full appearance :
Jaclyn isn’t overly pretty, nor is she ugly. She describes herself as average, because that’s what she is. You know the girls that don’t only turn heads; they break necks? Well, Jaclyn is not, under any circumstance, one of those girls. She can get a smile or a look from either of the sexes, but she doesn’t have groups of people following her and calling her pretty. She’s satisfied with her appearance and doesn’t change it much, unless she gets bored.
Her skin is pale, but not too pale. Porcelain looking, perhaps. During the summer she tans, just to keep her skin looking normal. No blemishes are visible on her face, unless you catch her around exams. She gets what she calls ‘stress pimples’. They form at the worst times, too. Whether it’s a ball or a final, you might see an imperfection on her skin. She likes make-up, especially eyeliner. However, she isn’t one of those girls who refuse to leave their dormitory before ‘putting on their face’. First impressions count, but they are usually wrong, so Jaclyn doesn’t see why so many girls are caught up on their make up.
Naturally, her hair is a dirty blonde, but lately it has been turning darker and redder, like her mother's hair. Hereditary genes must have caught up with her after all. Her hair goes to about her middle of her ribcage, but she cuts it to her shoulders in the beginning of every summer. Whether her hair is long or short, it can usually be found in a ponytail or curled. Her hair is naturally curly, but it can sometimes look unruly so Jaclyn will fix it up a little with a curling iron. A lot of people think that Jaclyn's hair is really pretty, but she thinks it’s just, like the rest of her, average.
Clothes don’t matter that much to Jaclyn. She has clothes that she wears when she’s ‘dressing to impress’. But usually Jaclyn is just wearing a T-shirt and sweats. Muggle band shirts are usually on her torso, over a camisole or a tank top. She likes tight jeans too, she thinks they are comfortable. Jaclyn owns about one or two mini skirts, but they mainly collect dust in her trunk. Of course she wears the school uniform, it makes her look oddly innocent, but she likes to stick to the clothes that she owns instead of the school girl outfit that she’s required to wear.

overall personality :
This girl is trouble. Now, most teenagers could say that about themselves, but with Jaclyn; it's true. The pot smoking, sex loving, guitar playing, bisexual, muggleborn is someone that is impossible to forget. Jaclyn really doesn't know any better. She never had any rules as a child and her mother didn't give a f**k when it came to her only daughter. This made her bad. She always got her way and did whatever she wanted; and she loved it. Honestly, she would have it no other way. She's got a lot of bad characteristics in her, but deep down there is at least one good one, I think.
Her drug addiction is up there. She isn't into cocaine or LSD, mostly alcohol, marijuana, and cigarettes. As she traveled around the Europe, weed was really popular and highly available, so she started getting hooked. She gets high at least once a day, unless she's really ill, and I mean really ill. Like, she has to be hospitalized or have pneumonia before she'll skip getting high. She gets drunk regularly as well. Parties are her things she loves them. The party hasn't started until Jaclyn shows up. She supplies the drugs, the fun, and the sex. The girl's a slut, to be blunt. She'll f**k anything that is good-looking and has two legs. She's into girls and guys, this bisexual would never turn down a one-night stand.
When she's not getting high or having sex, she's playing guitar. Jaclyn is practically obsessed with the instrument. She originally picked up on it while in Germany and immediately fell in love with the instrument. She doesn't write her own music; she's far too lazy to do that. Instead, she'll just play random notes or songs that she's heard on the radio or at the circus. She loves music, but doesn't plan on making a career out of it. There are plenty of poor musicians out there; Jaclyn doesn’t need to be one of them. She is also very smart, more street smart than book smart, but smart nonetheless. She’s learned a lot from her mother’s friends and the other circus folk, but she picks up things at an alarming rate. If you give her a textbook, within a week she’ll be able to pass an OWL on the subject. She’s kind of nerdy, she likes to read.
This girl isn't all about drugs, sex, and rock 'n roll; Jaclyn does have a nice side to her, well, kind of. She'll be a friend to you, if she deems you worthy of her friendship. The girl is cocky as all hell and doesn't know when to shut her mouth. She's obnoxious, she's loud, she'll speak her mind, her french accent will drive you nuts, but you'll love her anyway. Her friends are the selected few. The only people that she will be friends with are people like her; drug addicts, sex kittens, bad asses, musicians, you know the type. If you're her friend, then consider yourself lucky because she doesn't make many friends. Mainly because she's far too cool for half the people at Hogwarts, or so she thinks. If you are her friend, however, she will go to great lengths to ensure your happiness. Jaclyn is one of those people who has to be surrounded by people constantly. She can get along with people and make frineds quickly, even if she doesn't always keep them. Her group of friends is really tight. Jaclyn was placed in the house of the badger because she is so very keen on keeping her friends close and her enemies closer. Let's just say that her loyalty doesn't waver, ever.
Man does this girl flirt. She loves the ladies and the men, and they love her. If you're a straight girl, she'll hit on you, if you're a gay guy, she'll hit on you. Sexual orientation is the last question that crosses her mind when it comes to flirting with someone. She's proud of her sexuality, but isn't one of those weird activists. Jaclyn mainly just wants to have a good time, what's so bad about that? She gets mad when she doesn't get what she wants. Jaclyn wasn’t spoiled as a child, but she did have her mother wrapped around her finger, so she got her way most of the time. If things don't go her way, nothing is going to happen. It's Jaclyn's way or the highway.
Many would say that Jaclyn has balls, not in the male genitalia way, in the gutsy way. She would never, ever dream of turning down a challenge or dare. To put it simply, she’s a daredevil. Yes, Jaclyn really has no fear. Fear is an emotion that the girl had never really experienced. She has never been put up against a boggart, so she isn’t sure if she fears anything. Now, that sounds kind of ridiculous, but if you saw some of the stunts that Jaclyn has pulled, you would believe it, too. Never would Jaclyn turn down a dare, it would dishonor herself. Some call it courage, but Jaclyn calls it keeping her pride in check. She has no problem with doing whatever someone tells her, because she wants to look like she has guts, I guess you could say she wants to look cool. But Jaclyn, by her definition, is cool. So who is to say that she isn’t just showing off?
- THE BEGINNING
hometown : London, England
mother and father : Vanessa Christman and Simon Capper
brothers and sisters : --
other relatives : --
overall history :
Once upon a time, a beautiful baby girl named Jaclyn Sandra Christman was born. Her parents couldn’t have been happier that they had her. Her mother, Vanessa Christman, had a huge smile on her face after a difficult five-hour labor. While her father, Simon Capper was in another room, trying not to faint after witnessing the birth of his first child. After a three-day stay, the couple was permitted to take their darling daughter home to a two-story town house in the heart of muggle London. This was perfectly normal, however. A muggle family going back to their muggle home after giving birth to a… witch. Little did Vanessa and Simon know their daughter Jaclyn was going to be a witch with powers more than any muggle could imagine. But no, for the moment she was a muggle child, acting like a muggle, and not showing any sign of magical powers.
At the age of three, Simon joined the police force, with a lot of enthusiasm. He wanted to keep London safe for his wife and his little girl. His job went fine for awhile, but when he went off one night to a drug bust, he never saw his little girl or wife again. For awhile, Vanessa had been planning to ditch Simon and travel with a man, Michael, whom she had fell in love with. Vanessa had already taken back her maiden name and given it to her daughter as well. She didn’t think that little Jaclyn would ever remember her Father, she was so young after all, and she didn’t. That probably made joining the carnival feel like second nature to Jaclyn.
So off the mother and daughter went! They joined UK’s finest, a traveling carnival that went as north and Iceland and as south as Greece. The carnival traveled all over the place, introducing Jaclyn to new people, cultures, foods, you name it. It was her mother, she, and a bunch of carnival people that felt like family. Never did Vanessa think that her daughter was a witch, and never did they think of Simon or try to contact him. Jaclyn loved the carnival, she thought it was the best thing in the world. UK’s finest ended up traveling around mainly France for a long time, there was a lot of business there, and it made Jaclyn pick up a light French accent, but she didn’t mind.
When Jaclyn began showing signs of magical sign, Vanessa was very reluctant to let her go to Hogwarts. She couldn’t imagine traveling without her little girl at her side. Michael, the man that Vanessa fell in love with, was a wizard and promised to go back after each year and pick Jaclyn up so they could travel around with UK’s finest for the summer. But mommy dearest, Jaclyn belonged at Hogwarts. Jaclyn was happily sent to the school when she received her acceptance letter. The magical world was a mystery to Vanessa and she wanted it to remain that way. She wouldn’t help with Jaclyn's school shopping, but thankfully Diagon Alley was in London, where the carnival stopped at each summer, so she had no problem getting there. Every year when Jaclyn returned home, she would go off with her Mother to wherever the carnival took them. That’s how she found drugs, that’s how she met friends, that’s how Jaclyn began to find herself.
