I'm the patron saint of your demise.
A. Please answer the following questions as elaborately as possible. (Remember, this part is only a requirement for your third to fifteenth character!)
1) What would you consider to be your character's strengths, and your character's weaknesses? Elaborate on your answer.
Seraphina is an extremely smart young girl who is driven toward success and hopes to become a significant part of the ministry one day. She is diligent, hard working and very kind to everyone she meets. However, some weaknesses would be her extreme shyness and inability to be socially adequate in any given situation.
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?
One day when she is old enough, she hopes to become the heir to her family's fortune and own the vineyards. However, in the mean time she would love to finish school and get a job in the ministry.
3) What's their ideal way of spending a free day? Why so?
Honestly, Seraphina's idea free day is studying or sleeping because that's really all she knows at this point in her life.
4) If your character could only keep 5 possessions, what would they be? Why?
She would have her textbooks, a notepad for notes and really any sort of thing that would be bland or boring, just like her. :')
5) What one thing would your character change about the wizarding society? Why?
One thing that she would change in the wizarding society is prejudice against blood status, species or special ability because that's what makes wizards and witches unique.
6) What house does your character want to be in? What house does your character not want to be in? Why?
She wants to be in Ravenclaw, where she feels that her energy and efforts would be best spent. Hufflepuff would be the worst place for her.

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!)
Seraphina Beaumont is the epitome of shyness as she struggles to communicate with every person she meets. While this shy phase only lasts for so long, it can revert when put into an awkward situation that leads her to freeze up and recoil emotionally. While having a fear of being a freak, she tries to avoid interpersonal relationships to the best of her ability but finds herself always making friends regardless.
While naturally intelligent, she has a special eye for detail and spends a lot of her time studying ahead of her fellow peers in attempt to be at the top of her class. She hates to be put on spot or being openly complimented or praised while she believes that hard work is a privilege and not a reward. Seraphina loves a challenge and enjoys solving puzzles, believing that education is the key ingredient to a perfect ministry employee.
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!)
The wizarding Beaumont family has been migrating between France and England since the early sixteen hundreds, which is about as long as they have owned the trademarked Beaumont Vineyards that produce some of the finest wines in France. Carlisle Beaumont met a young and very beautiful Amabella when they were just mere teenagers in high school. Having been together for so long with dreams of creating a family, Aceline was born on January 15th. Their next child, Orville came two years later. Finally, they added the last link to their family tree; Seraphina, the youngest Beaumont.
Her life was relatively easy and laid back and living on a huge vineyard had its perks; like delicious grapes and plenty of room to explore which was what the other Beaumont children did while Seraphina stayed in the comfort of the family library, where she spent a lot of her time playing with books since she couldn't read them yet. When she finally learned, thanks to homeschooling, she hardly ever was seen outside of the library.
By the age of twelve, Seraphina was the second Beaumont child to display magical abilities after Orville. Unfortunately, the magical gene had not passed Aceline. This didn't come as a surprise to either Carlisle or Amabella, as not only did the gene skip Carlisle but Amabella had witch blood in her own family.
With the encouragement of Maurice, Carlisle's witch mother, Seraphina and Orville were sent to Hogwarts to attend school like she had. Having joined in her first year, Seraphina is inching closer to her dream of applying to the ministry while Orville just wants to mess around and become a recording artist.

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!)
No
6) What year is your character in?
