Personality: Avie likes to help others, something she got from her mother. She's loyal to her friends and family and will do anything to help them. Sometimes she can be a bit standoffish, having grown up with Marcus Flint as her father. She's nice most of the time but if someone pisses her off then she isn't the greatest to be around she can get pretty angry. Avie's stubborn and won't back down if she's challenged. She does have a bad temper at times again something she got from her father. She's learned to adapt if the situation arises.

Avie has a strong ambition which helped her gain a position on the quidditch team she wanted. Knowing what she wants she tends to do whatever it takes to get her goal done such as causing injury to someone else, not that that's been proven. Sometimes it does mean she hurts someone, though it isn't always intentional. There are times it seems she doesn't care what other's think of her, she does things her way and to her that's the only way that matter's. She's heard things said about her but she ignores it and doesn't pay attention to what is said. She doesn't dwell on it and let it bother her. She tends to try to be perfect at everything she does, something her mother has struggled to help her with since a young age. She struggles with it everyday. Where most people would be happy with a certain outcome such as a mark on a paper, Avie tries to outdo herself each and every time. She does tend to get overlooked in social circles, unlike her sister who makes sure she's noticed. Avie doesn't mind being overlooked, She would prefer to be left alone with her school work.

Her biggest fear is that one day her family will all abandon her and she'll be left on her own. She needs her family and wants to keep them as close as possible to her. Her biggest dream is to play Quidditch professionally, preferably for the Ballycastle Bats or even Puddlemore United.

Personal History: Marcus Flint graduated Hogwarts and went on with his life, he played Quidditch and eventually got a job at the Ministry. Eventually he met Angelica Bernat, a muggle woman. He spoke with her and got to know her eventually falling for her. They dated and eventually married. After three years of marriage they found out they were expecting their first child. When Angelica went into labor they thought they were having only one child, little did they know they were about to become the parents of a set of twin daughters. Miranda Rose, the eldest by 6 minutes and Avalon Jane. They may be twins but couldn't have been anymore opposite. Avalon was quiet as a baby, while Miranda was always the louder of the two. Four years later Angelica was pregnant again, this time giving the girls a little brother. Trent James Flint.

Growing up Angelica tried to do a lot of Muggle things with the children, this included taking them to Muggle locations and having them do Muggle actitvities. Avalon's favorite activity with her mother was riding horses. She would take weekly lessons to learn to ride and became a good rider. Her determination led her to achieve a position on the youth riding team which competed around the United Kingdom, Marcus, in the meantime wanted to teach them things from their wizarding side of their family. The kids had to learn both muggle things and wizarding things. When they were younger it was harder on them as their concentration levels were still low. Though Avalon seemed able to pick up on everything a little quicker than the other two children. Angelica agreed to let the girls go to Hogwarts when they were old enough but they had to attend regular public school until that point. This helped Avalon by allowing her to see both sides. She listened to the way some people spoke about other's who were different. She didn't have many friend's as she was to afraid someone would find out that she herself was different.

She's never had a problem with either side. She loved her mother and her mother's family, and she loved her father and his family. She wasn't proud of who they were before the war, but she still loved them. Even now hearing some people speak of muggles she feels the anger grow inside of her as she listens. She tends to bite her tongue a lot when people speak poorly of other people, people they don't know.

As the girls grew, the opposites remained. Miranda was much like their mother whereas Avie was much like their father. In the early years, Avalon wasn't close to her father, she tended to spend a lot of time with her mother doing muggle things because of that reason. She felt a little left out in her own family until the day her father bought both girls brooms. Miranda would rather have used it to clean where Avie was interested in learning to fly and begged for her father to teach her to fly and all about Quidditch. This brought the two closer together where they found they were a lot more alike than at first thought. They spent more and more time together until the girls got their letters to Hogwarts. Marcus was happy for the girls. Angelica wasn't so sure. She'd wanted to keep the girls close to home.

When the girls reached Hogwarts, and went through the sorting ceremony, Avalon was sorted into Slytherin. There are times she wonders why she was sorted there, at first she thought it was because her father was a Slytherin. After receiving an owl from her father she better understood the reasoning. She was sorted into Slytherin because of her strong determination to do the best she can. She works to hard to achieve the best marks in class,KKZX or to be the best at Quidditch. She never wants to let anyone down. The ambition to achieve her goals and the inner drive she has. Her ambition can be seen when she's working on a project, she won't stop until it's finished the way she wants it. Her inner drive pushes her to get things done, and not put things off. She does things right away. She knows what she wants to do when finished with school and will do whatever it takes to get it done. She pushes herself to do her work as it should be done, once again that strive for perfection coming through. She's clever and excels in school subjects with her best subjects being Potions and Herbology. She hopes those will help her become a Healer, if the quidditch thing doesn't work out. She uses that to her advantage when it comes to work ethics, she transfers that determination to the Quitdditch pitch where she plays her heart out and does the best job she can as the Slytherin Keeper.

Sample RP: Avie was making her way down to the pitch. She could barely keep her eyes open for the early morning practice. She wasn't a morning person but she loved Quidditch and did whatever she had to to play. She slowly slipped into the changerooms and sat down on one of the benches. No one else was there yet so she closed her eyes for what she thought was just resting her eyes, but she ended up falling asleep and having a nightmare.

She was walking through the fog trying to make her way to house she shared with her sister, brother and parents. Normally it wasn't this foggy and she could make her way through but today it seemed diferent. Today it seemed like something was as if something was stopping her from getting to her house. She slowly and blindly tried to push herself through the fog. Her emotions playing with her making her think the worst. She stumbled through the fog. She gasped as she felt something grab her ankle. She looked down and saw it was just a vine she got tangled up in, almost as if the vine was a hand, a hand pulling her away. She continued to push through the fog. Tripping again she fell to the ground. Turning to see what she tripped over she was staring into the face of her twin. She screamed as she saw blood pooling around her head. She struggled to get away from her sisters dead body backing away from it she bumped into something else. She slowly turned her head shaking and saw her mother and little brother. Getting to her feet she ran, finally finding the stairs in the blinding fog she ran up the stairs and ran into something, or someone. She looked and saw the body of her father hanging from the rafters on the porch. She screamed and stumbled backwards to get away from it. Falling down the stairs.

When she landed she had her eyes still closed tightly. Slowly she opened her eyes and looked around. Seeing she was now on the floor of the changeroom. She was breathing heavily as she tried to make sense of what had happened and what she'd just seen in her nightmare.
