The Character
Name: Christine McKenzie
Nicknames (if any): Chris or Chrissy
Year: 6th
House: Slytherin
Blood: Half-blood
Wand: 9 inches, willow, Veela hair core
Personality: (Optional if you have graphics.)
Christine is very proud and ambitious, often a little too forward. She's often very rude, especially to people who aren't purebloods like herself. She's a very typical Slytherin and is quite proud of her house. Christine has been known to be very cunning in achieving her goals and she can also be very demanding. Her temper has been known to get the best of her and she never cared what others thought. Being always told that she must be the perfect witch, meant nothing if she couldn't defend herself when the time called for it. But to every Slytherin there is a good side, she can be nice and caring once she gets to know someone. Just as long they're pure-bloods and wicked as her.
Appearance:
Eyes: Her big hazel eyes are dark, with the long lashes that surround them. Usually she wears some make-up around them, not to much, but at least eyeliner.
Hair: Chris's hair is dark brown, and pretty long. It reaches to just about the middle of her back and can get in the way sometimes but she doesn't mind much. She has had long hair since she was a kid. During classes she'll usually keep it up in a pony tail or at least with half of it up, half down. On her off days she usually leaves it down. Her bangs are cut around her forehead and sometimes she pushes them to the sides, just to get them off of her face.
Height: 5'7
General Appearance: Chris has a somewhat small frame to her and because she is as tall as she is it shows a bit more. She doesn't have to much muscle because she doesn't really need it much. Though she may have the muscle she still looks tough, which she is. Usually she isn't smiling and when she is its nothing more then a smirk, the kind that make you wonder if she's making fun of you in her head, which she usually is. Her facial features are somewhat feminine, with naturally pink lips and white teeth. She has her mothers eyes and her fathers chin, or so her mother says. She has tan skin and light freckles in certain spots. There are a few on her face but more during the summer. Most of them are around her shoulders and neck for some reason. Other then those she doesn't have any natural or birth marks. She does have scars however, the biggest of them would be the burn marks on the bottom of her left fore arm. From a bad experiment and fairly recent. She also has a few on her knees from her childhood.
History:
Chris was born into a family who were all Slytherins with two kids already apart of it. Her older brother Jacob and older sister Sophie. Chris was never as close to Jacob or Sophie, like they were to each other. They had already established a pretty firm relationship and Chris was just adding to it. She focused on her studies that her parents had signed all their children up for. They each had their own tutor who taught them Literature, Languages, and Mathematics. They were also instructed on the not so basic piano and dancing.
Life was very good for Chris. When she was eight, Sophie started her first year of Hogwarts and how badly she would have loved to go along with her. Hogwarts had always been something Chris planned on going to and enjoying. Most likely the best thing that would ever happen to her. Jacob was already in school. He was a heart breaker. His looks were priceless and everyone noticed. Sophie was more fair and light, with tan skin and brown hair. Chris was dark haired and hazel eyes, both from her parents.
By the time Chris was eight, she had already traveled to the most luxurious places. Their parents had gotten tried of staying at home and wanted to travel. Seeing as Chris was the only child at home, she was taken with them. They traveled all over the world, but all good things must come to an end.
When Chris was eleven she hopped on the train to Hogwarts, traveling with her brother and sister into a place that will set the rest of her life.
