Forum:Rachel Griffin

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.

'''Rachel's greatest strength is her not caring about other people think of her. She thinks her weakness is not being a Metamorpmagus but really is her terrible memory'''

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?

Rachel's goal is to become an artist and have her pictures by hung up in Louvre because she has always wanted to be an artist and having your painting hanging beside some of the most famous in the world is a massive succes.

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

It would be painting all day whatever she wanted or just being with her whole family, including Wyatt's other family 

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


 * Madagascar hissing cockroach: It is her favourite pet
 * Her vast collection of hair dyes: Closest she can get to being a Metamorpmagus
 * Her paints: How is she going to become a famous artist without a media?
 * Family photo: It's the only one she has and could find with Wyatt in it, even though she barely remembers him
 * Pink tutu: She tends to wear it a lot, even though she has never done ballet

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

Rachel would try to change that you don't have to be born a Metamorpmagus because she wished she was born one.

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

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!)

'''To put it simply, Rachel is an odd child with odd habits. She likes having her hair odd colours, likes wearing odd looking clothes and acting odd, which is how she separates for her siblings. To her, having natural hair colours is odd so everyone that doesn't have natural hair colours are normal and tries to get along with them. She has the habit of drawing on herself and others, making the drawings as weird as she can. She aspires to be an artist and has since she was a child, so drawing on herself, others and her things was a habit that was always there. Apart from wanting to be an artist, Rachel wished she was born a Metamorpmagus which is why she is always changing her hair colour, rather than sticking with one colour for ages. Her many odd habits include, keeping weird pets, going all psycho on her siblings for no apparent reason, dancing everywhere she goes, talking loudly when she doesn't need to, her obsession then later crush on nearly every guy, thinking anyone that was nice to her, even if she met them once, is her best friend, standing outside for as long as she can in a storm and sucking on her, what she calls it, elbow pit all the time. She tends to act more of a boy then her brothers at times, getting dirty when they don't want to and all the other typical boy stuff. '''

'''She doesn't care what other people think about her irregularities and if someone says something about them, she just goes even weirder. Her odd habits and style make her unique, which is what Rachel always wanted to be. She may get cast out from certain people because of how weird she is, but she doesn't care because she knows that anyone that doesn't like her are just to ordinary to realise how amazing she is. She has a strong sense of family, even if she is always even fighting with them, always being there for them when they need someone.'''

'''In her mind, Rachel's opinion is the greatest and nobody else's really matters but will still listen to their opinion, only thinking that because of her regular fights with her siblings. Rachel may not seem like it, but she isn't to smart but tends to act like she is, like when she found out Wyatt was her half brother, saying she knew he was but really didn't. She may seem like a goldfish with her short attention span and memory but everything is still there, just Rachel can't get to it. Her very opinionated and odd attitude make her hard to talk to and make friends with if she doesn't find the person interesting to talk to. She tries to get along with her sisters as much as she can, giving that she thinks they need to stick together being the only girls in the house without kids, and as well as trying to make friends or reconnect with Wyatt's maternal half sisters, thinking that they are basically family because they share a brother.'''

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!)

'''Rachel was the 5th child of Liam and Alice Griffin and the weirdest of any of them. She was born smaller than any other child in her family but was still just as healthy. Being born a few months after Queen Chambers, they were introduced to each other at very young ages as hopes that the only two in each of the families the same age and gender would actually get along, but it only seemed like the did as babies because once they turned 3, it was clear to see Rachel didn't favour Queen, so that was left in the dust. None of Rachel's weird habits that could be seen in her teenaged years, apart from drawing on things, developed for a while, until her family was almost ripped apart. She was barely 3 when Wyatt was born, barely remembering any of it. It turned the whole Griffin family upside down. Liam and Alice started to fight worse than ever, mainly because Alice had given birth to their last child a few months before Wyatt was born. Liam started to spend less time at home, and Alice never giving a straight answer to where he was when Rachel asked her. All her older siblings and her mother started becoming more and more depressed because of Liam spending long amounts of time away from his family, all the way up to him never coming back, which made all the children in the house extremely depressed.'''

'''Seen her whole family act weird was what subconsciously influenced Rachel to became the odd child she is at Hogwarts. She asked Abby for her 6th birthday present if she could dye her hair blue for her because she wanted to be like a Metamorpmagus with different coloured hair and was what started her whole odd coloured hair thing. After her 6th birthday, Abby and Rachel would sit together and dye Rachel's hair a different colour every fortnight until Rachel started doing it on her own, which wouldn't be until she started going to school. After Abby dying Rachel's hair blue, Rachel started doing more different things, wearing odd clothes combinations, bringing odd animals she found outside into the house, dancing everywhere she went and more as a way to keep herself happy. '''

'''The first time she ever did magic was when Lance was teasing her about her recent hair colour, bright red, when she was 9. He was constantly teasing her that she looked like she was burning and Rachel didn't like that and wanted him to stop. He soon did when he noticed that his hair was as red as Rachel's because she had changed his hair colour without knowing. Before Rachel's 10th birthday, she overheard Abby and Hardy talking about other magical schools in different countries and to Rachel, Hogwarts didn't sound as appealing as other school, but more specifically, Beauxbatons.'''

'''She begged Alice to let her go to Beauxbatons and after a few months of persuading Alice, Alice enrolled Rachel in Beauxbatons. She spent her first three years at Beauxbatons, soon learning French and becoming fluent in it. By the end of her third year, Abby convinced Rachel to go to Hogwarts, Abby's intentions of Rachel getting to know Wyatt. By the start of her fourth year, Rachel was still her weird self but just at Hogwarts instead of Beauxbatons.'''
