Who I Am
Name: Meleny Christina Aldridge
Age: appears 17 with a 31 year old mind.
Gender: female
Year: graduated as a human [forever 17]
Bloodline: pure blood
House/Position: Gryffindor [currently an auror]
Played By: Alexis Bledel
Appearance: Meleny's wardrobe consists largely of witches robes and cloaks for work. When she's at Hogwarts she wears her Gryffindor robes. She still wears the lion shaped necklace her mother gave her when she turned 11 and first started Hogwarts. She has many scars like this because she's related to one of the bad guys, her father Alexander Aldridge is a vampire who married a human, her mother Christina but he had found power on the dark side and he killed her.
She dosen't wear any makeup except for the occasional eyeshadow and blush to hide the scars on her face. She dosen't wear any other jewlery besides that necklace and has no earrings or any kind of piercings because she always thought it was tacky. She never does anything with her hair and rarely puts it up but still manages to stay well-groomed and cared for. Ever since her mother died and her father has proved himself as an unreliable parent she's learned how to take care of herself.
Meleny has long brown hair and blue eyes. She's 5'2 and weighs about 170 lbs. When she's not dressed for work or wearing the Hogwarts uniform she wears muggle clothing such as jeans and t-shirts. Casual wear is her favorite thing besides the Gryffindor robes. She's very athletic and plays Quidditch sometimes even though she has an immense fear of bludgers and has been told she can hit one out of the stadium.
Then again her athletic prowess could come from occasional scruffs with her father. It could also come from the fact that the Aldridge women according to her mother are just naturally athletic. She has high cheekbones to complement her athletic build.
Meleny looks exactly like her mother did when she was a Hogwarts students and those who knew her mother in school would often mistake her as her own mother. It pains her to remind them that her mother is dead even though they probably read about it in the daily prophet.
Personality: Meleny is a very sweet person and helpful. She's quite pleasant to be around once you get to know her. Other than her sweet side, she has a side of her that is quite serious, spanning from a recent event in her life.When she's in battle with someone, she's quite serious and will risk her life to protect humans which she happens to have a soft side for. Part of her serious side is that she's very overprotective of those she loves. She was overprotective of her mother after she married Alexander a few years or so after she was born. She was the only one who noticed the changes in him, his desire for power, etc. After her mother was killed, she vowed that if she ever fell in love it would be with the right guy.
Meleny is tempermental and shouldn't be crossed when she's in a bad mood. Otherwise she is very calm and her usual friendly self. She can be a bit overprotective which usually gets on people's nerves if they think they're capable of keeping themselves out of danger.
Meleny is emotional and sometimes isn't afraid to show she's scared, or in pain but when met with an enemy she'll try to decieve them and cover up her weaknesses which includes trying to hide the scar underneath her right eye which is the only one visible. The others are on her body elsewhere and can only be seen when she's either getting dressed or undressing. Usually she's in control of her emotions and knows when and when not to show them but when she's scared or under stress the chain binding her emotions snaps and she becomes a total wreck.
Meleny is considerate and helpful. She always knows the right thing to say in a bad situation and has always been thought of as a mother figure to the younger students. She protects them from danger. She's also intelligent. When she was a student at Hogwarts she'd help the students with their homework in subjects they were having trouble in.
The previous traits may seem like she's a HufflePuff but she is really Gryffindor. Besides being overprotective she's a martyr she values everyone else's lives over her own and would risk it if need be. When lives are at stake she dosen't care about getting in trouble because that's what being a Gryffindor is all about.

History:Meleny's parents Alexander and Christina met at Hogwarts during the time of the marauders. Her mother was a HufflePuff and her father a Slytherin. Her father was a risk taker and was often in the wrong place at the wrong time. He was turned into a vampire at age 39 after Jezebel and Meleny were born. He wasn't a cruel heartless bastard until after he joined Voldemort. He had fallen in love with Christina and vowed never to hurt her before he became corrupted by evil. But when Voldemort became powerful one of his death eaters sought him out and convinced him to join Voldemort. Her father was powerful and after he became a death eater, a force to be reckoned with. He broke his promise to Christina and tried to attack her one night. Her father could not control his blood lust and didn't even bother to. Anyone he came across either ended up dead, turned or unconscious. Meleny trained herself to drink copiously but was so disgusted with her father's rampage across Hogwarts in later years that she just started to supress the hunger for a while. She does not attempt to drink again until she is near death. In the event that it becomes unmanagable she had always planned to distance herself from the students deep in the forbidden forest.
When Christina found out she was pregnant the doctor told her she was carrying twins. Along with Meleny inside the womb was a darker baby that would grow up to be the second person to make Meleny's life miserable. This was her twin sister Jezebel and she was the evil twin that you hear so much about in birth stories. Her father had named her and after Jezebel was born Meleny's life became a living hell. The last thing she needed in her life was someone else to degrade and put her down as if her father hadn't already done enough of that. The two of them were constantly at each other's throats and she enjoyed physchologically and physically abusing Meleny. When they attended Hogwarts her sister was sorted into Slytherin and that only esclated their sibling rivarly to a higher level. They competed against each other during Quidditch matches and she never missed a chance to call her a blood traitor.
Meleny and Jezebel were born to Alexander and Christina Aldridge on April 5th. When Meleny was born she had no idea how chaotic her life would be. Her father and sister joined the dark side and he killed her mother during the battle of Hogwarts prompting her to dedicate her life to protecting others from the dark side and avenging her mother's death in the process. Her sister had helped complete the job by subjecting her mother to a few hits of the cruciatus curse before her father uttered the killing curse. A few days before the battle Jezebel had also been transformed into a vampire by a boy she was dating. While this was going on Meleny was fighting another death eater but she stopped her current duel to help her mother. Distress has always been like an alarm clock for Meleny and she cannot stand hearing anyone scream in pain. When she entered a duel with her two family members her sister tortured her a little and her father had turned her. She was nearly killed because she had a broken leg, many scars, and a horrible pain in her ribs. She was nursed back to health by the older brother of one of her fellow Hogwarts students. His name was Carlow McKenna and his sister Cadence was a HufflePuff seventh year. She ended up being sent to st mungos hospital in order to be nursed back to health since the battle took place at the end of her term as a seventh year Hogwarts student.
Meleny has been something of an outcast for most of her life because she had a human mother and a vampire father which made her weak in the eyes of her enemies. Meleny is actually strong and determined and dosen't kill unless forced to. She is rarely violent and had managed to kill a bunch of random death eaters during the battle at Hogwarts. Her status as outcast was a lot more pronounced when she entered Hogwarts because all the Slytherins seemed to know she was a blood traitor.
When Meleny got her letter from Hogwarts on her 11th birthday. Her mother was ecstatic and took her to diagon alley to get her things but not until her father had a word with her about the right kind of wizard folk to mingle with. All her life she had been indoctrinated with pureblood superiority and to stay clear of muggle-borns and blood-traitors. Meleny ignored his lecture and left with her mother. As Meleny's hogwarts education progressed and Voldemort became more powerful, her father became suspicious when he found letters Meleny had been writing home to her mother discussing her life at Hogwarts. She had mentioned standing up for the underdog and intervening when a Slytherin called a muggle-born a mudblood and taking a course called muggle studies. It later dawned on her father that his own daughter was a blood traitor and in her fourth year during the triwizard tournament when the third task was going on he lured her away from the stands and took her into the forbidden forest where he beat her for selling out the purebloods and putting them to shame for being a muggle lover. That was where she got her first scar. She came out limping, bleeding all over and in pretty bad shape with a scar underneath her right eye. That was the second time she had to be nursed back to health by Madam Pomfrey. The first was the Quidditch incident in her third year.
Jezebel had heard about the letters when they returned home that summer and beat her very badly. Her father was still steaming so he helped and a few unforgivable curses were used on his part. Meleny returned for her fifth year with a black eye, bloodied, and a horrible pain in her ribs. She was sore for many weeks because she had been under the cruciatus curse too long. Madam Pomfrey nursed her back to health the minute she arrived at school so she didn't see the sorting ceremony that year. When she was well enough to return to the common room and start going to lessons she heard about Umbridge and her plans for Hogwarts. That year Meleny joined the DA and her sister joined the Inquisitorial Squad. Her sister as well as her father had always been the type to let power go to their heads so Jezebel had gone a little overboard in the position but was quite ecstatic to be putting Meleny and her friends in their places as well as attempting to shut down Dumbledore's Army.
Meleny's Hogwarts experience was both traumatic and liberating. She felt as if her entire education was a rite of passage and was glad to be prepared for the wizarding world when she completed her seventh year. Her life seemed to have finally reached the subdued point she had been waiting for ever since her fourth year. She had secretly been wishing for a normal life since she was 11 but was too young to understand Voldemort's effect on the wizarding world. Her life had reached that point of calm when all the death eaters including her sister and father were locked away in azkaban. However, her uneasiness returned when there was an azkaban break out and rumors of a new dark lord were brewing. By this time she was an auror even though she had the appearance of a 17 year old her mind was older and after the aurors had gone out to investiagate the rumors a new dark lord she returned to Hogwarts to give the school added protection. She still honors her duties as an auror though.
By this time she was working at the ministry as an auror. She went out with the rest of the aurors to investigate the rumors. She suddenly became worried about the well being of the new generation of Hogwarts students. They would need more protection other than Harry Potter. Even though he was a great wizard that wasn't enough for her. After she saw the new dark lord she went home to pack her bags for Hogwarts and she brewed polyjuice potion to change back into her 17 year old self to watch over the students when she's not being an auror.
