Introducing...
Name:
Eliane Sacha La’Donavic
Age:
May 24, 17
Gender:
Female
Year:
Seventh
Birthplace:
Nantes, France
Ethnicity:
Black (She has touches of French and Chinese from her mother, but it’s too far back to notice fully)
Blood:
Half-blood
Relatives:
Pets:
Chip-Chu, the bear.
Yes, the bear. When Eliane mentions him, there are a flurry of stories as to just why and how this is possible. She fails to mention however that Chip-Chu is kept in a zoo in her town, and she just goes there often to visit him. She can't take him home, even though there were many times in which she tried to convince both the zoo keepers and her parents to.
Koko, the sled dog
Koko is the at home pet of Eliane's. He likes to lay about on his carpet... and that's about it. He's a rather spolied dog, but coming from a home that has many-a dog and cat, he needed a lot of attention to remain a happy dog.
Wand Type:
11 inches, Aspen, Unicorn hair
In magic, Apsen is used in spoken spells and Divinations. It is also favored for flying charms and for bringing a successful completion to a process. Moreover, this wood is good for strengthening the agility in speech and language and can also help in attracting wealth.
Light and easy, very pliable, the wand best reveals its nature in charms, which are the most natural choice for its owner. Also indicates extremely good ability in dealing with spoken magic and with words in general. Though, this kind of magic has no direct (or material) impact on the world; it can only provide some hidden knowledge about it, such as that revealed in the prophecies or Clairvoyance rituals. Can not be used for reckless destructive practices.
Appearance
Picture:
Hair Colour:
Black
Eye Colour:
Hazel
Build:
Slender
Skin Tone:
A medium light brown
Height:
5’7”
Dress Style:
When outside of Hogwarts for the summer or during breaks, Eliane likes to experiment with her looks. She has no set style to her outfits, but she does have a few types of clothing that she prefers. Corsets are her favorite type of tops, while dark colored Capri’s are her favorite bottoms. Outside of that, she can be seen wearing just about anything once. At school when outside of her robes, the girl keeps things simple, and sticks to embroidered jeans and t-shirts with slogans written along them.
Jewelry is a staple, and she’s never seen without her silver bracelets hanging on her right wrist or at least two studs in her ears.
Specifics:
There isn’t a lot noticeable about Eliane when she is fully clothed in her robes. However when she is dressed down it becomes obvious that she has a number of long scars up and down her arms. She was a very accident prone child, so she barely notices them. But every now and again someone traces them randomly or points them out. The clearly random positing of them makes it easier to tell that they were accidental
In Front Of Friends
Sexual Orientation:
Heterosexual
Self Image:
Eliane sees herself as an average girl with a few quirks here and there. She knows there are times when she can seem a little more odd than average but she’s taken the time to accept that and few people can change that. Sometimes she has a plunge in self-esteem, but usually after a day spent by herself she can get over it.
To the Outward Eye:
Explaining Eliane is one of those things that can take years to do properly, then it has to be written all over again just because there’s so much more to learn or she went and changed all together. But at the base of everything she’s a moody girl with an interest in everything and a firm believer in the ‘I’ll try anything at least once’ policy.
Odd habits are a stable with her and it is rather impossible to list them all, but the most notable of them is to make a small funny face when someone looks at her just a bit too long for her liking without speaking, maybe for more than 5 seconds. She loves the oddities and the differences in people and will love and cling to those more in terms of personality more so than ‘normality’, but there are things that even she finds weird and inexcusably odd.
She isn’t terribly outgoing, but sometimes she’ll fake a confidence surge to go out of her way to meet people and get to know them. It’s clear that Eliane likes to make people feel comfortable, so she’ll go out of the way when asked to do a favor to make sure it’s to the requester’s liking.
Eliane has athazagoraphoia, which is a fear of being forgotten or forgetting, though in her case it’s just the fear of forgetting. Because of this, she’ll take more thorough than usual notes in class and will carry at least one notebook and a quill wherever she goes so she can write things down.
Social Status:
Fairly Social. Eliane isn’t the most popular girl in her house in terms of having the most friends, but she has enough regular friends and acquaintances to be happily social. She’s always happy to make another acquaintance and elated to have another friend for her small, close circle.
Positive Traits:
Negative Traits:
Skills:
Language. Eliane can pick up other languages quickly and can use them in an almost fluent skill level. She also has a knack for dancing and cooking.
Likes:
Dislikes:
Patronus:
A bear is the form of her Patronus. Bears are a more familiar animal to her and having them around makes her feel safe, so it’s no surprise that the form is was it is.
Boggart:
Toads. Evil evil things… with large tongues. What’s to like? Nothing. Nothing Eliane runs in fear at the sound of them and just mentioning them makes her shake.

Subjects:
Charms - O
Astronomy - P
Ancient Runes - A
Care of Magical Creatures - O
Report:
Eliane has a wonderful dedication to learning the material so it seems, from all of the detail notes she can be seen taking in class. Whenever she’s stuck on a concept she’ll dedicate herself fully to understanding it and always stays bright about it. There are times when she seems distant during a lesson, but it never terribly effects her grades. (none of her teachers know of her athazagoraphoia, which fuels all of her classroom habits)
Personal Statement:
Her favorite class by far is Charms, but she does have a knack and a strong liking of Care of Magical Creatures and Potions, making them her second and third favorite. She took Astronomy because she thought it was simply, and ended up hating it horribly and finding it uninteresting. It goes without saying that Astronomy was her napping and daydreaming class. She received her highest marks in History of Magic just because of her will not to forget, but that subject was uninteresting to her as well.
Past Grades:

History:
Eliane was a bit of a surprise to her parents, not in terms of conception but rather the time of birth. Dorris spent months plotting and finally talked her husband into visiting France when the baby girl decided she was getting tired of kicking at the inside of her mother’s stomach and bothering her bladder and attempted to make her way out in the world, in spite of her mother’s wish for her to be born in their home.
But to Gregory it happened for a reason, and his little girl was born in the beautiful city of Nates. Though the new parents made their way home as soon as they could so the baby could get use to her home.
Eliane grew up in a normal fashion for a witch born in a muggle town around muggle friendly parents. Not only did she learn about the little quirky traditions of her parents’ world that she love, she got to be apart of an equally quirky and interesting culture. It was hard for her at first, to remember that there were just some things that she couldn’t tell her best friends about, like the self cleaning pots around her house and the chimney that would take her family just about anywhere, but she got use to it and was able to make the change.
A few days after her 11th birthday, when a party was thrown in her backyard involving all of her friends from class and the other families from the neighborhood, she received the owl that her parents were eagerly waiting for (which crashed into the cake and made the girl slightly unwilling to attend Hogwarts for a moment, if they were willing to let an owl destroy her birthday cake). Her letter from Hogwarts was met with a happy reply of acceptance, and she followed along in her brother’s footsteps to the school.
Though she did far better than her brother when it came to school. She took to Hogwarts like a bird to flight and started out great. It was in her 2nd year that she was able to indulge in her love of Quidditch, joining her house’s team while still keeping up with the work she had to do in school. At the end of every year she went home happy and returned the next year happier.
Roleplay Sample:
“So Eliane--”
“Go away! Get a life! Stay away from me!”
Eliane’s hazel eyes narrowed into sharp points aimed at her older brother. He was standing on the other end of her bedroom in her doorframe, giving her a small grin and watching her pack for school. Koko was laying down on his carpet nearby, watching the witch as well. But his stares were welcome. The stares of her dead beat brother who had yet to change out of his pajamas at one in the afternoon were not.
“Why are you still here? Get out!” All of her infamous patience was lost, hands releasing the books she was trying to pack into her faded purple trunk so she could storm across the room to him, giving him a threatening glare. It was met with a loud laugh from Jypson, but when a 5’7” girl was attempting to threaten a 6’3” male it was bound to be a little humorous. Koko barked, rolling over onto his side randomly in the corner. “You’re bothering Koko!” Eliane pointed at the mess of white, untrimmed fur that pearked up when he heard his name.
“I just want to spend a few more hours with my little sister before she leaves.” He smiled innocently, crossing his arms over his chest and kneeling down so they were eye to eyes. “Is there anything so wrong with that?”
Oh, he was up to something, he had to be. They didn’t get along well enough for that to be a valid comment for him. But her eyes were forced over to the clock on her wall and the time. She didn’t have enough of it to continue messing with her brother.
“Fine, I don’t care.” Eliane said, walking back to her bed and picking up her books, loading them in one hand while another went to unfasten the latch on her truck. When she pulled it open, she was greeted by a loud croak, followed by the back of an insanely large toad lifting out of the box.
She let out a shrill scream, dropping her books so she could flee to her door, where her brother waited laughing himself to stitches. “You ass!” Eliane looked at him with wide eyes full of infuriation, barely waiting for him to recover from his laughing before tackling him to the ground. Koko rolled onto his feet and padded over to the fighting siblings, lending his aid to his owner by biting Jypson’s foot.

Social Status:
Fairly Social. Eliane isn’t the most popular girl in her house in terms of having the most friends, but she has enough regular friends and acquaintances to be happily social. She’s always happy to make another acquaintance and elated to have another friend for her small, close circle.
Positive Traits:
- Light-hearted/Looking to the bright side - Eliane tries to keep other’s spirits constantly up by always offering up the sliver lining to their situations.
- Friendly/Welcoming - Eliane is always telling the younger students she’s aquainted with that she’s always open to helping them out, and she’ll always offer up a hi to those she knows.
- Open Minded - Hogwarts is far too large to limit options for relationships, and Eliane is fair to everyone regardless of house, gender, race, etc. When she dislikes someone, it’s because of their personalities refusing to mesh, not where they were born or if their mother was a muggle or not.
- Patient - A trait that she received from her mother (due to her having adopted so many small animals into their home), Eliane takes her time with other people as well as when it comes to learning and forming friendships.
- Loyal - Not to compare her with some odd, over the top tv characer, but once she's made a close friend she's sticking by them through the good, bad, and weird. The only times she's ever gotten into trouble have been the result of following through with one of her friend's crazy plots when asked to or keeping mum about one of their dirty deeds.
Negative Traits:
- Addictive - She’s not currently addicted to anything immoral or illegal, but Elaine is quite aware that she has an addictive personality. She doesn’t drink or smoke just because she knows if she does it once it will be ages before the habit can be kicked again.
- Soft Spoken - No one likes having to strain to hear someone standing two feet away from them or saying ‘huh?’ 14 times during a conversation, but that will happen with Eliane once she gets comfortable with a person.
- Secretive - This can be considered both good and bad, such as a friend needing to confide in her, but to those in her family and close to her that need to know what’s going on, it’s torture.
- Jealously - More than enough times she’s been bitten by the evil bug that leaves her fuming and upset when another peer gets the grade she felt she wanted on a test or a girl gets the attention of a guy she likes. Normally she can keep this trait hidden but there are times when she needs to vent to her friends and lets it all out.
- Can hold a grudge - Even if the girl has ‘made peace’ with someone that did her wrong, she can never forget the event and will bring it back up in bitter battles later down the line. It makes it harder to earn an honest second chance with her.
Skills:
Language. Eliane can pick up other languages quickly and can use them in an almost fluent skill level. She also has a knack for dancing and cooking.
Likes:
- Face painting - It was something her father liked, so he taught it to both of his children. The girl ended up liking it the most and sticking with it.
- Bears - Because who doesn’t love bears? She has a bear at home by the name of Chip-Chu
The color purple - Quidditch - Definitely the greatest sport invented
- Dancing - Her Muggle best friend was a dancer, so she was often forced along to lessons and school dances so they could strut their stuff as a team
Dislikes:
- The number 14 - This one isn’t easy to explain, but mention the number 14 to her and she’ll get shivers and stick out her tongue. This didn’t happen until after she turned 15.
- The color orange - Because it’s her brother’s favorite color
- Ill will towards other - Eliane just feels sympathy towards others and hates when they’re treated unfair for no reason
- Otters - Another one of her brother’s favorites
- Cookies - They just never sat well with her
Patronus:
A bear is the form of her Patronus. Bears are a more familiar animal to her and having them around makes her feel safe, so it’s no surprise that the form is was it is.
Boggart:
Toads. Evil evil things… with large tongues. What’s to like? Nothing. Nothing Eliane runs in fear at the sound of them and just mentioning them makes her shake.
