Pearleane Pompaque
Age: 11
Gender: Female
House: Hufflepuff
Magical Heritage: Half-blood.
Appearance: The picture is a great start as to what Pearleane looks like. Though, that picture is of her a bit older. She had dark features (hair and eyes) and her skin tone is a soft cream color. However, she can tan very easily, and often receives a more olive tone during the warmer seasons because she prefers to be outside.
Biography/Personality: "A young woman always has three things with her, do you know what those things are my darling?" Pearleane looked up at her mother with her large almond shaped dark eyes, "Is the first one candy?" the girl questioned, her tummy grumbling as she watched her mother cook up dinner that night, a cackle came from the woman's lips, she wiped away her tears as she shook her head at her only daughter, "No, my darling you must have class, ass, and sass." Pearleane nodded, and repeated, "class, sass, and ass, momma I got it- now when is dinner?" The woman shook her head once more, "Not now my child, go play and I'll call you when it's done."
Pearleane was named after her great-grandmother on her very strictly pureblood mother's side. Her father (Frederick Pompaque) was a muggle and was only really around for Pearleane to be conceived. This may have gave Pearleane a bit of a prejudice against some muggles, but because of her kind and forgiving nature she tends to give everyone first and second chances. Pearleane's mother a pureblood (Claudia Wilhmer) single handedly raised the girl, and taught her to be hardworking, dedicated, and patient, even when things are overwhelming. It was no wonder the sorting hat placed her in Hufflepuff with no delay. Before going to Hogwarts she lived in a small one bedroom apartment with her mother, and didn't have too many glamorous things. Most if not all of her school supplies are second hand to her mother's.
The young girl has a bit of a sweet tooth, and has often been known to keep various sweets and snacks in her bag. Though it has gotten her a few odd stares and name calling from some of the more fit peers, she makes friend's pretty easily. Her loyalty is true and steady; once you find friendship in her, you have a friend for life.
Personal Items: A 7 inch Kneazle whiskers wand: Rosewood (Unyielding).
Special Gifts and Abilities: Pearleane excels in Herbology naturally, but has not found her true hidden talent quite yet. She is quite interested in Transfiguration and Divination.

His two older brothers loved Quidditch and needed someone to practice with so they used their little brother as a Keeper. So Jake is decent with a broom and being a keeper. He hopes to be the Keeper for his house when he is older. His brothers were on the team before him.
Jake loves most animals due to his upbringing. So he is comfortable with things that would scare most children. He is fearless in general but especially with animals.
He tried to make friends with everyone and has a joke ready for everything.
Weaknesses:
Said fearlessness gets him into a lot trouble. It tends to make him impulsive by nature.
He sometimes just speaks without thinking at all.
He sometimes gets quiet and sullen for seemingly nothing.
Personality: Jake is quick with a smile and a joke no matter what. He is always happy to meet new people and can be rather pushy with his introductions. He had to be pushy with two older brothers at home. He seemingly does not care if he is alone though. His happy with talking or reading a book for either class or fun. Jake likes any kind of animal no matter what. He always seems to have mischief in his eyes. Jake seems to want to be like both of his brothers.
History: Jacob Xander Masters was born on June 11 on his family's farm. His parents ran a magical farm in a small muggle village. None of the villagers could figure out how the farm kept going. His parents made decent money on the farm so he was not lacking. As the youngest of three boys Jake was never alone during his childhood and it shows in his personality. His parents taught him since he was young to work hard with everything. From the time he was five he had chores on the farm, like chasing out pests from the pumpkin patch or something similar. Jake had grown up listening to his brothers' stories about Hogwarts and he dreamed of going there himself. When his brothers were gone at the school his mother taught him different simple potions to make. Jake always liked that. His brothers had decided to use him as their Keeper as soon as Jake learned to ride a broom , practicing on a makeshift pitch in the back of the farm. Then his 11th birthday came and with it his owl saying he was accepted to Hogwarts. Jake had never been happier. His dream was coming true.

He sees it as his job to keep his younger brother safe.
Henry Masters((Won't be seeing much of him in rp. ))
Relationship: Oldest brother
Desciption: As with his two younger brothers, Henry looks the same as his brothers. However Henry dyed his hair lime green for a reason only known to him. Jake looks up to Henry the most since he is training to be an Auror.
Charlie is as short as her temper, red haired and freckled. Her uniform is rarely in appropriate order, and her hair is either disheveled or tied less-than-neatly to keep it out of her face. She has crooked teeth and refuses to wear the glasses that she needs, carrying them instead in a pocket of her robes.
Wand: Supple 11 inch, Cedar, with Ashwinder Ash core. This wand was in the very back of the wand makers shop when Chandler went to buy his gear. The shopkeeper said that it was a somewhat rare core.
Personal items and pets: A black and white spotted kitten named Castiel that his parents gave him.
Magical Heritage: First in the family to have wizarding powers. (Muggle born)
Backstory/Personality: It all really started when Chandler turned two, all sorts of unexplainable things would just seem to 'happen'. His parents 32 year old Colton Webster a videogame designer and mother, 30 year old graphic artist Becky Webster were rightly perplexed. They would be walking with Chandler and all of a sudden the tot would be holding some kind of candy or be petting a kitten. It wasn't until they caught and watched Chandler, the little rascal making his food (spinach) disappear that they realized that this boy was special. Being the rare breed of parent they were the two decided that Chandler would not be treated any differently and they would allow him to decide how he wanted his future to go.
The future was decided when Chandler found out that he could -if he believed and concentrated hard enough- make anything happen! Instead of trying to abuse this Chandler instead sat down and started trying to control it, to keep it from controlling his emotions. He was very successful, other than the skill he had Chandler grew up as any other British boy would. He enjoyed sports playing rugby and football mostly, but he also loved anything to do with getting his brain active.
As he grew older Chandler found that he had a problem learning, or for better explanation he didn't learn things the way others could. For Chandler he had to take everything in and formulate everything himself. This meant that it took a long time, sometimes even weeks to totally learn something. However, once he did learn it he never forgot it. Almost like a photographic memory of things he thoroughly picked apart and put back together. Chandler is also a very caring person and constantly sticks up for the guys getting bullied in school which of course meant he came home with a lot of bloody shirts.
Special Gifts and Abilities: Chandler is very adept at defensive magic, including other white magic like a patronus and the such. He also takes a long time to finally get a spell 'down' sometimes even taking a month. But when he gets it down he can perform it very well.
Strength's: Very adept at White magic in general, has a rare talent with such charms. Photographic memory.
Weaknesses: Is seen as stupid and made fun of as he takes awhile to learn things his own way, he also gets himself into situations where he defends others on numerous occasions.
He is light skinned and tends to burn rather easily in the sun despite the time he spends outdoors. He keeps his hair generally short, not liking the feel of it being able to touch his face or ears. He is of average height and build for his age, having not quite started growing yet. He is active and so is on the leaner side.
Dani is rather petite, standing at only 3’7” and weighing about 39 pounds, with straight, light brown hair that hangs down to her shoulders and blue eyes. She has a round face with a button nose and small ears that are normally hidden by her hair. Her body shape is rather slender, though it is obvious that she doesn’t have any sort of well-defined musculature.
The clothing she wears when not wearing the uniform usually consists of bright or pastel colored clothing, and is virtually limited to simple t-shirts and either pants or shorts, depending on the weather. One thing that is constant, however, is that she always has some sort of accessory in her hair, whether its a clip or a ribbon. The uniform itself is the same as that of every other student at Hogwarts, though maybe a little ill-fitting due to her small size.
Wand:
Length: 7 and ½ inches
Wood: Pine
Core: Unicorn hair
Pet: None
Strengths: Dani is quite skilled at reading body language and other nonverbal communication, as well as communicating without speaking, both of which are due to the fact that she is mute. She’s also quite good at going unnoticed, which is partially due to her small size. Though it shouldn’t come up for a while, it is worth mentioning that she is exceptional when it comes to dueling because she doesn’t cast magic verbally and can spot her opponent's tells more easily. It's also worth mentioning that she has a large amount of magical power and a talent for using it efficiently.
It might accurately be described as a strength, but Dani also has synesthesia, which means that she associates colors with letters, numbers, and sounds, as well as other associations. Perhaps as expected, Dani is a rather exceptional artist and musician, having been involved in art and music classes and clubs throughout her life so far.
Weaknesses: Dani is unable to speak, having been born mute, in addition to having Nyctophobia, or the fear of the dark. She is also entirely new to the whole magic thing, as she is a muggle-born witch. As such, she is often unsure of what she’s doing or proper customs, which can lead her into trouble with others. Due to being unable to speak, it is rather easy for others to bully her, and she has a tendency to let things go that she shouldn’t. Another thing to note here is that she is pretty weak physically, which is primarily due to her small size. As such, she's not very strong, fast, or durable, and she doesn't have a great amount of endurance.
A negative side-effect of her synesthesia is that she has a tendency to space out when experiencing something particularly intense, like a crescendo in music or a particularly vivid image. While these moments are usually pleasant, they can result in sensory overload, causing discomfort, irritability, or pain. Some sounds in particular have been known to provoke negative responses in her, which can be a bit surprising for someone usually so sweet.
Personality: Dani is, at first impression, a rather cold, distant person. But that is primarily because she can’t speak, and, upon getting to know her, it becomes clear that she is actually a sweet and kind-hearted individual who enjoys the company of others. Dealing with people who don’t understand her condition or who are impatient in dealing with her has resulted in her developing a surprising amount of patience for a child of her age.
Unfortunately, Dani can be rather spacey, an idea popping into her head having a tendency to capture her attention for longer than it should. That's not to say that she's not intelligent; she's about average in that department. It's just that she might get stuck on a concept because it is interesting to her, or something along those lines. If anything, it helps her understand the material better, if at a slightly slower pace than her peers.
History: Dani grew up in a small, rather unassuming muggle town in England. Apart from being mute and a synesthete, her life was rather normal. The only thing that her conditions resulted in were some bullying here and there and finding new ways to deal with the hassles of public school. There were a few times that she noticed that she was able to do things she shouldn’t have been able to do, though she usually just brushed them off as her overactive imagination playing tricks on her.
It wasn’t until she turned eleven on February 14th, that she discovered the magical side of the world, as a ministry official, who looked rather ridiculous if she was being honest, arrived at her doorstep with a letter of invitation to Hogwarts School of Witchcraft and Wizardry. He was there for quite some time explaining everything to the bewildered family, which also included Dani of course. By the time he was done, however, it was rather clear that the best option was to agree to send Dani to the school.
Preparing for the year took quite a bit of time, though mostly because they understood nothing about what they would need or where to get it and had a million questions for the ministry official who was tasked with guiding them through Diagon Alley. Really, the poor man deserved a medal of some sort for putting up with the small family, as the questions they asked seemed as though they would have common sense answers that would get tiring to answer.
Eventually, however, they did manage to acquire everything that she would need for her first year. From there, time seemed to fly until the day arrived to send her off at Platform 9 and ¾.
NPCs: None, currently
Other:
Dani carries a whiteboard and a variety of dry-erase markers around with her as a means of easy communication.
-Average height for her age
-She's naturally thin, but strong
-Usually has a smile on her face
-Either has her hair in a low pony tail or a braid
Try ignoring her hair and eye colour, as it changes quite often. Depending on her mood, they'll change colours, which is fairly unavoidable. More often than not, she'll have blonde hair, as she has a naturally happy disposition, and her eyes will be a warm amber colour. Blue is sad, black is pain, red is anger... you get the idea.
Other than that, she stands at a short height, with just the slightest beginning of curves along her slim body. With a pale, heart-shaped face (Although when very happy, her skin will often warm up to a healthy tan) and a sweet, dimpled grin, she often looks a few years younger than her actual age.
