personality.
personality.
First Impression»» [/b]
Outwardly Pippa can appear formidable - thick-skinned, unemotional, uncompromising, obstinately tenacious, purposeful, energetic, shrewd, intuitive and wise, sometimes with a philosophical profundity of thought verging on inspiration.
The few close friends she has, however, see a very different character, one with a sympathetic and kindly sensitivity to other people, especially those she loves. Pippa is able to identify with the situations of others because of the keenness of her imaginations. She is often over-imaginative and prone to fantasy, sometimes trying to shape her life to fit some romantic ideal she had read about in a book.
In personal relationships, Pippa is a mixture of toughness and softness, often emotional and romantic to the point of over-kill, but tenaciously loyal. She loves unreservedly, giving much and asking little in return - in fact, one of the most important lessons she will have to learn is how to receive gracefully. She is too easily influenced by those she loves and admires, and swayed by the emotion of the moment.
Pippa is incredible loyal, almost to the point of being clannishness, and tends to close ranks in suspicion and coldness toward outsiders, if she feels like she is being shut out.
She is untidy, sulky, devious, moody, inclined to self-pity, brood on insults (very often imagined), yet she is easily flattered. Pippa can be tactless and difficult. She hates to get advice, good or bad, and hates being told what to do.
Self Image»» [/b]
Pippa has had the "be a perfect pureblood" line drilled into her head over the years that she is often overcritical of herself and those that she consorts with. She tends to focus on certain parts of her body, personality and her academic success(or lack there of) and obsesses over it to where it is almost unhealthy. She wants nothing more to be the perfect daughter, and the perfect witch.
She is vain, the one thing that she likes about herself is her face. She is pleased with the symmetry of her features and is very proud of it. She hates her thighs and breasts. One is entirely too large, the other too small.
Positive Traits»» [/b]
- Intense - Pippa has a tendency to become eagerly absorbed in what stimuli the environment provides(clubs, gossip, cliques), and has an active, energetic quality in this absorption.
Though Pippa actively seeks gratification in these activities she does not appear to find it. She finds her satisfaction and pleasure in the preparation or in the idea of the activity. - Emotional - Pippa isn't afraid to show her emotions. She doesn't ever hide the fact that she is angry, hurt or happy. She does tend to be the extremes of whatever emotion that she is feeling. Because of this it is always easy to know where you stand with her at that moment. Her parents wanted her to hide her emotions and be nothing but a blank page, but her grandmother on her mother's side knew how important that Pippa not hold everything inside. So her Grandmother encouraged her to
- Unreserved Romantic - Pippa loves the idea of being in love and all that is attached to it. She is constantly wanting to fix people up. She loves muggle romance novels and is an avid fan of "Madame Loveless Tales of Romantic Woe" that is on the Wizard Wireless Network. She isn't ashamed of this fact and can often be found reading a battered copy of Pride and Prejudice.
- Opinionated - Pippa knows what she likes and what she does not like. There are no grey areas with Pippa. Everything is cut and dry. She very rarely holds anything back and will tell you her feelings even to the point of overkill.
- Intelligent - Pippa's family wanted her to have a solid background in her academics. While they knew that her looks, charm and status would gain her access to many different things. They also knew that in order for her to stay at the top she had to have the knowledge and wit in order to do so. She was tutored at an early age in some subjects, such as Potions, Astronomy, Ancient Runes and Arithmancy. She is knowledgeable in many things but to counter that she has very little common sense.
Negative Traits»» [/b]
- Untidy - Pippa is used to her house elf, Mog, cleaning up after her. So she has never developed the rudimentary skills of keeping her things in neat and tidy order. She has not reached the level of an all out slob but she is getting close.
- Devious - Pippa does enjoy making others feel small. But she never picks out the obvious things such as looks or blood status. She waits and observes and chooses things that she knows will cut the person to the quick. She finds out things such as a persons worst fear or most guilty secret and snidely lets out details in conversations.
- Tenacious - Pippa never knows when to stop. When there is a problem or obstacle that she wants to overcome she will not let go until she has reached her goal. She cares not what the actions look like to others or if it might hurt herself or others. She is focused on the goal and the rest is just details.
- Inclined to self-pity - Pippa is very hard on herself and finds it hard not to focus on the negatives. She often depends on others to validate her and her feelings.
- Manipulative - Pippa learned at an early age that she had a tiny bit of sway over her family. As she is the only child and only grandchild on both sides. She always wants the ball in her court and will scheme to make things go her way. She has perfected the art and makes sure to use it to her advantage at any opportunity.

Boggart»» [/b]
Giant rat, her cousins, Frank and Martin, made their pet rat chase her around the room once when she was six. The rat ended up nibbling on her shoes and scared her out of her wits. She now will not let any "flea bitten disgusting plague carrying vermin" get anywhere near her.

Distinctive Features»» [/b]
Pippa has a long scar on her left calf that extends from her knee to her ankle. She received the cut when she was 10. She was climbing apple trees on her family's estate and lost her balance. As she fell her leg got caught on a branch and ripped the flesh. She broke her leg, and arm in the fall. She has a slight limp because her father isn't as adapt at setting broken bones as her mother.
Dress Style»» [/b]
Pippa prefers comfy causal. While she does care about her appearance, all of her robes are namebrand as well as the few articles of muggle clothing that she owns. She is often found in loose nonrestrictive clothing, and prefers deep blue and browns.

Social Status»» [/b]
Her parents are rather well off, and are part of the pure blood aristocracy. Her mother is a singing idol and her father a well respected member of Gringotts Charm Breakers.
She enjoys the overflow from her mother's popularity there are times that she has been tempted to use it to gain access to different events but deep down she knows that is not her accomplishments that gave her entrance and her vanity would not allow for that.

Favorite Classes»» [/b]
Tranfiguration - The thought of turning something into something completly different has always excited her. She had read a book about Animagi and the thought facinated her. She was told that it was a very difficult and exhausting spell and one had to get top marks in Transfiguration. So Pippa threw herself into the study as soon as she entered Hogwarts.
Hated Classes»» [/b]
Potions - She hates to admit it but the thought of cutting up most potion ingredients makes her rather ill. She can barely touch a frog liver let along slice it up. This revultion shows in the abmisal grades she receives in this subject.
Herbology - She loves plants but hates to get dirty, and one can never come out of the Herbology greenhouses without being caked in dragon dung.

Past»» [/b]
- Pippa was born the only child of Malcolm and Agatha Baddock. Her mother was a teen idol during her youth(she was a member of the famous singing group The Weird Sisters) and branched out to have a successful solo career. Pippa's father is a Curse Breaker for Gringotts. A job he very much enjoys. Her father and mother are very much into the Pure Blood mania despite the stigma that is attached to it. They don't look at is as excluding muggle borns but more that they are preserving tradition.
Because of their mania, Pippa grew up thinking that muggle borns, and half bloods were beneath her. Her Grandmother Grant tried to ween her off the fanaticism when Pippa came to visit. It was a hard battle, and one that had little success. All Grandmother Grant could hope for is that she put at least a small seed of doubt in her.
When Pippa entered Hogwarts she was driven and focused that she would become the top of her class. Her parents eager for her to excel fed this mania. She was so driven during her younger years that she never took the time to relax and enjoy Hogwarts. So she vowed her final year to enjoy her last year.
