Overall Appearance: At least 2 PARAGRAPHS, please, describing your character's overall appearance...

Scarlette is rather short and sometimes wishes she were taller, but Draco doesn't seem to mind at all so she doesn't care all that much. Her hair is normally kept long, wavy, and it's always been brown. Scarlette's favorite thing about her apearance is her eyes. They're hazel and change colors from green, to brown, to blue, normally somehow matching what she is wearing (so in her Hogwarts years they were most often green). If someone compliments her on her eyes she's been known to thank them and then ask them what color they are, because she never knows for sure.

Scarlette is slender, and she works to keep it that way. She is most often seen in dark colors, green and black are her favorites, supporting Slytherin, but that's not all she wears. Being short, she has the opportunity to wear heels, making her, at tallest, maybe 5'8", which still isn't even close to her fiance's height. Short dresses with high heels are common in her wardrobe, though in the wintertime you're more likely to see her in dark jeans and a sweater.

Overall Personality: At least 2 PARAGRAPHS, please.

Scarlette is not your typical Slytherin graduate. She can be cold and heartless, and downright nasty, and had been often in her Slytherin years, but she does have a heart and she can be very caring. She's not wishy-washy, and doesn't open up to people very well, but she's not straight off cold with everyone. She's polite, but not extremely friendly. She has a few close people she can call friends, one of which she keeps a secret from her fiance (something she hates to have to do). She probably would have never befriended Harry Potter if she hadn't ran into him visiting her father's grave.

Scarlette is loving and compassionate. She cares about those she is close to. However she's not close to many. If you were to meet Scarlette she would probably politely say hello, but not much more than that. In her Hogwarts years, she was cold and shut people out, she didn't like being around a lot of people all the time. She's very dedicated, and studied hard in school, especially in Potions, as it interested her and her father was the teacher. She is loyal, too, to those she cares for. Scarlette is hard to describe, but she is her, cold, but warm, nasty, but nice, indifferent, but caring. It all depends on who she's around as to whether or not she's cold or caring.

THE HISTORY;;

At LEAST 3 PARAGRAPHS describing your character's history, please!

Scarlette's family history is clouded and unknown to her. Adopted as a baby by Severus Snape and kept secret to the world...a very guarded secret. Scarlette never knew her true parents, never knew why Severus adopted her, and never cared to know either. All she knew was what she was told...that she was a pureblood, and that Severus was her adoptive father. She rarely called him 'Dad' or 'Daddy' or 'Father' or anything of the like, because she knew he preferred she call him Severus, as an equal. Scarlette, however, considered him her true father, the only father she ever knew.

Scarlette attended Hogwarts School of Witchcraft and Wizardry, but was still kept a bit of a secret. Somehow hidden, but not hidden from the world...invisible, but still there. She was sorted into Slytherin where she met and fell in love with Draco Malfoy. She could see past his harsh exterior, see that a lot of what he did was for his father, to make his father proud. She could see the light within the dark. When the war between good and evil raged, Scarlette was torn between two places. She knew her father was actually good, but under the veil of a Death Eater, while her boyfriend and his family were a part of the Death Eaters. She knew, or hoped, that she one day would take the name of Malfoy, but she didn't support Voldemort. Her father, protecting her, didn't give her a choice. He pulled her from Hogwarts, and hid her in their home, safe from the world. He visited her every couple of days with news from the outside world. She desperately wanted to leave the house and wanted to see Draco, but she knew she couldn't. Cooped up in the house alone, it was driving her insane! Until one day an owl arrived with the Daily Prophet. Having nothing better to do, Scarlette sat down, ready to read the thing cover to cover. The first headline popping out, being that the Dark Lord, Voldemort, was dead. Scarlette's eyes widened and a smile broke out on her face, but then worry crossed over. Her father hadn't come home yet. Her eyes searched the pages hungrily until she came to the obituaries. Fred Weasley, she frowned...she may not have liked the Weasley's but a loss still sucked a lot, Nymphadora and Remus Lupin, Bellatrix will celebrate...or not, Bellatrix Lestrange, that saddened her a bit more, Draco's aunt, she was totally insane, but still his family, Severus Snape.....

Scarletted didn't want to believe it when she read that Severus Snape had died. She locked herself in his room for days...maybe even a week, until one morning she decided enough was enough and dragged herself out of the room. She got herself cleaned up, dressed in all black, and decided to leave the house. She'd found his will, everything left to her. This sweet man who had adopted her as a child, no other family to his name, raised her, protected her...had left her everything he had. She didn't understand, but she didn't want to understand, he was her father, that's all she knew, all she cared to know. Scarlette had searched all the papers and all the obituaries for anything on Draco Malfoy and hadn't found anything. Finally she figured it was about time she went searching for him. When she finally arrived at Malfoy Manor, Scarlette became very nervous. She hadn't seen Draco for a long time, months even, but she had to know, she had to know he was alright. If he had moved on from her, so be it, as much as that would be painful, she had to see he was okay. She waited on the doorsteps, but couldn't bring herself to knock or anything, but before she could, Narcissa opened the doors for her. Scarlette had met Lucius and Narcissa on occassions before and behaved politely, but she never expected the welcoming she would recieve from Narcissa. Narcissa Malfoy pulled Scarlette inside quickly and then pulled her into a tight hug, where Scarlette froze not quite knowing what to do. Narcissa informed Scarlette that Draco was upstairs, and Scarlette almost ran to him. She found him, and could tell that he was severely impacted by the events of the battle. She sat next to him in silence and stroked his hair softly, resting her head on his shoulder after. The house was quiet, and an unspoken decision was made to let Scarlette stay for a while.

It's been two years since then. Draco proposed to Scarlette and she accepted, the two are still engaged. Scarlette had her father buried in Godric's Hollow, in the same graveyard that Lily and James Potter were buried. She visited him often, leaving him red roses each time. On one occasion, Scarlette walked the graveyard and found a boy with jet black hair standing in front of her father's grave. This puzzled her and she stood for a moment, unsure of what to do, but finally walked up to the grave and bent to place the red roses in front of it. She looked up to see the puzzled face of Harry Potter in front of her. Plucking two red roses from the bouquet she handed them to him and softly said "For your parents.", gesturing to their graves. The pair left the gravesite together and had a long conversation over a few drinks. Scarlette kept this encounter a secret from Draco, fearing that it would upset him. She's run into Harry a few times since, and kept a bit of a friendship with him, but is afraid it will kill her relationship with Draco. The past is dark, the present is difficult, and the future is uncertain.

THE ROLEPLAY SAMPLE;;

"Daddy!! Daddy wake up!! Daddy!!!!!" A little girl no more than 6 years old tugged on the arm of a sleeping man. The girl was small, with long brown hair, and eyes that for the moment were a bright green. All that could be seen of the man was his arm, sticking out from under the covers. The little girl sighed and climbed up onto the bed, next to the man. "Daddy?" She pulled back the covers, revealing the man's face, sleeping peacefully. He had long black hair that looked rather greasy, and a hooked nose.

Scarlette stirred in her sleep, but did not wake. The dream switched perspectives from someone watching the scene to where Scarlette was in her own body.

Scarlette knelt next to her father and stared at his face. Finally frustrated Scarlette blew in his face, and he jolted awake. "Happy Christmas, Daddy!!" Scarlette squealed and then giggling, turned to jump off the bed, but Severus Snape smiled and hooked an arm around her pulling her to him. "Happy Christmas, baby." He whispered gently, kissing the top of her head before letting her go. Scarlette giggled and jumped off the bed, running out of the room.

Scarlette jerked awake suddenly, and a tear rolled down her face. She looked at the clock above her head, only 3am, Christmas morning. Her fiance was sound asleep next to her. With a sad smile she crawled out of bed and got dressed quietly. As she was grabbing her wand from the table beside the bed, she heard Draco move. She turned to look at him. "Where are you going?" He asked, his voice deep and groggy with sleep. Scarlette crawled onto the bed, next to him and kissed him softly. "It's Christmas morning. Go back to sleep, darling. I'll be back when you wake up." She replied quietly.

Once out in front of the house Scarlette apparated. Arriving at a snow-covered graveyard. A bouquet of red roses in hand, she stepped softly. Coming upon the graves of Lily and James Potter she dropped two red roses. Then continued to her father's grave. Not afraid of the cold snow, Scarlette knelt in front of her father's tombstone. Tears streamed down her face as she placed the roses underneath his name. "Happy Christmas, Daddy." She whispered. The wind blew her long brunette hair and she could almost hear his voice whispering "Happy Christmas, baby.". Taking one deep breath of the cold winter air, she stood up and whispered, "I love you.", before disapparating out of sight.

Credits;; Miss Scarlette Snape, for this application was made entirely off the top of her head. ♥
