SAMPLE POST:
She sighed heavily as she stepped onto the cobblestone streets of Diagon Alley. It had been three weeks since she had placed an add in the Daily Prophet for a roommate so far nothing. She figured it had to be the war, no one could trust anyone anymore. Things were lonely for Joann, just having a fat calico for company allowed ones mind to wander. It allowed for her to take her new found addiction of cutting parallel lines into her pale skin that much easier. She quicken her pace only to stop and stare in the window of a pawn shop.
Her eyes glanced over her ring-less right hand. The tan line the engagement ring had left was still present. Of course he left her, after her first trip into the field she was as different person. No one was the same once they witnessed the slaughter of millions. The first venture had left her cold. The two aurores she had been sent with specifically were missing and she was stepping over the dead bodies looking for a sign a life form any of them, “Jo...” a familiar muffled voice called out to her. “CODY!” she whispered terror-struck once she saw her little brother. His mangled fifteen-year old body laying there among the broken bodies of death eaters and the innocent. Immediately she dropped to her knees and scooped him up into her arms and begin healing him. Something weird caught her eye, a burn on his forearm, she pulled the sleeve of his school robes up... the dark mark. “Cody...How could you, how dare you” She dropped him and backed away, her hand covered her mouth. Salty tears made streaks in the dirt on her face. Her baby brother a death eater? It wasn’t possible.
BAM!
A searing pain stung her cheek and a cool wetness spread over her face, blood. An aurorer had pushed her out of the path of a green flash of light that shot out from her brother’s wand. With a slick flourish another green flash from a friendly wand hit Cody in the chest. And just like that, Cody was gone. How could she tell mom and dad? The next few hours were blur when she snapped out of it she was at home with Kyle, her now ex- fiance. He promised her he wouldn’t leave, but after a week of initial shock he was gone, he left her note explaining he couldn’t be with her, something about finding himself. The coward. She had worn the ring another month in hopes that he would come back to her. Hope was a funny thing, hope is a fallacy that died when she took the trillion cut diamond and placed back in its emerald colored box. Her aunt had come to stay with her for a while. She not only witnessed the murder of her death-eater brother, but she also lost the man she loved. It hardly seemed fair, but who decides what fair is anyway? She shuddered at a thought, she has magic but the muggles have nothing. No protection from this merciless slaughter. So many innocent people became a part of the casualty statistics.
Before discovering her brother’s secret life everything had been so clear. The bad guys were separated from the good guys. It was easy to tell right from wrong. She would never tell anyone, but she often wondered if she was on the right side. maybe the ministry was in fact wrong. She came form a long line of pureblood wizards, rumored to be the long lost line of the Malfoys. The Henrys were nothing like them, kind, loving people, Her mother an artist and her father a retired Ministry man. She now herself believed the rumors, how else could Cody have ever abandoned what they had been taught when growing up. Unless her father....No. She wouldn’t question that, it was impossible.
She touched her cheek gingerly, there was no scar, no proof that a piece of glass had pierced through her pale flesh. Maybe it hadn’t even happened, the first time she questioned her memory she went to see her mother who upon hearing Cody’s name broke down into sobs. She would never tell her mother Cody tried to kill her, it would be too much for her. Why was she protecting him? He tried to kill her? He tore her family apart. Joann was not allowed in the house if her father was home. According to daddy dearest if Joann had done what she was supposed to, get married right away and procreate, then Cody wouldn’t feel like he had to work against the ministry. She wondered how much she could get for her ring. She clutched her purse, and took out the box, with a sigh she debated going inside.
It was a step in the right direction, She had to get rid of everything that was Kelly’s. I was time to let go of that part of life and find a new roommate.

GENERAL:
Bambi was taught appearance was the most important aspect about being a woman. Her job was to get married and have tons of kids. Because of this Bambi spends a lot of time on her appearance, spending hours running or swimming she keep her thin frame, well thin. The one thing she is rather proud of is the fact curves exist where they should exist. The most striking feature would be Bambi’s ice blue eyes. They have the ability to stare into your own and make you confess the truth, something that helps with teaching. If she were blonde she knows her eyes wouldn’t be a striking but they stand out more with her dark hair and pale skin. Her features have lead to many calling her an ethereal beauty.[/ul]
Bambi tends to dress a bit on the classic side, though she likes to throw in bohemian touches here and there. Her delicate frame has lead many to believe she is weak, thus men feel the need to protect the delicate ethereal flower they have come in contact with, what they don’t knows that the delicate flower grew up with boys in a family with questionable morals, so the svelte figure could easily kick your butt. She takes pride in her appearance and because some Italian women tend to get larger as they get older she take great care not to eat all of the food she makes in one sitting.
, and this is my mind it goes !
[/color]over and over the same old lines[/b][/SIZE][/color][/font][/center]
Love triumphs over all for Bambi, she is ruled by the heart something she learned in rather large Italian family. She was born rather fortunate and doesn’t have any problems admitting her good luck. . Charismatic and positive-thinking Bambi managed to attract all types of people and oppurtinities (good and bad), regardless of the situation Bambi will manage to come out with her good humour.
She chose the profession of teaching, feeling the need to share her knowledge with others. One of her more charming characteristics is the fact that no matter how many times life or romance turns sour on them; she still manages to maintain faith in others, refusing to become cynical. It is this kind-heartedness that many people like to take advantage of. This has made her the victim of relationship power games that can be played.
There is a sensitive and creative side to her that a rare few get to see. It’s something she had learned to keep guarded. With the attraction of the vast types of people and the many times she has been burned, without becoming the cynic she learned to keep just a small piece of herself to herself. Every time someone hurt her she lost a bit of herself and no matter how many times her big brothers beat the offender up it didn’t make it better.
Bambi is a giver when things are rough and you need someone to just be there Bambi loves to simply hold your hand if you need it. Bambi understand human frailties better than most, due to her large family and reflective nature. Being the type of person to want to reciprocate the good emotions put in a relationship, be it romantic or friendly.

HISTORY:
[/ul]
On a warm August day in a Tuscan villa a little girl was born. The fourth child of Anthony and Anna DeGallo she was exactly what their parents had wanted after three boys. The baby of the family was treated as such; her parents doted on her as well as her older brothers. It wasn’t that she was spoiled she was just the only girl and therefore treated as special when with her immediate family. The hard thing about having such a large family was her aunts, uncles and cousins constantly surrounded her. It was easy to get lost in the sea of DeGallos and Ciampis. It was also a bit of fun having a built in army to come to your aid if someone at school mistreated you.
Growing up was easy for Bambi, she had enough people around her that if something was bothering her, someone is the family had experienced it and knew how to handle it. She did well in school and was fairly popular. People liked the fact she listened and like to make others happy. Her general good nature attracted people to her and she was never alone for very long. Dating was something that Bambi did not get to do a lot of, her brothers made sure of it. No man was good enough for their little sister, especially since the family vineyard was only a front for the real family business. They had to protect the DeGallo family business just as they protected their younger sister.
Deciding she had enough of the Italian sun she decided to study in America. Once she was accepted to the University of Kentucky she said goodbye to her family and moved. The university was fine; it was just getting use to the American culture. That became much easier when she met Kyle Martin. Kyle was a true gentleman who worked on his family’s farm. They were horse trainers and Bambi found herself falling in love with the horses. It wasn’t long till she was also working on their farm and showing horses. After college while working on her masters Kyle proposed. They were married, the whole DeGallo and Ciampi clan came in for the wedding and tried to hide their disappointment.
A year after the wedding Bambi suffered a miscarriage. It was something that the marriage could not recover from and six month later Bambi and Kyle were getting a divorce. She was embarrassed by the failure of her marriage as well as her failure to bear to children so she took a teaching job at an Academy. Elmendorf gave her the opportunity to continue working with horses as well as use her education and enlighten the minds of the next generation.
