This is Amelia.
She is a very reluctant little first year Gryffindor.
I'm currently working on her bio, but I'll tell you as much as I can (without writing an essay ) right here. I'm eager to do some initial RPing with her because I honestly find her really challenging to write as because she is quite different from myself in key ways, BUT I like a good creative challenge.
So, here we go.
Amelia is the eldest of two, with a brother who is five years younger than her. She was born in Meldorf, Germany and moved to Timaru, NZ with her family when she was five, is fluent in both languages with a very slight German accent when speaking English. Amelia's parents are successful entrepreneurs, and now own a European cafe and aromatherapy store on the beach. Amelia's parents have always pushed her very hard to be the very best, and have been known to be a little controlling and manipulative. As a result, Amelia is currently what you might call a bit of a 'little miss perfect', and that's just the way she likes it. She is a very skilled gymnast and ballerina and had to give up training to attend HNZ, which she currently seriously regrets.
Amelia is very confident for her young age, to the point of coming off as arrogant at times. She is quite self centred and often doesn't consider others' needs and feelings. Deep down all this stems from insecurity that she will never be good enough, never live up to her parents' or her own expectations. But I think that will develop more and come to the surface as she gets older.
But in spite of this, I like to think that when challenged, Amelia would choose to be kind, good and brave.
Currently, Amelia is considering leaving Hogwarts and pursuing her non-magical ambitions, but I think that she will eventually fall in love with magic, she might just need help overcoming her pride to realize it.
So what I'm looking for...
Friends: I'm not quite sure what kind of good friends Amelia will end up with, it's hard to say. It might be someone similar to her- someone ambitious that she can relate to, or maybe someone different who challenges her. So I'd love to RP with anyone at all and see what happens
Mutual dislike: The term 'enemies' doesn't really seem applicable, because I can't really see Amelia hating anyone or showing anyone enough of herself for them to hate her, but I could see her brushing someone up the wrong way on a first meeting or vice versa. Could make for kinda fun RPs?
Mentor type figure: Maybe just someone a little older to help her realize that she's not actually that mature and has quite a bit to learn about the world.
BOYSBOYSBOYS I'm not talking immediate love interest because I think eleven is too young for a real relationship or anything, but it could be fun to set up initial relationships of any sort- friend, mutual dislike, maybe even someone older. And in later years they might have something more. Amelia has always lived in the female dominated sports of ballet and gymnastics so she's not so experienced around boys and they confuse her a bit.
If anyone has any other ideas or characters then throw them at me, I'm open to anything
Thanks if you read this, I really appreciate it!
