Celebrity Claim (make sure you post in the Celebrity Claim list as well, and make sure your chosen celebrity is available): Still deciding, but I'm thinking about either Selma Blair or Rachael Leigh Cook (I'm looking for someone more "cute" than "pretty" and I see her as being really tiny)

Personality (At least 4 sentences, but longer is preferred): Abigail is similar to her sisters in a lot of ways. Like them, she has an independent spirit and likes to think for herself. But unlike them, she is also driven and ambitious, with a desperate need to be perfect. She often needs validation from others to tell her that she's doing a good job, because she always thinks she can do better. She looks up to her oldest sister in an almost envious way, and yet, she also thinks that Janis can do better than she is, that she could do something great with her life and is wasting it.
To those that do not know her well, Abbey seems to have no sense of humor. This is because she cannot take a joke about herself and has not learned to laugh at herself. But she actually loves to laugh, and loves to go to the movie theater in London to watch old comedy movies. However, she is not particularly romantic and has never been in love. Her social life is virtually non-existent, and when she is not working, she is either visiting family or going out to watch muggle movies on her own. She has a deep love for the Beatles, and even learned how to work a muggle record player so that she could have a collection of all their music. They are the only records she owns.
Her apartment is neat and organized, and everything is always in its precise place. She is good with domestic chores, such as cooking and cleaning, as well as managing her finances.
History (At least 4 sentences):
Abigail grew up in an pureblood wizard family. Her mother was practically disowned by her pureblood mania family for marrying her father who, while a pureblood, was considered a blood traitor. Abbey and her 3 sisters grew up in the country, believing all people, half and pureblood, to be equal and without much interaction with either side of their extended family.
Growing up, Abbey always felt lost in the shadow of her beautiful older sister Janis. Without ever even trying Janis attracted all of the attention and Abbey, who did not believe herself to be beautiful, felt invisible. As a result, she tried really hard to stand out in other ways, allowing her achievements to speak for her. She responded well to her parents' discipline, and as such she was always neat and organized and methodical in everything she did. At Hogwarts, she had very high marks, and even earned herself the title of Head Girl in her year.
But as soon as she graduated, she packed up her things and moved out. The atmosphere iof the house was often stifling to her, and there were just too many sisters around. She got an apartment in London (in the muggle section!) and accepted a job in the Ministry as a member of the Accidental Magic Reversal Squad. While spending so much time in London, she developed a fascination for muggles, and sometimes she goes out just to watch them and experience their lifestyle.
RP Sample (At least 4 sentences, must be as the character. Pretend it's your first post): I kind of want to do a witch/muggle love story with her. I don't think we really have any of those...
