[ Physical Character Description: ] Angelique likes to think that she doesn't stand out. In her opinion she is rather plain looking, but in reality she is a rather attractive girl. Her long thick light brown hair is usually worn in a ponytail in order to keep it out of her pretty oval shaped face. She has brown almond shaped eyes that are set far apart, with extremely shapely eyebrows that most would be jealous of. She has pouty full lips, with a tinge of pink.
She's tall for her age about 5'9 which she hates because people look at her funny like there's something wrong with her. Angel's a healthy size, not too thin not big, just right, with a shapely figure. She doesn't go out of her way to show off her body simply because she doesn't like a lot of attention drawn on her, so she tries to wear clothes that hide under bulky sweaters, baggy jeans, over larger t-shirts and long loose skirts. Angel has long shapely legs, an extremely narrow waist
[ Personality Character Description: ] Angelique is a bookworm plain and simple. Give her something to read anything at all and she'll read it. Most of the time if you can't find her she's somewhere in a corner wrapped up in a book. She's extremely intelligent, her studies are very important to her.
She is also a very passionate, of course about her work in school, but about her family and friends as well. She would do anything for them to protect them and be there for them when they needed her.
She's a great listener and knows how to make people feel comfortable. She's one to shell out advice if she feels that it's warranted.
Also, she isn't one that should be underestimated either, she may appear shy and sometimes demure but underneath that there is a tiger waiting to pounce if provoked. She will voice her opinion and she will tell anyone off who even thinks of disrespecting her.
She also tends to enjoy the outdoors feeling the breeze in her hair is something that could make her whole day complete.
[ History: ] Angelique Cane was born on July 4th to Kendall and Jonathan Cane. To most in the wizarding world the date of July 4th meant nothing, but to muggles the world around it was a day of celebration. Watching the tele she noticed all the celebrations taking place in different parts of the world marking that historic day. When she was younger she used to think all of that fan fare was for her, especially when she turned four and did her bit of magic. She had always known she was different even though she couldn't explain it. So when she turned her teddy bear into a flower she squealed with delight and ran to try and tell her parents. That's when she saw them watching the TV and all the pretty colors from the fireworks. She thought they were all for her that was at least until she was 6 and she realized that July 4th was just another day at least for her.
Other than that there's nothing that remarkable about Angel her parents had explained to her that she was a witch as were the two of them. They told her that when she was old enough she would be going to their old Alma Mater.
When she learned of this Angel found every book she could get her hands on reading up on the wizarding world outside Blackpool. Then on the day of her eleventh birthday, as was tradition she and her parents were watching the fireworks on the tele when a beautiful owl swooped in with a letter addressed to Angel. She already knew what it was and she spent the rest of the day reading it over and over, having the book list memorized by the time she was told to go to bed.
Her books were bought on the very next day, and by the time her parents had taken her to the train station on September the first she had already read all of them and was anxious to get some more first hand knowledge.
Her first year had passed by pretty uneventfully, she had just been trying to get her bearings learning all she could learn about the school and the classes. She did fairly well excelling in certain subjects while struggling with a few which by the end she managed to pull through quite nicely.
Her next two years taught her a bit more about herself and what she was capable of, school became a bit easier and she was beginning to excel at most of her classes. She also began to become more social trying to make friends when she wasn't busy studying.
During her fourth year she became a bit more interested in the game of Quidditch a sport that was extremely popular at school. Thoughts of trying out for the team played raptly in Angel's mind but she was partially shy and she didn't think she could bear people watching her and the thought of being told no. So instead she decided to get a jump on studying for her exams coming up in her fifth year.
[ Special talents/knacks : ] Alexis is very strong willed and strong minded once she sets her mind to something she will stop at nothing to achieve the ends she desires. She can also be a bit absentminded, worrying so much about her studies and other such things she tends to forget some important things. People think she's weak most of the time and she actually likes it that way, the more people underestimate her the more of an advantage she has over them.
[Role Playing Example:] Angel walked into the Great Hall after a fitful nights sleep. After spending an hour trying to hide the bags under her eyes and she gave it up as a bad job. So opening the door she made her way for her house table. There were those who nodded to her, some who waved, and some who said hello. Trying to pretend that she was in a better mood than she was she smiled the fakest smile she could muster.
Trying to find a seat that was not near anyone she scanned the table for several moments until just such an opening appeared. Making her way quickly toward it. Sitting down she pulled a plate in front of her and loaded it with eggs, bacon and a bit of toast. Tucking in she reveled in the taste of breakfast.
After she was done, she sat there quietly thinking of the dream she had had. It was just weird, and something about it made the hairs on the back of her neck stand up, but for some reason she couldn't seem to remember the details. Trying to hold onto it had been like trying to hold onto water in the palm of your hand. No matter how hard you tried it just slipped away.
Hearing hustling and bustling around her she realized with a start that breakfast was over. She was one of the only students left in the Great Hall, getting up quickly she picked up her bag from the floor and headed off to her first lesson.
