| Bio: |  Character Information Name of character you are applying for: : Birthday: July 13th, 1973 PB: Nora Zehetner Wand: 12 ¾” Fig with Demiguise Hair core House at Hogwarts: Hufflepuff Family Parents: Andromeda (Black) and Ted Tonks Siblings: None Family interactions (how does your character get along with his/her family members?): Tonks has always maintained a good relationship with her parents, although she utterly detested the name Nymphadora of which her mother cursed her with. So instead her parents called her Dora, when she refused to answer to Nymphadora. She took after her father, preferring a little disorder and mess to fanatical cleanliness. Her desire to be open to the moment tends to outweighs her need to be organized. So, she was her father’s child. She had a lot of problems with her mother, going through the typical teenage mischief stage and even upon being an adult still had many arguments with Andromeda. But in the end she loves her parents. Occupation: Auror Residence: None Financial status: N/A Political views: Blood Status: Halfblood Sexuality: Straight. Though she hasn’t really had time for guys. Physical description Height: 5’5 Weight: 8.6 stones Distinguishing marks: Metamorphmagus Give us a description of your character's appearance: Tonks is a pretty young woman with a heart-shaped face. Her hair changes color at will, but is often a bubble-gum pink or bright purple. She usually keeps it short and spikey, but loves playing with it’s length and texture. Her eyes, though dark, sparkle with thought and mischief. She has battle scars that she proudly displays on her arms and legs. As a Metamorphmagus, Tonks can assume many different appearances, and is all too glad to do so when needed or wanted. Give us a description of your character's personality : For Tonks, her personality and mood is reflected in her appearance. She’d be the kind of person who ‘wears their heart on their sleeve.’ She is outgoing, fun, and genuinely likes people. She has a great sense of humor and takes life with stride. She works hard but has fun doing so. It’s possible to get things done and have fun at the same time! As a mate she’s warm, affectionate and disconcertingly spontaneous. However, her attention span in relationships can be short; she’s easily intrigued and distracted by new friends and acquaintances, forgetting about the older ones for long stretches at a time. Also, she has a skewed outlook on romantic relationships as most men only like her because she can change her look to their fantasy. She hates that. Though, that’s why she fell so hard for Lupin originally; he was the first man to not want her to be anything else but herself. Same with her brief relationship Charlie. Tonks is energized by being around people; sometimes having real difficulty being alone on a regular basis. She loves to tell stories and make the people around her happy. She can be intellectual, serious, and all business for a while, but whenever she gets the chance, she switches into a wild child. Sometimes even appearing intoxicated on her bouncier portion of her personality. She is notoriously clumsy, and though she doesn’t mean to be she just gets distracted sometimes. Or a lot of the time. She uses common sense as her major form of problem solving. When a question is asked she doesn’t go from A to B to C, she immediately goes from A to C. Just go with what makes sense. Why dwell on all the minor stuff. She wants to use her talents, make a difference, and have autonomy. Friends are so important to her and she always has good intentions. She’ll do whatever she can do to hold on to them, but often doesn’t get around to writing or calling. Which she’s been meaning to do since she left. They should know that if they create a friendship with her, then the friendship is going to be intense and loyal and she will be there for them when they really need her. (This last mistake was the first time, she had failed to do so and it tears her up inside.) Tonks is very enthusiastic about many different things and very romantic. She has a child-like quality and likes to get others roped into that too. Fun is a feeling of satisfaction as opposed to just an activity; the feeling of being able to smile all the time and get others to smile. What’s fun is watching other people find out they can really do something they otherwise never thought of themselves as capable of doing. She is quite stubborn and gets very annoyed when people jump her for not doing things their way, but she often doesn’t defend herself because she fears losing control. (Fears becoming like her Aunt Bellatrix.) She’d rather be in control when she talks to them about the situation. They don’t know what effect they’re having and it tears her up inside. It makes her crazy if she is in conflict with someone who wants to walk away and she needs to engage with them until they work it out. She needs contact—emotional, intellectual, just words—for fun and connection. Hasty decisions based on deeply felt values may boil over with unpredictable results.  History As a child, she was 'into everything.' Her natural curiosity resulted in her getting into trouble often and a lack of “proper” authoritative respect. She often spent long periods of time devising new and original --- but not necessarily practical --- languages, plays, and scenarios. She loved playacting and dreaming and general mischief. She still does. By the time she was old enough to walk, she’d morphed for the first time to scare the pet cat. Her parents were astonished at her new found ability and taught her the dangers and upside of this talent. She looked up to her cousin Sirius since she was small. He was the only one who truly paid her any mind that was a blood relation. And even though she was so young, she found friends in Sirius and the rest of the marauders when they came around. It killed her when Sirius was put away in Azkaban and she was severely confused on why he would do such at thing. While at Hogwarts Tonks would spend any spare second changing her appearance for the bemusement of her fellow students. This often got her in trouble. Despite all of that she managed to maintain good grades; being briefly considered for prefect though her lack of control made that an impossible dream. It was then that she decided to go for being an Auror, then she’d have the ability to do as she pleased and make a difference in people’s lives. Undergoing three years of Auror training under the tutelage of Alastor Moody, Tonks' natural metamorphic abilities allowed her to easily pass the Concealment and Disguise portion of the training. However, her utter clumsiness made it hard to pass the Stealth and Tracking portion of the course. She often came home bruised from falling or toppling something over onto her. But it wasn’t long until she qualified as a full Auror, though (in 1994). In 1995, Tonks joined the second Order of the Phoenix and helped protect Harry.
