Basic Information:
Nicknames: Lori, Lor, Shoe!Girl, LoriLouu, LoriPie, Buttercup, Unicorn!Girl, Foot!Face, Glitter, Lo, Lolly, Harold, Tall!Kid, Lou, LoLo, Miss Glitter, Varnish!Girl, Fishy, Prefect Glitter, Lorly, Loster,
- Name Origination: Lorelai, being abandoned was named after many things. The only name left on the note with the baby bundle was Dakota, and the lady that found Lorelai was also names Lorelai. Hence the first name. Usually when a child is adopted they take the families last name, but the Burrows, however loving, didn't want to claim Lori as their own, just to make themselves out to be the nice people that their neighbours were bullied into believing they were. So the Bristol, came from the place of founding.
DOB: 13th December, 2056
-Lorelai's official date of birth is unknown, she was left outside Northway Orphanage in Bristol on 13th December 2056, so this was taken down as the date of birth.
POB: Bristol [we assume]
Place of current residence: Adam’s apartment.
Parentage: Jake and Alicia Burrows. [adoptive] Dakota Bridges and Cody Barnard [biological]

Patronus: Chipmunk
Wand: 9inch pink oak, with a flamingo feather core
Post Colour: #FF0066

Appearance:
Hair Colour: Brown
Eye Colour: Brown
Skin Colour: White, but tanned from frequent holidays abroad.
Height: 5 ft 5
Birthmarks: Lori has one little brown freckle spot on her lower back, just by the side of her spine.
Play-By: Vanessa Hudgens.

Personality:
Lorelai, sincerely has a nice side to her, but growing up with Jake and Alicia as an only child really has given her a stuck up exterior. She cares completely what people think of her, but she wont let them see that it hurts her. Really, she is one of those girls that will bottle it all up and let loose their anger into a diary. Or just hitting her pillow, or screaming into it, any one of those and she's game for letting loose. Jake and Alicia Burrows, brought her up to think the best of herself and the worst of others, but Lorelai has taught herself to think the best of herself and slightly about half less of others. Number one person in her life, is herself really.
She doesn't care much for her mother and father, and sometimes can be caught referring to them as Jake and Alicia, to Lori they are just people who keep a roof over her head to make themselves to be selfless loving people who couldn't leave a small infant in an orphanage when they have the rooms and the money to bring it up. One less child seeming common.
She has one single love for shopping and shoes. Much like Alicia, Lorelai has a whole wardrobe full of heels, and another full of flats. Shoes are her best friend, as are her dresses.
Lorelai's one single weakness is her friends. She never really had any growing up, because Jake and Alicia always found a fault with them, but now with her at a Boarding School, they really can't have any say about it. So, you mess with her friends, you've crossed the LoreLINE.
With her i'm better than you attitude and mememe importancy scale, Lori primarily doesn't get along with many girls, let alone girls who are like her. She's never had a best friend before, but really wants someone to share the Hogwarts experience with.

Slowly, she’s started to learn that being stuck up isn’t how she’s going to make friends, and Lorelai has ended up becoming more emotional [resulting in two breakdowns during her sixth year], her emotions are all over the place as a result of being a teenage girl, but extra stress and her best friend troubles have lead to more haywire emotions. She still has an iron exterior, this term it just so happens to be rusting, and ready to break at any given point.

Of course, she’s still a cow. But a glittery cow.

Motto:
It’s not the person, nor the personality, it’s the shoes. You fall in love with the shoes. Only then can you learn to love a person.

History:
Pre-Hogwarts:
Picture this, it's December 13th and small flakes of snow are starting to fall. A fifteen year old girl places a small bundle at the gates of Northway Orphanage in Bristol, and places a small note down and pins it to the cloth surrounding the small crying child. It is around 10pm and night had fallen hours before. Truth is, underage pregnancy is common in Bristol, and this girl is no different to any other, apart from she didn't just leave the baby to die. She left her darling daughter outside the best orphanage in the country, just hoping she was found.
Luckily, for the small bundle, Sister Bridgewaters is just about to place the milk bottles out for the night, and catches a glimpse of a white clump of cloth. Of coruse she immediately thought it was a childs blanket, or a toy coated in snow. But upon coming closer to it, unbeknowingly she came across Hogwarts newest Royal Pain In The Backside. For three more weeks the child was passed from family to family, trying to find suitable adopters, and then the Burrows came by. They were looking for an older child, one where they woudln't have to deal with nappies and the late nights, but Lorelai was different. There she lay, as quiet as anything, somehow already stemming the amount of nappy changes. She was the baby Alicia had always wanted. But Jake, had convinced her that Lorelai would be the downfall of her singing career and she gave up on the dream of being a mother. But they did take the child in, but just hired a team of nannies, playmates and expert nappy changers.
By the time Lorelai was eleven, her Hogwarts letter was there. Jake and Alicia passed it off as a joke, and continued to send her to the best private school in their county. It was only when Lori found a letter when she was about fifteen that she confronted her adoptive parents about her real identity, and it all came out. That she was adopted, that this school claimed she was a witch, and that most importantly, she wasn't going to attend. Until she pulled the 'you stop me, i run away' card on them, and they promised to have her enrolled the next term. And then, they sent her off into the unknown to them, but how life should have always been for her. The Wizarding World.

Relationships:
Disclaimer:: Lori has a LOT of best friends
SPOILER!!: we have a lot of friends, hehe.
Gold Laksh : Best friend. First ever best friend. Lori and Gold met in Diagon Alley during the summer before they both started fifth year at Hogwarts. The pair get along so well, because of their fashion sense, and love for heels. Hehe. Moved to France; end of sixth year
Brody Summers : Other best friend. Formerly seen as competition within school. Left the school; end of sixth year
Annie Robles : Other, other best friend. The pair met in the Ice Cream Parlour in Diagon Alley, the term before Lori’s fifth and Annie’s fourth years, respectively. Annie vowed to teach Lori Spanish, and Lori to teach Annie to walk in heels. Their vows brought them close.
Oliver Glitter!Poodle Greenwood : Frenemie. The word was INVENTED for these two. They have their moments where they can be nice to one another, and in those moments the pair are fond of each others company. But in the flicker of a dust particle, they’re back to insulting one another. Their sense of humour is, in ways, the same; in others completely different. They met at a Quidditch Match in their fifth year, with Lori hugging Oliver, after Hufflepuff made it to the championships. Insults were thrown after, eyebrows raised, heels brandished. A heel ended up on the Quidditch pitch, and the other used to beat Oliver Greenwood. The pair have slowly became closer, in a way, since Lori became friends with Oliver’s girlfriend, Cameron. After a very very heartfelt heart to heart over the summer previous to their seventh year, Lorelai actually started to think of Oliver as a friend, and not just a friends boyfriend.
Torin Kane : He’s her best friends boyfriend, what else could you possibly expect. The pair are very close, considering Torin has dated both Gold and Brody. He’s always there for her, even when she and Brody were arguing. Graduated; end of Lori’s sixth year. Took Brody with him
Sarah Griffin : Best friend. One of them. Fellow Guard!Badger. PrefectHead Girl. Confidant. Shoulder to cry on. New shoe shopping buddy. Lori lent a shoe to Sarah, unaware that the girl would be sharing a dorm with her, and later on that term scrabbling through rocks and thorned roses to help in the battle.
Adam Stemp : The boyfriend. ‘Tis all you need to know. *shifteh*
Miranda BelCanto ; Miranda and Lori first met in fifth year, when Lori tried out for the Hufflepuff Quidditch Team, which Miranda was captain of. The girls were brought closer, when Lori was awoken one night to find Miranda all battered and horned in her bed. Their sixth year only brought them closer, with Miranda requesting Lori’s help in the second session of the Championship match, which they later won. Left school; end of sixth year
Cameron Caddock ; Partner in crime. Best friend. Camelot and Lolly became friends through joint hatred of one; Raven Athlon. The pair stole Raven’s bagpipes, and then returned them in a showdown in Hogsmeade. Friends ever since. <3
Trixie Malfoy ; The two shared a heart to heart at the fountain whilst Trixie was in fifth year and Lorelai sixth, about Trixie’s boy troubles. Later on, in the same term, the girls partnered in their Potions final.


OOC. Hey there! I'm Shannon [or Shan as I tend to go by, haha], one of your prefects for this term! I spend most of my time on SS, or now in college, I'm studying childcare and in time I either want to own my ow nursery, ooooooor become Mary Poppins ;] XD. Like Mary Poppins anyways, or Nanny McPhee *ponders* I'm 16 and a haaaalf right now, and I live in England. As I said, i'm always really on SS unless something crops up, so pleeeeease drop me a VM and ask to RP. I love RPing with people, especially new people for me.
