APPEARANCE&&PERSONLAITY
DESCRIPTION ::
Standing at around 5'5 she's tiny, but she knows a few people that are shorter than her. But don't think that she isn't fierce and can't take care of herself. Though she may be vertically challenged, she doesn’t let her height give herself a disadvantage. She can be very intimidating even if she has to look up and glare at her opposition. Keeping her posture upright, standing tall to add to her height a little, she also has a bit of attitude in her walk. It’s as if she’s always confident, even if she isn’t sometimes.
And blonde's have all the fun? Ha, never. Being a brunette she doesn't let that saying get to her at all. In fact she's sure she has even more fun than all those fake dyed slutty blondes out there. Never has she dyed her hair and never will she. Of course she prefers it longer, but there have been a few times where she has cut it very short just because she needed some sort of change.
She's slender, though she may be tiny and thin that doesn't mean she doesn't have any muscle whatsoever. She does have some muscle but she just doesn't play sports or anything. Quidditch is interesting to her but she doesn't enjoy playing it. She would rather watch it more than anything else.
She likes what's comfortable. Really if it doesn't feel right for her than she won't wear it. Because of this she's very picky about clothes, she tells people not to buy her clothes unless they know it's exactly what she would wear. Otherwise she feels terrible that she won't wear it but somebody bought something for her. Her clothes for just around the town mainly consist of jeans and a cute top, though sometimes in the summer or on a warmer day she'll wear a dress but nothing ever too short. For formal occasions, she'll put her hair up or curl it, but she hates being over the top and being too formal also. Since she's only 5'5, she does wear heels most of the time, she prefers to be a little taller but if she's just around the house or in the dorms she'll usually just have socks on.
PLAYED BY :: Ashley Greene
PERSONALITY ::
To some people she could be called a bitch, really she’s just being truthful. There’s nothing she values more then the truth, though that is a bit hypocritical of her since she does seem to be a pro at lying. Well I suppose not everyone can be perfect, right? Though she tries to be as good as she can be, she just can’t help being somewhat bad sometimes. Never is she bad like in plotting against people or anything like that. No, that’s just childish...though she has done it. But she’s bad in the sense that she’ll say small little things that are subtle just to annoy somebody. If she thinks something is wrong she won’t say it outright and have somebody do something about it unless it’s something that really bugs her. If it’s something wrong with somebody else she’ll be sweet most of the time and find ways to get back at them for bugging her so much. Whether it’s by doing specific things they hate and pretending to be clueless or just saying things that could be hinting at them.
Of course she can be very sweet at times. So sweet that sometimes people think of her as a little weak. But she isn’t one to cry during those chick flicks or anything like that. The only time she really cries is when she has to talk about tender issues of her life. And even then she doesn’t fully cry, she just sort of dances around the subject and get uncomfortable. Besides that she doesn’t cry at all, not when she gets hurt, or something bad happens, usually never. This can be another thing that people see of as bitchy, but really she hates to be some of those typical girls who goes ‘awww’ at everything and cries all the time.
Her personality is outgoing, not outgoing to the point where she feels free to do or say everything though. She can be a little reserved at times but that’s only if she’s in a situation she’s never been in before and sort of needs to get used to it before being her usual sweet bubbly self. Now she’s not too bubbly that it’s annoying, she’s just sort of happy to be there in that moment and takes the best from the experience. Alright so she can be too optimistic most of the time, this does lead to a lot of disappointment, but still she has yet to really figure out what to do about it. So she just continues on her usual personality until she finds some sort of resolution to that problem. She knows she's a bit different from the rest of her family, but then again she is also quite the same as well. Though she tries not to show it, she does have a little bit of a problem with those half-bloods, she does her best to just ignore them or just attempt to be friendly but if she's around the rest of her family she can be just as horrible as they are.
When it comes to guys, she is sort of selective, that means she’ll be a bitch to all the other guys who talk to her and try and sweet-talk her. No, she hates it when guys randomly come up and hit on her. Not only does it freak her out, but also she just doesn’t want to be with a guy who just thinks she looks hot and that’s it. Maybe she’s been watching too many of those classic movies, but she still does believe that there are happy endings and she will wait to find the right guy for her. That isn’t to say she won’t date, she does date but if she doesn’t like the person or feel comfortable with them than she doesn’t let things go on. Of course when she's out she can be flirty to random guys but that's if she's in a really good mood and really has nothing to worry about. If she isn't in that kind of mood she's sort of fast about what she does so she can get in and get out of a place and not worry about people around her.

LIFE&&HISTORY
HISTORY
As a young child, she was raised like her parents had been, she never knew why the half-bloods and blood traitors were bad but she learned to loathe them just as her parents did and most of her other relatives. Never did she ask about why they were supposed to hate the others, she just did it because it was expected of her. Even today, she's just kept on following her family just because she's so used to it.
Besides that she had a reasonable childhood, she was a little monster most of the time. Spoiled, and did just about anything to get what she wanted. And most of the time she got it, she spent most of her time reading and doing her best to learn as much as she could before going to Hogwarts, she'd steal her brother's books whenever he was home so she could read more. Occasionally she would 'accidentally' try something just to see if she would do it.
She always did try to be the best one of the family, she always was devoted to her parents, mainly because if she did she got things out of it. It's quite rare that she will go against what her parents say, or stand up to them. If she ever didn't want to do anything they said, she would do it when they weren't watching. Most of the time she's agreed with her family, though there have been a few rare moments where she won't mind talking to somebody who isn't of pureblood.
Right from the start Andrea Lestrange was destined to be going to Hogwarts, it was expected of her to be in Slytherin with the rest of her family as well. Even before she got the letter everyone expected her to be like her older brother and go into Slytherin. It was a relief for her when the Sorting Hat had called out "Slytherin!" after all she didn't want to be a member of the family to be hated forever. Her first few years here have been pretty good, she doesn't consort with that many people outside of Slytherin, after all if her parents found out that she was talking and being friendly to those that weren't pureblood...well than she was sure she'd get an owl from her family sometime.

RP SAMPLE ::
from another site.she wasn't sure what to wear to this little camp out thing. she knew she wanted to look cute but she didn't want to be completely overdressed. after all she couldn't wear a dress because they were camping out...so that would be ridiculous. and she couldn't wear heels because she would go through hell all night thanks to the heels sinking. today she had spent most of her time in front of the mirror trying on clothes and mixing and matching things in order to find the perfect outfit. her grandmother had warned her it would be cold, but how cold was cold? she could tolerate slight chilliness but that was about it. was it going to be freezing? should she wear long sleeves? it was always so embarrassing to the be the one freezing to death when everyone else was nice and bundled up and was smart and wore warm clothes. she hated dressing down, she couldn't stand that she wasn't in heels and it wasn't like she had that much of an option in her closet. so she had resorted to uggs finally, how she hated those clunky plain boots. but whatever they would be warm and she wouldn't sink in the ground so that was good.
it was surprising for her to actually care about christmasy stuff but she had been listening to christmas music all day and humming it. maybe she was actually in the christmas mood thanks to this party. in fact she had even volunteered to help wrap presents since she needed to wrap chase's. it had taken forever to find his gift but she had finally found it, and she had even bought him something extra just because she saw it and it reminded her of him. of course she had spent the longest time wrapping his and making sure that everything was perfect on it. why was she so obsessed with making everything perfect for tonight? they were just friends after all. though every time she thought of him she couldn't help but smile, and every time somebody said his name she always got a bit giggly. perhaps it was because she was starting to have feelings for him, a lot of feelings actually.
after she had made sure she looked as perfect as she could be, she had decided to keep her hair down and curled it a little in order to make sure all her hair was in wavy form. checking her phone to look at the time, oh wow had she really taken that long to do all that stuff? well...at least now she knew that she looked good and had everything ready. grabbing the keys to her black bmw roadster and said a quick goodbye to her grandmother and left. earlier in the day she had packed her purse with the necessary things she would need during the night like a blanket and stuff. everything else was in the car so she didn't have to worry about it. she'd just leave it in the car until she would need it later on in the night. carefully placing chase's presents in the passenger's seat right next to her purse, she headed out towards morris meadows.
so she wasn't exactly on time, she was close to it but not on time. she didn't mind being on time, but she hated being early. even if chase was one of her good friends she didn't want to seem overly eager to see him and get there early, that would be just awkward especially since she would probably just talk about stupid stuff or something and that would just end up being embarrassing for her. there were so many 'what if' situations going on in her head right now. but she did her best to focus on the road instead of all the negatives that were trying to distract her. as she pulled into the camp area, she parked her car a little farther away so she could just walk there and her car wouldn't be in the way of anything or whatever. after all her car wasn't much of a sleeping place, it was far too small for that so she'd rather have it out of the way just in case they needed a lot of room for tents or whatever the hell was going to be out here.
taking her purse and the presents from the front seat, she hoped she would be early enough to give him his present without loads of people around to watch them. how she hated when that happened. the sweet side of her always wanted to bring something for everyone, even though she couldn't. even as she walked up to the rv, which clearly stood out amongst everything else. smiling before she even got to the door she could just anticipate how amazing it would be to see him. but then as she got to the rv and was just about to say something as she walked in the door. and what a surprise she got, the first thing she saw...chase hugging some blonde girl. wasn't that maddie or whatever? the one that constantly talked about sex in the chat or something relating to it and oh..yeah..was his ex-girlfriend? her smile faltered for a moment as she stood there, not really knowing if she should stay and continue watching this lovely little scene or if she should just leave.
but then she noticed some other girl was standing there too. how terrible, she had to observe this scene too? well at least she didn't have a crush on this guy who was currently hugging some sex obsessed chick. doing her best to smile at the girl, she tried to not look over at chase at maddie. deciding to introduce herself she said doing her best to smile and be polite,"hi i'm teagan. so um...guess i shouldn't have come this early.." oh hmm well this was awkward. or maybe she was just making this awkward, but whatever it was she wasn't happy about it. however she did her best to smile sweetly and ignore the others. and if she couldn't handle this, well the door was still open so she could always leave.
