First and Last Name: Cosette Sylvesta
Bloodline: Pure
Hair Color: Golden Blond
Eye Color: Light Green
General Build: Petite
Height: Short
Birthplace: Edinburgh, Scotland
Brief Childhood History: Cosette Sylvesta is the daughter of Conrad Sylvesta, a wizard from a traditional pure-blood family with a vocal disdain for muggle-born wizards and Henrietta de La Vallière, a graduate of Beauxbatons (of purely human stock) with a talent for potion making. She is the youngest among the five children and is the only girl among the siblings which has led her to picking up a few tomboyish qualities - a mistake her mother has been relentlessly trying to correct over the years. Her special place as the youngest and only daughter in the family allowed her to enjoy an unusual degree of care and attention which has turned her into something of a spoiled brat.
Even though her family loved her so, many people she met over the years couldn't tolerate her arrogance and her often dangerous pranks. She was a habitual trickster and had a frightening fondness for setting traps for people to stumble into which prompted a few severe punishments from her parents when things got out of hand.
She has since learned how to properly socialize with people and subdue her darker desires under a fabricated persona. Though she cannot change her playful nature Cosette has learned to assume a different personality among the people outside her family. At home their house-elves call her Cosette the Cruel, but the character she presents everyone else is nothing but saintly... save for her mistrust of mudbloods that occasionally slip through her otherwise socially acceptable visage.
Strengths (Including Personality and Academic):
Cosette is an incredibly two-faced individual who wears personalities like one would clothes. One persona is fabricated by the demands of society and the other her true self. Her public face is that of a meek and kind girl who freely dispenses support and encouragement to everyone, but the truth is far from what her honeyed words and pretty face suggests. Cosette is trickster at heart, she is cunning and incredibly patient above all her other qualities. She has a gift for befriending people and using them to further her own agendas.
Among the all classes Cosette is most familiar with two, the first being Defense Against the Dark Arts which is closely tied to the Dark Arts that was once at the heart of her family's legacy. The other is Potions, which her mother happens to have an intuitive gift for - the same intuition she seems to have inherited.
Weaknesses (Including Personality and Academic):
Cosette is a brat at heart. She may play the role of a nice girl adeptly but she has a tendency to become unusually annoyed when things don't go according to plan. When things take a turn for the worse she finds concentrating on complex tasks a chore and when her composure runs its course her true sour personality starts to show without her realizing.
Cosette has a problem with classes that she finds useless to her education as a witch, she finds that she has no drive to study them. Astronomy, Care of Magical Creatures, Divination and Muggle Studies immediately come to mind.
What House You Feel Your Character Belongs In and Why: Slytherin. She has a cunning and patient nature and she often exercises subtlety in achieving her ends. Cosette is also vindictive and feels no guilt when she pulls her pranks – not that she creates any lethal traps in the first place. I think she’s someone that has a natural predisposition towards becoming a villain and Syltherin is the only house that would applaud her methods.

Hi there! Welcome to HPRPG!
So your sheet is fantastic, really, but the problem is that it is too detailed. :lol: Cosette has many years to develop and grow, and in fact, later on, you will get the opportunity to expand on Cosette's character sheet as much as you want. For now though, please try and trim down the strengths and weaknesses section. While you do this, also remove the section headers you've created for the classes and try and integrate it all into one paragraph or even just a sentence if you could.
Once you've done that, just change the title from 'pending' to 'edited'!

I have modified my Character Sheet according to your suggestions Sir Jayce. I apologize for the superfluous entry, I was concerned that I would be rejected if my Character Sheet did not have sufficient content.

Slytherin house is currently closed at the moment. You will be placed on the waiting list, but if at any point you decide you would like your character to be in another house, just edit the sheet accordingly and reply here.
