Post by Ashley on Sept 6, 2003 13:39:13 GMT -5
((Except for one student teacher. :P LOL))
Name: Ashley Katrina Hood
Age: 27
Height: 5' 3"
Weight: 200
Race/Species: Human/Witch
Eyes: Moldy Green
Hair: Blond
House: Gryffindor
Wand: Ash with a unicorn tail hair, 11 and ½ inches.
Special Skills: singing, gardening/Herbology, potions (as good as potions as an advanced 3rd year even though she's a first year).
Appearance: Short, overweight, always keeps her hair neatly braided, her eyes may be the color of green mold but they're still beautiful. Pale pink skin.
History:
American born Ashley ended up in Hogwarts due to her parents. Not because they wanted their daughter to have the best education, but because they hated the fact she was a witch.
Born to techincally pure blood families (though as Ashley often points out all families have at least one muggle or muggle born ancesstor) both of Ashley's parents were squibs. Jealous of their brothers and sisters's magic. Bonnie Munchasen, Ashley's mother, first married a muggle man and had three muggle sons. But he started beating her and eventually left her for a younger woman - a witch at that. She met Richard Hood on a blind date and neither told the other the truth. So they married and soon were expecting their first child. When Ashley was born her father fainted at the sight of her eyes. Her mother screamed at the sight of Ashley's hair.
You see, only those Hoods capable of magic were born with moldy green colored eyes. Only Munchasens with magic in them had blond hair.
Ashley shared other traits of her magical heritage - Like the Gitlins on her mother's side of the family, Ashley has a severe allergy to pork and consuming it makes her very, very ill. Like the MacFarllens on her father's side, she has a talent for singing. She's very pleasant to listen to. She bares a bat-shaped birthmark on her right forearm from a family blood line she doesn't even know about (or maybe it's just a birthmark, only one who'd really know for sure is Dumbledore because he seems to know everything). A head for potions and anything related to them (like Herbology since plants are a main part of potions).
So it was no surprise to Ashley's parents that weird things happened when she was upset. Things caught on fire, or exploded, but all were covered up by her magic-hating parents. They kept making excuses, hiding Ashley's heritage from her. The American MOM kept sending them letters, but they ignored them or sent back nasty replies about how their daughter didn't practice witchcraft and they wished to be left alone. When the invitation for Hedwig's showed up Ashley's mom wrote back, pretending to be Ashley, saying she thought magic was evil and to never bother her again. Both parents continued to intercepted owls and did their best to keep Ashley under their thumb and unmarried so she'd never find out the truth. Right down to forcing her to gain weight so men would not show interest in her.
But by the time she was old enough to go to a magic school, her aunts and uncles finally put their collective feet down. Finally her parents said she could go - if she left the country and never bothered them again. So Ashley was sent to live with her cousin Lord John Hood (formally Hufflepuff) and his wife Lady Myrtle Hood (formally Slytherin) and go to Hogwarts.
These were the years when Voldermort was growing stronger. Ashley, ever defiant and American refused even as the age of 12 to be scared of the wizard she dubbed "Moldy Voldy." But just a month before she was suppose to go back for her 3rd year Death Eaters came to her home. Lord John Hood was killed and his wife barely left alive after being tortured. One of the Death Eaters turned to kill Ashley as well, but another stepped in. Though her parents were squibs she was techincally a pureblood and they would need pureblood females capable of breeding this Death Eater reminded the other. So she was left alive. Saved by a Death Eater.
She started her 3rd year in great saddness. But worse was the new potions teacher, Severus Snape, who seemed to hate his most gifted student. However Ashley reconized those eyes and kept her mouth shut. As the years passed her hatred for Snape turned into something else - something she refuses to aknowledge.
Finally Ashley graduated. She went back to America briefly to be a student potions teacher, but missed England so much she returned. Though she couldn't be a potions teacher, she accepted a possistion at student Defense Against The Dark Arts teacher and currently works under Remus Lupin.
Ashley has a secret though. Her cousin, Lady Hood, arranged a marriage for her with a very disgusting pureblood named Alaric Wormwort. In fact Ashley went to America to avoid marrying him. It states in the contract which is magic and completely unbreakable except by death of one of the parties that Alaric can beat Ashley into obeying. For Myrtle Hood was always secretly on Voldermort's side - which is why she lived that night. Ashley has refused to go through with the marriage even though it means she can never marry or have children with anyone. She explains her occastional bruises away but some are not fooled. They see that the bruises only appear after she's had an unwanted and private meeting with Alaric Wormwort....

Name- Nymphadora (but only her mother ever called her that)
Age- 22
Race/Species- Metamorphmagus
Appearance- Being a metamorphmagus, Tonks can change her appearance at will. She is often seen with short, spiky, neon colored hair and dark eyes.
Build- Thin and fairly tall, with pale skin and a heart shaped face.
Occupation- Auror. She recently passed her acceptance test after nearly failing in Stealth and Tracking due to her clumsy-ness. She got top marks in Concealment and Disguise, however, thanks to being a metamorphmagus.
Nickname- Tonks (dont call her Nymphadora, unless you're trying to make her mad)
Family- She's a halfblood, her mother Andromeda being a witch, and her father Ted being a muggle. She's related to Sirius Black, though he's the only decent relative she has (in her opinion), besides her immediate family.
Other facts- she is dead clumsy
School history- While attending Hogwarts, she managed to get enough OWLS and NEWTS to be accepted into auror training. She was never made a prefect as most teachers believed she needed to exert more self discipline.

Albus Dumbledore Albus Percival Wulfric Brian Dumbledore
((age))150 in book#1
((Character description excerpt)) "He was tall, thin, and very old, judging by the silver of his hair and beard, which were both long enough to tuck into his belt. He was wearing long robes, a purple cloak that swept the ground, and high-heeled, buckled boots. His blue eyes were light, bright, and sparkling behind half-moon spectacles and his nose was very long and crooked, as though it had been broken at least twice" (SS, pg.1).
((Biography))
According to his Chocolate Frogs trading card, "Considered by many the greatest wizard of modern times, Dumbledore is particularly famous for his defeat of the dark wizard Grindelwald in 1945, for the discovery of the twelve uses of dragon's blood, and his work on alchemy with his partner, Nicolas Flamel. Professor Dumbledore enjoys chamber music and tenpin bowling."
Dumbledore has close ties to the Potters, mainly with James and Lily Potter. Even with the knowledge that James and his friends would cause mischief, he still admired their intellect in anything they got involved in. Dumbledore is known also, in part, because of his great generosity, whether it be hiring a reformed Death Eater, a giant, or even a werewolf as a teacher. And despite one of James' friends, Remus Lupin being a werewolf, Dumbledore still admitted him. To deal with his transformations, Dumbledore built a secret tunnel under the school, which lead to a small, broken-down house, called the Shrieking Shack, where he could transform safely.
Before his years of becoming headmaster, Dumbledore was originally the Transfiguration professor, before McGonagall. He was also mindful of Tom Riddle, possibly because of the his fascination with the dark arts, though the specific reason has yet to be explained in full.
