This one is for Hogwarts
Name: Verlin Mackenzie
Appearance- Verlin has spiky hair with red tips. She styles it differently once a week, and wears yellow wolf eye contacts. She is pretty pale, and has a freckly face. She is overweight but stands at about 5 foot 7 which makes her look more evenly proportioned. She mostly wears all black, and on days when there is no class she wears a trench coat with a red wolf with black ears and paws. She wears a corset top underneath her trench coat, and black combat boots. She wears black pants most of the time. On school days she wears your standard Hogwarts uniform, but has sewn the red and black wolf into all her school robes, but it is in a battle crouch with it's hackles raised standing in front of an emerald snake in honor of her house. Sometimes she will transfigure wolf ears, complete with a tail and walk around like that all day. She wears her school robes open with the sleeves rolled up at all times, and she wears her tie nice and loss. She is often seen smirking, or full out laughing in contrast to her rather dark appperance. If ever a student looked like they were up to something it would probably be her.She has rather playful and predatory eyes, and sometimes makes her tail wag.
Year: second year(She started Hogwarts late)
Heritage: halfblood
House:Slytherin
Wand: Ebony dragonheart string 13 inches unyeilding
Bio:
Verlin's father died as an auror in an accident involving vampires when she was about ten. His favorite colors were black and red hence why she adopted her colors. Her mother was the bake cookies, play nice with the other kids type mom. Her mom was really accepting of the wizarding world, but she was the type of mom that went to your soccer game, but didn't understand anything about it, and would accidentally cheer for the other team. Verlin's mom Emily was excited about every aspect of the wizarding world, and often pawed over Verlin's books (Think Arthur Weasely). Verlin's mother seemed to be one of those helicopter parents, hence why Verlin took on the rebel persona.
Verlin was an odd child when it came to the wizarding world she got her powers later than all the other kids, and could not attend Hogwarts until a year later. She didn't want to let her father down so she did everything she could to not be identified as a squib. She seems to be behind in all other areas of magic accept for transfiguration. She felt an affinity for wolves so she learned how to transfigure ears and tail on to herself.
Personality:
Verlin takes on the rebel persona so her helicopter mom lets her be herself and do her own thing. She is fiercely hardworking and independent. Her biggest fear would be dissapointing her dead father, and she spends all her time overcoming challenges to honor his memory. She is sarcastic, and is always laughing and getting herself into trouble. She likes manipulating people even if it's to make them better themselves. Actually that is often what she uses her skills of manipulation for.
Even though she puts up a harsh sarcastic exterior she genuinely cares for people, but has no sympathy or patience for people who don't try to better themselves. Her motto is "I'll make it to the moon even if I have to crawl," and she tries to encourage others around her to be the same way. She is a good a listener, and will offer all the chances in the world if she thinks you deserve it. Even though she seems strong and stuff she keeps a journal, and is emotionally troubled by a lot of things. The prospect of ever being a parent freak her out but she acts really motherly toward her black and white squeaky cat named Ester.
