APPEARANCE

Play-By: Sophie Turner
Height: 5'8
Weight: 130 lbs
Hair Colour: Red
Eye Colour: Blue
Skin Colour: Caucasian
Distinguishing Features: Ears are pierced once, and she has a tattoo of the solar system on her forearm. Other than that, Verona is remarkably plain. She doesn't have the lightning scar that her father has or his vibrant green eyes, though she did inherit her mother's flaming hair. The girl has frequently been described (mostly by herself) as mousy in appearance.
Dressing Style: Verona isn't one to adhere to one particular style. She loathes dresses and dressing up, and heels and heavy jewelry are part of that. If she does have to dress up, it's usually in something understated or unconventional. The sporty female prefers jeans and shorts with t-shirts and tank tops, paired with boots or sneakers. Her hair is rarely in anything other than a ponytail or down around her shoulders. She prefers simple jewelry to anything else, though she does pay particular attention to her make-up - the only girly thing she seems to adhere to.

PERSONALITY

Personality Description: There are two sides to Verona. There's the professional side, the one dedicated to learning and observing and problem-solving. That's the side she fakes. Her real self is much more boisterous. Verona is loud and opinionated, brave and bold. She fights wholeheartedly for what she believes in and doesn't let anyone or anything get in her way. Her family issues have made her as tough as nails, not particularly opening up to anyone because of it. She hides her longing for a normal, conflict-free life, behind her daredevil personality. She can get herself into trouble, but she knows how to talk her way out of it if need be. She's always on her toes, looking for the next quick, daring fix. Still, she has a huge heart and is slowly wearing away inside due to her longing for some sort of loving and doting father-figure... Or any sort of adoring relationship at all. Verona is also a very sexual being, priding on physical intimacy... It's just incredibly hard to match that with any sort of emotional intimacy. Once she latches onto someone emotionally, it's easy for her to become loyal to the point of clinginess, for she is always secretly afraid they'll leave her.
Likes: the night life, Quidditch, transfiguration, halfbreeds, breaking the rules, adventure, summer weather
Dislikes: potions, cold weather, being ignored, her family name, sticking to the rules, being confined, being controlled
Strengths: transfiguration, Quidditch, excellent conversationalist, her brave nature, confident
Weaknesses: temperamental, daredevil nature, rule-breaking ways, potions, a pretty/handsome face, will never turn down the opportunity to go out

History: Everyone knows the story of Harry Potter. It's written down in history books and taught as a curriculum at most wizarding institutions. It's hard not to hear about his daring deeds against Lord Voldemort, how he took down the Death Eaters and Pureblood supremacy with the help of his friends. What most people tend to overlook is how his family came about. The man married his school sweetheart, Ginny Weasley, shortly after she finished her schooling. They weren't in any big rush to have kids, knowing full-well that any children they had would be subject to being in the public eye. The man and his wife, however, couldn't hold off forever, and eventually gave birth to Verona.

The girl was rather potent in her magic right from the beginning. It was to be expected, given who her parents were. It wasn't any surprise that she'd garnered quite a mouth on her - her first word was "no," after all. The girl grew into a rather sassy young woman who took to breaking the rules and exhausting her parents well into adolescence. She took to Quidditch almost immediately as well. When it came time for her to be Sorted into Hogwarts, she was immediately placed into Gryffindor - the hat barely grazed her head before booming it out.

Like her mother, she became a Chaser relatively quickly, though not nearly as quickly as her father. The girl turned down any and all opportunities to be in any sort of leadership position, not having any desire to hold a prefect position or a Quidditch captain position. It wasn't fun for her, having to lead. The girl's grades started slipping in her third year in most classes, causing disappointment within the family. Verona began to resent the pressure placed upon her shoulders by both her parents and those around her. She was a Potter, but, to her, that shouldn't matter. The older she got, the more rules she began to break. In her sixth year, she became an unregistered Animagus, and has been using that to sneak off at night. In her final year, she wants nothing more than to pursue Quidditch as a career, though her love for Transfiguration is pulling her elsewhere.
