Biography:
Nari Parker was an immigrant from Korea. Her mother was a Korean native and her father was an Greek writer. Both met each other when her father, Luke was visiting Korea for writing inspiration. He didn't only find his inspiration for his upcoming novel but he also found a new inspiration in his life, Chun-hei. They both were wed for three years before Chun-hei got home sick. Luke didn't have much of a good feeling about Korea at the time and begged Chun-hei to stay in Greece with him. The couple fought and Chun-hei fled back home.

It wasn't until months later, she found herself pregnant. Chun-hei's life and family took place in Southern Korea. Tension was rising from North Korea and Chun-hei could sense something was coming.

At the beginning in June of 1952, Nari was born. War was amidst Korea. Northern Korea had been invading North Korea into communism. Chun-hei wanted her only daughter to live a better life than to grow up in an uncertain future. So, Chun-hei wrote a letter to Luke telling him about his daughter and how she had planned on fleeing. One night after nine months of waiting, Chun-hei left with only herself and little Nari. The pair were going to attempt to sneak onto an industrial train with a couple of neighbors.

After a risky flee, only few made it onto the train cars. Chun-hei didn't make it, a neighbor taking Nari as they left towards Greece. It was a long and harsh travel. The neighbor who was temporarily caring for Nari gathered help from the other survivors in attempting to feed her with anything that was suitable for any nine month old baby. Goat milk was the only thing they could really provide along with bits of honey here and there. Eventually, Nari made it safely to Greece.

Thankfully, Chun-hei had left a small scrap of paper inside of Nari's coat that said Luke's address and nothing else but "I love you my moon' in Korean on the back. Nari was reunited with her father, a family finally brought back together. Luke was offered a large writing opportunity the United Kingdom when Nari was about four. The father daughter duo packed up and moved to Bath. Since then Nari has been growing up in a lovely town inside the comfort of Bath.

Note: This section is optional, and is up to you to complete.

House Request: SLYTHERIN!

Personality:
Driven by the satisfaction of success and motivation, Nari is often called a very ambitious girl. Her heavily introverted personality often made studying, reading and succeeding in her work more tempting than to go out and play with friends. Don't overlook the silent and reserved nature of Nari Parker because packed in such a small body is a dragon ready to unleash if ever to cross her path wrong. Many can't seem to handle Nari's lack of empathy or the fact she will instantly turn to bluntness to confront someone can tend to make her hard to communicate with. As much as there seems to be more of negative flaws in the works of Nari, there still is good within her heart. Loyalty to those who she heavily regards as friends and the love she'll store for them proves her to be a faithful friend and willing to go to the ends of the earth for anyone she holds dear.

Appearance:
Nari Parker was more on the smaller diagram of most children her age. Always reaching everyone's shoulders or below, Nari has been used to being the smallest of the group. With her dark raven hair (usually tied up and out of her face for concentration) and determined judging dark eyes, Nari was the vision of someone you'd be convinced was a ghost. Her wardrobe seemed to constantly change, sometimes bright pastels contrasting with her darker features or often choosing the most common color; black. The one thing that Nari Parker is known for is her sense of accessorizing. From hats, bracelets, rings, earrings, and headbands, Nari constantly matches the theme of her outfit. The only accessory that seems consistent is the small ribbon wrapped around her wrist, a trinket she often pretends her mom gifted her.

→ SAMPLE ROLEPLAY.
You come across one of these posts on the site. Please select one & reply as your character. Remember, you can only roleplay your own character's actions, not Evangeline's or Hugh's.

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.



Option 2:

Nari Parker quite liked the dungeons. The cool, damp stoned walls felt comforting and the silence that followed was even more delightful. If anything, she'd never would want to leave.

Many of her friends thought of the dungeons are creepy. Because of the dim candle light and lack of much life beneath, her friends simply preferred other places. But not Nari, it was only ever the dungeons or forbidden forest she liked to stalk off into. The library became a close second along with the courtyard.

As she walked her way down another tunneled hall, Nari hummed under her breath while shoving her hands into her robe pockets. The tips of her fingers grazed the hardcover and pointed corners of the book she had shoved inside. Eventually she would reach a quiet spot to finish reading her short novel that her dad had owled her earlier that week. Another old literature piece that had the great old dust smell still floating off the pages.

"Hello! Is Emma Birch here?" Her steps slowed and she raised an eyebrow, chin held high as she tried to peek down the dark lit hall.

"No." Nari's monotone voice echoed back, face contorted back into her usual expressionless features. "I thought she was dead."

Clearly someone missed the memo. Though yet again, ghosts often regularly haunted the old castle so there could be a chance Emma Birch wasn't resting peacefully under a tree somewhere.
