Character Information
Full Name: Lavender Ann Brown
Birthdate: August 20th
Age: 17
House//Year: Gryffie|Seventh
Blood: Pureblood
Position on the War: Order
-Appearance
Height: 5'2"
Weight: About 125. It rises and lowers from that on occasion.
Physical Health: Her physical health is fairly well. She has no sicknesses besides the occasional cold or flu. She doesn't like being sick so she tries her best to keep things clean to the point where it is unnecessary.
Appearance: Lavender was born with a light shade of brown hair, which her family thought she had inherited the color from her father. As she had grown older, her hair and darkened quite a bit, now closer to her mother's shade.
Her eyes are a bright blue. They are the first to stick out over everything on her face. Those were inherited not from either of her parents, but from her grandmother. The eye color usually stuck in the family but her mother had inherited her father's eyes so the tradition had stopped for her generation.
She's rather short and isn't too happy about it. Everything seems to be out of reach for her and she is usually found standing on a chair to reach something at a height which one of her family members could easily reach without a problem. She's envious of that.
Lavender has a birthmark on her lower back and that is one of her only markings. She has no scars from childhood adventures because Lavender never was the type of child to play it rough like most other children did.
She has a few piercings which are located on her ears and her navel piercing. Her ears were pierced at a young age of nine and her navel piercing was just done a few years ago when she turned 15.
The clothes that she usually wears are anything she finds 'cute' or 'adorable'. The only thing she looks for to be comfortable would be her shoes. The make-up she wears is light but to the point where she is wearing enough of it. She doesn't like the look of 'caked on' make up.
-Personality
Strengths: Lavender has only a few strengths in a few subjects. She is surprisingly good at Divination and just alright in Transfiguration. She's a pureblood but hasn't got the knack for all of the subjects just yet. Her vocals are decent but isn't going pro anytime soon.
Weaknesses: She's weak at anything athletic. She's not one for sports or running and would rather sit in the stands and support the Gryffindor players who play. There is the occasional guy that makes her weak but that seems to be hard to find lately; all the good ones seem to be taken.
Point of Views: Lavender has quite a few opinions on different things. Cereal is a waste of time because it becomes soggy easily. Don't run in heels unless you want to have the possibility of tripping, breaking your neck, and dying of a tragic and silly death. Sporks are the ultimate piece of silverware and people should start selling them in actual silverware, rather then plastic. Diamond's are not a girl's best friend but chocolate is. A girl should make sure a boy is worth her time before diving into anything. [plus many more]
Personality: Lavender usually likes to be happy; she would rather not be upset because she finds it lame and not worth her time. She doesn't know anyone who would choose to be upset rather then happy.
To people who don't know her, Lavender seems to be just that silly and giggly girl. Sure, she is rather silly and giggly at times, but Lavender is a little more then that when she is with her family and friends. She's a caring person and doesn't like to see others upset just as much as she doesn't want to be upset herself.
She likes meeting new people and making new acquaintances. The more friends that a person has, the more fun they have. She finds with little friends, life is dull and boring. She doesn't like to be bored because only boring people get bored.
She doesn't like to hate people but merely dislike them. Hate is too strong of an emotion and tries to stay away from that.
She was, and still pretty much is, quite the gossip queen. She likes being in on the scoop but doesn't usually spread it as much as she used too. She has at least some common sense to know that some rumors, when they're especially silly, aren't true. The ones that seem to be true, Lavender usually runs off to tell Parvati but tries to leave that as far as it goes. She's gotten better then she used to be.
She's rather affectionate and caring to those who she finds helpless. She likes to help the little first years but mostly just those that are in Gryffindor. She likes to take some of the girls 'under her wing' and show them the ropes to Hogwarts when they first enter the school.
-History
Nationality: British
Hometown: Leeds, England.
Family: Lavender's parents are Charles and Delia Brown. Her mother is a Healer at St. Mungo's while her father is a Ministry Worker for the Department of Magical Games and Sports. Lavender is the baby of the family and is the only child. Her parents only wanted one child and she was it. They're purebloods and the majority of them have landed in Gryffindor. Only a few haven't and those who haven't have been in Ravenclaw.
History: Lavender grew up being a spoiled child and was all for it. Her cousins used to tease her about the time her father said no to getting her the toy she wanted and she threatened to cut her fingers off and feed them to the owl if she didn't get it. She honestly doesn't remember saying this at all but she either just laughs along and changes the subject or shuts them up somehow.
When she got older, Lavender was not so spoiled anymore and has gotten used to it. She figures they spoiled her rotten at a young age since she was going to be their only child, but then they realized it wouldn't be a good idea. It was either stop, let her be unhappy for awhile, or have a brat for a child as she arrived at a certain age.
She grew more independent from her parents as the years progressed and probably at a younger age then they expected. At eight, she already was trying to do things her own way. She wanted to learn how to do something by herself and was set on the fact she didn't need her parents help. Of course, this also included make-up and styles of clothing her mother wore. She often found herself in trouble for rummaging through her mother's make up and closet sometimes.
Lavender was the kind of girl who didn't believe that boys had 'cooties' when she grew up. If she was found being teased by the older boys, she usually just threatened to kiss them until they stopped. Most of those boys were under the impression she really actually as going to kiss them.
She was always looking for new girls to play with when she was a child. She had a few that she knew from birth when their mother's or father's were friends. She didn't keep too many of those friends after Hogwarts began.
When she was accepted to Hogwarts, her parents were thrilled. They knew she was going to Hogwarts eventually but they couldn't help but do everything to show how excited they were for her. She quickly made friends with Parvati Patil and they are still currently best friends.
-Extras
Likes: Lavender likes a lot of random things. She always has a thing for frogs but not the real thing. She likes the cute frogs on clothing and stuffed animals but if you put a real frog in her hand, it just won't work out well. She likes music and a lot of different muggle things. She's a major fan of the muggle television and finds herself glued to the screen when a show is on she likes. She's pretty fascinated by sporks. She likes anything fashion involved and loves her shoes as if they were physically her children. Lavender loves sweet things, such as any type of candy, sugar, or chocolate. She likes cappuccinos but that is the only type of coffee she can drink.
Dislikes: Any sort of sport. Sports and her aren't really close buds. She dislikes cereal, soggy cereal mostly, and eggs. She can eat scrambled eggs but would rather not. Any coffee styles besides cappuccinos are gross and leave a bad taste in her mouth. She doesn't like much sour foods or candy when she could rather be eating the sweet stuff.
Wand: 11", rosewood, a single unicorn tail hair
Pet: Just the family owl named Athena. She had a bunny named Binky but Trelawney had predicted Binky's death and the prediction had come true. Lavender felt jinxed after that happened and decided not to get anymore pets.
Broom: None. She's not one to fly.
Roleplay Sample:
Lavender wanted to punch herself in the face for many reasons this morning.
First off, she was late. That is always a horrible start to a morning and Lavender hated to be late. Her alarm clock was either broken or she had forgot to set it last night. She couldn't remember if she had set it or not but that didn't matter anymore. She was late and probably was going to be screwed with bad luck for the rest of the day. Being late meant no breakfast, no morning cappuccino, being cranky without her cappuccino, and missing the first part of whatever lesson was part of that day.
Well, at least she got some extra sleep. That was the only good thing about being late.
Secondly, she found out the reason why she was late. After reaching Potions, which made her morning sucky with that alone, Lavender was told the reason why her alarm clock failed to go off. Apparently a dorm mate of hers had been messing around while she was gone yesterday afternoon, resulting in her crashing into her nightstand. Her alarm clock had gone flying mid-air and had landed with a thud. Result: Lavender having a broken alarm clock. The stupid idiot forgot she was a witch for a mere moment and didn't use a simple 'reparo' spell to fix it.
That or she's just against her (or perhaps life is against her? ahaha) and didn't fix it to make her suffer.
Thirdly, Lavender sucks a potions. That was probably obvious with her total lack of knowledge in the subject. Her potion was ruined almost immediately and she already failed for the lesson. Super.
As you can tell, when Lavender's mornings suck, she usually has a 'life sucks and then you die' sort of attitude.
