Shayla McNamara

[Shayla McNamara]

Nicknames: Shay, Rose
Job Title: Hogwarts Healer
Age: 26
Blood: half
Wand: 8 1/2 Rosewood, Phoenix Feather

Personality:
Shayla is a free spirited young woman with a heart of gold. Always willing to stop what she's doing to help another. Smiling at everyone was the best way to lift everyone's spirit, at least that's what she believes. Shayla enjoys making people laugh and smile. Sometimes she even has a tendency of making a complete fool out of herself. Confident and witty were the terms used on more than one occasion to define her. Sure, Shayla was confident. That's only because she's learned not to let what people say get to her. Often on her toes and working hard to succeed at life, she has found hardships too. Many like to think she's perfect, but no, Shayla is far from perfect. She does have a wild streak in her and has paid the consequences dearly for it. Shayla often suffers from severe anxiety, this usually happens at night. She's been like that since she was a teenager. However, she doesn't let that affect her job or her daily routine.

Intelligent and a hopeless romantic at heart, you will sometimes catch her reading a book from her favorite muggle author Jane Austen. Sometimes wishing that her life could be like the characters in the books that she reads, yet understands that it would never happen to her. So that's when reality sets in. Yes, Shayla is a day dreamer and sometimes but on rare occasions a procrastinator. She lives a simple life and is sort of happy with the way things are, just hopes that maybe one day it will get better. Her temperament is something that you will need to watch with her, saying the wrong things at the wrong time will find you in a mess that you wish you never said anything. She can be callous and mean, again this is just on rare occasions. Pretty much like when she's having a really bad day.

History:

Mother: Carma Renae McNamara (Deceased)
Father: Sean Franklin McNamara


Shayla was born on December 25th, to Sean and Carma McNamara, two very loving people. Sean worked for the Ministry and Carma was a shop owner at one point before a group of Dark wizards destroyed her shop and murdered her. Shayla was only five at the time of her mothers death. So it was just her and her father from then on. Shayla and her father moved around London and the Greater UK and still she was able to attend Hogwarts at the age of eleven. Through her first year Shayla made some friends and got herself caught up in Quidditch along with other extra curricular activities. As years passed, Shayla did well and excelled in Herbology and Potions, they were her best subjects. She did well in other subjects, but those were her two favorite subjects.

During her fifth year, Shayla started thinking ahead and began to prepare for her future. Things like what she wanted to do as a career, what she would need to do before getting that sort of job. Just little things like that. Like every girl, she's dated around and had her heart broken, but eventually got herself back together. She was never one to dwell on things for too long, it cramped her style. Yes, Shayla had style. After Shayla turned seventeen, she worked part time with the Herbology and Potions Professor. Something like an apprentice. When she graduated, Shayla continued to stay at Hogwarts to learn more about her two favorite subjects so that she had a better understanding of both of them. Three years had passed which made Shayla at this point, twenty one.

Deciding that it was time to leave Hogwarts, Shayla went out and applied for a Healer position at St. Mungos. To her surprise, she was given the position and this is where she resided for the next four years. During those four years, she worked hard to maintain a good work ethic. Come to work early and left work late, hardly having time for much of any pleasures in life. Being a Healer in her eyes was a tough job, but it had it's advantages and disadvantages. For the most part, she loved what she did. Helping people was something she always enjoyed doing, not only that but helping children was the best part. Seeing the smiles on their faces as she left their rooms, it was great.

Shayla at one point began dating a fellow co-worker named Christopher, for them it was convenient to have such a relationship. They practically worked the same shifts, ate at the same time, worked on the same level. So how could she not. Well, unfortunately it didn't last long because he had to leave St. Mungos and went off traveling the world. So there went the hopes of living happily ever after down the drain. Moving on from that, she continued her day to day routine of taking excellent care of her patients. On the day of her twenty sixth birthday, word got around that Hogwarts was hiring another Healer because one had quit for some unannounced reason. Shayla decided it was time for a change and went to apply for the position. Now it's just a matter of time before she hears back from the school of whether or not she received the position.
