CARINE
French form of Carina. It can also function as a short form of Catherine, via Swedish Karin. Carina is a Late Latin name derived from cara meaning "dear, beloved". This was the name of a 4th-century saint and martyr. It is also the name of a constellation in the southern sky, though in this case it means "keel" in Latin, referring to a part of Jason's ship the Argo (from behindthename).

ELVIRE
French form of Elvira, which is a Spanish form of a Visigothic name, possibly composed of the Germanic elements ala "all" and wer "true". This is the name of a character in Mozart's opera Don Giovanni (1787) (from behindthename).

VALE
Means "valley" in Portuguese, ultimately from Latin vallis. Topographic name for someone who lived in a valley, Middle English vale (Old French val, from Latin vallis). The surname is now also common in Ireland, where it has been Gaelicized as de Bhál (from behindthename).

BIRTHDAY
Carine was born on April 30, 2017 in Paris, France. She is the first daughter to her parents and the eldest of four, with three younger sisters. Her star sign is Taurus.

RESIDENCE
Carine currently lives with her husband and children in an old farm house in rural New Zealand. The house is historical and has a lot of character and is rumored to be haunted, and this was one of the reasons Carine was initially drawn to the house when looking to purchase a property. The house does appear to be in some level of disrepair on the outside but is well decorated and taken care of by magic on the inside and Carine in every way considers the house to be her permanent home. The house accommodates her, her husband, their three children and her bother in law, and has a significant amount of land around and a vast garden which Carine uses to grow flowers and potions ingredients.

PARENTS
Mathilde and William Duval. Carine has a positive relationship with both of her parents, and from her father developed her love of knowledge and from her mother learned manners and etiquette. Carine did grow up with certain expectations from her parents to make them proud and also to marry into money and into another magical family, but she does not let their expectations of her worry her as she is happy with herself. She stays in contact with both her parents regularly and wants her children to be close to their grandparents.

EDUCATION
Carine attended Beauxbatons for the entirety of her magical education, and this is following the legacy of her mother and other members of her family. From the beginning of her schooling she dove into her subjects and this lasted until she graduated with her grades being some of the best grades in her year. Carine thinks of her time at school as positive due to how much she had learned, even if being social and making friends wasn't always her top priority.

PROFESSION
Due to her family being wealthy, Carine has never had to work a day in her life, however despite this has always been learning and studying. If she had to give herself a profession outside of being a mother she would say she is an academic, as she has spent her life learning and experimenting and understanding different kinds of magic. She is knowledgeable in many subjects and has considered teaching outside of teaching her children but is too distracted by her constant studying to pursue it as a career.

WAND
Curved 9 Inch Rigid Ebony Wand with Augurey Tail Feather Core
  • Length: On the shorter side of things, this wand offers excellent control and aim - easily an extension of one's own arm.
  • Style: Bending to its side, this wand is more difficult to aim than its straighter counterparts but provides character that some simply cannot pass by.
  • Wood: Ebony wands choose a wizard or witch who could easily be seen as an outsider, but continues to dare to be themselves. The owner of an ebony wand is not easily moved from their purpose: whether that be good, evil, or something perhaps a little more grey.
  • Core: Since so many wizards are afraid to go near Augureys due to their association as ‘omens of death,’ Augurey tail feathers are rare as wand cores. They are good for use in divination work.
  • Flexibility: Rigid: A difficult wand to control and sometimes broken under little force, but powerful in a fight.
(from Ollivander's wand shop descriptions).

BLOOD STATUS
Mixed Blood. Carine understands she is of mixed magical heritage, and understands the magical heritage in her family tree due to her family keeping detailed records. There is some blood prejudice in her family and her parents did expect Carine to marry into magic in some form to continue the magical line but Carine herself does not hold any particular prejudices in regards to blood status.




APPEARANCE;
in the sun‚ it's still dark‚ like it always rains, she don't feel the same, she don't have the time of day
and I wait, and I wait, and I wait, and I wait‚ and I wait, and I wait, and I wait for her


BUILD
Carine is on the taller side and has always had a slim build. She is confident in herself and her body and is not afraid to accentuate her slimness and height in her manner of dressing, and she likes the way her body looks.

STYLE
Carine's style can be considered on the darker side. She is drawn to magical and traditional and old fashioned styles over more modern pieces, although if she finds an interesting piece of muggle clothing she is not afraid to wear it and show it off if it matches her style. Carine favors dark colours and patterns, and loves to play with shape and textures in her clothing and she often is seen wearing black and alternating with different silhouettes both to accentuate her appearance and put an interesting spin on an otherwise traditional or bland outfit. Carine loves to buy vintage and historical clothing and give them new life, and on an everyday basis loves wearing traditional and old robes which she has altered to show her figure and accessorized to give her own unique twist. For a formal occasion she goes all out with her dressing, loving the opportunity to wear dark and opulent gowns to show her style and her family's wealth.

EYE COLOUR
Carine's eyes are dark green and this is a trait she shares with one of her other sisters and their father. Carine does not think too much about her eye colour but she is happy to see the colour in the eyes of her family members.

HAIR
Carine's hair is a very dark brown, almost black and she keeps her hair long and past her shoulders. She alternates between parting her hair in the middle and to the side, and styling it in different ways depending on what matches her outfit that day or for the occasion she is dressing for. Generally Carine keeps her hair long and flowy with a curl to it, although when she is experimenting with potions and caught up in her research she does tie her hair up and away from her face. She sees her hair style as an extension of herself and when her hair is styled well she feels confident and as if she can handle anything so she is rarely seen without her hair being well done in whatever style it is in.



MISCELLANEOUS;
i don't care what you say, no, i don't care what you do, i'm going to the darkside with you
she's a girl, I look back to what could have been, her cloak and dagger, mouth tastes like medicine


ORIENTATIONS
Carine identifies as Pansexual and Panromantic. She has realised rather than being attracted to any particular gender identity, she is attracted to a person because of their personality and mind as opposed to anything else, and regardless of their identity. She is open about her orientations to her family and has taught her children that love is what matters over everything else, and she is supportive and understanding of the LGBT+ community.

RELATIONSHIP STATUS
Carine is currently happily married to Yves Vale. She met him when she was in her early twenties and it was love at first sight, and she has been completely in love ever since. She considers her husband to be her soul mate and does not ever consider being with someone else, and she wants nothing more than to grow old and spent eternity with her husband.

BOGGART
Carine's biggest fear is losing her knowledge and the life she has built, so if she encountered a boggart it would show as either a book or a framed picture of her family burning to ashes by fire. When casting Riddikulus the fire would then subside and the picture or book would slowly repair itself and this image would comfort Carine, as it would show that even if her knowledge or family face troubles they can come back to life with the right circumstances.

PATRONUS
Carine's full bodied patronus appears as a Crow. Crows are some of the most intelligent species of bird and have a lot of charisma despite being known as common throughout the world. Crows have the ability to remember faces and solve problems due to their intellect. This and the fact that Crows are seen as omens of death in mythology and commonly misunderstood is the reason Carine would feel both comforted and proud to have her patronus appear as a crow. Her patronus memory would be the day her youngest child was born, as this event followed by the return of her husband's long lost brother was the time she felt her family was fully whole and she had he life she had always wanted.

MIRROR OF ERISED
If Carine looked into the mirror of Erised she would see her herself along with her husband surrounded by books, growing old and pass away together, to be together for all eternity. She would also see her children growing up to be happy and successful in whatever life they choose for themselves. This is Carine's innermost desire, to be both surrounded by knowledge and to see herself grow old with the love of her life and to see her children grow up to be happy, so this the image she would see in the mirror.

LANGUAGES
Carine speaks both fluent French and English, with French being her first language. She learned English at home throughout her childhood and adolescence and is confident in speaking English as much as she is with French. Over the years due to her interest in old magical texts and tomes she has also learned to read and understand Latin and is attempting to understand various other ancient languages as she learns and reads more historical documentation.



PERSONALITY;
she won't last the night, spun out in the neon light, you would leave, but you need me to numb the pain
you're possessed and you slept through another day, you don't feel the same, I don't have the strength to stay


INTERESTS AND HOBBIES
Carine has always been interested in the dark, the deluded and the controversial in most aspects of life, but especially in regards to magic. She from a young age has loved reading about magical history and the history of dark magic and dark wizards who have been aided by the use of dark magic, and this is an interest that she still maintains in her adulthood. Carine loves potion making and cultivating potions ingredients and she enjoys experimenting with potions and their effects. She has a series of journals she scribbles in whenever she discovers a new effect caused by a particular set of ingredients and loves to discover new uses for things, even if it is unconventional. Carine loves reading old books and old magical texts and tomes, has an extensive book collection and home library, and also loves collecting various magical antiquities which she displays proudly around the house. Carine is interested in divination as well of course, and loves to study divination and complete divination rituals and readings whenever she has a question she needs answered, or when her family has a question or problem that requires guidance and problem solving. There are many subjects Carine has extensive knowledge of from her constant reading and collecting of books, and knows a lot about various uses for magic even outside of her main interests. Learning is by far Carine's biggest interest and hobby for her entire life and she always wants to learn and expand her knowledge of magic and the world around her.

STRENGTHS
Carine when she cares about something, is endlessly devoted and dedicated. This shows in both her devotion and dedication to her studies of magic and her relationship with her husband and her family. She will support and dedicate herself to her family for as long as she lives and her family can always trust and rely on her to help and guide them. Carine is affectionate openly with her family and her children, showing she loves them and is particularly open in her affections to her husband, wanting both the world and the household to know how in love and completely enamored she is. Carine wants her children to find the same feeling of love when they are older whether it be in a relationship or a pursuit of knowledge or anything else and she wants to be an example of the best that love can bring a person. Carine is trustworthy and loyal, and can be relied on to keep a secret as well, and if someone tells her something in confidence she would rather die than tell another without permission. Carine is confident and sure of herself, embraces herself and is unashamed in expressing herself and who she is, and she embraces the people around her as well to be their honest selves and proud of who they are.

WEAKNESSES
Carine in her dedication and devotion in learning can become rather one track minded, and unable to focus on anything else at times, which causes her to spend days distracted by her learning and experimenting with magic and forget to take care of herself. Similarly she can be standoffish and distant both when something has distracted her and very often in social situations, where she prefers to be observing others from the corner of a room. She is cold and avoidant socially, and can be considered rude due to this as well as she is often uninterested in small talk and the conventions of socializing with people she does not know very well, or with people who she does not share a common interest with. In her dedication and loyalty to her family as well she can be considered harsh when someone has crossed her or a member of her family and she can become easily irritated or threatening when someone hurts her family, and unable to control her anger and wrath in these situations. Carine while being well versed in many subjects relating to the world around her and accepting of things unconventional and controversial can also be considered quite close minded, and dismissing of things that are conventional because she considers them to be boring or not unique enough for her attention.

PERSONALITY TYPE
The Logician INTP-A
Logicians pride themselves on their unique perspectives and vigorous intellect. They can’t help but puzzle over the mysteries of the universe – which may explain why some of the most influential philosophers and scientists of all time have been Logicians. This personality type is fairly rare, but with their creativity and inventiveness, Logicians aren’t afraid to stand out from the crowd. Logicians often lose themselves in thought – which isn’t necessarily a bad thing. People with this personality type hardly ever stop thinking. From the moment they wake up, their minds buzz with ideas, questions, and insights. At times, they may even find themselves conducting full-fledged debates in their own heads.

Imaginative and curious, Logician personalities can find endless fascination in the workings of their own mind. From the outside, Logicians may seem to live in a never-ending daydream. They have a reputation for being pensive, detached, and a bit reserved. That is, until they try to train all of their mental energy on the moment or the person at hand, which can be a bit uncomfortable for everyone. But regardless of which mode they’re in, Logicians are Introverts and tend to get tired out by extensive socializing. After a long day, they crave time alone to consult their own thoughts.

But it would be a mistake to think that Logicians are unfriendly or uptight. When they connect with someone who can match their mental energy, these personalities absolutely light up, leaping from one thought to another. Few things energize them like the opportunity to swap ideas or enjoy a lively debate with another curious, inquiring soul.(from 16personalities.com)

FANCAST
Morticia Addams: The Addams family
full
Morticia Addams (née Frump) is the fictional matriarch of The Addams Family, created by cartoonist Charles Addams. In the 1990's films she is soft-spoken, seductive, warm and loving to her family. She is the one who consoles Gomez when he is at his lowest and proves her fierce loyalty to her family when she goes to confront Fester when he kicks the family out of their manor. During a job interview, after the entire Addams family was evicted from their house due to Abigail Craven's scheme, she revealed that she studied under a private tutor and claimed that her specialty is in conjuring hexes and spells, but the interviewer put down liberal arts. (from addamsfamily.fandom.com/wiki/Morticia_Addams)

Carine and Angelika Houston's portrayal in the 1990's films share many similarities. Carine is similarly warm and loving to her family and loyal to them, supporting them through thick and thin and any hardships they may face. She also similarly is interested in old magic and dark magic, and while she does not practice dark magic herself she is interested in reading about it. Similarly to the character of Morticia Addams generally, Carine speaks french and often accentuates her phrasing with french words, especially when communicating with her husband. Carine like Morticia loves her husband endlessly and is never afraid to show affection to him.



HISTORY;
and I wait, and I wait, and I wait, nd I wait, and I wait, and I wait, and I wait for her
i don't care what you say, no, i don't care what you do, i'm going to the darkside with you


EARLY YEARS
Carine was born on April 30, 2017 in Paris, France and was the first child born into a wealthy family. Being the first child to her parents who were both from wealthy heritages Carine spent the first few years of her life being spoiled and doted on by her parents and her nannies, only realizing and learning how to share her things over the next few years as her three younger sisters were born. Carine was initially resentful as a toddler and threw tantrums when her first younger sister was welcomed into the world, but she slowly grew to love each of her sisters as they were born, and as she grew older learning to lead her sisters and guide them in their decision making, and setting an example for them to follow.

Carine was tutored at home from age five, and this was how she learned to read and write and learned appropriate forms of etiquette. When she wasn't spending time with her younger sisters she could be found in her father's study reading any book from his bookshelves she could get her hands on. From a young age she showed an interest in the dark arts, not so much practicing it as reading about its use in history and the history of various dark wizards. Her parents supported her study of this and many other subjects labelled as controversial as she grew up, wanting Carine to have a wide understanding of magic and its uses outside of what was considered acceptable by law.

SCHOOL YEARS
Once Carine was school aged she was all to excited to begin her schooling at Beauxbatons, following the legacy of her mother in attending the school. She dove into her subjects with enthusiasm due to her love of reading and learning, and excelled in history and defense against the dark arts. Carine was very polite and kept her uniform and appearance pristine, as well as knowing how to dress herself outside of when she wore her uniform although due to her shyness in being in a new environment she did not make many friends, if any friends at all when she started her time at school. She preferred to keep to herself for the first few years, focusing on learning instead of interacting with her peers.

Even as Carine grew into her third and fourth years, she found learning and studying her favorite subjects more interesting than making friends, although she did realise as her peers began dating that she was holding herself back slightly by being so withdrawn. Carine felt the pressure to fit in and feigned interest in dating for a little while, through this making friends with a few of the girls in her year who were popular and it was through this she learned how to apply make up and style her hair in a more modern style and differently to how she learned to style her hair through her mother. She went to school dances with a few different boys and even had her first kiss in her fourth year, although none of these interactions were particularly important or memorable to her and she never pursued a real relationship.

As Carine began her fifth year and her schooling began to become more important, she returned to withdrawing and studying which is what she truly loved, and explored the subjects and topics that intrigued her. This reflected in her grades continuing to be exceptional throughout her sixth and seventh years as she completed her important magical examinations. Carine graduated with some of the best grades in her year, and upon graduating returned to her family's home in Paris.

ADULTHOOD
Carine as she began her adulthood intended to continue her studies into darker magic and the origins of magic while living under her parents' roof, focusing on the subjects and topics that made her happy and wanting to expand her knowledge instead of focusing on any particular career. Her parents were happy with this, due to their old fashioned traditional beliefs and their expectation for Carine to marry and have children rather than spend her time working. Carine wasn't particularly ready and did not feel mature enough to start a family as soon as she graduated, nor was she interested in finding a husband mostly due to her interest in academics instead of socializing, and because the eligible men in her family's social circle didn't interest her in the slightest.

It wasn't until Carine was in her early twenties, traveling around Paris to visit various historical sites that she met the man of her dreams, Yves Vale. He was a photographer and she modeled for him, their immediate connection the reason she married him in less than a month later, traveling with him around Europe before eventually settling in New Zealand. With the help of their families, she purchased an old farm house with him and began to decorate the house into their true home. In such a beautiful landscape with the land and space to study all she desired Carine was truly happy, and felt as if she had found her place in the world and that all of her dreams were finally becoming a reality.

Carine cultivated a garden of various potion ingredients and searched various magical antique stores for dark items and old magical books, studying all of the subjects she could and expanding her knowledge of magic to her innermost desires. She spent a few years studying and spending time with Yves, soon feeling as if she was ready to start a family with her husband and stepping away from her studies as they adopted a baby girl they named Astrea who they loved endlessly.

Carine adapted well to motherhood and it was no surprise that after a couple more years they welcomed their second child Osiris to the family, and a few years after this Carine was ecstatic to find out she was pregnant. Nine month's later their third child Ulric was born into the world and Carine was overwhelmed with happiness in being a mother and raising her three children. She tried her best to raise her children with love and support their interests as they began to read and write and she began to teach them about history and both sides of their family's heritage. It wasn't long after this that Yves reunited with his long lost brother, and with all three of their children, her husband, and her brother in law living under one roof, Carine felt her family was finally whole.

As the children began to grow older and more independent, Carine slowly returned to her studies, using her knowledge to furthermore widen her children's understanding of the world. Carine as she always had continued to embrace her magic and the family's magic, brewing and experimenting with potions whenever she was able to and regularly shopping for various magical antiquities, and books and items she could get her hands on. She is living the life she had always dreamed of with the freedom to study and learn as much as she can, all while raising a family she adores.
