More Facts About Addison Rockwell
This sheet will be answered in first person, as if Addison is being asked these questions in an interview, and will be considered information starting at the beginning of her fourth year.

Don't let the length fool you. Half of it is Addison blabbering on about herself, since she likes to talk. Enjoy![/i]

"Oh, you want to interview me? I'd love to answer your questions!" *Sits down in a chair*


Name


Name:
    "My name is Addison Rockwell, which I'm sure you already know that."

Reason or meaning of name:
    "My first name, Addison, means 'Son of Adam.' It seems rather peculiar, since I'm not a boy and my father's first name isn't Adam. I mean, I am the only daughter in my family, with two brothers. Although, I never asked my parents about what they thought about my birth. It could refer to a religion, I guess, since Adam is the name of the first man on earth. My last name, Rockwell, is an English surname referring to a person that 'lived near or was born near a stony spring.' I never saw a spring near where my family lives, but there is a stream nearby. So, I guess that is where that came from."

Nicknames:
    "The only nickname that I'm aware of is Addie, which my friends like to call me. I'm afraid that I'm not too familiar with any other names that I may be called."


Birth


Age:
    "I am fourteen years old."

Date of Birth:
    "I was born on the fifth day of April in the year 1995. It was a rather sunny day, as I was told, despite what had been going on at the time."

Blood Purity:
    "Both of my parents are muggles, which makes me a muggleborn, and I am proud of this."

Blood Type:
    "I believe that I heard that my blood type is A+, but I'm not entirely sure. Is this even tracked by wizarding families?"

Astrological Sign:
    "My zodiac sign is Aries, which are typically enthusiastic, outgoing, adventurous, active, and independent. I am a few of those, so I guess that it fits."

Nationality:
    "Being from England, that makes me English."

Birth Place:
    "I grew up in a nice village in Greenford, England."


Family & Home


Father:
    "My father's name is Michael Rockwell, and he's an Investment Banker. Oh, um, excuse me, he works at a muggle bank, helping people to invest their money. I think I have a rather good relationship with my father. I mean, I am his only daughter of course. But, he doesn't buy me everything that I want, so he doesn't spoil me too much. And ... um ... I guess he's about 45 years old. I mean, I haven't exactly asked, so I may be wrong."

Mother:
    "My mother's name is Linda Rockwell, and she's a muggle school teacher. Specifically, she works in a secondary education school. So, I guess that's where I get the books that I rather enjoy studying from. Anyway, being the only daughter, my mother does try to protect me a little too much ... not as bad as my brothers, but she still tries. And ... uh ... I believe she's around 45 years old as well. Again, I never really asked, so I have no idea."

Brother/Sister:
    "So, I have two brothers, how wonderful, huh? Anyway, I might as well start with my older brother and then my younger brother. My older brother's name is Jacob, and he's a year older than me. Currently, he's fifteen and now a fifth year. He is, naturally, still in Hogwarts and thus has no occupation yet. As for our relationship, I guess it's pretty good. I mean, yeah, we fight and all, but what siblings don't actually do that? Oh, and he's kind of a little over protective of me. I started noticing that, especially at the beginning of this year. I occasionally find him watching me in the corridors. I guess it's his way to show that he loves me...

    "Anyway, so onto my younger brother. His name is Kevin, and he's a year younger than me. Currently, he's thirteen and now a third year. Just like Jacob, he's still in Hogwarts and does not have an occupation. For our relationship, I sometimes feel like a bit of a mentor myself of him. Sure, we fight as well like normal siblings, but we are still able to get along. Sine he is younger than me, I try to look out for him as well. But, I have noticed him looking out for me as well, but less so than Jacob does."

Birth order:
    "I am the middle child, with an older brother and a younger brother."

Grandparents :
  • Name – Relation (Paternal/Maternal); Birth date;

Death Date (if applicable); Job ; Location.
  • etc
  • etc
  • etc

Pets:
    "My family owns a dog, and his name is Blake."

Current Residence:
    "I live in a lovely village called Greenford, England."

Socioeconomic Level
    " I never really asked, but we don't seem to be desperate for money. So, I guess slightly above average middle class."

Talents/Skills:
    "My talents ... wow. Well, I am pretty artistic. I mean, probably not good enough to hang anywhere, but I am able to draw pretty well. I'd really like to paint as well, but so far, I haven't had the chance to yet. Being the girl that I am, I do rather enjoy fashion. I mean, I don't go spend a year and a day at my closet, and I don't run all over the place to buy the best in clothing. But, with what I have, I try many different styles on myself. Just as the canvas that I draw on for art, I see my own body as a canvas for clothing. I believe that I am rather nerdy, liking to study and read books a lot. I know that not too many others say this, but I do enjoy studying, and not just my studies in Hogwarts. By all means, I love to curl up with a Herbology, Potions, or even Ancient Runes text and read away. But, I love to read up on muggle subjects, like mathematics as well. Soon, I'd like to read up on muggle science as well."


Physical Characteristics


Height:
    "Um, 5 feet and 3 inches tall. I guess that's kind of normal for my age, right?"

Weight:
    "Merlin, what type of questions are you asking me? I weigh about 125 pounds the last time that I checked."

Race:
    "Um, I think that's kind of obvious. I'm Caucasian."

Eye Color:
    "My eyes are a lovely hazel color."

Hair Color:
    "My hair is kind of a darker blond color."

Glasses or contact lenses?
    "I have normal eyesight. While living at home, I have never been asked for any form of eyesight correction. I haven't been told I need it either. So, I guess that's good..."

Skin color:
    "Um, again, this should be obvious, and already kind of answered. My skin is light, and I don't really darken much in the sun either."

Shape of Face:
    "My face is an oval shape."

Distinguishing features:
    "None that I have noticed yet."

Health:
    "I consider myself healthy physically. Mentally? That could go either way."

Speech patterns:
    "I think I speak pretty well, except for certain topics. When talking about boys, you'd be lucky if I form a coherent sentence. Otherwise, I do kind of talk a lot, especially if I'm excited. Does that count?"

Disabilities:
    "Um, I have never been told that I have a disability, and to my knowledge, I have never been tested for one. So, I guess I don't have one."

How does she dress?
    "I think I dress pretty well. Oh, it asked how? Well, I like dresses and skirts with various tops. But, I don't mind a t-shirt and jeans. I absolutely adore a comfortable pair of sandals or flats, and I don't mind heels at all. For that matter, I don't mind my Ravenclaw uniform either. Quite frankly, if I'm comfortable with a clothing item, then I'm likely to wear it."


Intellectual and Educational Background


Intelligence Level:
    "There are different ways to measure intelligence. But, I think I'm quite intelligent. Wait! Does that sound too conceited? Fine ... I guess that my intelligence is definitely above average. Or maybe its just because I'm determined to make my work the best that it could be?" *Sigh* "All right, fine, I'll go with above average ..."

Any Mental Illnesses?:
    "I don't think I have any mental illnesses. For that matter, I don't think that I could diagnose myself and no one else has done so yet. Due to a lack of diagnosis, I'll take it that I don't have a mental illness. But, there are times that I wonder if I have Attention Deficit Disorder. I mean, I do fidget, and eventually start to doodle when bored or have nothing else better to do. My mind strays at times, and I temporarily forget information."

Learning Experiences:
    "Learning experiences? Isn't everything a learning experience? I mean, I was educated in a muggle primary school, Ravenor Primary, and I still like to keep track of where the muggle education system would have normally taken me. During a few of my summers, I would actually go to the library and look up some of the topics that the muggle students would be studying. I've taken an interest to the muggle mathematics subjects for students around my age. It's rather fascinating. Between a few of the books at my home and from the library, I have been able to work through some of the various math books through the Algebras and Geometry. I'm up to the study of Pre-Calculus. Actually, just about all of the subjects are fascinating in my opinion. I'd like to start looking at some science books as well. Anyway, now I'm off track..." *blushes* "But yes, I have had some muggle learning experiences, in addition to my study of muggle art. Ooh, and I have looked into the math used in a few of these magical studies here in Hogwarts. I enjoy looking up Herbology and Potions books as well."

Favorite Saying:
    "Favorite saying?" *giggles* "Ha! I say many things and you want me to choose just one? I don't think even I would be able to do that."


Personality Attributes and Attitudes


Mannerisms:
    "I guess that I talk too much, and I might over think things too much. Oh, and I believe in what I think is perfect, which doesn't always match actual perfection."

Habits:
    "Isn't this the same as mannerisms? At any rate, I talk a lot, over think too much, overachieve in what I do, I strive for my own version of perfection, I hate making mistakes, I have very little confidence in my artwork, I tend to let my nerves get to me, I am rather insecure at times ... My goodness, I'm a mess!"

Hobbies:
    "My hobbies, I guess are kind of like my talents. I mean, I really like art. I have a whole sketchpad of drawings that I've done both at Hogwarts and at home. A few pieces of parchment, and notes for that matter, have doodles scribbled on them as well. But, I don't particularly like showing these, as I am afraid of being judged. Um, I enjoy fashion, as I've already said. My parents aren't very rich as it is, but we do have money. But, I do try to limit how many clothes I buy, and I do try to wear clothing items again. No matter what I do, I always strive for outfits that look pretty to me.

    "I know that this sounds nerdy, but I really do like studying. Both magical and not magical subjects. I adore Herbology and Potions, finding time to read up on both of those subjects. Ancient Runes interests me a lot, as does Arithmancy. This isn't to say that I don't like all of my other classes. But, I just have an easier time with the ones that I managed. As for muggle subjects, I like math, and I would like to start studying science as well. Um, I guess that this is not really a hobby, but I like to play Wizards Chess, and muggle chess by extension.

    "Um, I like Qudditch, but lack the confidence to actually try out. When I was younger, I played soccer, and so I do still like that as well. I enjoy exploring and being curious, not just with my environment, but with books as well."


Emotional Characteristics


Strengths:
    "Oooh, my strengths. These are always the easiest to admit. I'm naturally friendly, having no problems making new friends. I am outgoing, and rather talkative, incase you haven't realized yet. Get me going on a topic, and I could go on non-stop. As I've said before, I am artistic, and can create pieces of art. I'm curious, both with my surroundings and with academics. I enjoy walking around the castle and the grounds, with the excuse of finding inspiration for art, to explore a bit. I enjoy reading, especially about topics and academics that interests me. For the most part, I am usually confident in my work, since I strive to perfect it so well. I find theory, analytics, and numbers exciting as well. Oh, also, I love to help out the younger years. I guess it's based from the way that I rarely received help from any older student at the school when I first started at Hogwarts. I want to help them in the way that no one helped me."

Weaknesses:
    "Weaknesses are usually the hardest to admit. But, you won't repeat these to anyone, right? If you do, I'll make sure to hex you like no tomorrow...

    "Anyway, so, I'm rather insecure, about many things. I have found my mind wanders, and thus I sometimes have found it hard to remember everything that I need to remember. I strive for perfection, because I fear failing and to prove that I actually belong here as a witch. I worry about what others think of me, which is why I am thoughtful and take my time with responses, which is why I try to dress in what I think is perfect, which is why that I sometimes sit and don't say anything to just not appear stupid, which is why I sometimes don't say what is on my mind so no one thinks negatively about me..." *gasps*

    "Merlin, that's a mouthful. I'm afraid of playing on the Ravenclaw Qudditch team from fears of failing. I don't share my art, on fears of being judged as crap. I don't look much at boys, because I doubt any of them would like me."

Introvert or Extrovert?:
    "Do you even have to ask? Definitely extrovert, thought I do know when to shut up."

Optimist or Pessimist?:
    "Am I allowed to say both? No ... um ... well, I find myself more pessimistic, than optimistic at times. Due to my insecurities and lack of self-confidence, I am usually afraid to do something based on how I think it would be perceived. At the same time, I do hope for the best externally, and bury the pessimism and insecurity to the best of my ability."

How does Addison deal with anger?:
    "Anger ... I haven't had too many run-ins with anger. But, when I was at Ravenor Primary, I found my magical ability to suddenly rage after finally noticing it by age nine. So, I guess that I may use magic, and probably yell as well. I probably wouldn't keep it in, instead, let it all out. Oh, especially if anything causes my work to be effected. While I am concerned with how others like me, I think that if I'm mad enough, it wouldn't matter as much to me."

With sadness?:
    "This, I would definitely keep in. I mean, I am concerned with how others perceive me, and thus I would hate to be seen as too mopey. So, I would keep it in, which would then lead me to become more depressed. I know that wouldn't be too good for my health, but I guess that it would take enough convincing for me to admit and seek counseling for any sadness. I would hate to admit that I would need help."

In a crisis?:
    "This would be hard to answer, since just about anything could happen during a crisis. Certainly, if anyone tries to attack one of my friends, or even a younger student for that matter, I would probably jump in to help them. I don't know if I would take a spell for another person or what I would do, since I never had to deal with that. The only thing that I do know, is that I don't think I would be the type of person to just sit back. I mean, I would assist in any form that I think is appropriate."

With change?:
    "Change is such a vague term. Just with crisis, it would be hard to predict. Some change is good certainly, and some change is not good. It depends on the situation. Presuming that the change isn't directly life altering to me, I probably wouldn't disagree with much..."

With loss?:
    "I'd cry. Just like a baby. I would probably want to be alone when I do so, but if I can't control myself, I'd do it in front of others. I would then become depressed and sad, and probably change my behavior. Again, I wouldn't seek counseling, since I would hate to admit that I would need help."

What does Addison want out of life?:
    "I guess that I'd like to have the most out of my life. I would like to have broad knowledge, and to know a lot of things. I want to live a life of happiness, with what I think I would like. I would hate to be rejected from what I want because of something or someone. I guess to sum it up, I'd like to be happy. Whatever will ensure that I am happy would more than likely be fine with me."

What would Addison like to change in her life?:
    "There's a lot I would probably like to change. I'd like to be prettier, less awkward, more intelligent, less crazy, basically a girl that a guy could like. I'd like to be confident and not insecure with what I'm doing. I'd like to be braver, and willing to stand up to just about anyone at my own will. I'd like to be able to talk to a guy that I like without being a complete idiot. I'd like to be more popular with my classmates. I'd like to have magic come easy to me, and maybe even to learn wandless magic. Even though I like being a muggleborn, I'd like it, if I had some of the same advantages as my classmates. I'd like it if I wasn't always looking to be perfect. Sometimes, I'd like it if I could just blend in with a crowd. I'd like to be a role model. I'd like to be the epitome of perfection, not with the flaws that I know that I have ..." *sighs*

What motivates Addison:
    "My curiosity motivates me. It motivates me to explore the castle. It motivates me to study the subjects that I like, both magical and muggle. It even motivates me to look at guys more, just so I could have the experience of liking someone."

What frightens Addison?:
    "I've already listed a lot that frightens me. Basically rejection, failure, not being able to recall information, my lack of self-confidence, people not liking my art, and interaction with a guy that I like. Oh, and anything happening to my friends and family frightens me as well."

What makes Addison happy?:
    "Just living and talking with people makes me happy. Studying my favorite subjects, theory, logic, numbers, fashion, art, books, friends, family, and discovery makes me happy. Oh, and helping out first and second years makes me happy as well."


Is Addison judgmental of others?:
    "I try not to be, I really do. Sometimes, it's hard not to make a pre-judgement as it is. Despite my judgement, I do try to talk to someone that I haven't talked to before, if possible."

Is Addison generous or stingy?:
    "I have never really been in a situation of having to give money. As it is, using money in the wizard world means that I have to follow the muggle money exchange rate. I'd like to think that I would be generous, but I couldn't say for sure."

Is Addison generally polite or rude?:
    "I try to be polite when possible. I call my teachers as Professor and then their last name. When talking to an adult who I don't know, I'd say sir and ma'am. I try not to be rude, but there could be times that my actions say otherwise."

Greatest flaw:
    "Gah, greatest flaw? I have plenty of flaws, but my greatest? How do you expect me to name my greatest flaw. If I have to name the one flaw that seems to encompass all of my flaws, then I'd have to say my insecurities and my lack of self-confidence. See, that's still more than one!"

Best quality:
    "Best quality. That's pretty deep, huh? I'd have to say that my best quality is that I'm friendly and that I have no problem talking to others. Of course, this is in my opinion. Dunno if anyone else would agree with that..."

Addison's short-term goals in life:
    "My short-term goals are pretty standard for most Hogwarts students, I believe. I'd like to pass all of my exams this year, and to pass my OWLs next year in accordance to my future career. I'd like to maintain my group of friends and to expand that if possible. I'd like to be loyal to my friends as well. It would be nice for me to eventually become more comfortable in others seeing my art as well. While I haven't taken much stock of looking at the male population of Hogwarts just yet, I'd like to eventually have a boyfriend, if any guy would actually like me..."

Addison's long-term goals in life:
    "Long-term, I'd like to graduate Hogwarts with the best marks that I could receive. I'd like to be accepted into a job in accordance of my future career. Again, I'd like to be loyal to my friends. I'd like to expand my knowledge in the muggle world as well. While I'd rather not have a career solely in art, I'd like to continue that hobby as well. I would like to, eventually, get married to a guy that treats me right and to eventually have children, maybe?"

How does Addison see herself?:
    "Merlin, how do I see myself? I think it should be relatively evident by now that I don't see myself in too good of a light. I don't want to show off my artwork because I think it sucks. I think I'm undesirable by guys at Hogwarts, or anywhere for that matter, because I'm nerdy, a bit crazy, awkward, and ugly. I'm pretty insecure with myself. Since my mind likes to wander, I sometimes think that I have Attention Deficit Disorder. I distrust myself to just spit out answers, requiring thoughtful time to think things through. While I may talk a lot, I'm not a fan of showing my intelligence or my skills in front of others. I don't want to play Qudditch because I don't think I'm good enough...

    "Yes, clearly, I don't think too good of myself. Ask me to reflect, and I'll go off like that..."

How does Addison believe she is perceived by others?:
    "Well, I'd like to think that others think I'm all friendly, nice, bubbly, and sunshine-y. And, I generally am most of the time. Oh, and talkative. Very talkative, incase you haven't noticed by my winded responses. My pessimistic side leads me to believe that others don't like me. Again, this is because I'm a nerdy, crazy, awkward, ugly, oh and also because I'm a perfectionist. Indeed, all qualities that I assume cause people not to like me. I mean, in my own head, I have like this version of the perfect girl that everyone likes. I already know that I'm completely far away from that image. Yet, I can tell you that I probably won't change much, if any of that to begin with. Even though I'm insecure like that, it still makes me who I am. Who would I be if I tried to be someone who I'm not? I certainly wouldn't be myself, that's for sure. "

What would most embarrass Addison?:
    "Quite honestly, many things. My awkwardness embarrasses me around guys. Showing my artwork, skills, and intelligence embarrasses me. Knowing that I don't know something that I'm supposed to know embarrasses me. Not living up to my perfect standards embarrasses me. My brothers embarrass me with some of their comments."


Spiritual Characteristics



Does Addison believe in God?:
    "Do I believe in God? Yes, I do believe in God. I was raised in a Catholic family, and thus celebrate those traditions. But, um, I don't practice it while in Hogwarts of course. So, I guess that you could say that I don't practice in my religion much, but, yes, I do believe in God."


What are Addison's spiritual beliefs?:
    "As I just described, I don't really practice my religion much while I'm at Hogwarts. Of course, I do when I'm at home. I would like to say that I do have morals. Yes, and ... um ... yeah. Those morals are why I try to help out first and seconds years when I can, why I dress pretty conservative most of the time, and why I don't like having others hate me. Of course, I do lie and stretch the truth sometimes. But, trust me, I usually have a good reason for doing so ... unless I'm teasing you ..."

Is religion or spirituality a part of Addison's life?:
    "Um, not really. While at Hogwarts, I don't exactly openly practice my spirituality. But, I do try to act in an appropriate matter with regards to my morals or my lack of morals in some cases ..." *grins*


Favorites


Color:
    "I honestly haven't thought about a specific color that I like the best. I love wearing blue, since it part of my house's colors. But, I do wear other colors as well, depending on what I decide to wear for the day."

Animal:
    "While I don't go out of my way to show my appreciation and love for animals, like I do for first years, I do like animals. I like owls, and I have worn jewelry and clothing items with owls on them. I like the eagle as well, since it is my house's animal."

Food:
    "All food" *giggles* "No actually, I'm not that bad. I like anything chocolate related. I have rather enjoyed the roasted potatoes here at Hogwarts as well ..."

Drink:
    "I like drinking coffee. No, I am not addicted to it. I just have a couple of cups throughout the day ... okay like three ... but it's not that much, I swear ... fine, they're rather big cups, but I'm not addicted! Oh, and I rather enjoy butter beer too!"

Movie:
    "Since I'm at Hogwarts a lot now, I don't have nearly as much time to watch movies. But, I did go and see this Transfomers movie with my brothers over the summer. I believe its full name was Transformers: Revenge of the Fallen. Honestly though, I guess that I like the comic book super hero movies as well."

Band:
    "Again, this is mainly something that I could listen to at home. Sure, there's some wizarding wrock bands that I listen to, but not in any like great amounts ... To be quite honest, just name any muggle rock band, and I most likely like it."

Song:
    "The latest song that I was listening to, before departing for Hogwarts of course, was Chasing Pavements by Adele."

City:
    "London is nice and everything, but that may only be because I have lived near there for my whole life. But, internationally speaking, I would love to visit Paris, Venice, New York City, and a bunch of other as well. Will I ever get to? I have no idea, but a girl could dream ..."

Place:
    "My favorite place? That's kind of a broad question. I absolutely love libraries, of course. I like Hogwarts too, even though I still kind of see it as complex."

Instrument:
    "I don't play an instrument, as I'm not musically inclined. But, the drums are kind of nice. Ooh, and guitars sound good too!"

Piece of clothing?:
    "Gah! Only one piece of clothing? There's no way that I could only choose one piece of clothing. Instead, I think that I'll name my favorite shirt, dress, bottom, and shoes. For my favorite shirt, I'd have to say maybe a sleeveless shirt. For a dress, I usually like to wear dresses with straps. For bottoms, I love wearing skirts. Finally, for shoes, I like wearing wedge sandals. Of course, my wardrobe isn't just limited to these items."
