ABOUT THE CHARACTER Name: Elijah Winston James Levitticus Age: 17 / January 13th Gender: Male Year: 6th Year Celebrity: Hyde
Canon or Original? Orginal
Facial Properties: Rewrite: When Elijah looks in the mirror, he sees a very feminine face staring back at him. Everything from his soft amber brown eyes to his smooth and light Hispanic complexion pronounce this statement. He runs a hand through his shoulder-length midnight black hair and his hand brushes over his pointed long elf-like, figuratively of course, ears. Then the wipes his forehead and takes notice of his awkward lopsided eyebrows, remembering how he once tried to get rid of them with duct tape. Then he scratches his long, thin nose, and nudges his glasses further up his face. His small rectangular glasses are the one thing that allows him to see clearly. His small pink tongue then darts out quickly to lick his small, pale, pink bubblegum lips, and his hand wipes the smoothly trimmed five-o-clock shadow, before he pulls his hair up and heads out for the day.
Physique: Isabel stood at the doorway to her son’s room, studying his looks, in awe of how much he had grown in the last few years. She studied his long thin feet and his chubby ankles. She noticed how muscular his calves and lower legs were and how his knobby knees had grown thicker and were more muscular now. She examined how his hips were still quit thick and well, it’s not quite right for a mother to say this, but still quite feminine. Her pale blue eyes fell upon his bulky hands with their long thin fingers and manicured nails.
As her view shifted upwards she noticed the way his soft cotton boxer-shorts clung to his bulky waist. The fine details of his somewhat muscular chest were the next items to catch her attention. It was odd to her, the way his big muscular thick arm ran up to his wide shoulders and contrasted with his thin neck and fingers. The way his left hand, the more dominant one, always gripped his wand so tightly, even in his sleep, amused her as well.
She smiled as she walked away from her son, who, just a few years ago was a boy, and, now, was a man.
Personality: Elijah is not what he appears to be. He puts on a tough act to most people. He’s cold, silent, and temperamental towards his peers. He hates the way most teenagers act, with their immaturity and disrespect. He’s a firm believer of respecting your elders and obeying orders. He was raised in a military home and learned respect and responsibility at a young age. He would take care of his younger sister while his mother was away on base and his father was buying groceries.
He is old-fashioned, in the sense of he believes in chivalry, but, not so, in the fact that he knows women are powerful. His mom was a military woman and it installed in his brain that women are as powerful as they make themselves. He was always a bit of an outcast as a kid because of his long hair and his somewhat feminine behavior, so he toughened up through his grade school. He became very defensive and protective of weaker beings, because he knew they couldn’t defend themselves.
Of course with this new tough-man act came a few drawbacks as well. He gained a very explosive temper which has gotten him into a brawl on more than one occasion. He usually turns out for the worst in these hellacious fights, but he gives the other man a good run for his money. He, on most occasions, stays up until he can’t get back up. It’s partly him being determined, but mainly just a pride thing for him. He doesn’t like to walk away from a challenge without having given his best.
He gives up easy in arguments when it’s with someone he cares deeply about. He’ll usually just succumb and agree with the other person on it just to end the discussion. He’s also very confident, although he has the tendency to get jealous, he is fairly cocky about his skills, abilities, and looks. He just likes to be very secure about his relationships. He usually dates very attractive quiet people, so he feels like he has to safe guard them from temptation which can be overbearing at times.
Likes: Potions - He is an awesome potion maker, it’s something he does really well in, because he can follow directions really precisely. Studying - He really likes to hit the books and study over the weekends and in his spare time. He likes how quiet it is when he studies. Quid ditch - He also likes to play quid ditch. Although he’s not very skilled at scoring, he loved to block the goals when his sister play. He has never played for school though because he doesn’t like the players on his team. Dislikes: Transfigurations - He can’t quite get it, it’s something that’s hard for him and he doesn’t particularly like the way the professor teaches it. Chocolate - He’s hates chocolate, but it’s probably simply because he’s very allergic to it. It makes him break out in hives and vomit. - It’s not pretty.
Girls That Flirt A Lot With Him- He hates to have girls come up to him and just hang all over him, it really bothers him. He just doesn’t like most of them like that and it disgusts him that they would stoop that low to get with him.
Liars - He does not lie, it’s something absolutely against his moral code and he hates it when people lie to him. He usually makes enemies with the people who betray his trust by lying.
History: Elijah was born in the winter on an army base. Actually his mother had been married for a few years and had been waiting to have a baby until she had the time to stay home for a few months to take care of him or her. Anyways, he was born on an army base and raised by a military mom and a stay-at-home dad. Things went well because his dad was nice and loving and always took good care of him.
Elijah attended a military academy for young boys when he was about 5 or 6 until he was of age to attend Hogwarts. It was a boring school, but he lived with it. There he learned his basic English, Spanish, Arithmetic, and Science. He fell in love with History there as well and met the boy that would soon be his best friend, Aaron Snyder.
Aaron was a quiet boy who loved to study, but he was also very adventurous. He would go on imaginary quests with Elijah, leading him into all sorts of unexplored terrain in his mind. There were close friends for many years, until Elijah moved of course. Then they lost track of each other and the friendship drifted apart until it was basically void of any meaning.
When he was about 8 years old his parents had another baby, a little girl. The little girl had a twin who died before birth. This sole fact helped to drive his parents apart. They began to bicker a lot and often they would avoid each other for weeks at a time. Finally, when Elijah was about 10 they got a divorce, and it tore Elijah’s family apart. He went to live with his dad for a few months, but his dad had a new girlfriend who was really young and she didn’t like Elijah, so he was shipped back to his mom’s house.
This caused some resentment between him and his dad because his dad decided to keep Hailey at his house, but dismissed Elijah like he was nothing. He held the grudge wrongfully against his younger sister as well. He wasn’t very bummed out for long because soon after he turned 11 he began to show signs of being a wizard and his mother let him in on her family secret. He was SO excited when he got his Hogwarts’ letter. It was all he could talk about for months on end.
When he finally made it to Hogwarts, after reading all about it of course, he was amazed. No book could properly describe the amazing ceiling and the awesome talking paintings. Nothing could compare to the way he felt connected to Hogwarts, like it was his true home. He even enjoyed the classes, although he had seldom heard of them before arriving at the school. He loved to brew potions , discuss mythical magical creatures, and learn to fight dark magic in his classes. It was much more interesting then his elementary school.
He has been pretty successful at Hogwarts, so far, only getting into a few brawls with students, or only a few times that he got caught, and passing MOST of his classes with semi-excellent grades. That Transfigurations class and that charms class however, are different stories. He is also one of the only students who could ever stay awake in History of Magic, and therefore has ahead start on that note.
He hasn’t dated very many people in his lifetime, a few girls and maybe a boy or two, but no one has ever really interested him very deeply. Sure, he has liked them, but he hasn’t loved them and that’s what he’s looking for. He will most likely just keep looking until he finds that perfect person for him.
He took his O.W.L’s in his last year of school and, since he wants to become a potions master, he decided to take: Potions - O, Arithmancy - E, Defense Against The Dark Arts - E, and Care of Magical Creatures - O. He was very pleased with his scores, especially since those were the only classes he planned to take any further.
ABOUT YOU Name: Ellie Years of Experience: 7 years of roleplay, 5 of which were in various forums Sample Post: The stench of sweat, greasy food, and overflowing garbage cans hit Stevie's nose rather strongly as he walked through the crowded carnival. His black boots crunched against dropped bits of food, a fry here, a piece of cotton candy there, maybe even a bit of gum somewhere, but he ignored it as he watched the laughing pedestrians. As the children played on the carousel and the young couples, still fresh in the game of love, rode the "love boat" together, he couldn't help but feel remorse. Remorse that he would never see any children of his own riding on such contraptions and that the sweet innocence of the "love boat" ride was lost to him, the idea of love cast away like a dead flower.
As he stepped through the crowd someone bumped him, rather roughly, but PURELY on accident, and he stumbled into a puddle, luckily catching himself before he fell. He stared down at his reflection in the puddle for a moment, running his finger along the small scars under his chin and above his left eye. He had gotten pretty messed up in his fight with Alavair, but she was worth it. She would always be worth it, even if she didn't deserve a weakling like himself. And she didn't... he knew she didn't.
But, still, constantly her face filled his head, her eyes lurking in his dreams, the sound of her voice always ringing in his ears. He couldn't get rid of her, just like now, in front of him, that woman all dressed in black and red reminded him of their first meeting. That was insane, though, for she would never be caught dead in a place like this, surely. He couldn't think of a logical reason why he was there, to be honest. Yet, still that woman moved through the crowd, head bowed, and he couldn't help thinking that her movements were so much similar to Kiley's.
Then he caught a glimpse of her eyes, those misty green eyes, and that hair, that awesome dark hair, and he knew it was her. His footsteps were quick in pursuit of her through the crowd, trying to dodge people as he moved to "casually" run into her. When he finally reached her, he had to move slower to catch his breath, before he could speak, "S'a fine night out, isn't, my lady in red?" His voice was smooth, sweet, and cold all at the same time, like it had been before. He had begun to bottle his emotions once more, channeling them into cool, rational thoughts.
His icy blue eyes moved up to look into hers, and asked what his mouth dared not to. Was she back with Alavair? Had Steven really lost the battle? Was it over forever? These were just a few of the millions of questions that swam through Steven's eyes, as he tried to hide them, as he tried to block them all away, batting at them in his mind. They were questions that showed his emotions, and she hated emotions, so they must be hidden. Perhaps then she would like him better, understand to what lengths he would go just to please her.
Perhaps...
Other: Ummm it was: Classically, then you said: Sectumsempra and then you said Mimbulus Mimbletonia Darn... that was hard to follow.
