;; appearance
general;; Evangeline Logan has always been the girl no one notices or just not pays much attention to. It is hard to be forgotten in a small town like Forks but not everyone is prominent in a crowd. She stands at 5 ft 9 inches, making her a bit taller than your average girl, and her body is on the scrawny side. Due to the lack of exercise, she has very thin arms and legs. Her skin is pale but not excessively so. She has one characteristic birthmark on the left side of her face, below the eye. Like any teenage girl, she has occasional skin problems. Her eyes are a hazel color, and like her light brown hair, rather plain. Usually, her eyes are very inexpressive but sometimes there is a hint of melancholy. When she was younger, Eva tried to color her hair blond but thididn'tt work out rather well, and since then she hasn't touched any hair color. Her hair has always been long and loose, with occasional bangs, and to save the money, she cuts it herself.
If one was to describe Eva's appearance with a word, it would probably be; ordinary. She has no killer body nor amazing features to make people turn their heads but she wouldn't have it any other way. Staring makes her uncomfortable, compliments likewise though she hasn't received many, and she thinks that the whole picture of beauty is overrated. She supports natural appearance and never wears any makeup no matter what the occasion is. Therefore her morning routine is very simple, and only consists in showering, brushing teeth and hair. Her feelings about clothes and fashion are likewise laid back, and almost everything she owns is secondhand. The colors of her wardrobe are black, gray, brown and white. Everything she owns is baggy as she prefers comfort over style. Her fashion sense is defiantly nothing to brag about seeing that she throws anything clean on in the morning. The shocking truth is that she only owns two pairs of shoes and couldn't care less.
favorite;; When it comes to looks, Eva has never been the sort of person to judge others nor herself. She is simply grateful for her straight teeth and functioning body.
hate;; Although her attitude to wards looks is very relaxed, she has never been quite satisfied with the fact that her hair gets easily dry and electric. Forks weather is no help to this problem.
heritage;; American
ethnicity;; Caucasian, as far as she knows
;; personality
general;;
Quiet
Eva has always been the quiet girl, whether it is among family, friends or in public. She often finds that she doesn't have anything interesting to say or add, and therefore keeps quiet instead of filling the air with meaningless chattering. It is a pain to talk to her on the phone as she only answers with 'yes', 'no' or 'maybe'. When she went to school, she was never the person to raise her hand to answer a question, even if she would know the answer. Because of this very restrained talk few people can claim to recognize her voice.
Outsider
Eva has always felt very different from everyone else. She has never quite been able to explain it but it is like she is a hare among rabbits; same species but still so very dissimilar. It is a strange thing how she doesn't resemble her siblings or parents in looks or personality.. She still hasn’t figured out why it is she can't interact so well with others, if it's in her heritage or an odd part of her personality, but whatever it is, she has come to terms with it. Sometimes she merely thinks that she was born into the wrong century.
Dreamy
If she could have it her own way, she would never lift her eyes from a book, but her parents doesn’t think that it is healthy to read all day. Even though reading is considered a good thing, Eva has suffered from it by now having to wear reading classes, and becoming very antisocial. She greatly prefers the company of a book rather than another human being. She believes that she has never met a person worth a long conversation but since she has lived in Forks all her life, she has not met many people.. Being into the universes of the books she reads, she thinks of Forks as a very gray and dull community. The color and excitement of a tale is not to be found anywhere else than in fiction. So she sits and dreams of the adventures her favorite characters live in.
Patient
Having lived in a house with three younger siblings, Eva has mastered the art of endless patience. Whenever her parents needs help with housekeeping or babysitting, she steps in to help. If her sisters need to talk, she will sit down and listen for whatever time it takes.
Clueless
Most people have a goal with their lives but Eva is rather clueless about hers. After high school she tried college but this diden't suit her, and six months later she returned to Forks. She has no concerns about the future but rather lives in the presence and deals with the problems there.
Careful
Eva does not trust other people easily. She is always careful in her approach to others, which could be mistaken for shyness. Because of her reserved demeanor she has very few friends and only truly depends on her family.. Romance and love has never really been significant as she has not missed a boyfriend. If anyone should have showed interest in her, she would not notice. Although having been kissed once, she has never gone further than this.

;; origins
general;;
Evangeline Mary Logan was born December 22nd, nineteen years ago, into the Logan family in Forks, Washington. The Logans were young when they had their first baby, only 23 and 20 years old, but even though it was an accident, they were very happy and married a year later. Both had been living in Forks all their lives and had no intentions of moving away. They figured that a small and close community like Forks would be the best place to raise a child.
Eva's time as an only child soon ended as another girl was born two years later. Two years went by again before a baby boy was welcomed into the family.. Her childhood passed rather normally, except from the fact that she would rather sit inside and read than be outside playing. Her parents encouraged her to do sports or get a hobby so at the age of seven she began taking piano lessons. This she greatly enjoyed, and when she turned nine, she got a piano for her birthday. Although fairly old, she treasured this more than any other of her belongings.
The Logans first born child turned out to be the ideal teenage daughter. They had expected her calm nature to falter once puberty came but instead she became more introvert. This did cause a great deal of worry at first but after talking to her teachers, they were reassured that it was just a phase. Later it turned out to be more but Eva always did her homework, stuck to the rules and took care of her siblings, so there was nothing to complain about. Her parents could only accept Evangeline as they were busy with three other children, the youngest born at Eva's 12th birthday.
After completing high school it was only natural for Eva to go to college. She was both worried and excited about leaving Forks for the first time even though the college only lied in a neighbor state. After only six months, she dropped out of college and returned home with the explanation 'that it was just not her'. The few friends she had, had in Forks were all gone for college, and her parents spend a long time trying to convince her to start studying again. But Eva stayed. She began working part-time in Forks library, and helping more out at home.. Now she is nineteen with no certain plans for the future..

(Part of a HP post)
Hogwarts was not a safe place anymore, at least not for those who were impure. This was not the first time that students found themselves in danger, in what was supposed to be the safest place in Britain, but this was the first time that the school was ruled by someone who carried the dark mark. Ever since Albus Dumbledore had become headmaster, many bad things had happend at Hogwarts. Actually, mysterious things had occurred not only when he was headmaster but also when he was a teacher. It had only got worse when the famous Harry Potter started school. He was a magnet to danger and attention. But why was he oh so famous when he had done nothing but survive? He had just been a weak little baby who turned out to be very lucky. Luck. That was it; luck. He could have died.. Rather, he should have died.. If he had died so many things would have been different.. better.. But he still lived, avoiding death sentence after death sentence.
At least he wasn't praised anymore. There was no overly forgiving headmaster left to hold his hand over Potter, in fact, that same headmaster was dead. Dead and gone as Harry Potter soon would be. He had left Hogwarts, but he couldn't hide forever. Someone would find him someday and if the right person did.. well.. there would be no boy-who-lived. Theodore looked forward to this day with infinite anticipation. Perhaps his feelings wouldn't have been so strong if he hadn't met Harry Potter but as it was, the boy had harmed Theodore's family. There would however be many consequences if the invincible boy finally fell. Theodore could surely not graduate from Hogwarts and choose a profession of his own liking. It would only be a matter of time before he had to face his destiny but how he did it was his own choice. He could run for the rest of his life or step up and take his place among the Dark Lord's servants. He would be part of the new generation of Death Eaters along with Malfoy, Crabbe and Goyle.
Each step was a step to wards his unavoidable fate. His legs felt heavy but his back was straight. One half of him questioned whether this was the right path to choose but the other settled that this was what he was meant for. Some surnames belonged certain places, and Nott only fitted into one category. There was no reason for him to be so torn about it since he couldn't just reject the past of his family nor his blood.. Every breath was sharp and rapid but no matter how much air he sucked it never felt like enough. Theodore had been thinking about his decision for many days now, every rock had been turned, every argument thought, and in the end he just concluded what he had known all along; that this was something he had to do. No one knew about this inner struggle but he doubted that anyone would have dared to talk him out of it anyways. His mind was set on completing it, and the matter was so related to their house that no Slytherin would have the guts to question the topic.
