APPEARANCE:
Roxie is not your typical girl, no matter how you look at her. Her hair is an ordinary brown, but she keeps it cut short and choppy. The rest of her is very average, physically: she is about 5’8” tall and thin. Her eyes are a deep chocolate brown, large, and very expressive. Roxie doesn’t wear make-up, though, except on special occasions, so whatever you see when you see her in the halls is the real her.

She is usually dressed either very masculine, or feminine with a masculine twist. She really isn’t a fan of skirts, favoring the freedom of movement allowed by trousers, so under every school uniform she dons a pair of shorts. Usually Roxie is smiling, or laughing, but she has her days when her face remains neutral, and almost looks sad.

FACE CLAIM: Shannyn Sossamon

PERSONALITY DESCRIPTION:
Roxie is... something else. A very lively character, she has trouble sitting still for too long. She is under the impression that anyone can be friends with anyone so long as they try hard enough. A firm believer of ‘free love’ she would probably be a hippie, if she wasn’t a witch. Roxie is pretty outgoing and isn’t afraid to start up conversations with random people, or have strange or awkward conversations with her friends. She is very liberal, and very blunt – two traits which have gotten her in trouble in the past. Her sense of humor, combined with her bluntness, also has a habit of getting her into trouble; she is sarcastic to no end, though usually her words hold no venom behind them.

Roxie is a strong advocate of gender equality, and demonstrates this with her clothes and mannerisms. She despises skirts and will always change into trousers immediately after classes are over, if not just wearing them under her uniform skirt. She is more comfortable being ‘one of the guys’ than she is fussing over make-up.

She is also quite intelligent, but finds it hard to make herself sit still long enough to study. She is prone to random bouts of song and dance, despite her issues with carrying a tune.

BOGGART: being ridiculed for being herself
PATRONUS: a fennec fox
HOPES FOR THE FUTURE: To become a nurse, with a large family of her own

SPECIAL ABILITIES: earning herself weird looks
BLOOD: muggle
BIRTHPLACE: Romania
MY FAMILY:

Claudia (mother, Italian muggle) age 42
Sandu (father, Romanian muggle) age 44
Ilie (brother, muggle) age 20
Nicu (brother, muggle) age 22
Silvia (sister, unknown) age 9

WHATS IN THE PAST: Having grown up in the rural areas of two countries, when Roxie was little her main companions were her two older brothers. Roxie learned how to hunt and run and fish and generally get dirty right alongside them. She’s never been as strong as her brothers, but it was never made into a big deal that she was a girl. Her family is not rich, but they are by no means poor; they can afford most anything they want, they just prefer simpler surroundings.

Roxie attended muggle primary schools in both Romania and England for a few years until she received her Hogwarts letter. Once she received it, her family’s initial reaction was that it was a joke, but after investigating a bit discovered the truth of her situation. Having never spent the night away from her family, boarding school would be a large obstacle for Roxie as well as her family.

At Hogwarts her friendly personality developed further and she was able to quickly make friends. Nearly always smiling, Roxie has earned herself friends from all over the school. She still misses her family horribly, but they keep in touch and it is continually getting easier to go back to school.

RP EXAMPLE:\
"I hate these bloody things.. stupid uniform..." Roxie muttered to herself as she made her way up the stairs from the common room. She had just finished her classes, and now was going to change out of the blasted fiend called a skirt first thing, like she did every day.

Upon reaching her dorm, Roxie ripped off her skirt before she even heard the door close behind her. After she was out of it, she finished walking to her bed and tossed her skirt onto her trunk. Then she started looking for her jeans.

Her jeans were playing games with her, though. Laundry had been taken that morning, and while Roxie knew she had more than what was sent to be washed, she couldn't find them. Flinging herself across her bed, as it was faster than walking around it, Roxie checked in the bottom drawer of her nightstand - she stored stray clothes in there sometimes. Not finding them even there, Roxie let out an exasperated breath and decided to check under her bed. It was the last place she could think of.

Still laying on her bed, Roxie scooted forward until she could reach under the blanket hanging over the side.

"Eureka!" Roxie shouted, rather silly of her, since no one was in the dorm besides her and her voice was strangled from hanging upside down. Reaching towards the beloved trousers, Roxie froze as she heard the door open. Here she was, arse up in the air, and someone was coming into the dorm. It wouldn't be anything new, one of her dorm mates seeing her in her skivvies, it was mostly the position that was catching Roxie.

Quickly reaching a bit further and grabbing her pants, Roxie pulled herself out from under the bed and tumbled forward off the bed into a somersault that left her right-side-up. There was no way she'd have been able to get up back onto her bed from how far she'd been hanging forward, so going down was the only other option.

Yanking the jeans over her legs, Roxie stood up as she finished buttoning them, laughing sheepishly.

ANSWER: the scene in the room with all the stuff in it, with draco and the fire and flying and whatnot.
OTHER: fwah *lacadasical hang gesture* how're my spaces this time?
