"I'm Caroline. I'm the most badass hardcore person you will EVER meet. I don't like most boys, girls, or adults. If you want to be my friend, get in line. No, I'm kidding. But really, I'm pretty awesome. My best subject is probably potions. The rest of them, I don't really like. All that wand waving and talking doesn't get anywhere. We're in school to cut stuff up, boil things, stare at shriveled stuff, and then make bloody awesome concoctions with it. All the rest of it can jump off the astronomy tower. I like karate, sweets, and food. I also LOOOOOVE to play Quidditch. If you haven't guessed, I'm a beater, the toughest, most hardcore player on the team! That's about all there is to me."

google, anyone

Or personal experience. Or ask Manders, the forum's 11-year-old.

You should also include the magic/schooling information. Patronus, Boggart, House, best classes, worst classes... things of the like.

Yeah, I agree with Libby, that's the most important part. And, if I were you, I'd expand a bit more on her personality.

I'm not done with this at all, it's just a rough draft.

Oh, okay.

This just.. works. For once it actually has kind of an asian face structure.
I know it's from the Spiderwick Chronicles (which were awesome btw)
BUT SERIOUSLY.

I never liked those books, actually.

BUT YES. HOLLY LOOKS EXACTLY LIKE HER.
