Appearance: What is there to say? So many people are quick to judge you on how you look outside before they can see the beauty that you hold inside. This is why Erin wouldn't change anything about herself. Big, blond and beautiful, that's exactly what she see's when she looks in the mirror. She's definitely no skinny-minny, but noticeably overweight. Not obese, but healthy. Does she care? No. Her weight is a weapon she uses to weed out the "bad apples" of everyday life.
Build/height-
She's been overweight since infancy, born at a whopping 10lbs 7oz, she is now 15 years old, weighing 201lbs and standing about 5'5.
General Description-
Erin's favorite feature about herself is her eyes, a beautiful mixture of grey/green/blue. The funnest part about have such a strange mixture of color in your eyes is highlighting a specific color based on the color choice of your clothing. Her hair is medium to long, reaching past her shoulders right above the mid length of her back, with natural waves built in. She, of course, exaggerates the waves to bold curls occasionally, and on a rare occasion will straighten her hair completely flat.
She has a nice smile, a slight over-cut with her teeth, but your imperfections make you unique. That's how she see's it at least. Flawless is boring.
Possessions- Just typical teenage girl necessity's. She's very into make-up and hair styles. Keeps up with the latest wizard and muggle fashions and loves her jewelry.
Personality:
Just not lest ye be judged.
Erin will never judge you upon first glance. She welcomes unfamiliar surroundings, interesting people, gossip, etc. She's very open about who she is and how she feels and expects the same from those she surrounds herself with.
She loves to laugh, her jokes are usually lame and she has a tendency to give away the punchline too soon, but people say it adds to her charm. She can be immature at times, and lives by the motto: "You're only young once!"
She is very forgiving, but if she is absolutely crossed, well, Hell hath no fury like an Erin scorned.
Temperment/Mental Attributes-
Erin is a very patient individual. It takes a lot to get her riled up. Her easiest buttons would be shots towards her mother or brother, especially since the "Third Robert Down" can be a bit creepy at times.
Alliance- Friends and family, she is loyal to those whom are loyal to her.

History-
There isn't much to say. Erin's mother and father met in Hogwarts, fell madly in love during their 6th year and married straight out of school. Her father continued his education and is currently working at St. Mungo's with his father. Charlie, her mother, chose to stay home and after Robert Jr. graduated from higher education, they started their family.
The first born, a son, was named after his father, like his father before him. Two years later, Erin was born. Funny fact about Erin's birth, they were expecting her to be a boy. Charlie wanted to name her Erin after her Great-Grandfather. Imagine their surprise when Erin showed her face to the world, missing a..well, limb. They chose to keep the name for her, and there we have it.
Over the next 9 years, Erin and her brother, Robbie, lived as any magical family wold. Then, when Erin turned 9, Robbie received his letter for school. Ooo, she was so jealous. He insisted that the school was full of so much mystery, promised her he would map it out and when he was old enough to go to school, he'd show her the ropes.
The night he left, they received an Owl informing them that Robbie had been accepted into Ravenclaw. Her father couldn't have been more proud. Robbie kept with the family tradition. Her mother, a former Hufflepuff, was the only non-Ravenclaw in Erin's entire family. When Erin was sorted, there was no doubt she'd be placed in Ravenclaw, her father had everything planned.
Two years went by faster than you could say gooseberry pie, and soon Erin found herself sitting on the stool, awaiting the sorting hats judgment. He twirled around her thoughts, picking at her brain.
'Yes, I sense Ravenclaw in you,' the Hat had said and Erin couldn't help but beam. She would follow through with her fathers plans.
'But not quite enough for you to settle in their nest,' the Sorting hat grumbled. 'Yes, I know just the place for you...HUFFLEPUFF!'
It felt as though her world crashed down. Her father was going to be so disappointed. The hat was removed and she was welcomed by other Hufflepuff students. Not smart enough? Did the hat call her stupid? She laughed a little to herself. Well, the silly old thing had probably sorted one too many students.
After the sorting ceremony, dinner and being led to her common room, Erin wrote to her father apologizing for failing him. 'On the bright side,' she had ended her letter, 'Mum was in this house and she did meet you.'
Robbie had lapsed on his promise. When Erin was sorted into Hufflepuff, he looked at her like she didn't exist anymore. It crushed her. He didn't completely ignore her, but his promise to help her out in this school fell, he'd answer her if she called, but would leave soon afterwards with some silly excuse. Her father was disappointed, it was apparent when she went home on holiday, though he did try to hide it as best he could. Her mother, on the other hand, couldn't have been more proud.,
Over the next few years, Erin made her own group of friends, some from each house, and proceeded to live her own life. Her brother fell into a strange whack, she read about his current phase in a magazine over the last summer. Emo. Goth. Whatever you wanted to label it as, it was him. He preferred to be alone, dressed in black, would find his happiest times in the comforts that surrounded only him. He was easily irritated when someone approached him and was usually pretty cold. Robbie isn't a bad guy, though. There is plenty of good in him. Erin suspected it was his breakup with Seria Sloan the year before that did this to him, but knew better than to ask.
So now she is prepared to start her fifth year, Robbie is graduating this year as well. As bad as it may sound, she's looking forward to him being out of the school.
