Physical Description: Thalia would describe herself as a blonde, blue-eyed gorgeous woman. Her crystalline-blue eyes are light and darken slightly when she feels anything other than happiness.
But sometimes her quirky personality overthrows her beauty. The first thing you notice about Thal is her adorable, bubbly personality, the second thing is how pretty she is. And the third thing you notice? Her tallness. Standing at 5 feet and 9 inches, Thal is quite tall.
She doesn't really have curves, per say. She's skinny and lacks a bit in the chest area. But if you ever call her lanky, you will find yourself in the most unfortuante of situations because Thalia Pierce is not lanky and she despises people who say that she is.
Her hair is a light golden color and has highlights running through it. The length is just touching the top of her breasts and she mostly has it in a ponytail even though occasionally she lets her hair down- literally.
Her nose is strong- and she kind of hates how it looks at times. But most of the time, she loves all of how she looks. She has a tattoo of an intricate flower on the right side of her hip and tends to avoid exposing it to people.
Her clothing style can be described as eccentric. Thal buys stuff from clothing stores and wears whatever she throws on. For example: A blue beret perched upon her head, a rag tied jauntily around her neck, a yellow shirt tied about halfway on her stomach- exposing her abs-, a light green Letterman jacket, white pants with suspenders, and a pair of black flats might be consistent in a typical outfit.
Her nails are always perfectly manicured and tend to be painted with some obscure design that she likes to call 'Thal-art'. Her make-up on most days is minimal, a little bit of eyeliner and some lipgloss to accent her features.
Personality Description: Thalia is a quirky, eccentric blonde. She loves to make friends and tries to be the welcoming committee for many new first years at the school.
And many a first years have gotten a crush on her. With her sparkling humor and charming dumb-blonde wit, she likes to think that she's a star but at times that isn't true. She's ridiculously bubbly and spends most of her mornings, following someone around chattering with them. And no one has the heart to send her away.
The blonde tends to hide her true self away from the world. Her true self is calculating, ruthless, and just generally mean. That personality only comes out when she is angry or if someone has caught her off guard. She isn't the most trusting person in the world and tends to lie about things at times.
Sure, her house has a bad reputation but that doesn't matter to her. Bad reputations can be written away with dedication and hard work as according to Thalia's mother. At times, she can be a tad absent-minded and is known for forgetting various items of importance around the school.
She's also a little... study- crazy. Not that you would call her nerdy- that would be a bad idea. And you would get hexed. But she holds study nights every Tuesday and Thursday in her dorm room.
When she believes in something or has a made a promise to do something, she does it. And never backs down from a challenge.
Even though in the face of danger, some people would call her a coward. And she tends to run away from any dangerous situation. Even if it's only mild danger. But the redeeming quality to that is that she immediately goes to get help after she runs away.
History: Born to Alexis Berry-Pierce, a rich muggle socialite, and to Daniel Pierce, a wizard, Thalia is not shy to social privilege. Thal's first word was 'Mom' and her first step was toward her mother. And that was great.
Danny Pierce loved his daughter.
He loved Thalia a lot. And then came the day when he was killed by the very people he was chasing after, the day where Thalia was left without a father at the tender age of eight.
And then the world was dark. Alexis spiraled into a deep, dark depression leaving her child alone to fend for them.
Thal spent most of her days pre-Hogwarts, ordering around the household and making sure that things were taken care of. And then one day, when she was ten years old, Alexis emerged from the master bedroom- a place where she had been hiding for two years. And that was when it all changed.
Alexis Pierce took control of the household and Thalia was allowed to relax for the one year before she went off to Hogwarts. Then, it came to be the time when Thal boarded The Hogwarts Express and began her real education.
Upon arriving at Hogwarts, Thalia placed the Sorting Hat on her head and not even five seconds later was sorted into Slytherin. After all, the Sorting Hat tells no lies. As it turns out, Thal had an aptitude for Potions and quickly excelled- and became the type of girl who looked forward to her Potions class every time she went.
Thal quickly discovered that she didn't have the temperament or patience for some of her classes and as soon as she was able to she dropped down to the classes she has now. She's okay in her other classes- she doesn't excel, per say. She manages to get decent scores in said classes. She's always been a decent flyer and she figures that the flying class will help her to improve her aerial skills.
Thalia isn't quite sure if she wants to participate in the Tetrawizard Tournament. Sure, she knows that she is legally old enough to participate in them. But it's not really her forte. She'll probably just stick to being a spectator- and she's fine being in the stands for once.
In her fifth year, Thal discovered the wonder of pranking people. And that was when everything changed for her. Thal spent half of her time pranking people, a quarter of her time making herself look pretty, and a quarter of her time learning and studying.
Oh yeah and there's that really small amount of time that she spends in the air. Feeling the wind blowing through her hair, exhilareted as the ground below passes by. She's a Quidditch player and tends to spend at least one day of her week on the Quidditch Pitch.
Now, the seventh year is preparing for her future life and what job she wants when she graduates. And how nice the nail polish looks on her. That's always a thought for Thalia.
Classes: Core Classes No Charms Defense Against the Dark Arts No No Potions Transfiguration No | Electives No Arithmancy No No No

How Do You Fit Into Your House?: Thalia values the values of Slytherin most than anything. Plus, she embodies them. So how would she not be put in Slytherin?
Writing Sample: "Well, good luck with that"
Thal's jaw dropped open as Jess walked away from her and she struggled to close it as she stood in the Potions corridor. "Jess, get back here!" she managed, a pout on her face as she chased after her friend.
The light of the torches casting a glow on her body. 'Thank god for long legs' she thought as she looped her arm through Jessica's, dragging the girl to a stop. "I'm not going to help with this crazy scheme, Thal" Thal rolled her eyes.
"I'm not asking you to help, Jess" she replied, her voice irritated. "I'm asking you to be look-out" Jess scoffed and Thal's eyebrows furrowed. Normally people helped her with her hare-brained schemes. But Jess had always been stubborn.
"What's so hard about being look-out" Thal had been look-out many times before and all you had to do was warn the person that someone was about to come in. Jess shook her head. "I don't want to get in trouble, Thal" Thal pouted.
"But you won't" she pointed at herself. "I'm the Mistress of all things prank-wise and it's not like you can get caught with me masterminding things. Have you ever gotten caught before" Jessica's thoughtful look made Thal smile triumphantly. And she cringed when she heard footsteps approaching them but relaxed when Amy Stien passed them and waved at the girls.
"It's now or never, Jess" Thal bit her lip pleadingly as she glanced towards the Potions classroom. All she had to do was rig the door and then they would be able to watch the prank take place.Jess sighed, signaling defeat. "Go on ahead, Thal" Thal kissed Jess on the cheek and darted into the classroom.
Now, where had she put that bucket....
Sum up your character in one paragraph: Thalia is the sweetest girl you'll ever meet, on the outside anyway. But on the inside she is a true Slytherin. She's a mischievous little prankster and knows how to get what she wants. But most of all, Thal is herself. All of her actions and words scream individuality. And that's exactly who she is. An individual.
