Fandom: Harry Potter
YAASSSS!

Name: Gemma Danielle Henderson
Ooo, I like the name Gemma.

Plot: This takes place in 5th year with Umbridge and the DA. Gemma and Allison are forced to work together with the DA after years of avoiding awkward encounters because of their broken friendship.
Oh nice.

Age: 15-17

Race: Northern British

Background: Allison Hailey Lester and Gemma were best friends, they did everything together. They did dance class together. They did rehearsals and performances together. They got their Hogwarts letter together. They rode the train together, they were in the canoes together.

But they did not get sorted together.

Gemma was placed in Gryffindor, and Allison in Ravenclaw. They got separated and drifted away, especially when Allison moved to a village more in the south.
So this is about them trying to reconnect? That's pretty interesting.

Talents/skills: avoiding confrontation, Charms and DADA spells, athletics, ballet/gymnastics
That first one is way too relatable.

Sexuality: straight

Friends: Hermione (shares the dorm), Ginny, Allison (later on), and most other people in Gryffindor
I'm really glad she's pretty social, it seems to be more and more uncommon these days.

Significant Other: the plot is centered around her friendship and not boys, so while she might get the occasional crush, she doesn't have a SO as of yet (note: she still gets crushes, and talks about them with her girl friends)
I AM SO GLAD.

Appearance: big calves, strong arms, longish and wavy dark brown hair, green eyes and pale-ish skin (ballerinas shouldn't be tanning in case of tan lines which will divert the attention there instead of the dance because the tutus don't exactly hide much)
True, I'm glad you thought that out. It makes things more realistic.

Distinguishing Features: freckles, has scars from numourus dance accidents, left arm is a tiny bit shorter then the other (because she broke it a few years back), how straight her posture is

Habits: flipping her pony tail, talking too fast, forgetting to do her homework, standing en pointe, or just in different positions  (like 1st 2nd or 3rd)

Mental Illness: mild ADHD

Self confidence level: 7.5/10 so pretty good
That's good, if she didn't have a high confidence level I'd wonder why she's dancing.

Ruled by emotion, logic, or a mix?: emotion like 70% emotion 30% logic

Introvert or Extrovert: Ambivert

Strengths: flexibility, Charms, defense spells,

Weaknesses: feelings, people crying, never knows what to say, stating on a consistent health diet, can be a bit brash and forward  (will probably cause me a lot of second hand embarrassment)
Me.

Extra Notes: her and Allison met in dance class and we're instant friends

Like many girls in her grade, she had a crush on Harry Potter. After that faded it was Cedric Diggory, then... well you know, that didn't exactly work out.

While not a girly girl, she is still girly

Keeps up with ballet in the Room of Requirement

Another boy their age is also a wizard and went to the same ballet school Allison and Gemma did, he was sorted into Gryffindor (he could also be potential SO maybe)

Constructive Criticism: Hmm, nothing really. Maybe make the stories of her scars realistic? Because I couldn't really think of how you'd get a cut deep enough from dancing to scar, but hey, accidents happen.

Intrigue: 90%
