About You What should we call you? Please, call me Brooke. What is your gender? I’m female. How can we get in touch with you? Through my email, bombbrookie@yahoo.com How did you know we were here? I saw a board about it on Neopets, and talked to spiders_seventh_ghos. Did you read all of the rules? Of course! Show us a sample post, from any game. A recent one would be nice. Doesn’t have to be the character you’re applying for.
How many characters do you currently have on this board? Zero. Anything else you want to tell us before we begin? I’ve been roleplaying for about six years now, ever since Neopets started becoming boring to me. Oh, and I love Harry Potter. A lot. About Your Character Basics Full name: Marlene Marie McKinnon Nicknames: Marlie, Lene, Marls, Micky. Mickey Mouse.<br> Ancestry: Unsure. My mom is a Muggle, and my “dad” left us when I was just a few months old. Luckily, my new stepdad turned out to be a Muggle-born wizard, or else I would’ve thought I was going crazy. Gender: Decidedly, female. And if I’m not, then I’ve been buying the wrong kind of underwear. Age: Fifth Year. Birthday: January 6th, 1960 Sorted into: Gryffindor! That's what is up. Who do you follow? Nobody! I do whatever my heart tells me is right. Wand: Nine and three fourths inches, ash, unicorn hair core. Personal Sexuality: Straight as uncooked spaghetti. Likes: Reading; maybe I should've been in Ravenclaw... Lily Evans; she’s my home girl. She’s one of the most amazing, nonjudgmental people I’ve ever met, and I’m glad that I have her in my life. Climbing trees. Going into the forest. But shhhh! I’m supposed to be a role model student. Spending time out in the grounds. Sneaking out in the middle of the night, and just laying on the grounds, looking at the stars. Having somebody to look up at with stars with. Muggle children’s games, especially Hide and Seek. Flying; it’s such an amazing, weightless feeling. Staying and waking up late. Having a good time (; Flirting. But I’m NOT a slut. I know where to draw the lines. Dislikes: Staying inside. Waking up early. Going to bed early. Being unprepared for a test. Being taken for a Mary Jane type. Not being in control. Being scared. Clingy people. Water balloons aren’t fun. D: Strengths: I’m a good cook. Seriously, I could probably make just about anything; only the house elves at Hogwarts could surpass me. I’m not easily scared, in fact I will probably find something funny in it. I’m strong. Emotionally and physically My intelligence. It’s gotten me out of more than one scrape. Resourcefulness. Sending me muggle camping with just a knife and a sleeping bag, and I can get by for a week or so. My friends know me for my loud mouth mouth and being outspoken around them. I’m a lot of fun to be around, and I get the most insane ideas for fun. I’m really, really good at keeping secrets. Weaknesses: My temper. DON’T get me mad at you. That’s all I have to say. I’m really sarcastic. I probably think of a comment to say about everything, but I keep my mouth shut. I’m very quiet until I get to know you. Ditto for being shy. I can be pretty vain. I have no patience. At all. Goals: Being an Unspeakable. As long as I’ve known about the whole Wizarding World, I’ve wanted to be in on the Ministry’s biggest secrets, helping them to discover the world’s secrets, and all of that. Learning to trust people is something that I have to work on. Fears: People. They can be the scariest, most dangerous thing. Rotten limbs on trees that are high up. The giant squid. Getting my heartbroken. Flying bugs, especially bees. Being in love scares me. It leads to heartbreak. People not knowing me. Being easily forgotten. Everyone hating me. I don’t take even one person mildly disliking me well. Tics, Quirks & Habits: Sarcastic, but I’ve already mentioned this. Keeping my opinions quiet when I’m around people I don’t know particularly well. Climbing to the tops of trees. Swimming in the lake the fifteenth of May, every year. Laughing randomly. Humming children's lullabies as I do my potions work. Pet Peeves: Loud noises when I’m just trying to be calm and alone. Slytherins. Clingy people. Obnoxious people. Favorite sounds and smells: Homemade cookies! Who doesn’t like them? <br> I have an uncanny obsession with mashed potatoes, they have to be my favorite food, and so I love the smell of them. I love fruity smells, also. They’re great. Have you ever met a boggart? What does it look like? An ex boyfriend of my mums… Can you cast Patronus? What does it look like? What memory do you use? Yes, I can. It looks like a lioness, actually. And I used the memory of when my mom and my stepdad got married, because I knew that my life was going to finally start looking up. What is the worst memory Dementors bring forward? Um…it’s a very personal thing. If you were to find the Mirror of Erised, what would you see? I’d see me, being happy. Being comfortable in my own skin. Tell me a couple secrets about yourself: No thanks! I like to keep my secrets to myself. And yeah; I know that that makes me a hypocrite. Personality: Around my friends, I’m a very loud, outspoken person. I’m not afraid to tell them what’s on my mind. Around them, I’m charming. Around people that I don’t know, I’m quiet, I don’t like to talk to them, and so they may get the impression that I’m a snob. Teachers think that I’m a quiet, intelligent, capable, respectful person. And honestly? I’m not sure who I am. I’m still figuring that but out. Looks Distinguishing Features: Uhm. Well, I don’t really think that there is a distinguishing characteristic, except I guess…maybe my hair? It’s dark brown and chesnut mixed in together, and it’s pretty curly. Not-so-distinguishing features: Uh..not really. Well, except that I tend to fidget a lot, and ball my hands into fists when I’m uncomfortable. Appearance: My dad was part Hispanic, and I’ve got his hair color and texture, (afore mentioned), but my mom was the classic English rose, so I’ve got these big blue eyes. I’m quite good looking, or at least that’s what I’m told. I have her slight build, also. But that slight build is prone to be soft, rather than muscular, so I work very hard to keep myself in shape. Place of Birth: London General Hospital. Immediate family: My mum, Georgie, my stepdad, Alexander, who I just call my dad, and my half sisters, Alice and Leah. Extended family: My grandmother, Aleyna, and my grandfather, Jacob. Other important people: Lily Evans! That’s my girl right there. Pets: I have an owl, his name is Shakespeare, and I have three dogs back home; a great dane named Oliver, a golden retriever named Sadie, and one who is a mix of black lab and beagle, named Shaquandarifa. History: When I was just eight months old, my dad, walked out the door and never came back. My mom raised me singlehandedly herself for many years, with boyfriends coming in and out of the picture. One of these, Mike, was not a nice person. He would drink, come back to our house, and beat up on my mom. One of these times, he did something, that was inappropriate. It was jsut after I turned eleven. So it’s hard for me to trust people. But then, the next year, my mom met Alex, and they fell in love. Their wedding was one of the few times I can really remember being happy. Misc Anything else you want to share? No, I think I’ve shared enough. Edited by Brooke, Jul 12 2009, 11:47 PM.

Accepted by Spider! Let me know if you'd like a journal/private forum for Marlene. Also, when we get a Lily, just doublecheck to make sure such close ties are welcome. Edited by Spider, Jun 14 2009, 06:00 AM.
