Blood: Half-blood Appearance: Nix is extremely thin and tall, much to her discomfort, since normally, she will tower over the other females of Hogwarts, and is somewhat uncomfortable about this fact. Other then her height, Nix is rather pretty, with a small face, long, red hair, and large, expressive blue eyes. Her hair is normally down and rather messy, often tangling throughout the day, but during Quidditch games it is held high in a ponytail to keep out of her face. Healthy, Nix is known for her flexible and strong body and her glowing, freckled skin. Will normally be seen wearing her class robes or comfortable, affordable pants and tee-shirts, as she doesn't care much for fashion or appearances (though she does own Personality: An optimistic person, Nix is well known for her bright smiles and cheery laughs. While she is somewhat air-headed, (in both school and in general) she has a good heart and will try her best to be kind to everyone. Extremely stubborn and competitive, Nix will not stand down from a challenge and vows to win in everything she does. Normally, Nix will put others before herself, and is an extremely protective friend, but this often leads to being rather reckless alone and she is prone to illness and injuries because she fails to care for herself. Very self-conscious, Nixus loves to hide behind her hair when she's feeling nervous, and often says that she hates herself when alone or with an extremely close friend or family member. Hates dressing up, and is very boyish (but dislikes being called a tomboy, as that is somewhat sexist). Easily flustered, Nix hates being called out on her mistakes, but is rather oblivious to men who decide to flirt with her. Honest to a fault, Nix has trouble keeping secrets and often wonders out loud about people's appearances and attitudes. This bluntness has caused a few arguments to spur, especially when she was around her father, but Nix is rather good at keeping a cool head when fighting and most arguments just seem to brush off her. While she does have a great fear of the dark, Nix is very, very brave. Normally, her courage over powers her fears, though this also leads to her being a bit more reckless then usual. If one were to get on Nix's bad side, it would show clear as day. She will grow quiet, glare at everyone passing by, and might even snap out at people who try to find out what's wrong. Physical fighting might occur, as she isn't afraid to throw a punch, so it's best to stay on her good side. Strengths: + Kind + Courageous + Cooking + Brook riding + Charms + Herbology + Sports (Mostly Quidditch) Weaknesses: - Stubborn - Dim-witted - Naive - Low Self-Esteem - Any class that is not Herbology and Charms - Emotional History: Born into a family of two on the green landscape of Scotland's rural areas, Abelia was blessed with a gentle and kind childhood. Her mother was a gorgeous woman named Abel, and her father was a rather meek man named Jim, and they spent their days playing, relaxing, and learning, just as any family should. However, on Abelia's fifth birthday, Abel suddenly vanished from their household, and Jim and Abelia were left alone in their small house, no mother, no wife. No closure. Only a small present, which contained a beautiful white daisy necklace. Abelia was then given the responsibility of helping her father cook, clean, and basically survive without a mother's touch. She was forced to grow up quickly, but did not lose any of the kindness she was taught at her young age, and because of this she was rather popular in primary school. There were some, well, strange events that usually occurred around Abelia, though, such as dead flowers blooming whenever she got close to inspect some stems, papers levitating in the air during a heated discussion, and even the lights suddenly flashing on and off during an emotional episode. On her eleventh birthday, Abelia and her father were celebrating as they usually did when a letter sudden shot through the door and into Jim's hands. After a moment of reading, he sighed, and Abelia was taught about her mysterious mother, who just so happened to be a witch. The letter was addressed to Abelia, and it was a letter of acceptance to the magical school of Hogwarts. They spent the rest of the day discussing if she should attend, with Abelia being rather concerned about the letter while her father insisted that she went. The final verdict ended on platform nine and three-quarters, where Abelia gave her father a final hug before getting on the train to Hogsmeade for the first time in her life. Fear and excitement and confusion filled most of her head, but in the end, she did begin to feel a bit at peace, knowing that now she can learn to control her strange powers, and the idea of finding out where her mother went away too was suddenly becoming a big wish for the small girl. Now, six years later, Abelia has become Nix, the Gryffindor Seeker, the dorm room mother, and the bad test taker. Preparing for the N.E.W.Ts and keeping up her physical body was the greatest priority for this year, but still, she had yet to find any clues on her mother... Other: - Is the Gryffindor Seeker for the Quidditch team. - Often clings to a white daisy necklace when she is feeling nervous. - Has a bad habit of cracking her knuckles.[/center]
