Wand: 10" Cherry Wand with a Niffler Hair Core.
Boggart: As simple of a fear as it might be, her greatest fear is the dark, the unknown and what she cannot be prepared for. This is her boggart, and it is represented by a door opening into pitch black.
Patronus: Jackrabbit- this is because in Western American culture, the rabbit has always been seen as the speedster, the one who acts and then thinks (then, on occasion, reacts). This is very much true to her form.

Family/Relationships
Parents: Stanely & and Meredith (Vilaca) Parke
Siblings: Judith Parke, 8th grade.
Extended Family: here
Familiar: Her mother gave her a small rat to have instead of cat or owl because you see, both of those would come home after graduation. A rat would be dead by then. ...she named it Corduroy.
Sexuality: boy-crazy
Significant Others:
Apple Evans - Their romance was a whirlwind, made up of notes in class, across the hall and (dare we say it?) hand holding! It didn't last long and neither hold harsh feelings for it.

Willy Molineux - He didn't realize they were dating, and their length (a few weeks + days + hours) was a record for both. She tries to be hurt over it. But... he's still so pretty. She can never hate a face like that.

Kyle Copeland - Oh those twelve days of romance, the hugging! Oh the hugging for the ages. Novels could have been written on their hugging. Alas, it was not meant to be. They still hug though!

Victor Haas - By far and large her fastest relationship, he took her out for an afternoon, they even kissed once or thrice. But sadly thirty-six hours was too long for them. Some couples are incompatible.

Appearance
PB: Juno Temple
Detailed Description:
[HEIGHT] 5'1" - very short and soft. Not fat of course but she has a baby face and is far from anorexic looking.
[HAIR] Long & Blond, at times, matted to the point of dreads, other times brushed out to give her a poofy mass above and behind her.
[EYES] Blue, no glasses required.
[PIERCINGS] Ears of course, and her nose on her right side. This was achieved via needle, ice and a lot of tissues. (Her mother was not amused.)

[THE REST] To say that Janis enjoyed color would be an understatement, she spends a great deal of her time pouring over magazines in order to stay abreast on the latest fashion and trends, and then in turn does her very best to emulate that in her wardrobe and budget. Personally she wouldn't mind having nicer jeans- but when her mother insists on buying her regular straight denim and then hemming the cuffs, a girl has to make due. On a whole she gives a very small impression, much like a chickadee or frog, bouncing about from left to right, trying (and almost succeeding) on being everywhere at once.

Quirks:
Janis is very aware of how short she is, so she wears wedges (not heels mind) and stuffs her shoes when they’re not tall enough. No, this is not the most comfortable way to wear shoes in the world and yes- she does own a pair of lifts for her shoes- she just forgets to put them in most of the time.

She loves weird internet things- especially if you can find them on youtube and facebook , memes are her forte. Beware her facebook for every game or app or ville of the farm you can have, she does. For her sixteenth birthday she didn't ask for a car (like your average teenager) but the new iphone, so she can be just that much more distracted.

She has a bit of an oral fixation, and so whenever thinking or stressed she has to chew on something, be it gum, her nails (though she tries to avoid that), pencils and her hair. Most of the time though, it’s pencils and gum- just depending on what is available and allowed.

Her greatest and most prized possession is her grandfather's flaminco guitar which he got 'during the war'. (now, if the war was WWII, Spanish Uprising or a vacation before she was born... well.)

Janis is a shoe-whore, and has dedicated the bottom drawer of her dresser to just her flip flops. We're not going to get started on how many converse she owns.

Secrets:
Janis has had a long standing crush on a fellow classmate (unnamed) but because of just that crush, she is unable to admit it. Instead she flirts with everything else that moves around her, those are more toys than potential boyfriends, and a lot safer.

One secret that has no real reason to be; is that she has a total of eleven toes. That’s right. Eleven. There is a little baby pinky two twice over on her left foot. It’s not so much a secret but it’s not something she’ll go and start showing to anyone just because.

She is a trekkie- not in the ‘omg I love Chris Pine’ sort of trekkie, but the hard core her father dressed her up as one of these as a baby sort of trekkies. She even has a stuffed tribble on her bed. (It’s name is Gilmer). While she appreciates the new show, and is a TOS fan at heart- if pressed between Kirk and Picard, the answer is always always Picard.

For the rumor mill it can be said that she ran away from home when she was thirteen, for while she never actually did (hence the rumor) she did decide to… not live at home that summer and now bounces back between her parent’s and her grandparent’s abodes.

Detailed personality:
Janis is an undeniable people-person, she loves being in every activity, every conversation and hearing every bit of gossip, even when she might not have any gossip to add to it, she'll listen. Still rather immature in the realm of things, her world is made up of school, boys, family and boys- and even so, she's okay with that. For her school is just a stepping stone to... somewhere, she isn't sure but whatever she is meant to do is beyond the walls of where she is at. It's not that she is unhappy where she is, or doing what she is doing but long ago she decided that her life is going to be amazing when she is twenty three and now all that she is trying to do is get there.

In classes Janis is always the one to be drawing pictures right alongside her notes, and it is that clever aspect that put her in her house just a few years before. She genuinely wants to be liked by others and in turn, does her very best to like others. This desire and her tendency to follow others cause her to try and stay on the heels of the fellow and upperclassmen, to try and emulate everything from their woes to their fashion. She’s still not sure who she is yet, where she wants to go and who she wants to be. After all, she has a million opportunities, this is America! If she wants to be a doctor, in theory, she can. If she wants to be an actress, an artist the president of the United States… she can.

Honestly, that amount of options does scare her a little. For now though, for now and for here she is going to just be a student. Next year she is going to worry about classes and all that- and hopefully; hopefully pass.

Personal History:
Janis was always a special child, and by special I mean that by four, she had broken her arm twice and cut her own hair in the shape of a mullet. She was her parent's first and even though her father had been previously married, this whole baby thing was a bit new to him. ...Actually, a lot of things were new to him. All his life he had been a simple chiropractor, a doctor who made his life off hurt athletes and richer businessmen than he.Then there he goes, and got married to a sprite young thing... who well. Was a witch.

Talk about awkward.

After a few beers, the entire series of Bewitched on VHS he was ready to go again. After all! This was his wife, and their child would be his pride and joy. They did all they could to get her ahead in life, enrolled her in all the best pre-schools and hell, she even made friends!

Sophie was a very active child, chasing friends- cats-dogs- pieces of paper... down slopes and across streets. She knocked out her baby teeth in this manner, and that scar on her left knee? You guessed it. She spent a very split childhood in this manner, the wizarding lifestyle her mother's family, and a very typical muggle one with her father's. One grandmother taught her how to put on make-up, the other taught her how to tweak it so it changed colors during the day. One grandfather taught her to fish, another taught her how to make them sing. Of course she would have gone to a more local school when the time came, but really? What father can deny his daughter's tears and demands? Not Stanly Parke.

She moved to CC, started school and did all that a child her age might do. She played in the playground, broke her arm (again) and made even more friends than before. She bounced from group to group, activity to activity, and of course, boyfriend to boyfriend. She still followed those silly Brits around, but they're not the only one to be well, stalked. After all! It's a big school! Just like any typical member of Beauregard, she does it with all the spirit that comes with it.
