She doesn’t heal the greatest and she scars very easily. overall appearance • Honestly, either Cora will be in her workout gear or she’ll be in the uniform for her Quidditch team. Aside from that, she tends to dress a little more on the alternative side. Often being seen sporting a pair of dark blue or black skinny jeans, as well as any sort of muggle band tee when she doesn’t have to be in class or doing anything school related. She also loves wearing lose fitting tank tops paired with an even loser fitting cardigan. Cora lives for the days that she can wear her sneakers and not the shoes that she’s forced to wear for her uniform. As far as her makeup goes, she doesn’t wear much when she’s playing, but on the weekends she enjoys to rock a dark eye makeup with heavy liner, she’s clearly been influenced by the muggles that she grew up around and with. the personality likes • muggle music, being able to express how creative she is, reading any and all books whether their muggle or magic, dancing like no one’s watching, flying. dislikes • potions, transfiguration, not being able to be creative, bullies, losing whether it’s a game or an argument, liars. strengths • very confident, isn’t afraid to be herself, knows how to stand her ground, laughs easily, very honest. weaknesses • very blunt, tells it how it is, lacks a filter sometimes, can be hot headed, lacks empathy at times. dreams • Winning the Quidditch World Cup. It’s a long shot for her, but she wants it so badly. She wants to be able to say that she would have made her father proud. fears • Small confined spaces. Cora had an issue in her fourth year when she got involved in an intense prank war, which lead to her getting trapped in a wardrobe for hours and no one knowing she was in there. overall personality • A creative person, Coralie is also someone who tends to keep how she feels bottled up and then will snap when the smallest thing sets her off. She loves to be able to express herself and how she feels, but she also wants to be able to prove herself to others and she does try to fit in. For the longest time, she didn't let people get to her and she didn't care what they thought, but after sort of being in the more public eye, she's been a little more careful. Coralie also suffers from anxiety and panic attacks, though she keeps this to herself so she won't have to worry anyone. She's a very loyal person and if you need her at three in the morning, you can be sure that she'll do her damn best to be there for you. She isn't one to leave anyone behind or leave anyone out. Even though she's had a few bad things happen to her in her lifetime, Coralie is always trying to smile and trying to make someone's day better, but she's also not above playing a few practical jokes every now and then. the history father • Tristan Andrew Grant. 46. Deceased mother • Beatrice Felicity Grant . 42. Healer. siblings • Rolo Liam Grant. 20. Curse Breaker. important people/pets • Scottish Fold - Henry hometown • Bristol, UK overall history • I could give you the run down on my parents, but let’s be honest here. This is about me, still I’ll give you the bare minimum for details. My mother, Beatrice, is a healer. She knew from a young age that was always what she wanted to be. Even with the war that broke out, she still managed to get one of the highest scores on her N.E.W.T.s and pursue her dream career. My father however, he’s not a wizard. No he’s a muggle that my mother met in a pub somewhere. I guess they loved each other, a year later he asked her to marry him and she found out she was pregnant with my older brother. Rolo was born in April and by the sounds of it, was a little easier to handle than myself. It was late in July when I made my appearance into the world. Not only was I a fuss for my mother, I would only ever settle down for my father. I think that was when we all learned who I’d be closer to growing up. I love my mother dearly, but dad and I always just connected more than I did with her. I kind of made it my life’s mission when I was a child to annoy the snot out of my brother, I did it all in good fun though. Don’t tell him this, but I’ve always looked up to him. He’s one of the more important people in my life. God, the adventures we’d have over the summer were my absolute favorite! The memories we made, the fact that I was able to drag out my brother to go on countless adventures of getting lost together, those are the memories I like to dwell on. Much like my mother and brother, I showed that I had magic. I didn’t exactly explode a flower pot, but I did manage to knock over an entire book shelf, oops. Once I could read at a higher level, I’d read the spell books and school books that Rolo was reading with him and once he left for Hogwarts, I found myself reading them alone. That was when my dad would read with me, it was when I learned I loved everything about books. It was also then that my dad and I would stay up late reading anything, everything. We read everything from Tale of Beedle the Bard to The Chronicles of Narnia. Dad and I were able to escape to other worlds and times all because of words written on paper. My brother is my absolute best friend, so you can imagine how excited I was when I got my letter and went off to the same school that he was at. We weren’t sorted into the same house, but that didn’t mean that we didn’t spend loads of time together. I often got home sick in the beginning and that was when I would find myself curled up on the couch in the common room, reading. It brought me back that familiar feeling that I needed. I had to often pull Rolo away from the school, get him out there in the world. I of course, meddled in his life and managed to get him to make a few friends here and there. I’m not too short of friends in the school. Apparently I have a rather out-going personality and I’m not afraid to be who I am. With me being there with Rolo, we could have our adventures again even if it would only be for three shorts years. I also discovered my love of Quidditch while in my second year. During a flying lesson, I learned how much I love being in the air, feeling the wind whip around my face and through my hair. I didn’t make the team until my fourth year, but when I did my gosh, it was the best feeling in the world. And getting to play my first game… it was even better than I could have imagined! I was happy, I was truly happy and content with what I was doing. My fourth year also meant that my brother would be leaving and jumping into the work world. It wasn’t super fun having him leave the school, but I’m still pretty proud of him. Being in my seventh year, it had been a bit of a rough go at it. My dad passed away, it was sudden. A heart attack at work. I didn’t know how to cope or what to do. I hadn’t seen him since before I left for the start of the new school year. It had been months since I had seen him and he just died… so suddenly. I was a wreck when I got the news, and was sent back home for a couple of weeks. I miss him so much every day more and more it seems. I’m managing and doing a lot better now. It hasn’t been easy, but I have friends and family to lean on. After I graduated, I was offered a position with the Chudley Cannons and while I hate my captain and how hard he drills us most of the time, I guess I can sort of see that he does it to make us better. I mean, I spend most of my time sleeping when I get home from practice and more often than not I feel like I may cry with how much of an ass he is, but I get it. I just want to be able to make my father proud, to make my team proud. I want to be someone that a ten year old Cora would look up to. the role player alias • nibbler, nibbles or nibbs c: age • twenty-one pronouns • she/her code • sherbert lemon other characters • none yet! |
