The Outer Layer
Physical Appearance; Poppy has long, beautiful red hair. It's naturally wavy, but she straightens it most of the time. She has fair, pale skin that never tans - she just burns when she's in the sun too much. She sometimes wears glasses to either read or whatever, but usually has contacts over her brilliantly green eyes.
The Inner Layer
Patronus; Fox
Boggart; Tornadoes
Strengths; Keeping secrets, keeping her grades up, being nice.
Weaknesses; Clumsy, stutters when speaking to guys, sometimes too quiet for her own good.
Personality; Poppy keeps mainly to herself. She has few select friends that she trusts, which makes everyone think she has trust issues. She doesn't exactly, just something really close to it - paranoia. She won't stop stuttering when she talks to guys, and is always blushing whenever someone looks at her.
But she is really good at keeping secrets, considering she never really talks. But she's been known to get caught passing a note or two in class.
Underneath her quietness, Poppy is really one of the sweetest girls you'll meet. She has all the Hufflepuff qualities. She's really loyal, and she'll do anything to help a friend in need.
The Past
History; Poppy was born into a normal family, a mom, a dad. She was the oldest, but her little brother died from a rare disease in his system when he was six months old. She had been twelve when that happened. She grew up a normal full-blood witch, happy with her parents and life.
When she was thirteen, though, something happened that changed her life and how she looks at things forever.
A tornado had been rolling in from the east, and was approaching fast. Her parents had put her into the bsaement like anyone should, but they couldn't put any protection around them because the tornado was caused by magic. There was nothing they could do.
They had gone to the neighbors house to help them after they put Poppy into the basement, and never came back. Their bodies had been tossed into the cold wind and rain, mutilated by tree branches.
Put You To The Test

Roleplay Sample; Poppy could hear the tornado sirens going off outside, and could practically feel the walls shaking from the force of the winds. She started shaking, goosbumps running up and down her arms. Her father ran over to her and put his large, calloused hands on her upped arms. "Poppy, darling. You have to go down into the basement now. We'll be with you soon."
The girl shook her head, terrified. She was so scared of the basement, and all the lights were out. All the flashlights were dead as well. Her father brushed back a strand of her red hair and looked into her eyes. "Please, darling. You have to go down in there. Only for a little while, okay?" Poppy finally gave in and let her father guide her down into the basement.
He kissed her forehead and set the only candle down next to her. "Take care down here. I love you. We'll be back soon." That was the last time she saw her father.
