Hogwarts School: A Harry Potter RPG

CHARACTER INFORMATION

Gender: Female

Age: 10

Bloodline:
Halfblood Pureblood (shhh, it's complicated, she doesn't know)

Parents/Guardians (Are they currently played characters?):
Born to muggle Richard Lackless and his witchy wife Eleanor, Tippa is waiting for her turn to join her older sister Eviguin at Hogwarts. (Richard and Eleanor are not played characters.)

Residence:
St. Albans, England, but Mum and Dad have talked about London more so Tippa doesn't really know, or care, as long as they get her the puppy she's been asking for for ages

None in particular at this time.

Do you wish to be approved as a group with any other characters? If so who and for what IC reason?
Nope, not at this time.

Please list any other characters you already have at the site:
Eviguin 'EG' Lackless

Biography: (100 words minimum.)
EG's at school, and Mum's acting funny again. That leaves Tip to take care of herself, 'cause Dad sure isn't any help.

Tippa looks sort of like her big sis, with the same pale blue eyes and freckles, but Tip's got reddish hair and doesn't care about any of the girly stuff EG likes. Except for being a wizard a'course, but that's as secret as the box of owl food EG keeps under her bed for us to pull out when she sends letters. Oh, and Tip also likes adventures, but EG follows way more rules.

On any given day, Tip's likely to wander around swiping sweets or riding her bike to anywhere she can. When she runs out of road she picks the best tree to climb up and try to get leaves in ladies' hair or things like that. That's getting boring though. Mum took her to the really cool wizard place once, and they took a train, so if Tip finds enough coins she's going to take the train there and Mum won't notice anyway because she's in bed all the time now.

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?"

Tippa saw the root growing out of the ground a little too late. Though she swerved, her front tire found a snug home where tree met dirt and decided to stay a while, sending the girl astride the rest of the bicycle straight into the tree's thick, scratchy trunk.

"Ooof," she exclaimed. "Watch it!"

Predictably, the tree did not respond to her warning, but one of these days it could answer back because of her wizard powers and then she would know all of the trees' secrets. Or maybe next time it would move.

If Tip had bothered to inspect the damage, she'd have noticed her knee was torn and bloody and bruises were already forming in many places, including her temple. But the girl didn't pay that much attention to that kind of thing because she had rather more important things to do.

Like kids flying!? Other wizards!?

Just as the redheaded girl managed to convince her bike to come with her, she heard noises and looked around and saw exactly what was going on. It was the first time Tip ever saw it but she knew, from the stories EG told her about how other kids at school would fly around on broomsticks and hit things at each other in the sky.

Tip ran with her bike toward the park nearby, forgetting she would be faster if she just got on it, and emerged through some poorly-placed bushes with a few extra scratches on her arms just in time for a girl around her age to fix Tip with some pretty ferocious attention.

"You! ....Do you want to play?"

It took all of two seconds for Tippa to figure out this girl wanted a friend more wanting to fly. Tippa wanted to fly pretty bad but maybe they could do that next.

"Yeah okay. Wanna ride my bike? It doesn't go in the air like those but it does go super fast. Can I see that broom?"
