Celeb Claim: Cintia dicker

General Appearance (at least two paragraphs): If one where to look at Lily, they would see she resembles her mother far more than her father. She has flaming red hair that reaches down to her elbows that she always wears down. Her skin is rather pale with a light dusting of freckles on her nose and cheeks. Her eyes are a light blue color, something that annoys her greatly. When it comes to height, she tends to be a tad on the shorter side, which gives her body a petit look.
While she doesn’t mind wearing her school uniform, she also likes to wear what is considered muggle clothing. Usually, the clothing consists of a nice shirt with jeans and flats or sneakers. While Lily isn’t one to dress up in skirts everyday, she does enjoy wearing nice clothes. Like most girls, Lily enjoys wearing some make-up and does her best to keep it natural looking. On normal days, the most you will ever see on her is blush, since she feels that her skin is washed out without it.

Overall Personality (Three paragraphs): Lily is many things. She can be kind and caring to most people, but anger her and she will hold it against you for some time to come. Like most the women in her family, Lily is very determined and refuses to be left behind in anything. She can be rather stubborn when it comes down to certain things, making it almost impossible to change her mind. One of the worst things you can do is try to pressure her into doing something, because then she won’t do it period.
Lily is also a very independent thinker. She won’t let her opinion of people be shaped by others, no matter who they are. Instead, she would rather get to know the person herself and decided from there. Because of this, Lily doesn’t care about such things as ‘who is what house’. If she wants to be friends with you, she will.
One thing that Lily has a hard time admitting to is that she is jealous of James and Albus. The reason why has nothing to do with the fact that they were older or got to do things that se couldn’t. No, the reason why was because of their looks. Both boys had something of their father in them, whether it be his messy hair or his startling emerald eyes. Lily on the other hand doesn’t and it tends to be a rather sore topic for her.
While she might not have her fathers physical traits, Lily defiantly has some of his personality. She has a habit of getting into trouble, though no where as bad as other members of her family, she does manage to grab a detention here and there for being out past curfew. She also is incredibly loyal to her friends and family, setting them above other things in her life.
One thing that Lily can’t stand is being protected, especially when it is coming from her older brothers. Granted, it is always nice to know that they have her back and while it is a comforting thought, most of the times it just annoys her. She doesn’t see why just because she is a girl and the youngest, she needs such protection. To her, it is like saying they don’t trust her to make the correct choices or that she can’t defend herself.
Family: Harry Potter – Father
Ginny Potter - Mother
James Potter- Brother
Albus Potter – Brother
And too many aunts and uncles to count.
History (Three paragraphs):
Lily Luna Potter was the last child to be born into the Potter family. Being the only girl, she grew up always being protected by her older brother. At first, she didn’t pay much attention to it, thinking in a way that was how it was supposed to be. However, she soon grew tired of it like most young girls in her situation. Despite this, it never lessened her love for her brothers, even if they could act immature over things that involved her.
When Lily realized that her brothers would get to go to Hogwarts before her, and that she would have to wait yet another school year, she felt jealous. It was bad enough that James was constantly telling her stories about the magical school, but now she would have to deal with both of them doing it. Mixed in with the jealousy was sadness, because she couldn’t go with them and as much as she hated thinking it, the situation made her slightly nervous. She went from having at least one brother to play with to having none and she had never felt so alone in all of her life.
The day that Lily turned eleven, she woke up early; the thought of her getting her acceptance letter was all that ran through her head. When if finally did come, there was no escape from her happiness. Finally she would be able to see the place that had been in every story she heard while growing up.

Rp sample: Lily was having one of those days. It was the kind of day that you wake up and look out your window and see how pretty everything is. One of those days, that after seeing this sight, you decide that there would be nothing better than to go outside and enjoy the beauty that was the world. Most importantly, it was one of those days that make you go “What in the world was I thinking?”
All of the above was what Lily had gone through. She had taken one look outside her dorm window and decided right then and there that it was the perfect day to go and walk around Hogsmeade. After dressing quickly in a pair of jeans and a green knitted sweater, Lily began her journey. Sure it was beautiful; it was also incredibly boring when one was by their lonesome.
Within her first hour, Lily had managed to visit all the shops in the small wizard village that held any interest. Along the way, she managed to by a few things, including a few dung bombs as well as a new quill. Now, her money bag considerable lighter than when she had first arrived, Lily was left with nothing to do. Well, that wasn’t completely true, there were a few things that she could do but most of them included spending money. That left with only one option, to visit the Shrieking Shack.
After making her way up the path that lead to the spooky place, Lily finally saw what was supposed to be the most haunted place in all of Britain. Upon looking at it, it wasn’t hard to see why it was considered to be a very scary spot. The building was old, so old that dust and grit covered all the windows making it hard to see inside. It was obvious that the building was void of any caretaker; the ugly colored paint that had managed to stay on over the years were dangerously close to completely flaking off.
In her childhood, Lily had heard many stories of the Shrieking Shack, first from her parents and then from James and later Albus. While her parents had made it sound like a normal place, her oldest brother made it sound like hell on earth. There was no place that she had feared more while growing up than the thing that stood tall in front of her. To be completely honest, Lily still felt a chill run down her spine when she thought of it. She had been sure as a little girl that Voldemort would come back to life and take her there. Sighing at her silliness, Lily leaned against the uneven wooden fence that surrounding the building, her head resting on her arms. It was stupid to have such fears when it was all in the past.
OCC: If you need me to fix anything, I will be more than happy to do so.
