History


A long time ago... in a galaxy far, far away.

An only child for a year and a few months, Colby was SPOILED. At a very young age, he was introduced to Star Wars, and of course, LOVED it. To this day, Colby's favorite thing is quoting lines and making Star Wars references, while getting odd looks from others.

The Muggle way of life was a big part of his childhood. Television, obviously, Star Wars, Pokemon, Sailor Moon, Pinky and the Brain. All old shows, but ALL good shows. So says Colby.

When his brother was born, Colby was excited. He loved Ian a lot, hugged him all the time and watched Star Wars with him, he even let him play with his Star Wars action figures. That was- until the day Ian bit Darth Vader's head off. From then on, it was war.

Of course he still loves his brother, although he would have to be FORCED to admit it by the use of a Jedi Mind Trick. He also feels that it is his job to take care of his other siblings, being the oldest and all.

Personality
Easily embarrassed: Mostly by his brother. The prospect of ruining a first impression kills his nerves. Being homeschooled all this time, his obsessive love of something that many wizard students have never heard of, and his bouts with asthma all add up to his little fits. But you needn't worry, they don't last long, and they're always good for a laugh.

A little bit geeky: In case you haven't noticed, Colby LOVES Star Wars. L-O-V-E. There is nothing better in the world. When he's not blathering on about it, watching it- or reading it, Colby likes to practice guitar, which he learned how to play in summer camp, and often plays to impress the girl next door, who he has a crush on.

The amazing Mr. Disappear: In short, whenever his sister Morgan and her friends are around, Colby makes himself scarce. For some reason- they all have little crushes on him. And of course, it makes his voice squeak.

A case of green thumb: Well, not technically. More, in Colby's case, his green thumb is actually a whole hand. As the son of an accomplished chef, Colby's got a little bit of natural talent when it comes to baking. Or, as he would say. he's got "mad skills." His current favorite? Strawberry Crepes with Honey Sauce.

Just a tad OCD: Oh no you DIIII'NT drop that on my floor and walk away! Colby's a neat freak- a compulsive cleaner and organizer, you name it- he's cleaned it somehow.

People pleaser: Probably his worst attribute, so he says. Most of the time- he can be led astray by the suggestions of others. He just wants the people around him to be HAPPY. Not, however, when it comes to his brother. You give Ian an inch, and he takes a MILE.

More to be added as character development continues.

Current
Colby and Ian were both accepted to Hogwarts, but, their parents wanted to keep them home, until they both got tired of the whining, and agreed to send them to the school.

Colby was sorted into Slytherin House, and is very excited to teach pretty girls about Star Wars. It's just too bad that he inherited his father's tendency to stutter when nervous, coupled with asthma attacks. Watch out ladies.

Pets
A curious, and perhaps a little bit dumb kitten named Wicket. If you know anything about Star Wars- WHICH YOU SHOULD- he looks an awful lot like Wicket the Ewok. Hence the namesake.

Family
Father- Daniel McKensie- Author
Mother- Charlotte McKensie- Chef

Octavia Isabella Miriam McKenna
SS extension; TDS


Full Name: Octavia Isabella Miriam McKenna
Nicknames: Tavie. NEVER call her Octavia
Age: 22
Date of Birth: November 14th, 2051
Education: Homeschooled.
Wand: Ivy, Basilisk skin, 8 inches
Height: 5'9
Build: Tall, slim, in many ways the exact copy of her twin Evolette
Hair: long, shiny blonde that reaches the middle of her back. She usually keeps it straight, and hardly does more than brush it.
Eyes: Keen, curious blue color, her emotions never cross them, so if you want to know what she is thinking, don't bother looking.
General appearance: At first glance, Tavie looks to be a tall, pretty blonde girl, with a rather frightening scowl on her face. It is always present.


Personality: Octavia is possibly THE McKenna that you should avoid, out of all of them. She's rude, abrasive and if you DARE talk to her before she talks to you, she very well might scratch your eyes out. Tavie is very family oriented. Regardless of how corrupt a family she has, she will defend them to the end. Who can you trust, if you can't trust your family? More often than not, Tavie prefers to be alone, she swims alone, eats alone, reads alone and studies alone.

History: Born exactly ten minutes before her sister Evolette, Tavie has always thought of herself as Evolette's older sister, and not her twin. She knows everything that there is to know about her sister, and she is, essentially, her best friend. She has no time for dating, nor does she care for the company of males, or females at all. Her first kiss was a boy named Phillip, at one of her father's business events, she punched him in the eye and he ran, crying and bleeding, back to his mother. However, boys do not seem to get the memo, and she's punched out quite a few more over the years.

Along with her sister, Tavie was also sexually abused by her grandfather from a very young age. Most of it- she has blocked out, preferring to cut herself off from most people and not think about it at all. She believes, had she not endured that, she would have turned out much differently, and she's bitter about it. Tavie does not let people in, and she fears that she just doesn't know how, even though, she will never admit it.

Family: Tavie comes from a fairly large family, her parents, Nicholas and Morgan married very young, as sort of a love match by their parents. To this day, they have many marriage problems. Nicholas is mostly always away on business trips and Morgan spends her days as a flamboyant socialite, flitting from one glamorous party to another.

She has three older brothers: Dominik, Alexander, and Preston, a twin sister: Evolette, and a younger sister: Greenlee. The McKenna’s live in a rather large, wealthy manor, and also own a summer house in the country, as well as houses in France and Italy.

Extra: Tavie is allergic to strawberries, and certain types of ink. She is nearly deaf in one ear, which she uses to her advantage quite often. She keeps a list of books that she wants to read before she dies, and it is currently 500 titles long.

Pets: None. Ever. Tavie is not the nurturing type.

Current: Despite everyone's prediction that she would end up a bitter old maid- Tavie did meet a man, Haneul Oh, in the summer of 2069, and a mere week later- she got pregnant. The twins (Grayer and Kenzie) were born in February of 2070.Align Center

Lysander Walsh

Lysander Walsh
Solways Academy Student
Performing Arts

Nicknames/Aliases: Sander
Age: 22
Gender: Male

Hair Color: dirty blond, he wears it until it grows unbearably long, and then crops it short.
Eye Color: blue green, depending on what color he wears determines the dominate color of his eyes.
Height: 6'2
Weight: 170 lbs
General Appearance:

Picture: [Not required but highly encouraged. No bigger than 400x600]

Personality: Usually quiet, Lysander does not acknowledge anyone he does not find worthy, therefore, if he doesn't answer you, he doesn't have a hearing problem, he's just ignoring you. Dynamic and personable, when he chooses to be, the boy is mostly a loner. Even though he has many friends, and is usually surrounded by them, most of the time, he's off in his own world. Lysander makes friends especially with the girls, rather easily, probably because he is so easy going. Most of the time, that is. Other times, he can be rather snobby, and look down at you if you do not measure up to his standards.

History: In high school, Lysander was popular without meaning, or trying to be. He attended private prep schools like most of Solway's students did, and tended to focus more on his school work and music. Recently, Lysander's girlfriend of four years broke up with him, because she was having an affair with her English Lit professor. He's still not over her, which makes dating a highly unwanted situation at the moment. At least until he feels he's found the right girl.

Family: Father- Hilton Walsh; owns a record label.
Lydia Walsh; dancer
Olivia Walsh; younger sister

Pets: a couple of dogs. Breed? Not important right now.
Allergies: Cotton, blueberries, green tea

Likes: sleeping, music, sleeping, dating
Dislikes: loud noises, peanut butter, coffee, too many pillows

Anything else?: Lysander could, possibly, perhaps, be considered as a hopeless romantic. He likes to think that maybe there's someone for everyone, and maybe he will find someone like that.

Aaliyah Lin Mao
Solway's Academy Student
Plastic Arts.


Nicknames/Aliases: Linlee
Age: 21
Gender: Female
Hair Color: Black, long and curly, it reaches all the way down to her backside, and she has not cut it in 10 years, although she visits the salon every three weeks to keep it looking fabulous.
Eye Color: Brown, rather small, but highly expressive, surrounded by long, thick black lashes that she enjoys batting, and often does to get her way.
Height: 5'4
Weight: 105 lbs
General Appearance: Aaliyah is naturally small, or petite as some would say. She had a very high metabolism, and she can eat whatever she wants, and always does, yet her weight is maintained. Her dancing career has built her muscles, and her body is very lean. Oftentimes, Aaliyah makes up for her lack of height by wearing very tall shoes, which she is very practiced in wearing now, and can even run in, if she ever had a reason to run. Only wearing designer labels, Aaliyah's large closet is emptied out one a month, as she never wears the same thing twice. Ever.
Personality: Even though she is spoiled, and proud and rich, Aaliyah can also be sweet, when she feels like it. Often, and only to her close friends, she is referred to as the "sweetheart" Aaliyah likes boys. Most of her time spent, is spent with boys, although the other girls of the Acer Crew are her close friends, she values the boys a little bit more. SHHH. Don't tell. On the outside, she appears calm, collected, and quiet, and most of the time she is, as long as she is getting her way. But should you dare contradict her, tell her no, or stand in her way, watch out for the claws, cause then, they will come.
History: Without her mother, and her father always away on business, Aaliyah was raised by maids and bodyguards. She does not think of these people as the "help" but as her family. Before her mother died, Liling, who was a model/actress herself, secured Aaliyah an agent, and quickly got her into working in modeling, and commercials. She continued with her modeling even after her mother died, often taking her loving nurse, Meili with her. Aaliyah attended high class private schools all through her elementary and high school years, and she was involved in many afterschool activities, choosing to keep herself busy, and with her friends, instead of at home alone. Along with her modeling, Aaliyah also started dancing, her favorite was ballet and ballroom. In the 9th grade, Aaliyah found her love of painting, and from there, her art obsession evolved exponentially.
Family: Quan Lei, Aaliyah's father is 54 years old. He met her mother, Liling, 20 years ago at a launch party for his first restaurant, and two weeks later, found out that she was pregnant. Head over heels in love, the young couple married 2 months later, in a traditional wedding in Hong Kong. Three years after Aaliyah was born, the family moved to the United States, taking up residence in New York. Quan's business boomed quickly, and still today, he owns over 70 working, high business restaurants (most of which are Chinese food restaurants) in over 8 different states. At the age of five, Aaliyah's mother died in a tragic airplane crash. When her father IS home, all of his time is devoted to doting on his daughter, there is nothing that he would not do, say, or buy for his little princess.
Pets: At home, Aaliyah has a small zoo. Giraffes, elephants, monkeys and horses. She also has a rather spoiled cat named Jia.
Allergies: Red dye, dust, cheap shoes.
Likes: Coffee, dayplanners, shoes, diamonds. rap music, dancing, boys, boys with good jobs, boys with pretty eyes, vacationing, steamed apples, ice cream and
Dislikes: Dogs, poor people. being told what to do/think, pain, being late and napping.
Anything else?: Never forget her birthday, EVER. Aaliyah likes getting presents, and she will NEVER forgive your impudence.
