Cherubina Reino Korpiklaani
Birthday: september 15th(3rd year)
Blood Status: pureblood
Location of Residence:Gwynedd, WalesSchool: Hogwarts
House: Gryffindor or Slytherin please as I’m trying to collect houses
Supporting Group: Ministry
Appearance:
Three Characteristics You Think You Are: private, reserved, tidy, composed.
Three Characteristics Others Think You Are: Silent, observant, elegant, well behaved, unapproachable, unemotional.
Three Random Facts:
-Reino goes by his second name because he absolutely hates his first name, given by his grandmother Ludovica. She was obsessed with him the moment he was born, being her only grandchild with blonde hair. Ironically she never really cared much for her own sons, her only daughter was her obvious favorite. His grandmother calls him her ‘little cherub’ and likes to pinch his cheeks each time she sees him.
-Reino tends to have a scary ‘relaxed face’ which often scares people off. Which is unfortunate as he isn’t the type to start a conversation or approach someone. From a young age he is taught that children are to be seen not heard. So unless asked to speak, he will keep to himself.
-When he was young, Reino had trouble looking people in the eye. He could never quite explain why. His father thought this was rather impolite and made sure he raised his son with the iron fist to get it out. Reino did notice his parents were a lot more strict to him compared to his sisters. Which he thought was unfair but he wouldn’t dare to bring it up to them.
-He loves birds and collects feathers. His quill collection is rather large too and he brings a different one to each class. He also has a great grey owl named Elsa.
Aspirations: To make a friend this year, Go to the docoda tournament and find someone for the dance. It'll be a big challenge because he is not the type to approach someone, become a useful member of the family and society.
Opinion:
Clubs: I think it is a good way to meet people with similar interests. Unfortunately I still struggle with socializing so I often go, do my thing and leave. I hope to be more interactive this year but I cannot make any promises.
The knight bus: secretly I think it is kind of cool and fun but my parents won’t let me ride on it.
Blood purity: A tricky one. I haven't really formed my own opinion yet but I can see the importance of preserving magic and tradition. My family prides themselves in never having produced a squib. We make sure that our gene pool stays pure but has a lot of different genetics. We believe this is the key to remaining full of magic.
While I am allowed to make half-blood friends at school, my parents wouldn't like it if I brought them home. I probably should stay away from muggleborns to prevent things getting complicated in general. I don't have anything against them personally though. Of course I have to keep this to myself as my family likes to be seen as an open minded pureblood family. This makes finding friends really challenging.
Muggles: When asked I will often say I am unbothered by them. However, if I am being honest, they kind of frighten me. With the weapons of mass destruction they possess, I am not sure if keeping our societies is enough to keep us all safe.
The ministry of magic: Grandfather Hugh used to work for the British Ministry during the British/Italian war. My mother was working for the Italian Ministry at this time. Apparently there was a huge fight in the family which almost led to the divorce of my grandparents. Strangely, my grandfather died suddenly before the divorce could happen. I never got to meet him as I was not born yet. After the war my family moved to Whales because my mother wanted to keep an eye on the British ministry at the Department of international magical cooperation so they wouldn’t pull such a stunt again.
She doesn’t talk about the war going on which is very awkward but I can see she is not happy with it.

Roleplay Example:
Lewis blinked up in surprise. Did they just make progress in their assignment? For real? For some reason he had expected Victoria to act all smart and come up with something better. “Uh, sure… Aparacium it is then?” Alright, this could lead to something. “Sweet, that’s decided. Let’s take a little break and play some gobstones. I bet I can beat you,” he grinned. She might be more booksmart but he was unbeatable in gobstones and wrestling. Though he doubted he could get her to wrestle him. There was something he had to beat her in to show her he wasn’t just a loud mouth. Hard work deserved to be rewarded. So a well deserved break was ahead. This he personally decided. Two in one, if he said so.
The Hufflepuff started to take out his set, his most precious possession. Probably anything non-school related he owned that was worth something. While it wasn’t a remarkable set at all, to him it was very special.
