    Natalia Jameston
    #1
    Full Name: Natalia Mary Jameston
    Nicknames: Natalia or Lia. Occassionally Li, but she has to be extra fond of you.
    Birthdate: December 10th, 1866
    Current Age: 17
    Occupation: Student
    Hogwarts House: Gryffindor
    Wand: Ash, 9”, Veela Hair (her great-grandmother), swishy
    Blood Status:
    Posing as purebloods, the truth is they are halfblood, with ¼ veela blood
    Social Class: Upper Class
    Family:

    Charles Jameston – Father
    Rose Jameston – Mother (half veela)
    Narcissa Jameston – Fraternal twin
    Cain Jameston – Uncle
    Allison Jameston – Aunt – deceased
    Elaine Jameston – Aunt
    Christopher Jameston – Cousin
    Colten Jameston – cousin

    Appearance:

    Natalia, although looking facially similar, both having strong bone structure, is, other than their eyes, incredibly visually different to Narcissa.

    Natalia is taller, by an inch, at 5’6”.
    Her frame is slightly curvier in the hips, and has slightly larger breasts. Her waist is nicely defined so when a corset is added to her frame she has an exaggerated waist.
    Her eyes are blue, a very bright, pale colour, almost identical to Narcissa’s.
    When she smiles, which is nearly all the time, her cheeks dimple and her cheekbones appear higher and more exaggerated.
    Her hair is blonde and reaches just to her, for lack of a better area, armpits. It has quite a bit of volume and a tousled sort of natural curl.

    When not in uniform, she likes to wear Lilacs and Lavenders, her favourite colours by far, claiming they bring out her eyes.

    Taught to always have the most elegant and perfect posture possible, there is rarely a moment she does not look like a beautiful, refined lady. The family secret, of Veela blood, is very important, and in order to keep it that way, Natalia and Narcissa were taught the importance of ensuring they present themselves immaculately.

    She holds her wand in her right hand.

    History:
    Natalia was born the second Fraternal twin, the other her sister Narcissa.

    From an early age Natalia showed signs of heightened socialising skills, able to commandeer a room without batting an eyelid, people are naturally very drawn to her. It should be noted that this is not her Veela charm, since she is only 1/4, instead this stems from her natural charisma and good-nature. She is blessed with an infectious smile or laugh. She was sociable and considerate from the moment she was able to play with others. Her patience was seen as a virtue by her parents as Natalia would never snap, not even when Narcissa was having one of her near psychotic moments.

    She developed moments of rage as she grew older, but they are so scattered that they are not considered an issue as it takes a lot to make her angry. When she is angry, she unleashes a red-hot rage.
    The older Natalia gets the more her rage becomes something she cannot control, almost in contrast to her twin sister.

    Her family moves to Wellingtonshire in ’77 when Hogsmeade is built, around a year before she begins at Hogwarts.

    First Year

    The sorting hat has a very had time placing Natalia, she is sorted after her sister, and although it takes no time at all to sort Narcissa, the hat is somewhat unsure of what to do with Natalia. The hat tells her Ravenclaw is not the house for her, pausing a long moment, before telling her that she has the loyalty and courage of a Gryffindor but the friendly heart of a Hufflepuff. She is eventually placed in Gryffindor.
    Her first year is easy, she is immediately popular as she is friendly and smiles a lot. It is not long before she has friends in all four houses, still considering her sister to be her friend and therefore completing her full house.

    She proves to be a good student, however does not get the hang of Potions. In fact, Potions starts to prove to be her emotional downfall and she grows quite frustrated by lessons.


    Second Year

    Her second year was mostly uneventful, she fancied herself in love with one of the Professors momentarily, but soon got over the attraction as soon as she found out he was not a pureblood. Her affections move onto an older prefect; a sixth year. In her friendships, however, she is less than harsh. She maintains friendships with students of all walks of life, but her core group are other Upper Class girls.

    Third Year

    Her third year is more exciting than ever, as she enjoys her lessons even more and has more friends to enjoy it with.

    It is the summer between her Third and Fourth year, now aged 14, that Natalia decides she is madly in love with her cousin Colten, her only huge secret (other than being ¼ Veela), and she manages to keep this a secret.

    Fourth Year

    She starts to blossom more into a young woman by now, and now cannot go down a hallway without turning most male heads. Also, to mention, this is not her Veela blood entirely, this is more her smile and airy nature, those that know her are often encouraged to smile along with her, those that don't are fooled by her Veela blood as well. To note, she is also an incredibly naturally beautiful girl, and completely unaware of it, unlike her sister Narcissa. NB: I am aware that not every man or boy will find attraction to her after her initial oomph wears off.

    Fifth Year

    Her fifth year results in hard work, but also a lot of relaxation. In fact so much ‘relaxation’ that her friends don’t think she’s working at all, however she is just incredibly good at last minute cramming.
    Her hard work pays off in everything but Potions, which she receives her lowest grade in, barely passing the test. Her final practical Exam in potions showcases her first real Hogwarts extreme, incredibly angry explosion, which results in her breaking down in tears momentarily after. She still believes her mark was a pity-mark, given to her merely to ease her humiliation. She was removed before barely managing to complete the potion. It was passed off as stress.


    Sixth Year

    Starting her Sixth year Natalia chooses to take the following newts:
    Herbology
    Divination
    Charms
    Transfiguration
    Care of Magical Creatures

    Natalia has only just begun her sixth year and still believes to be madly in love with Colten.


    Personality:
    At the complete polar end of her sister, Natalia is naturally of a sweet disposition. She always assumes the good in everyone and is often described as a bit lovey. Although she is not screechy or overbearing, she is constantly cheery, but never feels obliged to make you join her in that.
    She is also a romantic and therefore is almost always ‘in love’ with someone.
