Name: Alyssa Veraldi
Nicknames: Lyssa
Age: 23 (born November 02, 2082)
Job: None Living off of her Families Wealth
Blood: Pure blood
Wand: cedar, 10 inches, veela hair and basilisk venom
Personality: From a young age Alyssa was a handful she did everything and anything to drive her parents crazy and it really wasn't because she didn't know what she was doing it was mainly because she could see how it frustrated them and she seemed to like it. Alyssa didn't care to be on anyone's good side not even her own parents.
Alyssa was a loner she didn't have any siblings and was happy for that because she didn't like to share and didn't want to have to compete with some other kid. That's because Alyssa was also very selfish she wanted everything for herself because she felt entitled to it. Despite her indifference her parents doted on her and gave her whatever she wanted and she didn't want some other little brat moving in on that.
As Alyssa grew older she became more and more mean. She wasn't the kind of girl other people could come to when they needed something because she didn't really care about the feelings of others. The only person that tended to matter to Alyssa was well Alyssa. If something didn't benefit her then she didn't really care.
Alyssa was very cunning, she knew how to get what she wanted from people. She knew the right words to say if someone wanted to hear they were smart she would tell them they were smart, if someone wanted to hear they were handsome well then she would say they were. Despite all her other attributes she was able to wrap people around her finger and she didn't have to try too hard to do it. She had this way about her that despite wanting to hate her she could draw you in and make you do what she wants.
People often underestimated Lyssa they thought that because she was petites, blonde, and attractive that there wasn't a brain under all those blonde curls. Of course that was totally untrue Lyssa was highly intelligent her intelligence was a bit above average which was why she wreaked havoc while in school but somehow managed to always stay out of trouble. She knew just what to do, how to do it, and how to avoid being caught.
Eyes: oval shaped, wide, dark blue/grey eyes. With long dark lashes, and nicely shaped eyebrows.
Hair: shoulder length blonde hair usually worn down with a slight curl at the end.
Height: 5'10 tall for a female but she enjoys towering over other girls since it gives her a sense of power.
General Appearance:
Dressing Style:
Lyssa only wears the best clothes she does the whole robe thing because that is what is expected of her in the wizarding world but Lyssa cannot help but love regular clothes. Luckily in the wizarding world there are several fashion icons. Lyssa will only wear clothes made by wizarding hands.
She loves to wear dresses the shorter the better because she knows she has a great figure one that men covet and women admire so she knows that showing it off gets her noticed for all the wrong and right reasons. She uses her body to get what she wants when she wants it and isn't ashamed to admit it.
She will don jeans and t-shirts but even those leave little to the imagination as they are usually tight fitting and clingy in all the right places so that people take notice when she walks by.
Lyssa also enjoys expensive materials like jackets and coats made of silk, leather, and best of all cashmere. She doesn't enjoy the typical wizarding materials like dragon hide but she does have boots made of it since they are in style. She's also very into high heeled shoes, the higher the better for her she loves the way these heels make her legs look.
She's not really into the casual look like sweatshirts and sweatpants. She doesn't believe that women should wear such things the most casual thing she owns is a pair of jeans that are a bit too loose and a weird sisters t-shirt that she bought a size too big because she couldn't find her own size.
Parents: Daniela and Elliot Veraldi
Relatives: None worth mentioning
History: Lyssa was born to Daniela and Elliot Veraldi both of them from Italy but the two grew up in London and both attended Hogwarts. The two came from pureblood families who were actually friends which is why Daniela and Elliot were promised to each other from a young age. Luckily the two had hit it off when meeting and managed to fall in love with each other even before they knew they were slated to be married when they were older.
They got hitched five years after graduation because the parents wanted a huge affair it was the talk of Italy for weeks to come. The couple wasted no time in trying to have children, but Daniela was having problems conceiving and it took another five years before they were able to create a baby. Alyssa was born and she was as most children are to their parents the light of their life. Lyssa was a pretty difficult child from early on always crying and throwing temper tantrums to get her way.
She thrived being the center of attention with her parents, she did not want any siblings and was actually grateful that her mother could not conceive anymore children. She wanted to be the center of their world the only one they thought about. This suited her just well. She didn't play well with others which was why she was kept far away from the other children in the neighborhood. When she was about six her mother tried to get her to play with some of the other kids and Lyssa managed to talk them into leaving the comfort of her backyard in and playing in the streets one of the children almost got hit by a car and after that her parents kept her away from the children who had no idea why they ended up in the street in the first place.
That was Lyssa's first foray into her powers. She knew that day that she was different and she didn't stop until she found out what it was. Her parents finally told her that she was a witch and that she had powers Lyssa loved hearing this, knew that she was meant to be something greater. Though she was young Lyssa thought very highly of herself. The more she grew the more her powers grew though she was forbidden to do magic in the house of course she sneaked a bit when her parents weren't looking who wouldn't.
Lyssa was never more happy then when she finally got accepted into Hogwarts School of Witchcraft and Wizadry. Now she would be able to learn more about her magic, learn how to control it, learn how to use it. She longed for this and couldn't stop feeling smug when she made her way there.
In no time at all Alyssa proved she was a formidable opponent for anyone, male or female. She didn't shy away from hard work, she could learn spells in a matter of minutes, she could pass a test without studying. She thrived in the magical world though she felt loss at the fact that Hogwarts didn't delve into the Dark Arts. For some reason Alyssa was extremely fascinated by the Dark Arts the older she got the more time she spent trying to learn about them.
She was also very much into the purity of blood her parents often discussed how disappointed they were that Hogwarts didn't take a more firm stance when it came to making the school more pureblood friendly. Alyssa often thought that the old dark lord Voldemort had things right. She read up about him as well and she didn't understand why more people didn't stand behind him.
As she got older and left school her views about a pureblood world had not changed in fact they only seemed to intensify she wanted to find someone who shared her views, she was ready and thought it was time for someone to take over and continue where the last dark lord left off, and she was ready to stand with whomever would dare try to change the status quo.
