name kallie miller.
nickname/s kal, miss miller.
birthdate september 12th, 1987.
ethnicity english and german.
Age 24.
Blood Status half-blood.
Appearance
Kallie had average looks. She stood at 5'4 and was neither tiny or over-sized, but somewhere between the two. short brown hair fell all around her face, usually swept to the side. Blond highlights claimed the top of her head, put there in an effort to make her looks less plain. It fell to her shoulders. Eyes were a hazel and were often hidden by her bangs; and not by choice. She was often fussing to get the untamed hair out of the way. Clothing style was traditional; sticking to the usual cloak with the occasional trace of Muggle element. She often wore Muggle accessories, particularly favoring hair bows and lockets.
Notable Abilities I'd like her to be a werewolf, but I've spoken to you guys about it and you say not until the specials are open, but perhaps her werewolf-ness can still be there, just doesn't affect RP until it's allowed?
Wand

-Core - dragon heartstring.
-Length - 9 1/2 inches.
Class defense against the dark arts.
Personality
Kal was a sarcastic thing with a bark just as bad as her bite. she was usually kind and would never leave a student behind, but if in a bad mood or provoked she'd quickly pick up an attitude, a symptom of an awful temper. She was loyal and hardworking, as most hufflepuffs were. and quick to defend her old house.
She was intelligent and determined, and would not tolerate unruly students. She was young to be a teacher, and due to this did have the occasional unintentional slip-up, but her intelligence and bravery makes up for this. Independence is also a thing the girl strives for, insisting she do things herself and refusing to rely on anyone. Her temper was easily evoked when things didn't go her way, stubborn ways also unhelpful when she had her heart set on something.
History
Kal was born to Katherine and Aaron Miller. She was born in Westminister, London though she spent most of her years in a neighborhood just off of Diagon Alley. She received her letter to Hogwarts at age 11, and was enrolled there, housed in hufflepuff. she tried her hardest in class, trying to prove that ravenclaws weren't the only intelligent house and planning on becoming an Auror when she graduated. She'd been something of an anti-social child but kept a few friends around. With the O.W.L.s necessary and high marks she managed to start Auror training. Though a year into her training, she was bitten by a werewolf when accompanying a friend researching centaurs in the forbidden forest.
She was turned; and due to the discrimination in the wizarding world towards werewolves, wasn't able to continue her Auror training. Most she once loved turned on her, some a bit more soft on telling her off than others ("We should see other people." "Oh, I can't hang out with you tonight. Boyfriend's not feeling too well."), those that turned on her included most of her family.
A while after the incident she was offered a teaching job at Hogwarts, and took it up with no other job to go to, despite rumor of a jinx on the position she took up. So far it's been fairly uneventful, with her werewolf-ness thankfully hidden pretty well so far.
[going back to the werewolf thing; history can be edited if the need to arises.]
Family nobody of mention; but if anyone wants to play her sibling or something they're very welcome to if they just ask.
Roleplay Sample
Kallie leaned against her desk as students filed in, hands on either side of the wood as she mentally marked off each of them. She'd finally had this bunch memorized, now able to have attendance done within a minute or so and without need to call each student's name out.
Everyone's here except.. Oh, what's his face, Huan? She thought, otherwise it seemed that everyone had arrived. Hazel eyes passed over each student with satisfaction at the attendance record for the day before she pushed herself off the desk.
"Alright class, everyone take your seats." She commanded. If everyone would do so she would clasp her hands together, bracelets on both wrists jangling. "Today we're going to learn the charm Riddikulus." Teacher would state. However if some students were intent on being defiant to her command she'd pause and eye them pointedly, until they did as told. If they continued to refuse or did otherwise besides sitting she'd address them further.
A group of children to her right looked towards the suspicious cabinet sitting lone by her side, various bumps and shuffles of the sort heard from behind the locked door. They knew what was in there, probably from past lessons or something of the like. "Riddikulus is a charm-" She held up her hand at a child eagerly holding up his hand, nearly leaping from his seat with the desire to answer. Silence, her gesture said. "-but does anyone know exactly what it does?"
[this is going to sound stupid; i have 3-years RP experience but none on forums. only on the game furcadia. so if i made any mistakes, big or small, point them out for me?]
