Name of Ability or Race/Talent that you Are Applying for: Calming presence
Word count: 437
Describe why this fits your character (not why you the player want it): With her over-dramatic sister, Juliette, constantly being in hysterics about something (most often upcoming play auditions, who said what about who, and school), her mother distressed about work or family, or whatever else was on her mind, as she found raising three children (one of whom always had something either drastically wrong or amazingly perfect) was harder than she thought, and not at all like the perfect family she had imagined, her father upset about work and bills (her mother was practically hopeless at such things, and there were always pay cuts, the possibility of being fired, or deciding whether or not to fire someone), and her brother, George, simply upset because everyone else was upset, as, in general, his life as a little boy treated him fairly well, Nicole learned how to be the calm one in the family. She was the one who kept everything she was upset with under control, and tried to relax the rest of her family.

She had to, as, otherwise, there wouldn't be a single moment of peace in her household. She learned how to suggest reading lines with Juliette, bring her mother hot tea and biscuits after a long day, keep everyone out of her father's way so he could rest or work in peace, and play catch with George to relive his nerves. While these things were specific to Nicole's family, she learned to read others well, and learn how to set them at ease.

A shy, quiet girl, Nicole certainly wasn't any sort of threat, and, as she learned to read emotions and what to do for someone, she was able to quickly set people at ease, no matter the circumstances. Her peers noticed that she was easily able to relax them about upcoming tests, quizzes, and assignments, and her fellow orchestra members always felt more relaxed about auditions and the like when she was around, and found they often liked to speak with her or see her before hand, as she always put them at ease. In fact, one of her fellow musicians jokingly referred to her as a "good luck charm," and secretly wondered if it might be true, as she was always able to calm down around Nicole.

People found her easy to talk to, despite the fact that she was rather shy (which, in fact, even helped relax them, as they knew her to be a sweet and unassuming girl). Even people who didn't know her could tell, easily becoming relaxed and calmer in her presence.

Name of Ability or Race/Talent that you Are Applying for: Parselmouth
Describe why this fits your character (not why you the player want it):

Taylor was born into a very old pure-blooded family of witches and warlocks. As most ancient wizarding families, Taylor's family very rich, and had a huge mansion which Taylor liked to explore in her free time.
Taylor's parents had jobs at the Ministry, but never put much effort into it, for the family gold was enough to last them ten lifetimes. However, that didn't mean they spent more time with their daughter. The opposite, actually. Sure, they had meals together, but they were usually uncomfortable affairs, with lots of awkward silence.
Taylor knew why her parents didn't like her. She was the unexpected daughter instead of the son they had always wanted. That was why she was called Taylor hunt. Even though they had been let down, they were not willing to give up the name they had so carefully picked out for their precious son.
They also had a house-elf, which Taylor's mum and dad never treated very well.
Taylor's family had a very biased view toward muggles and muggle- borns. They strongly believed that the non-pure were, in general, scum and that they were 'better' than them.
Taylor hated how her parents acted towards those who weren't of a magical background. Surely, she thought, they were all humans, so why did it matter if they couldn't do magic? She often voiced her opinions to her parents, only to be met with scorn. From when she was little, Taylor had sworn to herself she would never be like them.
So Taylor grew up in a household like this, with cold parents and no friends. One day, she was in the gigantic garden connected to her mansion/ house. She was sitting on a bench, sort of just staring in front of her, bored out of her mind, when suddenly, she heard a voice.
'Why, hello there.'
Taylor froze. Cautiously, she looked around. She seemed to be alone.... But was she?
'Ahem, down here, please.'
Bewildered, Taylor's gaze traveled down, down, and down, falling upon the thing that was speaking to her..... A snake?
Now, Taylor would be lying if she said that she remained totally calm and started having a casual conversation with the snake. What really happened was an 'Aghhhh!' followed by almost falling over backwards, taking the bench with her.
Once she pulled herself back together, Taylor decided to say something to the snake. Even in a dream, it would be rude to leave someone hanging, right?
'Hiii? she said uncertainly.
The snake rolled its eyes (can snakes do that?). 'Are you asking me, or telling me?'
'Teeelling youuu?' Taylor shook her head as if to clear her thoughts. 'Wait a moment... Snakes can talk?
'Of course we can.' The snake sounded dignified. 'So very like you humans, thinking you're the only ones to invent a language. Ha! Mark my words, your arrogance will be the downfall of your race.'
Taylor was sure what to say to that, and just as well, because the snake slithered away.
When she got back to the house, she looked up everything about speaking to snakes. As Taylor looked through page after page of materials on Parselmouths, those who could talk to snakes, her heart sank lower and lower, for one phrase kept popping up...
.... the mark of a dark wizard.

Name of Ability or Race/Talent that you Are Applying for: Healing Sage
Describe why this fits your character (not why you the player want it):
When Rebecca was younger, she used to watch in awe as her aunt would heal her wounds, seemingly with magic. Back then, she had been almost convinced that magic must have been real, because what other answer was there? As soon as her aunt would point a little stick at her cut, bruise, or even one time, her broken leg, and whisper something that Rebecca couldn’t hear, it would fade or fix instantaneously. Then Rebecca had gotten older, and learned that magic was, indeed real. Then, instead of wondering how in the world her aunt was able to do this, she started to beg for her aunt to teach her how she did it. Of course, as Rebecca was just barely six at the time, her aunt didn’t actually teach her any spells. Instead, she taught her a few tricks that didn’t require magic. How to stitch up a cut, bandage a wound, wrap a sprained ankle. All the things that her aunt had learned over the years of being a healer, when magic wouldn’t work well or was too risky to be used. So Rebecca learned, and when she would fall and get cuts and bruises, instead of running to her aunt for help, she started to clean and bandage her cuts herself. The first time she did it, she ran to her aunt right after proclaiming that Rebecca was a healer just like her aunt, and her aunt had only laughed, ruffled her hair, and told her that someday she would be. Then Rebecca had started to learn biology in her science classes. Now, Rebecca certainly wasn’t a genius, and she had never really excelled in any of her classes or had the motivation to learn more than what was required, but for once in her life she went to the library and learned outside of the classroom. Of course, the thick textbooks were too hard for little Rebecca to understand at the time, being secondary school reading material, but the librarian had went over to her with a kind smile and when Rebecca told her that she wanted to learn more about biology and medicine, the librarian had gladly helped her find some books that were easier to understand. So Rebecca learned from her aunt, all the practical skills that her aunt saw fit to teach her, and Rebecca learned from books, biology and first aid and some books that explained how certain medicines and medical procedures worked in a way for children to understand. By the time Rebecca had gotten to Hogwarts, armed with the knowledge t she had acquired over the years, and then sorted into Hufflepuff, where her willingness to help was even more appreciated, she was certain of one fact, that she would help anyone and everyone who was in pain. Yes, Rebecca was certainly a Healing Sage.

Name of Ability or Race/Talent that you Are Applying for: 's Grace
Describe why this fits your character: I think that cat's grace would fit my character because he is not one to stand out. He has gone his whole life with his head down into a book that he almost subconsciously tries not to bring attention to himself. He is a thin dangly person without any kind of social ability and doesn't like people much. So, he has basically been born with an incredible ability to go unnoticed.

Don't take things the wrong way he isn't malnourished he just has a huge metabolism. Anything he eats goes into the energy that he uses to avoid most people. He is a quiet person and doesn't speak much and that just adds another level to his ability to stay hidden.

His home life is very quiet because there isn't really much to talk about. His mother is always baking something or is off to work and his Father is either working or reading some kind of newspaper. (John has no idea how he gets them.) He has naturally grown accustomed to this situation and mimics it as a default.

He isn't very big that much is obvious. So, to avoid unwanted confrontation John has learned how to blend in, how to not look like a target. This has become a very useful skill because being the top of the class is kind of like a big "pick on me" sign that was taped onto his back. He has probably avoided many occasions in which he could have been possibly bullied thanks to his ability to remain hidden.

John isn't someone that would really stand out in a crowd. That mixed with his clothing choices made for a very uninteresting person. He usually wore loose jeans and some kind of hoodie to hide his low body weight. He had gone entire school days without so much as a teacher noticing his presence. It was a pretty amazing skill if he didn't say so himself. Sometimes though it could be a nuisance like the times that his parents didn't realize he was in the room and he had to make his presence known to them. Or the times that he was scolded for being late in class when he was in the room the whole time. But he couldn't complain everything had its ups and downs.

I think that this ability would match John because he is an anti-social people who has grown up avoiding everyone around him for the majority of his life.

Name of Ability or Race/Talent that you Are Applying for: Lovely Creature.
Describe why this fits your character (not why you the player want it):

There is no doubt in the fact that Beatrice is, to say the least, a Beautiful girl. Some would even say magnificent or dare some say perfect? Even that would be the truth. She always has been. She inherited all the good genes from her family (you could argue if there are even any bad ones) and has always been told there will be boys swooning over her and only her. People are mesmerized by her the second they do as much as take a glance at her. Beatrice doesn't necessarily notice but all around her accidents happen because some can't look away from the girl. Even at this young age she is bound to grow up a hypnotizing woman, mesmerizing even the ones who don't like her. Whenever she is in puplic, people run into doors because they are watching Beatrice. They drop their work, hypnotized by her presence. People bump into others, hit their head, pour hot coffee over themselves, stop looking at what they were doing, are distracted and even stop the attempt of kissing a loved one when Beatrice walks by. Her parents praise her for this, knowing she will go far while being pretty and smart. There is a certain grace in her, she's never seen as anything other than beautiful. No one would ever dare to call her ugly. Not to her face, nor behind her back. Or maybe they would, but they'd be lying. Lying to themselves and whoever they are telling Beatrice is anything other than gorgeous. People find it hard to concentrate around her, even her family has trouble concentrating on their work when Beatrice steps into the room. Of course not in a creepy way, Beatrice is only a child after all. She herself doesn't even notice that everyone around her thinks she is this Beautiful. Her heart aches when she looks into the mirror and she tries desperately to correct any imperfections she might see. She tries to eat the right things, she does a daily skin care routine (day and night) and never lets anyone see anything other then her best side. The polite, perfect side. Beatrice always makes sure to look presentable even when doing ballet or any other sport. She appears perfect. Whenever anyone tells her she is pretty it pushes her self-esteem and makes her feel better. It pushes the insecure thoughts out of her head and let's her see that she, maybe, is as beautiful as People see her. Just like everyone always tells her.

Name of Ability or Race/Talent that you Are Applying for: Werewolf

Describe why this fits your character: Wolfach is a town in the Black Forest, Germany. It's a land that for muggles is a well known spa town in the middle of mountains and valleys with both rivers Wolf and Kinzig completing the paradisiacal landscape. For muggles, many of the stories born there are fairy tales and myths. Others are made of acts of heroism and strength. For wizards and most specially for werewolves, it's foundation it's a horror story, filled with blood and chaos. The town shows its pride clearly in its coat of arms, showing a golden wolf's hook rod on a blue background, "The Lords of Wolfach", that in 1260 took control of the entire town exterminating all wolfs from their homeland. Or they thought...because the Meyer's family still lives there and for many generations since then, they carry their "inner wolf" proudly.

It is known that for the magical community werewolves are beasts and many avoid them with fear and disgust. Who can blame them? The majority of them doesn't know what is to be a wolf. And it's inherent from human race to fear the unknown. But in Wolfach things were not always like that. There was a time that to carry this, now acknowledged disease, was a mark of pride into their inner community. While nowadays many tree families no longer exist, Due to what happened in that massacre, some remain living there, and the oldest members still believe in their old ways and traditions.
Greta Meyer, Irina's grandmother is one of the ancient wolfs of the Dark Forest pack. She and her deceased husband Saymon Meyer, raised their children, Ingrid and Johan in this beliefs and through their old traditions. As soon as their magical abilities had shown, it was time for their initiation and introduction to the werewolves’ community. Irina’s mother and uncle had grown up being proud wolfs. They used to run through the enchanted forest, living with their pack as a strong and powerful family. Their community of wolves did not depend from the others communities around or the magical world. They have their own means and resources.

When Ingrid and Johan Meyer went to Durmstrang their vision of the world changed drastically. There, they met new friends and learned how the werewolves were seen at the magical community outside their town on the mountains. And Lycanthrophe was not what they had learned at the Dark Forest, but a disease or a curse. They suffered from discrimination great part of their life’s outside of their pack territory. Things had only changed when Kingsley Shacklebolt become the Ministry of Magic at the year of 1998. So, after Lord Voldemort’s fall they both decided to come to live to London, leaving behind the town were they grow up and their old pack of wolves.
After Rita and Irina’s birth there was a time of turmoil into the Meyer’s family. For one hand, Ingrid and Johan didn’t wanted to cause their daughters to have to deal with all the things they had too, but in the other hand they had been raised into the wolves pack, and being part of it, was a powerful feeling a strong sense of belonging. But they lived in London now, it wouldn’t make sense to let their daughters follow that path willingly. They would never live in the Dark Forest, that was not Irina and Rita’s community. They were not meant to be free wolfs, to run through those mountains, to hunt through that Forest or to bath in those rivers.
But everything had changed when Irina burned her bedroom by accident when trying to fix her father’s watch. Her first manifestation of magic happened when she was seven years old. Her mother, still regrets the day she had sent that owl to Greta Meyer. In the next day she had received a very stern reply from the old wolf. She had two options, to went to the Dark Forest with her child, or the Dark wolves would had come to take her. In the first option she would be able to raise Irina were she wanted, the child just had to maintain contact with her family and pack. The second option was, she would never be able to see her daughter again, because after that day, she would never be welcomed to her childhood community. And so that’s how it happened, Ingrid had chosen the first option. Irina, at the age of seven was being delivered to her grandmother’s care to perform the little girl’s initiation to the werewolves pack of the Dark Forest. Since that day, the scar at her upper left leg will never disappear as the scar in her heart that she can’t totally comprehend. And at all full moon nights, Irina loses her human form and her inner wolf comes alive. She doesn’t have much memories of her life before being a werewolf, since she was so little when it happened. She’s normally a calm person, enjoying her time with her books, and her paints, the last activity is her best way to express herself since talking about her condition is not something she shares with everyone besides she had grown up within her family circle being homeschooled until she got age enough to went to Hogwarts. Although she’s being calm most of the times, she has an impulsive and bold personality. She has a bad temper when challenged and tends to not accept her own failures and defeats quite well. But she’s a loyal and fiercely friend, she cares for her real friends as much as she cares for her own family.

Reducio

Charlie knew about the magical part of the world. She grew up in it. She was a Dhampir.

Very pale skin. brownish gray and sometimes black eyes. Long fangs or large gaps everyone stared at. Staying up late to avoid the bright sun. All traits of a Dhampir.

Charlie’s father, Alex, was a very pale man. His side of the family was a very long line of vampires, some bad, and some good. It was a very harsh family, striving for nothing but perfection. Alex’s parents had hard expectations for him, and wanted nothing less of them. It was stuff like, marry another vampire, have at least two vampire children… and so on. If only Alex’s parents had known he would fall in love with a human and have a child, he would be banished from the family. He hated his family and never came back as soon as he finished school.

Even though running away would give Alex a chance at a new life, it would never let him experience the feeling of sunlight hitting his skin. Or the taste of garlic bread, but he would take this chance to start over, finding a way to be happy, away from his past. Alex hated his vampire features. He used muggle makeup to hide his pale skin. He hated that feature but was stuck with it. Alex always wore green contacts that hid his blood red eyes. He never smiled.

One night, on a late evening at a dinner party with many single witches and wizards, Alex caught sight of a beautiful woman. He immediately fell in love, thinking she was part Veela. He talked to her, asking questions all about her family, life and more. He asked if she was part Veela and she laughed, smiled and said no. He asked her out and she was hesitant, but finally said yes. When he and Ashlyn’s relationship became more serious, he knew he had to tell her but could never find the right time, or words. After many many dates he still struggled, trying to find the perfect time.

One night, on their fifth date, She asked. And he told her the truth. He knew that she came from a long line of pure bloods and he was extremely worried about what she would say. Some pure bloods hated vampires and that’s what he was worried about her saying. He braced himself for a harsh reply. Relief flooded over him. Ashlyn didn’t care. Alex finally had found the love of his life.

They kept dating for months and Alex finally proposed. Ashlyn immediately said yes and they got married. His parents would definitely never approve, so he covered up the fact she came from a pure blood family. They moved farther away from Alex’s family, to avoid his parents finding out. Ashlyn ended up picking a small town in Ireland called Thomastown.

When their daughter was born, just as they had expected, she had dhampir blood running through her veins. They named her Charlotte. And nicknamed her Charlie.
