In-Game Character Information
Name: Catty Turner
Series: Daughters of the Moon
Age: 16
Personality:
Catty, at first glance, seems like nothing more than a party girl. She loves to flirt, joke around, and just generally hang out instead of concentrating on her studies, which often gets her in trouble. She is a firm believer that a little bit of trouble is good for the soul, and she will often convince her best friends to accompany her on some wild new craze, despite their protests.
Deeper than that, Catty is very sensitive. She is a very talented artist, often taking time to go off by herself in order to draw out her frustrations. Even though she doesn't seem to take things seriously, she is always watching out for her friends and trying to protect herself. Though she tends to skirt responsibility, she often harbors deep guilt for things that she can't seem to control, even if these things need to happen (canonically, Catty was forced to kill both of her boyfriends/loves in order to fulfill her destiny as the only one who could destroy the ultimate evil). She has a large stubborn streak, always trying to assert herself, as her adoptive mother raised her to be independent and strong-willed. Which can be seen as a tad ironic, since she is nearly always the damsel-in-distress.
One of the biggest parts of Catty's personality is her general acceptance. She loves all manner of creatures, and if there's a worthy cause to stick up for someone or something, she's all over it. And she's probably the girl persuading everyone else to join the cause as well. Her acceptance also extends to people, another attribute she learned from her Muggle mother. As long as she feels that you have proved yourself trustworthy to her, she doesn't judge too harshly.
Background:
When Catty was six years old, her adoptive mother, a Muggle named Kendra, found her wandering around the desert in Arizona with no memories of her life before then except for a crash and a flash of bright light. This led Kendra to believe that her new daughter--whom she named Catty--was an alien, and surely if Kendra had left the girl there, the government would have held her in Area 51 her whole life for experimentation. Kendra has spent most of Catty's life protecting her from "government officials". She grew up in Los Angeles with Kendra, believing that the "odd things" she could do were all part of her extra-terrestrial heritage. Even after receiving her Hogwarts letter and having been there for four years prior to the events that led Catty to the truth, she continued to hold on to a small part of the alien theory, though a huge part of her realized she was really a witch.
In truth, Catty's parents are both pure bloods. Her father, Adamantis, is a well-known Dark Wizard who has suddenly disappeared. Her real mother, Zoe, died last year during Catty's 5th year, but not before being found by Catty and telling her the truth. Zoe had been an Auror, seduced by Adamantis into becoming a Dark Witch. It took years for Zoe to come to her senses, and by that time, they had had a young daughter. Even though she was madly in love with the monster, she could no longer stand the thought of keeping her only child under his thumb to be used to fulfill his ambitions. She escaped with their daughter, wiping Catty's mind to keep her safe before leaving her wandering in the United States, in the hopes that she would escape her father's plans.
It was with great regret that Kendra finally had to accept that Catty was really a witch and not an alien (though regardless of what her daughter is, she's very happy that Catty got to meet her real mother), but at least she still has a secret to keep from the officials at Area 51.
Blood: (full, half, muggle-born) Full, but raised by a Muggle.
Preferred House: Gryffindor
Why you think they belong in this house?
Even though there are a few similarities in Catty that would help her fit well in Slytherin (she can be very manipulative, she's a pure blood, cunning, and pretty resourceful when the time calls for it), she is best suited for the Gryffindor house. While she isn't the most responsible, she is very brave. She often goes out of her way, even to the point of danger (in her canon story, she ends up fighting the ultimate evil by herself, sacrificing her life for the good of the world to destroy it. Now, if that isn't recklessly courageous, what is? Heh) to save the people she loves.
School Year: 6th
