Name: Jesslynn Von Ness
Age: Seventeen
Gender: Female
Year: Seventh
Face Claim: Jessie Ewing

Canon or Original? Original

Facial Properties: Over all, Jesslynn has a rather round face, her facial features sittin comfortably in the right places. Her eyes are rather small compared to the rest of the rest of the preportioning of her face. The shape of them is rather drooped, but not too much that she looks sad enough, but just enough to give them a bit more emotion. The colour of them are a deep blue, making it easier for her to look warmer than her mood actually is. However, the electric yellow athat edges around her iris makes her vicious and prove that she is rather angry and has a temper. Her nose is a cute shape, a bit long but has a very nice roundness to it, not too much that it's a bit too bulb-like, but just enough to make it 'button nose cute'. Her lips are a bit bigger and dispreportioned to her face. They are rather heart-shaped and people say that they look like 'betty boop lips'. Her cheek bones are rather high up, making her smile very large when she laughs or giggles. It also makes her 'signature smirk' so signature. The young lady's ears are rather darwin pointed and have been pierced seven times on each ear. Stretchers on each lob, then two more peircings; up on the upper ear is a bar and then two other peircings. This is the same on each ear. Her skin is fair as freckles scatter across her cheeks and nose.


Physique: Standing at around five foot nine, Jesslynn's body is rather long but not so slender. Her neck is very long and elegant, making a smooth transition into her smooth, fair, sloping shoulders. The seventeen year old's arms are long and muscular, but to a woman's muscular, not over muscular to make her look like a man. Her breasts are just the right size for her height and body shape, which is curvy. They are somewhat large, having a D cup and fitting around with a 36. Yes, she is proud of her bust, but that isn't so wrong now, is it? Her torso is hourglass shaped, smoothly forming her curvy hips. Her stomach, unfortunatly, has a bit of a belly, which has a belly button peircing erupting from it. She carries herself rather well, considering she had been horseback riding since she was five and taking piano since she was seven. On her back are a pair of angel wings, symbolising her aunt who died of breast cancer when she was ten. Jesslynn's legs are long, having and thirty-six inch inseem, making it hard for her to find pants that actually fit her. However, on the back of her shin is a huge scar, reminding her of the car accident she was in when she was twelve. Her walk is rather different, she usually walks on her tip toes, just out of habit, but she doesn't go 'heel toe' she just sort of stomps in a weird way with her size nine feet.

Wand Type: 16" willow
Wand Expertise: unicorn tail
Patronus: nope
Boggart: that she is afraid that things will go back to the way they were and she will lose all of her friends

Personality: SHY & SWEET; Look at this young lady first glance, you would never suspect that she was as insecure as you think she was. And you would never suspect that she loved being in front of an audiance and dreamed to perform in front of millions of people. In fact, she looks quite the opposite. If you first meet her, she is all smiles and acts rather timid, her voice soft. She'll shake your hand and act very polite, because she is, believe it or not. She isn't flirty at all, it's as if she was totally and completely innocent, like a christian school girl who actually isn't a slut. Jesslynn is also very shy if she doesn't know you, she will keep talking to a minimal, unless you bring up music, of course. However, that was total give-in.

ROMANTIC & SEXY; Jesslynn never brings this side out into public, seeing as she is rather insecure about it. This young lady is, in fact, a hopeless romantic. She loves hearing about cheesy love stories, partially because her's is one; in a weird, sick, twisted way. If you think about it, it was. In all honesty, she hates all of those fake plastic bimbos who flaunt their junk out in the open as if it’s completely appropriate. She would rather just keep it to herself and save it for that special someone when she got home. So, Jesslynn isn't provocative at all.

ANGRY & BITCHY; Get in this spit-fire's nerves and you are in for a world of hurt. She will make your life a living hell, making sure you know that she is pissed off at you. If you were in highschool and you pissed her off, you had rumors spread about you and then got the shit beaten out of you. Jesslynn never really gets mad and when she does she usually just yells and screams. But if you did something to her friends or one of the people she loves, she will hunt you down, yell and scream at you, throw you to the ground and beat you up. She isn't ashamed to make a point across, even if it does involve a bit of violence. I guess you could say she got it from how she was beaten as a child.

OUT-GOING & LAID BACK; If you are close to Jesslynn, you know that she is a party animal when she wants to be. She loves to meet new people and talk in deep conversations. She isn't ashamed to make a scene, but only if it's a good one, like if she gets up on a table and starts dancing or starts singing. She loves to have fun and isn't afraid to show it. However, she doesn't like to drink when she is at parties, partially because she knows she'll do something stupid and most likely get caught. She is also rather laid-back, unless she is up to her ears in work, bills and school assignments. But, she really just loves to spend time with her family and have some down time, not always moving around and cleaning he house. She couldn't care less if it were messy or not, as long as the whole family did their part in it.

History:
IN THE BEGINNING; As the high pitched screams of Arleene Von Ness echoed throughout the car, Robert held his wife's hand. They were expecting their first child, Arleene's first, Robert's second, and it was due any moment. Robert drove the car quickly as his wife sat in the front and kept screaming and edging him to go faster. The snow started to fall harder as they reached the highway, Robert went at a safe pace, trying not to get into an accident as well as get to the hospital as quickly as possible. However, their luck wasn't quite the best. As Robert drove safely, a drunk driver figured it would be fun to speed on a snowy night. T-boning the young families car, it swerved out of control and into a ditch. Fortunately, the family wasn't badly injured and plenty of people had called the hospital. Soon, Arleene was rushed off to the hospital, Robert in the ambulance beside her, holding her hand and telling her everything was okay. Finally, they reached the hospital and Arleene gave birth to Jesslynn Gracey Von Ness. However, she wasn't crying, she wasn't breathing. The doctors rushed over to her and attempted to wake her up. Luckily, after almost a minute of no breath, she started to breathe and a loud whail could be heard from the small infant. Jesslynn weighed a healthy 8 pounds 3 ounces and was 49 centemeters long.

TAKING OFF THE TRAINING WHEELS; In her toddler years, Jesslynn didn't really have anything traumatizing in her life. Oh yes, there it is. When Jesslynn was almost two, her mother gave birth to her younger brother, Hayden Von Ness. He seemed like a normal kid, playing and climbing. However, when he was eighteen months, the family discovered that he was diagnosed with Autism, a pervasive developmental disorder of children, characterized by impaired communication, excessive rigidity, and emotional detachment. Jesslynn was too young to notice, but he brother was very different. Her parents worried about Hayden, so they spent more time paying attention to him, rather than her. Jesslynn then felt isolated and neglected as a child, becoming an outcast at the play place and getting very angry, very easily. That's when tragedy struck, while Jesslynn and Hayden were playing in her room, Hayden started climbing again and Jesslynn was playing with her barbies. That's when she heard a crash and then a large thud. She looked over the window and saw Hayden had fallen out of her window. Even though Hayden wasn't one of her favourite people, she was still scared that he was going to die. Thus, Jesslynn ran down the hall, screaming at the top of her lungs, 'HAYDEN'S DEAD!' Her parents ran to her and she showed them where he was. Unfortunately, her parents thought that she had done that to Hayden, so they disowned her, not giving her much love and neglecting her even more.

LEARNING YOUR ABC'S; Having such a terrible home life, Jesslynn was pretty much hated by everyone she met. She was teased and taunted, people called her fat and ugly. All of the other kids would pick on her and she would end up sitting in the corner of the classroom, drawing or reading something. However, when she found out about choir, she was overjoyed. Jesslynn had always been into singing, no one just never noticed. She signed up and was soon one of the stars of the choir. However, this didn't exactly help her popularity, people called her a nerd for liking to sing and being good at it too. Then, her teachers started to notice how she was outcast by the other students and suggested her parents that she should see a psychologist. Of course, she was put on anti-depressants. Her life didn't exactly turn around, it just made the taunting worse. Jesslynn always felt over-weight and ugly because she was told it, so she stayed away from new people who entered Hogwarts. However, that was when she met Joline, she was a pretty girl that was accepted by people. However, she was different, she was nice and started to include Jesslynn in things. But, due to this, Joline also started to become an outcast. The two of them stayed by one another al throughout elementary school.

HIGHSCHOOL NEVER ENDS; As highschool started, Jesslynn and Joline stayed very good friend, the best, actually. They hung out and Jesslynn even started to make a couple more friends. However, that was when her and Joline started to become even more depressed. They would go over to one another houses and catch them high on anti-depressants or just about to cut themselves. Every time, they helped each other through it. However, Joline's mother decided that it would be better for her to start a-new and move. So, the two were separated and Jesslynn felt even more alone than ever. She became an outcast once again and was still being called ugly and overweight because she didn't wear the 'hip' clothes. She stayed that way, getting high on anti-depressants and letting the razor cut her soft skin. However, she got sent over the edge when the phone rang and Jesslynn answered. She had gotten a call from Joline's mother; things didn't change where she moved and she hung herself. Jesslynn was devastated, not being able to speak. Jesslynn stayed quiet for a week, until she was invited to go to Joline's funeral, out in Salmon Arm. Jesslynn stayed quiet the whole way there. However, she had prepared a speak for Joline for the funeral, her mom wanted her to read it out. As the funeral went on, it was time for Jesslynn's speech. As she stood up at the podeum, she started to talk, telling everyone how wonderful Joline was and how cruel people could be. People were touched, she could tell by the way people's tears fell.
After the funeral, Jesslynn decided to live life for both her and Joline. So, she turned to music, discovering the guitar and all of the classic rock that touched her soul. She started writing her own music and played in front of audiances on clubs that were located on Hogsmead. Finally, after being teased and taunted enough, she decided to change her appearance, getting a better hair cut, losing weight and getting more hip like clothes. She started wearing band tees and wearing better fitting clothes; she peirced her nose and ears multiple times as well as getting tattoos to express her pain. She was accepted as a person, finally. Although, her life still isn’t perfect.

Sample Post:

→ It was starting to get hard for Jaclyn to remember her life before her small (but very loving) family. Then again, all of her years in highschool were just a blur to her - filled with parties, sex and drugs. She was throwing away her life and was almost positive that she was going to find herself on the street someday, begging some random tourist for money just so she could get her fix for the day. However, to all of Jaclyn’s friends (or something along those lines) and family, she seemed to be doing quite well; no one suspected anything. Keeping up her wall of security and privacy, Jaclyn would get higher than high before hitting a low that was so low that people wouldn’t see her for days at a time. When they would ask where she was, she would tell them that she was visiting her father for a couple of days. What a load of bullshit that was.


→ Jaclyn never met her father, he had left her mother while she was still pregnant and never even tried to get in contact with her. So, seeing as she didn’t want her daughter to go without a father figure, she soon married a respectable rich man (or so people thought). He took care of the small family and gave them food, clothes on their backs and roof over their heads but there was one thing that he couldn’t give them, love. In fact, if anything, he brought immense hate into the house hold; getting drunk every night before going off on Jaclyn’s mother and pulling his fists out. Usually, after a couple of minutes of beating her mother, he would turn to Jaclyn, calling her a “spoiled little thingy” and a “cheap slut”. It wasn’t until one night that Jaclyn realized just how much of a monster her step father really was and, when she did find out just much a sick and twisted bastard the man was, it was much too late. To this day, as she watched her daughter play on the swings, she thanked God for giving her daughter a father as loving and caring as Teddy. She only wished she had someone who would protect her at such a young age.

→ There were two ways that Jaclyn had made it through her highschool years; drugs and music. The drugs would make her sociable and easy going, as if she had no cares or problems. They would numb her and make her feel nothing but some sort of false happiness that every assumed was just the way she was. However, if they ever listened to the music she wrote, they would realize that Jaclyn was far from the happy-go-lucky girl that they thought she was. Deep inside of her heart, Jaclyn was broken, a broken and scared little girl that had no idea who she was in the world or what she meant to it.

→ Once senior year hit, it was almost like a light at the end of the tunnel. He walked into her life unexpectedly, causing her whole life to turn around for good, or so far anyway. Teddy Winborne had found her and had basically saved her from destroying herself. Now, before Teddy, Jaclyn had basically dating nothing but women and thus, when she met Teddy, she had shocked herself when she found herself longing to see him. It was unlike her to fall of men, even though she had before, it just never really happened. The main reason for this was because Jaclyn was absolutely terrified of men; they always seemed to be threatening her in some way. Some people may find this hard to believe simply because of the aura that Teddy gave off - threatening and pretty much always looking like he was about punch someone’s face in. People looked at him through his appearance, while Jaclyn looked at him through his name. Sure he scared her when he got angry, but she knew he would never lay a hand on her, which was why she went by his name, rather than his appearance - he was big Teddy bear.

→ It was because of Teddy that Jaclyn now had her everything - her daughter, Blake. She was a miracle to Jaclyn, being told she was unable to have children when she was younger, and yet she had managed to give birth. However, even though Jaclyn had given birth to the little girl, Teddy was the one that she clung to. Blake was complete daddy’s girl, which made quite a humorous image if you looked at it from the outside. Teddy was this huge, tattoo-covered greaser whose mere appearance screamed ‘stay the fuck away from me’ and his little girl was this princess, always wearing little dresses with bows in her hair. To see them walking down the street together brought on some double takes, which Jaclyn always loved to see.

→ Her mind quickly snapped back to reality when she heard a happy squeal come from Blake’s direction. Searching for the face that made such a sound, she finally spotted it on top of a slide. Almost going into a bit of a panic attack, she almost got up to go see if that squeal was actually happy, she realized that Teddy was there, trying to get his daughter attention. She then relaxed and looked down at the dog, smiling and petting his head. Her attention then turned up as she watched her boyfriend and her daughter walk towards them, Blake’s screaming giggles echoing in the air. Her smile broadened as Teddy took a seat beside her, tickling her little girl and exclaiming that she had a problem with ‘not being able to stop laughing’. Jaclyn looked down at her daughter and laughed along before she heard her daughter’s final squeal ”Daddy! Stop! I want to go play!” Jaclyn looked up at Teddy and grinned, ”Yeah, Daddy. Let her go. She did finish her breakfast, after all.”

[Professor Albus Dumbledore]

Hey! We're extremely sorry for taking so long to get to this, but we'll just ask that you fix a few things we can sort you, okay?

First, we'll ask that you read through the words again as you seem to be missing the word that should be in the 'Other' section.

Secondly, there are a lot of references to high school in your application and while I understand that Hogwarts could be looked at as a high school of sorts, it just doesn't seem very geared towards that so any clearing up you could do on that front so it makes more sense for a boarding school of Witchcraft & Wizardry would be greeeatly appreciated (:

Thanks so much!
