The Revolution Has Begun
"There's no need to call me sir Professor."
FULL NAME: Grace Lynn Olson NICKNAMES: Gracie AGE: 15 BIRTHDAY: May 14th SEXUALIY: Straight BLOODLINE: Half-Blood HOUSE: Ravenclaw YEAR: 5th JOB: Student SIDE: The good side(as she calls it) SPECIES/SPECIAL ABILITIES: None CANON: Hayden Panettiere
"You don't know what I'm capable of, you don't know what I've done!"
GENERAL APPEARANCE: Grace is what most people would consider pretty, but she doesn't generally like to acknowledge it. She's about 5' 4" inches tall, and looks older than she actually is, some teachers have actually thought she was older than a fifth year, even her personality reflects that. She has a pretty athletic build, seeing as in her spare time she plays volleyball, and she really tries to keep it that way. She always has a look of happiness on her face, no matter the situation, but I think that's just how her face is shaped, if her mouth isn't, her eyes are always smiling.
Overall Grace is pretty tan for living in England; she actually is from Scotland, which makes her look even darker. She tends to take a lot of vacations to more tropical places to keep that up. So, since she's tan, she has quite a collection of freckles running across the bridge of her nose, and under her striking blue eyes. Grace has pretty long blond hair that settles at about the end of her shoulder blades, and when I say blond, I MEAN blond. Grace pretty much looks like almost every teenage girl today, but a little happier. MOST LIKED FEATURE: Her eyes MOST HATED FEATURE: Her feet HERITAGE: French, German, Scottish, and a little bit of Spanish from her dad's side ETHNICITY: Caucasian
"The mind is not a book, to be opened at will and examined at leisure."
GENERAL PERSONALITY: Grace, to begin, isn't the most... popular or coordinated of the students of Hogwarts, but she certainly is one of the most unintentionally funny and spastic of them. Grace, is obviously, not one to talk in class or one to fail her classes, actually she's quite anal retentive about her grades and is constantly obsessing over them. Normally, when she's not being O.C.D. she's tripping over a flat surface, running into something or someone, or just saying stupid stuff. She has a lot of "Blond moments", or you could say she's a huge ditz. She has no brain filter, so there's nothing stopping her from saying something, and when she does say it, it’s pretty funny.
Grace is always the one laughing in her small group of friends; she loves to refer to them as her "nerd herd". Her and her "nerd herd" are considered the huge misfits of the school, but if you compare them to the other groups of friends, they always look like they're having the most fun. Grace isn't very loud, but she likes to laugh, and her laugh is LOUD, so you always know where she is when someone says something funny, or if she trips and hurts herself, or runs into something. As I said before, she really tends to be the odd one out, while other students are out at Hogsmeade, in Zonkno’s, she’ll be in some quiet little tavern, buried in some book, until her friends drag her by her feet out of the quite place, and into the noise. Her friends are the ones always getting her in trouble by teachers, she’ll say one thing, her friends will say something derogatory of directed at a teacher as they pass by, and (as a joke) blame it on her, and she gets yelled at, but she’ll get them back eventually. She is incredibly witty and creative. She can pull a prank to play on her friends out of thin air, and then disappear from the scene so no one knows she was the one who did it until she cracks up laughing when they talk about it over dinner in the great hall. Finally, like every teenage girl, Grace is quite the helpless romantic. She wants to meet some Fabio-like(meaning perfect, not actually Fabio, she thinks he’s gross), and just fall head over heels for him and have this huge fiasco and them get over because, as a direct quote “True love always prevails!” this never fails to crack up her friends. HOBBIES: Reading, Volleyball, Quiddich DISLIKES: Spiders, snakes, rude people, rumors, loud people, getting low scores on her tests LIKES: Laughing, being with her "nerd herd", music, food, books, snow FEARS: Voldy and thunder SECRETS: She's afraid of thunder, she really hates any Slytherins
"I enjoyed the meetings, too. It was like having friends."
GENERAL HISTORY: Grace was born on May 14th, in Edinburgh, Scotland. Her parents, Michelle and Brian Olson, were quite young, both being 20 and 22, they definitely were not ready to have a child, but they gave it their best shot, always telling Grace to be herself, her mother always said "Just because everyone else owns it means you don't have to own it too. Just do the opposite. If someone jumps off a bridge, walk to a beach and go for a swim." Personally, this is a pretty good way to put things. This is how she was raised, a pretty laid back, but well off family.
Her family, when she entered primary school, often took trips to costal France, and Spain, were Grace was introduced to so many different cultures. You know how people are a product of their environment? Grace is defiantly and eclectic soul compared to most. Living the laid back life she lives just made her the person she is to present. Both of her parents being magical, and from extensive pureblood families, the day she would receive her acceptance letter to Hogwarts are VERY long anticipated.
Once that day came, three weeks after her 11th birthday, her entire family celebrated. There, for several days after, were parties and congratulatory gifts, most being money to buy her school supplies. When her first day at Hogwarts came, she pretty much was the little blond girl that didn't talk. People who were obviously from Slytherin made fun of her and poked at her on the train ride there. The rest of her first year was probably one of the best years of her life, just the freedom alone made it wonderful. During her second year, she gravitated towards the misfits, she really didn’t have any friends at Hogwarts and she really needed some to be able to get through her seven years there. She met most of the people in her current “nerd herd” through a group of seventh years, which in the next year, left her to go out into the wizarding world. Her third year, was also another one of the most fun years of her life, now that she actually had a group to be with made it that much better, except for losing her pet cat, whose probably somewhere on the grounds or was eaten by a werewolf. Her fourth year was pretty much the same, her being anal retentive about her grades, hanging with the “nerd herd”, the constant owls from her parents, and the constant B.S. from the Slytherin students. FAMILY: Mother - Michelle Ann O'hara-Olson Father - Brian Charlie Olson No Siblings
"Make way for the heir of Slytherin, seriously evil wizard coming through..."

Pending ! [/color][/font] please insert corrections that need to be made good luck! To Improve:
- The personality and history sections are a bit short - try going into more detail with these.
- There are quite a few spelling and grammar errors so try to fix those up as best you can. <3
Admin Note: Hi there! You've got a good start here but we'd like to see more of her! The biggest problem right now is the history - it really doesn't explain much of how she grew to be who she is now. You stop at her first year and she's a fifth year now - what happened to her in those years? How else has she evolved from her first year? Has she made friends? Has anything important happened in her family life? Try giving us some more details about her history, and that will help you add more to her personality too. As for that section, she doesn't really seem to have much of a dark side - times she feels sad or mad or upset or betrayed. How does she act and respond to these types of emotions? No one's happy all the time, so give us some explanation of the other sides of her. And again, go back and read through your app to try to fix some of the spelling and grammar errors, because it's sometimes a bit unclear. You've got a great start here, just expand on it a bit more. =)
