Little Miss Brooks ʕु•̫͡•ʔु
So I been playing the character of Lucy Brooks for a very long time, in fact almost every roleplay sinces that I been to over the years was under the username Lucy Brooks. The name Lucy came from Narnia's Lucy Pevensie, I remember just finished reading that book when I joined the roleplaying world, at that time I absolutely love the name and decided to take it on. The last name is from the author Terry Brooks, although I haven't read it at that time, his brook 'Shannara' was on the shelf right next to my Narnia book so it was his last name that I adopted. After playing this character for years, I have alot of information of her which includes her family members and family history.
The History of the Brooks Family
Let us start with getting to know the Brooks family history, not alot is known about the family but one thing is for sure, they are a well to do halfblooded family. On the right you can see the Brooks family crest. The wings on crest symbolizes the a trait that all Brooks member has, a clear desire to rise above a challenge. The yellow gem is placed there because it is known sharper memory and concentration skills, which almost everyone would like to have.Violet is the color of purpose and the violet around the crest is meant to remind the family members of that everyone has a purpose in life. The motto of the Brooks family is "Fly High". The meaning is to rise as far as you can to achieve your dreams and also to remember that the we can always look up even when faced with trouble. Finally the blue in the crest represents youth, it is there to let us know that each and everyone of us has a childish side to us.
The Brooks Family Tree
Moving on to Lucy's family tree. Lucy's family is from England, they live among muggles in the Brooks Manor. Although most of them are from England, her uncle, Yamada Aoi is from Japan. He meet up with my aunt while she was on vacation there. Since both of them had stayed next door to each other for a month they somehow decided that they would get married. Her family is quite large, Her father has a little sister, Jessica and her mother has two older siblings, her oldest brother Damien and her twin sister Angela. All of them are already married and have kids of their on, so she have many cousins, but she has alot of siblings too. Two older brothers, Luke and James as well as two younger sisters Jenna and Emily. Just her mother and Aunt Angela, Jenna and Emily are also twins. Those two are almost inseparable, they are so identical that they can confuse most people.
One of the best thing about Lucy's family is that they are half-blooded, so she get to have the best of both worlds. Her Grandpa Winston is a muggle that her muggle-born grandma Scarlet met long ago. When Lucy's Uncle, Damien showed no sign of being a wizard my grandmother thought that my mother and Aunt Angela was also not going to be witches. She decided not to tell grandpa about her lineage, but surprisingly, Aunt Angela and her mother actually showed sign of belonging to the wizarding world when they were about 5 years old. Lucy's father side is also half-blooded, although she is not sure why, he runs some big muggle resorts. Apparently it was pass down through the lineage.

The Girl Named Lucy Brooks
Finally we come to my character, Lucy Angie Brooks. As I stated earlier, Lucy Brooks came to be because of my love for reading books, many of the things about her I came to know later on. The name Lucy means 'light'. With this I made her more into a girl who would be helpful and shine a light on people.[Yes I know it sounds cheesy] Next her family name which I later found on meant 'residing near a stream or brook', so I made it so that the Brooks manor was near a stream.Now let me tell you a little about Lucy.
Lucy is 5'7 tall and 47kg. She has long, silky brownish red hair, like her mother's and dark blue eyes just like her father's. Her hair is about a few inches longer then shoulder length. She was fair skinned but darkened due to playing outdoor games with her family. Her figure is slim and slight. She has a very friendly look, which may be because she likes to make friends. She is usually seen in a blouse and mini skirt when she is out in the company of muggles.
Her personality actually matches mine. Lucy is quite brave, she dares to do many things that other people won't [much like what I do, scares my mom though ヽ(゚Д゚)ノ]. She doesn't boast about herself often and likes to learn new thingsJust like me, [I try to learn as much as I can until at the end of the day I can't move a muscle _ノ乙(、ン、)_ ] . She makes friends easily but she is often seen alone, especially when she is out exploring The only differents between [Lucy's personality and mine, I'm the shy type (^_^;) ]. She is not very good at sports by doesn't mind it much because she prefers to read and use her brains more.
Like her siblings, Lucy went to a normal muggle elementary school, their parents wanted them to understand both side of their heritage so that they will not look down on either sides. Lucy didn't always knew she was magical, although her brothers were confirmed as wizards since young and her younger sisters were confirmed witches long time ago, she only found out when she was 7 years old, before that everyone thought that her Grandpa's genes was strong in her that i turn out without any magical abilities. One day when she was 7, one of her brothers had made her extremely angry that she actually caused something to happen, which cause the windows in the room to shatter. Actually when I was seven I smashed my brother's hand against the door for bullying me.

Conclusion
Well there you have it, the full details of my character, since I don't roleplay much in HOL I don't think that many people knew about this (⌒_⌒;). Hope I did not bored you to death though, if I did then allow me to say I'm sorry with this little guy <(_ _)> Lastly I would end this section with a little about my trademark signature. This was done when I was in secondary school and being bored in class, I drew a butterfly and then realize it looked abit like the letters 'L' and 'Y' so I tried to make a signature and this soon this was done, I useful thing to do in a boring class like Accountings. (We don't get to choose our classes until college/university).
