Descriptions
Clarice's Physical Appearance:
Clarice has sandy blonde, bushy hair that reaches her shoulders. She has straight bangs that make her appear more youthful then her peers. She wears her hair up in a pony or in a bun when she is not with her mother because she prefers it this way. When she goes to her mother's functions it is straightened, only to poof back up in an hour or two. Clarice has very few freckles, but the ones she does have rest around and on her nose, fading out onto her cheeks. She doesn't wear any make up, of course, she is only eleven, and she doesn't need it. However, that doesn't mean that she is a beauty, no in fact she is quite average.
Clarice has coffee coloured brown eyes, that light up when her dry, pink lips curl into a smile, that bare her naturally straight, glisteningly white teeth. She is gangly and awkward with her body currently, as a prepubescant child, that is still quite flat chested. Her clothes don't fit her, and what does make her look like a boy, something her mother detests, while Clarice doesn't care either way. Her height is approximately 5' even, and is currently in a growth spurt.
Clarice has poor posture when she is not in classes, because she has her nose either stuck in a book or is hanging around with her two brothers playing sports with them.
Clarice's Personality:
Clarice is often known as the nerdy, tomboy know-it-all. She is often disliked because of how factual she is, and think that she is trying to show off, when she just likes things done correctly, like her father. She is quite the opposite of her mother, who is a graceful, posh woman, when her daughter is a clumsy girl, who cannot stand dressing up.
In her muggle schooling in England she was looked at as the teacher's pet, when the teachers didn't really like her because she often usurped their knowledge. She is considered quite ambitious while Clarice does not see this in herself, in fact there really isn't much she sees in herself other then another one of the boys and a book worm.
Family
Clarice's Mother: Eleanor Herrington (nee. Basse)
Eleanor is a muggle socialite, that owns several businesses around England, mainly being clothing boutiques. She owns one resturant, that was opened in the October of this year. She attended Oxford University as an English Literature student, and since then it has been her passion, but she does not pursue it because she has a strong nose for business and administration.
Winthrop is a Mixed Blood wizard, who attended Durmstrang during his school years along with his two older brothers. He now owns several wizarding business along with co-owning the muggle businesses his wife does. Along with attending Durmstrang he went to Oxford, which is where he met Eleanor.
Sebastian is finishing up his Seventh Year at Durmstrang, and will go onto Oxford University just as his father had. It seems to be a tradition in Clarice's family for all the males to attend Durmstrang then to go to Oxford, and Sebastian isn't one to break tradition.
Arthur is a squib. He does not care to learn anything about the wizarding world and never will. He is quite athletic, he plays various sports: rugby, soccer and football. He teaches Clarice sports and how to perfect her game while she teaches him academics.
