10 Words to describe your character: poised, quiet, confident, strong, cunning, elitist, moody, independant, manipulative, unusual.
EXTENDED APPLICATION -- PLEASE DO AT LEAST A PARAGRAPH ON EACH OF THESE, UNLESS THEY ARE STATED TO BE OPTIONAL
Personality: Belladonna is in the simple sense; a snob. She lives her life looking down on those around her, and finding only kindness for those who she believes are equal to her, by that by blood, class, and of course, manners. Belladonna adheres to her own beliefs, and while she appears content to run with the crowd (especially the other 6th year Slytherin girls), she is very much her own person with her own opinions and idea's. Belladonna just prefers to keep her deep thoughts private.
Strengths: Both magical and personality:
Belladonna is a extremely talented flyer, in fact it is her favourite thing to do and she excels at it. She is extremely talented at Defense Against the Dark Art and has a easy time picking up offensive spells and charms. Belladonna also has an affinity for Divination and while she's not going to be getting any 'visions' any time soon (or EVER!), she tends to pretty accurate when scrying. Belladonna has a habit of picking and chosing what she likes to learn, and once a topic is chosen she pursues the knowledge with every fiber of her being. She's extremely driven to get what she wants. She's a talented liar and manipulator and finds nothing wrong with using people for what she wants. Belladonna's academic interests are purely for fun as she plans to be a doting wife. That doesn't mean she ignores her studies, she's extremely driven to prove herself to be worthy of her class standing.
Weaknesses: Both magical and personality:
Belladonna hates working with her hands, while she enjoys wand-work, the touching animals or plants is at the bottom of her 'fun' list, hence Herbology has always been one of her worst classes, not from a lack of knowledge, but simply a hatred of plants. History of Magic was always a snooze-fest and Belladonna would spend the class practicing Charms or Jinx instead of listening to Professor Binns drone on. She would not take Care of Magical Creatures because she has no like for animals, she would not take Muggle Studies because she doesn't care about muggles or their strange ways. Belladonna's only interest with potions revolved around the fact that she could make a potion to help with clearing up a pimple (when she had any), or for other small things, and never beyond that, I mean, she could just buy one if she decided.
Fears: Belladonna is extremely concious of what others see her as, and while she has no outward appearance of caring, she fears appearing less than perfect in anyone's eyes, and therefore works very hard to be perfect in everything that matters to her. Belladonna is also slightly germophobic.
History: Belladonna's father lived under the iron thumb of his wife and did whatever she wanted until he died when Bella was 4, she doesn't really remember him and has been raised by her strong mother since. Belladonna grew up in Scotland her mother moved Belladonna to a prestigious Wizarding community/neighbourhood after her fathers death. She had private tutors who taught her to read, write, and arithmatic. Her childhood was in Belladonna's mind -perfect-. Belladonna hated other children and rarely showed any kindness to others, she found children to be dirty and her mother often remarked she didn't have a child but a grown woman.
Belladonna's mother always demanded the best from Bella and would not accept excuses, Belladonna's OWL's are a reflection of understanding how important appearances are to her mother, Belladonna did what she had to to pass those classes which her mother demanded, and let the two her mother didn't care about fall to the side.
Belladonna received as a gift at her 10th birthday a sycamore wand, inscribed into it are old protection markings, Belladonna had to wait until hogwarts to finally use the wand. It was given by her grandmother on her father's side, a elderly woman who Belladonna saw little of due to her mother's disallowing much contact. Belladonna treasures the wand which is actually a wand used by her fathers father and purchased ages ago for his schooling at Hogwarts.
Physical Description: At the least, provide base details of build, height, eye/hair colour, and complexion. Thin, not well endowed, longer face with pointed chin, high cheekbones, long black hair, wide blue/green eyes, clear complexion. Height 5'5ish.
Significant Relationships:
