OVERALL PERSONALITY:

El may be one of the most fiercely independent women you ever meet. While she has some friends, ad she does care for her family, she never allows herself to be held down by these connections. She is determined to live her life the way she wants to and doesn't care what other people think. She is self-confident and highly intelligent and will argue circles around you if she must. On top of that, she has extremely strong opinions, and she sometimes lacks a filter. El is loud when her ideals come into question, but normally she is at least fairly well-mannered. Lately it has been getting easier and easier to piss her off, and when she gets angry she will take someone's head off.

Call her a pacifist, but El hates the idea of killing and, through that, of war. As weird as it sounds, she would fight against killing, except that would generally be counterintuitive. However, if someone she truly cared for was in danger, she would not hesitate to fight for them, even against her personal beliefs.

El has quite the list of personality flaws, but the worst is probably her vanity. For all she doesn't care about other peoples' opinions, she sort of does, at least when it comes to her physical appearance. She believes in always looking perfect and loves when she gets attention because of it. She is also incredibly arrogant, believing herself to be more intelligent than anyone around her. She thinks that she ought to have been sorted into Slytherin, and so that makes her better than her Ravenclaw colleagues, to whom she can be quite condescending.

Power is very attractive to El, but she doesn't like the idea of power through fighting. She would rather fame for some inteligent feat or another, but that wouldn't stop her from taking power or fame wherever she could get it. El is a naturally skilled liar, and so can pretend to approve of the dark arts and such when in reality she is disgusted by those who use such low means to attain power.

Temperamental doesn't even begin to cover El. Her emotions are all over the place, and it's difficult to predict how she will react. Part of this has to do with her training in Occlumency and the disturbance of her growing powers as a Seer. Below the surface, where she keeps her weaker side safely locked away, she fears what is happening to her, because she doesn't understand what the images mean and thinks that it may be someone trying to break into her mind - though for what reason, she cannot fathom.

FACE CLAIM

OVERALL DESCRIPTION:

El considers herself to be a gorgeous woman, and she's not wrong. Long dark brown hair falls past her waist, a feat only attained because of its thick, wavy texture. Her eyebrows are similar in colour to her hair, and are gently arched to give her a calculating look. Her eyes are a pale blue-grey and she has naturally long and dark lashes. Her nose, while a bit dainty, is straight, and her lips are neither to thin nor too full and complete the balance of her face. Her features are sharp, and all this is accentuated by her flawless pale skin.

Her body is thin, but not unhealthily so. While her breasts may be a bit smaller than the average, she certainly knows how to use them to distract men. She has an hourglass figure despite her slenderness, and takes care to keep it that way. She doesn't have a great deal of muscle as she quite dislikes physical activity. El is rather tall, and she looks quite long, especially when she chooses to bare her shapely legs. For outfits she prefers a mix of bright colours and whites and blacks, as well as simpler designs.

OVERALL HISTORY:

Elisabeth Jocasta Nott is the oldest child in a family of four. She was born into as happy a family as could be expected from those with the surname 'Nott', which was still quite pleasant as childhoods went. She was always fond of her younger brother, but more often than not she'd be found playing on her own or reading a book, or on the rare occasions she was allowed out without supervision she'd assemble a small army of children to play her games or generally follow her lead, though none of them were her friends. It wasn't a lonely childhood; Ella simply never wanted the friendships that most children crave. Right from the start her independent streak was obvious, and her hunger for power and knowledge had begun.

By the time she received her Hogwarts letter, she had grown restless and a bit nervous. Her biggest worry was letting her parents down, as her entire family had been sorted into Slytherin and she feared being sorted somewhere that would lead to being disowned or some such thing, yet at the same time she was certain that Slytherin was going to be her home for the next seven years. Her first ride on the train to Hogwarts wasn't particularly eventful. She met some other first years, but never pursed any close friendships with them, assuming that she'd find friends in her new house.

Unfortunately, that was not to be; she was sorted into Ravenclaw after the Sorting Hat told her she posessed an intellect and hunger for knowledge like every other Ravenclaw. Distraught, she spent her first night in Hogwarts contemplating how to convince the Headmaster that she'd been sorted into the wrong house. Luckily enough for her, her family was perfectly fine with her house, and Ella decided that she was far superior to any of the other Ravenclaws as she was clearly meant for Slytherin.

Over the next five years she didn't exactly find a home, but Ella found a place that she certainly enjoyed. While she knew few people that could be considered friends, she was content. Her thirst for knowledge was sated with the many various classes and she found that people were attracted to her independence and strong will, and she didn't mind the attention, although she never had any interest in being friends with these people. Even as she grew older and the attention turned from wanting friendship to wanting something a little more, Ella still turned them away. To date she's only been in a couple of relationships; most have barely lasted through a single date.

In her fifth year, Ella started experiencing something odd: images would just appear in her head at the strangest of moments, and she couldn't understand what it could possibly mean. After research she decided that it must be some sort of attack on her mind; but why, she couldn't fathom. And so that summer she asked a family friend skilled in occlumency to teach her how to defend her mind from these images. As of yet the training has made no difference and Ella despairs of ever blocking out whoever it is. If only she knew what it really was...
