EYE COLOUR: Caramel coloured with honey streaks swirling out from the iris.
HEIGHT: 5"7
WEIGHT: 118lbs
BODY TYPE: slender and toned
VOICE: light french accent, seductive and heavy twist to her words
PERSONAL STYLE: Elegence personified. She is rarely dressed down and loves to wear dresses and skirts so she can feel feminine.
GENERAL DESCRIPTION: For generations the De Luca's have resided on the South Coast of France, it is because of this and her blood that today Dahlia is blessed with such honey coloured skin that is as smooth as silk and makes tanning obsolete. To match her tawny skin her hair falls in a sweep of dark curls to her mid back, interlaced with dark blonde streaks from her many years down on the costa.
She stands at a reasonable height like all of the women in the family and her frame is slender and toned from years of swimming and horse riding as is required of a De Luca, they are a very active family and make sure every son or daughter keeps it up. The clothes she wears are normally of a pale colour, pastels are her friend and complement her complexion great, pink is a favourite of hers as it is very feminine and she likes soft fabrics such as silk and wool.
With quite small features she can often appear doll like and delicate but she is far from it. Large hooded eyes sit above a straight perfect nose reaching down to full, often rouged lips and her skin holds no imperfection or freckle - good genes.

AND ALL YOU KNOW ,
[/font]AND ALL YOU KNOW ,
and how you speak
------------------------------------------------------------[/center]
dreaming of how her life could be
making new pieces up on the piano
spending time with those from her house and others
those with similar qualities to herself
her room at home
the rose garden of their house
a history of magic.
CHARACTER DISLIKES: potions
that she is forever in the shadow of her sister
when her parents disregard her achievements
most slytherings
how dark colours make her look like she's going to a funeral
that everyone thinks she's spanish
the fears that hold her back at times
studying
when people look straight past her
GOALS: To become herself and shrug off her family name.
BOGGART: To lose everything & to be broken with no one caring or being able to make everything better again
PATRONUS: a lynx because they match her colouring and are brave but do not stand out overly.
DEMENTOR: when she was 13 she climbed the highest tree in her Mother's orchard, once seated up there she was as happy as can be, but after a few minutes she was suddenly attacked by hundreds of little stick men that she at the time had no idea existed. After taking a fall from the tree she broke her leg in 3 places and has never climbed a tree since.
AMORENTIA: Roses, freshly baked bread, clean hair and her Mothers favourite perfume which will one day be hers.
BASIC PERSONALITY: Dahlia is pretty much what you would label as your typical Gryffindor, she tries with every fibre of her being to embrace her house and give as many reasons as she can for her placement there, after her entire family had been patrons of the Slytherin house, Dahlia often feels she has to strive constantly to keep herself afloat. Living for her entire life in the shadow of her elder sister, a Slytherin of course, Dahlia feels in constant competition and it is not something she has made up, her parents are constantly telling her she should be more like Jezebel and less like a.. Gryffindor.
Her personality has many sides, though she stifles many elements of it so she can keep her place in both her worlds. When she's at home it is easy for her to slip into the ideal of what her parents want for a daughter, full of snobbery, wit and prejudice, but the characteristics are just not what lies truly in her heart and she loves to be back at Hogwarts where she can be herself.
Though far from a book worm, Dahlia excels in almost every subject she tackles, absorbing information like her mind was starving and tackling every problem with a vigor that suprises most, she is enthusiastic about the most mundane tasks and convinces herself that through her academic achievements she will be able to step out of the shadow of her sister. Now that her sister has left school she is allowed to express herself and become who she truly is, a sweet girl at heart with little outright reasons to offend others. She gets along with most around the school, and approaches everyone with a friendly air that she cannot shake.

MOTHER: Genevieve De Luca 38
BROTHER(S): n/a
SISTER(S): Jezebel De Luca 22
OTHER:
BLOOD STATUS: Pure
HOMETOWN: Lozère
CURRENT RESIDENCE: Hampstead, London
BIOGRAPHY: For generations the De Luca family have lived in the South of France, becoming a name in France that many were familiar with, through their investments in the business world and their influential powers over others. They have remained painstakingly pure blood even after this time and they hold every prejudice of the families such as Black do over the channel, but since the day Dahlia Yvette De Luca was brought into the world on that dark March night, it was plain that the girl would be different from her ancestors. With shining gold tinged hair she stood apart from her ebony haired sibilings as the child that would be a problem.
As a little girl she shied away from the cruel pranks her siblings and cousins of her age played on each other, pointing stolen wands on each other and locking limbs along with other cruel tricks, she preferred to spend her days riding the miniature horses her family had given her for her fifth birthday present.She always had a love for animals that her family had tried to prune from a young age, they weren't productive ideas and didn't really matter in the grand scheme of things so they tried to twist Dahlia back to become like the other children with close teaching sessions concerning the history of Wizardry and how muggles were ruining their precious blood. The lectures had the opposite effect, they intensified her interest in the history of her family and her heritage but they did not create any fire inside her or hatred towards those with diluted blood.
When she was 9 years old, her Father got a new job in England, something that he wouldn't usually be interested, but it was an influential ministry position and would mean he as closer to the dark force that was growing in the heart of the country. With the move, Dahlia became more nostalgic, turning to other forms of entertainment to keep her from interacting with her only friend; her elder sister. From a young age the two had jarred, not at Dahlia's choice but because Jezebel could not accept that a De Luca held so little interest in the fight against the muggles and the unworthy, she forever chastised the little girl, telling her she was adopted as most sibilings do at some stage and constantly pointing out that their parents loved her more than they did Dahlia.
Though most little girls were able to shake off such jibes as this, once it had been said, the younger girl began observing more and more, each parent invested more time in Jezebel, they praised her like they never did Dahlia and she was always being lavished with expensive gifts. It was clear to the young girl that Jezebel was the daughter they had always dreampt of, cruel and prejudiced she would carry on the family name well, firing fear into the hearts of the other students at the new school she now attended.
Hogwarts was a terrifying experience to her, she knew no one and longed to be back in her own country, attending the school she had always dreamed about, but no matter how much she cried she was only degraded by her perfect sister. When she stood on that stage with the sorting hat upon her head, Dahlia suddenly realised her whole world was about to come crashing down upon her, and sure enough as the hat touched her head, it cried out Gryffindor, not Slytherin. From that day everything became worse, her sister disowned her at school, whispered harsh words and shout cruel jokes at her across the corridor as she did everyone in the lions house. And though all she ever received from her sister was hatred, Dahlia still strived to mend the gap and try and redeem herself in the eyes of her sister and her family, but til this day, she has still remained the unfavoured child, shunned to the side and always at the back of her families mind.
