Before I do my intro post... I have a question. Has everyone who has been approved already posted once? Like, would she be one of the last to come into the meeting?

Once Upon a Time (Rebooted)

Mulan Wu

Appearance:



Age:
24

Affiliation:
Good

Magic Capabilities:
Mulan possesses no magical abilities.
Weapons:
Mulan has multiple weapons on her person at all times. These include a large katana, a jian, multiple throwing knives, a dagger that sits on her hip, and six hidden daggers.

Strengths:
Mulan is highly trained in multiple different close combat weapons as well as hand to hand combat from her time in the army along with her father's own teaching. She is also well versed in archery and other projectile weaponry. Despite her small size, she can easily take on stronger and larger foes as that was how she trained in the beginning. When stripped out of her armor, Mulan is light-footed and incredibly quick, able to move almost silently and undetected by those around her.

She is also very intuitive and thinks quickly on her feet. Mulan can fit seamlessly into society as both a woman or a man which is helpful for the rare times that she feels the need to disguise herself as either or.

Weaknesses:
When in her armor, she is more protected but her movements are inhibited and louder, forcing her to shed the material if she wishes to continue forth unheard.

She is quiet short and light which, though she has been trained to work around it, does often put her at a disadvantage.

Realtionships:

Rumpelstiltskin -

Kaeden Liddell -

Heather Jekyll -

Evelyn Hyde -

Belle -

Regina Mills –

Ahzidal (Raven) -

Elizabeth Madden -

The Sorcerer's Apprentice -

Brief Bio:
To protect her aging father, Mulan masqueraded as a man for years in the Chinese army as they fought the war against Shan Yu and the Huns. Despite struggling in the beginning due to her smaller size, Mulan worked hard to strengthen herself and her abilities and soon gained the respect from the men and became one of the best soldiers in her unit.

When the war came to an end, Mulan returned home, turning down any offers from the Emperor to remain as adviser or a concubine. However, upon her return home she felt herself growing restless after such an active time in the war and found that she was unable to sit still. She decided that it was time to leave her family once more and dawned her armor as she began to travel the world, helping those in need in wars that were not her own.

Once Upon a Time (Rebooted)

~Elizabeth Madden~

~General Information~

Name (Enchanted Forest): Elizabeth Madden.
Other Names: Lizard, Puss in Boots.
Occupation: Collector (Formally), Thief (Presently).
Place Of Origin: Wonderland.
Age: 27.
Affiliation: Chaotic Good & Chaotic Neutral.

* A chaotic good character acts as her conscious directs her with little regard for what others expect of her. She makes her own way, but she's kind and benevolent. She believes in goodness and right but has little use for laws and regulations. She hates it when people try to intimidate others and tell them what to do. She follows her own moral compass, which, although good, may not agree with that of society.

* A chaotic neutral character follows her whims. She is an individualist first and last. She values her own liberty but doesn't strive to protect others freedom. She avoids authority, resents restrictions, and challenges traditions. A chaotic neutral character does not intentionally disrupt organizations as part of a campaign of anarchy. To do so, she would have to be either motivated either by good (a desire to liberate others) or evil (and a desire to make those different from herself suffer). A chaotic neutral character may be unpredictable, but her behavior is not totally random. She is not as likely to jump off a bridge as to cross it.

Appearance:



Wardrobe Style: Practical though still quite alluring, Elizabeth's wardrobe consists several different outfits, each of them allowing her both the free movement and comfort she needs while she's out collecting, running from the guards, or proving her skills with a blade; her unique style in Wonderland, and the opportunity of taking her pick from the clothes brought around constantly by the clothes-horse, leaving her with something in any occasion (E.g. Collector's outfit, e.g. Enchanted Forest outfit, ect.) whether it be hanging out with her family, or doing her best to keep her head.

Detailed Relationship Information

Jefferson Madden
Once having an extremely close relationship with his younger sister, the bond between them both strong, and leaving the two of them almost inseparable, Jefferson Madden always doing whatever he could, and giving his best throughout the years to look after and raise his younger sister to be the beautiful and confident young woman that he always knew her capable of being. With the stress of losing not only his wife, but also his best friend and his best friends little sister, a strain fell eventually fell between the two of them, the thought of losing yet another member of his now dwindling family causing the two of them to argue, and in the end he was forced to watch on hopelessly as Elizabeth packed up her things and left him to go and find the man she had fallen in love with. Regretting letting her go almost instantly, Jefferson continued to live everyday life, doing his best to look after his daughter while keeping his sister close in his heart, hoping that one day, they would be able to reconcile and regain the relationship that the two of them used to share.

Grace Madden
Looking up to her aunt with both idolization and adoration, Grace Madden was a sweet young girl who did all she could to make her aunt proud of everything she did. An innocent bystander as both her aunt and her father fought, she was watched on helplessly as Elizabeth packed her things and said goodbye to her family. Spending each day with her father, living life as the family they had always been, the young girl still misses her aunt, though does her best not to mention how she feels so as not to upset her father on the topic.

Kaeden Liddell
-TBW-

Alice Liddell
Looking up to her as not only an older sister, but also as the only female figure left in her life after her mother's passing, Alice Liddell was one of the few that truly opened up to the older woman; the two, almost inseparable, always getting into some sort of trouble whenever Elizabeth wasn't out collecting for either Caterpillar or Dodo. Pushing her limits a little too far, Alice was caught for her so-called crimes, forcing Elizabeth to watch on in horror as she was dragged away to the Queens of Hearts castle to await the time when she was to be executed by means of beheading.

~Personal Information~

Personality: Seen to be both an extremely spirited and quick-witted young woman, Elizabeth has a very compassionate and caring nature towards those who show her that they deserve it, allowing them to see the real her, rather than showing them just what everyone expects her to be due to her being a collector; the young woman showing nothing but comfort and love towards her family, and an almost motherly type care towards the two young girls that are in her life. Considered to be exceptionally beautiful by many who meet her, she tends to attract both the attention and affection of numerous men, and while the quite passionate and suave young woman is unafraid to flirt and lead them on to get whatever it is that she desires, she is intensely faithful and loyal to the one who has managed to steal her heart at any given time.

An incredibly intelligent young woman, Elizabeth proves herself time and time again to be not only beautiful, but also capable at handling anything that gets thrown her way, her strong fiery spirit, unbridled will-power and passionate independent streak helping the young woman to rarely ever hesitate whenever it comes to standing up against someone, whether it be her older brother or her boss. Displaying an immense amount of courage and a slightly heroic ability as a fighter when the situation calls for it, she is never afraid to intervene and put herself in the middle of an argument, extremely stubborn she is always willing to stand up for what she feels in her heart is right.

Despite portraying a rather fierce, just and kind young woman, Elizabeth sometimes has the nasty habit of biting at her nails whenever she gets nervous or overly anxious, the young woman sometimes having to force and consciously refrain herself from doing so when she is in the company of others. A vicious little thing whenever she is pushed far enough, she is widely known for being quite tough, not only being able to take a physical beating, but mentally as well, and though her conscience does sometimes tend to get in the way, the woman has a mean streak strong enough to shake Wonderland, her well-kept temper leaving her a force to be reckoned with.

Strengths: An extremely intelligent young woman, Elizabeth has a knack for both getting what she wants and getting her way, whether it just be information out of a reluctant party, or getting out of doing something that she doesn't particularly want to do; the young woman using her attractive physical appearance and strong charisma to her advantage, making it hard on others to say the word "no" to her.

Also a skilled climber, parkour enthusiast and a fast runner, Elizabeth has great reflexes, especially when it comes to handling a blade; her great speed and excellent flexibility allowing her to pull her weapon and strike down several targets in a rather quick amount of time. Mentally stronger than most and with a peak of durability, it shows that disease and illness rarely affect her in any way, allowing her to keep her keen senses sharp and ready to use at a moments notice.

Weaknesses: Immensely protective over her family, she tends to take any sort of threat against them with a severity like no other, intensely loyal to the ones that she loves and cares for, Elizabeth doesn't stop to think twice before jumping into action, the reckless young woman oftentimes letting her emotions get the better of her, and is willing to do whatever it takes to keep them safe, even if it means putting her own life on the line to do so.

Magic Capabilities:
Realm jumping - Elizabeth, much like her brother to come before her, has the unique and widely sought out ability to jump between realms, her boots allowing her to both quickly and safely travel between the different realms so long as they are all connected together through the bond of magic.

This particular for of magic does not work when trying to get to a realm that is not connected to others through magic.

Weapons:
Quite skilled and able to handle a range of different weapons, Elizabeth prefers the feel of blades to most others that are available for her use, though with the choice at hand she will always chance a sword and daggers above all other weapons that are at her disposal; the young woman also having no issues with using her body and flirtatious nature as a weapon against the opposite sex.

Brief Biography:
Born into a sweet and loving family, Elizabeth Madden grew up extremely close to her older brother, Jefferson, the bond created between the two of them strong and unbreakable, leaving the two of them almost completely inseparable, the older of the two doing all he could to help look after and raise his younger sister to become the beautiful and confident young woman that they all knew her to be. Following her brothers lead when it came to making friends, the two siblings quickly befriended a couple of the other children in their families village, the four children soon becoming as thick as thieves, rarely ever being seen without at least one of the others by their sides; their relationships growing stronger as the years passed them by. Eventually becoming the extremely feisty and ever outgoing young woman that every saw her to be, Elizabeth never feared or back down from whatever it was that lay in front of her, pushing her limits not only with her job as a collector, but also when it came to the bonds that she shared with those around her; her relationship with Kaeden soon blossoming into something more than she could of ever hoped, when she found love with one of her best friends.

Doing her best to be a mature and responsible older sister figure for Alice to look up to, the two of them quickly began spending more and more time together; the two of them, almost inseparable, always seeming to find themselves getting into some sort of trouble whenever she wasn't busy with her job, though pushing their luck a little too far, disaster struck the pair, leaving Elizabeth to watch on in horror as Alice was dragged away to the castle by the Queen of Hearts' men to await the time in which she was to be executed for her so-called crimes by means of beheading. Unable to take what was happening to her family, Elizabeth was helpless as she watched the death of Kaeden's sister tear him apart, causing him to disappear from her life without a trace; not wanting to be apart from the man that she had fallen in love with, she quickly packed her things and left Wonderland, determined to find Kaeden so that the two of them could once more be together, her actions causing a rift to come between herself and her brother, and the guilt of walking away from him and her niece to eat her up from the inside out.

Finding herself in the middle of the Enchanted Forest, Elizabeth soon found herself in the company of Robin Hood and his Merry Men, the band of thieves welcoming her into their ranks and introducing her into their way of life while helping her to find the one she had come in search for in the first place, their hard work not going to waste as a raid on a carriage from the Kingdom of Avonlea soon had her search coming to an end. Reunited with the man she loved, the two quickly made plans for a better life together, though with the promise of once more finding him, Elizabeth had no other choice but to return to Wonderland for one final job before being able to settle down with him. Wanting nothing more than to return to him in the Enchanted Forest, she rushed the job, her sloppy work causing things to go wrong and forcing her to run for her life before being turned into nothing more than a stone statue fit to decorate the Queen of Hearts' garden.

~Other Information~

Other: One of her most prized possessions, Elizabeth is rarely ever seen without the beautiful circular locket hanging around her neck; originally gifted to her by her older brother with a picture of the five of them together (Jefferson, Kaeden, Alice, Grace and herself), she does all she can to keep it close to her heart, in hopes that one day, they will be a family again.

Regina – The Evil Queen

Name:
Regina Mills, "The Evil Queen"

Appearance:


Age:
36

Affiliation:
Chaotic Evil



Status and Job:
The Evil Queen – Queen of The Enchanted Forest



Magic Capabilities:
Having been taught by Rumplestiltskin himself, Regina’s magic nearly rivals his own, though she has more of a knack for enchanting objects and ripping out hearts for control than her mentor does. The sole reason Regina wanted to learn magic was to bring back the dead, which she still hasn’t been able to accomplish and has just settled down with the fact that even with magic, it isn’t possible.

Regina’s favored magic abilities include those of the use of magic mirrors, a poisoned apple, disguising herself to look like someone else, taking people’s hearts and brewing potions for her own selfish reasons.



Weapons:
Regina doesn’t have any need for weapons, however she can be caught with a dagger from time to time when magic has failed her (usually hidden in one of her boots) and knows how to wield a sword with master precision.



Strengths:
Regina is the Queen, and therefore has an entire army at her disposal and runs the entire kingdom, her power even branching out to other Kingdoms in their fear of her. She has eyes and ears everywhere; not much goes on in the Enchanted Forest that she doesn’t know about. Her magic aptitude also keeps her on top, as very few can rival her power. She is quick, cunning and manipulative as well as secret and seductive. She can make a person believe to be her friend while she plots on how to make them the most miserable. She is both brash and introverted, making her a deadly threat as she is often unpredictable with her methods.



Weaknesses:
Although Regina won’t ever admit it, she is very lonely and just wants someone to be there with here even though her harsh personality constantly drives people away (which she does not understand). Also, even though Regina is a very powerful magician, she is still human and can still bleed, therefore is weak to any normal status ailments or weapon. It’s just harder to injure her because she’s so magically protected and can heal herself with a simple spell. She also has a knack for making her superiors constantly proud of her, which drives her to do irrational things in order to prove a point which often makes her work sloppy or unsuccessful.

Relationships

As Queen, Regina has ties with every royal family all throughout the realm, though her relationships with them, for the most part, are less than nice as she truly has no friends save for Maleficent.

Characters Coming

Brief Bio:
Regina was born in the shadow of her mother who constantly reminded Regina that whatever it was that she did, it was for her "own good." Regina was raised Royally though she wanted no part of it; all she wanted was to ride horses and be free, however her mother would not allow it. Regina grew rebellious and eventually fell in love with the stable boy, Daniel. The two met in secret on a regular basis and one day, Daniel proposed. The two planned on running away together, Regina cared not for her royal future; all she wanted was true love even if her mother didn't approve.

On the afternoon before they were to run off together, Regina heard a little girl’s cry for help and spotted the girl on the back of a spooked horse, running to their sure death. Regina jumped on her own horse and chased them down, eventually stopping the wild horse and saving the little girl's life. It wasn’t until Regina got home that she realized that the little girl was King Leopold’s daughter, Snow White, and King Leopold was out and about looking for a wife. And since Regina had saved his daughter from her death, he sought out Regina at once.

Regina’s mother, Cora, accepted the betrothal on Regina’s behalf and in anger, Regina ran to the stables, determined to run away with Daniel. She met with him in the barn and cried out her worries to her lover, however Snow White, who had come to thank Regina and also welcome her as her new mother, overheard everything and ran off, crying. Regina chased after Snow and tried to tell her about true love, and made her promise not to tell anyone. Snow White promised not to tell. Regina and Daniel then decided that it would be best for them to run away on a different day, and so their secret remained hidden.

Cora took it upon herself to start spending time with little Snow White since she was to be her step-granddaughter. Cora then began telling Snow that she was jealous that she and Regina got along so well, since Regina seemed to distance herself away from her. She then went on to tell Snow that she was upset because all she wanted was to make Regina happy. Snow, unable to hold the secret any longer, then begged Cora to not make Regina marry her father because she was in love with someone else. Cora then took it upon herself to put the pieces together.

On the night that Regina and Daniel were to run away together, the night before the wedding, Regina met Daniel in the stables; however Cora had followed her daughter there and found out everything. Out of rage that Regina was going to throw away her right to be Queen, Cora ripped out Daniel’s heart and crushed it in front of Regina, demanding that she marry King Leopold and take the throne as Queen.

Now heart-broken and left with no other choice, Regina married the King and became Snow White’s step-mother. But she never stopped thinking about Daniel. It was because of this empty hole in her heart that got Regina thinking... can magic bring back the dead? There was only one person that would ever be capable of doing such a thing... and so she summoned Rumplestiltskin and became his apprentice, learning the ways of dark magic although Rumplestiltskin made it quite clear that “...dead is dead...” So Regina began to fill the empty hole in her heart with power, anger, and vengeance towards Snow White and in the process, banished her very own mother into a different world where she could not return.

Years of plotting and planning, Regina finally came up with the perfect way to get back at Snow White. Through her heart. Regina staged Snow’s father’s "accidental" death and reveled in her tears at the funeral. Afterwards, Regina sent out her Huntsman to chase Snow down through the woods and bring back her heart. The Huntsman, however having a kind heart, let Snow go and tried to trick the Queen by bringing her the heart of a stag instead. Regina was not fooled.

Regina spent the next couple of years searching for Snow White through the forest, but never prevailed. Snow just always seemed to be one step ahead of her, all the time. And so Regina, tired of playing the game of cat and mouse, took matters into her own hands and began to torture her subjects. Anyone who knew information about Snow White but kept it to themselves was killed and thus the blood count by Regina’s own hand grew and grew the longer Snow hid. Snow was unable to take it anymore, unable to let others take the fall for something she had done, and so she agreed to meet Regina to make the bloodshed stop.

Regina handed Snow a poisoned apple, telling Snow that if she did not take it willingly, Regina would kill Prince James (Charming) as she had him captive and continue to torture the innocent people in the villages. Seeing that Snow had no other choice, she bit the apple and fell lifeless to the ground.

Now all Regina had to do was make sure that "True Loves Kiss" wouldn’t be able to break the curse, and so, she went to Rumplestiltskin for a curse that would keep the two of them apart forever, as she was cursed to not be able to harm either of them in this land. However, the curse came with a heavy price, and Regina was forced to rip the heart out of her very own father to create the curse. Now, it is only a matter of moments before this curse is unleashed and will destroy the entire Enchanted Forest.

Katherine Ollivander

Basic Information

Name Katherine Ollivander

Age 27

Gender Female

Marked? No

---

Appearance

Kate has a rather tall, slender figure making her height reach 5’9” which, as she has been told quite often when she was growing up and reaching into her height, was just ‘too tall’ for a woman but with the teasing came confidence and she now carries herself as such, head held high with a purpose in each step she takes that carries her assurance all the way down her back and deep into her legs. Her skin is a bit darker than most people of her ethnicity, but she is very Caucasian. Her darker complexion really brings out the natural pink tint to her lips and her thick dark eyelashes that make her brown eyes look just a bit bigger than they actually are. For the most part she believes in a natural look, using maybe a small amount of eyeliner and perhaps a spot of red lipstick from time to time, but she keeps herself simple; minimalistic, as she has more important things to worry about than her looks. As such, she keeps her dark brown hair a tolerable length just reaching her jawline. Not too short to throw up into a ponytail, and not too long to have to spend hours styling every day.

Skills and Talents

Overall Role Wand-Maker | Duelist

Talents

Wand-Making is a skill that has been passed down from generation upon generation in the Ollivander family. Very few who are born into it do not have the gift. Along with the business came an increased knowledge and outstanding memory that almost rivals even her grandfathers, though she still has much to learn about the business.

Transfiguration and Charms has always been very solid subjects of Kate’s. Even as a child, the first signs of magic that she showed being small instances of turning some of her toys into live animals like mice and birds who she would often spend hours afterwards playing with until the spell wore off, putting the smallest charms on them like how to sing a different song or change the color of their fur. What are considered to be difficult subjects to master, Kate was able to do at an early age; even in school she was advanced a few years’ classes to be with those who had similar abilities, though was almost always at the top. As of her twentieth birthday, Kate became a registered animangi when she started experimenting with transfiguration spells on herself, promptly turning herself into a rare-colored silver fox though small in relative stature.

Kate is a reasonably seasoned duelist (though nothing professional or specially trained) due to her knowledge of wandlore and ability to identify spells easily, which in turn also allows her to be familiar with the strengths and weaknesses of different wands. It is also due to her familiarity of wands that Kate is also versatile when it comes to using other peoples wands, having tried out a few in the shop while a student and getting a few various types to work for her with reasonably successful success.

Apparition is a somewhat self-explained talent; most witches and wizards capable of the feat, however Kate prefers traveling by Floo Powder if ever given the choice. Or by foot.

Weaknesses

Because Kate spends whatever free time she has in bookland, Kate often times forgets important appointments or scheduled meetings in which she is supposed to attend, oftentimes making her very late to certain functions. As such, Kate has spent most of her life in the cozy confines of a closed-off room, whether it be a library, a study or her own room, reading and reading until her heart is content but lacks the physical exercise and experience to be athletically adept meaning when it comes down to brass tacks and the only situation is to run, Kate will not do very well.

Although skilled in Charms and Transfiguration, all other magic studies that had fallen upon Kate did not stick as well as she would have hoped after she graduated from Hogwarts. Potion making, Herbology, Defense Against the Dark Arts – although she retains a very basic knowledge on such fields and more, she very rarely counts on these skills to get her anywhere, sticking to what she knows and leaving it at that.

Kate’s personality is hammered into her hard, always seeing the good in others even though she has every reason not to trust them or offer them a second chance. Kate has a pure heart, and though oftentimes one would think that would be a good thing, it has often led Kate down a path of being used, abused and stepped on, but she refuses to see bad in a person just because a few wrong decisions. Even Lord Voldemort, she believes, has a reason to be doing what he is doing and believes that he is doing the right thing. Call her a romanticist with her head filled of fairytales and happy endings, but she hopes that Voldemort, and people like them, can find their happy ending someday on a much less destructive path. She is smart enough, however, to know how to defend herself when the time calls, but she will avoid fighting at most any costs.

Favourite Spells
Accio - Summons an object

Confundo - Causes the victim to be confused and befuddled

Everte Statum - Throws the victim backward, similarly to if they'd been thrown

Expecto Patronum - Creates a Patronus (in Kate’s case a white fox)

Expelliarmus - Disarms your opponent

Fianto Duri - A defensive charm which, based on the etymology, strengthens shield spells, and perhaps objects in general, in a similar way to Duro

Homorphus Charm - Causes an Animagus or transfigured object to assume its normal shape

Imperturbable Charm - Makes objects such as doors impenetrable (by everything, including sounds and objects)

Petrificus Totalus - Body bind

Smokescreen Spell - Creates a defensive cloud of smoke from the tip of the wand

---

Biography

Views

Kate was raised to be around all sorts of people and creatures and therefore has a very open view on them. Giants, Veela, Centaurs – Kate sees no difference. It is her firm belief that the decisions that someone makes determines who they are, not how or to who they were born. This crosses over to pure-blood families as well as Muggleborns, believing that each person is defined by their heart – not their status of magic they were born into.

That doesn’t go without saying, however, that Kate is a small bit weary of pure-bloods given their snobbish, pristine reputation but while more hesitant to open herself up around them, she still ‘judges’ their character based on her own personal observations by ‘looking’ into their heart. The same can be said for Goblins.

History

Born into a somewhat small family on September 25th, 1972, Kate's parents knew immediately that she would grow up to amount to her grandfather, Garrick Ollivander, as they shared the same birthday. Related to the famed wand-maker on her father’s side, Kate grew up knowing the importance and weight that her name carried; generations upon generations of wand makers dating back to England in 382 B.C. She showed much promise in her skills as a child. Introduced to the business of wand-making ever since she was old enough to hold one, Kate learned at an early age how to improve upon the cores and wand wood used to develop a better-suited wand.

She went to Hogwarts in 1983, able to make her own wand from scratch under the careful supervision of her grandfather and father before getting to school. She gained a proficient knowledge in Charms and Transfiguration while at Hogwarts (sorted into Ravenclaw like a great majority of her family), both of which she adored and excelled in greatly given her prior background and upbringing with the subjects. She spent her summers and winter holidays every year in Diagon Alley, helping her Grandpa out in the shop and learning more and more about what it was to be a wand maker. He taught her firsthand how to locate wand woods and core substances, how to marry them together and even got into learning how to match them to the owners that would forever remember the name Ollivander.

After Kate graduated from Hogwarts in 1990, she took up a permanent residence in her grandfather’s shop in Diagon Alley, paying her way by helping out in the back with inventory and making new wands while Garrick continued to assist people in the front. She didn’t mind the behind the scenes work, it often gave her time to catch up on her reading anytime a new novel came out from the bookstore just down the street. Times were getting harder for Witches and Wizards – one of the many reasons Garrick kept her in the back of the shop but for the most part, Ollivander’s Wand Shop remained a safe place to be. The world would always need wands...

Until a few years later when the attacks on Diagon Alley became more and more frequent. Even Ollivander's Wand Shop wasn't safe from the likes of Voldemort and his followers. A great number of occasions left the place muddled up which took Garrick and Kate weeks to clean up, only for it to be attacked again. Finally, after months of living in fear on when the next attack would be, it happened, and Kate found herself in her very first lethal duel. She doesn't remember much of the fight, an entire row of wands had been toppled over on top of her while she tried to defend her home and grandfather, but when she woke up, Garrick was gone and the shop utterly destroyed. Without a home and a missing grandfather, Kate was forced back to her father's home where she had been born, but that too had been destroyed and her parents were nowhere to be found.

Taking off on her own for a while (for she had very little choice), Kate learned what the real world truly was like as it seemed she had been shielded from its darkness her whole life until the last few months. A rude wakeup call - Kate was determined more now than ever in wanting to help; or at least to be a voice to return the world to what it should have been and to even find her missing family. She didn’t know exactly what she could do, she had proved to be a mere annoyance in the wake of a handful of Death Eaters, but she knew in her heart it was the right thing to do, for her family's sake.

She found the Ashes shortly after, taking up residency and working behind the scenes with them by lending her services in complex charms and wand making/repair. She has been with them for a little over a year now, though most don’t even know who she is since she spends less time out on the field working with others and more time in the offices doing the work that most don’t even know is needed.

Wand

9” Oak, Unicorn Tail Hair

Oak signifies wisdom, endurance, protection, and authority. Your unicorn's tail hair core means that you are pure of heart and care deeply for your loved ones.

Patronus

Fox - Patience, wisdom, intelligence, adaptability. Fox people can be high strung or exceedingly calm, charismatic or mysterious, prone to stand out or blend in, keep peace or make mischief. They tend to be partially rooted in the spirit world, living day to day in sort of a 'world between'. Foxes are a strong symbol of femininity, shape-shifting, illusion, and magic.

@YoshiSkittlez

Also, just a point you might like to add (optional!) Diagon Alley was raided more than a few times by Death Eaters! I imagine the shop would've been roughed up a bit/destroyed, maybe?

@McHaggis

Edited :) I like this much better haha

Finite Incantatem [AU Harry Potter RP]

@YoshiSkittlez Up to you! ^^ I give you free reign!

@McHaggis

But seriously, that's awesome. I'll try to get in my edits before I got to work here in 40 minutes.

Finite Incantatem [AU Harry Potter RP]

@McHaggis

Ill get that edited, gives me a more solid reason for Kate to leave. Would Garrick have been captured too like he was in the books/movies?

Finite Incantatem [AU Harry Potter RP]

Alright, giving it another go. VASTLY different from my last one, but from what I'm understanding, I needed a little 'different' :p

Her darker complexion really brings out the natural pink tint to her lips and her thick dark eyelashes that make her brown eyes look just a bit bigger than they actually are. For the most part she believes in a natural look, using maybe a small amount of eyeliner and perhaps a spot of red lipstick from time to time, but she keeps herself simple; minimalistic, as she has more important things to worry about than her looks. As such, she keeps her dark brown hair a tolerable length just reaching her jawline. Not too short to throw up into a ponytail, and not too long to have to spend hours styling every day.

Skills and Talents

Overall Role Wand-Maker | Duelist

Talents

Wand-Making is a skill that has been passed down from generation upon generation in the Ollivander family. Very few who are born into it do not have the gift. Along with the business came an increased knowledge and outstanding memory that almost rivals even her grandfathers, though she still has much to learn about the business.

Transfiguration and Charms has always been very solid subjects of Kate’s. Even as a child, the first signs of magic that she showed being small instances of turning some of her toys into live animals like mice and birds who she would often spend hours afterwards playing with until the spell wore off, putting the smallest charms on them like how to sing a different song or change the color of their fur. What are considered to be difficult subjects to master, Kate was able to do at an early age; even in school she was advanced a few years’ classes to be with those who had similar abilities, though was almost always at the top. As of her twentieth birthday, Kate became a registered animangi when she started experimenting with transfiguration spells on herself, promptly turning herself into a rare-colored silver fox though small in relative stature.

Kate is a reasonably seasoned duelist (though nothing professional or specially trained) due to her knowledge of wandlore and ability to identify spells easily, which in turn also allows her to be familiar with the strengths and weaknesses of different wands. It is also due to her familiarity of wands that Kate is also versatile when it comes to using other peoples wands, having tried out a few in the shop while a student and getting a few various types to work for her with reasonably successful success.

Apparition is a somewhat self-explained talent; most witches and wizards capable of the feat, however Kate prefers traveling by Floo Powder if ever given the choice. Or by foot.

Weaknesses

Because Kate spends whatever free time she has in bookland, Kate often times forgets important appointments or scheduled meetings in which she is supposed to attend, oftentimes making her very late to certain functions. As such, Kate has spent most of her life in the cozy confines of a closed-off room, whether it be a library, a study or her own room, reading and reading until her heart is content but lacks the physical exercise and experience to be athletically adept meaning when it comes down to brass tacks and the only situation is to run, Kate will not do very well.

Although skilled in Charms and Transfiguration, all other magic studies that had fallen upon Kate did not stick as well as she would have hoped after she graduated from Hogwarts. Potion making, Herbology, Defense Against the Dark Arts – although she retains a very basic knowledge on such fields and more, she very rarely counts on these skills to get her anywhere, sticking to what she knows and leaving it at that.

Kate’s personality is hammered into her hard, always seeing the good in others even though she has every reason not to trust them or offer them a second chance. Kate has a pure heart, and though oftentimes one would think that would be a good thing, it has often led Kate down a path of being used, abused and stepped on, but she refuses to see bad in a person just because a few wrong decisions. Even Lord Voldemort, she believes, has a reason to be doing what he is doing and believes that he is doing the right thing. Call her a romanticist with her head filled of fairytales and happy endings, but she hopes that Voldemort, and people like them, can find their happy ending someday on a much less destructive path. She is smart enough, however, to know how to defend herself when the time calls, but she will avoid fighting at most any costs.

Biography

Views

Kate was raised to be around all sorts of people and creatures and therefore has a very open view on them. Giants, Veela, Centaurs – Kate sees no difference. It is her firm belief that the decisions that someone makes determines who they are, not how or to who they were born. This crosses over to pure-blood families as well as Muggleborns, believing that each person is defined by their heart – not their status of magic they were born into.

That doesn’t go without saying, however, that Kate is a small bit weary of pure-bloods given their snobbish, pristine reputation but while more hesitant to open herself up around them, she still ‘judges’ their character based on her own personal observations by ‘looking’ into their heart. The same can be said for Goblins.

History

Born into a somewhat small family on September 25th, 1972, Kate's parents knew immediately that she would grow up to amount to her grandfather, Garrick Ollivander, as they shared the same birthday. Related to the famed wand-maker on her father’s side, Kate grew up knowing the importance and weight that her name carried; generations upon generations of wand makers dating back to England in 382 B.C. She showed much promise in her skills as a child. Introduced to the business of wand-making ever since she was old enough to hold one, Kate learned at an early age how to improve upon the cores and wand wood used to develop a better-suited wand.

She went to Hogwarts in 1983, able to make her own wand from scratch under the careful supervision of her grandfather and father before getting to school. She gained a proficient knowledge in Charms and Transfiguration while at Hogwarts (sorted into Ravenclaw like a great majority of her family), both of which she adored and excelled in greatly given her prior background and upbringing with the subjects. She spent her summers and winter holidays every year in Diagon Alley, helping her Grandpa out in the shop and learning more and more about what it was to be a wand maker. He taught her firsthand how to locate wand woods and core substances, how to marry them together and even got into learning how to match them to the owners that would forever remember the name Ollivander.

After Kate graduated from Hogwarts in 1990, she took up a permanent residence in her grandfather’s shop in Diagon Alley, paying her way by helping out in the back with inventory and making new wands while Garrick continued to assist people in the front. She didn’t mind the behind the scenes work, it often gave her time to catch up on her reading anytime a new novel came out from the bookstore just down the street. Times were getting harder for Witches and Wizards – one of the many reasons Garrick kept her in the back of the shop but for the most part, Ollivander’s Wand Shop remained a safe place to be. The world would always need wands...

Until a few years later when the attacks on Diagon Alley became more and more frequent. Even Ollivander's Wand Shop wasn't safe from the likes of Voldemort and his followers. A great number of occasions left the place muddled up which took Garrick and Kate weeks to clean up, only for it to be attacked again. Finally, after months of living in fear on when the next attack would be, it happened, and Kate found herself in her very first lethal duel. She doesn't remember much of the fight, an entire row of wands had been toppled over on top of her while she tried to defend her home and grandfather, but when she woke up, Garrick was gone and the shop utterly destroyed. Without a home and a missing grandfather, Kate was forced back to her father's home where she had been born, but that too had been destroyed and her parents were nowhere to be found.

Taking off on her own for a while (for she had very little choice), Kate learned what the real world truly was like as it seemed she had been shielded from its darkness her whole life until the last few months. A rude wakeup call - Kate was determined more now than ever in wanting to help; or at least to be a voice to return the world to what it should have been and to even find her missing family. She didn’t know exactly what she could do, she had proved to be a mere annoyance in the wake of a handful of Death Eaters, but she knew in her heart it was the right thing to do, for her family's sake.

She found the Ashes shortly after, taking up residency and working behind the scenes with them by lending her services in complex charms and wand making/repair. She has been with them for a little over a year now, though most don’t even know who she is since she spends less time out on the field working with others and more time in the offices doing the work that most don’t even know is needed.

Wand

9” Oak, Unicorn Tail Hair

Oak signifies wisdom, endurance, protection, and authority. Your unicorn's tail hair core means that you are pure of heart and care deeply for your loved ones.

Patronus

Fox - Patience, wisdom, intelligence, adaptability. Fox people can be high strung or exceedingly calm, charismatic or mysterious, prone to stand out or blend in, keep peace or make mischief. They tend to be partially rooted in the spirit world, living day to day in sort of a 'world between'. Foxes are a strong symbol of femininity, shape-shifting, illusion, and magic.
