How you doin' my name is: Loreali McCurry (lor-eal-ee)
My first breath happened on: March 28th 2048
Which makes me: 23 years young
My blood is: half and half
I am obviously a: female
My hometown is: Cape Town, South Africa
Currently I live in: London, England
I graduated from: South Cape Academy
My Job is: Layout Editor

tl;dr version: I look like crazy Claire and her squirrel baby Emilie De Ravin
My hair is: blonde
My eyes are: blue
This is how tall I am: 5'3"
I weigh: as much as I do. I would prefer not to tell you.
Here's some other stuff: Although she has a small frame, Loreali is not weak. Her small frame is due to her participation in ballet since the age of four. Still trying to practice it daily in London is a bit of a problem since she can't seem to find an instructor that will stick with her like the ones in Cape Town did. Sometimes she develops a tan during the summer months but don't expect it to happen too often. Too much sun makes her look like a lobster.

Me me me me: Loreali is an optimist and nothing you say will change her mind about that. When she attended South Cape Academy her friends often referred to her as a "stubborn sweetheart" since Loreali always shot down a pessimistic viewpoint with her own optimistic views and nothing anyone said could ever change her viewpoint. Often a blabbermouth, Loreali often got into major trouble in her classes for talking so much. Her professors eventually grew tired of sending her to detention after detention for talking in class so they gave her extra homework to prove that she was actually paying attention while talking so much. Loreali will never turn down any challenge that comes her way no matter how gross or insane the challenge may be.

She has a weakness for putting herself into situations where she has to prove herself to be the best of the best. If she gets second best in anything, it hurts her self-esteem greatly. Her competitive nature often gets her into some very interesting situations. She lives for those interesting situations where her abilities are truly put to the test. Loreali does not believe in luck because she was taught from birth that if you work hard and be kind, amazing things will happen.

If anything she does puts you off, she will immediately shower you with apologies until you either forgive her or just ignore her completely. Beware, though, if you do choose to ignore her she will send you gift baskets of your favorite things until you go up to her and forgive her. Told you she was stubborn. She is a very laid back individual when she's not being provoked into being competitive.

When it comes to members of the opposite gender, Loreali has encountered and dated a fair many in her 23 year lifespan. She is not actively seeking out that mister perfect right now so don't even try it. However if you're a nice guy she may just give you a look and decide to get to know you. Just don't come off extremely arrogant and cocky because the last thing Loreali needs in her life is a male who would constantly try to prove her to be inferior to him.

History: Loreali was born in Cape Town, South Africa to Fallon McCurry, a Muggle Entrepreneur who owned a company that sold boats and Rachael Shepherd, a witch who was the head of the Department Of Mysteries at the South African Authority, the equivalent to the Ministry Of Magic. She was raised in the area of Bloubergstrand which provided her with the environment she needed in order to get into many sports. She got into surfing thanks to her father who gave her lessons at the age of four. It was also at the age she discovered her other big passion, ballet. She has not dropped either of these things since the age of four.

When she was old enough, Loreali attended South Cape Academy where she excelled in Transfiguration and Charms and was terrible in Astronomy and Divination. She picked up Quidditch at her school but she rarely chose to play for her school because she enjoyed taking pictures at the games over playing the game itself. After she graduated she picked up her passion for Photography again and decided to do some traveling with money she had saved from working various odd jobs over summers at home. Once she interned for the South African Times, she wanted to find a newspaper away from home to work at. It just so happened that the Daily Prophet in England was hiring so once Loreali got the blessing from her family to go, she moved to England and is now working as a Layout Editor. She still calls her parents every week to check in with them and she is fairly homesick for The Cape.
