Name : Anna Wilcox
Gender : Female
Age : 15
Year : Sixth
House : Gryffindor
Ethnicity : Half Italian / Half English
Hair/Eye Color : She eyes are grayish blue in color. She has dark brown hair, that at times can appear black, or medium brown - depending on the light. Her hair reaches just past her shoulders, and is in naturally gentle, bouncy waves.
Pet : She has a rather large barn owl male whom she extremely cares for by the name of Tyto (Pronounced [Toe-toe]). He is about six years old - a little over - and she obtained him on the 30th of August the summer before her first year began - two days before it, to be specific.
Home Life : Anna lives with her father, Bruce, and mother, Clarice, in London in a rather humble house. It is just big enough for the three of them, they need not more room. Her parents are rather verbal people. While they are happily married, they tend to have rows often. As such, when provoked, Anna can be quite loud. She has, since realizing that not everyone normally yells loud enough to wake the dead, learned to control the volume of her voice.
Her house has a relatively happy atmosphere. Her mother is often busy at her job, and rarely comes home. As I said before, her parents are happy together, but perhaps that is because they rarely see each other. When on holiday in London, her mother is gone before she wakes up and is not yet present when she goes to sleep. And Anna is a night owl, she can stay up late should the need arise. As such, her father is left with the task of taking care of her. He works for Puddlemere United. He plays Quidditch professionally. Some say he might very well be the best chaser they've ever seen. She takes pride in her father. Not so much in her muggle mother, however. She can scarcely remember her name. As far as Anna is considered, she has no Mother. It is only her father and she in that house on 1246, Sterling Avenue.
Diving deeper : For the longest time, the entirety of her first three years at Hogwarts, she could not understand why she was placed in Gryffindor. Gryffindors were known for their courage and bravery, and their willingness to stand up for what was right. What had she done to deserve to be in such a noble house? Her father was in Gryffindor, yes, but look at all he did! Bruce was noble. He stopped her mother from killing her.
She used to be a very kind, open, person. Then she went to kindergarten. She met this girl, Tashina Andrade, and she bullied her to no end. Both physically and mentally. She proved that old saying. The scars on her arms, legs, and cheeks healed. But the ones over her heart, they might never go away. She has long since recovered from what Tashina did to her, but is not quite herself. Sometimes she wonders who "herself" is. But, to this day, she can not figure out what she did to Tashina to make her so angry.
As a result, she has low self-confidence.
All in all, she is a kind, giving person who will help anyone in peril. She is a fiercely loyal friend, and she will stand up for what she believes to be right. While she is a proud, meticulous student, she has gotten in her share of trouble. Detention and she are not strangers. But neither are they good chums. She may come off as a bit of a "tough girl", and, truly so is she a tough one, strong-willed and what not, but she has a soft spot. You just have to look hard enough to find it.
Taking a closer look : Anna was one of the few that did not groan at the assigned classwork; she actually enjoyed learning - scary, huh? She smirked when she heard the other groans of the students - in particular the ones of Huffelpuff House. 'Pssh. I thought Hufflepuff was supposed to like hard work.' She thought to herself slyly, busily copying down the notes from the board. 'Then again, this isn't exactly hard, is it?' She then went to read her textbook, and was thoroughly fascinated with it. Not only did she learn a new word or two that she would surely have committed to memory by the end of the day, but the text itself was fascinating.
When the bell rang, she was almost sad. Almost. She deposited her book into her rucksack, as well as her quill and a bottle of ink with a cap - thank God for that cap - and took off to the door. She was so intent on her studies that she didn't see Dante outside the window, apparently trying to gain her attention. What was he thinking? Floating on his broom in between classes? And all to say hi to her. He could do that later, during Defense. Scratching her arm idly, she made her way to the Charms corridor. Her heart warmed at the thought of seeing Professor Flitwick. Flitwick was her favorite professor, no question. The little wizard had won her heart as much as he could've in the unique relationship a teacher and student had.
Humming merrily, she made her way into the classroom and took a seat in the very front row, attentive to Flitwick's every word.

You have been Accepted
to Hogwarts School of Witchcraft and Wizardry.
xDD You deserve a standing ovation. This profile is phenomenal. I can't
decide which part I love more; the endless details, her in depth homelife,
the small cliffhanger you provided (Anna being saved by Bruce from
Clarice) or your roleplay section. All in all, I'm so very glad that you've
joined our roleplay. I can only see it improving with your involvement.
I can't wait to get roleplaying with you, myself!
