HAIR & EYES (Hair Ex: Type of cut, style, long or short. Eyes Ex: Alamanded shape, oval shape & so on) Layla has long blonde hair which she usually just lets hang down, and her eyes are a natural bright blue but when she was younger she permanently changed her eye color to a deep brown, which makes her eyes appear black. There are moments when she is in a heightened state of emotion that flecks of her natural eye color start to show.
HEIGHT & WEIGHT 5’9” and she weighs 115lbs.
WHAT DO THEY NORMALLY WEAR Layla wears anything that she can get her hands on for cheap or make herself. She usually just wears her school robes, but she believes in being comfortable and not dressing up. Her wardrobe consists of tight jeans and over-sized t-shirts, most of these have patches sewn into them.
LIKES (Ex: Reading, Potions, Meeting new people, can also be hobbies)meeting new people, helping others secretly, reading, nature, climbing trees, transfiguration, philosophy, swimming, music, exploring or going on adventures, taking risks, martial arts, potions, dark arts
DISLIKES (Ex: Dark Arts, D.E. Members, Muggles, Those that stand against them) history, parties, people who have closed minds, those who get in her way, people who judge others based solely on appearances, failing and falling.
STRANGHTS (Ex: Potions, Dueling, Remembering faces or voices)Layla is really good at remembering places, potions, the dark arts and dueling. She is also good at herbology but rather detests it as a school subject. She is also good at out-smarting others and remembering strange facts about other people. Being a veela she has the ability to entrance people but she prefers to use her personality and intellectual ability rather than her beauty and blood to get what she wants. She is also very good at speaking her mind and fighting (verbally or physically).
WEAKNESS (Ex: Ruins, Dark Arts, Trusting people)She has a really hard time trusting people and with relationships, seeing how she thinks (and has experienced) most people falling for her due to her beauty. She is also horrible with history and exams (soon forgets the material after taking the test). She also has a great fear of falling. She also is very headstrong and this often puts her in a lot of dangerous situations.
BOGGART What do you fear the most? being alone
MIRROR OF ERISED what do you desire the most? Helping others
PATRONUS what animal is your patronus, and why?((Not everyone has to have one & keep in mind not all D.E. have one) Layla doesn’t have a patronus.
PERSONALITYLayla is very headstrong and stubborn. She believes in speaking her mind no matter what, but she often does so in a kind manner. She finds it hard to spend a lot of time with others, secretly fearing her anger will overtake her and her veela blood will start to boil. She does hold a secret love for surprising people and doing things for them (only if she isn’t found out) but when she is recognized for helping and the like she becomes very embarrassed. Layla contemplates life and its meanings frequently and is often found day dreaming outside. When alone she finds it hard to keep her emotions steady, so she keeps herself busy. Layla is free-spirited yet grounded. Determined yet she easily becomes distracted. What she does and how she acts depends on the situation at hand. Being a veela it is easy for her to interact with others, but knowing the effect it has on others she tries to hide her outward self with her strong personality. Layla is a strong believer in that the inner-self is more important than the outer and to prove it she has taken down every single mirror in her rooms and conjured a spell so she can’t see her own reflection (but others still can). She also enjoys spending time with nature and dancing, connecting herself to her ancient roots.
PARENTS & OTHER FAMILYLayla used to live with her aunt (seeing how both her parents died when she was three). Layla also has a twin sister who she never mentions seeing how her sister is cruel, selfish, and spoiled. Her aunt is very much like Layla’s sister.
Wand (Ex: Oak, 13 inch, unicorn hair core)Alder, 16 in, veela hair intertwined with unicorn hair core.
BROOMnone
OTHER POSSESSIONS OR OTHER THINGS YOU WISH TO NOTELayla has a very tiny necklace which holds the ashes of her mother and father. She also wears her mother’s ring (which was passed down from each generation) and is now her possession. (this ring caused Layla’s twin sister to kill Layla’s best friend).
HISTORYLayla grew up on a wealthy estate with her parents until they both tragically died (through unknown causes) when she was three years old. Layla and her twin sister were then sent to live with their Aunt (mother’s sister). Layla was accepted into school with her sister at Beauxbatons Academy of Magic. However, Layla dropped out of the school detesting the environment and attention she got as a full blooded veela. Her twin sister remains at the academy.
Layla is now in her first year as a Hogwart’s student (she was placed in 6th year). Before coming though her long-forgotten relative came and presented the two daughters with their mother’s ring. He said it was to be Layla’s through their parents instruction. Layla’s twin sister detested this (she was born first after all) and proceeded to steal the ring which it burned her hand. Enraged Layla’s twin killed Layla’s best friend and destroyed Layla’s other belongings. Now Layla has severed all ties with her blood family, and even though she was treated horribly (after her parents death) she still loves them very much.
RP SAMPLE. Layla took a deep breath as she looked up at the grounds of Hogwarts, a place she hopped would offer her opportunities and where she would be accepted or rather overlooked as a veela. Wearing her new robes which she had managed to keep intact she walked up towards the great doors and opened them.
