In every adorable sophomore bird dorm, there must be one awful, awful person.
This is Lyss, and I have taken it upon myself to write this person, and I'm sorry.

So hey you guys, meet

Jade is a 16 year old sophomore Azurcrest, and a pureblood. She comes from like, everywhere. That's part of the problem. Her mother is a Guatemalan diplomat, and her father is a Canadian international trade lawyer based out of Vancouver, so she lives (kind of) in both those places.

Her classes include: Charms, Herbology, Hermeticism, Transfiguration, Defense Against the Dark Arts, Aesthetic Magic, Astronomy. She isn't as smart as all that would imply, but works hard and gets solid Bs, at least. She's in Drama (she loves it,) and Duelling/Fencing (for the hexes, because those are handy,) and Event Committee (because it seemed like a good idea.)

Jade grew up having to travel the world with her parents for their stupid jobs. She hated it very much, and was not able to ever really adapt to one place enough to really grow roots there. Gooseberry has been that for her so far.

She attended what felt like countless international magic-student-schools and never made any friends. At first she learned to live with that. But then in middle school. she learned that she had claws. Basically. Jade became rude, eager to express her dominance, fake to fit in, honestly kind of deeply unpleasant. It was her version of being Adaptable, but she needed a better one. Sadly, it all paid off. When she moved schools, she now found that she had burned bridges, and they usually didn't want her back. She got in a lot of very real discipline issues. Her last antic was breaking someone's leg. Whoops.

Her parents, in puzzling out what the hell to do with her, made her participate in some extracurricular activities. She chose drama, and she loves it very much. Actually, she's a very good actress. Her many (many) faces come out, when she's not caught up in the backstage dramatics of it all. That's easy for her to do sometimes.

At Gooseberry, Jade's more muted. Her survival instincts are still turned up, but they're slowly dying, and she's learned it's more important to get along with people than be better than them all the time. However, her old habits die hard, and she is still by no means above fake personas and mean-girling to get what she wants.

LOOKING FOR: Oh god, I don't know. People who put up with her? I'm REALLY EXCITED for adorable sophomore antics, and I'm sorry for ruining this class. Mean Girls can she play with you? Acting kids, can she play with you?

LARP kids, her dream is to play with you, but tarninshing her reputation like that seems really unwise. :(

OKAY so here is her app for all the stuff I missed. I tried not to tl;dr. I failed.

YAY, ROOMIES! Frank will be bubbly and friendly and won't draw all over her section of the cabin without asking several times. Or just encouraging Jade to get in on the cabin art. Because their room is a god damn masterpiece.

Bash is ... Bash. Whatever the hell you want with him, he's good for.

And Roxie understands the whole 'I've been to 500 schools and somehow managed to maintain zero friends from them' experience. With marginally less violence, sure. But with the same end result of not talking to anyone.

ugh Frankie is just so cuuute.
Jade immediately distrusts super cute/nice people on principle but Frankie...may be well on her way to proving herself. She has begrudgingly allowed her to draw on her walls. To fit in. Fine.

Bash is a mystery to her and she doesn't understand but she might be rude at him sometimes because that sounds kiiind of fun.

Thank you for understanding, Roxie :(
