Most of her length are in her legs. Though she still have the feminine curves she likes to show. Just to get the boy's attention. Her brown-reddish hair falls just below her shoulders. And she would like to keep it that way. The freckles often attract attention to her eyes. Which aren't brown but more the kind of red of dying embers. For the rest she is a bit pale but nothing too noticeable.[/indent] [b][u]Clothing Style:[/u][/b] [indent]Sarah likes to make an appearance. She often wears her brown leather jacket with a little tight but not uncomfortable shirt. Paired with a normal jeans. Of course, she varies slightly. But the common theme is tight, well-fitting but not restricting. She hates to wear dresses or skirts. So never wears them voluntarily.[/indent] [b][u]Tattoos | Scars | Markings:[/u][/b] [indent]None[/indent][hr][hr][center][h3][color=000000][u]Behind The Mask[/u][/color][/h3][/center] [b][u]Likes:[/u][/b] [indent][list] [*]Success [*]Powerful spells [*]Competence [*]Charms, Jinx and Hexes [*]Magical creatures [/list][/indent] [b][u]Dislikes:[/u][/b] [indent][list] [*]Potions [*]Incompetence [*]Divination [/list][/indent] [b][u]Fears:[/u][/b] [indent][list] [*]Being forgotten [*]Suffering the same fate as her parents [/list][/indent] [b][u]Personality:[/u][/b] [center][u]♦ Ambitious ♦ Unrelenting ♦ Helpful ♦ Kind ♦[/u][/center] [indent]Her mother had devestated her for so long that any self-worth was gone once she started Hogwarts. Though through praise she received from her fellow students, she flourished and vowed to push herself even harder. Like a storm or a hurricane she will push forward. Be it at a duel or at Quidditch. Stopping only till she won. It is that force that makes her so powerful. So needless to say, her willpower is very strong. Though she's not very thoughtful sometimes. She's goal oriented to a fault. Though not unkind. She will help up those who have fallen. Cheer up those who are sad. Above all else, Sarah likes to see her friends smile. Maybe even a little more than she likes to smile herself.[/indent][hr][hr][center][h3][color=000000][u]Delving Deeper[/u][/color][/h3][/center] [b][u]Background:[/u][/b] [indent]Sarah was born off a former Death Eater father by the name of Alexander Cypher and the heir of the McConnor family, Selena. Both held great power individually. Though their union was Selena's downfall. As it was, the McConnor family had proudly resisted the Dark Arts. According to themselves, no McConnor ever casted the Killing Curse. This has little to do with their bloodline and more with their family politics. Every McConnor who ever deared to be tempted by the Dark Arts was banished from the family. Benedict, the father of Selena banished her. Sarah's youth was far from pleasant. Her mother took up several jobs to maintain her own status, with little regard of her child. Selena adopted the name Dundainson, which she tracked back far into the McConnor bloodline. To hold on to little bloodrelation she had with her old family. Though she nearly abbandoned Sarah to her own accords. Going so far as to refuse to teach her magic. Selena, tired of the constant questions her doom-child asked her, was happy once Sarah went to Hogwarts. Of course with the cheapest stuff Selena could find. Being received into Gryffindor was a blessing. Young Sarah, who didn't even know the concept of praise was suddenly complimented. The effect of mere kindness was great. As she reflected said praise and kindness threefold. She flourished like a flower during her first two years at Hogwarts. Much to the dismay of her mother. Though in the summer between her 2th and 3th year, much changed. Fate would have it that Benedict McConnor caught rumours of a strong-willed child within Gryffindor. He realized that he might have cut off a branch of the family which would flourish greatly. He visited Sarah, disregarding his own child over his granddaughter. At the same time, Alexander came to a devestating realization. His wife was infertile. To continue the Cypher line, he would have to legitimize his bastard daugther. One he scorned and ignored for over a decay. Right after her 5th year, both tried to sway her with presents. From her grandfather, she got several ancient tomes. Though written in a runic code that she'd only understand once she finished Hogwarts. From her father she got a black hawthorn wand. With the promise of great power. Still, she did not chose which name she'd pick up.[/indent] [b][u]Extra: Hermione Granger, she's my absolute favorite.[/u][/b] [indent]Anything extra we need to know about your character?[/indent][hr][hr][center][h3][color=000000][u]Hogwarts Information[/u][/color][/h3][/center] [b][u]House:[/u][/b] [indent]Gryffindor[/indent] [b][u]Year:[/u][/b] [indent]6th[/indent] [b][u]Blood Status:[/u][/b] [indent]Pure blood[/indent] [b][u]Wand:[/u][/b] [indent]Hawthorn, 12", Thestral tail hair.
