First Name:Kirstyn
Last Name:Hayes
Heritage:Muggleborn
Age: 36
Wand:9 and ½ inch Redwood with thestral hair core.
Looks
Eyes:Kirstyn has sparkling, sky blue eyes.
Hair: Shoulder length, sandy blonde hair.
General Appearance: Kirstyn Hayes stands roughly 5 feet 6 inches. Her face is lightly brushed with freckles, which her mother used to call “fairy dust” when Kirstyn was just a child.
Dressing Style:
Kirstyn does not really have a set style; she wears what she feels most comfortable in, depending on the day. One day she may feel outgoing, so she’ll decide to wear a spunky outfit. Other days she might feel conservative, so she’d choose to wear jeans and a hooded sweatshirt.
Most of the time, Kirstyn’s children frown on her choice of clothing, especially when she decides to just wear old jeans and a t-shirt, what they refer to her “at home and NO WHERE else clothes,” or rather clothes that they wished she would just wear at home. Whenever the family goes anywhere and the kids are allowed to bring friends, they ask Kirstyn to dress nicely. It’s not as though she is a slob or anything; she just enjoys being comfortable.
General Character Traits
Strengths:Kirstyn likes to believe g one of her strengths is being a good mother, wife, friend, and teacher. She enjoys Muggle Math equations and brain teasers.
Weaknesses: Kirstyn can sometimes come off as a klutz and scatterbrained, although most of the time she hides it well. For example: If she were to completely forget to write up a lesson plan, she could often throw one together on the spot.
Personality:
Usually, Kirstyn Hayes is a very conservative person. She likes to keep within her comfort zone, only tip-toeing outside that zone when she feels it necessary. As a child, her nickname was Little Bee. Her parents called her that because Kirstyn was constantly on the go; whether it is ballet lessons, little league practices, or many of the other activities she was involved in. She is a hard worker and strives to do her best.
Lucky enough for her children, Kirstyn is not one of those embarrassing, high maintenance mothers who follow their children around, wiping off smudges on their faces with spit on a tissues or nagging them to do their chores. She is usually a fairly lenient mother, but she does not let her children walk all over her. She shows them respect and, in turn, they show her respect by doing their chores and sticking to their curfew.
Personal History:
Both of Kirstyn’s parents are Muggles. When Kirstyn was growing up, her mother was the school nurse and her father was a postman. She got along with all of her class mates, but, even though she had a lot of friends, she always felt different from the other kids, and from her cousins. She wouldn’t find out how different she really was until June 23rd; her eleventh birthday. At first, Kirstyn’s parents didn’t tell their relatives about Kirstyn’s “abilities” as they were not sure how the family would take it. Her maternal grandparents, however, found out when Kirstyn was visiting them the summer before her second year. The owl that brought her book list delivered it to their house, and Kirstyn, not knowing that they didn’t know, excitedly told them all about Hogwarts.
Now, Kirstyn has three children, one of which inherited her magical abilities. Zoë, Kirstyn’s oldest daughter, is 17 and graduating from her Muggle high school. Jordan is 15 and a sophomore in high school. Koryn is 11 and in her first year at Hogwarts.
Raised by Muggles in an all Muggle family, Kirstyn, along with her parents, were shocked when she got her letter from Hogwarts. Her parents debated whether they should let her go or not, but in the end decided to leave it up to her. Kirstyn decided to step outside of her comfort zone and leave her old life to attend Hogwarts. She loved it! There was not a day that went by that Kirstyn didn’t learn something new. She excelled in all of her classes, due to the dedication that she put into everything she did. When the time came that she was to leave Hogwarts at the end of her Seventh year, she felt sad. She feared that she would never get the chance to return.
But her fears did not last long; four years later she was asked to return as Gryffindor Head of House, and to be a possible teacher. However, Kirstyn had to decline the offer at the time, as she was pregnant with her second child and raising her family with her husband, Jonathan, a Muggle doctor that Kirstyn met a few months after Hogwarts. She decided to wait until her children were older to accept the offer.
Now that Kirstyn’s children are at an age that they don’t need constant supervision [their father is, of course, there for them while Kirstyn is at Hogwarts], Kirstyn felt that it was time to finally go back to Hogwarts.
Strong Area of Magic:Charms, Astronomy, and Care of Magical Creatures, the latter two being taught by her.
Weak Area of Magic:History of Magic and Herbology are her weak areas of magic, although she loves Muggle History classes.
RP Sample:
[This is from my site, the first day of classes. I may use part of it as an introductory for the class on here as well.]
Astronomy Professor Kirstyn Hayes walked into her classroom and looked around. She was so happy to finally be teaching at Hogwarts- a dream that she never thought possible- and was excited to begin her first class. She placed her book bag on her desk, taking out a telescope, a few charts, and her notes.
While waiting for her students to arrive, Professor Hayes took out her wand and began putting posters of planets and stars up around the room.
Professor Hayes smiled at each student in turn as they walked into the classroom. She recognized two students as members of her house, but the other two she did not recognize as easily.
"My name is Professor Hayes. While we wait for the others to arrive, why don't you introduce yourselves to the class? Please include name, age, house, what you hope to learn, and anything else you wish for us to know." She said, taking out her wand and writing Professor Hayes on the board.
"I'll begin. My name is Professor Kirstyn Hayes. I'm way older than any of you, and I am Gryffindor Head of House. I hope to learn about each of your views about Astronomy...What else...I am Muggleborn and I have three children only one of which inherited my magical abilities." She waited patiently for each of her students to introduce themselves.
Thanks, That Was A Great Application!
