Name: Mei Hotaru Kinjo
Age: 21
Birthdate/place: [13-12-1990] Okinawa, Japan
Species: Human
Gender: Female
Family: Muggle-Born
(Muggle, Father, Dead at 46) - Aki Kinjo
(Muggle, Mother, Dead at 35) - Hotaru Kinjo
(Muggle, Uncle, Unknown) - Ekki Sato
Appearance:
Build/height- Mei is probably one of the smallest teachers at Hogwarts, but that doesn't really much matter for a professor who teaches flying. She weighs a light 95-100 pounds and is about five foot in height with very small, light bones.
General Description- Over her rather, aerodynamic bones is a sheet of pale, yellow-tinted skin that looks, (and feels), very smooth with very few flaws that one can see at any given time. However, she manages to hide the scars on her thigh and lower stomach with not much of a problem.
Mei likes to wear large 'lolita' styled dresses, however whenever she is teaching, she manages to wear equally as tasteful clothing, but rarely does she wear a dress to teach in. She also always wear's fingerless gloves that lace up to her elbow, made of a thick, but yet still fashionable, leather so she can protect her arms while flying and interact safely with her owl.
Her hair is rather long with bangs that hang down to her eye brows that is a pretty shade of brown. Normally, she straightens the bangs and curls the rest of her rather long hair. Mei's eyes are also very striking, as she does not wear the usual shade of dark pigments in her eyes, she sports an amazing shade of silvery grey-blue which always seem to remind other's of pleasant dreams and clouds - not very piercing as, lovely.
Finally, when the lass walks into a room, one would notice her by her extraordinary grace and swiftness that she manages to move with. Even though her steps are small, she still manages to catch other's with the way she is graceful when she moves - as if she merely levitates and not bother to touch the ground.
Possessions- Her Oakshaft 79 Broomstick, (primarily used for traveling back and forth during the summers to Japan), her cello, and her darling male Eagle Owl, Kaede who she raced with in the mountains of Asia.
Personality:
Temperament/Mental Attributes- Mei is always very optimistic, she believes that any human can do basically anything - and she does not look down upon any single person unless they do serious evil - but even then she believe's he or she can redeem themselves if given the proper chance. She almost never snaps at people or gets violent and would never dream of hurting another soul.
Being who she is, "Professor Kinjo" is very positive and a great listener to all young and old, and always tries to help other's solve problems, especially her faculty and students. Sometimes, she almost seems to be like a well respected older sister to some of the students, or a younger to the staff.
However, on the inside, she expresses great depression which normally comes out during the breaks, which could only really be understood by hearing her play her cello. It tells tale's of a trouble time for her, and she often wakes up to nightmares - despite her being a happy, optimistic, sister-figure, she still manages great unhappiness that she tries to hide.

History-
From the beginning, her parents were a couple of young lovers, Aki and Hotaru Kinjo, who had gotten married together after eloping to Okinawa from a very strict town in the mountains. She was not born until her mother was 28, however, during the winter after the pair had settled down. Her father was a older man, actually, when she was born, he was 35 years old.
Aki taught his daughter to be optimistic about the world, and never spoke of his family back in the village where the two used to live. They taught her fluent english - which they had both known - as well as Japanese and helped her get lessons for her Cello. Soon, Mei was a young virtuoso with her cello, for her dad taught him using the knowledge he had off of his crafting of the string instruments. She would play for hours on end, and often preform in local shows, which many people seemed to enjoy.
However, when she was six or seven years old, her mom was taken away mysteriously, her father searched for months, but with no avail because he had to take care of Mei. He continued to take care of his loving daughter, telling her that she had to leave to take care of her grandparents in the mountains. She had to believe that little. Then, two years later, she turned up having died back in the village at the hands of her brother.
Nobody understood what had happened, but there was little regard to the law in that little town anyways - so her uncle was neither tried nor prosecuted for his misdoing of killing his sister. Finally, Aki had to resort to telling his daughter that mommy had to leave forever, and she would never be coming back - and Mei was crushed.
In the chaos following this, her father did not want her understanding the cruel world and she was quickly carried off to Hogwarts where she spent most of her years, only coming back for the summers when she and her father would bond.
At her seventh year of Hogwarts, she received the news that her father had died, and she knew that it was her uncle who had killed him, but she had no idea why. She traveled back there, to the mountains, after graduating and found her uncle in the city where her parents were born, a medic of some sort. He was sick, not physically, but mentally sick and he told her a terrible tale of how he was in love with her mother, and had to kill her so she could reincarnate and be his once again.
By that time, however, she had read the books her father had left her, which she received in the middle of her last year studying at Hogwarts, and fled from the village after she heard what he had to say. She lived as a freelance music artist for several years, playing her cello and trying hard to survive when her uncle came in the midst of a performance and she had to leave the scene.
He met her at her home and tried to kill her, not until he tried to violently make her do the things she didn't want to, particularly sexual and violent activities that short evening. Within moments of finding him at her house, he attempted to not only threaten her with a knife, but use his strength against her - attempting to undress her. Through all her struggles, however, he resorted to finding a quick way do do what he wanted to do, so he used his knife to cut her jeans and slashed through her thighs, not caring how many times he cut them.
She quickly cast a momentary spell on him, to make him freeze up and become disarmed of the weapons he had such as knives and a whip. She proceeded wipe his memory of the situation and fled back to the wizarding world, where at the beginning of the year she worked to apply as a professor of Flight and Quidditch at Hogwarts; after the other professor managed to fly over the womping willow and get crushed - the old professor is still alive... but, has a fear of flying and is now working with a desk job somewhere.
Although she had become a victim of terrible misfortune, she tries her hardest not to live in that moment, and she tries to cover up her scars on her legs, which haven't healed due to lack of time and depth of the actual wounds.
