Callie | 25 comments
Name: Calliope 'Callie' Atkins

Gender: Female

Species: Human

Age: 11

Student Year: 1st (September 1st)

Position: N/A

House: Ravenclaw

Hatstall: Hufflepuff

Blood status: Muggleborn?

They aren't completely sure as to what her birth parents are.

Appearance: She's a slender girl with long poofy white-blond hair, dark grey eyes, a pale complexion and rather sharp, pointed features. She's of average height for her age and can usually be found wearing a black leather jacket over her school uniform. She can always be seen wearing a necklace that was given to her by her mother, who isn't her actual birth mother but one of the first women who adopted her. When not wearing her school uniform, she can be found wearing something stylish but comfortable and she considers her aesthetic to be a mixture between grunge and hippie along with the jacket and necklace mentioned before.

(view spoiler)

Face Claim: Jenny Humphrey/ Taylor Momsen

Personality: She's well-informed, smart, organized, and efficient and she often appears like a know-it-all. She has an eye for detail which can make her become compulsive. She's creative, intelligent, and observant. She has a realistic perspective and this helps her to be patient but it also makes her brutally honest which can make people think that she doesn't care about their feelings which just isn't true; she just has a hard time demonstrating how she feels and saying the right thing. She actually has a lot of potentials but tends to hold herself back with the fear of being overindulgent or ostentatious. She has incredible insight but has a hard time trusting her instincts. She's very curious and an incredible listener but because people find her so trusting and often use her as an outlet for their problems she allows herself to take on the burden of their problems instead of taking care of herself. She has a sense of moral integrity that's greater than most, is self-motivated and a natural caregiver for others and tries to seek out the balance for everyone except herself.

History:

Callie has no actual memory of her birth parents, but sometimes she has these weird flashbacks that she feels like has to do with them. She tries to ignore them because she feels like she's never going to be able to find out about them as it was a closed adoption and she feels like if she were to focus on them too much it would lead to her becoming obsessed with them and that's not what she wants. Plus there's the whole idea that they abandoned her for whose not what reasons and the whole why should I care about people who didn't care about me?

Callie was adopted when she was eight years old by Stella Atkins, a teacher and a journalist for their local newspaper. At that point, Callie had been in several abusive homes and as a teacher, Stella noticed something wasn't right and saw that it was her duty to fix it. Callie stayed with Stella for a few months as Stella had a license to foster children and the courts allowed it to happen because it was what Callie wanted. After those few months were up, Stella asked Callie if she could adopt her, Callie said yes, and they lived together for about three years as a family before Stella ended up getting murdered. The murder was never found and Callie was sent back into the foster care for a little bit before Stella's brother ended up agreeing to take her in, although he blamed her for Stella's death.

She's only been living with her Uncle's family for a few months but already she knows that she wants to get out of there as soon as possible. When an owl shows up with her letter, she figures it's her chance. Her Uncle agrees to her going because he thinks it's for the best and that it would have been what his sister wanted but he dropped her off at Diagon Alley and left her on her own.

Now she's entering her first year of Hogwarts and she's both excited and terrified. Her 11th birthday was on the 1st day of Hogwarts, so she got a bit of a late start to the school year.

Birth Dad- ???- Unknown to her (Closed Adoption)

Adopted Mom- Stella Atkins- Deceased

- She adopted Callie when she was five years old after Callie had been in several abusive homes. They met because she was Callie's teacher and she noticed that something wasn't right. Stella was also a journalist. She was murdered three years after she adopted Callie and the murder was never found.

Adopted Aunt- Patricia Roberts

- She's super conceited and just overall full of herself. She named both of her kids after herself and she wants to be an actress/musician someday and believes that it's not too late and she blames her kids, her husband, and most of all Callie for why her dream hasn't come true yet.

Adopted Uncle- John Roberts

- He's Stella's brother and blames Callie for his sister's death. continuously stating that he told her that she should never have adopted a kid with baggage. He agreed to take her in though because he felt he owed it to his sister although he would never admit that out loud because they were never close growing up. He's a businessman.

Adopted Cousin- Patrick Roberts (14)

- He and his sister like to bully Callie. He does it because that's what his parents do and so he thinks it's what he's supposed to do. When he finds out she's a witch, he claims that he always knew something was wrong with her but he's actually scared of her.

Adopted Cousin- Trisha Roberts (8)

- She likes to bully Callie because she blames her for the excuse that she doesn't get her own room (the idea was forced into her head by her parents and brother) and when it's discovered that Callie is a witch she secretly thinks it's cool but continues to bully her because that's the behavior that she's been taught.

Really great Callie! I'd say approved and that you're good to RP! Just watch the typos. And also one little thing, I'm not sure the make of her wand can be griffin bone I think it has to be a type of wood but I'll confirm that with Kim. Minor details though so you're all good!

Also for faceclaim do you mean Jenny Humphrey as in Gossip Girl? :D

Kimberly Brown (guardianwolfkim) | 21435 comments Mod
Typically a wand must be made of wood I have seen some fanfiction’s as well as assumptions about parts of the wand not being only would if that’s the case you can maybe have the handle of the wind be the bone but you do need to include a wood which would be the part that holds the core other than that I hundred percent agree!

Welcome to the family!

Callie | 25 comments It's fine about the wait! I ended up disappearing myself for a little bit haha. But thank you both!

And oops! I used a wand generator for the wand and might've mixed something up/used one that's not accurate. I'll fix it!

And Lexie, yes! I haven't actually seen much of Gossip Girl, other than the little bits I've seen with my sister but I just loved her character with the bits I saw haha

Callie | 25 comments Name: Apollo Lynch

Gender: Male

Species: Human

Age: 13

Student Year: 3rd

Position:

House: Hufflepuff

Hatstall: Ravenclaw

Blood status: Muggleborn

Appearance: Apollo has mid-length curly blonde hair and sharp blue eyes. He’s very tall for his age and is often mistaken to be an older student. He has a scar through one of his eyes and because of that he’s completely blind in that eye. He has another scar across his nose. He’s tan because he spends a lot of time outdoors. He’s really into fashion, although most people wouldn’t guess it, and creates his own clothes and also makes his own school uniforms instead of buying one like most people.

Face Claim:

Personality: Apollo is afraid of his own feelings. He’s scared of getting too close to people so he pushes them away. Most people are uncomfortable around him because of his scars and the fact that he always looks unfriendly. He thinks the fact that he was put into Hufflepuff was a joke, even though he didn’t know much about the houses when he first came. What people don’t know about him is that he’s loyal beyond anything and treats everyone fairly. He’s kind to people who don’t deserve it because he believes that no matter how bad a person may seem, or how bad their actions are, they deserve a second chance because he believes everyone has a little bit of good in them. Even the ones who bullied him and gave him his scars. That’s both his biggest strength and his greatest weakness- his belief of good in others. He’s afraid that he’s never going to be good enough or strong enough or perfect enough. He obsesses over being perfect in everything he does: his classes, his athleticiness, just everything. He wants to be a doctor so that he can heal people who have given up on being healed, so that he could save people to make up for everyone he’s ever lost. When he’s angry, he pushes it down. When he’s sad, he pushes it down. When he’s happy, he pretends he’s not. He pretends he feels nothing, that he is nothing. He wants to be invisible and wishes that nobody would notice him because he just wants to get through life making people happy without them really caring about who made them happy or why. He's really smart and remembers things easily.

History:

In his first year, he was tortured by a group of purebloods for being Muggleborn on his first day. That’s how he got his scars and how he became blind in one eye. It made him afraid of Hogwarts and made him not want to return. He mostly kept to himself and always hid behind crowds of people, never wanting to be alone in case someone wanted to attack him again. He felt like he had to hide who he was, like he didn’t deserve to have friends here because none of them would like him because he wasn’t a full wizard. He knew there were other muggleborns but was afraid of talking to them in case the same people who had bullied him began targeting them.

It was his sister who convinced him to go back to Hogwarts the summer after his first year, saying that it would make him stronger in the end. When his sister died due to cancer, he decided to go back as it was her last wish. His father died when he was younger and so he was raised by a single mother who was an alcoholic. She was often abusive, both emotionally and physically. He allowed her to hurt him because he blamed himself for both his father’s death because his mother said that she was distracted with taking care of him and his sister’s death because he couldn’t raise enough money for her treatment. He developed an eating disorder while trying to raise money for his sister because he starved himself to provide for his family. He worked a lot of odd jobs because no regular place would hire him because he was so young. When she died, he became obsessed with controlling his weight because he felt like he couldn’t control anything else in his life.

In his second year, he became obsessed with his academics. He knew that he wanted to be a doctor and was scared of failure, so he did all of his assignments before they were due and begged his teachers to give him more work. He was still obsessed with his weight and barely ate anything and exercised a lot. He allowed people to beat him up for no reason and didn’t fight back. He was used to the pain from his mother. He was called all sorts of names and he didn’t say anything. In fact, he hasn’t said anything since his sister died except to his teachers.

When he came home from Hogwarts after his second year there, he came home to his mother’s dead body. She had committed suicide. There was no note, no message, nothing. He didn’t cry. He didn’t get angry. He felt numb. Empty. He called the cops, and spoke a few words. He ended up in a group home. Then he ended up in the hospital for his eating disorder as he hadn’t eaten since he found his mother. He didn’t speak. Not to the doctors or the therapists or to anyone. When it was time to go back to school, he simply broke out of the hospital.

Now it’s his third year. What happens next is still to be decided.
