GENERAL APPEARANCE: Naturally, Felicia's skin is very pale. As she's a vampire this isn't anything unusual. Felicia has long, light brown locks and they can be pretty wavy, but not incredibly curly or frizzy. She washes her hair once every two days so it is silky, shiny and seductive. Her looks make men trust her instantly - even though she isn't to be trusted and she's a dangerous criminal. Felicia has a perfect figure so that she can wear any outfit and look stunning in it, even second-hand clothes, not that she ever buys them. For camouflage, she buys stylish black shirt and jeans for night, and - well, she doesn't camouflage in day.

Flirtatious, pretty, smart (but doesn't show it)

Dangerously seductive, criminal, can betray you any minute

Murder, hate, showing off to the other Death Eaters of her many achievements

For Death Eaters to take over the wizarding world

If she hasn't fought or killed somebody in a while, she gets kinda feisty.

PATRONUS: The look on the other Death Eaters' faces when she told them of her achievements

DEMENTOR: Being defeated by an Order member in battle

VERITASERUM: Her parents, grandparents and both sets of aunts and uncles were actually in the Order.

MIRROR OF ERISED: Just like Goals, to defeat the Order and take over the Wizarding world.

PERSONALITY: Felicia is a very secretive woman. She doesn't share anything with anyone, nor does she trust anyone. She has never gotten close enough to anyone to call them a friend. Her childhood still haunts her, the day everything crashed for her - the way she turned so evil...When she was three, as the years went by being raised and trained by skilled Death Eaters...but let's save that for History. Felicia is so cruel with no heart because she is simply scared of her childhood happening all over again. She is on the Death Eaters' side or else she will be hunted down and killed. Felicia also likes to betray people. She builds up a good yet fake relationship with somebody, then becomes allies with them. Then she betrays them badly and disguises her self then hands them into the Ministry - then they're in Azkaban. But that's Felicia Baxter for you.

------------------------------------------------------------
CHARACTER HISTORY
------------------------------------------------------------

Early Years: Liliana Felicia Baxter was born on December 25th 1989. I know, it's Christmas, and her family were all ready with Christmas dinner and the festive decorations. Felicia was happy, and her mother kept her well fed, warm and always in her company. But then, at three, Felicia's mother (who was called Felicia lol) left her in the streets in the pouring rain. Hours drew by like years, and Felicia let out one last, weak, frail wail, and a nearby passing Death Eater named Irene saw her and heard her. She took pity on this poor, weak little baby, and thought to herself. She and her husband Edward had been trying for years, and here was a ready-made baby right in front of her. Irene took a deep breath, then picked up the little soul and wrapped her up in a thick, delicate blanket. When they got home, Irene dried and fed the baby. She changed her nappy and put her to bed.

Years drew by, and soon Irene noticed a strange-looking letter in the post. Then she realized - it was addressed to Miss Felicia Baxter! Irene had tried to convince Felicia to change her last name to Rowan - Felicia Rowan - but Felicia was firm and kept it as Baxter. Then Felicia went to Hogwarts, and she was sorted into Slytherin. Her life went down, down, even more down than it had been before. Down past Hell, down past the devil, and soon she was the most miserable girl in Hogwarts. Then.... She finally graduated.

Hogwarts Years: Then Felicia went to Hogwarts, and she was sorted into Slytherin. Her life went down, down, even more down than it had been before. Down past Hell, down past the devil, and soon she was the most miserable girl in Hogwarts. In her sixth year, she met a love interest who brought her happiness back. His name was Tyler. They dated each other till seventh year, then entered an exclusive relationship. But then Tyler was kidnapped during the holidays and his mother informed Hogwarts. Felicia was the most emotional out of all Tyler's friends and acquaintances. She cried herself to sleep. Even after graduation, she is still looking for him.

Adulthood: After Felicia graduated, she 'accidentally' stole a wallet from somebody's pocket. She earned a hefty deal of money and stuck to that job. Felicia stole from anywhere she found - wasn't caught once. But now, she is more at risk of being caught. Because she can't stay hidden much longer. She is wanted and she is lying low. She can disguise well, and then - she became a vampire. As of being a criminal, she stole from people, then bit and killed them. It was a good job. Good pay. Any hours she wanted. And, she didn't have a boss.

Ok, wait a sec. I have lots of questions. Liliana looks very much like some other established characters on the site. It seems to me that in order for her to work well, she needs to differentiate herself from the other villains on the site. So, with that in mind,...

First, in your good traits/bad traits--i see nothing that tells me what her magical skills are. i dont' see any classes she excelled in or did badly in, so i am not getting a good picture of her. can you add to this section for me? (magical skills, not classes) second, i have a real issue with a 19 year old being such a skilled seductress and such a skilled villain. she's just too young for all that. I'd rather see her be a bit older or have you back down on all the excessive skill. she's just overpowered for her age. she might be aiming to age into that, to develop experience in doing some of those things, but its not realistic to think that she could do that when she was, most likely only a year or so out of Hogwarts.

She needs to be a halfblood because she's not a canon character. Site rules do specify that purebloods need to be canons. So, yeah. Halfblood it is.

Her history confuses me. Her bio mom who took such good care of her just up and left her in the rain? What? Why? Where was dad? That doesn't make sense to me. And--even if someone else did take her in, they would have surely had to get custody of her legally through the ministry of magic. It doesn't make sense that someone would have known her bio last name if she was an orphan. Besides that, we have sooooo many orphans on the site, that we aren't really allowing any more orphan characters anymore anyway. She does need to have some roots--either in a biological or adoptive family. I see the similarities between harry's start in the world and hers with the letters, etc, but it doesn't make sense in liliana's history.

Boyfriend's kidnapping--not enough information here. there is nothing to tell me that they have any evidence that he was kidnapped. Only that he came up missing. This bit does not make sense to me. and i'm not seeing the relevance to who liliana is now.

next--pickpocketting skills? it is not realistic to think that she would not have gotten caught her first time picking a pocket. that takes slight of hand and practice. its also not realistic to think she never got caught at theft ever.

and--what's she wanted for? you didn't specify. we have no history on that.

lastly, the whole vampirism thing. there is insufficient history on it, and, frankly, i don't think it helps her characterization by making her one, except to perhaps cause motive for killing. but, there's no backstory on how she became a vampire, how it changed her, etc. i'm not sure its necessary for her character if she really is evil. If its relevant, I need to see more on that and how it connects for her. i'd like to see her have some stronger motivations than that. on PA, the Ministry has always provided free blood for vampires so that it stops the feeding frenzies. There would be no reason for her to kill just for that alone.

I think its fine to want to make a villain but it isn't always easy to firm up the foundation underneath them so that they become individualistic. I want to see her work well on the boards for you. So--Try going back and looking for ways to make her a realistic exception to the norm. the questions I asked might guide you a bit.

And, as always, we will be glad to try to give you some guidance on how to frame her up so that she becomes successful for you!

Ok... dearie lets see if we can make some improvements on this app!

Ok first thing first, in your good traits/bad traits-- like Khaat said I don't see anything that tells me what her magical skills are. Maybe perhaps you can put that she good at Dueling, Potions and perhaps maybe wandless magic or something along those lines. As for bad traits you can put that maybe she's impatient, terrible at charms or something along those lines and maybe put that she's a betrayer.

Next... Boyfriend's kidnapping-- not information here how did he get kidnapped, was it by death eaters or was it simply by order members or someone who killed him to be with you? Perhaps you can make it to where he was kidnapped by someone who liked you or something along those lines I'll leave that up to you! Wink

And her history: Her mother left out out in the rain, Ok... why did she leave her? was it because her father died and she felt like it was her fault so she just left her there in the rain? If you need any ideas PM and I'll help you through it! Wink

also what is she wanted for? was it killing massive aurors or killing 1,000 or millions of people? once again PM if you need help! Wink

I'm here to help you get this app approve so you can start RPing with her right away dearie!

by **Khaat Lupin** Thu May 03, 2012 2:25 am

Millions? BAHAHAHAHAHAHA, Soph! ROFL. Wiping out all of England, are we? I was thinking a bit smaller scale might be sufficient to make her wanted. (that was the best giggle i've had all evening.)

by **Sophia Granger** Thu May 03, 2012 2:29 am

Hey! it could happen! Razz

Ok... so I went a bit overboard but yeah... I was trying to help her a bit!

by **Khaat Lupin** Thu May 03, 2012 4:27 am

i just got a good laugh out of it. lol.

by Ne'Os Emof Thu May 03, 2012 6:09 am

Well I hope this gets fixed and sorted. I can just imagine all the fun times Ne'Os can have with this potentially amazing character. Some things to think of for making a villain character.

Just consider some of these things they are my own personal opinions and may be completely wrong but oh well Very Happy

It is my personal theory that people think villains are easy that is so untrue lol. I mean look at me I haven't gotten it right yet and I have had one for years. Villains need structure and you do have a set up but it seems like you have it so that a good thing happens and then a bad thing happens. Such as your happy family that abandons you and then you have the everything is bad until you find your true love (first love more likely) and then he is kidnapped.

Your allegiance is to the death eaters yet you state in your history that you betray people you work with to the ministry. I would change that or you will find your character extremely hunted by me Very Happy

You say your wanted is that from robbery? murder? treason? vampirism isn't illegal unless you didn't register to the department of creatures. Is that why your wanted?

I would try to avoid the wealthy bit as it it really just overdone. Ne'Os started wealthy but now he isn't mostly thats how it turned out but oh well Very Happy

.

You need to set up some side history. Is it possible for her to actually find one friend in the world? Does she have a hobby? Ne'Os makes magical artifacts in his spare time and when he isn't doing that he is usually in a pub somewhere.

You can be as evil as you want but you have to be good once in a while who/what is your weakness. Ne'Os cant help but be nice to Sammantha Burns and Khaat. He even goes out of his way to help them.

No one is perfect what is your fatal flaw? Ne'Os is afraid of death and goes to great lengths to avoid it such as his dream to become a vampire again and to build another horcrux.

Your character needs a area of magic they excel in but it has to have some sort of drawback . Ne'Os is great with magical artifacts and has made amazing things but they do come with a cost. He created a set of robes that while they protected him from many spells they corrupted his soul and drove him mad.

Your patronus "The look on the other Death Eaters' faces when she told them of her achievements" Is a little unrealistic I would at least consider changing it. Maybe to when you were found by the death eater woman or even your love Tyler. Because I can guarantee you t hat this crowd of death eaters have such big egos that no one can impress them bu themselves.
