Oak and Phoenix tail feather, 11 inchesPhysical Description:
Elaquay has fiery red wavy hair that falls just above her waist. It gives the impression of flames since she always lets it out. She has slightly tannish skin with freckles and shocking silver eyes. She is very short, barely reaching 5'0 with a rather slender curvy body. Elaquay usually wears standard American T-shirts (NYC logo etc) jeans or shorts, and sneakers/converse.Personality:
Elaquay is a true Gryffindor and is often mistaken for a Weasley, and just because of the hair. She has a fiery personality and is a very bombastic and ecstatic girl. She shows courage beyond measure...sometimes to the point of stupidity and lack of common sense. She loves a good laugh and is very witty when it comes to insults and backlash. However, Elaquay also displays arrogance and lets her mouth run before her brain. She has a massive temper and can be a bit full of herself. She's also a bit tactless and doesn't realize when she insults or hurts other people.Family:
Elaquay is also a very disorganized person and tends to procrastinate. She hates highly strung people and authority figures. She doesn't have respect for people who try to boss her around. She also is extremely irresponsible and struggles with self control.
Marla Calder (nee Richardon), muggleHistory:
Steven Smithson (1979-2013), muggle
Elaquay was born in Eugene, Oregon in the United States to muggles, Marla and Steven Smithson. Ignorant of her wizarding blood, the family lived as any normal family would...living out in the farm in a small house with elementary school a few miles away and about thirty miles from the city.Other:
By the time Elaquay was nine, she started wondering if there was something different about herself. She realized that every time she touched a rose bush, it would catch on fire. This of course resulted in her parents to believe that she was purposefully setting rose bushes on fire, so they set her up with counseling and psychiatrics.
In 2013, Steven Smithson was killed by a shot to the head during robbery of a bank he worked at. Though the family was devastated, Marla remarried Jared Calder, who has a top working job as a professor. Jared's bossy and snotty attitude caused Elaquay to become increasingly distant with her mother and Jared.
When Elaquay was ten, the family moved to London due to Jared's opportunity to teach. They moved into a little apartment in Surrey. Elaquay disliked Europe due to her own insecurites of her dress and her accent, and the rudeness of every single British kid that she met.
One day, she received a letter in owl post from Hogwarts School of Witchcraft and Wizardry. This explained her abnormalities and despite many protests of being shipped off to an all "British" boarding school that teaches witchcraft and wizardry, Jared and her mother were all to eager to get rid of her.
She was sorted into Gryffindor and became one of the chasers on the team, and proved herself to be one of the most spirited and popular Gryffindors of her year.
She currently graduated from Hogwarts and is starting her job as an auror in training for the minister and is a member of the Order of the Phoenix.
Despite living in Europe for most of her life, Elaquay is purely an American witch. She dresses like an American, acts and walks like one, and her attempt at a British accent makes everyone of her friends laugh. She's also trying to study Russian and French. Russian seems to be suiting her well, but she's struggling with French. She also has a grey owl named Misty, who she thinks is an absolute pain, but loves her anyways. Her favorite candy are Bertie Botts Every Flavored Beans bcaus she likes just popping them in her mouth to see what flavor she'll get. Her favorite pastime is Quidditch and attending Quidditch matches to scream profanities at the opposing team. She also prefers firewhisky over butterbeer, and her favorite place in Hogsmeade is either the Three Broomsticks, Honedukes, or Zonko's.
