Personality[/b]
[This is a bit babbly at the minute, but hopefully will become more refined with RP]
Lara is a 'people person' in the sense she just seems to understand where people are coming and how they work. It's this SHREWD nature that helps a lot in her journalism, she knows exactly how to deal with the people she has to speak to, and thus before they know it, start spilling all sorts of details that they had planned on keeping quiet. Lara therefore converses with a certain easy charm that comes with her clever mind, though if conservation ever turns to something personal she becomes awkward and uncomfortable, and will always try to use her wit to get out of any unwanted questions. TRUST ISSUES are therefore apparent, and though she gives the appearance of being open and sociable, she actually very much keeps herself to herself.

Lara is, and has always been, PASSIONATE, which comes across in bundles in her writing. She believes in what she believes in, and is willing to fight all corners for it. Some therefore find her OPIONIONATED and STRONG HEADED, both of which she openly admits to being true. She is definately not someone to follow the crowd, but is willing to admit she is wrong. Lara also is rather CHANGEABLE, she seems to build up anger very easily, but it will also melt away just as fast. She is seen generally though as someone with a good sense of humour, often PLAYFUL and enjoying making others laugh.

Her CHARM, as mentioned, makes her easy to get along with, but she by no means lacks disagreements. She finds it hard to hide her dislike of arrogance and selfishness, and finds it an immediate turn off in the opposite sex. Relationship-wise, Lara has become stubborn about letting anyone in, mostly out of fear of being hurt. She has been in several relationships since school, none of which have lasted long, again probably reflected her difficulty with trust. She hates feeling vulnerable meaning she often bottles things up, contrasting with her considerable EMPATHY for others, often making her the 'shoulder to cry on'.

Appearance
[See graphics but also:]
There is a certain ELEGANCE about the way Lara dresses. She isn't a 'girly girl', but always makes what shes wearing feminine and has a good eye for what would suit her. Her make-up is usually simple, using natural colours, and used to emphasise her eyes. She is also quite tall at the height of 5 ft 10.

History

Played quidditch in Hogwarts as a chaser.
After leaving Hogwarts, Lara embarked on a year of travelling where she visited some of the historical and ancient magical sites of the world.

Job Details: I was thinking perhaps she could be a writer of a column in one of the existing papers? A column to do with what, I don't know yet.
