Personality: Alex loves to wear loose fitting clothing, but not so loose that it just falls off of her. Her favorite outfit is that of tee shirts, jeans, large hooded jackets, and tennis shoes. However she looks just as good in a dress as the next girl, but she hates to dress up. She will tolerate it for maybe two days out of the year, but she would rather much be wearing her favorite type of clothes.
She also has a tendency to act upon instincts. She has a habit of following her gut, and not giving it a second thought. She is very independent and absolutely hated asking for help; she’d rather deal with whatever on her own. Even when help is offered, she’d decline. Most people view it as independence and stubbornness. If rubbed the wrong way, she can, and will, lose her temper. She has one hell of a temper, but it takes a lot for her to lose it.
The life we lead must be worth living,
it gives us all a story.

Mother: Alyssa Yates
Father: Nicholas Yates
Siblings: None, is an only child.
Full History: Alex was born on June the 3rd Alyssa Yates and Nicholas Yates. Her mother was very proud full-blood witch, and her father was a muggle with a dark secret that is only known between the three of them. She is an only child. However when she was about two, her parents became rather alarmed. Alex had taken deathly ill and the only thing that saved her was her father’s blood. When the following month she had another episode, and yet again her father’s blood had saved her. It turns out, from her father’s maker, that she would have to have monthly ‘fusions’, or digest if you like, of her father’s lifeblood in order to survive. Her father’s deep dark secret, is that he is a vampire.
As soon as Alex turned five, she began to show signs of extraordinary powers. She began to fly without the help of an enchanted broomstick, had unusual human strength, and could see excellently at night. She was then whisked into training by her father in order to control these abilities, and she excelled at the control she was taught. However at the same time some of her vampiric abilities exhibit themselves, she was also talented from her mother’s side of the family. Alex was also able to force others to give her what she wanted just by staring into their eyes, unfortunately this had never worked on her parents. As her mother had the magical ability as well and her father had this ability due to his vampirism well. As soon as she showed promise of magical power, her mother had placed a ‘training’ wand in her hand and started to teach her the very basics of her talent. She was taught by her mother basic spells that are learned in the first year at Hogwarts, and is thriving in them. So before she arrived at the school, she is already ahead of most of the other first year students.
It wasn’t long before she was known as the modern Harry Potter. Granted she didn’t accomplish so much, like he did, but she has continuously escaped the clutches of death. As in her first year, she was sorted into Gryffindor and very quickly rumors started around her. She was at first puzzled as to why other students were staring at her, pointing, and then whispering. She heard every world that was of course whispered about her. ’She is so pale…’ ‘She isn’t a human…’ ‘My mum said that she is dangerous and we should wear garlic…’ She heard every word, and no one even made the effort to be her friend. So when one of her father’s enemies infiltrated the security measures in place to keep the students at school safe, and then preformed the Cruciatus Curse on her. The only way she survived was due to the vampire blood in her, for no one had known it was being cast inside the castle for at least a few hours. She was only saved due to the fact that one of the professors sensed something amiss, and found out that she was missing from her bed before searching for her. The professor stumbled across her and her attacker by complete accident, and stepped in to save the girl.
Alex still doesn’t have many friends, but her troubles are not over in the slightest.
