Personality: Eva has a confusing personality, probably because she is still trying to figure out who she is. She's sporty, because Quidditch is one of her passions; she's dorky, because she spends a lot of her free time reading and writing; she's nerdy, because she gets excellent grades; she's even considered preppy, though she would never label herself as this. Eva is a half-blood; because of her Muggle mother, she enjoys wearing Muggle clothing, claiming it's more comfortable than stuffy robes. She makes friends with everyone, but this is one of her greatest cons; with so many "friends", she hasn't found that one person, or more than one person, that she can really just be herself around. As she moves into her teenage years, she also begins to struggle with wanting a boy that can be that steady rock, which could be dangerous if she's not careful.
Family
- Mother: Susanna Chambers (Muggle)
- Father: Christopher Chambers (Half-blood, was in Ravenclaw)
- Siblings): Baby brother, two years old, named Eddie Chambers
- Other family members (if significant): N/A
History: Eva's parents are young. They had Eva when they were 18; Eddie didn't come until they were 29. Eva grew up in a humble middle-class home in London, where her mother stays at home and her father works at the Ministry in the Muggle department. The girl grew up going to a Muggle public school, though their home would be recognized as a wizard home if you knew what you were looking for. Eva's father has taught her a lot about wizarding, and bought her a broom when she was 8 years old. Every so often, Christopher took his daughter to an abandoned field, bringing his old broom with him, and taught her the basics of the game of Quidditch.
RP Sample: "It was a beautiful, sunny day at Hogwarts, and classes were in session. So of course, Sirius Black was sitting by the lake, whistling to himself and skipping stones along the surface of the water. He was cutting class, which was no surprise, but he was also alone, and that was unusual. For once, he did not have his ever-present companions, James, Remus, and Peter by his side. But even alone, no one would think he was anything but confident and comfortable with himself.
He tossed another thin, flat rock, and watched as it skimmed the surface, bouncing once, twice, three times, before the Giant Squid, seemingly annoyed by the disturbance, reached out one long tentacle and pulled the stone into the water.
Sirius laughed to himself, then leaned back against the tree, allowing the warmth of the sun to relax him. He slowly began to drift, and had nearly dozed off when he heard a voice above him."
Potions was next. Eva wasn't bad at potions, but the dungeons were so stifling! It was a beautiful day outside, and the sparkling lake was calling her name. She glanced over to the friend next to her and said, "Hey, you go on, I'll be there later, all right?" The friend nodded, and without a backwards glance, and two minutes later, an elated Evalyn Chambers was running out the huge doors of Hogwarts.
In honor of her rebellion, she shrugged off her robes, revealing a simple t-shirt and shorts underneath. Laying the robes over one arm, she skidded to a halt when she reached the lake. Breathing hard from the sprint, she collapsed on the cool grass. Eva was contemplating swimming in the pool when she suddenly realized that there was a boy sitting under one of the trees, looking as though he was about to fall asleep. Grinning, she said, "Tsk tsk, Sirius Black, cutting class again. Care for some company?"
Anything else? If I think of anything else, I shall definitely let you know(:
