[Full Character Name:] Karina Vivien Morandi
[Character Gender:] Female
[Country of Citizenship:]England, United Kingdom
[Blood-line:] Half-blood
[Birthday:] April 4
[Mother:] Clara Morandi
[Father:] Paul Morandi
[Physical Character Description:] Soft light skin complimented by dark brown hair brushed by chocolate eyes. The rest of her hair delicately falls down to Karina’s shoulders. However sometimes she likes to put different color strips in it. Has a thin body with natural curves that do not seem to increase with an appetite as large as Karina’s. Supposedly the girl has a fast metabolism that won’t slow up any day soon. So to put it simply, the girl knows she’s cute but would rather not flaunt about the castle with that knowledge. Her smile is like a blast of sunshine and could hypnotize anyone depending who anyone was.
Clothes, Karina loves to dress up when it comes to parties or just going out but nothing too flamboyant. But when it comes to just wandering around the castle and normal everyday things, she will just wear jeans and a t-shirt along with black sneakers or boots. Of course, that is when she doesn’t have to wear the Hogwarts uniform.
[Personality Character Description:] Karina or Kari loves to have fun while away from home. It could be anything such as music, dance or hanging out with friends. Loves to talk and associate with those in her own age group but doesn’t mind adults too much. Karina tends to be a bit moody if things are not going well and can also be stubborn about any issue that comes her way. If someone says something she believes is not true, Karina has a tendency to speak her mind whether appropriate or inappropriate.
Normally Kari likes to be nice. You’re nice to her she will be nice to you. However if you end up on her target list, don’t be surprised to find yourself in a leg-locker curse by the end of the day.
[History:] Karina’s history begins in Glasgow, Scotland where she was born on April 4, not a very spectacular beginning but oh well. Her parents were Clara and Paul Morandi, a fairly wealthy family with high regard in the wizarding world. That always proved well when it came to connections but that also meant being forced to attended a lot of boring grown up parties while growing up. But in order to maintain these connections the Morandi parents would frequently travel to work.
There would always be a few governesses coming over to take care of Karina but they would not last for too long considering she could be a bit of a troublemaker just to work their last nerves. Putting toads in their beds and Dungbombs in soup were just two things the little girl would use. Now, even if her babysitters would say Karina was a little monster that could never be proven since she behaved like an angel for everyone else. Anyway, part of the reason young little Karina behaved in such a way was because these women were trying to civilize her so to speak. Always stand up straight, watch your poise, do not speak in such a tone around guests blah blah blah. Boring right? Well, she loved to dress us and all but when the grown up started fussing about all those things life was very dull.
Always home schooled by private tutors before getting an acceptance letter from Hogwarts at eleven years old, Karina was taught English and French and is fluent in both languages. Unfortunately one interest the girl developed was Quidditch. Strongly against the sort, Mr. and Mrs. Morandi tried to prevent their daughter from taking part in such a barbaric sport but were unsuccessful. Tried as they did, Kari always managed to sneak outside and practice flying whenever no one was watching. Fortunately, her uncle Joe approved of Kari’s interest and sent her a broom to practice with. Mind, the girl does not have natural talent on a broom and is not too sure what position she is best in. She still practices to try and get better.
By the age of eleven, Karina got her acceptance into Hogwarts School of Witchcraft and Wizardry. She was ecstatic over the letter’s arrival and could not wait to board the train to the historic school. Actually, the fact it was a good school was a reason to be excited but not the reason. To tell the truth, she just wanted to be away from her parents. Upon her arrival, the school became much more than that it became her home. The castle was a lot more than what was expected to the young eleven year old.
[Pros and Cons:] Pros…pros, lets see, well Kari loves music and sketching and just so happens to be good in those. It took several years to find a instrument that would be good for their daughter, but the Morandis finally found on: the violin. Even though she spends most of the year at Hogwarts and rarely finds an opportunity to play, sometimes she will sneak off and start playing in private.
Sketching, when it comes to that Kari considers herself alright. She is not going to be the next Van Gogh or anything. Drawing is only for pleasure or if extremely bored. But she does have a few nice pictures of the castle. Just don’t be surprised if you find Kari sitting up in a tree holding a sketch pad staring off into space.
Now we begin the weaknesses (which we all have) One would be patience or lack thereof. The girl does not like to be kept waiting for an extended amount of time. Also the same thing goes for people no matter what the circumstance. Basically, Kari could burst at anytime. However she is still trying to sort out that problem. Kari is also stubborn as discussed before. Surprisingly, Karina can be a little shy around certain areas. Not necessarily guys, but more toward showing talents and does not like to be criticized too much on anything.
[Role Playing Example:]
Not a cloud was in the sky as the sun radiantly streamed in through the windows of the girl’s dormitories. Fortunately for Kari she kept her covers over her face so to keep the annoying light out. Why did it have to be so bright? But that was none of her concern since the girl was yet again lost in dream land. So peaceful, until a familiar voice came in and pulled the covers off.
“Kari! What are you doing? You slept through breakfast and class is going to start in 15 minutes. Wake up already.”
“Leave me alone Lizzie. I’m tired.” Kari moaned shoving her pillow on her face. Then without any warning, the girl was hanging upside down in the air by an ankle. Not this again… “That’s it, you are so dead! I told you to stop that!”
“Stop doing what? I didn’t do anything?” Lizzie said innocently sending Karina falling back on her bed and heading out the door. Karina grabbed her own wand and made to chase after her friend but realized one tiny detail: she was still in her pjs.
“Damn it…” she muttered. Running over to her trunk Kari pulled out her uniform and changed as quickly as she could without falling all over herself. Today was off to a great start and would get even better when her stomach would start going off in class due to missing breakfast. Wonder if she could make it till noon without cracking. But first things first, since Kari hated having levicorpus performed on her it was payback time. Nothing to bad of course just a jelly leg jinx or something. Why did Lizzie like to test her this early in the morning was a complete mystery.
