6) Give a description of your character's personality. Personality must be at least one paragraph long. 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!)

Empathetic. Soft-spoken. Fierce.

Often in an intense problematic situation of not knowing how to express herself, Zeph tends to speak only when spoken to. It's not that she doesn't know how to read people, in fact she's quite good at it. She prefers to keep to her own devices, and strongly disapproves of gossip. When under pressure, it is almost automatically obvious to those who have spoken to her as she will likely be stuttering and her ADHD kicks in.

Mature and docile, the young witch is a peacemaker among her peers. Surprisingly, she is always more self-assured and confident when speaking for others. It is often said that she would make a great mother, to which Zeph immediately denies while a faint red color. Unbelievably patient, Zeph can tolerate the most annoying of people with ease.

This witch is no pushover though. She can read like nobody's business, and has a limit to how much jeering she can take. Don't think this sweet, quiet girl doesn't have a temper - because while she may be infinitely patient, everyone has a breaking point. And Zeph's breaking point is not something you want to see...mainly because her magic is more volatile than others. Her personality type is ISFJ, but has no preference between Sensing and Intuition.

7) Write about the 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. (Again, you can copy this onto your character page later!)

Accidentally bumping into someone and hexing them in Hogsmeade was admittedly not the best first meeting. But it happened, and somehow Aidan Ravensdale, a silver-tongued Slytherin prefect fell head over heels in love for a rambunctious Ravenclaw with a flippant attitude, Felicity Sacrab, who was also a constant detention attendee.

People placed bets on how long the relationship would last. Only one of the students had faith and won it when Felicity became a Ravensdale four years post graduation. The newlyweds worked in separate departments in the Ministry, Aidan being an Unspeakable and Felicity being part of the Department of International Magical Cooperation. They had their first - and only - child a year after their marriage. Vienna's parents always did their best to put her into their schedule, no matter how tight, but sometimes it just didn't work out and they had to hire the occasional nanny.

The young Ravensdale was admittedly, a well-behaved baby, then a child, then a teenager. She rarely ever cried, and was rather patient for a baby. Nannies were relieved to find out that she did not bawl too loudly or crawl around biting everything in sight. Vienna, or Zeph as she preferred, grew and flourished in their home in France.

By a turn of good luck, her parents were there when she experienced her first burst of magic. It was a good thing, because the event would've been disastrous if they hadn't been. Four year old Zeph had literally flown up to the roof to reach an injured bird. She nearly fell off, but her parents were so relieved that she was safe that they allowed her to nurse the bird to full health.

When Zeph was diagnosed with chronic idiopathic urticaria at age six, her life changed in some ways. For one, she could never stay out in the sun for very long anymore. Two, her parents decided to move back to England, but they kept their home in France as a summer spot. And three, her magic outbursts were becoming stronger.

During one particular hot day in their new home in England, Zeph was reduced to tears from the hives, subsequently freezing the whole house solid with ice. The nanny, even though she was a witch, freaked. Four wizards of the Accidental Magic Reversal Squad were dispatched to thaw it out alongside her parents (who had been called by the frantic nanny), and even then it took five hours to do so. As Zeph was a mere eight years old then, they couldn't blame her. After much debate and research, her parents finally figured out a way to at least deter her spontaneous bursts of magic.

All Zeph's clothes were enchanted to keep her cool, inside or outside of the house. Unless it was boiling like the Sahara Desert, she wouldn't get as bad itchy fits as before. The charms were in no way easy, as they were basically enchanting the clothes to wrap Zeph into a air-conditioned bubble. And it cost a lot. Nevertheless, it worked and any further bursts were less theatrical and damaging.

The following years were more mellow and somewhat dull. At age eleven, Zeph received two letters - one from Beauxbatons and one from Hogwarts. Her mother pulled her aside to explain that they had French blood, and thus the double letters. Zeph was allowed to choose, and she chose Beauxbatons, mainly out of homesickness.

Nothing really eventful happened in the school for the next five years, though Zeph eventually learned German and Dutch from friend or two. She passed her OWLs with flying colors, getting mostly Os. However, she was expelled shortly before the end of the school year when two of her classmates framed the blowing up of a classroom onto her. It wasn't too bad...and Hogwarts sounded like a nice change. Her parents tried to comfort her to no avail.

Then in the summer after her fifth year, tragedy struck.

Aidan and Felicity were brutally murdered during a small visit to Russia. They were there on Ministry orders, and were killed alongside two others, including a certain Myosotis Chrysanthe's half-sister. Zeph found herself alone in the world with a fortune for an inheritance and two houses.

Naturally, the British Ministry took responsibility. Her parents had been there on their orders, after all. Zeph was sent to Li'l Bundles, and the only thing that could comfort her was that it was only less than 2 years before she could set out on her own. She fell into depression, only ever speaking when spoken to. It was no doubt that she wasn't going to be adopted by anyone.

Until two women came to the orphanage one day and gave her a new family.

Katie and Bethany met during a trip the Salem institute made to Europe. They were on Hogsmeade, when Bethany bumped into Katie. That day they became friends, but were separated due to Katie only being there for a trip. Katie returned to Salem, and Bethany continued her years in Hogwarts as a Ravenclaw. It was on their sixth year that Katie had had enough. She hadn't forgotten of Bethany. She asked her parents to transfer her to Hogwarts, knowing fully well that was where Bethany studied. Or at least she hoped she still did. Her parents were those kind of parents that preferred success and money over family, so it was easy for Katie to get transferred to Hogwarts. When she arrived, she was sorted into Slytherin, which she didn't mind. The day she finally found Bethany, she ended up nothing but a shell. Why, exactly? She was lip-locked with her boyfriend. As soon as she saw Katie, though, she pushed him away and tried running after her, but her boyfriend didn't exactly take it kindly.

Having taken this the wrong way, Katie desperately tried to head back to Salem, just to be stopped by her parents. They were finally rid of Katie, and they didn't want her back. It didn't matter, though, because a week later or so, they died. Quite brutally, might I add. They were tortured, and later burned to death because of some old rivalry with a gang leader. Long story short, the guy was found, got condemned to jail for life along with his goonies, and Katie passed her sixth and most of her seventh year in Hogwarts all depressed.

By the time they graduated, Katie and Bethany had already talked and sorted things through. It came to light that Bethany's ex hurt her multiple times, and so he was expelled a week before their seventh year Christmas break. Years had passed of Katie and Bethany dating, when they finally got married. Instead of getting the help of science, they'd decided to adopt, and so the Mitchell-Anderson family grew. Nine months later, Sophia Mitchell-Anderson and Theodore Mitchell-Anderson were born.

A year after their birth, the married couple decided to continue adopting, their love of kids being too big. It wasn't a problem, though, considering they had the help of their eldest kids.

Something about soft-spoken and book-ish Zeph caught their eye. Zeph herself didn't know why they would adopt such an almost adult when they could've gone for the cuter and younger children, but she's extremely grateful. What she does know for sure is that she doesn't need to live without a family for the rest of her life.

8) Write about your character's appearance. How 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!

If I'm reading this right, Victoria Justice isn't being currently used, so it'll be her model. :3

9) Are you Pure-Blood, Half-Blood or Muggle-Born? Do you have any notable magical relations? (Remember, you cannot be related to important Harry Potter characters!)

Pureblood

10) 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 likes? Part or half of that magical race counts! (Remember, you cannot have an "exotic" characters as your first two characters!)

Uh, she has chronic idiopathic urticaria, but I don't believe that counts as exotic.

11) What year is your character in?

6th
