First and Last Name: Pearl Clarke
Bloodline: Half Blood
Hair Color: Blonde
Eye Color: Grey
General Build: Petite
Height: Average
Birthplace: London, UK
Brief Childhood History: It was a cold February morning when Pearl came into the world. Her mother, a muggle, was alone as her father, a wizard, left for an 'Important Meeting' earlier that morning. However, unknown to her mother's knowledge, her father was actually off to the wizarding world to deal with an unfortunate accident in his department of The Ministry.
As Pearl grew, so did her curiosity and often asked her father what he was doing while he was away. Every time she did, he would just reply "You'll find out when you're older" Being as impatient as she is, this was never enough to quench her thirst for the truth and, at the age of nine, left the comfort and safety of her mother and the flat on the edge of London to follow her father. To her disappointment, she lost him a few yards from the flat and had to return home.
Without much of a father figure in her life, Pearl took up a number of interests by the way of her mother, trying to keep her out of trouble. She enjoyed being around nature and animals, as a kind of substitute for fatherly love. She is very bright and quite intelligent for her age but never boasted about it. She didn't have many friends to boast to. Many people at her school thought she was weird because of the things she did at school. Small things mind you, but strange things no doubt. Things she can't explain.
She found, that when she got angry with someone, something bad would happen to them. Like them falling over, or getting ill on the very same day she was angry. She just ignored it though, she thought they were all coincidences. Things would move on her teachers desk in front of everyone, and books would - as if pushed - fall off of bookshelves. No-one could explain it but the kids would blame Pearl, because she was quiet. Little did they know that their hunches were true.
On recieveing the acceptance letter from Hogwarts, her mother was in complete shock as Pearl's father had to admit his true secret but this gained a new-found respect for Pearl of his father.
Strengths (Including Personality and Academic): Being very clever as she is, Pearl will be good at most classes but the ones she will succeed most in are Care of Magical Creatures and Herbology because she has a love for nature and animals. She is very friendly and will help and stand by people who need it. She is very witty and has a dry sense of humour but it not very well known among her peers, although, the friends she has will be cared by her deeply as she treasures these such simple things in life.
Weaknesses (Including Personality and Academic): Even though she is kind and friendly, she's not very confident when it comes to meeting new people and making new friends. She likes to keep herself to herself and can spend an unruly amount of time on her own in the library. The lesson she will not be very good at Defence Against the Dark Arts as she is very naive and gets scared easily
What House You Feel Your Character Belongs In and Why: I think Pearl will belong in Ravenclaw as her knowledge and quiet character will fit in there the most. Also, to keep close to her father, follow on his footsteps.

Hi there! Welcome to HPRPG!
Before we can sort you, there are just a few things to attend to.
In her Strengths, could you provide for us a core class that Pearl would do well in? While it's great to know that she'll do well in Care of Magical Creatures, it's not a class she will be taking until her third year. ;) In addition, can you also give us one or two more personality strengths for her?
And Pearl would have most likely shown signs of magic before receiving her letter from Hogwarts. So it seems unlikely that her mother would have found out about magic so very late in Pearl's life. You don't necessarily have to change this fact, but simply edit in something to make it more believable. Maybe that Pearl showed signs of magic very late in her life, or she only showed little signs of magic that usually went unnoticed.
Once you've done this, go ahead and change your title from 'pending' to 'edited' and we'll go from there!

Ok! Done that ;)

I'm going to stick you onto the Ravenclaw waiting list for now, since the house is closed, but if at any point you would like to change houses for Pearl, simply edit the sheet accordingly and reply here. :)
