Character Personality
General Personality:
Kirstin is shy and quiet, with few friends. In the public eye, shes very calm and unnoticeable. Inside, she's very insecure, and constantly worries what everybody thinks. When she gets angry or offended, she doesn't say anything, and she never stands up for herself. This causes people to walk all over her, and she always keeps quiet. She has no self esteem, and is very easily overwhelemed. It hardly takes anything to make her cry, and she breaks down and gives up very easily. She barely ever trusts anybody, and its really hard for her to make friends.
However, Kirstin can be a really peaceful person. She's very calm, and doesn't have a temper. She's really good at understanding peoples problems, and usually has good advice, and she'll always listen to her friends and family. She really enjoys singing and painting, and shes good at swimming.

General Appearance:
Kirstin has a pretty face, but mostly unnoticed, with soft features. Her long blonde hair has thick gentle waves to it. It falls just below her shoulders, framing her face. Her eyes are a deep blue-green color, and pretty big. She has thin lips and arching eyebrows.
She's 5'2, a little bit shorter then most people, but not really. She still has obvious signs of her former eating disorder. While she doesn't look exactly like those freaky anorexic girls you see in magazines, she's still really skinny. Her ribs are slightly visible through her skin, and she looks sort of unhealthy, but not quite. She dresses in simple clothes, usually lose ones to hide her thinness, jeans and a shirt, and usually a sweater.

History:
Kirstin was born on January 17th, as her parents first child. She grew up poor, with three younger siblings; a 3-year younger brother, a 5-year younger sister, who was pronounced blind at birth, and a 11-year younger brother. When Kirstin was 11, she got her hogwarts letter. She was uneasy about leaving her family, especially with her sisters diability and the newborn baby, but her parents assured her they would be fine without her.
In her first year, Kirstin was sorted into Ravenclaw. She made a few friends, and did very well in her classes, making her parents very proud of her. She became friends with a quiet 2nd year girl named Tess. Almost immediately, Kirstin and Tess became inseperable. They spent every second together, and told eachother everything. Eventually, they got even closer to the point of being more than just friends.
Kirstin's second year was uneventful, and she was very happy with her girlfriend/bestfriend. The two were misfits together, and Kirstin was very much in love with her. Everything seemed perfect until the end of second year, whenTess started dating a really popular 3rd year boy named Kevin. The relationship was over quickly, but it launched Tess into a whole new world of popular preppyness that Kirstin would never be apart of. She completely forgot about her former bestfriend, and Kirstin was devastated. When she tried to talk to Tess, the older girl laughed at her, and started talking so much nuts about her, spreading rumors and making fun of her.
Tess's negative comments caused Kirstins self-esteem, as well as her happiness, to vanish. And she started down a dangerous destructive path. Throughout her 3rd year, she hardly talked to anybody. Her grades dropped, she ditched classes, gave up her hobbies and took up drinking. And she began eating less and less. She was constantly drunk or high, and was getting way too thin, but nobody really noticed, and she was too scared too ask for help.
At the beginning of her 4th year, she started dating a 7th year boy named Mark. He got her into harder drugs, and just made her life worse. Eventually, their relationship turned abusive. Mark insulted her, yelled at her, and hit her. She became very depressed and even more withdrawn. This continued throughout most of her 4th year. Until one night, she had spent the night drinking, and had not eaten for four days, and ended up being so weak she fainted in the middle of Transfiguration. She was taken to a hospital, and her bruises, eating disorder, and alchohol abuse were discovered. Her parents were horrified, but she convinced them she was okay. She stopped seeing Mark, and managed to avoid him until he graduated. Over the summer, she started singing and painting again, and spend alot of time helping her parents and taking care of her sister and brothers. She felt horrible for being selfish, and managed to make up with her family.
When she went back to Hogwarts for her 5th year, she was doing alot better. She did very well in her classes, and wasn't quite as thin, but still had barely any friends. A few months into the school year, she met a boy named James, and the two became very close. She made alot more friends, even though James was her only close friend. Tess, now queen of the 6th years, still hated her, she wasn't very popular, she still struggled with anorexia and alchohol abuse, and she had hardly any self esteem, but she had a bestfriend, and then helped alot. Her grades were better, and she wasn't being overwhelemed as easily. 5th year was mostly smooth sailing, and everything was pretty much okay. She went home for the summer, helping her family as usual.
Role-Play Sample [2+ Paragraphs:
Jackson O'dea was faily certain he currently had a prostitute sitting on his lap.
Her name was Alexis and she smelled like booze.
And she wouldn't shut up.
The two of them were sitting under a tree with a whole bunch of people that he barely knew.
Alexis was currently carrying on and on about some random story of her and her friend shopping for shoes.
"Jackson likes his hookers quiet." he said to her.
"What?" she said, looking seriously alarmed.
Okay, she wasn't really a prostitute. She was a 4th year. But come on, she was wearing fishnets under her short-shorts. The just screams "Got 50 bucks?"
"Nevermind" he told her, sliding her off his lap and standing up. "I'm gonna bounce. Later." he strolled away.
Looking around, he spotted Adamina and Ashlynn sitting on a bench not too far away. He'd never talked to them much before, but whatever.
"Hello ladies" he grinned, sliding down on the bench between them, where there was no room causing them both to move to the side.
