Eliza Richardson, 7th Year, GryffindorName: Eliza Moreen Richardson Age: 17 Year: 7 House: Gryffindor Other: She is good at Charms, something she inherited from her mother.
Description: Eliza's straight black hair falls just under her shoulders. It is usually pulled back out of her face into a simple ponytail with a dark blue or bronze hair tie that stands out against her hair. She has jade green eyes, which she received from her mother, and pouty, full lips, also from her mother. Her nose(which happens to be her least favorite feature) is narrow and rounded at the end. She does not, to her almost displeasure, have an hourglass figure, and is rather stick-like, a trait ,her mother says, from her father's side of the family. She is tall, and thin and her skin is slightly tanned.
Her uniform can be found in two different ways, and it usually depends on if she slept in, or not. She relies on her roommate’s hustle and bustle to wake her as an alarm clock is not loud enough to reach her out of her sleep. Half the time she can be seen rushing into the Great Hall for breakfast two minutes before class begins, only to grab a bagel and run.
Personality: Eliza is quiet and a tad shy, quite different from most of her loud and boisterous Gryffindor peers. She has always thought that the Sorting Hat was out of its mind when it sorted her into Gryffindor as she sea’s no resemblance between her and the other Gryffindors. She will rarely call attention to herself, except in a classroom, where she will gladly answer a question. She is smart, but not smart enough to be in the top ten students. But she is loyal to those she calls family and those she calls friends.
Eliza is a watcher, she knows a lot of what goes on in the school. She makes it a point to know everyone by sight at least, and hopefully by name, though she usually will not go as far as to actually talk to the person.
Likes: Books, The smell of libraries and new cars, Cheese sticks, and Macaroni and cheese
Dislikes: Waking up early, people who talk behind her back, people picking on others, The dark, attics, under her bed
Family History: Eliza's parents like to think they are purebloods. Yet, they, and Eliza, know for a fact that they are not. They still like to fool themselves though. Both of her parents are in a sense half-bloods, and both Moreen and Joseph were Slytherins.
Eliza was never truly raised by her parents, they provided a roof over her head, and food on the table, and things to keep her occupied, but they never instilled their values and morals(not that they really had any) on her. The job of truly raising her was given to her Nanny, Sarah, and her butler Jacob (Whom both, had morals and values). Eliza guesses that this is why she was sorted into Gryffindor instead of Slytherin, if she had her parents raise her, she most likely would have been a Slytherin.
When she turned eleven, she was happy, as any child would be, to get her letter. Her parents though reacted with no joy, or true happiness. She was excited to go to Hogwarts, but because of living with her parents, Jacob, and Sarah, (lets not forget Dory the house elf) She had not had any social interaction for most of her life and because of this was quickly silence by all the other children. She quickly wrote home in the first week of school, telling her parents that she had been sorted into Gryffindor, expecting them to be happy for her. The next day she was met with a loud howler that berated her and led her to tears for being a ‘lousy, no good, stupid, Gryffindor’. Her already shy personality grew dangerously to the point where she would only speak in class or if prompted by someone.
Eliza has basically cut herself off from her parents, and never speaks to them unless it’s a necessity, the only being she will truly speak to, is Hurricane, her cat.
Social History: When spoken too, Eliza is at first very shy and a bit unsocial. She has no real friends, just those she knows the name of and her year and house mates. She is polite, and will never turn a conversation away, but is a bit awed at being spoken too. Despite the years of shyness, once you get her started on a subject she knows she is rather easy to talk to.
She does know her fellow Gryffindors, though she never really seems to talk to them. She can spend hours in the common room, watching them act out their lives as if she is just a spectator. She loves to watch the Marauders in particular, they always seem to make her grin, and James and Lily’s fights are always entertaining. Her favorite Gryffindor though she would never admit it, would have to be Remus Lupin, for a few reasons. The main being that he has a secret that she does not know, he is not too loud, and he is polite, a quality becoming increasingly rare.
N.E.W.T subjects: Charms, Transfiguration, Potions, History of Magic, Ancient Runes, Arithmancy
RP Sample:
Eliza
Eliza paused as she started down the steps of the girls’ dorms. She lightly ran her hand over the smooth handrail and turned to go back up the stairs. Eliza had always felt that the stairs had been used for formal entrances and had always wanted to come down as if she were an esteemed guest, waving to the crowd.
She paused once again as she checked to make sure that there was no one in the common room to see her silliness and then began to proceed. She made sure to wave correctly and walk with a straight back, holding her head up high. Eliza reached the bottom of the steps and smiled, letting out a small giggle as she stared up at the steps. She finally moved to go get her books back from the top stair when she heard something from behind. She whirled around.
“W-Who’s there?” She whispered, realizing that they had seen her act so foolishly. A blush began to grace her features
Other: She has a crush on Remus you could say, but I really really dont have the time right now(supposed to be asleep and hour ago) to ask the person who rps him (Melmo1313.. right?)if it's okay or not so... Edited by: brknhallelujah at: 12/10/05 19:36
Re: Eliza Richardson, 7th Year, Gryffindor
mkay, i'll take out the cat thing. And I figured after reading his profile that he wouldnt want a girlfriend, but its like that in the real world, so why not in the magical world too?
Re: Eliza Richardson, 7th Year, Gryffindor
lmao....uh *grins at mel* hey, tasha didnt MEAN to react badly :P and...yes, thats true...he might not want one, but he might end up with one...however, trust me when i say that theres competition for Remus - everyone loves him!
anyway...yes...good profile.....yes im sorry, i am late with this...uni life is still new to me, work is crazy and though my social life is not 'go out and get pissed' it does involve me bouncing around various peoples flats, and generally watching lots of anime....hence, me not always being online or inclined to check the boards when i am. So, this RP might well have to go the way of the Dodo if i cant sort myself out...im sorry.
However, if you want to do an audition thread, then go ahead and i will try my best to get on and approve it....
*looks pitiful* damnit...i've got a cooold and my throat is all tickley...*floops*
