Name: Skyler Novina Age: 11 Gender: Female Appearance: [hider][img]https://s-media-cache-ak0.pinimg.com/originals/e8/f9/8f/e8f98fadde82f19691249d517b4aded1.png[/img][/hider] House: Ravenclaw Wand: [hider=Black Walnut wood with a dragon heartstring core, 11 ¾" and hard flexibility] [b]Black Walnut wood[/b] Less common than the standard walnut wand, that of black walnut seeks a master of good instincts and powerful insight. Black walnut is a very handsome wood, but not the easiest to master. It has one pronounced quirk, which is that it is abnormally attuned to inner conflict, and loses power dramatically if its possessor practises any form of self-deception. If the witch or wizard is unable or unwilling to be honest with themselves or others, the wand often fails to perform adequately and must be matched with a new owner if it is to regain its former prowess. Paired with a sincere, self-aware owner, however, it becomes one of the most loyal and impressive wands of all, with a particular flair in all kinds of charmwork. [b]Dragon Heartstring Core[/b] As a rule, dragon heartstrings produce wands with the most power, and which are capable of the most flamboyant spells. Dragon wands tend to learn more quickly than other types. While they can change allegiance if won from their original master, they always bond strongly with the current owner. The dragon wand tends to be easiest to turn to the Dark Arts, though it will not incline that way of its own accord. It is also the most prone of the three cores to accidents, being somewhat temperamental. [/hider] Personality: Skyler certainly isn't a loner. She enjoys being around people and talking about topics that interest her.She is one of the most sensible people you would ever meet. However, she isn’t afraid to do something stupid or dangerous if it will affect the world or people close to her positively. Even though her aura is usually calm, she is actually easily angered and annoyed. As a young child (and even now) she loved to study and do personal research due to her hard working nature. She loves art, photography, science, writing, mythology and astronomy. History: Before her mother divorced her father, she taught her about stars and such, sparking Skye's love for astronomy and science. She was the youngest child, being born 5 years after her older brother which was a muggle like her parents. When she got her acceptance letter, she was ecstatic. It took her and her father a bit to find the Diagon Alley, but once they found it they bought everything needed and more (Amelie, additional books etc.). Pet: A Russian Blue kitten named Amelie.
