Profiles: Tiara

Name: Tiara Starr Matthews

House: Gryffindor

Wand: maple, unicorn tail hair, 11 in.

Blood: Parents are squibs, but grandparents, great-grandparents, etc. are purebloods.

Birthday: June 21

Element: Air

Spirit: Soul

Height: average/tall

Weight: thin/average

Eyes: They change from dark blue to jade green to dark brown to grey, depending on either her feelings at that time, or the season. They're almond-shaped.

Hair: long, dark brown

Skin: fair

Clothing: Her clothes are comfortable, but they also look good on her. She usually wears dark colors: dark reds, blues, greens, purples, etc.

Personality: Tiara can be shy and sensitive, and it takes her a little while to open up to people. Once you get to know her, though, she's a really good friend, and you can always come to her if you need someone to talk to, homework help, etc. Her friends and family are very important to her. She's also very logical, and she always thinks before she does anything.

Classes: Her favorite classes are the ones where you really have to use your mind, like Transfiguaration, Charms, Ancient Runes, and Arithmancy. She also loves Care of Magical Creatures. Her least favorite class is Divination, because she can't really understand how reading tea leaves, etc. will tell the future. If she is able to understand sometime, she might like it better.

Likes: Tiara is a HUGE animal lover. Her favorite muggle animal is a horse, and she can't choose a favorite magical animal.

She loves to shop for clothes, books, and electronics. (Electronics includes anything to do with music, movies DVDs, electronic games, etc.) Tiara loves to read, listen to music, and do mind-challengers, like a strategy-electronic game or a word puzzler, etc.

Her favorite season is summer. She loves being outside under bright blue sky, fluffy white clouds, and the warm sun. When it's warm out, she loves to go horseback riding in the meadows. When it gets cold, she likes to go sledding, and she loves to go ice-skating outside.

Tiara's favorite sports are horseback riding, any kind of gymnastics, any kind of dancing ((there are dancing competitions, so I'm calling it a sport)), and ice-skating. She also loves to sing, but she's kind of shy about it, so she'll only sing in front of people she knows well and that she's really close to.

Dislikes: Tiara hates it when she sees other kids being bullied, animals abused and/or neglected, etc.

Family:

Father: Brendan Shaun Matthews

Mother: Ciera Eve Miller Matthews

Brother: Lucas (Luke) Aidan Matthews- age 4

Sister: Rose Erin Matthews- age 4

Mother's grandmother: Rowan Kiara Hayes
Grandfather (father's father): Bryan Connor Matthews

Background: The Matthews family lives just outside of Dublin, Ireland. They're pretty well-off in terms of money. They're also Jewish.

The Matthews' own A LOT of horses. They have many different breeds, and they train all disciplines (racing, jumping, western, etc.) so the horses can do whatever they're best at.

Pets: School- Owl named Sparkle. Sparkle is a very pretty snowy owl. Her coat and eyes always seem to sparkle, so that's where her name comes from.

Home- Dog named Lucky. Lucky is a brown and white Border collie. She's perfectly obedient, and very eager to please. She helps with the horses, too. Whenever Lucky goes into a paddock, the horse(s) in the paddock know(s) that it's time to go back into the barn.

- Cats named Misty, Thor and Stormy. Misty is gray with white paws, and the tip of her tail is also white. She's a house cat, but she loves to be in the barn with the horses. Stormy is Misty's son. He's gray with white paws, a white belly, and the tip of his tail is white. He, like his mother, is a house cat, but he also loves to be in the barn with the horses. Thor is Stormy's father. He's black with a wide white triangle (pointing down) on his chest. The triangle's kind of in a v-shape. He's in the house more than Stormy and Misty are, but he does occasionally come out to the barns.

- Horses: too many to count! The horse that Tiara rides a lot is a liver chestnut mixed breed named Princess. She's great at pretty much every equestrian discipline. Two others of Tiara's favorites are a chestnut Thoroughbred two-year-old colt named Mischief, and a black Thoroughbred stallion named Phantom. She also loves a white Welsh Pony named Casey.

Animagus: pure white unicorn with gold/silver horn, hooves, mane and tail, depending on the light.
Her mother's father taught her how to become an Animagus from when she was eight, and she was able to fully transform by the time she was 10.

Quidditch position: Chaser

Broom: Nimbus 1500

Tiara can see thestrals, because when she was very young, she and the rest of her family (that were alive) were gathered around her great-grandmother's hospital bed when her great-grandmother died.
