Personality:
From her past, it may seem like Addie is a weepy, sad, mess. Though this is sometimes true, almost always when she is alone, she puts on a front for the world to see. Talking about her feelings and family is not something she partakes in frequently, although she will share the occasional, good memory from a happier time when she was younger. Otherwise, she is usually fairly quiet, especially when it comes to discussing herself. She’s not necessarily shy, but Addie is a very insecure girl. She has no issues speaking up in class or participating in some small talk with classmates and friends. She is not too quick to judge others, but is a firm believer in listening to your gut when it speaks up. Because of this, Addie is cautious of those that rub her the wrong way. A lone wolf, she normally enjoys being alone but won’t shoo away a friend who wishes to share her company or engage her in conversation. It is because of this that she is known as a friendly and kind person.

She seems to always have an open shoulder, for Addie hates seeing others in a sad mood, but will hardly ever go to anyone to talk about her own problems. You could say she has a certain pride that she’s afraid of tarnishing, a fault that causes her to bottle up her problems until they come bursting out when something truly awful happens to her. She dislikes being touched, especially near her arms. However, she will sometimes find that she desires to be held for a long period of time (of course this is a silly request, and she would never make it, opting instead to snuggle up with her cat…although he’s not always up for it.)

There is a certain charm to Addie in the fact that, although she is generally very sweet, she has some bite to her. Addie is stubborn, sarcastic, and on her best (and sometimes worst) days, she will not hesitate to snap back at anyone who tries to trample over her. After all, it’s her family that she fears the most-everyone else can’t hurt in the same way. Though no one can really tell, Addie hardly feels much. One of the reasons why she’s always drawing is because her passion for the arts is one of the only ways she distract herself from how badly her emotional state of being is.

Biography:
There was a time when Addie knew no tragedy. Born in a rainy town with a sunny disposition, she spent the first seven years of her life in Washington with her parents, Jamie and Cecilia. As a child she was happy and almost always smiling. Her mother was a witch who had fallen in love with a muggle, and so she grew up in a magic-friendly household while also obtaining the customs of the muggle world as well. Cecilia worked as a journalist for Magic Daily, often writing about magical creatures in the wild, always trying to inform the public on all the wonderful beings that existed in the magical world. Jamie was a pilot who was often traveling but made sure he could be home with his family as much as possible. Her parents were just as happy as their beloved daughter and worked as a team to raise her on good, strong principles. They not only encouraged her to think for herself, but to believe in her abilities and to be who she wanted to be, not what everyone else wanted her to be. From an early age, she expressed a great interest in art so her father, an artist himself, would sit with Addie for hours just drawing and painting together. He taught her the techniques he had learned over the years while allowing her to develop her own methods and style. For a long time, the Tune family lived very happily.

When Addie was seven, her mother decided to head north to Canada to do some research for an article she was working on about forest trolls. Just like every other time Cecilia had left for a job, Addie and her father were certain she would be back with stories of her findings. But things were about to take a turn for the worst. They received news the news three days after she had left: Cecilia had made it to her destination, but she had not been prepared for how aggressive forest trolls were when they sensed an invader. She was killed immediately by blunt force trauma to the head. Jamie was devastated and Addie was traumatized, and after his wife died, Jamie’s mood changed drastically. He cut off ties with many of his closest friends, stopped coming home for days on end, and began to neglect Addie. It got so bad to the point that Cecilia’s younger, muggle sister, Bea, had to step in and take care of Addie while Jamie was gone at work. Eventually, Jamie let Bea take Addie into her home for good. She now lived in Portland, Orgeon with Bea’s family. 

The only thing Addie liked about her new life was her Aunt Bea and her youngest child, Esther. Esther was two years younger than Addie and immediately latched onto her as if she were another big sister. Though spending time with these two, plus her Uncle Teddy, made her feel welcome, her two older cousins, Benjamin and Lydia, did not take well to the new addition to their home. Instead of constantly picking on their little sister they found a new target in Addie. They teased and insulted her frequently while also pushing her to partake in “games” that ended up with her hurt or embarrassed. You would think that once she turned nine and her powers manifested, they would have been scared of their cousin but this was not the case. As a matter of fact, their bullying became harsher-kids that are jealous of other kids can be cruel. Benjamin and Lydia put the idea in Addie’s head that if she were to tattle to their mother, they would lie and say that she was the one causing trouble. And so even though her Aunt Bea showered her with love, her heart stopped working the way it was supposed to, and Addie slowly let depression take over her body and her mind. Even worse, her father’s reaction to her newfound abilities was not positive. Jamie tried not to let it show, but he had always blamed the magical world for his beloved wife’s death. And to see his daughter become just like her didn’t sit well with him. She found some escape as she and her cousins grew older. As they matured, they became less interested in child’s play and more into hanging out with their teenage friends. Once Addie began attending the Salem Witches’ Institute, her mood changed for the better, but only slightly. Having to go home for breaks and holidays and having to deal with her father’s increasingly prevalent absence from her life, and the cousins that still disliked her brought all her feelings of loneliness and self-loathing back. They just wouldn’t go away, no matter how positive she tried to be. She began to cut herself when she was thirteen, never going deep enough to kill but just enough to scar. Addie constantly throws herself into her art in order to banish away the negative feelings that hold her back from flourishing, and you can often catch her sitting by herself, sketching or painting something beautiful.

<Snipped quote by Ghost Butt>

Are all monsters absolutely evil? The reason I ask is because I had an idea for a character that screws up a hunt and gets turned into a vampire. At first she'll hate the fact that she's a monster, but would develop sympathy for monsters over time. Of course, she'd still hunt and kill evil monsters, but do you think there's room for monster sympathizers in this world?@Konica

@Konica Well, when I post the OOC I'll have information on what creatures in this world are like. No, not ALL vampires are completely bad but the majority are. Basically it's like a curse that turns you into somewhat of an animal, even though you can still think and speak for yourself. Very rarely are there vampires that can still be civil. Once I post the OOC, there will be more information on this matter so you can PM your idea for this character and we can discuss it further!

Also....I am working on the OOC, so it should be up within a day guys!!
