orange juice, and iced tea.
[/li][li] Continues to write coded Hieroglyphic messages to others
since she was a child.

was placed in Gryffindor.

just cool enough for her. (she burns easily and doesn't like heat)
[/li][li] Common courtesy, and respect.
[/li][li] Laughing.[/size][/color][/li][/ul]
[li] Her cousins, save for the exception of Cairo. She tolerates
them and their nasty attitude because of her martial arts training;
respect and patience with others are only two of the ways to
better oneself.
[/li][li] Disrespect and rudeness.

[/li][li] Sexism.[/color][/size][/li][/ul]
[li] She can be too trusting at times, and its cost her in the past.
[/li][li] Taking a break when her excercising gets too intense.
[/li][li] Putting herself before others (she is extremely self-less, and
forgets to make sure shes okay in a situation too)
[/li][/ul][/size][/color]Personality: Sky's exterior is that of a very patient and calm person,
but she isn't afraid to break through when she finds something
funny, or insulting. Brave-willed, in her life lessons and martial arts
training she has learned to control its blinding nature, able to
think and calculate clearly even in the most dangerous of
situations. There is a lot of depth to Sky, but what stands out
most is her patience. Being in Kung Fu for such a long time
has developed her calm nature and patience, as well as her
deep respect.
Very withdrawn from drama, Sky prefers to remain knowledgable
of whats going on in a given situation, but she will choose not to
get involved. When she was younger and much more naive she
would stick her nose in business it didn't belong in, only to cost
her later on, so she has learned not to do that anymore. Sky
finds nothing more enjoyable than taking care of people, whether
it be her drunken friends or an injured animal, or even an injured
person. This was what her love for healing stemmed from, and
why she got into the healing business.
She cant be classified as someone whos excessively silly all the
time, but she has her moments. Even when something isn't funny
anymore she'll still be laughing, at the point where a few days later
someone will get fed up and tell her to quit with the giggling.
Sky never loses her temper, and prefers to negotiate people
out of fighting before engaging them with her training. Its better
to try and dissuade them from attacking rather than having to
pound the crap out of them right off the bat. Her loyalty is
unquestionable, but there are times were she wondered if she'll
end up paying for how high she puts others above herself.[/size]

History[/color]
Mother: Arabesca Grace (49)[/size]
Father: Lium
Sibling: --[/size]
Aunts: Amelia and Melinda Grace[/size]
Cousins: Erys (18), Cairo (16), and Matthew Grace (18)[/size]
Arabesca, born and raised an heir to the Grace fortune, never thought
that of all the people she could fall in love with, it would be a muggle.
She met him on an experimental trip to the muggle world on business
as an Unspeakable--the Minister for Magic at the time was concerned
with the barriers shielding their world from muggle eyes. He literally
ran into her when she was about to enter the Leaky Cauldron, and,
after looking at her rather questioningly as she was--in his eyes--
about to walk into a boarded-up building, asked her to lunch. She
at first tried to give him the shake, but he persisted, and eventually
won her over with his wit and charm.
Afraid of what her strictly magic, strictly pureblood family would think,
Arabesca hid her marriage from them. It was only when her meddlesome
younger sisters were digging into some files did they find their sister
was wedded to vermin. The files were photocopied and sent
to every doorstep of the Grace Clan, and the news was blown wide
open. Arabesca was then forsaken from the family line, though in
her defiance she proceded to keep the Grace name, unwilling to
officially change it because of some spat with her family. That was
her name, born and raised, and she wasn't going to give it up
because they told her to. Choosing instead to live a few blocks
away from the Leaky Cauldron with Lium, a year or two later she
had a baby girl named Schuyler. Sky was at first a very temperamental
and stubborn child, which is essential the reason why she was
enrolled in Kung Fu, to give her patience and respect. It worked,
and she continued her studies far into adulthood, never taking
a break even once, she loved martial arts so much. Even more
drama ensued however when she was placed in Gryffindor;
word flew back to the ears of the Grace Clan and yet again they
were ashamed, but for another reason: one of theirs, or what
would have been one of theirs, was a Gryffindor. It was disgusting,
in their eyes.
Schuyler however knew patience, and tolerance, and she carefully
avoided the scrutinizing eyes of her 'family', continuing to grow
and mature as a beautiful woman. She developed a love for healing
in her teenage years, managing to land a job as an apprentice
Healer at Hogwarts, which she retained for many years until she
had enough experiance under her belt to accept a full-time job.
