OOC First Name
Camilla!
Full Name:
- Astrid Helena Foley

Date of Birth:
- September 17. This makes me a Virgo. It suits me. I like things to be perfect.

Current Age:
- I am eleven years old.

Basic Appearance:
- I have very neatly trimmed dark brown hair that sits just above my shoulders, dark brown eyes, and I always present myself neatly and stylishly. I could never wear an outfit that didn't suit or didn't match. I am 4'10", which I believe is a perfectly reasonably height.

Personality:
- I am very neat and ordered. I have specific ways of doing things and I don't like people to change those ways. I am very quiet and I do not waste my time on fools. I am not mean-spirited, but I do not go out of my way to be kind to others. Only if they are worthy of my time do I bother.

so basically she's a giant stick in the mud.

I don't recall asking for your contributions, Ariadne.

Family:
- I live with my father, Theodore Foley, his new wife Janice, and her daughter Ariadne. My mother was killed when I was very young. I honestly do not recall much about her. My father is very kind, and his new wife seems alright, though I truthfully do not really care. Ariadne, despite being a drama queen and incredibly poorly behaved, is a good friend, even if her lack of order does infuriate me at times. She helps me to be less highly-strung, and I stop her from lashing out at people needlessly.

Pets:
- I do not have a pet of my own - the apartment my father and I used to live in did not allow pets - but I would like a cat, perhaps, when I go to Hogwarts. Cats are very clean and self-reliant, though they can show affection to those they trust if they feel like it.

Area of Residence:
- Queenstown, New Zealand. It is very quiet and a tad on the boring side, but I am able to keep myself occupied rather well. My father and I have travelled all over, so actually being able to settle in to a home and routine is a wonderful change.

Blood Status:
- Half-blood. My mother was a muggle-born, my father is a wizard, and he comes from a predominantly magical family. I am not sure how many generations it goes back, I believe it's four.

Heritage:
- I was born in Holland, though my parents were both British citizens who were educated at Hogwarts. They loved to travel, and so it was that they were staying in Amsterdam when I was born. My mother was killed by Death Eaters approximately a year later, in Bulgaria. Since then, my father and I travelled all around the world - Europe, the United States...the list goes on. There has been a significant lack of order in my life, which rather disturbs me. It was in New Zealand where my father met my step-mother, and luckily, since they married, he has not wanted to move, and I have been able to install routine in to my day to day life. Knowing I will attend Hogwarts New Zealand is even better. I love the perfect order of a reputable institution. It's incredibly reassuring.

Special Abilities:
- None, unfortunately.

Interests or Hobbies:
- I like reading and playing chess. Any strategy game, really - finding flaws and plotting things out to perfection is something I very much enjoy.

Additional Skills:
- I'm a decent cook, because I always follow a recipe to precision and never make any mistakes. Mistakes are the bane of my existence. As such, I am looking forward to Potions.

Strengths:
- I'm always on time, always very neat. I will do things exactly as directed and I plan things to the absolute last detail. I'm also good at handling people like Ariadne. And I'm determined do to everything perfectly.

Weaknesses:
- Weaknesses? Well, I...

you're stuck up and full of yourself and obsessive-compulsive at times and you can't deal with being spontaneous, and you're booooooooring!

Ariadne, if you don't want me to intrude on you, the least you could do is not mess up my answers.

Describe your character in three words:
- Precise, confident, orderly.

Favourite place to be:
- I like libraries. As long as the books are in the correct order. I can not stand to see a single book out of place.

Friends:
- Well, I have Ariadne, that's a start. Otherwise, I will not waste my time on people who aren't worth it.

Hogwarts House:
- No idea. I would like to be in Ravenclaw or Slytherin.

Hogwarts Hopes and Ambitions:
- To do as well as I possibly can. I will accept no less than perfection from myself.

Plans for your future:
- I am not sure as yet, which rather irks me. Perhaps a role in the Ministry, where I can make sure everything runs smoothly and orderly.

Your Patronus:
- A cat, of course.

Your Patronus memory:
- When I found out I would be settling in New Zealand and attending the Hogwarts there. I nearly cried in joy.

Your Boggart:
- ...spiders. Particuarly the acromantula. Luckily, Ariadne doesn't threaten me with that tarantula of hers too often.

Your Animagus:
- I am not certain. Perhaps also a cat.

Mirror of Erised:
- Myself, looking neat and fashionable, having everything I could need or want.

In other words, a perfect life.
