    Tali Spats
    #1
    In Character
    Full Name: Natalia Ramona Spats

    Nicknames: Tali

    Birthdate: August 30, 1864

    Current Age: 17

    Occupation: Prostitute (Maison de VÚnus)

    Hogwarts House: Unknown

    Wand: None

    Blood Status: Half-blood

    Social Class: Lower

    Family:
    • Peter Spats - Father

      Cornelia Spats - Mother

      Lucinda Spats - Sister

    Appearance:
    • Standing at 5'2" she has a thin build though she does have the slender waist and wider hips of a woman. Her breasts are average sized and almost always exposed over the top of her corset. Her almost black hair is short, cropped to her ear lobes and somewhat shaggy. She has wide blue eyes like her sister hidden behind a row of thick lashes. Her nose is slightly upturned and lips pink and pouty. She is right handed, and almost always dressed in the finest the brothel has to offer, which is scanty at best due to the needs of the clientele.
    History:
    • She grew up happy enough, though poor due to her fathers laziness. When her sister was born - though accidental - Tali saw it as a blessing in disguise. She loved her sister dearly from the day she was born, vowing to forever watch over the delicate bundle that was in her mothers arms. This vow did not go unkept as witnessed through their youth when Tali would do anything to protect her sister from even the smallest of wounds.

      When it came time for Tali to be sent off to Hogwarts, she was excited to go but realized that her chances of going were very slight, and as such she pretended not to care much. She never was the studious type anyways, preferring to play pretend and have adventures as she did, so in a way she wasn't so distraught when she was told that she would be unable to attend Hogwarts. Her sister, however, did not feel the same when she got her letter and was unable to go. By then Tali had been working a job and providing for her family, wanting nothing more than to send her sister to Hogwarts unlike herself. She failed in that respect, a blow that she still feels to this day.

      In the summer of 1881, her parents left the two girls abandoned in Hogsmeade, leaving them to fend for themselves. Tali swore she'd never forgive them for this, and almost immideately after their abandonment she found a job at Maison de VÚnus, a brothel. She took up work as a prostitute there, giving her virginity to the highest bidder and keeping her sister close as a maid at the brothel. She vowed once more to protect her sister and not let her enter the lifestyle that she was forced into.

    Personality:
    • She is a fiery girl, most definitely would have been a Gryffindor had she the chance to attend Hogwarts. She is self sacrificing, as shown by her willingness to take a job as a prostitute to save her sister from the same fate. She is adventurous and brave to a fault, throwing herself into situations without fully understanding the consequences they can bring. She is bold and daring also, not caring much for propriety and going after whatever it is she wants. She is selfless, willing to do anything for those close to her, and especially her sister. She knows that things will not be easy always and does what is necessary to get by, no matter how unsavory it may be. Overall she is a feisty, outgoing and caring individual. When it comes to her sister she is protective as a mother lion and fierce in her protection of her. She isn't the brightest girl around, smarter in street smarts and common sense rather than books, but she doesn't mind too much. She speaks improperly oftentimes and sounds every bit as illiterate as she is. Though she feels down about being illiterate, she doesn't let it get to her and focuses instead on keeping her sister happy. She does everything for her sister and her main priority in life is her sisters happiness and well being.
