*SALEM ACADEMY OF WITCHCRAFT AND WIZARDRY!
LET THE GAMES BEGIN
*BASICS! full name; Hunter Elodie Xenith (Hunter, Hun, Honey, Hunt, Terri, Rie, Elodie, Lodie, Dee, Elle, Ellie, Ella, Zenith, Zen, Hex, Jinx) age; Sixteen year; Sixth house; DISSEMBLANCE wand; 11 inch teak, with unicorn hair & manticore heart PB; Megan Fox
*APPEARANCE! hair color & style; Dark brown, normally curled eye color; Generally sea green, but changes with extreme mood swings height; 5'10 weight; 115lbs anything else; Slim, has done modelling, has ears and navel pierced, several tattoos
*PERSONALITY! 10 or more likes; i like many things, and it is hard to compile a list, but i'll try snakes, stars, night, darkness, charms, potions, dueling, arguing, foreign languages, warmth, sun, storms, bodies of water, candles, jewellery, surprises, animals, friends, insulting people, flying, fire
10 or more dislikes; there are as many things that i love that i despise... spiders, blast-ended skrewts, clumsy people, gryffindors, muggles, muggle-borns, being ill, herbology, care of magical creatures, history of magic, being alone, speaking english, snow, giants, rules, early mornings, divination, stupidity, nuts, shellfish
10 words to describe your character; confident manipulative sly loyal intelligent sarcastic creative generous romantic bold aggressive unpredictable
overall; my strengths are pretty simple. the first lies within the receptiveness of the person. i am very good at making people do what i want - manipulation, if you will, though the word sounds more harsh than it really is. another of my strengths is flying. i am a beater for slytherin, so i guess another of my strengths could be physical strength, although that sounds somewhat redundant. i am very strong at picking up other languages very quickly, and i can duel with the best of them, when i put my mind to it. confidence would be another of my strengths, i guess, for it is very hard to shake it at all.
my first weakness is definitely the most potent and troublesome for me - that is attractive people. they never fail to distract me, and therefore are something of a hindrance when i am trying to concentrate. another weakness of mine is my allergies - i am very cautious around food because i am allergic to shellfish and nuts. i worry also about what people think of me, which could be considered a weakness, because i rarely think for myself because of it. i never let it show on the outside, though.
i guess i have a kind of a compulsion when it comes to tidiness and cleanliness. everything has to be 'just so' all the time, otherwise i get very stressed out and jittery. also, i bite my nails quite a lot, and can't seem to make myself stop, although i only do it in the comfort of my own dorm, or when there are no people around. another of my habits is that i tend to slip into french without realising when i am angry or tired.
things that really send me up the wall are people tapping their fingers or pens on the desks, people that make no effort with their appearance, people that think they are more intelligent than me, mudbloods in general, when people slander my family, and when someone tries to hurt my friends.
that kind of describes most of what i'm about, but if you need any more information, i guess there's a little more that i can say about myself.
not to blow my own trumpet, but i am an intelligent person. i got all O's and E's in my OWLs, and expect the same in my NEWTs. i reckon people were just exaggerating. writing isn't exhausting anyway - it's exhilarating! i think i'm quite like hermione granger of british fame in that way - academics really come easily to me. most people think i never do my own work, which smarts slightly, but i pretend not to care what anyone else thinks.
i remain aloof for much of the time, not allowing any one person to see what i am truly feeling. this, thinking about it, may not be the best way to go, but it is too late to change now - i finish next year, and any extravagant change in character would just confuse people and serve to isolate me further than my sharp tongue and keen wit already have.
2 fears; having a bad allergic reaction and not being able to treat herself never finding love dying alone being shunned/outcast failing
2 secrets; she is a virgin her real parents are dead she has a twin brother that she doesn't know about
2 goals; to find love to marry to become powerful to be rich
*HISTORY! moms name, age, & profession; mirabelle, 37, deceased dad's age, name & profession; randolph james II, 40, deceased siblings, age & profession; n/a three good paragraphs; i was born in lyon sixteen years ago. february 14th, to be precise, although it was a close call. i was born at thirteen minutes past midnight. it being the middle of the night, it was dark and dismal when i was born, but there was a carnival, i'm told, happening right outside the hospital, to try to cheer the patients up. i was told that, when i was born, my father ran outside and started telling every single person that would listen that he was a father.
we lived, were educated, worked, and played in lyon. we did everything there. it was such a vibrant town, and i loathed leaving it, even for a short amount of time. i can perfectly remember the night when me and my mother sat in the lounge and just cried together. she cried, although she was married to someone else. she still loved him, and i knew that, although i didn't see it at first. i was ten years old, but was so naive about the world. i kept asking god why he had taken my father, but he never answered. i know why, now, but back then it felt like we were being ignored, picked on by the highest power in the universe.
we moved shortly afterwards, my mother, her husband, and i. we went to live in paris, where he was born, but nowhere felt like home more than lyon did. he tried, poor fella, but i just wasn't interested. i just wanted papa back, but i'd never see him again. i never even spared a thought for how my father's wife must have been feeling. i only cared about how my heart seemed to be splitting in two.
when my mother died, not so long afterwards, i was in school when i found out the news, and i walked around in a daze for much of a week, before i was granted leave to go to my mother's funeral. i stayed away from school until the end of the summer term, although her funeral was only near the beginning. i just couldn't face people.
now, during the holidays, i go and stay with wesley, my mum's husband, because he moved to salem to be close to me, to help me, and i feel bad for disliking him. we live in the city, on the borders of the magical and the muggle worlds. we stray into both, but we have different preferences - i much prefer the magical sector, whilst he feels more comfortable amongst the muggles.
i have passed my OWLs with flying colours, as was to be expected, what with a regimental regime of studying and revising to plough through in the holidays (my own choice, not wesley's), and i plan to pass my NEWTs with the same kinds of grades, although i'm not sure where i want to go to work yet. i'm just hoping that my grades will allow me to do anything i want.
