You Name: Stephanie Age: 21 RP Experience: a good few years  Literacy level: intermediate? not sure really. Have/Are you RP(ing/ed) for HR before/now: nor :3
Character
Name: Stephanie Clark Gender: Female Age: 14 Blood Status: Muggleborn Year: I'll happily be a 3rd year, just unsure what age they are? -Let me know and I'll change it!- House: I'd like to be Hufflepuff? but Gryffindor is also an option. Options: damn. Just said all that above I'm happy in any year, but would prefer 3rd upwards and Gryffindor is okay if you need members  Wand: 14 inches, holly with dragon heartstring Pets: Doesn't have any - has a terrible memory and never remembers to feed the poor thing! Stephanie does, however have an old battered owl known as 'Banjo'
Physical Attributes:
Stephanie is approximately 5'6" and is slightly under weight for her height. She has long, brown, hair that often has a slight wave throughout. It often kinks out in random places, however it usually compliments her harsh jawline. Stephanie's hair is glossy and contains natural highlights and low-lights where the sun tarnishes it during the summer months.
The main colour of her eyes is green, however the closer you get, the more you see the tiny specs of brown tracing the outside of her pupil. Stephanie has large, alluring eyes, that she exaggerates using small amounts of make-up (when permitted of course). She has blemish free, porcelain like, skin. Her skin is often the envy of all her friends, she has no need to wear make-up (to cover uneven skin tone etc) This is probably one of the only positive, physical, attributes inherited from her mother. Her small, unfeminine, stature is just one of the many negative traits inherited from her ancestors. Stephanie has ghostly white skin which almost glows in the dark!
Stephanie has a very chiseled jaw line and noticeable features that all manage to compliment each other well. Situated under her chin is a small scar, this was caused by a childhood accident involving a spanner and a packet of crisps (don’t ask) Stephanie also has a slightly wonky nose, which she can't stand to look at. She will never forgive her brother for hitting her with his broomstick...

Face Claim: Kaya Scodelario
Biography/History: Family breakdown: Father - died only months before she was born in a car accident. He was working long days at the bank and then working a night job as well in order to afford the new baby. Lack of sleep and exhaustion made him fall asleep at the wheel. He was an intelligent man and did very well for himself at Hogwarts and missed out on head boy by the skin of his teeth.
Mother - As her mum is a muggle she doesn't really agree with magic and therefore doesn't approve of her children attending Hogwarts; however the decision is completely out of her hands. She is quite a shy lady and doesn't often speak her mind, her boyish figure and tatty looking hair make her appear to be older than she really is.
Siblings - Stephanie has 3 brothers aged 17, 19 and 22. She also has an older sister who is 26. Her sister has recently got married and has just given birth to a baby boy called Nathan, which instinctively makes Stephanie an auntie.
Friends - As she is quite a social butterfly, Stephanie has a number of friends and is quite known throughout Hogwarts. Although she is known by a lot of people, she doesn't have many close friends who she can talk to. In fact she doesn't feel comfortable enough with anyone yet to share thoughts/feelings or emotions with. Stephanie gets a long with anyone (or at least she tries) and sometimes can appear a bit pushy... she doesn't take no for an answer.
Home life - Stephanie, being the youngest, often got more attention than the rest. Especially since there is quite an age gap between her and her 17 year old brother. However this attention wasn't always positive as her mother would often ask too much of such a young girl. She was required to do the chores most days of the week and had developed some strong household skills at a particularly early age. Although her mother wasn't always as nice as she could have been, Stephanie knows how much love there is between them and enjoys doing any extra work to keep her mum happy. It was difficult for Stephanie's mum to accept her daughter as it was only 3 months before Stephanie was born that her husband had died.
Personality: Smile, you know… for the camera? – Stephanie is naturally a very happy-go-lucky person. Her summery personality manages to light up the room (no matter how dark). Making people laugh, making people happy and making people feel good about themselves are just a few of the things that she loves to do.
Flying high, above the sky – Not something she really likes doing, but it is something she is pretty good at. Her father, who died before she was born, was rumoured to be excellent with a broom. Stephanie likes to think she inherited the skill from her father, hence why she takes such pride in something she’s not that interested in.
Forgive and forget – forgiveness is something that Stephanie strongly believes in. After all, what’s the point in holding grudges? She values her friends and doesn’t think that silly arguments should stop her from enjoying her time at Hogwarts.
Love me, Leave me – Stephanie has always had a hard time getting close to someone of the opposite sex. She’s had a fair few male friends, but that’s all they’ve ever been. She hates this part of her personality because she has always wondered what it would be like to have someone care about her. The thought of letting someone get to close to her is both heart-warming yet terrifying. Having someone know her so well makes her feel vulnerable and she doesn’t like feeling defenseless. Stephanie is seen as being emotionally strong, but the possibility of a guy breaking her heart makes her very weak.
One negative chip in her personality is that her happy personality can be seen as being rather patronising. She has often got into trouble with students for being ‘cocky’ and not knowing when to keep her mouth shut. Her so called ‘fake’ personality is frequently ridiculed by a variety of different people, including her mother.
Like most people, Stephanie has a fear. A fear of getting lost, both physically and mentally. Sometimes she questions herself and what it is she wants to do with herself in the future and that scares her quite a lot. Physically, Stephanie is always tumbling around Hogwarts and later realising that she has no idea where she is.
Sample RP:Strolling into the common room Pansy saw a few students talking by the windows, choosing to ignore them she bundled herself on the couch that was next to the fire.
Pansy closed her eyes, a thick blanket of dreams was thrusted upon her as she felt her body relax and sink into her surroundings. She floated in and out of what could be a variety or strong and vivid memories, some which she was so keen to remember and others that she would do anything to try and forget. Then you had the memories that made her smile, the ones that made her cry and the ones that she always loved to think about.
The thick fog of darkness slowly began to clear as Pansy harshly rubbed her eyes, the mist of dark slowly crept its way out of Pansy's focus, revealing a grand looking room. It had lots of statues and ornaments that clung to the many shelves and cases, all varying in different shapes and sizes. The whole room felt expensive, sparkling and shining in the lights that hung peacefully from the ceiling. Crystals and diamonds filled the atmosphere as she gazed around in astonishment.
There were two over-sized windows, one was situated at the far end of the room and the other was just to Pansy's right. From where she was standing she couldn't quite see out of the window, it was something that she hoped to do before she left the party, to see the grounds of such an amazing place. If the elegance of the room was anything to go by she knew that the grounds would look just as beautiful.
She quickly looked at her hand and realized that she was standing in the doorway of the magnificent room, the door felt smooth yet textured beneath her finger tips. Taking a step into the room she stumbled slightly and grasped tightly onto someone who was standing to her left. Looking down at the floor she could see her own reflection. A small gasp escaped her small heavily glossed lips as she let go of the door and reached for her hair, it was neatly and beautifully tied up at the side of her head, with small curls softly bouncing down her cheekbones and across her delicate skin. A small silver slide was carefully positioned holding the style in place.
After getting over the shock of her hair she looked up from the reflection and analyzed why she stumbled in such a manner, her shoes. They were silver and strappy with a reasonably large heel, they were gracefully covered up by a long baby blue silk looking ball gown, it had small sparkles neatly stitched into various places and glowed against her pale skin. Taking another step forward she corrected the position of her feet and maneuvered herself out of the way of the entrance.
Closing her eyes tightly she quickly released them, suddenly there was a quiet buzz of conversation and a slight hum of music. Looking round the room she noticed people suddenly appearing before her eyes, popping up in random places. They too were also wearing ball gowns that were much like Pansy's. More and more people appeared to apparate into the hall, as the chattering began to get louder and louder.
Remembering the window she had seen earlier she attempted to weave herself in and out of the small groups of people. Eventually she managed to break through a tight cluster of people and found herself face to face with the window, it was much larger than she had expected and reflected Pansy's posture and dress perfectly. Her eyes lit up as she analyzed what she was wearing. The blue ball gown glided gracefully over her hips and floated to the floor, it clung on the sides of her shoulders and revealed quite a bit of skin. A large very expensive necklace, fell nicely alongside her collar bone and shimmered in the light as she breathed in and out.
Looking past her reflection in the window pane she glared out onto the grounds. To Pansy's horror and utter amazement they were black, jet black. The flowers were black the features... they were all black. Some of the flowers, bushes and plants looked like they were either dead or that they had been burnt. The trees had no leaves and were snapped or broken, ropes and bags hanging lifelessly from various branches. In the distance she could see something moving, she walked closer to the window and pressed her face up against it.
She was so engulfed in the mysterious moving figure that she didn't realize someone had walked up beside her. "Are you OK?" a soft gentle voice asked her. Before she had the chance to answer they quickly kissed her passionately on the lips.
Closing her eyes she reopened them to see if what was happening was real. As her eyes readjusted she looked around the room, she was now out on the grounds. It was cold and icy, a weird whistling noise drifted over the grounds and twisted through the tall looking trees.
The dream was slowly beginning to feel more and more realistic. When she was up in the ball room she had trouble feeling things physically, but now... now it was different, she felt the small individual rain drops hitting her on the head. Just like she could feel the wind sweeping through her clothes, of which were now battered and torn. Reaching down for the base of her dress she saw a number of what looked like burn marks, singes in the lining.
Her hair was now a mess and her nails were all cracked and broken, a few were bleeding slightly. A number of scratches were sprawled up both her arms, a heavy plum colored bruise was distinctively positioned at the top of her arm. Analyzing them further she could see what looked like finger marks, obviously from a very strong grip. A small tear escaped her eye as she felt herself crumble inside, tumbling to the muddy ground she felt her heart begin to start racing, gasping for breath she couldn't work out where she was. Light headed and breathless she looked around for some kind of help, a heavy fog had drifted across preventing her from seeing too far into the distance.
Pansy began to panic as unbelievable amount of agonising pain swept over her body. It was unbearable and uncontrollable she hurt all over, all she could think about was if this feeling was like what death would feel like. More and more tears escaped her eyes as she began wincing in pain. After a little while she curled up into a ball, shuddering violently every time she breathed heavily.
Soon she was awake, awake from the nightmare that was once a reality. Lying on the couch she noticed a number of people standing over her, she was shivering and shuddering still as her body slowly came back to reality, her cheeks were damp from the tears that had oozed from her tightly closed eyes. "What, what are you looking at?" she covered her face, trying to hide herself from the world. the students. her life.
