10 Words to describe your character: Violent, Rash, Passionate, Destructive, Intense, Intrepid, Loyal, Provincial, Fierce, Loving
EXTENDED APPLICATION -- PLEASE DO AT LEAST A PARAGRAPH ON EACH OF THESE, UNLESS THEY ARE STATED TO BE OPTIONAL
Personality: Hannah can be rather contradictory. She's extremely loyal to those that she loves, yet if she feels that they have wronged her, she won't hesitate to confront them about it. She loves to argue and fight with people. Sometimes, she'll just randomly pick a fight with someone. To most people that she meets for the first time, she tries to be personable. However, if she's in a bad mood then she probably won't be very nice. She can be extremely vindictive at times, and will go to almost any length to humiliate someone if she feels that they deserve it. Despite all of these negative tendencies, she can be very sweet. One wouldn't realize this unless they were close to her. Around her friends, she can be seen cracking jokes, smiling and laughing. However, sweetness and kindness seem like weaknesses to her, so she rarely allows herself to let her guard down and be nice. Though it's rare, Hannah has been known to be quiet and subdued. This would be when she's despondent (like anyone else would be) or if she's studying. Yes, she does study. And surprisingly enough, she's rather good at it (unless it's with Derek... >.>) Of course, that's only in small regulated doses. Hannah craves crazy wacky adventures. Studying just doesn't provide that.
One of the major flaws in her personality is her choice of role models. She can be very suggestible and thrives on attention from whoever she picks as a role model. Her adoration of her older brother has definitely influenced how she sees people. Characters who are good at manipulation will have an easy time impressing Hannah. As loathe as she is to admit it, she loves praise and attention from people. Some of her stranger behaviour is often a ploy to get attention and/or praise from people.
Strengths: Both magical and personality:
Magical:
She is excellent at Charms and has improved her hexing ability since she's been enemies with certain people such as Olivia Rosenberg. Hannah isn't excellent at dueling, though if she really worked at it, I'm sure she could be. With proper motivation, Hannah could be excellent at DADA as well. Another class that she really enjoys is Divination. She doesn't put that much effort into it, but it does hold her interest, and she likes tarot cards and tea leaves. Her flying skill is good enough, a lot better these days since last year she played Quidditch for a bit. She's renewed her love of flying, so she goes out a lot more.
Personality:
Personality wise, she's extremely loyal and would do anything for someone that she loves. When she disagrees with something, she'll speak up and voice her opinion, rarely caring who hears her. Hannah can't be pushed around, and once she decided on something, she sticks to it. Surprisingly enough, she gets along with younger kids. Pimento, Gillichu, Ethan, are just a handful of younger students that she gets along with. Hannah is protective of her friends and for the most part won't stand for any of them being hurt or mocked. She generally doesn't care what most people think of her, and has a decent amount of self-confidence.
Weaknesses: Both magical and personality:
Magical:
Hannah is absolutely horrid at Potions. This would be why she managed to do so terribly on her OWL exam and is no longer taking the class. Her attention span doesn't really help her grades in classes like History of Magic. The subjects bore her and she lacks the discipline to ignore distractions and focus. When magic is more detail oriented and thinking oriented, she has more trouble. Her strengths are more associated with magic that she has naturally.
Personality:
Hannah tends to take things too personally and reacts too rashly. Her temper often gets her into trouble and has been known to be taken out on her friends. Hannah also gets rather obsessive when she needs to find out information, or needs to complete a certain task. She is much harsher than needed and she tends to find dark and mysterious people exciting and cool. She has really poor coping issues and usually resorts to violence, whether self-inflicted or on others. Also, her perception of how others see her is very skewed and her emotional intelligence such as predicting others' reactions or emotions is usually way off.
Fears: Animals, specifically Kneazles and Cats. There was an incident in her childhood which has remained with her throughout her life so far. Hannah doesn't trust animals, and as a result, they rarely trust her. Last year she survived a werewolf attack, which frightened her to the point of nightmares. She doesn't particularly like ghosts and will go out of her way to avoid them. Plus there's the usual fear of abandonment, fear of losing herself.
History: Both of Hannah's parents aren't close to their families. They both left at a young age and didn't look back.
DeSailly Family:
Hannah's Grandparents: Didier Alain DeSailly and Odessa Bibiane DeSailly (Leroy)
Didier is a well-respected member of the high Pureblood society. He has been a suspected DE for many years, but has never been found guilty in (wizarding) court. He's got friends in high places, and doesn't get his hands too dirty. Odessa is the perfect High-Society wife. She knows the right people, attends the right parties and basically keeps and up to date list of who's who in the Pureblood Wizarding World.
Hannah's Aunts, Uncles and Mother:
Pascale Odessa DeSailly, and Eric Sanguin Allemand.
Pascale is a particularly nasty woman. Being the eldest, her father always doted on her. Her mother made sure that she was brought up as a well-mannered young lady. Pascale, however, was easily bored and would often sneak out and wreak havoc. She was very cruel to her non-Pureblood classmates. Also, she enjoyed torturing Muggles and the like, and has been on trial quite a few times. However, her father has always bailed her out. Pascale's husband was not so lucky. He has been in Azkaban for about 10 years. They have 2 children, Celine Noella Barthez(Allemand) and Stephane Armand Allemand.
Abigail Magalis DeSailly, and Marshall Andrew Salix
Abigail has always rebelled against her parents. She didn't want to have any part of the family business and as soon as she got to enter Hogwarts, she was barely home at all. She didn't go home for the holidays, and was often travelling over the summers. By the time she'd come of age, she had written her parents, accepted that she was out of the will and would be left penniless. She was pleased that her family agreed to leave her alone and let her go. Abby married Marshall Salix, which of course pleased the family since he was a secret pureblood. Yada yada yada, they had 2 kids. Gabriel and Hannah.
Thierry Gerard DeSailly and Soleil Remy DeSailly(Corniers)
Thierry is the only son of Didier and Odessa. Therefore, he learned at a young age that it was up to him to continue on the family name. His marriage was arranged of course, and he basically did whatever his father told him. He's not particularly enthused about being involved with Death Eaters, but he does what he has to do. He figures that he was born into it. Also, since Abigail left at an early age, he didn't really have anyone to stick up for him. He married Soleil and they had 2 children.
Hannah's Cousins:
Celine Noelle Allemand
Daughter of Pascale and Eric. She is the eldest grandchild of Didier and Odessa, therefore she was spoiled rotten. She was told that she was better than anyone who wasn't a Pureblood and also that she was better than most of the other Purebloods. She grew up getting whatever she wanted, no matter what she had to do. She killed a classmate when she was 16 years old. It was covered up, but she bragged about it to her friends. As soon as she finished school, she married Gaston Aubergine Barthez. They were married for a few years until they both got into some trouble and Celine gave her husband up to the Ministry. He's now in Azkaban and she's running around having fun.
Stephane Armand Allemand
Yes, he has a stupid name. And, he is also kind of dim-witted. Though he's only a year younger than his sister, she was always treated better. He's the only son of Pascale and Eric. He's pretty much just the muscle for the DE's. Surprisingly though, he hasn't been caught yet. Perhaps he isn't as slow as he makes himself out to be. Or maybe he is. Really, it's a toss up.
Bari Didier DeSailly
The Golden Boy of the family. He's probably the favorite of the grandchildren, especially since he was named after his grandfather. He is very good looking, charming, intelligent. He's a real catch, ladies. At first it was thought that his marriage would be arranged as well, but Bari has assured the family that he will chose the perfect bride himself. The choice he made is Mariee Isolde, who is from a respected pureblood family. Both families are very happy with this union.
Isabelle Bibiane DeSailly
Precious Isabelle. She has her mother's sunny disposition (get it? Soleil?) and also has been molded into the perfect society girl. Was one of the prettiest at her Debutante Ball. Her ambition is to marry the correct guy and start a family. She's a daddy's girl and just wants to make her father proud.
Salix Family:
Celestyn Henri and Gautier Salix are both from respected Pureblood families. However, those two are probably the craziest people in the world. They had four children: Nicolas, Aceline, Marshall and Alexis. Marshall was a special case, as both parents thought he was a squib. In a rare form of mercy, they simply left him in a random place one day. He was found by a Muggle family, the Cortiers and raised by them. Marshall was not a squib however and did receive a letter from Hogwarts when he was ten. Once the Salix family realized this, they kept an eye on him in case they were going to have to claim him again.
Marshall's older sister, Aceline, married Avent Moreau and they had 3 children. Fabien, Claude and Aurelia. Fabien was killed in a freak accident in November of 2005. Aurelia was the DADA professor at Hogwarts for a few months during the 2005/2006 school year. She is also responsible for a few murders, but has never been brought to (wizarding) trial.
Hannah's immediate family:
Marshall Salix(father): Pureblood, thought to be a squib so given to Muggle Family when he was a baby. He grew up thinking he was Muggleborn. He's not a great wizard though and dropped out of Hogwarts after his third year. He likes the Muggle life, and that's what he went back to. He met Hannah's mother, Abby, during his time at Hogwarts. They met again just after Abby's last year at Hogwarts (1983). Fell in love, married, yippee. At this time, neither knew that Marshall was pureblood. However, the elders of the families DeSailly and Salix were well aware of the joining of these two families. After a couple years of marriage, the Salix family figured that the Muggle family's job was done and proceeded to murder Marshall's parents and siblings.
After the murders, Marshall started to look into his family history. He discovered that he was in fact a pureblood. While this was going on, Hannah's brother Gabriel was conceived. He was born in 1985. Hannah's parents were now paranoid and broke off all contact with wizards. Abby stayed home with Gabe, and then with Hannah. When Hannah was a few years old, Abby went back to work at St. Mungos. Hannah and Gabe grew up in a fairly protective environment. They didn't really play with other children, save a few. One of her friends from her childhood is Anora Bertrade. Abigail was acquaintances with Anora's mum so they were together rather often. Hannah had major separation anxiety when Gabe went off to Hogwarts. But, 2 years later, she joined him.
Physical Description: At the least, provide base details of build, height, eye/hair colour, and complexion. Fairly Athletic, 5'7", Black hair and Dark brown eyes. Darker complexion.
Significant Relationships:
Family: Optional:
Gabriel Salix: Hannah's older brother. He was a significant influence on her during her childhood. Basically Gabe taught her everything she knows and was always looking out for her. She told him all of her secrets growing up and he gave her excellent advice. Gabe was an easy person for Hannah to idolize as he was practically good at everything, played Quidditch and was a star pupil. Whenever Hannah fought with her parents or flew off of the handle, Gabe was there to calm her down. He's basically one of Hannah's biggest weaknesses. In her eyes, he can do no wrong, although he has done a LOT of wrong.
Friends: Optional:
Anora Bertrade:
One of the greatest girls on this earth, as far as Hannah is concerned. Anora and her have been friends since first year. They look out for each other but mostly just joke around and have a lot of fun. Anora and Hannah are fond of dressing up in ridiculous costumes and walking around school like that. Nora is another friend that Hannah is very protective of. When they were younger, Hannah and a friend made a boy cry because he wasn't good enough to like Nora. They seem to be going through a bit of the same thing lately, so they will confide in each other about quite a bit.
Derek Bly:
Hannah's boyfriend. A huge influence on her, because if he wasn't around, she would probably run rampant in the school. Hannah still doesn't really know why he's with her, but she's not stupid enough to throw that away. Well, not anymore. Since Gabe has been the staple in her life so far, it has been an adjustment adding Derek to that list. Their relationship is difficult, frustrating and volatile, but I honestly couldn't see Hannah in any other kind of relationship. Anyways, yeah, although Gabe is the main influence on Hannah's life choices, Derek has been gaining more ground in that department. He'll definitely be a factor for when she chooses a side.
Other: Optional:
Olivia Rosenturdberg: Unbeknown to Hannah, Olivia is actually her first cousin. It's probably a good thing that neither of them know that, as they have never gotten along. Olivia is enemies with Anora, so there is one main reason to loathe her. Basically Hannah doesn't like Olivia's elitist attitude, not because she's pureblood, just because she thinks that she's better.
Anya DeLouise: This fourth year was once Hannah's nemesis, but isn't so much anymore. They are by no means friends, but they do have one thing in common. That would be Derek. Hannah knows that Anya is or at least was jealous of her relationship with Derek. Hannah is equally as jealous of Anya's closeness to Derek, even though she knows that it's more of a little sister thing. Near the end of last year, they managed to have a few civil conversations. Hannah's still very unsure of Anya, and will probably be cautious around her. especially in case of more sex talks
Special Considerations: Such as broom ownership, being an animagus, famous in some form, or a metamorphmagus. All are subject to mod approval. Hannah does own a Nimbus, and she played with it last year on the team. It's quite backstoried as well, as I think I've even threaded her and Jul flying with it when they were young. Hannah adored the Nimbus that her brother got from the DeSaillys when they were younger. He pwned the Ravenclaw Quidz team with it. And then when he left, she got it. Since she's now on a waiting list, I guess I'll say that in the hurry of being allowed back to school, she left it at home. Then Derek convinced her to play Quidditch again, so she's just waiting for Abigail to send it along. And knowing Abigail and her dislike of anything that's not studying, Hannah will probably have to wait awhile.
COMMUNITY SPECIFIC QUESTIONS -- ONLY ANSWER THE SECTION APPLICABLE TO YOUR CHARACTER
Hogwarts:
Year: 6
House: Ravenclaw
Why are they in that house? Hannah possesses a lot of the drive and obsession that most Ravenclaws have. She can get fixated on a problem so intensely that she'll forget about everything else, even eating and sleeping. Her wit is also very Ravenclaw, as she loves to argue and best people with clever remarks.

Since Gabe has been the staple in her life so far, it has been an adjustment adding Derek to that list. Their relationship is difficult, frustrating and volatile, but I honestly couldn't see Hannah in any other kind of relationship. Anyways, yeah, although Gabe is the main influence on Hannah's life choices, Derek has been gaining more ground in that department. He'll definitely be a factor for when she chooses a side.
Other: Optional:
Olivia Rosenturdberg: Unbeknown to Hannah, Olivia is actually her first cousin. It's probably a good thing that neither of them know that, as they have never gotten along. Olivia is enemies with Anora, so there is one main reason to loathe her. Basically Hannah doesn't like Olivia's elitist attitude, not because she's pureblood, just because she thinks that she's better.
Anya DeLouise: This fourth year was once Hannah's nemesis, but isn't so much anymore. They are by no means friends, but they do have one thing in common. That would be Derek. Hannah knows that Anya is or at least was jealous of her relationship with Derek. Hannah is equally as jealous of Anya's closeness to Derek, even though she knows that it's more of a little sister thing. Near the end of last year, they managed to have a few civil conversations. Hannah's still very unsure of Anya, and will probably be cautious around her. especially in case of more sex talks
Special Considerations: Such as broom ownership, being an animagus, famous in some form, or a metamorphmagus. All are subject to mod approval. Hannah does own a Nimbus, and she played with it last year on the team. It's quite backstoried as well, as I think I've even threaded her and Jul flying with it when they were young. Hannah adored the Nimbus that her brother got from the DeSaillys when they were younger. He pwned the Ravenclaw Quidz team with it. And then when he left, she got it. Since she's now on a waiting list, I guess I'll say that in the hurry of being allowed back to school, she left it at home. Then Derek convinced her to play Quidditch again, so she's just waiting for Abigail to send it along. And knowing Abigail and her dislike of anything that's not studying, Hannah will probably have to wait awhile.
COMMUNITY SPECIFIC QUESTIONS -- ONLY ANSWER THE SECTION APPLICABLE TO YOUR CHARACTER
Hogwarts:
Year: 6
House: Ravenclaw
Why are they in that house? Hannah possesses a lot of the drive and obsession that most Ravenclaws have. She can get fixated on a problem so intensely that she'll forget about everything else, even eating and sleeping. Her wit is also very Ravenclaw, as she loves to argue and best people with clever remarks.
