Teagan Wilson - Seventh Year
Note:I used a bit of a different character outline.Tell me if you don't get everything you need-I'm willing to add^^.I just thought I could get more in this way,but as I said before,if you don't like it.I'll gladly change it.
Eveything I changed is in Maroon,so you don't have to read everything again if you don't want too.
-Character Information-
Character’s Name:Teagan Farrah Wilson
Nickname(s):Tea (Sounds like Tay)
Age:17
Year:7th
Blood:Muggle Born
Wand:14 1/2 in,Willow,Dragon Heart String
Pet:Black and white cat named Saylem (Goes by Say)
House:Gryffindor
Why? Because her past was not an easy one to cope with and yet she shows bravery though all the hard times.She stands up for what she believes is right,even if it costs her something in the long run.(or someone else something...)
Appearance:Long wavy blonde hair,deep doe brown eyes,fair skin,5'5,shaped slim build.But to Teagan,when she takes the time to look in the mirror, her hair is a little to stringy,a little to blonde,a little to long.Her body isn't as filled out in all the right places like all the other 7th year girl's,and her eyes stare back like a still muddy lake bottom.She often asks herself why she can't be half,no a forth, as good looking as that nice red headed girl.Was her name Lily Evans?Then maybe she'd talk to Remus a little more.Get to know him,even.But then she just thinks it's all over rated anyway.Why bother.
Personality:Teagan is outgoing,if she knows you.If not,don't expect her to be so open.She's a rather shy,quite person,whom enjoys reading almost as much as breathing.(She would gladly give up the later for a book.)She's a nice girl,kind to others,and smart to say the least.
However being forgiving seems to hurt her more then anything.Its one of her biggest flaws,coming second only to her anger.Once you get her started there isn't much that will keep her from hexing you so good,your great grandmother will feel it.But what can you expect really,she grew up with two brothers.
Once when in her first year,Teagan made the horrid mistake of letting that temper go for a few minutes.One of the Ravenclaw girls had been bothering her about a paper she'd turned in.Saying things like,"You really should have been in Ravenclaw House,Tea.Oh but wait,you /are/ brave aren't you.With no friends and no family,you must really stand up to herself.Otherwise,you couldn't stand yourself."Then with a snicker the girl added,"I can see why your parents ended up in the ground."With that Teagan blew her top.She was so angery,she dropped her wand and went after the girl throwing punchs this way and that.
An hour later Teagan lay in the hospital wing.The girl /had/ friends,Teagan hadn't banked on that.Being wandless,she'd just begged for a jinx or two.And she got them.(But not before landing a few punchs to the girl's chin.She had a nice shiner for that one.)
She's grown use to being an 'out cast' and longs for someone she can talk too.She's had a slight 'crush' on Remus Lupin since her first year,but has yet to act on it.He seems to understand other people's problems.After all he looks as though he's got a few himself.Teagan has bumped into him a few times in the hall way coming to and from the library,speaking a few words here and there.
Important Relationships:Mother and Father were both killed severl years ago.She now lives with an aunt in Muggle London.She has two siblings,Camron and Jordan.Both of whom live in Scottland.
Likes:School,books,writing in her journal,spending hours helping the younger years in the Library,& sweets.
Dislikes:Being picked on,people who put muggle borns down,peas,being cold,storms(one of biggest fears),most of the time herself,& buses.
History:After her mother and father were both killed in a bus crash while visiting a friend in New York City.Teagan was shipped from Scottland to London-to live with an aunt she hates.Her brothers were willing to take her,but alas it was willed for her to live with her father's sister.The courts refused to look into it farther.
Her aunt is a middle class woman living in the middle of London,never having to raise a child,she looks at Teagan very much like a burden.And a heavy one at that.Since Teagan was ten she has lived in the same yellow-green house,with the same second story bedroom,and the same all-to-ready-for-her-to-leave aunt.
Teagan wasn't very happy when she received her Hogwarts letter.But decided to go when she thought, 'what better way to get away from her aunt then go to a school where your gone for all but the summer.'For the last seven years thats what Teagan's done.Went to school,read,stayed away from her aunt,and prayed for something or somebody to take her away from the life she lives.
Roleplay Sample:Mindlessly turning a strand of long blonde hair around her finger,Teagan turned another page of her book.The day seemed perfect to be out-and-about,but the young looking girl's heart just wasn't in that.As of now,it was in the book that lay across her knees.The edges of the pages flipping up slightly as the wind caught them.
The sun was shining like it hadn't shone in days and to keep from missing all the beautiful day had to offer,Teagan had taken her reading out for the afternoon.Now she sat,knees drawn up to her chest to see the words clearer,holding a book she'd gotten yesterday in the huge Hogwarts Libraray.
She wiped a few stray strands of golden hair from her face,as her soft doe-brown eyes moved from line to line.Yes,here by the lake was the prefect place to just sit back and take off a load.
))Sorry it was short,I was a bit long winded with everything else.....Also my spell check isn't working,sorry.I'll try to do better with any words I misspelled.(( Edited by: Teagan Farrah at: 8/8/05 15:06
First of all, welcome to the RP. It's always good to see new faces
Your layoput for your character was good, but don't be offended if me or Dru change it round a little to fit with our layout. I for one, am anal about things like having all the layouts the same ... strange I know.
Teagan looks like a good character. The only question I would have is that she needs more flaws. No person can be perfect ... and Teagan seems just a touch Mary-Sue-ish ... pretty, nice, smart etc etc. However, I do like the fact she has a temper ... but what sort of things has she done with her bad temper?? Does she regret any of them, for example?Is there anything she doesn't like about her own appearance??
Sorry to be so picky ... but we like flaws here ... makes the RP a little more 'real'. Saying that, I like your RP sample, you write very descriptively . Just need to work on those flaws, expand them out a little bit ...

Re: Teagan Wilson - Seventh Year
Ah,yes I knew that was coming.I knew I needed something else last night when I made her up,but for some reason I was having trouble.But I'll change a few things and see how you like it.I have a few more flaws in mind for her.
Re: Teagan Wilson - Seventh Year
ok...is there any chance that you'd be willing to try out for a main part - i want to get main characters filled before i put OC's in.
Secondly...it's good, but it's rather...harry-potter...the whole 'orphan with a unhappy childhood' thing is overdone these days, and everyone uses it for angst value.
Other than that...yes, good, but again main character really need to be filled first.
