Name: Apollo Marquis

Birthday: July 28th

Hometown: Dublin, Ireland

Bloodline:
Halfblood

Magical Strength (pick one):
Charms

Magical Weakness (pick one):
Divination

Year (pick two): 4th (I had her as a second year, term before last), 5th

Biography: When Apollo was born she wasn't born alone. She was born with an unbreakable bond to another, her sister Artemis. Her family was a different kind of wizarding brood, having  ties to both the wizarding world and muggle one. Her father even took part in muggle government in their city at times. Gaining wealth in both worlds was not an easy task though, so sadly her father was gone over half the time. Travelling to Britain to meet with different wizarding politicians, etc.

Being a twin certainly had its upsides. Wherever Artemis failed, Apollo excelled. Wherever Apollo failed, Artemis excelled. Two peas in a pod. Their mother has tried on multiple occasions to bring them up to be ladies, but the sense of adventure that overtakes them both is certainly frowned upon. Artemis would rather trade in her dress for a pair of jeans any day.

After a train ride and a turbulent boat trip across the lake, Apollo found herself standing in line with the other first years, eagerly awaiting the sorting. When she tugged the hat over her head, she was quickly declared a Gryffindor and couldn’t have been more happy about the house --The house where the brave dwelled and adventure was sure to greet her.

And greet her it did. Three years flew by in a flash of misadventure, prank wars and endless friends. True to her name, Polly brought sunshine everywhere she went. Apollo is sunshine personified. She has a knack for pranks and loves to have fun. Adrenaline is her medicine. Her twin is her other half though and she wouldn’t be the same person without her by her side.

Now that she’s getting older, she’s starting to find her own path, seperate from her friends and family, though they will always be a large part of who she is. Only time will tell where she’ll end up and what she’ll do with her heavy power of the sun.

Option I:

The dungeons. A place eleven-year-old Evangeline had not yet travelled since her arrival at Hogwarts.

A place she really was just fine with not knowing; but it was too late. The dare had been accepted, even if it had been done in fear of being kicked out of Gryffindor, like the older girls had said she would because Gryffindors were supposed to be brave.

The air changed instantly when she hit the main corridor of the dungeons. The dampness was almost too much for her and she instinctively took a deep breath to avoid the sensation of being suffocated. There was also a sour burning smell which Evangeline assumed was from many, many Potions lessons.

Further and further she walked, her steps so slow and gentle they made no noise against the stone walls and floor. The feeling that she wasn't alone crept up her spine and raised the tiny hair on the back of her neck. Shivering, Evangeline wrapped her arms around herself. Suddenly, she missed the warmth and comfort of the Gryffindor common room. The fire was always going and it made her feel at ease.

Why had she let those girls talk her into this? She was only eleven, she didn't have to be brave. Surely the Headmistress would not kick her out of Hogwarts for not being brave.

If only she had these thoughts while being dared to search for the ghost of one Emma Birch, whom supposedly haunted the dungeons. It was not, Evangeline had learned, the place where the sixteen-year-old girl's life had ended but as she had been from the house with a snake as its mascot, it was the place her spirit had returned to. That common room was down here somewhere, she'd been told.

Something - the small blonde girl wasn't quite sure what - but something made her stop in her tracks suddenly. There was a low, dull thumping noise. Or maybe that was her heart beating so loudly she thought it was coming from outside her body.

"H-h-hello?" Her voice was barely above a whisper.

Remembering that she was supposed to be brave, Evangeline tried again.

"Hello! Is Emma Birch here?"

The sound of her own words bouncing back at her off the walls made her jump.

Apollo loved exploring, and the dungeons were a place she hadn't ventured before. They were dark, cold, and mysterious… At least two of those things were things she didn't have too much care for.

When she heard a voice though she quickly darted behind into a corner. She didn't know why that was her first reaction, but she would rather have the upper hand if it was necessary. She didn't like when other people had the advantage, but in reality who did like that? No one she had ever encountered.

She moved against the wall, hoping she wasn't able to be seen. When the girl came into view though she couldn't help but recognize the little Gryffindor, but she also couldn't resist the scare.

When she got close enough she jumped out of the shadows. “Boo!” She yelled as she landed in front of the girl.

Dark brown hair with dark brown eyes. Sunkissed skin that radiates a glow of youth. She walks with her head up and with confidence. She is on the lean side when it comes to her stature.

Option 2:

That rat of his was in for it now.

The gray little rascal had disappeared from his clutches at breakfast. Again.

Before Hugh even knew what was happening, Merlin had shot across the floor, somehow managing to avoid all the feet walking across the hall and had escaped through the open doors.

Which meant that Hugh was now stomping through rows of flowers and other various flora, searching for the small creature. It was like the rat knew Hugh was allergic to most flowers. Merlin always chose to run to the gardens whenever he got away from Hugh. It was as if the rat did not want to have him for an owner.

Hugh had named his pet Merlin because he had hoped the powerful name would give the rat more incentive to be more than a rat. Not that he expected Merlin to change into a wizard or anything, but rats were just so...useless, for the most part. With a name like Merlin, Hugh thought it might give the rat purpose.

The only purpose Merlin seemed to have was getting away from Hugh as often as possible.

As the fifth year trudged into the second row of flowers, not taking much care to avoid trampling the first row, he felt the first sneeze building up pressure in his nose and behind his eyes.

"You blasted rat! Where are you?"

He pulled apart a section of bright red flowers; he didn't know what they were called because he despised flowers, and ducked his head low to peer into the depths of the flowerbed. It was moving closer in proximity to the flowers that finally did it. Hugh took in three great breaths and then let out an almighty sneeze. It was strong enough to disturb some of the dirt on the ground before him.

Groaning, he stood up again and wiped his nose on his sleeve. It was as he was turning his head, his nose running up and down his arm, that movement in his peripheral vision caught his attention. Normally one who preferred to put his best face forward, Hugh was a bit embarrassed to be caught wiping his runny nose on his robes.

Nevertheless, Hugh put on his best haughty voice. albeit a bit thickly with his plugged nose and said, "Can I help you with something? It is not polite to stare."

REPLY

Artie was going to be in big trouble. Polly had let her borrow her potions textbook after her twins experiment with a love potion went wrong. Now she was looking through the garden trying to find it.

What was her twin doing in the garden anyways? Kicking the dirt she noticed something grey moving around in the brambles. As she got closer it quickly escaped her grasp.

Polly loved taking in stray animals.

Just then she heard foot steps approaching and instead of chasing after the little beast of a thing she decided to play it off cool..

But her playing it off cool was pretty much the opposite, especially when there was a cute boy involved.

"Can I help you with something? It is not polite to stare."

With wide eyes she looked down at her feet. She normally wasn't shy. "Polite isnt what I'm good at." She said as she tried to figure a way out of the flower bed she was currently in.

Just then her foot caught onto a vine, or rather the vine caught onto her.. You never knew with these magical beast of plants. It sent her tumbling onto the hard pavement, a slew of words no twelve year old should know spilling out of her mouth.

Roleplay:
Reply as your character to the following:

Godric Park.

Overhead, the sky was a crisp blue, for once clear of the ever-pervasive spongy clouds and rain. The sun was a lemony-yellow presence, high in the Eastern sky, and in front of it zipped three broomsticks in a straight line, or something very like one. One... two..... three... the boys passed, their shouts of excitement echoing as they chased the snitch, a tiny shimmer reflecting the sunlight.

Far below was another, much smaller broomstick.

It trugged along the ground, hugging close to it like a sluggish choo choo train and occasionally shuttering in protest. This was because said stick was currently being occupied by a very small girl who was tugging upward on the front of it with all her might, trying to coax it into doing what it had been expressly designed NOT to do.

"John, I said wait up!" The tiny girl squealed, giving the broomstick another tug.

Begrudgingly, it drifted upward a foot, and then sank, depositing the troublesome girl safely on the ground. Janey Hurst was not pleased. In a huff, she hopped off the toy safety broom, grabbing it firmly and thrusting it handle first into the turf.

Her brother was such a beast. He NEVER let her play! She folded her arms, seething blue eyes fixing on another figure nearby.  "You!" She barked, much more sharply than she meant to.

"...Do you want to play?"

Roleplay Response:
What a wonderful day. The sun was shining, seemingly giving her more energy. She had always loved the sun. It was as if the name she had been given was fate.

Wondering off from her mother wasn't something that was new. It was something to be expected, but luckily for her mom Apollo always seemed to find a park. This park was different from the one she played at back home. The one back home had swing sets and monkey bars.

"What a weird park." She stated to herself. It was the first time she had ever been to a park in the wizarding world. Most of her time was spent in the muggle one.. He parents very seldom brought the kids to wizarding places. Apparently since they'd be going off to school to live seven years in the wizarding world, they needed to know what the other one was like also.

Just to make fair judgements.

"You!"

Jumping a little bit, Apollo turned around with a furrowed brow. "Excuse you?" She stated with her hands on her hips. She could be sassy when she needed to be.

"...Do you want to play?"

A little taken aback, Apollo broke into a smile. "Sure!" She stated. She didn't know what the girl had in mind, but it had better be fun.
