ABOUT YOUR CHARACTER
Character Name: Nora Irene Churchill
Character Age: 22
Appearance:
- Brief Description: Nora is fairly pale. Usually her hands are black or some other color as a result of her painting or drawing. She wears her hair however she feels like it for the day. Most of the time she just lets it go pin straight. There are a few nights when she’ll put her hair up at night to let it become wavy. She doesn’t feel like she needs to impress anyone so Nora will wear whatever she decides to wear. However, she does like to wear red lipstick from time to time.

Weaknesses:
- Flying (she is scared of heights but no one would ever know that)

- Sarcasm (it’s both a strength and a weakness, seeing as she uses it all the time)

Personality: Nora is very fluent in sarcasm, it is one of her many talents. She uses sarcasm with a lot of people, even if she doesn’t know them. Nora has always been a little older than her age. She blames that on part on her history, something she doesn’t really like talking about. Although, she can have her immature moments. Nora doesn’t really like talking about herself in general, unless she uses sarcasm. She’s fairly outspoken and quick to answer. She attempts to let things roll off her back, but there’s only so much a girl can take. Overall, she’s fairly quiet unless she decides to speak.
Nora doesn’t like to be called by her middle name. In school she got in trouble a few times because she hexed a few people for calling her that.
Family
- Mother: Maureen Irene Churchill
- Father: Phillip James Churchill
- Siblings (if any, list names and ages): None
- Other family members (if significant):
History: Nora doesn’t have a tragic past. She was born to Maureen and Phillip out of wedlock. It wasn’t until Maureen was six months along that she noticed she was pregnant. One morning Maureen couldn’t wear the pants she usually could fit into. Phillip took her to the doctor and the doctor told her that she was six months pregnant. The next day, it was as if Maureen stomach grew to prove that she was six months along. Phillip and Maureen, being the calm people that they were, decided to elope and get married, even though their families didn’t really approve of it. Both of them cut ties with their families and started their own.
Growing up, Nora didn’t have any brother or sisters. Phillip was full of sarcasm and used it all the time. Being a daddy’s girl, Nora picked it up. Her parents were pretty easy going, after all they tried to involve themselves in the ‘hippie’ movement. Her parents were never real hard on her. As long as Nora did what made her happy and stayed out of dangerous trouble, then her parents were happy too.
Nora found that she loved painting and drawing as well as music. She usually kept to herself since she was an only child. Her parents hung Nora’s paintings and drawings on the refrigerator proudly and made sure to show the pictures off to any visitors that they had. There was never a day that went by that had a few laughs.
Once Nora’s powers were revealed, their parents praised her even though Nora accidently made her father’s chair that he was sitting in disappear. At first she thought she hurt him, but everyone started laughing, so she knew that things were good. They encouraged her to study magic and do whatever she wanted after she graduated Hogwarts.
Now that she has graduated from Hogwarts, Nora has no idea what she wants to do, even five years later. The only thing that is really supporting her is the few pieces of art she sells or the photos that she can take.
Anything else?
