The Open-Ended Questions

A. Please answer the following questions as elaborately as possible. (Remember, this part doesn't have to be filled out if it's an expansion character!)

1) What would you consider to be your character's strengths, and your character's weaknesses? Elaborate on your answer.

She is nice, protective, stoic and strong willed but also stubborn and argumentative.

2) Has your character's life played out the way they wanted? Have they achieved the goals they set out for their life? Why, or why not?

'''Her life has been long and full for one of my characters. She's survived through a lot and is awesome and I still love her so much.'''

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

'''Working at her shop or hanging out with Kade Dane.

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

Her wand, a wallet, maybe some hair bands, a book and a picture of her family.

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

'''She would like to see a world where every magical being and even muggle sees equality and she no longer feels the need to shelter all the little half-creatures running around, scared for their lives. It breaks her heart.'''

The Character's Background

1) Give a history of your character. History must be at least two paragraphs long. How did they grow up? Is there an incident that made them the way they are? etc. (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!)

'''Barcelona, located on the northeastern coast of the Iberian Peninsula, facing the Mediterranean Sea was home to a very wealthy family. Aurelio was successful business-man and the oldest heir to the Chambers line. He started out with buying and selling small islands to the wealthy and grew his empire. Fermina, however, was raised in a very poverty-stricken area by a large family of siblings who all looked after one another. She worked three jobs in order to put meals on the table for her family. Fermina and Aurelio were like night and day and they clashed just as often. Aurelio met Fermina when she was working at a small but fancy cafe and immediately started to flirt with her.'''

'''At first she was unmoved by his attempts but as time went on and he begun to be a regular costumer, Fermina felt her heart open up to the man. She fell for the way he said her name and loved whenever he brought his guitar to play some music. She just as soon started to date him and that progressed quickly into marriage. Fermina gave birth to a handsome boy named Elliot and not long after that came a beautiful little girl named Isabel. They both held distinct features from their mother but one hell of a lot of personality they gained from their father.'''

'''Fermina helped to build the empire even further by convincing Aurelio to start resorts on islands and investments for a cruise ship. This tactic proved to work, raking in thousands of dollars each day. However, the more money than came into the household, the more and more Fermina and Aurelio grew apart. She brought up the proposition that he go to London and try to branch out to the wealthy families of Britain. Thrilled at the idea for an escape, Aurelio packed his things and left the very next morning.'''

Aurelio, taking advantage of his vacation away to finally flirt with some new women, found himself engaging in an affair. After a month, they discovered that Aurelio had impregnated the woman. Shocked and in disbelief, Aurelio ran. He ran back to Barcelona to be with his wife, leaving behind the girl baring his child. He was always a coward and that seemed to not change. One year progressed and constant calls and letters arrived and Aurelio had failed to hide the evidence from Fermina when she caught him on the phone. Enraged, she took her bit of the fortune and Isabel and fled. Unfortunately, Elliot simply wanted to stay with his dad. She would not deny him that even despite the impending divorce.'''

'''With nothing else left to do, Aurelio migrated back to England with his son and joined up with the woman again only to realize that the baby was a female. Another one. He continued to take care of Elliot and the woman until she gave birth to Mona. Isabel, back in Barcelona with her mother, soon showed her magical abilities at the age of 8. Fermina put her into a very wealthy wizarding school. She continued to have contact with her brother, who called her every day and even occasionally spoke to Mona as she got older.'''

'''At the age of thirteen, Isabel requested to move to London through the school year to attend Hogwarts and come back during the summer and breaks. Fermina granted her wish and she moved in with the Chambers. Not long after, both Mona and Elliot left to attend school elsewhere while she was left behind. Her years at Hogwarts were all over the place and she made some good friends along the way, such as Mark Bagman. However, once she graduated, Isabel became the complete opposite of the girl everyone had once known as a sweetheart. Now she is the owner of a shady bar called the spider's web that has an entire v.i.p lounge dedicated to those who are interested in illegal pit fights and gambling. With the amount of dark witch/wizard/criminal clientele, she has learned a lesson or two in turning a blind eye.'''

2) Give a description of your character's personality. Personality must be at least one paragraph long. Are you noble or sneaky? Arrogant or humble? (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!)

'''Isabel, during her years at Hogwarts was a kind, gentle soul with a little bit of a playful kid at times. She definitely struggled to mature mentally over the years. However, since she had graduated and life went through a couple turns for the worse, Isabel completely changed and grew up into a mature young lady with priorities and a business to run. Before she was absolutely terrified of males and couldn't even look them in the eye, now she often finds herself seeking out the company of them to engage in some innocent flirting.'''

'''She is headstrong, stoic and knows what she wants from life and definitely isn't afraid to seize it. She is no longer the little Isabel that everyone remembers, thanks to her mentor Nina Notaras who was in fact an assassin (she assumed from the start), the former owner of the Spider's Web. After learning all she could over the span of a year and spending some time with someone who was bat shit insane, Isabel grew a back bone and doesn't tolerate any bullshit in life.'''

'''She is now a force to reckon with and not only a pretty face or cute smile. Isabel has been trained in martial arts and can/will kick your ass if need be. Since she runs an underground business out of the spider's web, she definitely needs those sort of qualification as now crime is part of her life.'''
