Name: Phoenix Halliwell
Age: 25
Wand: 15" Holly; Phoenix Tail Feather Core
House: Gryffindor
Job: Applying for teaching position at Hogwarts
Pet(s): A calico cat named Precious, who is fat and lazy, but loves "talking" to her stuffed teddy bear when she thinks she is alone; a Snow Owl with bright blue eyes named LunaBright (lives with my family most of the time)

Physical Appearance: Pretty average. I'm 5'4 with wavy brown hair and blue eyes. Unfortunately, I have to wear glasses for seeing things far away. I have an average build - flying is the best exercise.

Heritage: Pure blood mother, muggle father, a twin sister, a brother in Year 7, and a sister in Year 1.

Nationality: I am caucasion; my ancestors are from Ireland, Holland, Germany, Native America and possibly other areas as well.

Background: I was born in the United States, but my mom wanted us to have a great education, so we moved to London when I was 10. It was rough moving to a new country, but it was worth it. It was 1993 and my sister and I received our Hogwarts letters and a new adventure was upon us. We both got into Gryffindor, home of the brave, and loved every new experience. I learned so much from Hogwarts and met so many new people. It was one of the best times of my life. I graduated in 1999, and then moved back to the States.

Likes: Definitely love to eat, especially candy. It may not be good for you, but it sure tastes wonderful; and I love to sleep. I do enjoy hanging out with my twin and our friends. Visiting Hagrid is always a blast, just like learning new things and meeting new people. I love to walk around the castle grounds, go to Quidditch games and spending time in the library. And, of course I like guys - especially the cuties.

Dislikes: Meeting new people is great, but what I don't like are those who chew with their mouth open, those who are racists/bigots, snobby, and people who think they know everything. Because they don't.

Favorite Subject: Potions & Charms

Least Favorite Subject: Arithmancy

Personality: I love people, and I've been told I'm a good friend. I do my best to be fully loyal and I listen to any problems they have. Although, when I give my opinions, they don't always listen to me, but I do my best to protect those I love. I'm funny, nice, and bright. I tend to act like a dork sometimes, especially when I'm trying to be funny, but I just like taking care of others and making them happy.

I'm also an entertainment junkie - books, TV, movies, music. I love animals, especially dogs, and I love to collect things, like snow globes, figurines, etc...

The downside is, is that I can be a bit moody at times, but I try my best to keep my emotions in check around others so as to not take it out on them.
