PERSONALITY: Sky is your classic “sarcastic bitch”, with a twist. At first glance, she seems like your classic Janis Ian, Heather Duke even, you get the idea. While she can be a bit of a bitch at times, she means well in the end, and she tries to be as frank and as honest with people as possible. This goes to the point of being brutally honest, but hey, it’s better than lying. She’s probably the most morally sound rebel bitch you will ever meet, no blackmail, no lies, no stealing. However…there is one thing she will always keep a secret, and that is her lycanthorpy. While she can come off a bit bossy or aggressive, she always tends to shake it off. After all….we all know about the discrimination against werewolves…
However, underneath that “sarcastic bitch” exterior is really a fiery, intelligent rebel. She’s actually really smart, but doesn’t want to give off anything that’ll further degrase her social status, so to speak. Sky is extremely opinionated, unafraid to speak her mind, but only around the people she actually calls her friends. Despite being a total ambivert, she doesn’t have many real friends, and it will take a lot for her to open up to you. But if you do? She can and will stay by your side through thick and thin.
BACKSTORY: Sky was born to Solomon Jones, a Iranian-born Pureblood who came from a long line of Seers and Parseltongues (or both, the generations go too far back), and Shoshana Jonesy (nee’ Porter), a American-born Muggleborn witch who came from a line of Native American wizards, who had since died out before her. Her mother died soon after giving birth to her of cancer, leaving her single father to take care of her. He was often free on business, so he hired nannies to take care of her. However, Solomon soon remarried to a woman named Diana Normani, a half-blood witch who…had some interesting traits, when Sky was 6. And for a while….life was good.
Except the screaming matches through the walls. The constant fighting, Sky knew something was up. The question was: what? So one day, a 9-year-old Skylar creeped down the stairs long after she was supposed to have gone to bed, and dared to go outside the house, for she thought she’d seen her stepmother frequently outside the past few days. And when she came out….as you may or may not expect, a werewolf, who could only possibly be her stepmother leapt at her and tried to kill her. THANKFULLY, her father heard the commotion and came outside just in time, but it was too late…partially, for Sky was now officially a werewolf. Remember, she’s 9 and has no way to know this.
Her next few years prior to her life at Hogwarts were filled with what felt like pain and suffering. Her father thankfully divorced her stepmother, but her transformations were every month, isolated and alone, filled with excruciating pain. She tried to get through them, but as she got older, she knew she wouldn’t be able to hold on forever.
Now….I wanna leave the backstory of her time at Hogwarts leading up to now shown in the roleplay….what has exactly occured so far? After all, a person is only shaped so much by their backstory as they are by the people they are with….
