Playby: katerina graham
Hair: black, shoulder length and wavy
Eyes: dark brown, almond shaped
Height/Weight: five feet eight inches, one hundred fourty pounds
Distinguishing Marks: n/a
Build: muscular, thin
Style: growing up on her own, she had really been into comfort more than fashion, which is probably what hindered her when it came to making friends with many of the girls her own age. she was never up to date on the latest trends by any means, but was far more at home in a pair of jeans and a well fit tank top that she could put on to go outside and play quidditch in. she didn't wear a lot of skirts...or girlish colours, so she tended to take her fashion sense from quidditch. not that there's anything really wrong with that mind you, especially since it makes flying much easier. besides, wearing jeans hid the burn marks from her stupid little mistake when she was six, as she's never been fully comfortable with the way it made her body look afterward. blues, greens and deep reds are the colours that seem to look the best on her body, though she could have been imagining things as well, wearing grey and black to school everyday.

Likes: sunsets, the colour blue, fred weasley, apples, strawberries, swimming, singing, playing the piano, her students, romance, books, time alone, music, sunflowers, roses, old movies, gentlemen, encouraging her team, quidditch.
Dislikes: umbridge, voldemort, deatheaters, the ministry of magic, liars, cheaters, thugs, bullies, the colour pink, ceramic animals, cooked vegetables, being teased, losing, the idea of dying, danger, the idea that her friends are in danger, people who call harry potter a liar.
Strengths: quidditch, flying, taking charge, being a leader, staying out of trouble, strategic planning, sneaking around when needed, observing.
Weaknesses: fred weasley, sleeping, worries constantly about what the future holds, accepting death, being herself, thinking of what could have been.
Best Memory: believe it or not, and she would deny it if ever you said this to anyone else, but angelina's best and fondest memory is of the day of the yule ball. although fred had merely asked her to show his brother ron how easy it was to ask a girl to go, she remembers the look on his face when she came down the staircase the very first time in that dress, not a piece of quidditch equipment in sight.
Mirror of Erised: angelina's greatest desire is to one day become a well known quidditch player known for her skill and swiftness on the quidditch pitch, at least that's what she tells people. in truth, she wants nothing more then to find someone who loves her for who she is and perhaps raise a family one day.
Patronus: peregrine falcon, her greatest memory is of the day that fred asked her to the yule ball back in their sixth year.
Boggart: is afraid of losing fred, is afraid of her own death, is truly afraid for her life and others like her now that voldemort is back.
Dementor: the day that she fell from her broomstick and there was nothing and no one who was able to catch her or slow her fall. angelina broke her arm and was forced to sit out the remainder of the season.
Veritaserum: she's madly in love with fred weasley
Personality:
DISTRACTED --
for someone who was one rather aggressive and brutal on the quidditch field, angelina thought that she was tough enough to handle anything that life threw her way. but since the return of voldemort, she's having an incredibly hard time focusing on things that mean a lot to her. she is incredibly distracted with the constant question of "what if" and "when" because her halfblood status means that she is not the only person who is in danger now. her parents are the ones she worries the most about, including fred and the entire weasley family, since she knows that they oppose people like voldemort on a daily basis and stand as strong supporters of harry potter, as she does.
BRAVE --
you can't be a gryffindor without having bravery as one of your many character traits, and angelina was no different from anyone else who took shelter under the gold and scarlet colours of the lion. she'd do anything for her friends, especially those who remained close to her after graduation, which specifically means katie, alicia, oliver, fred and george. with this new threat of voldemort looming over their heads, she has to watch her step at all times and keep an ear out for what is happening around her in case she hears something important. the last thing she wants to do is hear something that she doesn't take seriously and learn later on that it was vital to the operation of the order of the phoenix.
CAUTIOUS --
in this day and age, you don't really know who you can trust anymore. angelina has become incredibly skeptical about the people she talks to on a daily basis because she constantly worries about the people that try to get information from her. she doesn't want to be the one that they got anything from, no matter what tactics they use on her. so, while she is rather loud and boisterous on the quidditch pitch, people tend to take notice of the fact that she doesn't talk to too many people that she isn't familiar with, and though they wonder why, she has her reasons. in truth, the only person she communicates with on a daily basis is her mother, because she knows that her mother would see things differently then she would because of being a muggle.

Hometown: dublin, ireland
Current Residence: london, england
History: born on october twenty-first in the year ninteen seventy-seven, angelina was the only child born to her parents, keisha and amar johnson. she grew up as any normal half-blood witch would, with everything that she could ever want and the love and attention of her parents besides. for many years she would spend her time playing outdoors with the local children that she had befriended, never dreaming that one day everything might change for her. and then, one day when she was nine and playing in the park, one of the boys began to push her around and call her names. as angelina's anger grew, a garbage can that was sitting nearby exploded and showered the children in rotten garbage. afraid of what had happened, angelina fled back to the house and hid away from everyone, refusing to tell her parents what had happened. slowly, she began to live her life normally again, until one day, when she was just about to turn eleven, her father sat her down to talk.
it was then that angelina learned the truth of what had happened all those times before, when something strange and unexpected had happened because of her getting angry for scared. that september, with her new things in hand, ang boarded the hogwarts express bound for hogwarts school of witchcraft and wizardry. it was an entirely new adventure, and frankly one that she did not want. but once there, the first people to speak to her at all were fred and george weasley, who joined her at the gryffindor table in the great hall. the following year, when she tried out for the quidditch team, she bonded rather closely with katie bell and alicia spinnet, both girls who were trying out as well. to angelina's delight, fred and george were listed as the team beaters, and she, alongside katie and alicia, became the chasers. the next year, they were joined by the famous harry potter...
in her sixth year, the only eventful thing to truly happen to angelina was that fred weasley asked her to be his date to the yule ball. although her original thought was to deny him, something in angelina admired the adorable way in which he was trying to show his little brother how simple it was to ask a girl out, and she accepted. that was the night that angelina came to realize that there was more to fred weasley then simply the pranking and the ginger hair. the two quietly began dating, and remained so until the following year, when things got a little more out of hand.
that was when umbridge made her entrance from the ministry of magic, parading herself around as if she were the overlord of the world. needless to say this did not go over well with many of the students at hogwarts, though it wasn't until hermione gathered them all together that angelina became a part of a secret organization called dumbledore's army. together, she and about twenty others would gather in the room of requirement on the seventh floor and practise magic spells taught to them by harry potter. it was here that she learned to master the use of a patronus, which took the shape of a peregrine falcon thanks to her love for flying, the first place angelina had really been that had made her feel like she belonged. and although they were discovered, she continued to practise her skills afterward.
with her school years behind her, there was only one more thing for angelina to do. she was slated to join the puddlemere united quidditch team alongside her old captain oliver wood. her experience as a chaser had begun to shape a promising career for the girl, until more trouble came their way.

and who are we flying for? gryffindor, this is battle this is war!
Name: adelle
Time Zone: eastern
RP Experience: sixish years
How Did You Find Us?: lana....it's all her fault
Role Play Sample:
she didn't think she had ever been so greatful for a break in her life.
angelina was the type of person who preferred working her way to the championship game, stressing about flying patterns and strategy that could be used in order to win the upcoming match at whatever cost, but now that she was not the one in charge again, everything seemed to hurt that little bit more. it was almost as if her entire body was bruised on the inside without a single mark on her skin to confirm the feeling. the sensation was one that she should have been familiar with by this point, after all she had been out of school and training for how many months now? and yet her body still seemed to be going through the adjustment period and hardening of the new career she had chosen. this was certainly not normal for her, not at all, but angelina simply had to shrug it off. there was no point in complaining about it after all. the feeling would pass eventually.
and then she'd look bloody amazing.
still, as she wandered through diagon alley on that busy afternoon, angelina's dark eyes couldn't help but take notice of the things around her, most specifically the children who were eagerly getting ready to go shopping and collect their things for hogwarts. the sight brought a smile to her lips as she recalled her own experiences of heading into the various shops to collect her school supplies, knowing that she always had a list with her of what she would require for the new year. there was always at least one new textbook she was required to pick up for her classes, and her growth spirts made it almost impossible for her to make it through an entire year with the robes she would buy at the end of august with her father. those were things that she remembered with a tenderness that could never be replaced in her mind, knowing that her own excitement was much like what she saw in many of the bright, youthful faces of those preparing for their very first year.
it was almost hard to imagine that seven years had passed her by, angelina thought quietly as she continued on down the cobblestone street. everything was just so familiar, like an echo from the past that she simply couldn't shake. ollivander's was where she had picked up her wand all those years ago. madame malkin's was the place that she had been fit for her robes for her very first day at a school where she would be surrounded by other people who were as different as she was...but there was one place in diagon alley that had not been there right away, something that had developed only in the past year by a pair of friends who had been rather well known for their scheming and pranking ways. the idea still brought a smile to her lips, taunting them with a laugh as she approached their store front and saw the animatronic red-head lifting his hat up and down as he seemed to laugh as well.
oh, to go inside and see if they were operating the store that day or not? the question taunted her brain a little as she slowed her steps and glanced at the merchandise prominently displayed in the front window, wondering how much of it they had worked on only recently. it seemed that their business was doing incredibly well, as angelina had heard that they had purchased a space in hogsmeade to sell their products as well. a little competition for zonkos, she had thought with a grin. but the hogwarts students were sure to love the pranking material the way the professors were sure to hate it, but there was nothing they could do. it was no longer banned after all of the trouble it had caused umbridge the year before, and rightfully so, she thought to herself. still....perhaps just a moment or two...
before she could change her mind, angelina turned on her heel and headed for the door, turning the knob and pushing it aside just in time to avoid nearly being run over by a couple of younger kids who dashed out of the store with a bagful of new purchases. all she could do was shake her dark head before she headed inside, closing the door carefully behind her as she marvelled at the number of things whizzing around her head. it was pure and utter chaos in here, the perfect atmosphere for people like fred and george weasley. her feet carried her further, into the heart of the madness itself where she was confronted by a couple of butterflies that hovered just around her head. and before she had time to guess at what they did, they exploded in an array of sparkles and lights, almost like they were mini fireworks...and angelina couldn't help but giggle softly in appreciation. "fred? george? are you here?" she called, her eyes focused on the glitter that showered her body in such a brilliant manner. "guys? it's ang..."
