-Part Two-
:Your Character:
Name: Asteria Lavinia Greengrass
Age/D.O.B: June 24, 1994
House & Year: Third Year Slytherin
Lineage: Pureblood
Family: Her father is Eldius Greengrass, an older pureblood male; he is nearing his sixties. He works at the ministry in the Department of International Magical Cooperation, a job that keeps him constantly busy and often away from the home and on business trips. He tends to be rather absent, but never fails to spoil his two daughters whenever he can, whether it be through 'exotic' presents from around the wizarding world or smothering them with affection whenever they do all find themselves at home. Her mother is Lysandra Greengrass, nee Rosier, and is in her forties (or has been thirty for the past fifteen years). She runs an odds and ends shop in Knockturn Alley that has been in the Rosier family for decades. She is hardly ever found there, rather pays two younger wizards to manage the shop in her stead. When she is not at the shop, which is the majority of her time, she is making appearances at any number of Pureblood Society events. Asteria also has an older sister, Daphne.
Many of the men on her mother's side are either currently in service to the Dark Lord or have died in service to him. her father, himself, is not a Death Eater, but her family does support keeping magic in its rightful bloodlines.
Personality:
Asteria can be definitely described as an overachiever. She strives to be the top of her class, and usually manages to do so. She is involved in all of the clubs on campus and is the president of the Weird Sisters fan club. When not at Hogwarts, she joins her mum at all of the social events in Britain, a pastime that will surely breed her into the epitome of a fine pureblood woman. She is meticulous in all aspects of her life. Her uniform is always neatly pressed and worn exactly the way it should be and her notes are always completely organized, as is her school trunk and any additional belongings.
While she possesses many attributes of a Ravenclaw or Hufflepuff, she is most assuredly a Slytherin. She is not the type to vengefully hex a classmate in the halls, rather she will plot on her own to devise a scheme to make you wish you'd never crossed her path; that is, if you knew it was she who had punished you. She is the type of girl that everyone loves but secretly hates. She can easily flit between social groups, though her closest friends would know that her association with anyone less than pureblood would be more of a charity case than an act of kindness.
Though she seems to be perfect with just a glance, she does have her flaws, they are just far less public than her shining attributes. She excessively bites her nails when she is anxious. She has no control over her temper. She is extremely self-conscious- often times checking her reflection obsessively- despite her outward abundance of confidence and she is extremely prone to stress. She could very well be considered a Type A personality. Aside from all of that, she is a lot of fun to be around. She and her girlfriends have been known to throw many a scandalous sleepover (scandalous for a thirteen year old, mind you) and she does know how to take risks. She also knows how not to get caught. She has not yet had one detention and she does not plan on having one during her entire Hogwarts career.
Physical Appearance: Asteria stands at about 5'4 currently and is still slowly growing. She has longish blonde hair and blue eyes. She is not particularly fashionable when at school but is never seen in anything less than society's best when out of school. She usually wears her hair down.
Avatar choice: Taylor Momsen
Character History: Nothing really worth mentioning aside from what was already mentioned in her family and personality. She has lived a typical pureblood childhood.
Deviations from Canon?: Er, none?
Other:
She has a black cat named Hexeba that roams the common room at all hours.
She likes to twirl the end of her hair absent-mindedly.
She is addicted to lip gloss.
Short RP Sample
(a minimum of a 200 words, in the same style you will be RPing in):
*Asteria walked swiftly through the corridors, silently commanding all those in her way to step aside to let her through. It was the first Weird Sisters' Fan Club meeting of the term and she, as the leader, was not about to be late to it because some hooligan mudblood had decided to block her path with shenanigans. Of course, the fact that it had taken her two hours after lunch to get ready for the meeting had nothing to do with whether or not she would be on time. She had been certain that every item in her wardrobe made her look ten pounds heavier and unkempt. Now, as she walked, nearly smirking, she glanced around, taking pride in the fact that her posse of girls were a step behind her. She was never able to go anywhere without them hot on her heels. She was born for this; born for the spotlight and to be a leader in her society. It was only a matter of time before she took pug-faced Parkinson's place as the supposed Queen Bee.
As she reached the designated classroom- Professor Flitwick had allowed her to use his classroom as the official meeting place- she pushed open the doors and smiled as the buzzing room fell silent. All heads turned toward her as she walked meaningfully to the front of the room and called all her audience to attention. She pursed her lips in a smiled and dabbed a bit of gloss she'd had in the pocket of her robes onto her lips before continuing. She looked out at the many faces that had gathered for the meeting. They all looked back at her with a mixture of adoration, admiration and envy. For a thirteen year old, she sure did know how to stand out among the best.
She pulled from her neatly organized bag a bundle of parchments which she instructed her girls to pass out to the new members and moved on to the first order of business- fan mail- as they did so. With any luck, Asteria's club would finally be named the official Weird Sisters' fan club this year. That was her goal anyway. And when Asteria had a goal, you could rest assured that she would undoubtedly achieve it.*
