MADISON PORTER
BEHIND THE CHARACTER
NAME :: Amber
AGE :: 17
EXPERIENCE :: 3 years
GENERAL
FULL NAME :: Madison Emily Grace Porter
AGE :: 17
GENDER :: Female
YEAR/OCCUPATION :: Seventh
HOUSE :: ---
APPEARANCE&&PERSONLAITY
DESCRIPTION ::
Much like the rest of her family, Madison has dirty-blonde curls for hair. Even though she really doesn't like it, she's gotten used to it during her seventeen years of life. Sometimes she thinks about changing the color of her hair or trying new hairstyles, but she never gets around to it. Besides, she likes it when people stop her and ask if she's related to so-and-so. It only reminds her how well-remembered her family is in the minds of people.
Only some people in her family have blue eyes, her grandmother among them. Madison is also one of the lucky devils who got blue eyes. Her eyes are not dark, but they're not light, either. Her eyes are oftentimes described as the color of sapphires. But they don't sparkle or have that same shine that an actual sapphire does. She is glad, too, or else she would receive more attention than she wants.
She has a full set of lips, but they're not too wide or too full. They are of an average side, matching with the rest of the aspects of her face. Sometimes she'll wear a bit of lipstick, but it's never a lot, and it's never dark. Her full lips are from her father's side of the family, since her mother's family has little to no lip at all.
Her entire face is soft and young in appearance. It is ovular in shape, with the exception of her chin, which is slightly humped - a cleft chin. Her eyes are almost shaped like a cat's eyes and give her the appearance of an innocent but very guilt cat. She's one of those seemingly innocent girls who isn't really innocent at all.
Madison is tall and thin. She is 5'11" without shoes and weighs very little. Her parents oftentimes say that she is skin and bones, mostly because she probably is. She has eaten nothing but fruits and vegetables since having decided that she wanted to be a vegetarian, in an attempt to minimize the amount of animal cruelty in the world (eg. Eating animals). Her legs are long and slender and quite skinny. She has few curves at all. Her hips and chest are nonexistent. Her butt is visible but not at all large.
When it comes to clothes, Madison wears whatever she feels comfortable wearing. She usually wears Muggles clothes since they are more comfortable than any witch's robes. She likes wearing pants and skirts, shirts and dresses--whatever she's in the mood to wear. Sometimes she will mix and match colors and styles, just to create something for herself. Besides, she likes being different.
As far as piercing and tattoos go, Madison has a few of each. Her ears are pierced in the regular spot, and she tends to wear hoop earrings. Occasionally she will wear simple earrings. When it comes to her tattoos, she has two. One of her tattoos is on her left foot, and it's a heart. There is one on her right wrist reading 'believe'.
PLAYED BY :: Taylor Swift
PERSONALITY ::
Many people say that Madison got her mother's looks but most of her father's personality. Not many people see this as a bad trait to have, though, because her father has a delightful personality that is easygoing and easy to get along with. She did get some of her mother's personality traits, but it is only to balance her out.
LOUD;;
Much like her father, Madison has the tendency to be very loud and obnoxious. Sometimes she gets to the point where she annoys people. But she knows when enough is enough and stops when she reaches that point, much like her father. Very rarely will she get too annoying obnoxious or too annoyingly loud. She knows better than that, because her parents taught her manners.
QUIET;;
From her mother, she received a quiet disposition. She is not quiet all the time like her mother, but she is only quiet around people she doesn't know all that well. When she gets to know you, she opens up and will let herself be heard. She is also quiet when she is in classes trying to pay attention; she knows better than to be disrespectful to a professor while he/she is trying to teach.
FRIENDLY;;
Both of her parents are friendly, but her father is a complete extrovert. Madison takes mostly after her mother, preferring to carefully talk to people and make friends that way. She likes trying to ease her way into a friendship, that way she doesn’t seem crazy in her actions. She enjoys trying to talk to people and make friends, even though she isn't all that great at starting conversations.
RESPECTFUL;;
Her parents taught her to be respectful of anyone and everyone, even if they were being rude to her. They mostly taught her this on account of the way her aunt had turned out. Treat others the way you want to be treated, is what they always told her. And because she doesn't want to "turn out like Aunt Carolyn," she tries to obey the golden rule and obey her parents. Besides, she isn't a really rude person unless she absolutely needs to be.
STUBBORN;;
She says she doesn't like stubborn people, but she is among the group of stubborn people. She is determined and persistent and does not like to let people tell her what to do. She is independent and oftentimes goes against what other people say to have it better for herself. She is not one to be pushed around, and she will not allow herself to be pushed around. For that reason, she tends to be a slight rebel and very defiant, mostly against her parents who think they will always be in charge of her.
QUICK TEMPER;;
Like many women, Madison has a quick temper. She is sometimes easily angered and will not stop herself from becoming angry with those around her. Sometimes she will allow her fire to burn those around her, even if they are not the cause of her bitchiness. She oftentimes feels bad about it, simply because she knows that she can control herself better in tough situations. But she doesn't always apologize for being the way she is turning her anger tantrums.
IMPATIENT;;
Madison hates waiting. When she has to wait, she tries to find thing to occupy her time, most of which consist of staring at a clock every few seconds. She gets fidgety when she waits and oftentimes does things that annoy other people, like tap her fingers on the table, pop bubbles while chewing gum, or hum random tunes that no one has ever heard. She doesn't mean to be annoying, but she can't help it. As they say: Patience is a virtue.
INTELLIGENT;;
She is not the sharpest tool in the shed, but she's not dumb either. She's smart in her own way and about the things she knows best. She can't tell you when Hogwarts was created or anything about stuff that really matters, except perhaps charms. She just makes it a priority to know things that interest her, and magic isn't really one of them. When it comes time to do things in school, she does them at an average level. She doesn’t make perfect grades, but her grades are not poor. Suffice it to say that she gets by just fine, with barely anything left over to keep her afloat.

LIFE&&HISTORY
HISTORY ::
July 1. That is the day on which Madison Emily Grace Porter was brought into the world and welcomed by her grandparents, parents, and siblings. Some of her aunts and uncles were even present, all but one--Carolyn. But that didn't matter. It was expected. Besides, the family was large enough and loving enough to welcome her into the world without a self-centered bitch of an aunt.
As a child, Madison was very adventurous and loved to run around the house, chasing the family pets and whining to play with her older siblings and parents when they were home from work. The family was close and loved spending time together, especially when it involved dear Madison dancing around or doing the usual cute child things that could be expected. She would go outside and play with the bluebirds in the yard and bark at the neighbor's cat, just because it was funny when the cat would run off, scared, and hide beneath the porch.
It was at the age of nine that she started to show magical abilities. Her parents tried to keep her inside the house afterwards, because she had a lot of trouble trying to control it, probably because she never wanted to control it. She thought it was funny lifting things just by looking at them and concentrating hard.
She had grown, mentally, emotionally, and physically. By the time she was ten, she was almost as tall as her teenage siblings, and she had the smarts that many of them had when it came to common sense things. Her parents were incredibly proud of her, surprised that she had been able to pick up on things so quickly.
Her parents, both having been alumni of Hogwarts School of Witchcraft and Wizardry, had no doubts in their minds that their daughter would be accepted into the magical school. When she received her letter, there was no question about whether or not it was fake or whether or not it was some sort of joke. They immediately went off to Diagon Alley and got her things. And from there, the magical part of her life started, at least the part that takes place during school.
At school, Madison went around and made some friends and some enemies. She even had a few lovers in her life by the time she was in her third year, but she never really knew what love was. She tried to keep up with her studies and went to the library a lot, but her most common place to be was outside on the grounds, especially when it was raining. Even though she kept up with her studies, she didn't get the best grades or even near the best grades. Her grades were average, though she tried her hardest to do the best she could. Despite her parents' slight disappointment in the lowness of her grades, they were still proud. At least she was trying.
