Everyone that knows Michelle knows that whenever she puts her mind to something, it will get done, regardless of whatever obstacles she has to push through in order to do so. She is intelligent and very articulate, and her confidence is shown through her powerful mannerisms. She is generally friendly, unless you give her a reason not to be. While being confident in both herself and her actions, this is often to a fault. She is very opinionated, has trouble asking for help, and hates admitting when she's wrong. She tends to keep to herself, though is not timid, and can sometimes be sarcastic and cold towards others. She is extremely dependable, however; If you ask her to meet you somewhere, she will be there; if she promises to do something, she will do it; if you ask her for help, she will do everything in her power to assist. Underneath the frustrated sighs and eye-rolls lies a person who's kind and caring at the core. [color=C3D5E3][b]Wand:[/b][/color] [hider=Redwood wood with a phoenix feather core, 12 ΒΌ" and brittle flexibility] [u][b]Redwood[/b][/u] Wand-quality redwood is in short supply, yet constant demand, due to its reputation for bringing good fortune to its owner. As is usually the case with wand lore, the general populace have the truth back to front: redwood wands are not themselves lucky, but are strongly attracted to witches and wizards who already possess the admirable ability to fall on their feet, to make the right choice, to snatch advantage from catastrophe. [b][u]Phoenix[/u][/b] This is the rarest core type. Phoenix feathers are capable of the greatest range of magic, though they may take longer than either unicorn or dragon cores to reveal this. They show the most initiative, sometimes acting of their own accord, a quality that many witches and wizards dislike. Phoenix feather wands are always the pickiest when it comes to potential owners, for the creature from which they are taken is one of the most independent and detached in the world. These wands are the hardest to tame and to personalize, and their allegiance is usually hard won.[/hider] [color=C3D5E3][b]House:[/b][/color] Slytherin; While Slytherin has a bad reputation for producing Dark witches and wizards, not all Slytherins are rotten apples. You are here simply because you have high expectations and won't stop at anything to achieve your goals. Sure, you might step on a few fingers to get there, but that's a price you're willing to pay.

She thought it to be very ironic. [color=C3D5E3][b]Class rankings:[/b][/color] [indent]Top: Flying and DADA Middle: Charms and Transfiguration Bottom: Herbology and Potions[/indent] [color=C3D5E3][b]History:[/b][/color] Michelle was born on January 1st, 1999 in Liverpool to muggle-born witch Katherine Perry-Jenkins and Pure-blood Antwan Jenkins. She grew up an only child, and despite coming from a lower middle-class family, was a bit "spoiled" in result. While being a half-blood, Michelle spent more time with her non-magical side of the family than her other side. Because of this, she is no stranger to "muggle inventions" nor does she discriminate based on blood status. From a young age, Michelle has has been taught by her parents to be tough and look after herself; they told her that no one would have her back like she has her back. As a result, she has a hard time trusting others, and often times puts herself first before others. It came as no surprise when Michelle received her Hogwarts letter. Her parents had been teaching her things that she would need to know ever since she first learned to talk, after all. She'd heard many tales of the school from her parents, both Hogwarts Ravenclaw alumni, and was eager to find out if they were actually true. She and her parents know that she will excel both academically and socially. [/hider]
