POB: Santa Cruz, California, USA. (Right by the beach)

History: Leigh was born and raised in Santa Cruz, California. Her mother and father met after her dad graduated from Hogwarts and moved to America (he’s from England). The first time Leigh’s father told her mother that he was a wizard, she fainted...but it’s surely a good thing he told her, because both of Leigh’s older sisters (who are twins) are witches. Saved their mother from a nasty shock right there.
Leigh is the first one of her family to be in Ravenclaw, the others were in Hufflepuff. And although she hardly feels any pressure from her family, she doesn’t want to live in the shadow of her sisters, and wants to create her own legacy at Hogwarts.

Personality: Leigh is very...bubbly. She almost always has a bright, big smile lighting up her face, and her eyes sparkle with delight even when she’s not smiling. She’s sporty, energetic, and a bit spazzy at times. She’s the type of girl that likes to hang around boys more than girls, but has lately been more interested in boys as boyfriends, and not just friends. She's a tease, but doesn't really flirt too much.
She’s been swimming since she could walk, and she spends most summer days at the beach. Wether she’d be swimming, surfing, or just hanging out on the shore, the beach would be the place to find her whenever the weather was even somewhat warm.
She plays quidditch fairly well, and actually dreams of playing for a professional team. And as much as she may be athletic, she’s very brainy - therefor a Ravenclaw. She teases people a lot, and sticks up for what she believes in. I wouldn’t mess with her unless you want a lesson on how tough girls really can be.

Likes: Quidditch (she's a beater on the Ravvie team), animals, thunderstorms, the ocean, the beach, very, very hot weather, and the color green.

Dislikes: Rude, snotty people, and cold weather.

Pets: Four cats; Lil, Anna, Jeffrey, and Kenna. An owl, Humphry. Two pygmy puffs, Gel (green) and Mica (yellow)
-- Lil and both pygmy puffs are at Hogwarts with her --

POB Jack was born in Essex, on the outskirts of the capital city London. His parents resided to a countryside house with ultra large fields to cater for his and his two year old sister Vanessa's tendency to roll around on teh ground together.
DOB October 18th , originally due November 3rd.
PARENTS cherie vanessa tamworth (nee connors) and matthew jack tamworth
SIBLINGS vanessa mirabelle tamworth 2 + sally-anne tamworth 22
PERSONALITY jack is a smart boy, underneath the extreme childish exterior. He doesnt use his brain to good uses , like in lessons, he uses it to help his vivid imagination run wild into his written works. yes, jack tamworth writes. nothing big. just small little stories that his kid sister reads while he is at Hogwarts. Because hes ultra chldish Jack lacks true friends because he takes things to heart very easily and is an ultra emotional person. Despite that the couple of friends he has are the ones he does treasure. So hes childish. So hes a sappy softie that cries easily. So hes a loner. He thinks hes awesome and he knows he has an awesome life.
HISTORY: Jack Thomas Tamworth was born in Basildon Hospital , Basildon on October 18th 12:03 am. He was born a couple of weeks early and surprised his mother and father when he decided to come out early when they were at Cheries sisters wedding. The family spent 2 weeks living in the hospital with the older daughter Sally-Anne because Jack had alot of problems with his breathing and his heart. But after two weeks of being nursed and operations he was well enough to go home to the new house in the countryside bordering between London and Essex. The countryside manor gave Jack plenty of room to run around and roll down hills and annoy his sister with his pet worms Norris (2weeks) , Dorris(3 hours), Borris(4 days) and Norman (10 minutes) and the number 2's and 3's of them.

Jack and Sally-Anne never got along and more than likely never will. They bickered and fought over the slightest thing. And when Jack got into Hogwarts they fought over that. Sally-Anne decided she was smart enough to get into Hogwarts and attempted to ride the train but broke her nose on the wall. But her smartness was enough to spur Jack on to learn but he just couldnt keep it up with his studies due to the imaginative side to him. Thats when he started to write.

During the summers Jack has his cousin Vanessa over.

Name: Kyla Luciano
Nickname: Ky
House: Ravenclaw
Date of Birth: Febuary 14th
Age: 16
Year: 6th
Blood: Pure

Appearance
Eye Color: Green
Hair: Brown
Height: 5’6”

Personality
Kyla keeps to herself. She finds it difficult to talk to people, and shies away from them. She can only really open up to people she’s close to and comfortable with, but the only thing is, she’s always too shy to get that close to anyone. The most people she talks comfortably to are her two brothers. Kyla really does get embarrassed easily, too, especially when someone asks her a question, or if people talk to her. Though it’s not something that’s common, as everyone who knows either of her brothers knows what she’s like. She tries keeping away from crowds, as it means more people. She would like to be able to talk to people without embarrassing herself, but she just... Can’t. And the way she gets flustered by being talked to often makes others see her as weird. Kyla tries to keep away from any attention, and it works, most of the time, but she’s really clumsy. She can’t go anywhere without tripping over, hitting, knocking anything... Etc. Kyla tries to keep her emotions to herself, like with everything else about her, but it does show. If someone were paying attention, it would be easy to tell the slightest frown, annoyed, or sad expression. Her face shows brilliantly what she’s feeling, as much as she wished it didn’t. But it isn’t much to worry about, as most people don’t pay a great deal of attention to her. She’s very sweet and nice around her brothers, though, and very creative. If she’s alone with them, then she can really open up. She loves drawing, and writing, and her imagination runs away with her. Kyla is a very bashful girl towards herself, also part of the reason she is so shy. If anything is ever asked of Kyla, she hates saying no, even if she isn’t very close to you. Kyla doesn’t really talk to anyone if she can help it, but she pays a great deal of attention to everyone around her. She’s intuitive, and even the fraction of a change in expression, it’s easy for her to tell how they really feel. And she’s even intuitive about herself, as soon as she feels something; she nearly always knows what it is.

Family & Background
Having a wealthy family, neither bothered her, or made her happy. Kyla was always pretty indifferent about it. She loves her father Richard, but it doesn’t mean she’s particularly close to him, because, she isn’t. Her mother on the other hand, she is very close to. Alexis Luciano is a very cultural person, and tries to put that onto her children. With her sons, that doesn’t work to well. But... With her daughter, Kyla, she’s just as interested as Alexis is. It makes Kyla’s mother ecstatic that she actually likes drawing so much, going to art galleries, and will be happy to do all the other things she loves doing. Though Alexis is a very chatty, friendly woman, and so much more talkative then Kyla, they’re incredibly close. With their father’s job, he moves around a lot. Kyla and her two brothers, Niko and Clark, were all born in Italy. They lived there for quite a few years, until Kyla was four, before her and her family moved to Greece for a few years, where their mother used to live. At the age of seven, Kyla was back in Italy, for only a short year. That was when her father got a serious job in England, and once again, they moved instantly. Clark, the oldest, who was now eleven went to Hogwarts, followed by Niko two years later, and Kyla a year after that. They never moved from England again, though Richard travels a lot, still, it’s when Kyla is at Hogwarts, and for short periods of time. To anyone else, it would be amazing how close Kyla always is with her two brothers, Clark and Niko, the both really so different. Niko is playful, teasing, and always friendly to her, and also comforting if he wants to be. He’s extremely sweet to his younger sister, and fiercely protective. Clark, on the other hand, is a lot more reserved than his brother, and understanding of Kyla. He has the ability to talk easily, and does, but he has a very good way of understanding his sister, and he’s very responsible. The only thing he really has in common with Niko is his protectiveness of Kyla. When her father isn’t too busy in holidays, she and her family either go to Italy, or sometimes Greece, but this summer her father was too busy, so they stayed in England, Which she was fine about, as she liked it just as much as Greece or Italy. Just like Niko and Clark, Kyla's accent is very Italian, and she's even more fluent in the language then her brothers, and better in Greek, too.

Name: Niko Luciano
House: Gryffindor
Date of Birth: November 18
Age: 17
Year: 7th
Blood: Pure

Appearance
Eye Color: Light Blue
Hair: Dark Brown
Height: 6’1”

Personality
Niko is overall, very friendly. He’s playful, and teasing. He’s a very welcoming and out-going person. He’s really good at listening, and can be a chatterbox as well. He’s comforting when he thinks the time is right to be, and rather sweet. Niko finds it hard keeping things to himself, and he’s rather open. He loves meeting new people, and he won’t take no for an answer, from anyone. He’s confident, and very adventurous. He can be a bit silly sometimes with outrageous ideas, but he just likes having excitement. He is happy to say the truth about himself, and even admit his weaknesses. Getting Niko talking is something you may, or may not want to do, considering, as when he starts talking, he never seems to stop. He’s very easy to believe, even the most ludicrous of things, and easy to trust. Niko loves big crowds, too, and he’s interested about anyone around him at all.

Family & Background
He was brought up in a wealthy family, and though far from snobby, Niko has always enjoyed things like having a big house and lots of room outside to explore. Niko is close to both of his parents, but defiantly enjoys his father a lot more. It’s just because he’s always encouraging him to play sport, sport, and more sport. Richard is a bit of a fanatic, really, rather crazy about sport, in fact, but Niko never minded. He’s a bit of a fanatic himself. With their father’s job, he moves around a lot. Niko and his two siblings, Clark and Kyla, were all born in Italy. They lived there for quite a few years, until Niko was five, before he and his family moved to Greece for a few years, where their mother used to live. At the age of eight, Niko was back in Italy, for only a short year. That was when his father got a serious job in England, and once again, they moved instantly. Clark, the oldest, who was now eleven, went to Hogwarts, followed by Niko two years later, and Kyla a year after that. They never moved from England again, though Richard travels a lot, still, it’s when Niko is at Hogwarts, and for short periods of time. It is amazing how completely different Niko is from both Kyla and Clark. Niko always bickers a lot with Clark, Niko being a lot more immature and easy going, and Clark being very reserved and responsible, but they still get along. Niko is also really close to his sister, Kyla, even though she’s so quiet and shy, compared to the social, happy, and loud Niko. When his father isn’t too busy in holidays, Niko and his family either go to Italy, or sometimes Greece, but this summer his father was too busy, so they stayed in England, Which he was fine about, as he liked it just as much as Greece or Italy. Niko’s voice is still very Italian, without a trace of English in it. He is also completely fluent in Italian, and almost as good in Greek.

Name: Raven Rivera
House: Gryffindor
Date of Birth: August 16
Age: 17
Year: 7
Blood: Half Blood

Appearance
Eye Color: Crystal Blue
Hair: Dark Brown
Height: 6’0”
Complexion: Pale

Personality
Raven is, overall, rather friendly. He’s nice, and would be happy to talk to you, or help you out, he just wouldn’t be the best to trust with most things. He’s insightful, he sees things about people that most others don’t, but he’s still very troublesome. He may be seventeen, but he’s far from mature or responsible. He loves teasing people, and saying the outright truth. He doesn’t think about what will happen if he says something, until afterwards, but he’ll be able to guess the reactions of anyone listening to him. Raven is stubborn, and will never give in easy. It will take a bit of persuading for him to do anything that you’d like him to do. He is very argumentative, and he will never be the one to apologize first, even if he knows he should. Raven doesn’t like being bothered, or uncomfortable, and he blocks out anything he doesn’t want to listen to. It will take a lot to get him angry or annoyed, but calms off easily, too. He’s good at distracting himself from things he’d rather not think about, as well. Raven has a conscience, but he’s very shameless. He’s girl-crazy, and he’s almost proud of this fact.

Family & Background
Raven was brought up knowing just as much about non-magical things as magical things, being half-blood, and he likes it that way. He’s an only child, and though he has a rather big house, it’s pretty lonely, so it’s a good thing he lives near so many other wizarding families. Otherwise he’d probably go mad. He has a reputation for throwing lots of parties, whether at home or at Hogwarts, but he does more things than that, and thinks about girls. Raven loves being outside, swimming and being on a broom in particular. And he’s very social, and it’s very easy for him to talk to anyone. And he likes arguing, in a friendly manner of course, and often likes being right. As friendly as Raven is, as soon as he’s bothered by you, or he doesn’t want to talk to someone for whatever reason, he easily will blatantly ignore you, or give you a cold shoulder. He won’t be the one to decide to make up after a fight, because of a mixture between pride, arrogance and stubbornness.
