You look pretty low
Very handsome awkward"
Full Name»»
Akira "Kira" Nessa Wood
Date Born»» [/b]
May Twenty-Sixth
Age»» [/b]
Seventeen
Year»» [/b]
Seventh
Gender»» [/b]
Female
Religion»» [/b]
Atheist.
Oliver had always been Atheist, but he always let his daughter believe what she wanted to believe. Akira had always been a curious child, and she had done a lot of research growing up on Religion. She knows an awful lot about any number of religions, however, Akira could never really find something she believed in, and thus figured out she was an Atheist like her father.
Sexual Orientation»» [/b]
Kira has often experimented with females, but she tends to lean toward men. Akira most likely leans this way because she always feels more secure with guys, especially since she was raised by one.
Pet/s/»» [/b]
Lily
Lily is the youngest of Akira's three cats. Lily is incredibly friendly, just like Akira, and has a knack for getting into all sorts of things, be it trouble or some random hidey hole in the house. Lily tends to be loud, unless she's trying to hide so she can creep up on you. She likes people to know and be aware of where and what she is.
Annabel
Annabel is the second youngest. Annabel's a shy cat, only coming to one of three people willingly, and that would be Akira, Oliver, or Gavin. She doesn't make special appearances, as Lily or Blaine would, when company is over. She tends to be a very quiet cat, and always knows when Akira needs company.
Blaine
The oldest, and most stubborn of them all, is Blaine. He's the one Akira takes to Hogwarts, merely because he's the oldest. She's had him at Hogwarts for a while, so he's used to it, and she knows it would be incredibly unsettling if she were to bring one of the other two to the school, especially Annabel. Blaine is a very social cat, running up to almost anyone that comes to talk to Kira. But, of course, he can always sense if there is some tension between his favorite girl and someone else, and then he will, without a doubt, stay close to Kira and try to defend her. Blaine doesn't like to listen to anyone but Kira.
Blood Status»» [/b]
Pure-blood.
Wand»» [/b]
6 inch, oak wood with dragon heartstring core.

personality.
personality.
First Impression»» [/b]
There's a certain sense of security that radiates off of Akira. People tend to gravitate toward her, or away from her, and there is never an in between. They either enjoy the enthusiasm she brings with her, and that special feel of comfort, or they hate everything about her. Kira loves to be around people, and she loves to talk. She's often making new friends -- or enemies.
Aside from that, Kira almost always has a smile planted on her small face. She is almost always genuinely happy to see and meet new people, unless they happen to radiate arrogance off of them. Kira doesn't really get along with many Slytherins for this reason; Even though there have been a few who tend to be fairly nice, Kira doesn't really enjoy being around the snake-like humans.
Self Image»» [/b]
Akira doesn't find herself ugly, but she doesn't fall in love with the mirror every time she sees one. She knows she's pretty, but she doesn't use that to her advantage. Akira likes to play it down, and often dismisses any look a guy gives her. She knows she's pretty, but she isn't about to draw attention to that fact. Akira finds girls that flaunt the way they look to get what they want highly annoying; She'd rather dress it down and get along in life without all the petty girl things.
When it comes to clothing, Kira's sense of style bounces all over the place. On some days, you can find her in hippy-esque clothing, and on others, completely punk-rocked out. It doesn't matter to her; As long as she's comfortable and confident in what she's wearing, she's happy to wear it.
Positive Traits»» [/b]
- Encouraging -- A trait most likely inherited from her father, Akira is almost always the first one to speak up and encourage others. She hates when the atmosphere around her lacks the confidence and tends to be overbearing in laziness and fear of not succeeding. Akira doesn't know why, but she always seems to find the right words to pick up a group's spirit, and she can almost always encourage a friend.
- Caring -- Kira can't stand to see someone upset. She has a weak heart, and even if she hates the person, the second they get upset, she's like putty in their hands. Kira will go to no ends trying to make someone feel better, be it her best friends or someone she just met only seconds ago. She'll put down whatever she's doing just to make that person feel better. Kira has always got open arms, and she's ready to hand out hugs and kind words at the drop of a hat.
- Confident -- Akira has enough confidence for herself and her friends. Though this isn't to say that she is over confident. All it is is that she knows what she wants and how to get it, and she won't let anything get in her way. It also means that if her friend isn't confident about something, Kira most likely is, and will help her friend become more confident and ready for the situation that will be or is at hand.
- Apathy -- Kira has developed a certain feel of apathy toward anyone who tries to do her harm. This is a good thing because she rarely ever gets her feelings hurt, and she tries her best to let this rub off on others. However, she doesn't succeed, so she settles for being their support and iron grip. However, just because Akira is apathetic to most comments, her apathy tends to wear out when it comes to keeping her temper in check.
- Loyal -- Akira has undying loyalty to any and all of her friends and family. In many ways, she is like a dog, always there for you and happy to do so, and she won't leave your side, especially when you need her most. She has a knack for knowing, even if the words try to direct her otherwise, that she is needed.
- Flirty -- Though she doesn't like to draw attention to this, Akira is incredibly flirty. She loves boys, especially the cute ones, and can't help herself. Half the time she doesn't know she's even doing it, but she often finds herself with the attention of someone, be it male or female, and either works fine by her.
Negative Traits»» [/b]
- Weak Hearted -- The fact that Akira has such a big heart is also one of her biggest downfalls. At the sight of any tears, whatever emotion Akira felt beforehand is quickly replaced with worry and concern. She'll immediately try and make someone feel better, and thus becomes extremely vulnerable. There have been multiple times where Akira has been deceived because of this.
- Temper
[/li][li]Blunt -- Though honesty can get you far, it hasn't done a thing for Akira, but that hasn't stopped her from sharing exactly what's on her mind. She has often gotten herself into quite a few thick spots with people by being incredibly blunt; It's not that she doesn't care, it's just that some things come out of her mouth before she can figure out how to word them better. She generally thinks before she gives advice, but she's almost always a bit too blunt at the worst of times.
[/li][li]Daring -- Though some people might consider daringness a good quality, Akira's family does not. She has been known to do dangerous things upon a bet or some silly impulse, and she has often found herself in the care of some nurse or another. It was because of this that her brother had gotten the knack for healing spells and such.
[/li][li]Obnoxious -- What some people consider friendly, other people consider obnoxious. There has been many a time where someone has told Kira that she is obnoxious to her face. This fact neither pleases nor hurts her. She sees herself as a happy-go-lucky, incredibly friendly, and carefree person, while some see her as an obnoxious, stupid, over-excited girl. It's all a point of view.
[/li][/ul]
Likes»» [/b]
- Music
[/li][li]People[/b][/color] -- Akira is a people person. She loves to be around them, to watch them, to talk to them, etc. Her world revolves around interaction with others, and she knows all too well that if it weren't for other people, she might not be getting along so well.
[/li][li]Cats[/b][/color] -- All though cats aren't social animals, Akira tends to love them beyond belief. She has one cat at school, and another two at home, which keep her father company, and he as well to them.
[/li][li]Home -- As much as Akira loves Hogwarts, she often finds herself missing home. She misses the smell of her father, and the many broomsticks around the house. She misses her brother, who always took good care of her as a child. She misses their cozy home. Akira's a girl huge on family, and she often writes home, even if she has little to nothing to write about.
[/li][li]Warmth -- Kira loves all things warm. She loves the summer and the spring. She loves a good hot fire crackling away in the fireplace on the winter. She loves the bright dazzling sun. And she loves snuggling up to people, be it cute boys or her good friends, and embracing the warmth that they give off.
[/li][li]Nature -- Kira is a hippy at heart. She loves being outdoors, around the world and all things within it. She loves the green grass, the trees, the sparkling waters, and the dozens of colorful flowers. She could spend hours on end laying in the middle of a wild field, and never find herself tired of it.
[/li][li]Colored Contacts -- Kira's eye color often changes, and this surprises some people. It is not a known trait for someone in the magical world to have magically changing eye colors. However, Kira has taken one step past this, and taken a liking to the muggles' invention of colored contacts. She'll use any color from bright blue to a deep violet, and she enjoys this greatly. She likes the variety it adds to her daily look.
[/li][li]Hands -- To Kira, hands are the most beautiful thing on any body's body. She loves the look and feel of them. She can almost always find herself admiring someone's hands, especially a guy's hands. Her favorite, when it comes down to it, has to be a pair of long, thin hands, with long fingers. Kira could sit and play with someone's hands for hours. She loves the tendons in the hands, and loves the way they move and do things. Akira apperciates anyone with a good set of hands.
[/li][li]Cars -- You know, those muggle things that go fast and make the noise 'vroom vroom'? Kira adores them. It's probably her favorite muggle invention, and she could spend hours on end looking at them and exploring them. She has such a big fascination with them that her dad bought her an old, broken down mustang just for her to toy around with.
[/li][/ul]
Dislikes»» [/b]
- Dogs -- Akira is not a dog person. She has a hard time being around the animal, and if she's lucky, she's able to keep herself from shaking upon meeting one. There are the few dogs of her friends that she has come to love, but she most often can't stand being around dogs.
- Crying -- As much as Akira loves to be there for people when they cry, she absolutely can't stand it when she sheds a tear. When she feels the urge coming on, Akira gets angry, and then it disappears. On the rare chance that she can't stop the tears from coming out, Akira ends up in an extremely pissed off mood. And a pissed off Kira is something that people do not see often.
- Slytherin
[/li][li]Blood Purity[/u][/color] -- If there's one thing that Akira can't stand about herself, it's the fact that she is pure-blooded. She hates the way that she gets attention over it from Slytherins, and other people who are so concerned over having pure-blood. She hates when people sneer at her and ask her why she's hanging around blood-traitors, half-bloods, and muggle borns, as if that they were all tainted and diseased. Akira often finds herself wishing that she wasn't pure-blooded. Why couldn't her father have fell in love with another muggle, like her older brother's mother, when it came to her?
[/li][li]Being Caged -- Akira hates being indoors for more than a couple of hours. Rain or shine, Kira will make every move she can to weave her way out the door. She doesn't mind getting wet and dirty, as long as she's outdoors. She hates the feeling of being caged in, and being indoors almost always creates that particular feeling for her.
[/li][li]Freshly Cut Grass -- As much as Akira loves being outdoors, and everything about being outdoors, she finds it hard to like the smell of freshly cut grass. The smell often stings her nostrills, preventing her from breathing in or out correctly, and she often chokes. She hates the feeling of choking, and freshly cut grass happens to be one of the things that triggers it.
[/li][li]Cold Hands -- Akira doesn't like cold hands. She's a very affectionate person, and enjoys touching other people, especially their hands. Kira finds hands one of the most beautiful parts of any body. But she doesn't like them when they're cold. Sure, she can live with them, but she likes warm hands better.
[/li][li]Feet -- Kira hates feet. She doesn't mind them when they're on the ground, away from her face, with shoes and socks on. But she absolutely can't stand naked feet. She doesn't even like her own feet. People find this a weird quirk of hers, but she doesn't care. She hasn't been able to look at feet and think anything good about them.
[/li][/ul]
Amortentia»» [/b]
Wild flowers, a warm fire on a cold winter night, fresh rain, oak trees.
Boggart»» [/b]
Big, scary, barking dogs.
Patronus»» [/b]
A wolf.
Though Akira is afraid of almost every dog, she has learned to accept the fact that her patronus turns into the animal she can't stand. Wolves are generally social beings, as are dogs, and Akira is well aware of this fact.

Smile -- There always seems to be a big, welcoming smile plastered onto Akira's face. And this smile is never to be mistaken for insincere. Akira doesn't feel the need to force her emotions, and the fact that she generally loves the world and all the people in it keeps the big, bright smile on her face.
Dress Style»» [/b]
When it comes to clothing, Kira's sense of style bounces all over the place. On some days, you can find her in hippy-esque clothing, and on others, completely punk-rocked out. It doesn't matter to her; As long as she's comfortable and confident in what she's wearing, she's happy to wear it. She doesn't find fashion something that she needs to waste time worrying about.

Family»» [/b]
Father -- Oliver Wood
Mother -- Pansy Parkison
Half-brother, father's side -- Gavin Wood
Half-sister, mother's side -- Sofia Flint
Past»» [/b]
- "I don't want it," Pansy whispered, the disgust and hatred clearly audible in her voice. She was standing before Oliver, her arms crossed over her chest tightly, as the small baby between them cried impatiently for food. Pansy had shown up at Oliver's house not even ten minutes ago, barely going through the explanation on how the baby was even born. She hadn't bothered contacting Oliver after their one-night stand nine months ago, and when she showed up at the door, the child held as far away from her body as she could get it, Oliver had been surprised.
"You can't just show up on my doorstep and expect me to take a child I did not know about," Oliver said, shaking his head. He looked down as the small three-year old tugged on his pant leg, looking curiously at the little girl before them. He quickly touched her face, settling himself down next to the crying baby. The baby stopped not soon after, and then Oliver's heart broke. She was so innocent, and if he didn't take her, what would become of her? "Fine, Pansy. But don't you forget about her. She's special."
"Special," Pansy snorted. "She's a curse. She wasn't meant to be, and you know it. All she'll ever do is mess up my life with Marcus."
"Always the selfish one," Oliver said, bending down to pick up the small girl. Gavin scooted over, not willing to let the little creature out of his sight. "What's her name?"
"Didn't give her one," Pansy said quickly, as if dismissing it all. "This is the end of it all, Oliver. Don't expect to hear from me again." With a flourish of black cloaks trailing behind her, Pansy turned on her heel, slamming the door behind her and never looking back again at the child she had birthed. - From that day on, Oliver would never mention a word to either of his children about Pansy Parkison-Flint. No matter how many times Akira would ask her father of her mother's where-abouts, he wouldn't answer her. All he would tell her was that he loved her very much and she shouldn't worry about the mother that wasn't there. It would take years for Akira to learn that her mother had never wanted her, and viewed her as an unfortunate accident and disgrace to her life, dumping her onto Oliver. However, learning this didn't make her hate her father at all. She knew, day by day, that his love for her only grew, and he never forgot to remind her of it. If there was one question he never failed to answer, it was the question of what he first thought when he saw the little baby girl he'd always wanted.
- Akira grew up a relatively normal childhood. She had a family that loved and cared for her, a plethora of fun and interesting friends, and many pets. She had always been a lover of animals, and her father knew this. So he got her a dog for her sixth birthday. Kira was so happy and thrilled. A dog! A brilliant, cute, exuberant dog, all to her own.
However, the feeling was short-lived. It would only be days until the dog lost its temper and lashed out on Kira. No one ever knew why the dog was so vicious, or why it had even been allowed to be adopted anyway, but Oliver quickly made the decision to get rid of it as Kira cried and bleed in his arms. He hated seeing his precious baby girl this way, and Gavin did as well. The next day, the dog was taken away to the pound, and quickly replaced with a cute, playful little kitten, bringing Akira's spirits up.
She would never heal emotionally from the incident with the dog. - Oliver, Gavin, and Akira were thrilled the day she got her acceptance letter to Hogwarts. It wasn't a mystery to her as a child that she held special magical talents, that most muggles wished they could possess, even though they had no idea that such wishes were real. Kira was absolutely excited that she was going to the same school that, not only her brother attended, but her father as well. She was excited to be seeing the same Quidditch team, if only different people, that her father had become attached to.
She arrived at Hogwarts less then a few months later, her trunk in hand, and a big smile plastered onto her face. She was ready for whatever the magical school would throw at her, and even more ready for the opportunity to make plenty friends. However, she wasn't aware that people wouldn't like her, and this fact surprised her. Almost everyone she had met in her life had loved her beyond no ends, but Akira wouldn't let this fact bother her. She'd quickly develop a certain numbness toward any rude comment made toward her, and would devote herself to making sure others felt loved and cared for.
It was at Hogwarts that Akira would find out how much she hated the stupid fad called blood-purity. It was never a mystery to her that she had pure-blood. Her father had said something about it so many years ago -- how he and she were pureblooded, but Gavin was half -- but it didn't seem to matter much to him, and it didn't matter much to Akira either. However, the second she stepped foot into the Great Hall for the first time, her excitement drained a way upon seeing a long table decked in green. She knew instantly what they were, her father telling her the four houses before she came, but he said nothing about who they were. And a certain negative feeling was radiating off the lot of them toward her. A certain feeling that Kira knew she wasn't fond of.
Later on in the year, she'd be approached. She learned quickly that Slytherins were very much in love with the thought of all wizards being pureblood, and once people knew that she was, too, they wanted her. Kira would often try and hide herself among half-bloods, 'blood traitors', and muggle borns, but this didn't seem to help the situation. They ended up putting down the people she talked to, and Kira was sick of it. So she stood up for what she believed in. And what Kira believed in was that everyone was the same; Equal. One. Blood purity didn't matter, and it still doesn't.
One of Akira's biggest goals is to rid the world of the blood-purity craze, though she knows her dream is incredibly far-fetched.
