Full Name: Kaya Alicia Thestra
Gender: Female
Age, Birthplace & Date: 16, Isle of Man, January, 26
Bloodline: Half-Blood
-Appearance-
Hair: Platinum blond to the point it looks white, but it almost always has black streaks dyed into it and quite frequently get’s splashes of other colors as well when she experiments with charms, potions, or hair dyes. It reaches down to her butt and is usually braided.
Changed as of 12/13/11
Her hair reaches to just above her butt and is no longer streaked. She still occasionally dyes her hair however.
Eyes: light violet-gray, uses no makeup.
Body Type: slim, with easily visible bones. She almost looks sickly due to her thinness, and her thinness is accentuated by her 6’7” and growing height. Her parents hope she’ll fill out more once she stops shooting upward like a tree.
Changed as of 12/13/11
Now 7'2 and weighing 315 pounds, she has finally stopped growing up and her body has filled itself out in the correct proportions. Her measurements are 38-24-36, with a C-cup bra.
Unique Features: a scar on her chin from getting kicked by a horse when she was 3, she’s missing a piece off the top of her left ear from a thestral bite when she was 9, and she has the nub of a vestigial tail she was born with that was surgically removed at a muggle hostpital, but not perfectly.
Animagus: Black Arabian horse with white fetlocks, mane, and tail. Still in training on the process.
More Detailed Physical Description: Tall and thin with nearly white hair and an apparent love of ‘dark’ things a frequent joke about her is that she is the daughter of Death himself. While no such thing she is abnormally pale and avoids going into direct sunlight. This isn’t due to her being ‘allergic’ to sun or such, but she has albino genes and worries about cancer and other illnesses. She’s also unusually strong for her size, until you factor that every single ounce of her weight is either muscle, bone, or viscera, there is no fat on her body.

She now has more fat on her body, but none of it is useless.

-Personality-
Boggart: Death
Mirror of Erised: a successful crossbreed between a thestral and a horse, visible to wizards but not to muggles, and extremely fast and strong.
Patronus: An arctic wolf
Temperament/Allegiance: She mostly doesn’t care if it doesn’t affect her, but she is rule governed and will stand up for those who make the fairest rules.
Likes/Dislikes: Likes: Horses, flying horses, Care of Magical Creatures, Defense Against the Dark Arts, drawing, painting (badly), reading, writing, reading some more, sleeping whenever and wherever she can, hanging out with her friends, keeping in touch with her family, fruit, and pranks.
Dislikes: Dogs, spiders, Transfiguration, Astronomy (“Why do we have to know about the ruddy stars?”), boredom, video games, electronics (“All praise magic, no electric bunk!”), math or anything similar, swimming, diseases/illness of any sort, parasites, and meat.
Strong Points/Weaknesses: Strengths: Extremely rule governed (Almost never gets in trouble), cheerful, strong, good at studying, makes strong connections with people, is good with (most) animals.
Weaknesses: Extremely rule governed (couldn't bend the rules to save her life), can get super depressed on occasions, not so good at putting her wand to use, not so good at following directions, can get clingy with people, sees a dog or a spider and runs away screaming like a banshee.
Whims/Habits: Rambles when she writes, often daydreams about riding various equines and equine mixes, has a habit of chewing her hair, sucks her thumb at night, sleeps with a very threadbare stuffed horse, starts singing old songs from musicals with little to no provocation, can often be seen watching ‘something’ move around but will never say what it is, often asks the Hogwarts ghosts random questions, tries to befriend Peeves when she sees him because ‘everyone needs friends.’
Detailed Personality: Kaya is usually a very cheerful if ‘death obsessed’ girl who can go into periods of severe and almost suicidal depression. She makes very close friends and pushes everyone else away. She tries to avoid making enemies, but that’s truly impossible since she’s human. She hopes to grow up and create a successful hybrid between flying horses (particularly thestrals) and regular horses. While a ‘good student’ who always gets her homework done it’s generally better to not stand near her when she’s got her wand out because she seems to have an issue where-in her wand tends to make everything she points it at explode unless she utters the actual spell she’s trying to use, and even then sometimes things turn into shrapnel. She’s rather embarrassed about this and too many failures tend to make her dissolve into a puddle of tears at her ‘unworthiness’ to be a witch.

-Character History-
Kaya was the third born child in her family and is the only witch. This didn’t really manifest itself until her first time on a horse, when said horse did a perfect dressage run through. The horse had never been trained in dressage. When she was 3 her little sister was born and, happy to no longer be the youngest, she did everything a 3 year old can do to help with her youngest sibling. Her twin and older brother wanted nothing to do with the infant Lindsay and would rather spend their time in the stables with the horses their mother boarded and worked with for shows and jumping competitions.
Kaya proved her magic when Lindsay was two years old and she was five, calming her younger sister during a freak storm with small glowing balls of light that she produced from nowhere. That was when her father talked to her about magic. She was ecstatic, but also worked hard to not show off in front of her siblings. As far as Katy was concerned it was just one more thing that made her ‘opposite twin’ a freak.
The year after that the Thestra family was ready to add yet another member to their growing family, but young Drew died before he ever left the hospital. Following that Kaya could see her father’s thestrals and she started to help him with them. She and Lindsay had been the only ones besides her parents to see Drew die, but Lindsay was too young to see thestrals at all. Kaya fell in love with the thestrals and helped her father with them whenever she could. Feeding, helping move them from one pasture to another, she was never allowed to get too close to them, but she was glad to just watch the skinny black creatures. When she got her letter to Hogwarts her father was more than just happy and he gave her a nearly black great gray owl to carry her mail and let her pick one of that years thestral foals to care for whenever she was home.
With Poe’s cage under her arm and a bracelet made from the tail hairs of Hippocrates on her left wrist and her wand in her pocket she went off to Hogwarts for her first year of mischief, classes, and nearly blowing herself to pieces 6 times, falling off a broom twice, and deciding that she was better off staying a spectator for all air-based sports. The following years were more of the same, with a very large bruise being granted by a certain semi-sentient tree in her fifth year. Now she’s back and ready for more!

[The "Real you"

Disposable time : eh… not too much, going into my first year of college but I miss RPing and I like Harry Potter…

Kaya yawned, rolling over. It was late and the common room was mostly empty, but she had to keep studying. She had a transfiguration test tomorrow and she STILL couldn’t do the proper spell. She growled in frustration, trying it again and turning a cup into a bowl… with a stand. It fell over almost immediately, breaking on the flagstones. She sighed and repaired it, turning it back into a cup in the process.
“Why can’t I get this right?” a small piece of white-blond hair found its way to her mouth and was violently chewed on. She shifted, taking some of her weight off of her bony butt and putting it on her elbow, which now rested on the arm of the chair she was in. She read the page again, detailing the spell and wand movements before sighing.
“Okay. Let’s try this again Kaya. Kiss Hippos bracelet for luck” She did “and go.” She pointed her wand and thought the spell. She was horrible when she spoke the spell, not speaking it just seemed to make it a little worse. This time the cup changed into a plate with a nasty bulge in the middle. She sighed and let it turn back into a cup.
“This is going to be a very. Long. Night.” She sighed and went back to the page as a clock somewhere chimed midnight.
