A. Please answer the following questions as elaborately as possible. (Remember, this part is only a requirement for your third to fifteenth character! However, if you want to have more input on where you character is sorted, then please answer #6!)
1) What would you consider to be your character's strengths, and your character's weaknesses? Elaborate on your answer.

2) What goals and objectives has your character set out in their life? Is it to be successful and rich? Is it to find happiness? Why?
Uma secretly wants to find a new family- a real one, the people who will accept her as she is.

1) Give a description of your character's personality. Are you noble or sneaky? Arrogant or Humble? Anything about your character that might help the Sorting Hat decide. (Don't worry, you can copy this onto your character page later!) (Remember, personality must be at least one paragraph long for the first two characters, two paragraphs long for the third to eighth characters, and three paragraphs long for the ninth to fifteenth!)
Uma's parents' behaviour towards her influenced her personality a lot. She was always very intelligent, enjoyed thinking outside the box, experimenting and improvisation. One of her primary features was the stubborness she inherited from her family. Later on, she became snarky and fierce, and almost always spared everyone pleasantries, especially recently, when she discovered her asexuality.
Uma was afraid that she's perceived as a freak. Having no solution to her "problem", she made her attitude more defensive, snapping at random people. She wasn't nice before, and now she started to be straight up rude. Teachers at Ilvermorny noticed it, and wanted to help, but she didn't want to cooperate with them. Now that she's transferring to Hogwarts, she started wondering what will her social situation be like with the "new her" taking control of her behaviour.
2) Write about the history of your character. How did they grow up? Is there an incident that made them the way they are? etc. (Again, you can copy this onto your character page later!) (Remember, history must at least be two paragraphs long for the first two characters, three paragraphs long for the third to eighth character, and four paragraphs long for the ninth to fifteenth character!)
Carter Leigh and Sharon Thomas first met at the Ilvermorny School of Witchcraft and Wizardry. Both African Americans, both Pure-Bloods, both ambitious, they seemed like a perfect match. No wonder they got married a few months after graduation. They started working for MACUSA, soon became wealthy and were a happy family. Then their only daughter was born.
Uma Annabel Leigh didn't have the happiest of childhoods. Her parents were always working, always busy, and never had much time for her. She was raised by nannies and governesses. When she got older, she realized Carter and Sharon didn't know anything about her, like her favourite foods, hobbies and habits. When Uma developed an interest in music, at the age of 10, they still tried to make her enjoy horse riding. None of them even witnessed her first magic sign. And so on and so forth.
Finally, Uma's governess persuaded her parents to let their daughter go to Ilvermorny, as she couldn't learn anything more at home. In fact, the poor woman was relieved, as Uma's attitude towards adults (and, as it was later discovered, everyone) wasn't exactly the best. At school, she had excellent grades, and was respected, yet not liked by others, mostly because of the fact that she didn't even try to show a better side to herself. Uma neither laughed nor cried with others, staying on the outside. This lasted for four years, until her parents decided to move to Britain for reasons they never bothered to tell her.
3) Write about your character's appearance. What do they look like? Are you planning on using a certain model for your character? If you already have a picture in mind, you can put it here!
Her fc is Ashleigh Murray.
4) Is your character a Pure-Blood, Half-Blood or Muggle-Born? Do you have any notable magical relations? (Remember, you cannot be related to important Harry Potter characters!)
She's a Pure-Blood, no special relations.
5) Does your character have any special magical abilities? Or special abilities in general (photographic memory, etc.)? Is he or she of a different magical race, such as Veela, Vampire, Werewolf or the like? Part or half of that magical race counts! (Remember, you cannot have a character with special abilities/of a different magical race as one of your first two characters!)
Nothing special.
6) What year is your character in?
She'll be starting her 5th now.
C. These do not affect what house you're sorted to, but everybody must answer them!
1) Is this your first character?
- A. This is my first character.
- B. No, this is not my first character.
2) If your answer to the previous question is B, how many characters do you have? How many of them are "exotic" (of a different magical race/have a special ability)?
4 normal, 1 exotic, 1 expansion
