Family History (Go into detail, if possible):
{ IN THE EYES OF THE BEHOLDER
As a chilly wind came passing by, a young woman, no older than eighteen years of age approached the location she feared more than any where else. The soft crunches of her feet colliding (nearly gliding) against the snow beneath her echoed throughout the still place, as if expecting a havoc to occur. The day she had detested came arriving rather very quickly with open arms, as if mocking her utterly and knowingly. The large, semi Citadel house lingered, darkness emitting from its every corner whilst attempting to entice her about leaving. Reluctantly, and with a little hesitation, the young woman meditated for mere moments, but finally allowed her hands to make contact with the huge, cold gates of her, once upon a time, so-called home. The silence heralded the outcome of the meeting, and eeriness had already filled this place, as if it was a messenger sending towards her the bad omens of the past. Undergoing through many difficulties, the young pureblooded witch had never understood the meaning of l o v e in that bitter house, but now, here she is, attempting to retrieve the lost memories and exiting her former "house" undefiled or demorazlied. The halls darkened, and pressed upon the fragile figure in the center of the dungeon, knowing that she needed comfort, yet giving her otherwise. The portraits glared at her knowingly... knowing what she had had within her. A monster...
{ HE SAID, SHE SAID
"WHAT?!" had bellowed througout the silence, forcing Aphrodite Guinevere to squirm and cringe a little. Returning to her former state of courage, Aphrodite shook merely with her eyes piercing through the emerald green ones of her father in which she had once inherited from him, and apparently, will be the only thing she will inherit. Due to her mother's death, Aphrodite's father had treated Aphrodite badly, Aphrodite vowing to never hurt the young living thing inside of her. Her hands instantly traveled to her stomach, her father glaring and breathing heavily, a vein appearing. "I am pregnant.... and I will get married from Skye Legendre." she repeated, her voice a little higher than before yet no more than a whisper. Her father moved forward, and since Aphrodite had the fear and thought of being slapped by him, again, she receded back with clear improwessness, but he merely kept the glaring competition with her, though clenching his fists as if the aftermath of what Aphrodite was fearing would come true any minute now. "You are no more than an apparition to me now. You are no more a Guinevere! Out! OUT of this house immediately and forever! Never do return!" he fervently bellowed yet again, and Aphrodite, with slight sorrow though more delight, exited the house her childhoodness once lingered in. She exited her own house because of a vampire. She exited her own house because of the one person she loved; and she could really care less. She knew an end of a beginning had just occured, yet, the beginning of an after life was much of a relieving thought for the young human.
{ WRITE BACK YOUR WRONGS
Eradicating any thoughts of her former family, the newly married Aphrodite Legendre was free at last. Standing by her husband's side, Dracula [Skye] legendre, they both glanced at their born baby, with a smile lingering upon their faces. The vampire merely glanced at his wife, and she knew what was to come. "Do not do it for me..." "I am not" she repeated, and then continued "I am doing it for us..." with a whisper, she had uttered the words his fears were confirming. "Immortality will sent your hurtful feelings towards the surface" Dracula commented, but his wife merely shook her head. "I left my family for us, didn't I? We both had an amazingly beautiful daughter, and my will for her is to grow up in a community without confusion, and if I remain a human, confusion will occur about her identity. She needs to know. I must do it for her. Please, Skye..." she whispered, using the name Dracula had used in their first meeting. A vampire's name could never be uttered freely in a Muggle World, and that is where Dracula had found Aphrodite, the young pureblooded witch who was helping lost children. She was kind, and unlike a Guinevere, and a smile had formed upon Dracula's lips at that thought. She seemed to love calling him "Skye," as if living up the memory of their first meeting. Dracula Legendre was especially infamous towards Muggles, and Skye was the name he used when he was having a "talk" with a Muggle, only to recieve his next meal. Aphrodite was different... and he knew it. She didn't run away when he told her her true identity, and she accepted people for who they really are, and Dracula hoped fully that his daughter, Lysistrata Legendre, will grow up to be like her mother.
His trail of thoughts traveled back to the present, and to Aphrodite's pleading eyes in which he couldn't refuse. Nodding his head, they both exited towards the court yard, he looking at her questioningly. "Are you sure?" he stated one last time, and she nodded fervently. Dracula had married a pureblooded witch whilst he was a pureblooded vampire, meaning that his daughter will become a part witch, and a part vampire, but Aphrodite's wish was for her to turn into a vampire, and be bitten by her companion. That night, Aphrodite had turned into a vampire. That night, there no longer was a family of mixed genes, yet a vampire family that included a half-breeded creature, Lie Legendre.
{ NO MATTER WHAT
The Legendre family was known throughout both the Muggle World and the Wizarding World. Whilst in the Muggle, they were a Myth, the Wizards knew them to be real. Dracula Legendre would be the descendant of the first pureblooded family that had once been there: Dracula The First. Nearly every single person had heard of Dracula... the vampire whom is known to be evil, yet, is his descendants as such? Not in the least, for even though Wizards are strict about their pureblooded status, vampires aren't, for they could care less if they marry a hag, only if you truly fall in love with them and, no matter what, will never hurt your companion. Vampires, unlike people think, have feelings of their own, and they would never harm their beloved ones. In fact, many vampires will never harm anyone except for their needs: Blood. But of course, there's always a bad apple in a tree, forcing some vampires to turn out rotten. Dracula Legendre had never been, or ever will be, such a vampire, even if he was a direct descendant of Dracula the First. He was afraid that his daughter would be criticized a lot, due to the fact that she will attend a Magical School, being someone who is a half witch after all, as Dracula took extreme care of his beloved daughter. She seemed to grow up more like her father, emotions unable to be hidden, mainly hurt.
{ I DON'T WANT TO RUN AWAY
Lie had grown up in a community in which the weak will be cut off, whilst the strong will live. An agitation had arised throughout the people as the Legendre family grew stronger, not only in money, physical and emotional strength, but also in social status. Due to their powerful state, society had accepted them for only that, but still, many people would warn their children from associating with people like Lie Legendre and her family, but Lie could care less. When Lie was young, she was ignored by many, but had only one true friend. An imaginary one. Not quite, for he was an apparition in which only she could see, seeing as he had a purpose in life and that purpose was to bring a smile to Lie Legendre's face. No one believes that there is someone out there who's looking out for them, but Lie believed truly as such, and he came upon her, brought from Heavens only to do his purpose and be taken away once again. That person was one to commit many crimes against humanity, and was classified as a "bad apple upon human," and that is why he was returned to Earth in order to do something good as to see if Heaven's gates would open for him. His name was unknown to Lie, and as such she called him "Apparition". Simple and plain. Many people thought that the hallucinations this girl was having was quite dangerous, and as such, she had no friend but him. Lie's only mistake was growing too close with an apparition, getting too close to someone she knew will eventually leave, but she only thought of the present instead of the future. But one day, his purpose was fulfilled, and he left. Just as simply as he arrived, after seven years of remaining with Lie ever since her being four years old, he went away. . .
{ POETIC TRAGEDY
Lie was usually seen talking to herself quite a lot, believing more than anything that he was there, watching over her, as he was the only friend she contained. But he left... and she never wanted to think as such. The young vampire remained secluded, no matter how many times her parents would convince her about meeting other people or such. Eleven years of age yet Lie had more of depression in her than any other fourty years old lonely man. Her obsession of apparitions and ghosts or whatnot, especially the afterlife, had left her at home, never going to school at that age and convincing her father that she wanted to be home-schooled. Her father, not wanting to refuse any demand of his beloved daughter, agreed, yet was not convinced inwardly at all. Lie read many, many [/b] books about various topics, along with being home-schooled, and as such, became more knowledged than many children her age. But being home-schooled never lasted, especially when she turned nineteen. { THIS IS HOW I DISAPPEARVampire's life span is... immortality, and that is why most vampires remain in one shape when they turn a certain age. Usually, it varies, but to most vampires, including Lie, they stop changing rapidly at eighteen, and remain in that shape for the rest of their lives. Of course, there is potions, but that doesn't necessarily work and it is only temporarily. Lie stopped and remained in the shape during her eighteenth birthday, and her father had tried to convince her to attend school the next year. Nineteen came arriving quickly, and her father, caring for her, immediately sent her to Hogwarts, a sixth year, for when she turned nineteen, it was nearly as much as turning sixteen for many others. During her sixth year, Lie was more distant to anyone than she was at home, and whenever anyone would come and talk to her, she would merely start a polite and civilized conversation, not wanting any walls to crumble and for the girl behind the veil to be revealed. Not many people know that being a vampire hurts... badly. Personality Description: (Go into detail, if possible){ I'M SIX FEET FROM THE EDGEAs seasons changse, as time passes by, people develop from all the acts they have had, but what about creatures, do they remain cold blooded? Vampires are known to be one of the few creatures that could very much harm everyone, but is that correct? No one knows for sure, but Lie Legendre had managed to hurt many emotionally, just to rid herself from her own hurt. Though she knows perfectly that that is wrong, she didn't ever mean to harm anyone, in fact, she never meant to act like a havoc, but only wanted to develop dexterity for being able to hide her own emotions. Many miracles would past before anyone would ever see a smile lightening the features of the part vampire, and though vampires are known to be cold all through the times, what could a part vampire be known as. Her emotions are mixed and they contrast each other: Human and vampire, so as to what result did that lead to? Nothing but a complete disaster that had allowed Lie to reach a bad dead end, a dead end where there could possibly be no exit. That's how her emotions fold against each other. That's how Lie came about to never smile. That's how, most importantly, Lie had never known the feeling of love from anyone besides her parents. Lie is a very complicated girl to describe, even when you do know her fully, for her personality is more of a... Bipolar; changing quite a lot in a matter of time. Even though many have heard that Vampires have no feelings, and even though that statement is partially true for Lie, she has personal experience that it might not be fully true, for Lie has feelings of hatred, hurt, agony, rage, and even love. Many of her feelings contradict each other only to let her appear as a cold-hearted person with not a single emotion running through her, but she, herself, knows that only she wouldn't be like this... a statue, a statue with no feelings. { POETIC TRAGEDYConfusion. Angst. Happiness. Drama. Romance. All these have been experienced by nearly all teenagers in the world, but has everyone ever complained about not having such emotions that could turn out as a calamity by the end? Apparently, people will do anything to rid their inner selves from such unwanted feelings that invade them so easily: like fragile creatures with no other help than their own selves, but too weak to try anything. That is probably what the problem is: they are human. Human cannot, in any way, control their emotions and are too weak to even try to remove them from their own self-conscience. But then again, creatures below them are much more vulnerable and anemic to stand up to such a strong enemy like: emotions. If there might be a cure against them, then there might be just a chance of being firm when in meeting with such enemies. The annals had never reported anything as such, but merely stating that they demoralized confidence in all, whether a human or a vampire. Replenished by nothing more than complete disasters, vampires had been known to contain such strong, firm emotions that could never shatter to pieces in a matter of seconds. That isn't true, of course. One Vampire, also, had been known to have such emotions yet her human sides were somewhat able to maintain them on an acceptable level: Lie had never been one to allow her self to break down in front of any crowd, though her control over her human side is usually diminsihing slowly in process. No one, to be reported, had ever seen this young vampire shed a tear, not even when a child, and though many would think the circumstances state that she was born to be a cold hearted murderer, that isn't true. { CROSS YOUR MEMORYEver since the young vampire had breathed her first fresh air, she was seen not crying, but what is the secret? There isn't any, really, it must have been her realization of entering a new world filled with hate, agony, and anger, so any result of weakness might just be carried out to harm her more in this world. Of course, as a child, it was probably her mother's arms that kept her safe and wanted her to know that the result of crying is nothing but shame, and emotions are carried out differently. Though she was told not to be vulnerable, Lie was never belligerent enough to stop the weak facade of emotions to get through to her and invade her innocent mind. As a young child, she knew nothing in this world but the cradle she slept in and the warm, refreshing scent of her mother; everything her mother told her was seriousness mingled with lullabies, forcing her to act mature ever since her age. Maturity - that's a word our young vampire might recognize fully, for at the mere young age of five, she had never been seen smiling, giggling, or anything of that sort had been uttered from her lips. Children scattered away from her, and she was oblivious as to what the meaning of fun till you reach an adult phase meant. Teenagers, young children, and even some old people around her still lingered in the age of immaturity, playing and having the time of their lives, whilst Lie was forced to watch them from a fence, her thoughts hollow as to what she should do; as to what this is right; as to what fun meant at all. Especially when she grew up, Lie will be found secluded, doing something that most adults haven't achieved, and never having fun. Many times, she pretended for others that she did have fun, but what was the outcome. . .? { KEEPIN' IT ALIVELie loves complications, as she loves formality and elegance, for that girl speaks only in code, well, most of the time that is. Even if formality and elegance practically rule her life, she does not need to apply that to others, for she hates fake, un-genuine people, and what Lie is: is a completely genuine person, whether that lies in trust, or loyalty, or telling the truth, or even if it lies in her own personality. Of course, her name states otherwise, for her name is "Lie," well, her nickname, but she knows that that name does not fit for such a genuine, honest girl like herself. Of course, if she is genuine, it doesn't normally mean that she is friendly, not for most of the time. Mainly, the only people that she treats well are... no one, but she doesn't treat anyone else bad, she just doesn't treat them well either. Surely, she is one to love those close to her, and those who love her back, but Lie couldn't just be friendly like that, for you've got to earn her trust, her friendliness, and her love... much of a tough girl. Her own parents had gained that, apparently, but Lie only shows it to them, and only them, unless her close friends are completely in her good black book. { SECRETLY SHE SNEERSShe's much of a genie in a bottle, you've got to treat her the right way in order to get what you want fully, and with no errors. All her life, she had been treated like an equal, even if her Vampireness was known to some people, but only because of her father. She could really care less, and that is why she wouldn't accept people as friends that easily. She really is a hard person to penetrate into, and you would not imagine how tiring that is. Many had tried, but they all failed. It's only a matter of time where she does have those moments in which she appears to act nicely to others, but only because it might be her father's guests, or her own as well, for Lie is a very polite person, whether it was to someone she respects, or someone she utterly hates. She treats her enemies as an equal, and treats her friends as the best, whilst she treats all as politely as she could. But of course, these aren't the only flaws that tug along her personality, for Lie is also a person very blood-thirsty for her own good. Sure, she does treat everyone politely, but needing blood to survive is mentioned as a need, meaning that she couldn't live without, that is how she would want things to arrive to her, as a need. Lie isn't a very needy person, nor is she arrogant, and even if she is considered very rich and very dangerous as a Vampire, she doesn't go along and brag about it everywhere, nor does she deny it anyways. { A LONG TRIP TO ROMELie had a generous amount of aquaintances; quite a lot that they became uncountable for anyone. As said before, she never puts on a smile, but she does put on a fake one. A plastic barbie one that nearly all seemed to believe, whilst others ignored. A fake one that it became too agonizing for Lie herself in order for her to be able to destory it and replace it with a genuine smile. Her personality, as well, is as fake as that smile that she plasters upon her lips. Lie is one to adore adventures as much as her dearest hobby in the world, and discovering had become a huge part of her identity, but adventures doesn't always necessarily lead to a good outcome. Curiosity, for one, is a bad side of her personality that Lie needs to rid herself from, and that may become a huge flaw in the future. Her curiosity had been aroused quite a lot, that she was nearly being caught several times, but in the last minute, she managed to escape the calamity she had purposed when lifting her curiosity upwards. As a part vampire, her intelligence is expected to be rather very high, but surprisingly enough, even with her human side, she was rather dominant in that area, causing her to appear more witty than most full vampires are. How can anyone exist without the least bit of wit in them? Intelligence, of course, had been a major tug on her personality that practically made her a semi-genius. Being quite excellent in studying, she was called many names, but that never affected her, for studying was her deep passion along with adventuring and discovering. If she had to choose, then most definitely adventures come first. Bravery is one thing that defines her badly, knowing perfectly well that the confidence she had mustered up in years will never fade in mere moments nor will it ever possibly fade away. { WHEN MY EYESIGHT IS GOING BADOf course, she might be cold, or seems to be at least, but she doesn't not have feelings, a Vampire would never hide anything, mainly because they have nothing to hide but themselves. She hated the fact that whoever she loves, might penetrate very easily to her, and that is why she is a very careful person. Lie never thinks much of herself, but she doesn't think low of herself either. She loves taking matters into her mind and equalizing them, and had been quite a help over the years. Lie rarely ever has any arguments, but when she does, it could be polite, but if it was with a beloved person, then it would be one of the worst. When Lie closes a door, the window in her life opens... that's her theory of life, and you could very much say that she is optimistic. Lie was never a shy person, and even if she doesn't fully talk to people, she isn't known, or even considered, as a shy girl; a girl who never blushes. . . Lie could be a very cunning person to her parents, or anyone for that matter, but mostly her parents. Sure, she doesn't have many wants or needs, but whenever she badly wants something, she would use her cunning skills, but her parents needn't those, for they love her quite a lot, and would almost bring anything for her, for her advantage that is. They sure do know of her cunning abilities, and they would love their daughter even if she was the worst of people, of which she isn't classified as at all. . . { BOOKS ARE REVEALEDRarely everyone knows the real person behind the veil, as it is with so many people. Blinded by the lightness of what people think they know, no one ever attempts to find out anything about their true identity. Usually, Lie appears as a clement person in which attracts people to the semi-rebellious vampire that contains another side of her. Being a rebel from inside, Lie forced another part of her personality when appearing before her Professor's eyes or anyone being a respectful adult for that matter. Different from the two sides, she still knows that not any one of them is genuine, but perhaps the fact that she contains hope will change any scar permitted within her. [/size][/blockquote]

Character Name:
Lysistrata Gabriella Legendre
Character Age:
nineteen, though a sixth year
Wand:
9 and 1/2 inches, yew tree, chimaera scale
Pet (if any):
snake ;; lithium
Physical Description:
{ COME BACK DOWN TO EARTH
With a genuine appearance that Lie possesses unwillingly, it is quite rare that she never stands out. It seems that that is a flaw that comes along with such a demeanor, and Lie is bothered by that fact. Rarely anything is ever seen as "beautiful," not even whatever is usually classified into that category, and with all the unwanted demeanors that had appeared lately, people should find flaws in everyone. However, is a vampire being placed into such a classification unwillingly? They are known for being fair and "free from flaws" that tugs in their appearance, but is that as true as it sounds? Apparently, Lie Legendre isn't at all fond of herself, as many others would think. Being raised in a world of flawfulness and bad traits flourishing upon every one, Lie had kept that thought fixed, thinking that perhaps, all creatures are as bad as they are classified, perhaps even worse, even the rose. As much as the rose is intriguing, much like the part vampire Miss Legendre, it is dangerous and the complete opposite when seen nearby. Normal might be an underestimation to describe the part vampire, although she looks much like it during the first impression. Lie is far from being normal in her physical demeanor, as she very much states that with her parents's sides being rushed towards the young girl.
{ MAKING SOMETHING OUT OF NOTHING
Though many creatures live up to the more dominant features of their ascendants, Lie brought another case. Having recieved the features of both her parent's sidse, it still isn't quite visible that she might as well be something else rather than a human. Just as pale as winter; just as cold as snow; just as still as ice. Her complexion appears fully, showing the young girl behind a veil, revealing the ugly beauty that many of the world had comprehended. Lie had never gained any stereotypical aspect of any of her family sides, though many would state she looks more of a fallen angel at bait. Having conveyed partially vampiric features, anyone could conclude the fact that the paleness of her skin, yet the glowing feature within it, is what had brought suspiscions. Containing a visible grace in her appearance, her limbs are always fixed in a manner that indicated a Ukrainian Royalty. Though with all the events and probabilities that all had indicated towards the vampire, her height is always standing in a superiority manner that would be identified gracefully that she is anything but a slump person. Standing fully at a height of 5' 4", Lie was normally shorter than many other girls her age, and much shorter around boys that's for sure. The figure of the young vampire was most definitely evidence for the feminie side this girl possesses, and in every act, as it seems, elegance must be emitted. Nearly as subtle as an artist working on a new design, and nearly as much as any elegant, Royalty out there, if not more. Though the teasing increased about her height, Lie had surely found a way to invisiblize the shortness of her feminie figure. . .
{ SELFISH BY NATURE
Heels! Has man ever created a more amazing, intriguing invention such as heels? An attire with an elusive demeanor, Lie had managed to be one of the few who were able to use eloquent clothes that clearly speak of her unnatural personality. Though with a semi-emaciated figure, her attire emanate differently. Wearing high heels was never something farcical for Lie, seeing as those are her best friends in life, never heading off anywhere without them. After years of living with them, one might get used to them easily. Excluding the fact that she wears high heels every day, Lie also was used to clothes that show her slightly medieval vampiric side more. Usually, the young, supposedly strange girl, is found wearing a Roman attire: a white, short dress with gold chains throughout the dress. Artistically portraying the Roman figure, Lie cannot be seen but a weird person who is obssessed with Renaissance clothes and old gowns, but is it a mistake to be formal? Her family had always increased the strictness about formality, but she needn't, for Lie was born formal, and elegance will always be found throughout her as the formality lingers to extremity.
{ IT'S STANDING ROUND AND ROUND
The paleness in her skin had been made to match the dark streaks of the vampire. Having emitted her father's features this time, it was surprisingly enough that it matched along the semi-white glowing features she contained. Starting with graceful curls, it ends in bouncy ones, but thanks to magic, many hair do's could appear with just a flick and a swish of her wand, not that she needs any. At times, the young black haired girl appears to contain darker, night black hair whenever she seems gloomy, but that is probably a figurative of imagination of others. One thing that changes within her for sure is those bright eyes of hers. Having inherited them from dear mother, it sure contains some human magic within them. Perhaps that is why her eyes are one of the most intriguing demeanors that the vampire contains. They appear to bright, along with a small twinkle that rests within them, under gracegully arched dark eyebrows, and semi-perfectly winged ornamental eyelashes. Within them lies the bright color of sapphire, shaped with an even brighter color of green that holds mysterious facts. In an almond shape, it seems as if the green iris changes towards a dark, emerald green color as her mood osciliates, having some normal magic that allows her to do as such. Though that is clearly visible, no one has ever noticed that, since Lie is quite amazing in hiding feelings, having done that for so long. That, surely, is another imaginative way, but who knows what human magic everyone possesses? Eyes, are said to be one of the mesmerizing features many possess, and the truth is completely genuine within anyone's eyes, especially Lie.
{ I CAN FEEL YOU PULL ME DOWN
To conclude, it is the most obvious thing that Lie possesses a mysterious, fallen angel demeanor that is classified as an "ugly beauty" by society. Though not quite an intriguing title to place in the vampire's mind, she doesn't think much of her appearance, mainly because the teasings about it had appeared to increase and became suddenly so less annoying. Names such as "different" and "weirdo" have been heard, but could such a supposedly simple appearance hold so much secrets? Apparently, it does, but as long as Lie is a semi-clone of her mother, it always will. . .
Strengths:
● her family ● being polite and civilized ● being aquainted easily ● Potions ● Charms&&Curses
Weaknesses:
● Transfiguration ● hiding her emotions fully ● concentrating on one thing at a time
If given the opportunity - would you take part in a Quidditch team, a Book Club, a Potions group or an Afternoon Tea party?
Though Lie is intrigued to join both a Quidditch team and a Potions group, she would choose Quidditch, since being in a Potions group could easily be managed on her own without any other.
If you found a wandering Kneazle, what would you do?
Lie would probably find a sheltered, safe home for that Kneazle if it had no owners.
What House would you like to be placed in (This is to be taken into consideration, though the Hat will ultimately make the final decision)?
S l y t h e r i n
Why would you like to be in this student group and not the others?
Lie is one sly person, and that is why Slytherin would be her house, not to mention the fact that the darkness lingering upon that place suits her perfectly.
Please give us an example RP:

1: An extremely well written and well thought out reason as to why your character should be considered to be this creature.
Lie's family had all been Vampires, and I think perfectly well that I could RP her using a Vampire status. Her personality includes every bit of what a Vampire is, and she probably will never exist if she isn't one. Surely, Lie would never harm anyone unless her need of food increases, yet, she would never do as such savagely, for even though a Vampire, that doesn't include that she is a harmful one. Her family had all been as such, or at least, most of them, and Lie would most definitely turn out to be a respectable, yet genuine, Vampire.
2: Full history/background including; How did you become this creature? (Or were you born that way?) How long have you been this sort of creature? How has this effected your life?
[those three will be included in the history below. ^^]
--------
Do you promise not to bite and or maim any other players without their permission in a thread? Yes, of course.
What are your characters feelings about being this creature? Lie doesn't really object being a Vampire, though that doesn't mean that, deep down inside of her, she wishes if she was a normal person someday. Everytime Lie glances at those... humans, she thinks of herself as a beast, and society treating her as one had proved as such.
Other: (Including certain instances where it has effected your life, relationships, parents thoughts...) Be specific/detailed.
Also below in history ^^
3: Why should you be chosen to be this creature, over other applicants. Because I've been a Vampire in many, many sites, and I think that I could Role Play as one perfectly well. In many sites, such as Wikipedia, and from movies as well, I learned a lot of information about Vampires, and as such, this will be precise, or nearly precise, to that inofmration. All in all, I think I could portray a Vampire's personality, etc... very well.
4: Example RP pertaining to your character and him/her being this creature. (It's good to write more than just a paragraph.)
[using her powers, or just like the one below? ^^]
(i included this post here as to clearify that Lie is a vampire ^^) _______ [/blockquote]

The usual sensations of wanting to exit her tight, dark dorm room filled Lie's whole body. She only merely hated the fact staying in this dorm room, and including the fact that she has to stay with a couple other girls. The Headmaster probably thought it was better for the young vampire to remain in a room with the least amount of occupants (especially after Lie insisted strongly on that matter), and so came about this room which contained only two other Slytherin girls. What she hated was the Headmaster knowing, for Lie never trusted those of high superiority, even if her parents seem as such, but her parents were a different stories, and so were schools. The Headmasters could break a secret in a matter of moments, but her father had had an honor of keeping secrets and would never do anything along the lines of exposing them, and so was Lie. She hated Headmasters, but liked Professors. It seemed as such a weird combination, but wasn't it already known that Lie was weird... and different. Not that she hated it, but it felt as if she was the only one there, as if there was a huge bubble separating her form other people, a huge bubble in which contained a dark cloud above her. She didn't hate that fact - quite the contrary. It seemed like she did like being different, whether it was in her blood type, or in personality, since everyone seemed very distant. Everyone hated suppressing their emotions, but it was their only choice, even Lie hated that, but she would never have liked people knowing her every move - her every single emotion. It felt very... frightening. Thoughts of her boggart filled her head: she could remember the boggart turning into herself... a crying Lie. She flinched at that mere thought, because Lie only hated crying, all vampires hated showing any emotions. They are already known as cold creatures, but it was the complete opposite, but since people already contained corrupted thoughts about them, they seemed to have kept that reputation. Sure, they have no "heart," but it doesn't mean that they would like to kill humans in order to get what they needed, well, excluding some very few Vampires.
Lie absently started slipping the cover above herself, whilst sitting straight up on her bed. She hadn't been intending on sleeping, since she rarely ever did that act, but she could very much state that she wanted to think. Being alone in this cold, dark room seemed to be one of the very few options, seeing as many other people visited so many places past curfew. Rarely anyone is inside; they all wanted to break the rules, attempt to be cool in their own definition. Lie tried her best not to roll her eyes at that thought, as she stood up, brushing her clothes off. As usual, she had a cloak covering her dress - and yes, Lie was wearing a dress in school for no occasion. It was merely a habit to wear such corseted dresses, since she had done that ever since birth, taught by her parents to be formal. Lie saw no use in changing her habit whilst in Hogwarts, and so, remained in a position in which to wear formal dresses all the time (not necessarily evening gowns or such, merely casual), except, of course, when the morning arrives and she should wear uniforms, of which she hated completely. The uniform seemed too... school-ish, to be described fully. Lie loved studying, but she hated zoning off in class because of the many boring voices around, since then, she might day dream and find herself abruptly awaken by a Professor. It wasn't fun, but it surely did interrupt class, even if it was accidentally. Detention was something very rare for Lie, and when she does have detention, it never was as fun as everyone stated, especially when she sits alone in class and stares into space. If she was doing something more interesting during detention, like cleaning the trophies (she always wanted to do some action rather than sit still for hours), or being taken to the Forbidden Forest. She never minded that place, mainly because it seemed to imitate the area around her house, which also consisted of many, thick trees that formed forests along the edges. It was almost impossible for anyone to enter her house, as her parents made sure of that fully, placing spells, but they never were afraid, they were, after all, vampires. Besides, her father would remove all spells when they were having formal occasions, balls or anything along those lines.
She allowed the hood of the cloak to cover her head, forcing her to appear more like Little Red Riding Hood, except with a dark, black cloak. This time, she rolled her eyes seriously at that thought. She was somewhat a fan of nursery rhymes, but folktales like Little Red Riding Hood was merely too childish for her now. Her hair fell gracefully against her pale features, and even if her cloak was covering her head, it failed to cover the strands of dark hair falling. Walking towards the wooden door of the empty room, she opened it slowly, the familiar creaking sound of wood being opened hit her ears, as it seemed to get less shriekier by the day. As she exited the room, she barely made any noise. She wasn't tip-toeing around or anything, but it merely was a habit she was used to, walking unnoticed and quietly. It was clearly past curfew, seeing as the common room was empty. Some were sleeping, and others were sneaking around in the middle of the night. It was only too typical that it became too boring for her, but there was one place that most definitely would never be too boring, well, Lie could think of three places, but she decided to visit only one place. Her feet clicked softly against the cold stoned floor, as the only sound heard now was her deep intakes of breaths and the unnerving silence. Her piercing green eyes searched the dungeons as she climbed out of the Slytherin Common Room and into those dark hallways, but only to be greeted by silence. Lie started to make her way towards the exit of Hogwarts, but many stairs had lingered upon the place that many people, especially first years, would naturally get lost, but Lie would never have thought that would happen to her seeing as Vampire instincts are rather too strong. People stated Vampires were bats - animals - but they never did deny that fact now, did they. As the night folded its dark wings upon Lie, she finally reached the exit, her feet walking away from the stoned hallways of Hogwarts. Lie was instantly greeted by the refreshing breath in which she loved to take in every single time. She always almost smiles as greeted by such, but she shrugged that thought off. Her instincts dragged her once again towards the darkness of the forest, in which was forbidden yet not forbidden for Lie. How could such a thing be forbidden, yet everything in it is not forbidden? That's how life probably works. Deeper and deeper her legs carried her, but it wasn't because she was lost, it was only because of the fact that there was a certain tree she wanted to go towards. Finally, the young Half-Vampire reached the tree she planned on visiting. It was one of the very few places that allowed her to think, probably because she felt a deep connection to it since it was the same wood as her wand. Seating herself under it, she rested her head upon the hard wood of the Yew Tree... it was such a beautiful tree, yet it was dark in many ways, seeing as Yew trees are symbolic of death and resurrection, but Lie really did like this tree. She could feel another wind blowing against her pale cheeks, and the sound of silence also filled the place, making her body relax abruptly; her emerald green eyes remained fixed upon the crescent shining along the sky.

rest in peace girl, your death is such a shame. the paper said a bullet got in your way.
Finally not shifting, Lie nodded her head, glancing back at the other first years talking excitedly. They seemed quite cheerful about starting Hogwarts, about the new adventures they are going to conquer, whilst an adventure to them is different than those of Lie's. An adventure of hers will be conquering her own... emotions, shall we say. Sighing inwardly, Lie turned to face the Professor once again, forcing another thankful nod to be given away, before she turned on her heel and stated. "If you excuse me, Professor, I must finish unpacking." though that statement was extremely unnecessary, but Lie wasn't exactly one to exit without a word or excitement like the other first years who were chanting happily. Rolling her eyes, Lie could never remember the last time she acted so childish. In fact, she couldn't remember if there was a moment in which she acted as such.
The coldness in the dungeons never seemed to affect her in the least bit, and the fire cackling nearby helped quite a lot, but Lie never usually felt the coldness around her. Receding towards the stairs, she was met by two holes in which led to either the Boys' dormitories or the girls' ones. Obviously, the one Lie had entered was the girls' dormitories, since the other boy occupants seemed to climb towards the other side. Running a pale hand through her black hair in order to clearify her mind, she found the sixth years' dorm rooms, and entered with one swift motion into the abandoned room. Seating herself towards the farthest bed, Lie sheltered herself from any other girl who will enter the room by closing her curtains.
Lying on her bed, Lie glanced up at the cieling, closing her eyes briefly. In a while, Lie would retire towards the common room, when the commotion becomes less and less with time. A book lingered in Lie's arms as she extracted it from her trunk, and Lie started absent-mindely reading it. A book about Medieval Times in the Muggle World, where a witch was considered to be someone below them... much like Vampires are right now. A sigh escaped her lips, as she continued reading, waiting for the right moment to exit.
but i smell foul play; possible poisoning. i had to bring you in for questioning.

took a shot to the chin. looks like you just can't win
Lie bit her lips slightly and followed the other first years. She, this being her first year in Hogwarts, had to follow them towards the common room, being quite oblivious as to where its location lingers. She remembered her mother merely shrugging when Lie asked her about the location of the Slytherin common room, only stating that Lie should stop being independent to the extremity. Nearly scoffing at that thought, Lie glanced grudgingly at those tiny creatures in front of her, and being tall, she was quite hard not to spot. Well... at least she didn't look like those tiny creatures, or else, how could she live with such shortness. Sighing, the young vampire hid behind them, or attempted to at least, as they were led to the Slytherin common room by their Head of House. During the feast, Lie was distracted by the cieling, and remained staring at it, very oblivious to her surroundings. Besides, no one attempted to talk to her, and Lie thanked that inwardly, for she didn't need anyone asking questions about her identity. Removing a strand of dark hair behind her ear, she allowed her orbs to remain fixed on the dark dungeons, absorbing the semi familiar air of slight darkness around her, partially thankful that she was somewhat hid in the shadows.
Just one more year, she kept repeating to herself reassuringly... just one more year and Lie could do whatever her heart desires. She didn't even know why she was forced to enter Hogwarts. A havoc was to occur any moment now, her instincts informed her as such. Lie wasn't one to walk in the lines, but Hogwarts might just change her... slightly. Eradicating such thoughts away from her mind, she receded a little bit when the destination towards the common room appeared in front of them. The place was rather anything but hideous, much like home... she reminded herself. Meandering for a while with her gaze, she placed it on the path in front of her, and entered semi gracefully. Brushing her garb slightly, her pale hands remained fixed on either side of her, as the herald of the excitement in the room told her that this day will be an intriguing one... or at least, that's what Lie hoped for it not to be the outcome. She will never forgive herself if she had fun in any way. Closing her eyes in a meditation type, she quickly fluttered them open, only to glance around the common room. It wasn't that bad... well, that was an underestimation.
Her line of gaze now remained fixed on the Head of House as he spoke, Lie memorizing the features to its full extremes. The last thing she wanted in Hogwarts was to mess with the wrong sort of people and result in her expulsion... or maybe that's what her plan was. A sigh escaped her lips, a barely audible one, as she shifted a little. She had no idea how will she cope in this place... how will her room mates be, and how is the courses and daily life in Hogwarts be like. Her questions exceeded to deep extremes, but she bit her lips, afraid that she might give the impression of an idiotic first year... well, her figure surely didn't give as such. The sixth year watched the other occupants of the room, from first years to seventh, and envied them for their non caring manner. She was different, she knew that, but not in a way that indicated: hey, look at me. but in a rather way that stated: I hate all. Rolling her eyes at that mere thought, she slowly and carefully approached the Head of House, being rather cautious as to not attract any glances. No one could blame Lie for hating unnecessary attention. "Professor Novim. . .?" she began, with a polite tone in which she used a lot back at home "I have heard that boggarts linger around here, is that statement true?" after her supposedly-non harming, innocent question, she couldn't help but shift a little bit. Her question was her best way to be indirect. Her boggart was one to identify what Lie really is: a vampire, and if anyone ever knew Lie's boggart... well, being kicked out of Hogwarts will be the least of it. That is why she was cautious in being indirect when asking questions, and she bit her lips slightly. Mental Note: rid yourself from that habit.
in this do or die situation. and it's harder than it seems
