15 January 1st. 2005 STUDENT HOGWARTS/RAVENCLAW/5TH PUREBLOOD LONDON
| PERSONALITY:
Most people would probably consider Stella to be sort of a wall flower. If you catch her between classes, she will most likely be found people watching from a corner some where. Watching people when they don't realize it is an easy way to pass the time. If she isn't watching her peers, she probably has her nose in a book out on the grounds or in the library. If she can find a quiet setting to clear her mind then she considers it her favorite spot at school. It isn't that she has an aversion to people or making friends, she tends to be overwhelmed easy. The thought of constant questions and people talking can give her a migraine for days. What doesn't give her a migraine? Books. Friendly is in her wheel of personality. It takes up a large part of it but actually making friends with said friendliness doesn't. Stella tends to be on the awkward side that discourages herself from branching out far. The few friends she does have were made a long time ago and are sort of stuck with her? Her hope is to branch out of that at some point before graduation, even if she has to be dragged.
ASPIRATION:
Does survival count? Since losing her Mother, Stella has a sour feeling when it comes to dying of old age. It hasn't made her a hypochondriac but it has made her somewhat bitter. Her assumption is that she is going to pass the same way her Mother did, from an incurable sickness. It has given her the whole why bother outlook on life. Why go above and beyond if she isn't going to live a life full enough to do much with? That sort of mentality will linger for the next year or so until she decides to become a healer. Then her aspiration will turn into finding a cure for what killed her Mother as well as any other diseases listed as incurable. That sort of aspiration will rise above a family. Some where in her life she'd probably aspire to be a wife and mother some day but for a while she'd want to be married to her work. Until she felt 'worthy' of a family. If she hasn't done anything to make her worthy why would she seek it out? Maybe she'd be lucky enough to have someone come along and show her she doesn't have to be worthy outside of being herself.

FAMILY MEMBERS. | Mother: Mary Macaroy - deceased Father: Henry Macaroy Sister: Serenity Macaroy |
CHILDHOOD. | Stella was born the first child to Henry and Mary Macaroy. It was freezing outside and the middle of a blizzard which almost had her being delivered into the snow. If she had been, her parents would have made sure to find a way to keep her warm. They had tried to conceive her for years after they were married, ultimately thinking they wouldn't be blessed with a baby. In nearly every way, they treated her as if she were a miracle. Spoiled was easily the first word to describe her but brat never followed after. No, Stella remained sweet. When she was three her parents were once more blessed with a child, another little girl they named Serenity. Once her sister could walk and talk was when the fighting started and never really stopped. The girls were always fighting and arguing over the smallest of things. Serenity gave the definition for second child in more ways than one. When Stella received her letter for Hogwarts she couldn't wait to get away. To enjoy the few years she'd have before Serenity came barreling in. It had been difficult to get attention from her parents when their hands were so full with her younger sister.

SCHOOL YEARS. | During her first year at Hogwarts, Stella spent so much time enjoying the peace that came with being away from her sister that she didn't focus on being home sick. She instead, spent her time enjoying the peace and quiet the school offered her. The library became the first place she bonded with and also the first place she explored. Without going anywhere that would get her in trouble, she explored most of the back shelves and secret rooms she could find. When the term ended it seemed she'd managed to find all of the best study spots as well as hideaways. One of the hideaways was really a trick by peeves. He made her lose her favorite book. It was too embarrassing to tell on the creature so instead she just took the loss and secretly cursed him under her breath any time she saw him. Once she managed to swat him with a paper.
Second year was when she first attempted to really branch out and make friends. Outside of one girl she'd grown up with, Stella hadn't made any friends her first year. What started off as a hopeful year in the friendship category quickly turned into disappointment. Her palms would grow sweaty and any awkward word she could sputter out was going to spew out. So, instead of friendship she continued to focus on her school work.
Third year went about the same as her Second year had. The only difference? Serenity. Her sister had been sorted into Ravenclaw as well. Meaning they were back to fighting constantly. They had ended up getting detention every other weeks for their fighting getting on the Head Boy and Girls nerves. The discomfort of annoying her classmates only made Stella want to cower away into her holes even more. Mid way into Third year was when their Mother became ill. Both parents made sure the girls stayed in school, thinking that was more important than dealing with the stress of being home.
Right before Fourth year began, their Mother passed. The illness had taken her far quicker than anyone thought it would. Any hopes of branching out for new friends had dwindled to nothing. Even her grades had started slipping. Thankfully they didn't drop enough for her to fail but it didn't go unnoticed. While Serenity went home during holidays at school, Stella had chosen to stay at school and bask in the solitude. During the summer holiday before Fifth year, Stella chose to stay with her Grandmother instead of going home. It felt too odd to be there without her Mother.

HERERP SAMPLE (200 words min.)
did she change her hair? it looks nice. maybe i should mention it. no, just silently compliment her. maybe if she talks to me before its too late to notice, i can mention it then.
stella eyed the fellow sixth years hair as she leaned against the column in the corridor. once the girl was out of view, her eyes trailed along to the next student to catch her eye. really, she should have already moved to head to transfiguration but people watching always distracting her. most of the students she knew, weather from her own time spent at school or from her younger sisters time. outside of faces, stella had found a way to pick up on the students based off how they made her feel.
every time she was in the corridor between classes, her fingertips twitched which usually traveled up to her face. she could feel each of them as they traveled around her to their classes. where some were merely empathetic, she was a true empath. she felt things so deeply from someone it could either make or ruin her day. today it seemed her fellow classmates were more glowy than soul sucking.
taking a peek at her watch, she figured it was time to stop watching and start walking. pushing off the column she started heading toward the class. she didn't make it all that far until she realized she'd left part of her homework on her bedside table. with a groan, she turned around to head back that direction. only, she hadn't paid enough attention and ran smack into someone. "Agh!" she groaned in surprise.
