physical description: The Basics: Standing five foot one, shorter than most. Blond haired, blue eyed, though they can be green, and physically described as small.
Build: Short and skinny. Generally, she isn’t one for gorging or anything, but that’s hardly the reason for her small frame. By definition, her entire family is known for their small builds, their delicate features. Her legs are her longest feature, and they themselves are rather thin. Skinny in the midsection, not well endowed(if you know what I mean), and nimble. She participated in a small group of dancing when she was younger, and feed her passion for dancing every summer, going off to camps and training for weeks at a time. Though all of this dancing gives most larger thighs and a bit of arm strength, she hardly shows any gained muscle mass, though she isn’t short in strength when is comes to the muscles she uses for dancing. Besides that, she’s simply thin, in a plain sort of fashion.
Face: A smooth, gentle jawline, round and beautiful green-blue eyes, a button nose and a pair of nice lips, though not quite luscious. Her eyes sit below a nice sized forehead, being either green or blue, depending on the day, though not necessarily her mood. Her small nose sit nicely below her rounded eyes, accented by her soft cheekbones, not being too definite, but not too unnoticeable. Her lips are pleasant enough, her upper lip being smaller, her bottom more profound. Over all, her face has a pleasant complexion, nothing horrible happening over her even skin tone. She’s not extremely pale, but she isn’t by any means tan.
Hair: Worn up, down or braided in any random assortment of manors, she’s got a nice head of hair. A lighter shade of blond, her hair has been taken care of, with no dead ends and no frayed back. The length is past her shoulder blade, though not much further. She has no intention of allowing it to become longer, but she doesn’t want it much shorter either. She seems to have found the perfect length for herself. She can do many things with her lengths, and she generally has rather nice hair.

overall history: Liliana was born to two pureblood people, who though very aware of their blood stature, did not choose to join sides with the Dark Lord in the first wizarding world. Instead, they moved far away from the war, into the oldest kingdoms of the world where the Dark Lord would hopefully over look their presence and leave them alone. With hardly any trouble from the dark forces, they began their family. Just out of Hogwarts, they had a son, soon followed by a daughter. They stopped having children after that for some time, instead trying to yet again avoid the Dark Lord and his armies. It wasn’t however, the year after Voldemort disappeared and the darkness receded, they had another child, a young girl that they lovingly named Liliana. It was at this time they moved back to London, in a smaller house then they would prefer, but still managing quite nicely. The eldest son was sent off to Durmstrang, where Liliana’s father had attended. Soon after, the eldest daughter was sent off to Beauxbatons.
For some time, the youngest daughter was left at home, her parents working furiously to maintain their house and their life, quickly gaining profit. While this money for another home was being gathered, the young daughter began to explore and discover. She soon found a love for all things strange, and it wasn’t long before she had discovered magic. Her abilities came fluent, and at a young age. It wasn’t long before she could enchant things simply by wanting them to be so, and things would do what she wanted if she wanted them too. It was odd to her parents, who hadn’t experienced a child as gifted as this, but they hardly had time to care, always working, always out of the house. Needless to say, Liliana hardly got any attention, and she learned how to entertain herself. She gained a deep fear of being left alone, as her parents would get home at dark and leave before the sun rose. Once in a while, they wouldn’t return home for a night. Eventually, it got to the point that they left for days and would return home, drunk and sick. Liliana was beaten several times by her drunk father for creating a world in their living room where she could play and climb through the tunnel she created from blankets and pillows. They didn’t like a dirty home.
When Liliana was nine, they moved to a much bigger home, huge compared to their last home. With nearly ten rooms and long, stretching hallways, she hardly had a lack of exploring to do. Before she was sent off to Hogwarts, she discovered every secret of the house, secret passageways and underground tunnels. She never told her parents, but by now, she had developed a strong hate for them, but only when they disregarded her as nothing more than a pest. They could be loving parents, or they could be hard hearted tyrants. However, the loving kindness was disappearing, and it wouldn’t be long before they hardly cared for her at all. While her older siblings went off to much more expensive, extravagant schools, she was sent off to Hogwarts, something that the family had never experienced before.
She was quickly sorted into the Ravenclaw house, though it would seem the hat had a difficult time deciding between Slytherin and Ravenclaw. However, her smarts outweighed whatever it was that might have put her in Slytherin, and there she went on to make many friends, and to gain an education that would surely help her out for life. Though she struggled with self worth, she is confident enough in herself to dress in mildly odd ways, though nothing comparable to Luna Lovegood, though she admired the girl. They are infact, in the same house and year. She only hopes now to be able to be strong and powerful, to gain all the knowledge in the world and to be the person that others would only wish, all while never treating anyone the way her parents did.

Wide round eyes peered out through the darkness, her delicate face reflecting the pale moonlight as the slowly stepped out of the castle, the darkness almost beyond what she thought she wanted to handle. Though she had wandered around the school most every night, she had never explored the outside world once the sun had gone down.
She wasn’t afraid of the dark, but rather the creatures that lurked within it. Inside the school, there wasn’t more of a worry than dealing with a few minor issues, such as the paintings, the moving stairs and possibly a few roaming staff members. However, outside, there was much more danger. Beasts roaming around could kill someone very quickly, teachers who found a student outside would surely do horrible things to them, and the darkness itself could swallow someone up and never let them go back, holding them as prisoner forever. She nearly shivered at the thought, but she continued anyways. Her small leather backpack, detailed with a single yellow flower, hung loosely around one of her shoulders, holding plenty of items that she could use. It was an enchanted bag, with the ability to hold many more items than most would imagine, though it did have its limits. She pulled her robes around her tightly, the cold air threatening to bite at her delicate skin.
She smiled, the thrill of an adventure brightening her mood instantly. She marched forward, though only through the shadows, sure to be positive that no one was following her, and that nothing was going to jump out of the shadows and eat her. Her wand was in hand, being very long for someone as short as herself. It was oversized, but great for charms and she loved it ever so much. Her smile hardly faded as she stumbled further into the darkness, her grace hardly preceding her when she couldn’t even see the ground she was walking on. The cool grass brushed against her bare ankles, having idiotically deciding to wear shorts beneath her robes. Her shoes, thin and worn but her favorites, were soaked already, the dew of a morning that would eventually come soaking into the fabric of her socks.
Brushing the hair from her face and putting the blond locks comfortably behind her ears, she continued on. Her confidence was building, her walk much more confident now. Off into the darkness she would go, exploring and discovering the secrets of a forest forbidden to so many. Seeing as she wouldn’t sleep for another few nights before she passed out with exhaustion, she would be back tomorrow night, to discover even more and to learn and expand her knowledge. Though not safe, she hardly cared for her own safety. The only problem was sneaking out of the school, but that would soon be easy enough. She had explored the school quite a bit and knew of a few of many places she could hide.
She continued forward, into the black of the night, her feet very wet.
