PET: A brown owl spotted with white on the chest. Her name is Paige.

APPEARANCE: Few could ever hope to reach this girl's height on their tippytoes as Nyx towers over the majority of fifth years at an impressive height of 5'11". This trait a gift from the faint giant ancestry beating through that heart of hers. Athletic would be the best way to describe her body type, doing justice to the defined, lean muscles on her frame from the rolling biceps to the curved calves of her legs. Prime for a beater in quidditch, there is no doubt to the power she can put behind a swing with the bat or with her fists. The combination of faint giant and veela blood created an almost normal mix of a girl without excessive hairiness, a tall strong body, large hands, and some deceptively feminine features sculpted from (periodically bruised) olive skin.

Chestnut hair curls around her neck and ears, cropped short under the gray golfer's cap she is almost constantly wearing. Sometimes it rests back, exposing her liquid green eyes, and other times it's tugged forward in a fight to shadow them. A unique shade that is mostly emerald and hardly blue, these tender eyes are something to marvel at when they're smiling at you. The curve of her brow defines the lines of her button nose, and finally end in a wide-lipped, full mouth.

They couldn't find a skirt long enough to be appropriate, and Nyx wouldn't have worn it anyway, so she's never seen in a female's uniform. Instead she's settled comfortably into the male uniform that's fitted her like a second skin since her first hear. Long pants, white shirt, vest, tie, cloak, it's all the same. During the winters and autumn she enjoys the comfort of a scarf, of the gloves. Springs carry with them the absence of vest and cloak, but she always, always-

Has her tie undone. Unless someone ties it for her.

Now, something so prominent to her person is her accent that sticks out like a sore thumb. Heavy Australian mixed with heavy British accents make a lot of the words coming out of her mouth... Interesting, to say the least. Another theory is she's just too lazy to articulate. Who knows?
FACE CLAIM: Nora Zehetner

PERSONALITY DESCRIPTION: Nyx is as dynamic as the next girl, reacting to things differently depending on situations and how she feels at the time. Generally, she's just a gentle giant with a passion for all things small (except for slugs!), all things musical, and all things fun. She's modest, kind, ferociously protective, tender, simple, but also a little hot headed. She's rather easy to get along with and is incredibly loyal to her friends. Intense conversations tend to be over her head though, as she's a bit dull witted and doesn't seem to retain information well. It could be a sign of the giant inside, or perhaps too many concussions from all the fights she gets into.

The tall teen tends to break into a lot of fights when others pick on the subjects of her intelligence, family, friends, or professors. There has been a time or two when she's broken out on the quidditch field after taunting gone a little too far, and in the hallway when a bully just didn't feel like giving up their prey. Single-minded in the more severe events, Nyx gets lost in what she's doing and normally has to be physically restrained from her attack if not already blasted away by her opponent's superior wand-wielding.

Nyx always tries hard, but is only able to perform simple spells without assistance. This makes her very self conscious and self depreciating at times. All she needs is a little help from her friends during these times.

BOGGART: A giant slug. Yeah yeah, laugh now... Just you wait 'til it gets you with it's slimy slugginess!
PATRONUS: Big ol' Grizzly Bear.
HOPES FOR THE FUTURE: She wants to be an Auror, but understands that might not be the case. She'd be pleased to have a music career.

SPECIAL ABILITIES: The uncanny ability to get into a fight, finish a fight, and scram before a teacher shows up. Usually, anyway. And she can play the guitar.
BLOOD: Mostly human, with traces of giant from her dad's side and veela from her mother's.
BIRTHPLACE: Australia
MY FAMILY:

-Mommy [37]
-Daddy[43]

WHATS IN THE PAST: Her parents met in Britain under strange circumstances; Illume (mother) lost her ring down the drain on the street and Jacob (father) took the time to sacrifice his gum (recently started, too!) and a lace from his shoe to rescue the costume jewelry from down below. Beyond that, they hit it off as an unlikely couple; the pretty blond with blue eyes and the big ol' hairy guy with eyes green as the Irish hills. Years went by and things were going so well that the big guy asked his wife to marry him. (How sweet!) A year later, Nyx was born, and she's been rockin' the cradle ever since. With the rise of He-who-must-not-be-named, they moved to Australia.
As a pipsqueak the cute, tall girl loved to wrestle with the boys, play in the dirt, and kick some serious butt at soccer. Her mother was slightly frustrated, having expected a little girl's hair to braid flowers in, but couldn't erase the fondness she had for her very rambunctious, sweetheart of a child who protected the little girls and boys from the big kids. Jacob couldn't have been more proud.
More years went by before the family moved back to Britain for the soul purpose of Nyx having the same opportunities at Hogwarts as they did. Upon her eleventh birthday she received her letter and Hogwarts has been housing the powerful girl ever since. Excluding holidays, of course.

Her first years at Hogwarts were interesting to say the least. The young girl came crawling from the boats in a brand new boy’s uniform, grinning under the cover of darkness as she entered the school for the first time. The awe and amazement was temporarily disrupted by a scandalized McGonagal, who discovered the girl in the boy’s swag. The first week was spent in detentions due to Nyx’s steadfast determination to dress how she liked. During this time she also owled her parents to give her advice and maybe a permission slip for her uniform. These things were received, and Nyx went to meet with Dumbledore to plead her case. “As part Veela, ‘tis less o’a distraction fer me te’ cover up my legs. T’will also keep th’boys away.” Her wish was granted under the idea that it would spare her the unwanted attention of boys. To this day she happily wears the boy’s uniform.
Beyond the uniform incident there were numerous instances of fights, detentions, hospital wing visits, and barely passing grades. Nyx really does try hard though, and the only reason she hasn’t been expelled is because is because she rarely ever starts the fights, even if she does finish them.

|{ OTHER INFO }

RP EXAMPLE: Bent at the knee, resting over the other leg that tucked up comfortably with the ankle secured by the heel the long limbs supported the contour of her acoustic guitar. Expert fingers danced along the neck and plucked the string with the triangular pick in her right hand. Her hands were beautiful in the moonlight, seeming to dance to the music created from the instrument as they moved with elegance and power.

It was the night before she would board the Hogwarts express for her fifth year and the moon was shining bright in a crystal clear sky. Her eyes looked up at the sky as she played, seeming to glow in the reflection of the powerful white light. She chewed the scab off her lip habitually and licked the copper split with regret. Chewing them open always meant they had to close up again.

"Took th'midnigh' train goin' an-y-where." Came the tune that only seemed appropriate. It had trains, and Hogwarts was a destination anywhere. It held it's place, but it was undiscovered with only one train in and one train out. Her voice merged with the silence of the night, coming in smoothly without a ripple in sound. It was a lovely tenor that sometimes rose up to reach a clean alto. Nyx paused, then set her guitar on her lap to stare out into the night.

Illume opened the door behind her and looked at her rough daughter fondly. "Nyx... Come along darling. You need to get some sleep."

"Alrigh' mum." Long legs stretched out and she came upon them steadily. Another moment was taken just gazing at the sky, and a grin flickered over her wide lips. "S'another year." They whispered, and a breeze picked up as if in response. Nyx went inside.
ANSWER: Tonks' death! My heart just about broke and I almost starting crying like a freakin' baby!

Well I think you could use a bit more history, but it's good enough for me! ^_^ Welcome to the site!!

ACCEPTED BY SAM

[SORTING HAT]

Hi Coley, I was hoping you could actually add more to your History. You should also know that the dress code would be enforced at Hogwarts. If you'd like her to keep the attire, you should probably mention dentitions she's been given and a private talk with Dumbledore about it later on, allowing her to wear the clothing she wished.

I must say I disagree with Hufflepuff. I say Gryffindor. Since we're at a disagreement, I'm afraid all five staff members will need to agree on a House. Please read over the application carefully before making a decision.

[Alexander Thomas]

I'd have to say I'm extremely torn between Hufflepuff and Gryffindor myself. Whilst she is extremely loyal (essentially a Hufflepuff trait), it is also mentioned that she has the capacity to be hot-headed and has been in many a fight over many a thing, which I think typefies a Gryffindor personality. Her childhood spent wrestling with boys and playing in the dirt also makes me think Gryffindor, for some reason. xD

Actually, so does the fact that she's really single-minded...I think it's another way of saying that she's determined/tenacious, and to me that's also rather Gryffindor. Come to think of it, her Gryffindor traits in my mind far outweigh the Hufflepuff ones, and so I'd have to say I'm thinking...

[superfudge]

Lots of things stood out here for Gryffindor, namely "ferociously protective, tender, simple, but also a little hot headed. She's rather easy to get along with"
