EYE COLOUR: hazel, varies slightly in different lights
HEIGHT: 5'8"
WEIGHT: 136
BODY TYPE: curvy
VOICE: melodic, though there's a different tone to it some get, and she lets it fully out when she's ticked or being sadistic
PERSONAL STYLE: clean, sophisticated
GENERAL DESCRIPTION: Sauntering down the street, Libra is the girl who most take her for being older - or younger depending on her clothing - than she really is. She carries herself with a sense of dignity and poise (and rationality). Her height doesn't bother her, and she tends to stick to things she knows best, which is magic, horses, and music. Libra doesn't know much about the wizarding world, except when she was accepted into Beauxbatons when she was 11.
Her stubborn, obnoxious, poofy, gorgeous dark brown hair gets on her nerves some days. Other days though, it's her best friend if it actually does what she wants it to do. With her thinness, she tends to hide it with her hair done up nicely, drawing attention to her "hard" features her adopted brothers once called them. She'll go to great lengths to make sure that it isn't poofy when she wants it neat, or isn't flat when she wants it up. With her dark hair out of her family of lighter-colored parents, she knows she's a bit of a black sheep.
Libra is the type of girl who enjoys looking sharp. Her attire is never run-down, unless she's out working in the stables all day, and will just wear a pair of jeans and maybe a tank-top (having been raised by muggles, she is more in tune with muggle things). Otherwise, Libra wouldn't be caught dead without having something of high-price on her body, whether it be earrings or a necklace. Most of the time though, Libra likes to keep herself clean, and will only get dirty if she must, but will avoid it if she can.
Her eyes, are the favorite part about herself. Sometimes she has a spell on them that keep them a lighter color than their natural lighter-brown. She despises how her eyes are dark, as welll as her hair, she hates being normal, and can usually be seen with lighter eyes, and maybe a streak of a different color in her hair with a potion or two. Her features are hard, though they can be soft once in awhile if she works at it. She knows what to do when she wants something, but it usually only works on her parents.

CHARACTER DISLIKES: lightning , deep water , muggleborns even though she feels a tad hypocritical , snakes , muskrats she never has , the color dark red reminds her of blood , not getting her way , arrogant purebloods who don't seem to see the war that's going on , the thought of her parents finding out how she really acts , not saying spells correctly and gets something else done , being put down , alcohol in any way shape or form
GOALS:
- Become a better witch
- Join the Dark Lord
BOGGART: Actually, though she'll never admit this, is to drown. Li will actually wake up in the middle of the night after having a nightmare about drowning, without having anyone around to help her. She did "drown" when she was younger, and hasn't been the same around water since. Yes though, she can take showers and baths, and shallow ends of pools, but otherwise, she'll stay on land.
PATRONUS: Her best memory was when her parents first bought her, her first pony. It was a Shetland Pony when she was 6, and she named it Tinkerbell after the character in Peter Pan. The pony and she immediately became decent friends, and she still has the old pony to this day, having used magic to keep it alive. Though she will never forget the first day she got her very own horse and had to take care of it.
DEMENTOR: Her drowning and her parents' deaths. She was out swimming in the ocean off the coast of Spain, and a wave caught her, when she was 10, off-guard. Immediately, she went under, and the rip tide caught her legs. The young girl was under water for three minutes, and she hardly remembers anything but the fear and panic from the water, so she stays away from it now, after having woken up in a hospital awhile later.
AMORENTIA:
- horses
- flowers
- new car
BASIC PERSONALITY: sadistic , sweet (to animals usually) , calculating , deceptive

BIOGRAPHY:
As it is with many people, I don't really remember much of my childhood. I keep it safe though, in a safe place where I look to what I can vaguely remember. I was adopted by a lovely couple (they told me I was adopted when I was 16), William and Eline McComber, though Eline couldn't have anymore children after her first-born son, Anthony, they took me in. I'm told they don't know where I'm from, so I just live with that, and have been since I was a child. They took me in, and instead of giving me their last name, Eline decided to give me her maiden name, Leferre, which is French.
Raised in Paris, France with Anthony, I got along with him, though early as a toddler, I would occasionally show my dominant personality. I would hit him into getting what I want, usually either him giving me a toy, or getting my mom and dad to buy me something. Anthony and I - otherwise were good friends, he was three years older than me, giving him a good advantage over my - I should say - small form back before I hit puberty when I was 12. Everyday we'd greet our dad when he arrived home from work, he was a lawyer, and our mom a nurse, who was taking time off to raise us. I enjoyed her company, helping me with my clothing when I couldn't, and more.
One spring, when I was just about to turn 6, I remember this vividly, my father asked me to come outside. Putting down my dolls, I bounce outside, just to see a small trailer attached to the back of his car! Thrilled, I immediately screamed and hugged him, causing a commotion from the few neighbors we had, since we had a stable behind our house, and some acres for horses. Opening the trailer, I found my best birthday present, a sandy-colored Shetland mare. She was adorable! With my ribbons in my dark hair, I happily bounced in to hug her. The mare nickered softly, and toyed with my long hair I refused to have cut. I quickly befriended her, feeding her everyday, and even though she was the smallest horse of our "herd," I cared for her when she needed it, and made sure that none of the other horses were mocking her. Boy - was I naive.
I soon grew, and when I was 10, we went on a trip to Spain for a week. I left Tinkerbell, my Shetland safely locked up in her stall, while our stablehand remained behind to take care of our animals. I was anxious the whole way there, on the plane, while Anthony kept pestering me, I just relaxed, enjoying our new car Daddy had bought for us, and I planned on getting a new one when I was old enough, like Anthony had said he was going to get when he could drive - a new car. Jealousy flooded my veins, and I asked, "Daddy, will I get a new car?" Both Mommy and Daddy had looked at each other, then back to me and Daddy had responded most likely, depending on my grades. I eagerly sat back down, while we reached our destination by car, a lovely beach that I remember quite clearly. Out in the water, I dove under to fish for a shell I had dropped, ignoring my mother's yells for me to come in before the rip tide caught me. That was a stupid move on my part. I got caught, and went under. I don't remember much, until I woke up in a hospital awhile later, about an hour.
Afterwards, I felt the fear and panic, and refused to return to the beach. Reluctantly, we headed back home, and that's when I realized how much control I had. I kept this epiphany to myself, while I nurtured it, till then, an owl appeared randomly, and a letter with my name on it appeared. Surprisingly, it was from a place called Beauxbatons, and so, I opened it with Mommy and Daddy nearby, Anthony hovering over my shoulder too. I...it said I, I, Libra LeFerre was a witch. Right - I couldn't do anything! Sure, I had been smarter than some of my peers, though I quickly demanded in French what was going on, till Mommy explained, I'd need to learn English if I was to go to this place.
Even though I was ticked, the next fall, I was sent to a "boarding school for the gifted." With my suitcase packed, I was on my way to this place called Beauxbatons. Following directions, I obeyed my parents, and hugged Anthony and my parents good-bye. After I got to this palace, stunned, I felt the panic sneak up on me, and nearby, a wall cracked. The wall shuddered, before a teacher came up and calmed my nerves. I immediately asked what was going on, and that's when I knew - this was real, and I couldn't escape.
During school though, I ventured out, and witnessed a duel between two opponents. Either way, I immediately went to see. I still regret it, I saw someone lose their life right in front of me. Either way, I managed to get away, just as a mark appeared in the sky, with a skull and snake. I didn't know what it was at the time, but either way, I haven't spoken of that since, haven't really worried about this, "Death Eater" in Paris.
When I was 13, I became the "Queen" of Beauxbatons, and ruled it with an iron fist. I ignored my peers, and learning English on top of my native tongue, French, I soon pursued the dream of becoming a teacher either at Beauxbatons, or a place I heard of a lot, Hogwarts in England. I returned home after my true colors began to shine even brighter - but - I couldn't let my parents know. Working on it all the way home, I managed to make sure my parents were oblivious to what I really was. Would they accept me? They had for the past two years I'd been going to Beauxbatons, though they believed it was an interesting school, Mommy still seemed worried over me, like she always was.
While I tended to Tinkerbell, I was 15, while I began to experiment with potions more at school. After almost blowing my head off, I quickly dropped that and moved onto magical creatures. My favorites were and still are, thestrals and unicorns. They are so - majestic, and mostly misunderstood. I plan to have my own farm someday with magical creatures, unicrons, hippogriffs, thestrals, and more if possible. Though, as I matured, I quickly began to have a growing interest not only in animals, but in power. Neither my mom nor dad were as persuasive as I was. I snaked out of getting out of trouble, and blaming Anthony, and sometimes got Anthony to go what I wanted him to. I was very spoiled, till Beauxbatons managed to straighten me out - somewhat - and so they think.
But, 15 - I'll never forget it. I heard about something happening up on England, and my parents ever so interested what I had to say - when they were around, announced that we were moving. Effing moving. Where? London, England, of course. Outraged, I screamed, and the lightbulbs in our house shattered, I ducked and darted to my room, afraid if they would be angry with me. Thankfully, they weren't - though I did have to replace all the bulbs, and they moved us within the next two months.
Needless to say, I hadn't planned on that, therefore I "dropped out" of Beauxbatons, and hadn't planned on going back. I was qualified as far as I was concerned, but soon - Hogwarts took me in. I was placed into Slytherin, and the Sorting Hat was odd - I'll never forget what he said. He said I have a forgotten bloodline, and the Headmaster got antsy then. What-ever that meant, I still don't even know what that means to this day. Upon being placed in Slytherin, they asked who my parents were, and I promptly replied Eline and William McComber, though didn't say if they were pureblood or not. Either way, none of the Slytherins treated me very well. Lonely, I did manage to find comfort in some Gryffindors, Ravenclaws and Hufflepuffs. Branded a "traitor," I;m finishing schooling in Hogwarts.
Afterwards, I aim to get magical creatures, and with my - exceptional - skills in the Dark Arts, I find it amusing that I'm not "suppose" to use any of the Unforgiveable Curses on people. Why not? I find them amusing, though I like the Imperious Curse the best - do I find something wrong with that? I don't, but now I do, after I used it on my brother accidentally when I had just turned 17 (when I could use magic), and have regretted it since. Anthony graduated from a university, and moved on, while I remain with my parents. Eline and William are good to me, I started calling them that after they were killed.
Yes - that's right, just a few months ago. I was heading home after finding a flat I could stay at while I get things rounded up to join the Dark Lord or start a Magical Creatures care business or something of the sort. As a muggleborn, I found it odd - my parents had had lighter hair, though my grandparents had darker hair, that must be why. Anyway, I return home, just to find a person in a black cloak pointing a wand at my mother, my father already on the floor. Immediately, I whip out my own wand, and utter the Crutacius, but the other wizard managed to bind me with magic, then knock me out, and when I awoke - both my parents were gone. Sobbing, I called the cops, but they couldn't figure out how my parents had died. Hiding my wand, I managed to keep them from searching my house, afraid they'd find my Great Horned Owl, Jasper, and my witch belongings. They did search our barn, startling my poor old Tink, and left.
Afterwards, my aunt Reva took me in, she's a witch, and therefore teaches me things that she thinks I should know. Everyday when I was home from Hogwarts, she'd help me with magic, though I wouldn't utter anything, I'd practice fighting and also studying for O.W.L.S. and other such things. She's a good friend to me, and aided me in my time, and now time with the lost of my parents, which I'm still a bit sore about.
Now - I plan on making that person pay who killed my parents, though I know it's futile. In their will, they left me a note, telling me I had been given to them, mostly adopted as an infant. No name, just that I had been adopted. I keep that letter, and another letter they left me, telling me they loved me, and other things. Anthony and I remain in touch, while I plan on moving in with him near Wiltshire someday, though there's a mansion there, and I plan on owning a mansion someday.
