NICKNAMES. — 
 ✎ — Petra : Pretty much everyone calls her by this nickname (A/N: I will also refer to her by this name throughout the app)

BIRTHDAY — 08/17/1995 (23)

BIRTHPLACE — Philadelphia, Pennsylvania, USA
HOMETOWN — London, England

ETHNICITY — American/Chinese
BLOOD STATUS — Half-Blood
 
— COVER LETTER.

FACE CLAIM — Zhu Xudan (actress)

APPEARANCE — Petra has a height of 163cm (5'4") and weighs 50kg (110 lbs). She looks like her faceclaim. She naturally has long black but there are times when she dyed it mainly dark colours like dark brown/brunette that matches her dark born eyes. She would rather dye it then use a charm to change the colour of her hair because most of the time the charms don't last as long as permanent hair dye.

STYLE — Her style is simple, casual and comfy. One of her outfits is simply dark colour jeans with a plain shirt, a pair of sneakers and either a leather or bomber jacket. She also wears a dark colour pair of denim short shorts and either a t-shirt or casual blouse in summer. But since she's been wearing suits to work at her previous job it has kind of been incorporated into her own style.

— PERSONAL INFORMATION.

PERSONALITY
✎+Positive: Creative, Optimistic, Independent, Quirky
✎-Negative: Moody, Daydreamer, Shy, Cautious


At first, Petra Clark was a shy person and a real big loner because of what her neighbourhood in labelled her as a cursed child. Her trust issues started when she was verbally and emotionally bullied by the other children in her neighbourhood being called the cursed child. So that was how she became cautious of people. When she was invited to Ilvermorny School of Witchcraft and Wizardry where others who were like her attended she didn’t feel alone anymore. She was able to open up a bit while attending this school but she was still a shy person.

But after meeting and becoming friends with an extrovert at Gryffindor their traits kinda rubbed off on her and that is how she became known as a social introvert. (A/N: I know its such a paradox. But I just realised a few days ago that this is me. More about it here: 1, 2) She like doing social activities it’s just her social battery isn’t as big or as long-lasting as an extrovert. She gets most of her energy by being by herself and then herself in pretty much any social gathering and has fun while her energy last which isn’t that long. Even though she’s shy and cautious growing up she is now trying to break out of her shell and putting herself out there which has paid off when it came to networking while at her job as an admin assistant in the muggle world. She had to learn to upskill and build up her mental energy so she can interact with clients at the finance company. Even though she’s made many improvements she is still an introvert and is seen as kinda moody interact with people such as her work colleagues in an animated way, particularly when she is passionate about the subject matter. However, she’ll suddenly change, either disappearing or becoming withdrawn, usually because she’s had enough and needs to focus or recharge. She’s very creative, the type of person that would think of the most unique ways of solving problems. Even though it takes a while for her to get up in the morning and fully wake up for the day her optimism would take over and would look forward to what the new day would bring her.

 
 
 
— EDUCATION AND WORK EXPERIENCE.

BACKGROUND 
Petra Clark was born Philadelphia, Pennsylvania, USA on the 17th of August 1995. Her father is Henry Clark and her mother is Mei Clark and is the only child. They lived as a happy family. But people considered Petra odd since she had this odd “aura” around her. Since the neighbourhood she lived in was very spiritual she was an odd child. She was verbally and emotionally bullied by the other children in her neighbourhood and was labelled as the cursed child. Even though her parents explained to her as she grew up that if she is destined for magic then it would reveal itself when she’s about seven years old. But when it actually happened when she was seven she was so terrified because she felt like she was spiralling out of control. Plus all the insults and being labelled as the cursed child made her scared of the powers within her. She was already considered weird and now everyone would see her as a freak. Luckily when her magic showed itself she was with her parents she and her parents were able to calm her down and guide her through what was happening. Her mother died when she was 9 years old from cancer which broke her and she cried for days. When she was invited when she was 11 years old to Ilvermorny School of Witchcraft and Wizardry were others who were like her attended she didn’t feel alone anymore. In her first year, she became friends with a boy named Lucas in Herbology class when they realised that they both were struggling. So they both decided to work together and ended up getting pretty good marks for it. After that, they continued to hang out and become good friends. In the middle of her first year that her father married a woman named Amelia Davis. But when she found out that she had to move to England with her father since he got a new job at the Ministry of Magic she was quite upset. It was near the end of her second year. She ended up crying in Lucas’s arms. He’s her first real friend and she was gonna have to leave him. He spent time comforting her assuring that everything will be ok. Even though he will miss her both of them would be fine. They both promised to make sure they keep in touch and never forget each other.
 
Petra arrived at Hogwarts for her third year and was sorted into Gryffindor. She sat next to an energetic and bubbly girl named Piper Harrison. Piper was the first to talk to her and welcome her into Gryffindor. Piper showed her around Hogwarts and introduce her to new people. Which is how she met Piper’s brother Isaac who she also became good friends with. While studying ar Hogwarts Petra ended up fighting more with her stepmother to the point where she didn’t want to come home anymore during the holidays. She would either end up staying at Hogwarts or Piper would invite her to stay at the Harrison’s house for the holidays.
 
When she graduated from Hogwarts she decided that she wants to take a break from the wizarding world and try to live among the muggles. Which pissed her stepmother off since her stepmother doesn’t care about muggles. After moving out of her dad’s house she found a reasonable size apartment that wasn’t that expensive. She ended up at a university in London that offered vocational courses. She chose to study a Diploma of Business Administration which was a course with the duration of a year. She decided on a business course because, from her research, a qualification in business opens many doors to different industries. She chose this particular course because she had a choice of continuing into an undergraduate degree if she wanted to continue studying or head straight into the workforce after she completed the diploma. As she studied she was able to learn a lot about muggle technology and she started to build the fundamentals in basic office work. Reflecting on her life so far she’s been studying for most of her life she thought that maybe it’s time to start working. As she was studying there were a few industries that worked with the university to make her course happen. A tip from her lecturer was to start networking and creating connections with different professionals to succeed in business. Which is what Petra ended up doing starting with the industries that worked within her course. She tried her best in this course and once she graduated she was offered a role in a finance company that worked with the university. She was able to land this role because she established and maintain a connection with this company early on. When she started working she was placed in the marketing department as a junior administration assistant. After working for about a year she ‘junior’ was dropped from her job title. She worked their almost three years but her original manager was promoted to another department. The replacement turned out to be a B*TCH that would steal credit off other people and would micromanage the people. Her manager abused their power a lot and after almost 3 months Petra quit. She was surprised that she was able to make it to 3 months. She then became unemployed for almost a year and she was developing unemployment depression. She had almost used half of her savings to survive which wasn’t a good thing.

THE INITIATIVE
When she found out that the wizarding world had been outed due to the Incident it kind of just sent her in deep thought. “So what happens now? Surely they’re not going to hunt us down like the Salem witch trials. The people responsible for the Incident just can’t let everyone else live in peace, can they? They just had to plunge the planet into chaos? How is this going to work? Would the world accept this? How are the witches and wizards going to react? How would the muggles feel? ” she spent three days pondering these questions and countless others. until her brain hurt. She would catch herself spacing out a lot while thinking about this. After these thoughts going round and round in her head she decided that she’s not going anywhere just thinking about this stuff. So she continued job hunting since she’s been unemployed for close to a year and the unemployment depression is getting to her. One day when Petra was walking out of a government building near parliament after she screwed up another interview for a secretary job she saw a flyer for the Initiative. She picked it up and read through it and let out a sigh. “I think it’s time to head back into the wizarding world again,” she thought to herself as she put the flyer in her bag so she could write up her application later that night.

TRIVIA
- She really enjoys pop, house and edm music and when she started listening to this music and dancing around her apartment. She’s had 2 noise complaints from other tenants around her apartment. Which she has learned to tone down her music.
- She loves singing/belting Sun goes down by Robin Schulz, Young and Beautiful by Lana Del Ray, Chandelier and Move Your Body by Sia.
- Her Patronus is a dolphin.
- During her school years, she excelled in Defense Against the Dark and Potions.
- While working in the muggle world she attended self-defence classes. Her reasoning is that she 's a girl that lives along and she can't just rely on her wand. She might risk being exposed and/or creep people out/
- Before her mother passed away she gave Petra a necklace with jade phoenix pendant that has been in her family for generations. Legend has it that there is a phoenix spirit within and it will protect the wearer. But Petra believes that it's just a myth. She wears it all the time and never takes it off ever since her mother gave it to her.
- The other professors suggested that she could become a great Auror but she ended up leaving the Wizarding World behind after graduating.
- Her pet from school years al the way till now is a pet jellyfish named Squishy. She is able to let it move about in midair encased in a sphere of water that doesn't drip. But while living in her apartment it just hangs out in her fish tank. Jellyfish, water sphere.
 
 
 
— REFERENCES.

FAMILY — 
✎ Father / Henry Clark / 58 / Stern, Caring, Kind, Protective
Henry Clark loves daughter very much. Though he would not spoil her because he has seen the effect of that with young girls from other families. Even though he wants his daughter to have everything she needs but he also wants to teach her to value everything that they have. He is very passionate about the nation/kingdom that he serves, and his daughter admires. She sees her father as an inspiration. He only married Amelia Davis because he thinks that his daughter would need a mother growing up. There are just somethings that fathers can’t explain well daughters.
✎ Mother / Mei Clark / Deceased / Loving, Sweet, Kind, Compassionate
Her mother Mei Clark was a kind and compassionate woman. Even though she was a muggle she did know of magic from her older cousins who studied at Ilvermorny. She had met her husband through her cousins and their love story bloomed which is how they got married and how they had Petra. She loved her family dearly. She loved watching her daughter grow up and teach her to be open-minded. She would try not to miss any moments with her daughter. But when she fell gravely ill was so depressed because she couldn’t bear to part with her family. She begged her daughter to forgive her for leaving and told her not to cry before she passed away. Her death was a very great blow to her husband and daughter, though Petra eventually learned to move on but would always remember her.
✎ Step Mother / Amelia Clark (Previously Amelia Davis) / 47 / Overbearing, Naggy, Hear-but-not-listen, manipulative
Amelia is the type of person that cares about what others think. She tends to ignore what her stepdaughter is saying and forced her into learning the ‘proper qualities that lady should have’. She makes it seem like Petra is the root of all the problems that the family faces. She and her daughter clash so too much that Petra would try to avoid or have little contact with her mother as possible. It doesn’t help that she is also pureblood like Petra’s father so the fact that Petra is half-blood didn’t give her a good impression of her stepdaughter to start with. Although she was prejudice about Petra’s blood status she would grit her teeth and try to get along with her stepdaughter for her husband but it would never work since Petra can see through her fake smiles and her false concerns about her. Also when Petra decided to live among the muggles after graduating made her think that her stepdaughter is a lost cause.

Even though Petra got to know and be friends with others while at Hogwarts she sees Piper as being the closest. After graduating and Petra moving to a job in the muggle world, Piper would always try to help find a way to make Petra’s life a bit more exciting. When she found out that Petra that finally she is romantically interested in Piper’s first reaction was to squeal and be excited. She thought that it’s about time that happened. When her older brother started to try and mess that up Piper yelled at him and told him to back off and the siblings would fight about it.

— NOAH THOMPSON.

FACECLAIM — Skandar Keynes
BLOOD STATUS — Muggle Born

PERSONALITY  
He is the type of person that can be friends with anyone with his bright smile and personality. He is a cheerful and bubbly type of person and knows how to cheer people up. But when he is constantly compared to his older brother Jacob Thompson, he gets frustrated and angry that people can’t see and accept him for who he really is. Even though they are both muggle-born he’s brother was considered the golden child of the family. So while studying at Hogwarts and then working at the Ministry he would try and distance himself from his older brother. When he is around the person really like on the outside, he seems will his normal bubbly self but on the inside, he is kinda freaking about either about the way her acts how about what he says. He overthinks it and stresses over it. There are still people that call him a mudblood or insult him for being a muggle-born which still hurt but he just ignores it since he thinks that those people aren’t worth his time or energy. Unlike his brother who would end up blowing things out of proportions and end up fighting whoever insults him.

 
 
— LOVE STORY.

RELATIONSHIP — They haven't met yet

THE STORY
Noah Thompson was the Secretary to the Head of the Department of International Magical Cooperations at the Ministry of Magic. However, he was one of the two people sent over to work with the Initiative on behalf of his department. Since the Incident has impacted the Wizarding world on a global scale the higher-ups of his department demanded that staff from their department needed to work with the Initiative, even if it’s just in the background. He was partnered up with Petra since she was kind of monitoring global affairs on the muggle end while doing some paperwork. They started small talk to get to know each other as they worked. She found that he was younger than her by a year and that he recently moved from an underfunded department in the ministry. So he was just as new to all this as she was. After the first day working together was over Petra said, “Well it’s a pleasure meeting you.” “Likewise” was all he said as he smiled at her. To her, his smile was so warm and bright and she just stared at him. “See you Monday?” he told her which snapped her out of her daydream. “Err, yeah. See you Monday” she told him when he turned to walk away from her. Once he left she groaned because she felt like an idiot about the way she said bye to him.
 
As they worked together they both started to like each other. But one-time while on break they were in the café near the Ministry when Noah’s brother came in and spotted him. Noah was like “Oh no. He’s gonna steal Petra away like every other person that Noah has liked. Jacob started being the usual flirt that he is but Petra just wanted to knock his teeth out and to get away from this narcissistic jerk. She ended up saying something which got Jacob to instantly shut up and he kind of looked offended. She got up and grabbed Noah’s hand and dragged him out of the café since she didn’t want to be near that narcissistic jerk for another minute. “For the love of merlin. How is that your brother?” she asked Noah when they were well away from the café. “Wait, what? You don’t like him?” Noah asked her as he was still confused by her actions. She as in the middle of drinking water from the water bottle that she just bought when he asked that. She ended up spitting the water because of how ridiculous his question was. “God no. Why would you think that?” she felt like she wanted to gag a bit but she just held it in. He told her how his brother steals all the people he’s ever liked and how he’s only a shadow of Jacob. She tells him not to worry about Jacob and that she prefers him as he is. But then she says too much and starts blushing.
 
One time they were both in the archives looking for something when Petra slipped as she was climbing down the ladder used to grab things from the shelf. She closed her eyes expecting the impact of her body hitting the floor but it never came. So she slowly opened her eyes and saw that she was in Noah’s arms. “That would have been a nasty fall if I wasn’t here,” he said as he placed her down on her own two feet. “Thanks” was all she said as she bent down to the floor to pick up the books and papers that dropped. She felt her face heat up which Noah noticed and went back to reading the records that he was previously looking at. He smiled as he thought of how red her face was which he found adorable.
 
It was the same week as the incident in the archives when rebels started attacking. Everyone was finding a way to escape and the Ministry was in chaos. One of them sent a curse fly in Noah’s direction when Petra redirected it and attack the rebel which knocked them out. She then helped Noah to his feet and said “Now we’re even” which left him speechless. “Quit flirting” they both heard Isaac yell at them as other Aurors appeared. “But I was-” Petra tried to defend herself when Isaac cut her off “Hurry up and get out of here!” he ordered as he was fighting the rebels. Noah grabbed her hand and they both ran.(A/N: Feel free to add to their story so their relationship blooms)
 
 
 
— THE INTERVIEW.

"SO TELL ME A LITTLE ABOUT YOURSELF" — My name is Petra Clark and I’ve graduated Hogwarts a close to 4 years ago. I took a break from the wizarding world after graduating so I could learn more about muggle society. But now I’m back and ready to immerse myself in the wizarding world so that both worlds can work together.

"HOW DID YOU HEAR ABOUT THIS POSITION?"I saw this position on a flyer in a government building close to parliament in London. Reading over it I thought that maybe it’s time to head home to the wizarding world.

"WHAT WOULD YOU SAY IS YOUR BIGGEST WEAKNESS?" — My biggest weakness is that I would try to deal with problems by myself. I don’t ask for help because I grew up with the mindset that the problems I face are my own and I need to deal with it myself. But I am slowly learning that it’s ok to ask for help sometimes and I should take accept other’s help when they offer it.

"WHY DO YOU THINK YOU SHOULD GET THIS JOB?"I think I should get this job because of my previous experience in the muggle business industry and how I have a knowledge of how both muggle social media and the media of the magical world. Which I have gained while working in the marketing department at the finance company in the muggle world.

"WHAT DO YOU HOPE THIS INITIATIVE WILL ACCOMPLISH?"I hope that witches, wizards and muggles can work together and break down the barriers and differences between the two world. To ensure the calamities such as the Incident and even the two wizarding wars don’t happen again. That is what I hope this Initiative accomplishes.
 
 
 
— ANYTHING ELSE?

FAMOUS LAST WORDS — Sorry for the mess that is in my app. I just had too many ideas and notes that I just put them all in at the start and might have forgotten to delete some that don’t make sense with how the final character turned out. Also sorry for the horrible personality parts. I’ve never been good at writing personalities. Sorry for all the cliches in the love story section but I can't help it.

SCENE SUGGESTIONS — She is sent on a field assignment with three other people. All Petra wants to do is be discreet and just finish the job. But no, one of the idiots in her team just had to be impulsive and pull his wand out. She took a deep breath and rolled her eyes “Put your wand away before I knock your teeth out.”

PASSWORD — I'm just gonna put this here

So I'm not sure if you just haven't checked your PMs in a month? But just in case I wanted to remind you that Audrey had an additional question for Petra that I need answered sometime this week! ^^
