Who I Am
Name: Pandora Amber Chambers
Age: 16
Gender: female
Year: sixth
Bloodline: pureblood
House/Position: Ravenclaw
Played By: stuckwithpins @ deviant art
Appearance: Panda stands at five feet five inches tall. Her hair is mix-matched in length going anywhere from mid-face to mid-shoulder blade. The majority of her hair is a mixture of dark brown and black but there is a chunk of her bangs that is blonde. Her eyes are a pale golden hazel and she has a fair complexion with minimal blemishes. Pandora likes her eye-liner and can't be seen without it it seems, she has everything proof makeup claiming that there would be hell to pay if anyone saw her true face. Her lips are a little thinner than she would like them so she outlines them in slightly darker than natural color to give them a little bit of a fuller look. Although she isn't the most athletic individual out there, she has a fit figure even if she wouldn't mind getting some abs. Her nails are kept somewhat short although they are shined and shaped to 'look pretty'.
When out of uniform, she tends to wear things to expose her neck and shoulders as well as the upper part of her chest. Mind you, she doesn't bare much her sweater-puppets no matter how perky they may be. Though she wears loose hanging outers such as shawls and vests, under it she wears form fitting shirts such as knit-tops in the winter and tank tops in the summer. The color coding of her clothing really depends on her mood. If she is feeling calm when she wakes up, she tends to stick with blacks, violets, and darker blues. If she is hyper she will wear eye-catching colors mixed in with the black such as bright greens, reds, oranges, bright blues, and yellows. She always has pockets or a pouch she carries around with her seeing how she likes to keep Ritz on her person at all times as well as treats for the glider.
Personality: Panda doesn't really hate anyone. Really. They could be the darkest vile individuals and she won't hate them. Sure, she will avoid some people to an extent but to go as far as being constantly angry at them, it is almost an impossibility. The thing is, her mood tends to more or less reset after she's slept weather it has been a full sleep or a nap. Yes, she wakes either calm or hyper or a little of something in between, but it is never in a bad mood. At lowest, a neutral. Pandora does not have a certain group that she hangs out with or really categorizes herself into... well, besides houses.... but I'm talking about the whole popularity scale thing. She just kind of cruises through them all at one point or another without trying.
Because of her neutral attraction towards both good and bad, she feels like somewhat of an outcast when it comes to her family and the family line. All of the rest of the Chambers are strictly good. They have no tolerance for darker people or things. If one were to meet any one of the other Chambers, they might not believe that Pandora is one of the family. It seems like the only thing she has in common with the other Chambers is her habit of observing people and making mental notes.
One of the only things that seems to get her actually riled up in almost an instant is her glider being tampered with or placed in harms way. Panda is very attached to her pet and has a strong bond with her. This doesn't mean that she doesn't adore other animals as well, the glider just happens to take the number one spot in her heart. Pandora loves animals, sometimes getting along with them more than with people. Of course, she doesn't tend to admit that. It is one of those things that she doesn't bring up or talk about much. Just like she doesn't really talk much about her family line as a common conversation piece.
She still hasn't displayed any signs of how she feels about the recent death of her family. The most she has shown so far is the change in dress style from where she used to wear pastells all the time to the colors she wears now which closely resemble how her sister used to dress. Pandora is never found mourning or angry or even too worried. Deep inside though, there is a determination brewing.
She is quick to smile and slow to blush and when she meets someone she acts like she's known them for a while already rather than having the initial shyness or awkwardness. It isn't in an overly bubbly way. In fact, some kind of find it creepy even if she doesn't mean to be. There is also what seems like a look of familiarity in her eyes, her subconsciously trying to get people comfortable with her to where they believe they might have seen her someplace before or some time before.

Pet: A Sugarglider by the name of Ritz
History:
In Greek mythology, there is a tale of Pandora's Box... Well, several as there are different versions. What they all had in common was that a woman was created and was named Pandora. She was given several gifts. The two that were the main topic; curiosity given to her by all the Gods and a sealed pot that she was told never to open. Due to the firstly mentioned gift, she ended up opening the box and unleashed all the evils, ills, burdons, and darkness into the world and onto mankind. A bit dramatic in Pandora Chabers' opinion actually seeing how it didn't really go that way. In fact, Pandora's ancestor wasn't the first mortal woman. Nothing near that. The situation actually happened only about a year before the stories spread.
The true history of that was way back then, there was a somewhat too curious witch by the name of Pandora. A witch and a thief. She had heard about a powerful witch that had, in an attempt to make the world a better place, had locked away dark magicks and the evil entities he had managed to contain inside of a magicked pot that looked to be made of clay... and she hadn't been able to resist the temptation of seeing for herself. She had found the hiding place of the pot after figuring out a way to get close to Epimeth. Then, one day when he was distracted with a self-made project of his, she opened the pot. Epimeth was of course enranged when he found out. He couldn't do any bodily harm personally like he sure as hell wanted to.. But he did the second best thing. He placed a curse on her and all that would come from her.
The curse placed on her and her bloodline was that until all of the dark magicks and evil entities were locked back away into the pot, they would all meet voiolent horrible unhappy ends. Ends that did not come swiftly but sometimes would drag on for days weeks or months. This is one of the reasons why the Chambers line happens to have large families through the generations. There is a high mortality rate so having more than two children survive to adulthood per family isn't common at all.
This, is why the Chambers tend to be so uptight and why they have little to no tolerance for evil or dark things or people. Each generation taught their childred from early on about the family past and about what needs to be done to ensure the family's future. This is why when Pandora didn't display the same amount of hatred towards evil and darkness, there was a great amount of concern. They did the most that they could do to get her to be shaped and molded like the rest of them but there was something different about her. She most certainly wasn't anything like her older sister.
Schooling. Well, Pandora started schooling four years after her older sister Claire at the Beauxbatons Academy. It was in her fifth year that after a very violent long drawn death of her older sister, Pandora's parents were too emotionally hurt to be able to stand remaining in the same area. There were too many memories in the house, too many memories all around actually. That combined with the way Pandora had started to dress like Claire was too much for them so they uprooted that branch of the family and relocated. This, was how Pandora ended up being transferred to Hogwarts.
