( AMORTENTIA ) : Sweets, Poppy flowers, Butter, Garlic
( RIDDIKULUS! ) : Medusa. Evangeline loved Greek mythology as a young girl, but she had never been a big fan of Medusa. The thought of a full hair of snakes gives her goosebumps, and she isn’t so keen on being turned into stone either.
( EXPECTO PATRONUM! ) : Her parents keep all the sweets in the house locked up in a shelf. However, one time her forgetful father mindlessly left it open, and Evangeline and her sister, Belladonna had a feast of everything sweet. They did get into trouble, but the fun they had as they bonded over sweets was something Evangeline can never forget. It was good to have such a memory to remind her of the happier time, especially since Belladonna has never been the same since she got sorted into Slytherin. 
( DEMENTOR'S KISS ) : Evangeline once saw her mother kill a man. At first, she thought it was a fever dream from when she was a child, because it seemed impossible that a sweet lady like her was capable of committing such a crime. But as she grows older, she is gradually accepting the fact that it might have occurred in real life, and her mother is not who she appears to be.
( MIRROR OF ERISED ) : In the mirror, Evangeline sees the child she once was, and the rest of her family together. She wants to go back to how it used to be. Everyone was happy and no one kept secrets from each other. She wants to become the naïve little girl again, because she knows she’ll eventually have to grow out of her childish ways, and admit to herself that some things in her life has always been a lie.
( PERSONALITY ) : Due to her upbringing, Evangeline grew up to be quirky, loud and outgoing; traits which her mother sometimes blames her father for. They share the same stubbornness and eccentricities. She is shifty and doesn't tend to stick to decisions she makes, evident in the odd hobbies she has that changes all the time. She has a good sense of humour, and there is nothing she loves more than a good prank. To her, they are just harmless practical jokes among friends, as she sees the best in everything, though it may come across as juvenile to some people. 

Other than that, Evangeline loves engaging in any sorts of conversation, as long as she gets a say in it. She finds it very easy to join in on conversations, regardless whether she is wanted or not. She loves to share her thoughts with other people and doesn't hesitate to voice her opinions, and this frequently makes people uncomfortable.

It is almost impossible for her to get annoyed at someone, but the same cannot be said for other people when it comes to her. She lacks restraint and habitually does not think before she speaks, most people do not appreciate her habit of being straightforward about everything. However, she means no harm to anyone, and is quick to forgive herself if someone was to insult her.

Evangeline is also sharp-witted and knowledgeable when it comes to fairy tales and myths. When she is not up to no good, you would find her reading, and that would be the only time she would sit still and keep quiet. She is observant and takes note of the littlest things in life, and would realize the slightest of change almost immediately. At her worst - if someone actually got on her nerves - Evangeline can be mean, sarcastic and rude. Despite that, she is a loyal friend, whose trust can be almost easily gained and loves to have a good time as much as the next person. 

( HAIR ) : Evangeline has brown hair that reaches the small of her back. She always keeps it in a bun, braid or ponytail. She hates wearing her hair down, because she hates it when it gets into her face. Since it is always tied up, her naturally straight hair had become curlier over the years.
( EYES ) : Evangeline’s hazel eyes are almond-shaped and her most distinguishing feature, usually said to be inherited from her mother, a veela. And just the latter, hers are this spinning whirlwind of dark, playful eyes. They look slightly green in sunlight.

( FACIAL STRUCTURE ) : Evangeline has pale skin and plump pink lips. Her face is free of any
blemishes or scars, the result of her taking extra care of it. Her nose is thin, and her cheekbones are high. Most would consider her to be pretty, her mother is a veela after all. Unfortunately, despite having her mother's beauty, Evangeline did not inherit her grace, and is as clumsy as her father.
( BODY STRUCTURE ) : Evangeline is willowy and delicate in build. Thus, she does not make a good fighter in terms of strength. She is taller than most girls her age. She stands at 5’10’’ tall and weighs 115 lbs. Despite her height, she can be swift, but also clumsy, tripping over her own feet every so often.
( ATTIRE ) : Evangeline has a weird sense of fashion. Her usual attire range from dresses to jeans and from T-shirts to potato sacks. She would wear anything that can be passed off as clothes, given that they were in bright colours. Evangeline never wear black as she thinks it will give bad luck. She has odd tastes when it comes to accessories, from wearing one too many bracelets to necklaces with charms made from the most random objects, often you will see her wearing mismatched earrings, and sometimes even a sombrero for no apparent reason.

( HISTORY ) : Evangeline’s mother, Aurelia was involved in one too many crimes in the past, and when she starts to feel remorse for her actions, she settled down to start a family to ease her conscience. Little is known about her, because she had always maintained the image of a guiltless woman, who was a good wife and loving mother to her children.

Growing up in the Gladius household, Evangeline and her siblings were always encouraged to share with one another, whether it’s their sentiments, opinions and ideas. Thus, she turned out to be quite the talkative one as she was used to talking to a crowd – her family was a rather large one.

Her father, Balthazar owns an antique shop, and he used to tell Evangeline the stories behind each item he possessed. That triggered her fascination for the history of pretty much everything, be them truth or legends. She spent most of her childhood in her father’s shop, digging around the gold mine of ancient things and conducting her own sort of researches.

The Gladius family did everything together, and everyone maintained a good relationship with each other. When Evangeline was younger, her daily activities were filled with family picnics, trips to the zoo and the like. After she started attending Hogwarts, her parents would still plan family vacations for when the children comes home for the school holidays. It was never awkward or competitive between the siblings despite being sorted into different houses.

However, as days pass by, it seemed as though they are slowly losing the one thing that kept them together – honesty. For starters, her sister, Belladonna, who was sorted into House Slytherin, had been getting more distant from the rest of the family; she doesn't look like she wanted to talk to them, let alone tell them about her life, and mainly keeps to herself. And when Evangeline grows older, and the past starts to catch up, she no longer finds it easy to believe her mother, as she had witnessed certain events by accident when she was a child. She might have been able to simply treat those memories as fever dreams, but now that she is more mature, she is gradually accepting the fact that some things could have been real.

Though Evangeline chooses not to put too much thought into these things. She keeps herself busy with school and pranks, and pretends that everything was still alright.

( ROLEPLAY EXAMPLE ) :

Princess Emeline had woken up that morning in a good mood, she recalled having the most pleasant dream. Although the details of the dream itself were forgotten, the contentment that it brought her still lingered in the air. And perhaps a bittersweet feeling as well, because she could not live in it just a bit longer.

But she was not one to complain, a sweet dream was rare in days like these. There were so much tension in the palace she felt the need to act like a proper princess at all times, to her surprise, fearing one wrong act of hers would affect her sister's claim to the throne.

The Marquess of Aneva had been open and rather loud about who he thought was the rightful heir to the throne of Goentar. He was watching the royal family like a hawk, patiently waiting for someone to make a mistake, one that can cost Princess Evelyn her throne. And Emeline herself was known to be the troublemaker.

Despite that, one pleasant dream was all it took to brighten up her day. Thus, she hummed happily while her servants prepared and dressed her for the day, choosing extra cheerful colors for her dress and flowers in her hair. Someone had taken the liberty of finding orchids to decorate her nicely-braided hair, which made her even happier, orchids were her favourite flowers. She then spent the rest of the day in a cheerful manner, going about her day with a spring in her step.

She was practicing with her powers in the garden, trying to form intricate shapes with the water from the fountain when she heard her eldest sister call out to her. The partially-formed swan in the air dispersed back into water in her surprise and fell back to the pond, splashing her dress.

"Indeed, sister." She answered sheepishly, as she did an awkward curtsey. "The roses seem to be in season." She mindlessly extended a hand to the fountain and perhaps there were vestiges of her power in the water, for when she gestured towards the fountain, a sphere of water rose from the fountain and rose above the two of them. The sphere of water then fell towards the ground, splashing the bottom of both their dresses. Emeline was horrified and made haste to apologize to her sister.
