personality.
personality.
First Impression»» [/b]
Roxanne appears to quiet, introverted, and cold. She's painfully shy, and people often mistake that for her disliking them. When she does open her mouth(which is rare), the words are usually followed by an awkward silence. Not because what she says is weird, but because she is very articulate, and people are surprised. Not to mention she usually only talks when someone says something she disagrees with, and thus has to prove them wrong. Most people consider her a loner, and someone is who is cold and dispassionate about everything.
Self Image»» [/b]
Roxy thinks very badly about herself, and is quite open about it, if you ask her. She considers herself not worth peoples time, and anything she has to say worthless. She doesn't enjoy being in the spotlight because she worries that people will be disappointed. She's not shy and quite because she's introverted, but because she believes that people don't want to hear what she has to say. This stems from the fact that's she's had to keep up with her parents her entire life. Both energetic, passionate, and in George's case, funny people, Roxy felt she could never measure up to her parents legacy. Her dead Uncle was constantly mentioned, both by George and Angelina, and Roxanne tried her best to appear as much like Fred as possible in her early years. Sense no one can be someone else, she failed. She considered herself an insult to her parents, and hid inside herself.
Positive Traits»» [/b]
- Curious- Roxanne has a tremendous thirst for answers and knowledge. If something seems interesting, Roxanne will pursue it. Something weird going on? Roxanne will investigate it. Her motto could very well be "Curiosity killed the cat, but satisfaction brought it back." Not only that, but she has the capability to be interested in all most anything, if she tries. As a result, she succeeds in almost all her classes, because she can relate them back to her own interests.
- Articulate- While Roxy may say little, when she does talk, people are surprised at her intelligent use of words. She's a big writer, and almost always has a blank book and pencil handy. She's able to express herself clearly, and even beautifully. She is even funny, though not in the goofy of her father, but in a more witty, dry way.
- Caring- This may surprise many people, but once you get through her shell, Roxanne is a very caring person. Though she may have few friends, she loves them all deeply, and would gladly take a bullet for them. She also has a passion for justice and welfare for all people, and animals. When something bad happens in the news, she'll go off by herself to cry. In short, she's extremely empathetic.
- Focused- On the rare occasion Roxy sets her mind to do something, she is able to do it. She isn't easily distracted and works hard to get what she wants. She has immense determination, but not to the point of being stubborn. For example, she decided to wanted to make music along with just listening, she found the cheapest keyboard she could find that was quality, and taught herself using old books and the internet. She approaches things in an organized manner, and she gets it done.
- Cautious- Among the words that describe Roxanne, impulsive isn't one of them. She carefully makes all decisions and weighs the consequences and rewards with precision. She's rarely made a decision she regrets because of this. She's able to exercise control, something rare in most teeangers.
Negative Traits»» [/b]
- Fearful- There is darker side to Roxanne's caution. She's also incredibly fearful, almost to the point of paranoia. She constantly thinking about what could happen, and the fear of the bad ones overwhelms her. She often avoids doing that involves risk because of this. She doesn't take any chances. However, if she does and nothing bad happens, she'll be able to do so again.
- Underachiever- Due to the fact that Roxanne believes she will never amount to anything, she aspires to nothing. She literally considered being a bum for a while. She doesn't really care what happens her to, and has few long term goals. Or any goals. She could achieve quite a bit, but due to her fear she prefers to sit on the sidelines and do half her best, because that make's her less vulnerable. She's a rigid follower of "better safe than sorry."
- Shy- Painfully so. Roxanne hates being in the spotlight or the center of attention because she's more vulnerable that way. She also considers herself not worth people's time, and as a result, she keeps away from most social situations. Mostly those involving strangers. Trying to become her friend is an uphill battle, as will unconsciously fight it every step of the way. She often beats herself up for not shining, but at the same time lacks the belief that she can shine.
- Indecisive- One reason that Roxanne is an underachiever is that she can't decide what to achieve. She hates making decisions, and having to choose. As a result, most of her life she had no idea where she was going. She also may decide she will do something, only to back out later. She has no plan, and no way to get a plan, because she gets worried about giving up other options, of the risks of each option.
- Untrusting- Because she can't trust herself, Roxy trusts few. Even most of those close to her do not posses her trust. Trusting someone means that you are willing to be vulnerable around them, and to Roxy that equates instant hurt. She doesn't have any faith in people, or morality and goodwill.
Likes»» [/b]
- Listening to Music, particularly punk and grunge. She's a big fan of the riot grrrl and grunge movement, even though she's rather disconnected from the world. See history.
- Playing her keyboard. She gets lost in the sounds, ala Regina Spektor. It's her escape and her way she expresses herself in ways she can't socially.
- Politics, in particular feminism. She frequently can be found reading third-waver texts, such as Manifesta. She's not sure what she found attractive at the movement rather than, well, equal rights. She's experienced no more sexism than the average girl, but she just feels a need for it.
- Underground culture. She enjoys the motion and emotion of it all. The craziness and the acceptence. What can I say, it's her scene.
- Animals. Especially cats. They are just her type of thing, though she doesn't have any at the moment. She hopes to get a kitten soon, though.
- Writing. It's he life, the way to expresses herself, and so on. She can often be seen with a notebook and pen.
- Coffee and tea. She takes it black. She love caffeine, but hates the taste of most sodas and energy drinks.
- Knitting, sewing, all that jazz. She loves personalizing and making her own clothes. And doing stuff with her hands. They go together rather nicely.
Dislikes»» [/b]
- Meat. She loves animals far to much to eat them. It just makes her weirded out that she is eating dead flesh. Creeps her out and makes her feel disgusting.
- Sexism, Racism, bigotry in general. Not only her upbringing, but she's a firm believer in equality, possibly because it helps her fight her own feelings of deficiency.
- Her name. There are far to many jokes you make based on a single song. She tends to go by Roxy because of it.
- The spotlight- She hates being under eyes or being vulnerable.
- Fancy clothing- No good for fun! They are uncomfortable and unpractical. Enough said.
- Energy drinks and soda. They taste weird, and far to sugary. An insult to caffeine.
- Sweets in general. She just doesn't like overly sugary stuff.
- Proud idiots. Being stupid is one thing, being proud of it, or scorning people who aren't, is another. A much worse other.
Amortentia»» [/b]
New leather, old books, rain
Boggart»» [/b]
Her father conforming her worst year: she doesn't amount to Fred.

Height»» [/b]
5'8
Weight»» [/b]
120
Eye Color»» [/b]
Brown
Hair Color»» [/b]
A fairly long, dark brown, thick head of hair.
Skin Color»» [/b]
Ranges from regular, though not ruddy, peach to a very light brown, depending on the season and light.
Body Build»» [/b]
Skinny almost to the point of being frightening. It's not that she has an eating disorder(though she frequently accused of such), but rather the combination of a fast metabolism and being a vegetarian.
Nationality»» [/b]
Her fathers side is English, but her mothers side is a good mix. Her grandfather was a muggle whose ancestors wereCaribbean slaves. Her grandmother was from a South African and a woman from India. The result was Angelina, who passed on this rich heritage on to her Daughter.
Distinctive Features»» [/b]
Her build is certainly something to gawk at, as she looks something like pole. As the saying goes, if she turns to the side and stick's out her tongue, she will do a perfect zipper imitation. She's very distinctive looking, but no can quite seem to place it.
Dress Style»» [/b]
Comfort in first and foremost with Roxy. She prefers to take plain clothing and then make them her own, usually via paints or sharpie. Her robes are all a light gray, and she draws on them with a red fabric marker. When not in uniform, she can usually be seen in a hoody, skinny jeans, and her trademark red combat boots, which are her babies. She has a seperate, black pair for work and mosh pits.

Social Status»» [/b]
Roxy is known mostly around the school as a loner. She has a few friends and runs in a couple social circles, but more often than not she's seen alone. Some consider her freak, some think that she's awesome, but more the most part, people are apathetic towards her. Due to her looks and "Mysterious" aspect, she's been asked out by boys several times, but she's never liked any of them(at least enough to go out with them). I suppose one could say that she doesn't really have a social status, because she doesn't really care.

TOR
Career Goal»» [/b]
Due to her introverted nature and uninterest in magic, Roxy had a hard time figuring out what she wanted to do. She finally decided that she wanted to be a freelance journalist, and maybe start her own feminist witch journal. Roxanne also loves playing her keyboard, but decided to let that be a hobby.

Hated Classes»» [/b]
Potions. She just can't wrap her head around it. And it inspires absolutely no creativity. She dropped it as soon as she could.

I'm far to lazy to list the entire Weasley family, I'll take those one at a time.
Past»» [/b]
- Roxanne was born to a very excited George and Angelina Weasley. Two other children were welcomed into the Weasley family around that time, Dominique Weasley and James Potter. As the children grew, things became a contest. They were the eldest, with the exception of Victorie, who was always far to old to be involved in most of their activities. Dominique had beauty and kindness, James his ability to excel in many magical areas. Roxanne was nice looking, but there was no comparing with someone with Veela blood. She was decent with magic, but not anywhere near James.
Most expected her to be funny like her father and deceased uncle before her. She tried her hardest, but her father's humor was just not her own. When it became clear she was not going to be the next Weasley firecracker, she retreated into herself, hoping that maybe no one would notice what a failure and insult to her family she felt she was. She lost herself in her studies, hoping to excel there. But Rose beat her to it.
One of the few things Roxy recalls fondly her bonding with her grandfather. From a very young age, she shared his fascination with Muggles. He would often read her Muggle children's book when she at the Burrow. When she got older, he attempted to teach her science, and they would work on dismantling Muggle technologies together. They helped install computers in mainly Weasley homes. To this day they share a deep bond, and he is one of the few she trusts completely.
When Roxy was between her third and forth years, she discovered the riot grrrl and the underground as a whole while wandering Diagon Alley She was wandering through a book store that was playing some music that she liked, and asked the clerk about it. The energetic clerk, a recent Hogwarts graduate, told her all about this world that Roxy never knew existed. She gladly lent the young witch some CDs. Roxanne returned them vowing to buy her own copy. She related to the anger and frustration that the music talked about, about their call for revolution. She researched the movement as much she could, and began to go to shows in London. When she came back to school, she was a changed girl. No longer awkward and nerdy, Roxanne became the mysterious loner. She found other students who were interested in the muggle underground culture, and even made some friends. The past few years have been rather uneventful.
