Lindsley Martins

Name: Lindsley Martins
She doesn't have a middle name; her mother's side is Asian and they don't give middle names that was the only aspect of her name that her mother thought of, she uses her father's surname and he also thought of her first name. It was also the name of her great-great grandmother on her father's side, who was a Hufflepuff.

Lind is more common, only her younger brother calls her Wind since he finds it hard to pronounce 'L's. Teachers call her by her full name, Lindsley, though it is commonly miss-pronounced and miss-spelled as Lindley instead of Lindsley.

Age & Gender: 11 Years old, Female

Year & House: 1st Year, Hufflepuff

Blood Type: Her mother's side is purely muggle, and as mentioned above her mother is Asian. (Thai / Indonesian - She came to the United States of America to study and met her husband-to-be) However, her father's side is made up of wizards. The majority of them were either sorted into Ravenclaw or Hufflepuff, though there was one Gryffindor. Her father's side didn't really approve of the marriage to a muggle, so things are slightly awkward with their relationship, but things got better when it turned out that Lindsley is a witch. If it turns out that Lindsley's younger brother James is also magical, then the relationship will only get better.

Wand: Nine [9] inches, made of oak and has a core of Unicorn Hair.

Quidditch Position (3-7 years ONLY): She is too young to play, and she doesn't really like the looks of the sport from when she watches it. She thinks that it is a tad too violent, and seeing that people can be injured while playing... It isn't really in her interest range.

Personality: Lind pretty much sums up the word 'nice'. Polite and quiet, always ready with a smile, and of decent intelligence. However, she seems rather flat, like there is nothing but fluff inside her personality. She keeps mostly to herself, and is often viewed as an introvert, preferring to stay in the background where she can blend in and be apart of the crowd. However, once you start talking to her you will find that she has a sense of humor and likes making jokes, hence why she was sorted into Hufflepuff. She doesn't like seeing people get hurt, no matter who they are, and is very nonjudgmental. She will not judge a person by first impressions, what they look like or where they come from, which can be both good and bad. Lind is very gullible and will fall for everything except the most obvious of tricks, though she is skilled at picking up what is sarcasm and what is not. She likes to keep her head down when in a new area or around new people, but once she gets used to her surroundings she does open up a little bit. She cares little about what others think about her, and will stand up for all her beliefs and thoughts.

Appearance: Lind is slightly below average height for her age, standing at 4'0 and weighing a healthy seventy-eight [78] pounds. She has straight hair that is cut short, only reaching her chin at it's longest point and therefore doesn't require tying in order to keep it out of her eyes. She needs only to push it back behind her ears and it usually stays. Her hair is black, though it can be classified as very dark brown, and has no highlights, maintaining a constant color all the way through. She has slightly slitted Asian eyes that are dark brown in color, with thin eyebrows and short eyelashes that are the same color as her hair. She is slim and rather thin, but her face carries some 'extra' flesh that makes her look still quite young. She has thin fingers with short nails, she doesn't like to have them long because she finds it hard to pick things up without chipping her nails. She doesn't paint her nails, wear make-up or use perfume since she is allergic to most perfumes and make-up. It makes her skin become rough and sometimes she breaks out with red bumps if she is around lots of it. Her skin is fair, but is naturally tanned due to her Asian heritage.

History: Lindsley was born on May 17th, 2002 at 9:00 am precisely. She grew up in rather large city of Bridgeport, Connecticut. She lived in a medium-sized flat with her family and three cats, and went to school at the nearby local Primary School. She liked volunteering at the pound and helping out all the animals, though usually only caused more trouble for the other pound volunteers because they constantly fretted about her getting hurt since she was so young, but nothing bad ever occurred. Nothing unusual happened to her during her childhood until a stranger came and told her that she was a witch.

Family & Pets: Lind has one younger brother (as mentioned above) named James. He is six [6] years old, and is a pesky little fellow who likes to get into trouble. She was constantly charged with looking after him before she came to Hogwarts, and is good with children because of that. Her father is named Delinqui (Wizard, Ravenclaw) and her mother is named Mogkut- Stang for short (muggle). The family had three cats, all of which were adopted from local shelters, though one was rescued off the streets. Their names are Tiger, Cloud and Baxter. (Tiger and Baxter are males, and Cloud is a female and is also the one they rescued from the streets) And she has recently acquired another female cat (a pure Colorpoint Siamese) which she named Cake. She is taking Cake to Hogwarts with her.

Crush or Boyfriend or Girlfriend: N/A - She is heterosexual and therefore would have a boyfriend if she gets one.
