Forum:Cayley Argent

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.

'''For her strengths, I guess Cayley is pretty persuasive. She's used to getting away with what she wants because she's a good talker and she knows how to work her way around different situations. She's also feisty and tenacious and would definitely try her best to get what she wants, no matter what it takes. Along with this, her weakness would be her ignorance, and the fact that she thinks she can do whatever she wants - which often gets her into trouble. She's also quite impatient and a bit temperamental.'''

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?

'''For one, she wants to graduate so she can move out of her mom's flat and live a life on her own. She really can't wait to get school over with so that she can do whatever the hell it is she wants to do.'''

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

'''Find a secluded spot and smoke, maybe. If not, she'd try to get in someone's pants or make out just because.'''

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

'''Her wand, because magic, duh. A pack of cigarettes she secretly keeps, because everyone deserves to let loose, alright? A condom because she promised herself to always be safe, clothes, obviously, and some money she can spend. Overall, she's not really a sentimental person, she doesn't keep much with her.'''

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

'''Maybe get rid of the age ban for magic. She thinks it's stupid and she really wants to use magic outside of school.'''

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

Hopefully, Slytherin.

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!)

'''If there's one thing you need to know about Cayley, it's that she does not like to be restrained. She sees herself as a free-range pony, and wants to explore as much of life as she can, even if she's still young. This is also the reason why she doesn't do committed relationships, and tends to go for casual ones with people she meets. She's also very tenacious, and feisty and won't let anything get in her way. She'd try to achieve her goals with whatever way possible, as long as it benefits her in the long run.'''

'''Because of some terrible life events, Cayley has grown to be independent and capable of herself. She may seem rambunctious and "slutty" for her young age, but trust me when I tell you that she's matured and has grown out of the "young, innocent lady" phase most girls her age would be in. Because of some terrible life events, she had to put her guards up, and adapt to the cruel world she lives in. She refuses to let anyone see a weak little girl in her because that would make people think that they could take advantage of her. She thinks that that's bullshit and will not let it be, because she's strong and she would not let anyone think that she's any less that what she is. Along the way, she might paint herself as a person you should not be friends with because she's "slutty" and all over the place, but she's fine with that. She doesn't need friends. She can do things on her own accord, and she ain't afraid.'''

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!)

'''Cayley was born to pureblood parents, Chandler and Veronica Argent in Paris, France. Chandler was an auror while Veronica worked in the world of magical law. Because of the nature of their jobs, they had to move around a lot, and so Cayley grew up learning lots of different languages when she was young, among them were French, English, German and a bit of Greek and Russian. Cayley was a real daddy's girl, and was very close with her father. She loved him very much and she was very devastated when one night, when she was 9, her mother called on to her crying, and gave her news of her father's death while out on the job. It took a very very long time for Cayley to recover from that tragic loss, and even when she did, she started lashing out in ways that would paint her as an angsty, teenage rebel to other people's perspective. She had her first sign of magic when she was 10, when she caused the light bulbs in their house to explode because of her frustrations.'''

'''At age 11, she was admitted to Beauxbatons after she and her mom moved back to France. She was bullied a lot during her first year because she was fatherless. It was a petty thing, but it still happened. This caused her to start standing up for herself, thinking about her father and how he would not have wanted Cayley to be defenseless and not fight back. She started becoming more of the Cayley now - strong and independent and capable of standing up for herself. When she was 12, her mother remarried - it's a bit soon, yeah, but Veronica isn't that much of an angel herself, too, to be honest - and because of her yearning for a father, Cayley got close to the guy, Trevor, too. Now, Trevor was very problematic and during the summer, Trevor raped her. He was successful, and it scarred Cayley for life. Veronica found out, and he kicked him off, but it still changed Cayley. She became depressed, and angsty, and while it was a traumatic experience for her, she realized that she liked how sex felt, and started seeking it our on her own. She's still very young, yes, but her experiences had made her a problematic, angsty teenager.'''

'''She continued with her sexcapades for a while, sleeping with older students at Beauxbatons, going out into the city during the summer at night. Her mother was always away, and so she pretty much had all the time in the world to explore. She also found out she's pansexual at this point. When she was 14, during the middle of her fourth year at Beauxbatons, Cayley managed to seduce and teacher, and she slept with him. However, they were caught, and so both she and the professor faced expulsion from the school. Her mother was very angry with her, but she did not give a f*ck. She also refused to get back to school and deferred for a year. Her mother, not knowing what to do anymore, proposed a deal to her. She told her that if she gets back to school and finishes, she'd let her move out and even give her money for whatever the hell she wants to do the minute she graduates. Convinced, Cayley agreed and was sent to Hogwarts to continue her fourth year, despite already being 16.'''
