 * Born in Colorado
 * Favourite fruits are coconuts and mangoes, favourite foods are apple pie and bacon, favourite animal (and Patronus) is the kangaroo, favourite flower is the orchid, and is a bit like a cowgirl.
 * She likes to use British slang quite a lot. She also has tattoos. Also she spunky af and laughs at how American English is the 'simplified' version of 'the more fancy/posh' British English. SHE'S GONNA BE A SIXTH YEAR HA.
 * One hell of a creative cook, and her dishes somehow manage to be edible/a tad delicious. Her masterpiece is the Bacon Rum Apple Sauce Pie.

 * Personality
 * "NOT FROM MIAMI, YOU BLOODY TWATS!"
 * Cowgirl
 * Spunky af
 * One hell of a creative cook
 * 'Talk sh*t, get hit' kind of gal
 * Except she doesn't hit with her fists
 * She hits vocally and can be really savage
 * On better days, she is a 'too posh for your cr*p' kind of gal
 * It depends, really.
 * Sassy af
 * Creative swearer
 * 'Sweet sassy molassy' is her emergency back-up curse
 * Can run and fight in heels as tall as 8 inches. "Nothing less than seven inches, aye."
 * Musical virtuoso, but string instruments hold a special place in her heart
 * Meme-loving f*ck
 * Taylor Swift's music is bae


 * 3 cups of cowgirl - Who says cowgirls and cowboys can only be found in Texas? Maiami is a Colorado-born cowgirl and proud of it. She's got everything down from the hat to the boots to the attitude. This may make her stand out in the new environment but she doesn't care. She does what she wants and won't let others' opinions affect her.


 * 2 tbsp. of sass and spunk - Maiami lives to live, not to please the rest of the world. Try to convince her otherwise, she will strike you down, hard. And believe me, she can be pretty brutal if she wants to. But most of the time, she's pretty chill. Chiller than the polar icecaps, aye.


 * 3/5 cup of Genderbent Gordon Ramsay - You know another thing Maiami is passionate about? Cooking. And she's damn good at it too. She can spend a whole day or two cooking away, ignoring the world around her. Not even an apocalypse can disturb her when she's cooking. She wants to be perfect when cooking and spends a whole lotta time making sure the measurements and amount of ingredients is just right. Her passion gets a tad too extreme when teaching others though. She turns into a genderbent Gordon Ramsey, so brace yourself for screams of "THAT SQUID IS SO RAW I COULD HEAR IT TELLING SPONGEBOB TO F*CK OFF" when she's teaching you.


 * A dash of creative swearing - Years of having her entire family hush her when she spoke a curse word built up this... interesting habit of hers. Whenever she needed to curse, she makes up a whole new curse word to substitute for the real one in case her parents were somehow omniscient. Although, there are times when the creative swear-producing part of her brain runs slow so she uses an emergency back-up swear: "Sweet sassy molassy." The only time you'll hear Maiami use legit swear words is when she's undeniably pissed up to the brim or when she's teaching someone to cook.


 * 1 lb of stilettos - Ever since she saw that awesome lady chase down a mugger in 8 inch heels, Maiami had been aspiring to be just as awesome as that lady. WIP

 * History
 * Parents are named Jordan Appledore (Pureblood) and Annalise Appledore (nee Griffin, Muggle)
 * Born in Colorado, U.S.A
 * Twin of Orlando Benvolio Appledore, she's younger by three minutes
 * Wanted to become a princess, became a queen cowgirl instead
 * Completely adored Jessie the Cowgirl from Toy Story
 * Believes that women don't need any other man other than their dads.
 * Somewhere along the road, she saw a lady who chased down a mugger in 8 inch heels so she aspired to be like that lady.
 * First sign of magic was when she magically cushioned the sidewalk while attempting to run in heels for the first time.
 * Often gives Orlando, more like her family, heart attacks bc of how reckless she is on heels
 * At one point in her life, she wore heels for three days straight. Her feet hurt like hell, but it was worth it.
 * Her siblings often conspired to hide heels and anything that looks like heels. Maiami was not pleased.
 * During a cold rainy day, Maiami and Atlanta found a set of six Bengal kittens shivering in their backyard The family adopted the kittens, Maiami naming hers Mangaroo after she saw how much Mangaroo loves mangoes and often jumps at Maiami whenever she has mangoes.
 * Got her letter from Salem on her 11th birthday and attended the school for three years
 * Eventually, her mum (who was British) decided to move back to England.
 * The siblings enrolled in Hogwarts and Maiami was sorted.
 * Maiami's American accent has faded and was replaced by a British accent. She also fell in love with British slang.


 * Annalise Griffin is the youngest of the family and is a complete wanderlust who somehow went from Idaho to Orlando, which is where she met the very charming Jordan Appledore. Unbeknownst to her, he was a Pureblooded wizard. She and Jordan shared the same passion for travelling the whole world and seeing the beautiful secrets it held, so naturally, Annalise fell in love. Their love spanned all around the US and occasionally Canada. They never got tired of the new environments they found themselves in. The best part is they never did get tired of travelling all around even after they had kids.


 * Jordan proposed to Annalise when they were touring the Michael C. Carlos Museum in Atlanta. That was arguably the happiest day in Annalise's life. Time flew and soon, Annalise Griffin became Annalise Appledore in a beautiful summer day in Chicago surrounded by family and friends. The couple couldn't be happier. That is, until Annalise became pregnant with their first child. Their neurotransmitter levels were off the charts! For the first few months in Annalise's pregnancy, they continued their tour around the states, eventually deciding to go outside the US and reaching Mexico. They were in Colorado when Annalise's water broke and naturally, Jordan panicked. Thankfully, Jordan got Annalise safely to the hospital, where the couple was blessed with a beautiful baby girl, whom they named Atlanta Diana.


 * Why such a peculiar name? I forgot to mention that Jordan was such a fanboy for names with significant meanings and Annalise was, too. So they decided to name their daughter after the city where they were engaged and a Roman goddess. Soon after Atlanta's birth, the couple decided that it was now time to settle down and grow a family. They were a tad disappointed when they had to give up the huge opportunity to travel even farther but for them, their daughter was their entire world. Little did they know, their family was about to grow bigger.


 * A few years later, Annalise was pregnant once again. This time, it was a boy. Jordan joked that finally he had another man in the house, which was met with A Midsummer Night's Dream in the face. Several months later, Chicago Oberon Appledore came into the world. I don't think they intended it but they had a name theme going on. Anywho, Chicago was named after the city where Jordan and Annalise got married and a character from A Midsummer Night's Dream, a reference to the book Annalise threw at Jordan when he told her a joke a few months earlier.


 * The family lived a content life in Colorado and pretty soon were gifted with another addition to the family, or should I say additions. You read it right, Annalise's last kids were twins. The matriarch's water broke when she was reading Romeo and Juliet while eating cereal. Strange combination, don't you think? Pregnant ladies have the strangest cravings, let me tell you. A few hours later, Orlando Benvolio and Maiami Ceres Appledore, the youngest of the family, entered the world. Orlando was named after the city where the couple first met and after a character from Romeo and Juliet while Maiami was named after the city where they confessed to each other and after the Roman goddess of agriculture.


 * Maiami Ceres Appledore was the youngest and the baby of the family, having been born three minutes after her twin Orlando. She didn't really mind since hey, being the youngest has its perks, like siccing her parents after her older siblings when they upset her. WIP
