very animated and easily excitable, she talks with her hands and occasionally loses control of the volume of her voice. She's jam packed with energy just waiting to burst out of her. She spends a great deal of time running at top speed, it gets her places faster. When she's not moving faster than a speeding bullet (figuratively speaking) she's having a whole lot of trouble sitting still. She's always got a foot or finger tapping or twitching, as some might call. Her eyes are wander more than her mind does, she's almost always drawn to something shiny, something moving, or something making noise.

She's quite the unshakeable daredevil and can't seem to resist a challenge no matter how stupid or how dangerous. She's always willing to go charging towards something frightening because she thinks it's fun to be scared. The little voice in her head (what should be her conscience) typically tells her to do these stupid and dangerous challenge because she'll only regret it she doesn't. She doesn't assume this is something bad as it's merely signals from her brain giving her all the right cues that she's looking for.

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!)

Pixie is a Half-Blood witch born in Rockport during the spring of 2028 to Camden Hill and Perry Baker. Her mother Camden worked closely with her father Perry in the field of healthcare and law enforcement in their native state of Massachusetts. She was a night ER nurse and part of the dispatch team for the paramedics. He was a member of the Rockport Police Department and a volunteer firefighter they met formally once they were both gainfully employed, during their time at their primary jobs. They were acquaintances of mutual friends when they went to Ilvermorny, but they didn't have any conversations with one another until they became friends through work. Pixie was the last of three uniquely named children the couple share. Her parents had her name picked out first, before they had even conceived. They didn't feel that such a name fit their eldest two children once they were born, once they'd gotten the chance to meet them. She fit her name perfectly, she was a rambunctious little troublemaker right from the start.

Being that her parents worked hard and often, she and her siblings were cared for during work hours by their grandparents. Her mother and father had a near perfect schedule designed that allowed them both to have at least one day off with the kids and a second day off with one another. When they were all able to take advantage of it, those were Pixie's favorite days of the week. When things got a little hectic, when the work week for her mother and father was rough or she wasn't able to get along with her siblings it was hard to find a highlight of the week. One of the special treats she always liked the most, courtesy of Grandma and Grampa, were the short trips down south to the movie monster museum and the bad art gallery. She didn't mind it when they went to Singing Beach, or Bish Bash Falls, even the grape hyacinths at Bulb River still impress her. There's nothing like the first scare at Count Orlok's or the stupid jokes and puns at the Museum of Bad Art. Prior to a shooting at the hospital that cost both Camden and Perry their lives, the Baker family talked of leaving the US all together. To gauge the reaction of the children they proposed the idea of a long vacation to England or the Netherlands. It was more of a fantasy than anything else, a story about a place they had never been before yet everyone had their own version of. After the cremation of their parents bodies Indigo, Lyric and Pixie had their lives packed away into boxes. Due to the wishes of both her parents the small family was uprooted and relocated to the UK to live on the plot of land their father choose in Hertfordshire. Pixie was unhappy about the move, she was more unhappy not to have that little bit of time with her parents each day and night. She was too young to know how to express her feelings at the time. Doing whatever it took to ease her own emotional pain she created her first imaginary friend. Shortly thereafter she discovered her magic, she was eight when she levitated a small container of juice.

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!

Janet Jackson (I know she's in her 50's but I plan to use pictures of her from the late 70's and age her appropriately into adulthood... if that's okay)

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!)

No

6) What year is your character in?

First

1) Is this your first character?


 * A. This is my first character.


 * B. No, this is not my first character.
