Full Name: Alana Maria Josefina Baker-Combs
Age: 38
Sex: Female
Bloodline: Halfblood. Pureblood father; Muggle mother
Any Family At Hogwarts?: Two sons, Ben and Jonathan. They're 14 and 4th years.
A daughter, Charity. She's 12 and a 2nd year.
Wand: 12 ¼ in; Beech; Phoenix Feather; swishy
Position(s) Desired: Muggle Studies Professor
Why you should be hired: I've wanted to be a teacher ever since I left Hogwarts, but once the twins were born, they became my top priority. Now that all my children are school-aged, I want to fulfill my dream.
Personality: Lana’s personality is as unpredictable as the wind. One moment, she may be your best friend, but if you cross her, she’ll turn on you in a heartbeat. Odds are, she won’t like you until she gets to know you, and maybe not even then. She’s loyal to her friends, but is not a forgiving person. Once you lose her trust, it’s hard to get it back.
Lana lives for music. She can’t live without it, and is seldom seen doing anything that’s not music-related. She also loves her family. They’re her security blanket, and she’d do anything for them.
Lana hates people who are overly perky and upbeat. She also hates sunlight and Hufflepuffs.
Lana has a bad habit of running from her problems. She also has a bad habit of speaking before she thinks. She rolls her eyes alot, and her right eyebrow is raised so often that people fear it may stick that way.
Her ambition. Once Lana knows what she wants, she’ll do whatever it takes to get it, although it sometimes takes her awhile to figure out what it is she wants. She knows what’s important in life, and doesn’t let trivial things get in the way of more important ones. She finds strength in her family, and doesn’t know what she’d do without them.
Her emotions. Lana often lets her emotions get in the way of her rational thinking. If she believes she’s been wronged, she has a hard time forgiving. She’s not very trusting, and she’s very indecisive.
Appearance:
Eyes: Honey brown in color; but they turn dark brown whenever she’s lying or angry. They’re large and round, unless she’s glaring at someone, which is often. She has perfect vision, which she’s very proud of.
Hair: Lana has brown hair that falls just past her shoulders. She’s usually wears it down, but every once in awhile she’ll get bored and do something different.
Height: 5’11”. Tallness runs in her family.
General Appearance: Based on her appearance, you may think that Lana is the typical nice girl. Her round face and inviting eyes have fooled many people over the years.
Lana's eyes can appear welcoming when she wants them to. The honey brown pupils sometimes glow when she's in a good mood. However, hidden in the light-colored depths is an evil force dying to get out.
Lana is a toned girl. She's an attractive girl, and she takes great care to keep her naturally tanned body in shape. She has no freckles, but she does have a few moles on her legs. She has a bird-shaped birthmark on her left shoulder, and a tattoo of a bleeding rose on her lower back.
Lana's tall, reaching a height of 5'11''. Her height gives her a graceful look. She carries herself very well, always making sure that her posture is impeccable.
Lana has dark brown hair. For the longest time, her locks reched down to her waist. When she was ijust beginning her fourth year at Hogwars, she felt that she needed a change, and cut off her hair that she treasured so much. Now it falls just past her shoulders.
Lana's style has changed much over the years. When she was a young child, her father always made her wear fancy dresses, which she hated. Once she entered Hogwarts, she began to show a little more of her own individuality. She started wearing pants more, and the colors gradually got darker and darker, until her wardrobe consisted of mostly black clothes. As she got into her late teens, she added a little "preppiness" to her wardrobe.
Sample Post: Lana looked around the empty room that had been her home for five years. The mere sight of the room was beginning to make her nauseous. She was glad that she was finally able to leave it behind, along with the memories that had been plaguing her for the longest time. The murders, the fights, the heartache, she could finally put it all behind her.
Of course, there was still a part of her that didn’t want to leave. This had been her home for five years. She was nervous, packing up and moving halfway across the world, but it was something she knew in her heart that she had to do. If she remained at Hogwarts any longer, she’d either go crazy or do something else that she’d end up regretting. She decided not to dwell on the thought any longer. She exited the room without a backward glance, closing the door behind her, hoping against hope that she’d never have to open it again.
