Biography:
Alysandra was born to Rebecca Jacobs and Samuel Gardner she was primarily raised by her mum her dad left even before she was born. Most of the time her mum left her with her grandparents so she could make money to raise her young daughter. Alysa as she was called by her grandparents was spoilt emoitonally by her grandparents they were always telling her how beautful she was this lead to her having a really good self esteem. Alysa's first time of childhood magic surprised her Grandparents they had been trying to get her to eat her vegetables and she yelled NO and the spoon went flying out of  her Grandmothers hand and embedded itself into the wall her grandparents  were astounded. When her mum came home they left Alysa to play with her toys and told her mum about it. Rebecca just dismissed pointing out even if she had done it she was still her daughter it proved she was special.

This lead to her mum becoming estranged from her parents and finding a small 1 bedroom apartment for the both of them luckily Alysa was able to go too a local Daycare during the day and her mum got a job at the daycare as well so Alysa was always with her mum. This lead to them being really close and tight even outside of the daycare they did everything together so it became a big surprise when she was 8 She was at home waiting for her mum to come home from the shops with there dinner when suddenly she wasn't in her apartment anymore but in a big paddock. Alysa started to cry she had lost her mum after crying for nearly 4 hours she pulled herself together and found a small stream and washed her face of all the tears and set out for london maybe something happened and she had fallen asleep and someone had abducted her and left her in that paddock to die when she got closer into the city it looked all strange. Alysa started wandering and got really lost she swore this wasn't London but all the signposts did say London she couldn't figure it all out.

After about 6 hours of just wandering London and finding nothing she remembered one time she had been in London with her mum and she saw a Small bar called the leaky cauldron her mum said i cant see it darling and they were in a hurry anyway. She tried to find that Bar but it took her 3 hours to find it but it looked completely the same time she wondered why it would when everything around it looked so different she decided to walk in and found herself in a bar she found a table near the fire to try and warm up when a lovely lady came over and said "you lost darling we can help you if you want." Alysa had been taught to be wary around strangers but there was something about the women which lead to her answering the women "yes im lost i cant find my mum anywhere and everything looks different im Alysa by the way" the women lead to her to a table and fed her some food and told her about what happened. Since then she has lived with the family and been taught some witchcraft and learnt what she was.

→ SAMPLE ROLEPLAY.

Blimey, the Great Hall was packed. It seemed like everywhere a guy looked there was some clown waving around a House banner or yelling about the game.

'Can you believe it?' 'No way!' 'This must be the biggest upset in Hogwarts Quidditch history...'

Stupid Quidditch.

James flopped into an empty seat at the end of the table, shoved an empty plate out of the way, and let his head sink onto his crossed arms, squishing his freckled nose down flat against the tabletop. He wasn't sure why he'd even bothered to come here, since he definitely wasn't hungry. He'd probably never eat again, in fact. He didn't deserve to eat. He hadn't stopped in the locker room to change out of his muddy, sweaty uniform after the game either, because he was pretty sure he probably didn't deserve to be clean too; and anyway he couldn't stand to see the looks on his team mates' faces after he blew their chance at winning one of the biggest games they had ever played.

Just one lousy shot. That's all it would have taken. If he could have just got that one stupid foul shot to go through that one stupid hoop, they could have won and he wouldn't have been the biggest blockhead in the entire school.

As if to prove the point, half the people at the next table suddenly broke into a loud victory chant. James pressed his face further into his arms to hide the bright red blotches he could feel creeping up his cheeks. That was it. He was just going to have to run away and move to Nova Scotia. He'd just cost the three-year-in-a-row Champions the Quidditch Cup! How do you ever live that one down for crying out loud? He was only a second year and he was going to spend the rest of his life as 'that dumb cry-baby kid who dropped the Quaffle!'

It felt like every set of eyes in the room was boring into him, and James couldn't stand it anymore. He jerked himself back up from the table and stomped right back out of the Hall the same way he had come in. As he stormed into the quieter hallway outside, he could hear footsteps somewhere behind him. James rounded on the sound and began to shout, his brown eyes shining with tears. "WHAT! Haven't you ever seen a loser before? Why don't you just take a picture!"
----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
Alysa had really enjoyed watching the game of quidditch it was a spectacular sport the speeds which they went and the skill which they showed  it was exhilarating she hoped to be good enough to play when she was old enough but she suspected she wasn't. Alysa had been to her first Flying class and it didn't go so well she was somewhat shaky when she was only a few centimeters from the air. she had felt all wrong and had nearly been sick on the ground. it was the same when she saw the team fly but the excitement of it all somewhat lessened it. one table was celebrating she headed towards that table and sat down with her housemates and celebrated alongside them helping herself too some orange juice and started talking with some of her friends about the game wondering who you got picked for the team Alysa hoped it wasn't your marks from your Flying classes.

after a little while the table was becoming normal again and people were just chatting about normal things and Alysa started walking out with a couple of her Mates she then was yelled at by a person from the opposing team she couldn't really tell what he said but she caught the word picture. Alysa replied Why would i want a picture of someone who yells at innocent strangers your weird mate get over losing its just a game a fascinating game at that but still your life doesn't depend on you winning it so get over it." Alysa knew that was somewhat harsh to say but there were much more important things than a game. Alysa then started to walk away with her friends just chatting about this weeks homework for Charms.

Hello Alysa,

Your application is looking good! Before we can accept you, however, there's just a few things that need to be addressed.

Firstly, here at HS.net, we encourage realism within writing - this helps to maintain the tone of the site. Please remember that it's unlikely, even in the 1930's, for a small girl to have been wandering alone around London for several days and not be noticed.

You might also want to keep in mind that the Time Warp happened on New Years Eve, so in England it would most likely be fairly cold, maybe even snowing, which would make it unlikely that an eight year old would be able to walk a great distance, or live outside on the streets at night.

Secondly, as for the appearance for Alysa - we've noticed this elsewhere on the web. We don't accept plagarism, and we like our apps to be unique, so if you could please edit that, it would be great!

Lastly, your roleplay response is looking great, there's just one small thing in the end I will need you to address. If this was a thread at any of the boards, having Alysa walk away would end the thread. You never know what James might do, maybe he will try to stop her even! Therefore, if you could please change that so maybe Alysa began to walk away, that would be great!

Please address these things and repost your application below, then we'll be happy to look it over again!
