Appearance:

Marie is of Asian decent. More specifically, Vietnamese . Her hair and eyes, like most of Asian decent, are dark brown. Why dark brown and not black? Because she had learned in her years of living that her hair was not completely black when shown in the sun, nor were her eyes. Her hair is in layers and long enough so that if she wanted to put her hair up in a bun, she could...but she could also let it down so it was at a comfortable length. Her eyes should be about the average size, her lips perked ever so slightly. Her skin is not pale...but carries a slightly brown and yellow hue...which is what most expect from Vietnamese people. Emotions are usually expressed with body language...as she had heard from a certain movie (Reference to HITCH). She was no different from everyone else. However, she spoke little and tended to show her emotions, not by her facial expressions, but by body expressions. A simple happy expression would be a little more bounce in the way she walked. A simple sad expression would be fidgeting with her fingers, arms and legs.

Her medium sized body gave her fully expressed curves and she had developed all in the right places. However, she isn't as petite as a stick like person. She still had some meat on her pack of bones. Her height would be somewhere around 5 feet 6 inches. Her weight, somewhere between 112 - 115 pounds. Flaws would be at her nails. Because of her nervous habit, she usually had none to go around on her hands.

Her closet held many different clothing that she had brought with her. For casual wear, just a t shirt and shorts. For outside, it could be a hat and something very stylish (like a pretty dress), or something very down to earth (like a ripped t shirt and jeans). She had no specific style to follow to. As for shoes, she didn't have many. She could be wearing either a pair of sneakers, or a pair of Mary Janes. Just to be old fashioned.

Personality:

As I have described in her appearance, Marie hardly ever shows her emotions through her mouth or her facial features. Most of her emotions are spoken through body language. Not sitting too close to someone would probably mean she didn't really feel like in a good mood. While in a good mood, she wouldn't really care. What she tends to do most during her nervous moods (and a lot while listening to class), she bites her nails. When there are no nails to bite, she returns to her skin and nibbles there. It is unsanitary to do so...but not everyone was perfect, and this habit wasn't easy to break.

She is usually very quiet. Hardly ever talks in class unless called upon by her teachers. And outside of class, she would almost never speak unless spoken to. It doesn't mean she's not exactly 'nice'. It just means that she rathered use her body to speak than her mouth. Friends were hard to come by...because she wasn't exactly the person to run around and socialize. But on the other hand, she didn't look like a wall flower either. She would talk at rare occasions and even when she didn't, her confidence and attitude showed in her actions. not like a shy girl would. In the midst of her classmates arguing with each other, her choice was to walk away. It didn't concern her in anyway...so being nosey wasn't really the right thing to do. Her everyday hobbies would be to dress up. She sat in her dorms just making a new face with anything she could find. She would make her hair into weird positions and study herself in the mirror, sometimes for hours. She had nothing better to do. This gave her the term of: The girl with many faces. She liked being someone else more than being herself...up to the point that she would even rather see someone else in the mirror instead of her own face.

Likes and dislikes include many different things. She dislikes dull flavors and usually snacks on sweets or sours. Typical Shanghai tongue (she inherited from her father). She also has a weird habit of never drinking warm drinks to cure thirst. When she was a baby, she drank cold milk from the fridge rather than warm milk. She can speak both Manderine and Shanghainese. Though she may not seem like it, she tends to do the opposite of what she really wants to do. In Care for Magical Creatures, she cared very well...but in the end, she just made everything worse. Hence why it is her worst subject. Only when caring, she is confused at how to do it. So, from far away, she looks like a person filled with malice...secrets...and thoughts. But truthfully, she's very simple...and there are very few things she dislikes.

History:

When she was just born, she was brought to Vietnam to let all of her relatives see her. Her mother had married a man in Paris and had moved there with him. So, she is French...but at the same time, Vietnamese. Almost all of her mother's relatives and friends were there to greet the new born girl and so, she grew up in a world of love. When she was just two years old, she started Pre-K in Vietnam. Her mother had left her there with her grandparents for two years before she came back to the France for Kindergarten. Vietnamese was her first language.

Starting a new language, though hard for some, was fairly easy for her. in a matter of two months, Anna was speaking correct French...and very good French too. But after a while, her mother divorced her father for cheating on her and raised Anna all by herself. Soon, Anna had a step dad...and though he wasn't her blood father, he should've just as well been her real father. Both her parents were muggles and unaware of Anna's developing skills. However, Anna seemed to have inherited some magic from her great grandmother, who laid in a hospital bed all day from her broken leg. Anna had no idea until July...she was 9 and a half and almost to her 10th birthday. At first, she believed nothing of it. No one knew of it. Her parents said it was some prank...until another one arrived...and another...and another. Anna just decided to follow the directions in the letter to see where it might lead her. It lead her to Hogwarts.

After that, it was year after year of new and exciting things...things she had never heard of in her life. It took a while for her parents to except it...but at the end, it was just her life...and they supported it. She worked hard in her studies and did her best so she could learn more and excel. Her dream was to become a teacher...and teach other girls and boys like her. She would never say it...but she liked the thought of being a Witch. It just made another part of her life more exciting.

Notes: I love your character's personality, and the way she contradicts herself when she tries to show she cares but ends up messing it up. She's one of the most original characters (personality-wise) that I've seen in a while. Welcome to The Horcrux!
