She always has been. Even as a child she was smaller than other and that never changed. She has curly blonde hair that she cut short after she lost her sight (which will be explained later). She has brown eyes that are now rather glazed almost looking like they have a film over them. She also has little scars around her eyes that look like wrinkles if you don't pay attention to them carefully. Despite the fact that she is blind, she tends to stand and sit very straight making her seem a little taller than she actually is. Well, until you get close to her. and then a little about yourself likes: classical music, the feel of the sun on her skin, the sound of rain against glass, hot baths, being read to dislikes: not seeing, things being moved, being lied to, mockery, television/movies strengths: adaptable, honest, calm, intelligent, strong magic weaknesses: blind, flustered by things that annoy her, dependent, honesty, difficulty with relationships boggart: being alone erised: just to have someone with her to help her overall personality: Zakiah is a very quiet young woman. She is not shy, but she prefers to sit in the background and simply listen to what is going on so that she can learn the truth of the situation she is in. She is the kind of person who reserves judgement. She doesn't believe in making hasty decisions. A hasty decision is what took her sight in the first place. She tries to remain very calm and has always been honest. She hates the thought of lying or trying to deceive herself (besides the fact that if she did, it would ruin her ability to use the wand she has). She is very logical and intelligent but has difficulty understanding relationships between people. It has been something she had struggled with since she was a little girl, but it isn't something she has ever given up on either. She wants to understand how to be a real human being. It is something that she strives towards. She has actually been making progress towards that lately. She strives very hard to be independent, but she loves having someone around who helps her and cares for her. She knows that she needs it even as much as she doesn't like it. Even more she doesn't like when people move things. She has actually been known to yell at people for doing that. history your family and such parents: Catherine Tate [mother/45], Howard McCormick [father/42], Janice Dubh [adopted mother/64], Carson Dubh [adopted father/66] siblings: James Dubh [adopted brother/22], Emmeline Dubh [adopted sister/22] pets: none born: London overall history: Zakiah was born to a witch named Catherine Tate who had an affair with a seventeen year old muggle boy named Howard McCormick. After Catherine found out she was pregnant, she left Howard and went deep into the wizarding world until she gave birth to a baby girl. She decided to try and raise her daughter on her own. Unfortunately, Howard found out that Catherine had had a child and came to London to find them. When he did, he told Catherine he was staying. The couple argued constantly, tending towards abuse against each other though never towards their daughter. The little girl was four before anyone actually noticed what was going on. A co-worker of Catherine's at the ministry discovered the situation and reasoned with the woman until Catherine and Howard decided to hand over custody of their little girl to the co-worker, Janice Dubh and her husband Carson. The couple had just recently given birth to twins James and Emmeline but eagerly accepted the challenge of raising the three year old as well. Zakiah was given a normal education and went to Hogwarts at eleven where she was sorted into Ravenclaw. She showed great promise and did exceedingly well, getting some of the highest marks of her year. She continued through school studying Arithmancy and Ancient Runes as her elective courses. When she graduated, she went to work for the ministry and chose the department of mysteries as her focus. She was actually a researcher for three years until one of the men she worked with went over her head on one of their projects. She was still doing research when he decided to act before she could advice him. The experiment exploded and no one is quite sure what happened after all. All that is known is that the magic combined to blind Zakiah and make the man himself lose his mind. He now spends his days in Saint Mungo's talking about monkeys and kittens. His brother, the other man who was supposed to be working on the project, was given the duty of caring for Zakiah. He was actually supposed to be in the lab the day that everything went wrong but had been running late. Zakiah has grown to rely on him even more than she does her own adopted family who she tries to love in her own way. She simply doesn't know how because of the abuse and lack of love she saw in her childhood. Instead of a researcher, Zakiah was reassigned to be one of the public relations officers for the Department of Mysteries with her keeper and former co-worker as her guide. now for the person behind the character alias: Cho age: 23 experience: sporadically for 4 years where'd you find us?: an ad anything to add?: YOU LOVE ME lastly the roleplay sample Iasa, William, and Cambridge [style=padding-right:5px; padding-left:9px; font-family:georgia; font-size:10; letter-spacing:0px; color:#fff;line-height:10px; text-align:center; border-left:0px dotted black; text-transform:uppercase; padding-bottom:0px; text-shadow: 0 0 0.2em #F87, 0 0 0.2em #F87;] Credit goes to MDIZZLE FO RIZZLE at Caution 2.0 |
