page]
wand hand: Right
grades: Excellent OWLS, she had really been hoping to make Head
Girl.
wand: ivy; 10 1/2"; hippogryff talon
pets: A kitten, Vega, and an owl.
financial: Upperclass.
personality: Klio has always been taught to stand up straight
and to look people in the eyes. Even if she hardly ever follows the
second part of that advice, her mother would be proud to know that although
Klio prefers to blend in with the crowd she’s not one to let herself
be stepped on. She knows her own value, even if she’s sometimes self
conscious or self doubting and she won’t let anyone control her or force
her into things she doesn’t really want. Deep down Klio enjoys that
her friend shelps to make her more of an extrovert. As she's gotten
older, Klio has developed somewhat of an attitude at times.
She’s a girl who respects people who respect themselves. Although she’s
often perceived as shy, Klio can be very outgoing once you gain her
trust. Being playful and giggly around her friends has always been Klio’s
nature. She loves to have a good time but she’s very serious about her
school work and that always comes first. Her most sought after goal
was making Head Girl but her hopes were dashed when her close friend
Phoebe was named instead. |

appearance. |
height: 5'6"
hair color: Blonde Dark brown.
eye color: Green.
marks: Nothing distinctive although she does have a pretty
face.
general overview: Although she once walked the halls of Hogwarts
with decisive steps, that was the Klio of the past. With everything
that's happened, Klio is now more likely to be seen somewhere beneath
layers of non-descript clothing, trying her best to just blend in
with the crowd. She generally wears her newly dyed brown hair in her
face, hiding her gaze from people who might be staring at her
(either in actuality or just in her own mind). She used to be proud
of looking nice but now Klio spends very little time on her
appearance. |
|
psychological & physical. |
outwardly:
Klio has always been the sweet friend, the one you can turn to who
will always listen if you need to talk. Lately however, fewer people
have wanted to confide in her and many of her Muggleborn friends are
wary in her presence.
inwardly: Klio was crushed when she was overlooked for Head
Girl but that news being paired with Orpheus' arrest have completely
decimated her outlook on life.
introvert/extrovert: Introvert.
first impression: “She’s cute, but painfully shy…” or “Travers...like,
him?”
quirks/habits/mannerisms: She bites her lip when nervous. She
also oftentimes says nothing at all and simply stands on the sidelines,
gauging the people, activities and atmosphere before she joins in. She
tends to play with the ends of her hair or continuously tuck it behind
her ears. She can usually be found in her favorite aisle of the library,
hunkered down on the floor with a stack of books and some parchment.
boggart: Murdering her friends.
patronus: Eagle.
likes: Books, charms, music, dancing, laughing, smiling, juice,
romance novels, people watching, jewelry,
dislikes: Snobs, know-it-alls, busy-bodies.

history. |
Klio grew up with
her older brother, Orpheus in Gloucestershire. She lived a playful,
joyous childhood with early memories filled with being pushed on a mattress
down the large front staircase and having her older brother read to
her. Growing up they were close, being only 4 years apart from each
other. She was devastated when he went off to Hogwarts without her however
and she couldn’t wait until she got a letter of her own. She spent the
time he was at school reading as much about Hogwarts and magic as possible,
convinced that maybe if she could learn a lot she might be put into
his class. Even after that dream was crushed by reality she was determined
to do her best when her time came.
When her own letter to Hogwarts arrived, Klio was ecstatic. Finally
she was going to get to ride the Hogwarts Express in the fall with her
brother and not have to stand on the platform and wave. She immediately
set to work arranging all her things in her trunk and was packed three
days before it was time to leave. She stayed up all night the day before
the train was to leave and as a result she slept all the way to Hogwarts.
At the sorting ceremony she was still a little groggy but that didn’t
stop the sorting hat from choosing true. Klio was heartbroken to find
that she wasn’t in Slytherin with her brother. He had assured her that
they would be together and he would show her the ropes. Now he was down
in the dungeons while she was up in a tower. She cried herself to sleep
that night, missing her mum and her big brother.
As time went on, Klio began to gain independence at Hogwarts. She knew
little of her brother’s life outside their sheltered family but as she
grew older she did begin to suspect Orpheus was involved in some of
the darker politics of the age. It wasn't in her personality to confront
him but she did worry about how he was changing.
As she and Orpheus grew older, the two siblings grew apart for many
reasons. He was more interested in being a Death Eater and less concerned
about school. Klio on the other hand worked very hard and sought out
friends who shared her passion for learning as well as ones who helped
her break out of her shell and have a good time.
Lately, Klio has been playing almost two different roles. At home and
with her teachers she is still the goody-goody who aims to please but
times are changing and Klio is getting tired of being the girl her parents
want her to be. Her second self is still emerging but if she's not careful,
Klio might not grow up to be someone she actually likes. She's out to
get Head Girl next year and if she's not careful she's going to tread
on anyone in her path. All this playing the referee is getting old but
Klio can't bring herself to take sides. Hopefully she won't be forced
to. |

| Ravenclaw Libra:
All Ravenclaws are intellectual, but Ravenclaw Libras have their heads
in the clouds more than most (Pisces Ravenclaws may have them beat,
but not by much). They are romantic and idealistic, and prefer to live
in the world of pure theory rather than in the messy world of action.
While social and pleasant, they are still quiet and shy, and rarely
make the first move when in a group of people. In the classroom, they
tend to wait to be called on, or raise their hands when they are sure
that no one else knows the answer, but they do tend to be the teacher's
pet on a fairly regular basis. It's hard to hate them for this, because
they are so pleasant to everybody. Ravenclaw Libras are the most speculative
(and indecisive) of all Libras, because they have the intellectual capacity
to explore all ramifications of every action and reaction.
