Forum:Elisabeth Fletcher

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. Elisabeth's strengths, she'd have to say, are her creativity, intelligence, and curiousity. Her weaknesses are her quick to fall silent in upsetting situations, her natural distrust for anyone who offers her help, and her naviety and quickness to trust in something that isn't true.

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? Her goals and objectives are completely undetermined yet. She does not know of happiness, and does not know of love, so she'd have to say that it's her goal to find someone who can love her for who she is.

3) What's their ideal way of spending a free day? Why so? Her idea of spending a free day is inside their small apartment, usually back in her small closet-like bedroom, with her few journals and books around her while avoiding her drunken father normally.

4) If your character could only keep 5 possessions, what would they be? Why? '''1) Books. 2) Journals and writing stuff. 3) A small locket. 4) Her wand. (In the future) 5) A small bag of clothes and random stuff.'''

5) What one thing would your character change about the wizarding society? Why? She does not know of what she would change about the wizarding society... Elisabeth is only seven, and does not have a good ideal of what's wrong with the society.

6) What house does your character want to be in? What house does your character not want to be in? Why? Elisabeth does not really care what house she might be placed in. She doesn't even know of the houses.

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!) '''Elisabeth was once a bouncing, smiling and generally happy baby girl. She always had a smile on her face, and whenever anyone looked at her, they couldn't help but smile, but that has now changed with the discovery of her magic. With her father beginning to try and beat out the magic in her, Elisabeth has began to change with the damages done.

No longer is she the beaming bundle of joy that everyone knew... She now became a very closed in little girl. She doesn't spend days outside, playing anymore, rather she is rarely seen by her neighbors. Elisabeth does not speak a lot, but inside, she's very creative. Elisabeth has a strange connection to singing, and has spent the majority of her time when she's not being hurt, practicing various songs.

Elisabeth is a closed-in little girl, and barely trusts anyone. She has been lied to her entire life, and has been raised that it was the truth, so she does not exactly know the difference between her home life and what others have. She is determined, but has a weak mind at times, and she's seriously slow to trust people, especially those who have given her friendship or help.'''

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!) 'One Friday night, after a long work-week, Alexander Fletcher was in his favorite bar, with a bottle of Summer Shandy in his hands and was just talking with his buddies when his attention was caught by a woman dancing. The woman, it turned out that her name was Maria Tonkin, and before both knew it, they were upstairs and romping in the sheets. The next morning, Alexander woke up, bed cold and Maria gone. All that was left was a note, saying "I appreciated the night. -Maria.''" Little did he know, however, that he accidentally impregnanted her.

And so, nine months later and after he had long forgotten the bar incident that everyone knew it as now, he woke up to find a tiny pink-wrapped bundle on his front steps and a small note, written in Maria's handwriting. The note had six words, the baby's name and birthday, before ending there. He never found Maria again... And instead brought the baby into his apartment. Everything seemed normal for a year... Until Elisabeth began to display different abilities.

Alexander was immediately terrified and began to try and 'beat' the magic out of her. He abused her; physically, emotionally, mentally, trying to beat the 'freakishness' out of her. He turned to drinking to help him gain needed support, and continued to hurt Elisabeth every chance he got. She attended school, but she could only rely on herself. Between the ages of three to five, she thought her name was 'Freak', but when she started school, she learned her name was actually Elisabeth.

She's been hurt by her father for almost six years now, and has basically given up all hope of rescue. But, Elisabeth has instead turned to herself for company, and spends most days inside their house. However, turning seven, she has began to figure out how to get around using magical transportation, and has began to take refuge at Hogsmeade and Diagon Alley, learning about magic more through books and watching it in action.'''

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! Elisabeth Fletcher is modeled by Summer Fontana.

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!) Muggle-Born. N/A.

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!) N/A.

6) What year is your character in? She's 7... So no Hogwarts for her yet.
