History (At least 4 sentences): Lucrezia was born in Sorrento to Leonardo and Lisa d'Medici. Her parents were both magical but they weren't pureblood supremacists. Her father was injured when he stood up the pureblood supremacists of Italy. Lucrezia and her mother cured him after a month. Leonardo moved his family from Sorrento to Glasgow to protect his wife and daughter. Lucrezia attended Hogwarts a year after moving. She greatly enjoyed Charms class and Transfiguration. She received O's in most of her O.W.L.s and then again in her N.E.W.T.s.
She took a year out to return to Italy to get her cousin (Lorenzo) out of the country. He had been tortured by the supremacists there. She was injured in the process. She recovered soon after. When she returned to Scotland, she found her mother had been injured by a Death Eater. Lucrezia then partnered up with Lorenzo to try and stop Death Eaters. By the age of thirty, she had had enough and went to Professor Dumbledore to apply for the job she always wanted...
RP Sample
Lucrezia sat behind her desk. She had everything ready for her First-Years. She remembered her first Transfiguration lesson. She had been so excitd about it, she didn't realise she was nearly quarter of an hour early. She laughed to herself. She checked the lesson plan for the fifth time in five minutes. She had to give an introduction, show them some spells, give them a few quick questions and then set their homework. Fabulous. Coudln't run smoother. The students started filing in, one by one...
"Bonjourno. My name is Professor d'Medici. Pronounced duh-me-deech-ee." She wrote her name on the blackboard behind her. "Welcome to Transfiguration. I am here to teach you the wonders of the art of changing things with a word. But I warn you, Transfiguration is one of the most dangerous magical arts. If you misbehave, you may find yourself as a small mouse or rat." She looked at the students horrified faces. "I'm joking. But, I can't stress enough how much trouble you will be in if you do not treat this with the correct respect. I mean, if you don't listen and then don't ask me for help, you will most likely receive a very poor grade at the end of the year." She looked at some of the students at the back. The ones with their elbows hanging off the back of their seats. They seemed to not really care. Two of them were just talking to each other. "You two. At the back, yes, you two." She pointed at them. "Names?" They replied. "House?" They replied again. "5 points taken off you both." She then scanned the people at the front. One of them looked especially excited. "As I was saying, before I was rudely interrupted, Transfiguration is dangerous. OK?" She looked at the students. They looked back at her.
"Now, to start off this term, Im going to give you a quick quiz. Can you please hand these out?" She gave the papers to a boy at the front. "And take 5 points for your House." The test looked like this:[center][b]Professor d'Medici's Transfiguration Test[/center][/b]
