Brief Childhood History: Her parents were killed when she was a child, the age of six, and she was later told it was done by Deatheaters. When she was slightly older Kamila would learn that her parents had in fact been avid supporters of the Dark Lord themselves. She had no idea what made them change their alliances, but for some reason they betrayed the death eaters and the Dark lord and that betrayal was enough for them to lose their lives. Kamila hid from the attack and escaped with her life; scared and alone she fled into the woods near to her house.
Some Muggles found her wondering around. Kamila had an Aunt Elena, who was also a witch, and she found her before Kamila could be put into the foster care system. Kamila would also come to learn that her Aunt Elena supported the Dark Lord even more strongly than her parents and this view would be part of the reason Kamila would turn out like she did. For example it was this that taught Kamila that muggleborn's are bad, not normal, and should not be accepted even in the Wizarding world. Though pleased not to be in care, Kamila still did not particularly like her Elena at first, in fact it ran deeper than that – she hated her because she was a stranger. Her parents attack had taught Kamila never to trust strangers even if they claim to be family. But overtime Kamila could not help but come to trust and respect an Aunt with both spoiled her and educated the best she could. Elena would bring home toys that Kamila had only dreamed of having with her real parents. Kamila occasionally called her 'Mum' because she realised just how much her Aunt loved her.
Kamila was never very social as a child. She enjoyed playing by herself, reading books, and playing dress up alone. But the one thing she liked the most was learning about magic. The main thing she was taught about Hogwarts by Elena was that she should be in Slytherin because any other house would be unforgivable. Everyone in their family had been Slytherin.
Strengths (Including Personality and Academic): Kamila showed from an early age that she was particularly smart. She had an aptitude for French at only age seven. Kamila would be good at Potions. The reason is when she was younger, and learning about magical subjects, she was fascinated by potions. She used to imagine herself making all these complex potions which would allow her to do all these amazing things. Personality wise Kamila can actually be nice, show you some respect, if you're nice too her at first and you are not a muggleborn. If she comes to like you then you and she will get along fine.
Weaknesses (Including Personality and Academic): She is very prejudice against those who aren't Pure blood especially if your muggleborn. Her Aunt Elena's views forced on her as a child made sure of that. She was taught not to be adverse to killing, things like that, and her moral standards are shaky at best. She would also not like Defense Against The Dark Arts because she was taught to love the dark arts and to treasure them as part of her. She would also not like History of Magic as it often gives a version of events that she is not familiar with and does not agree with.
What House You Feel Your Character Belongs In and Why: Well, every single witch and wizard in her family had been sorted into Slytherin, so it would make most sense if she went there. She doesn't really get along with people if the aren't pureblood. She can be pretty tricky and sneaky at times too. She can be very ambitious and sly. Especially when she wants something. She would either be put in Slytherin or Ravenclaw though because she is extremely intelligent for age. She loves too read. She would some times sneak and read muggle books simply too read.

Heya Kamila and welcome to HPRPG~!
However, before we can sort you, there are a few changes that need to be made. First, can you un-center your application? Makes it a bit wonky to read. ;)
Second, unfortunately she can't have death eater parents or a death eater aunt or... well, any death eater family members. ^^; We know the basic amount of death eaters that Voldemort had and, to keep the site as canon as possible, don't allow anymore to exist. Of course, Kamila's parents and aunt can have been Dark Lord supporters and have died betraying him for whatever reason and such. :D Also, it's not too big, but could you re-read your history a bit-- there are a few sentences that seem choppy that could go together and there are a few things that could be cleared up with with spell-check! <3
As for her weaknesses- Care of Magical Creatures is a class that she won't attend until her third year. Are there any core classes that you see her doing badly at?
Once you've made the necessary changes just swap the title from 'pending' to 'edited' and we'll continue with the sorting from there.
