Leona's family life is quite amazing. Even with nannies and other care takers Leona never felt like her parents abandoned her, and they gave her and her siblings more attention than most children.
Her twin is her be all end all. In Leona's mind she's the only person who understands exactly what she's going through. And she's really the only she feels comfortable being herself with. Ever since she was a child she has equated Diana to be her equal in everyway.
Kain wasn't her favorite at first, but she grew to love him especially finding out all the fun stuff you can make a little brother do. They get along fairly well but still have a fairly typical older sister/little brother relationship.
Leona gets along very well with her mother, they have a lot in common and share a lot of the same interest. While her father babied her to the max. Leona can ask Darius for just about anything, and he will eventually bend to her wants.
APPEARANCE How do they prefer to dress? How do they hold themselves? What sort of first impression do they make? Tattoos, jewellery, distinctive marks etc.
Leona is naturally beautiful and she knows it. (However that doesn't stop her from always being made up.) Sharp, lovely features. Icy blue eyes she inherited from her father. Very long dark hair that she cherishes and is quite attached to. Leona is rather tall, she stands at about 5'7", but she has a feeling she is still growing and might land at around 5'9" like her parents. Leona is quite think and while she plays that she is naturally blessed, she does work out and eats right for the most part. And even skips a meal or two if she's feeling especially bloated.
People tend to be intimidated by Leona at first because she is very tall and stoic at first glance. Leona has a ridiculously huge closet. Brands MATTER. Usually dresses sexy. Always dresses trendily. Sweat pants are only for sick days. Her massive shoe collection is her pride and joy.
Leona has no tattoos, but she’s dying to get something cute on her wrist.
PERSONALITY
Strengths Please include 6-12 and at least 1-2 sentences explaining each one. Charming - Leona is good at putting up a likable act. Being from a respectable pureblooded home, she knows how to be cordial and how to carry on a conversation. Even feign interest. Most people just meeting Leona speak very highly of her. Organized/Tidy - Messes are gross. Leona is and always has been about the appearance of things. She can't really brag about her amazing shoe closet if she can't even show it to people because she's a disgusting slob. It probably runs deeper for her, because messes bother her and she always cleans up after herself. Confident - Leona knows her worth, she's at least a 9 out of 10 and anyone who says otherwise is jealous and probably ugly. If she wants something, she goes to get it. And she's not worried in her capabilities at all. Strong - It goes hand in hand with her confidence and healthy self-esteem. But Leona can take a mental beating. Verbal arguments are nothing for her, people criticizing her are probably wrong. Or ugly. Or poor. There are few in the world whose words really impact her, and it's family. Cunning - While Leona is smart, her intelligence lies more in her abilities to deceive and manipulate. While she'll never get anything higher than a P in arithmancy, she will be able to find a way to get out of trouble for it. She's also taken things from people right in front of them. It's all about distracting them. Intuitive - Leona can read a situation pretty well. She knows what things to say to push the right buttons. And it only helps her to be a more popular student.
Weaknesses Please include 6-12 and at least 1-2 sentences explaining each one. Narcissistic - This is probably the most obvious of Leona's flaws. If she passes by a mirror she can't help but check herself out. She was blessed with good looks and why is it so wrong to be aware of that? She can spend hours getting ready for the day, and it has resulted in a detention or two for being late to class. Leona hands down thinks she's better looking that 80% of the population. And that life is too short to hang out with ugly people. Unless you have too. Manipulative - Now while Leona doesn't really think of this being a con, most people who have gone through the ring of fire she calls friendship, know her to be terrible person who doesn't really care about anyone but herself. Leona will use people to get what she wants. Leona will use whatever emotional ups and downs needed to happen in order to stay on top, it's even better if she's able to keep their 'friendship'. Callous - When she hears about bad things happening to people she doesn't like, she laughs. She just doesn't care about the well being of other people. She might act like it sometimes but she really just doesn't. Leona doesn't mind sabotaging people to get what she wants. Vengeful - Don't fuck with her. Even the slightest insult and that person is on Leona's list. She'll make sure you get something in return, it might not be immediately, and you might not know she did it. But she'll make sure you hurt worse than she did. Apathetic - If Leona doesn't care about it, she's not going to make any effort towards it. Plain and simple. She participates in most classes, but only really does homework for half of them. And rarely ever studies. Why bother? She's never going to work, and she's going to marry rich to add to her own inheritance. Blunt - Leona is completely capable of saying what she thinks needs to be said. Being apathetic about what most people think helps a lot with that.
Patronus: Not that she can perform a patronus, but if she could it would be a mink. Patronus Memory: The thrill she gets from shopping.
Mirror of Erised: Leona would be queen of everything. Living a fabulous life, with attractive people who give her their undivided attention.
Boggart: The losing of her twin, and being marred in the process.
HISTORY
Childhood Really happy childhood. Parents always cared for them. Grew up side by side a happy child with her twin. Of course spoiled but not rotten.
Leona had an amazing childhood. It was a loving family and she had anything she ever wanted. Plus a companion who was growing alongside her. From day one Leona ate up the attention that was given to her, and she loved being the center of attention. She truly was a daddy’s girl.
It would be a lie if anyone told you Leona was happy at her little brother, Kain’s, arrival. He took the attention off of her. He didn’t do anything interesting, and half the time he smelled. However she began to warm up to him when he started being able to crawl around and when the buzz of the new baby calmed down.
Leona was quite the social little butterfly, she liked making friends. Leona loved the feeling of someone liking her. She was no stranger to making clubs with her friends where they all pretended to be ladies who were fashion models but also hair stylists, princesses and the occasional mermaid. Playing pretend was her favorite, she had to have all of the dress up clothes. An outfit for any purpose, and all occasions.
Being a twin was the absolute best. Leona always had a friend, someone to listen to her ramble on. She was never lonely with Diana.
Leona was also extremely close to her parents as a child. She loved being doted over, being dressed up in the prettiest of dresses was her absolute favorite thing and something that she and her mother bonded over.
Getting ready for Hogwarts was probably one of the most exciting times for Leona. She could hardly stop talking about how she and Diana would be in the same house (probably Hufflepuff like daddy.). She got the prettiest wand, and the most absolutely adorable ragamuffin kitten (named Princess) after she begged and begged, and pleaded her father for.
Hogwarts Years Leona really, REALLY, thought she was going to be sorted into Hufflepuff. Diana was, just moments before her. The hat told her that Hufflepuff was a fair choice for her, but she had a more cunning mind better suited for Slytherin. Leona panicked the second he made his choice. Would she be able to see her sister at all? Embarrassingly she cried while peeling herself away from her sister to join her new housemates.
The group of girls Leona ended up aligning herself with all had a similar family background. Rich, and pureblooded. They all were obsessed with the latest beauty and fashion trends. That suited Leona just fine, being as naturally pretty and charismatic as she was it was an easy social climb.
Leona flourished as a socialite, and became quite popular. Boys had always taken notice of her, but she almost had her first sexual encounter in her fourth year with a boy who was also inexperienced. He wasn't her boyfriend or anything, but she felt pressured into it. Leona panicked and yelled loudly about his 'grotesque, tiny penis' and ran off. She only felt slightly bad, but forgot about it quickly while she joked about it to her friends.
Her schooling however was a different story, Leona had taken on the notion that she didn't need to get good grades to succeed in life, as she never planned on working and marrying into a good family. So in the subjects that didn't interest her she put minimal effort into it. While excelling in wand magic, especially transfiguration. As you can imagine, she likes to pretty things up.
Her group of friends pretty much remains the same through out her years. Pretty, rich, and pureblooded. And she's no stranger to parties. Leona is quick to pick up and drop friends, especially if they show disloyalty to her. But being as manipulative as she is, and needy for attention she tends to string people along, regardless if she likes them or not.
WRITING SAMPLES
First Person: I'm so annoyed that we have to get our student cloaks from Madam Malkin's, first of all I'm pretty sure that when you make an appointment at 1 pm, that means that you're supposed to take my measurements AT THE LATEST at 1:15. I was waiting there for an hour before anyone saw to me. I think maybe if they're going to be Hogwart's only source of school robes that they should learn how to conduct business at a higher rate. Though I'm sure hiring more people would just be a waste because they only get a dozen customers a year willing to spend more than a galleon or two.
[Private to Daddy]
Daddy, is there any possible way you can ask the headmaster to make an exception for me? I'd much rather have the tailors at Mummy's shop make my robes.
PLOT IDEAS
Interactions with family and having such a different but awesome twin.
Being a baddie and supporting blood purism.
Very interested in seeing someone actually put her in her place.
Skanking it up, possibly even see her finding a sugar daddy.
