•HISTORY:
Amaranth Artemisia Parkinson was born in Inverness on the north part of the isle on October 31 at exactly midnight to Artemisia and Apollo Parkinson. They chose to name her Amaranth becayse is Latin for "immortalily" something that they feel would be wonderful to obtain and have been searching for their whole lives. They have devoted their time to research of time and trying to find something that surpasses the elixir made by Nicholas Flamel without the side effects.

She never had a normal childhood, even by a Pureblood stand point. Her parents were never at home, which isn't exactly unnormal, but it was the company that she kept that was different. The usual nanny and maids were replaced by an army of house elves and a Veela. That's right, a Veela. Her mother's best friend from childhood was 1/4 Veela. Her name was Victoria Devreaux and she aided in Amaranth's education. Under her tutelage, she learned to speak French like a native as well as Italian and a bit of Latin.

When she was eight, they took a trip to Greece and Egypt to learn more about the ancient wizards. This was a defining point in her life because she formally introduced to the Dark Arts. A man there named Nicholas Vesco took an interest in her when he saw the natural inquisitive nature she had inherited from her parents, he knew that she was different. He took her under his wing and showed her a lot of things that she still refuses to talk about.

Her relationship with her parents took a huge blow during that time. They were hurt that she refused to acknowledge them unless they were in public view and that she spent so much time with Vesco. As of right now, she still isn't talking to them. Much of the reason is a grudge that she holds over them for letting her get involved with what she did even though at the time they wouldn't have been able to talk her out of it anyways.

•SECRETS:

•• Sometimes she thinks that the Dark Lord is a little extreme. Shhh...

•• Amaranth still sleeps with a stuffed hippogriff her father gave her.

•• Avoids eye contact when she lies.

•PERSONALITY: It might seem like she wants your opinion but chances are she doesn't. She's her own person and believes that she needs to get where she wants to by herself. She's stubborn, headstrong, willfull, and determined. Amaranth is a bit egotistical (okay, a lot) and is arrogant to a fault. She doesn't just think she's better then everyone, she knows it.

She is clever but no necessarily intelligent. Her brand of intelligency is mostly her ability to come off as knowledgable and usually something that she found out from somewhere else. She doesn't retain information well and things that deal with subjects she could care less about, like Muggles, she ignores as useless. Amaranth is a very active person and can be quite fun to be around when the mood suits her.

•PATRONUS: A lioness. It doesn't show up often and she doesn't like anyone see it because they might think something that wasn't true.

•BOGGART: Herself in a coffin.

•QUIDDITCH: Yes? She likes it and can play a bit.

•ROLEPLAY SAMPLE:


Amaranth couldn't shake the feeling of being confined. It was bugging her. All day she had felt a weight on her chest, like a fist was squeezing her lungs so she wouldn't be able to breathe. There was nowhere to go inside the castle to escape this so she fled to the grounds.

It was snowing, yet again, and she grimanced. She absolutely detested the cold and snow was just another "black" mark on her day. There were some young Hufflepuffs and Gryffindors mingling by the lake and they shot her a nervous look as she stomped by. However, Amaranth couldn't be bothered by them because she just didn't care.

Pulling out her wand, she mumbled a warming spell on herself and sat down to stare out across the water. The chilled air filled her lungs slowly, evenly. It was wonderful and she felt a calm settle over her.
