Full Name: Apollonia Elaine Hyalla Leandros Age: 16 Date of birth: 19th August, 2010 Birthplace: Ramsey, Isle of Man Current home: Ramsey, Isle of Man Blood Status: Half-Blood Sexual Alignment: Bisexual Wand type: 9 and a half inches, Blackthorn Wood with Dragon Heartstring Core
Hair colour and style: Her beautiful ginger hair is an inheritance of a sort from her great-grandmother as apart from the woman, no-one else closer to Apollonia has such hair. The rest of her family either have dark-blond hair or are brown-haired. A fairly picky person when it comes to how her hair is styled, Apollonia tends to try out all sorts of styles and more often than not one will see her wearing a different hairstyle a day unless she decides to stick with one for whatever reason. Eye colour: Very light brown Height: 5' 4" Body type: Slim and quite toned; more of an athletic type of body type that she gained through training and just keeping to her diet. Dress sense: Unlike with her hair, Apollonia isn't really picky about what sort of clothes she wears - she has the tendency to throw on whatever on hand really though she does make sure that it actually matches before she even steps a foot out of her room or the bathroom. Though she's not picky with what she wears, Apollonia has a tendency to sometimes wear quite risque clothing that often lead to her either getting grounded by her parents or put into detention by the professors. Birthmarks: N/A Tattoos: She currently doesn't have one but she made a promise to herself that upon her turning eighteen she would get one - a sort of tribute to her siblings for taking care of her all this time. Scars: N/A Piercings: Her ears and belly button.
Likes: - History; at first this has been something that she just read because she wanted to know of her family history but over time she started getting into History so much, and not just of her family, that she currently has a quite large collection of History tomes at home that she had read from back to front a few times and never tires of reading them again. - Shopping; it's something that actually her sister exploited in her by dragging her along to her own shopping trips. - Her siblings; she looks up to her siblings and loves them with all of her heart, she would literally do anything for them though sometimes she feels as if they are much too protective of her. - Art; Apollonia knows how to appreciate fine art though she has no hand for drawing it herself, she knows a masterpiece when she sees one. - Swords; with her family history it was inevitable that Apollonia would grow a fascination with weapons like swords and while she doesn't have one herself she does wish to learn how to use one in the future - Motorcycles; this is one of the only things that her brothers had actually managed to infect her with after declaring that they would find something they could share with her after her elder sister managed to infect her with her shopping - Fine Dining
Dislikes: - Arrogant People; one thing that Apollonia cannot stand are arrogant people who think that because they are a part of some prestigious family or have some amazing connections that make them above the law - Bullies; she can't stand bullies and she never will - it's the one thing that actually raises her hackles and when she sees it happening she deals swift punishment to the person bullying - Sub-par food; Apollonia has very sensitive taste buds and as a result of that she just cannot stand food that had been made with sub-par ingredients or not to the best of the chef's ability - Chick-flick movies; she doesn't know why but she cannot just stand watching chick-flick movies, for some reason they just make her want to shut herself off from the world and curse the people who thought creating such movies was a wise choice
Strengths: - Defence Against Dark Arts; She has always found DADA to be the easier subject for her to grasp and the spells come much easier to her as well, usually she manages to get her spells within the first one or two tries - Knows the Law; With Damon being a lawyer, he made sure to impart his knowledge of the law onto Apollonia so she at least knew how to protect herself in case something happened to her that required her to know the Law backwards - Self-Control; despite the age-old adage about red-heads being fiery tempered, Apollonia has quite the self-control and her fuse is so long that one will find it hard to actually make her head in such a direction she will need to head into the danger zone
Weaknesses: - History Books; no matter what, when Apollonia has her eyes set on a history book she will literally abandon everything that she is doing and read it - if she were offered the chance to read all the history books in the world there is a likely possibility that she would even skip out of her Hogwarts education for it. - Children; Apollonia had always held a certain fondness for children younger than her even when she had been a child herself - she always found the time to play with her younger cousins and their friends before she even played with her own age group. - Herbology; Apollonia doesn't have the so-called green-thumb so more often then not she tends to have a hard time during those lessons and the moment she hits sixth year, she plans on dropping the course altogether.
Positive traits: - Intelligent; Apollonia has a high IQ of around 140 - Confident; Apollonia believes that anything is possible for you as long as you try - Charismatic; She has quite the air about her that makes people listen to her - Honest; Sometimes too honest
Negative traits: - Cunning; Growing up with three older and very protective siblings had Apollonia developing a quite cunning and sneaky-like personality just to get or do what she wants - Uncompromising; Apollonia is one of those who refuses to compromise on what she believes is right or what she believes should be done - Nosy; At times she tends to stick her nose into things that she shouldn't be sticking it into - like her brother's lawyer cases, for example, she still remembers the tongue lashing she got for that
Born as the youngest child of Hyalla and Carlos, she was born to a loving family but also absentee parents who, after she was born, decided to focus entirely on their careers leaving her to be brought up by her older siblings who didn't seem to mind the responsibility of looking after their youngest sibling though the one that was her main caretaker was her eldest brother Damon, who by the time she was born, was just starting his foray into being a Lawyer.
While she knew she had parents, considering that they lived in the same house despite them being absentee parents to Apollonia, she grew to love Damon as her pseudo-father who did everything for her - he tucked her into bed at night, read her stories, dressed her, taught her to walk and read and he even taught himself how to make her hair pretty.
However with her being cared for by her elder siblings also led to them becoming very protective of her which just led her to sometimes storming off in a huff and that in turn led to them panicking and hyperventilating in their worry about her which just led into Apollonia bursting into tears because she worried her siblings and that in turn just led to her siblings rushing around to calm her.
As a result of that, Apollonia from a fairly young age took to sneaking around whenever she wanted some alone time and it also led her to slowly learn how to use her best weapons to her advantage aka her killer pout and hurt kitten eyes.
She first manifested her magic around the age of five when the cookies that she wanted to snack on had been hidden by Ajax on the top shelf in the kitchen only for them to disappear with pop and appear in front of her on the floor where she proceeded to happily munch on the snacks.
Her brother had been both proud of her but also quite disgruntled as he knew that a result of her forming magic, they'd have to try much harder to hide the snacks from her. Whenever she did find the snacks though, she was always proud and quite smug to see her siblings disgruntled faces when they inevitably found her snacking on the cookies in the kitchen.
As she grew closer to Hogwarts age, Ariande, who had been the last one to go to Hogwarts took her aside and explained to her about the school that she would be going to with her sister even going as far as to sketch her a rough map draft of where she could find the main classrooms that she would be in for a first few years. Though Ariande had kept mum on how they were sorted into their classes declaring that it was the tradition for first years to never be told that sort of thing.
When the time for Hogwarts came and Apollonia eagerly and with minimal tears left for the school that her siblings called their home away from home. It was her time to see the place now and it was her time to learn there and she would enjoy it very much.

The Leandros Family, while not known throughout the British Isles are actually an olde muggle royal-linked family from Greece where their roots went as far as Ancient Greece to the times of King Leonidas and King Xerxes. Though their blood has thinned that there's probably only around 8% royal blood in Apollonia and her family, the Greeks still consider the Leandros' family as one of the Royal Families of Greece.
While there's not any sort of proof whether their lineage is actually linked to the King of Sparta, as he was known at the time, many tend to speculate that the Leandros family are actual descendants from King Leonidas' line though they, personally tend to refute that claim and the main reason for that is purely because they don't wish to bring their enemies upon their heads.
Throughout the years, the Leandros family lived in Greece peacefully up until the Greek Civil War during the Second World War where fearing for their lives the Leandros family dispersed in all sorts of directions - the main family headed of to the British Isles' while everyone else disappeared further into Europe and then some even going as far as into the Americas.
When the main family arrived in the British Isles they decided to not settle on Great Britain soil but instead they decided on the Isle of Man where they have made a life for themselves by doing all sorts of things - some members of the family became fishermen, some became farmers while some of them decided to venture further into education and undertake jobs like lawyers, policemen and even judges.

Carlos and Hyalla met on the Hogwarts Express when they were both heading for their first year at the prestigious school in Scotland. They became fast friends and just as quickly became housemates as they were both sorted into Ravenclaw where they both flourished under their professor's guidance.
Being a half-blood but from a prominent Pureblood family, Hyalla was one of the so-called 'rebels' a child who mocked her posh and stifled upbringing by hanging around with muggle-borns and other half-bloods of a much lower ranking. She never really feared the backlash that it would cause as her elder brothers tended to protect her.
Carlos, on the other hand, being a Muggle-born was majorly disliked by the Hogwarts population and it wasn't only for his muggle heritage but also for his sheer prowess and smarts as well - he wasn't one of those who flaunted their knowledge in others faces but he was one of those who scored high without even trying in classwork.
Another thing that most purebloods and quite a few half-bloods despised about Carlos was his apparent claim to a Greek Royal Family and the wealth that came with it. While many Purebloods felt disdain some were quite aware of what sort of political power the Leandros' heir carried and that while that claim didn't mean much in the British Isles it meant that despite everything, Carlos could still be counted as the rightful Prince of Greece even though the Greeks no longer had a monarchy.
Over the years at Hogwarts, Carlos and Hyalla grew quite close and by the time their fifth year came no-one had been surprised when they arrived at Hogwarts so loved up and into each other that nothing else really registered on their radar.
By the time they graduated, many of their friends and acquaintances speculated that they would be married within weeks of their graduation so when their invitations did arrive, they all pretty much arrived at the wedding with a general sense of 'about time'.
After their marriage, they left on a two-year-long honeymoon during which time they literally travelled the world only for them to come back with Hyalla five-months pregnant with their first son.
After Damon was born the two of them had three more children, Ajax, Ariande and Apollonia after which they decided that four children were enough and instead the two focused on their careers after that.

| Subject: Meeting the Prince of France Mon Mar 11, 2019 12:59 am | |
| Meeting the Prince of France - Hogwarts, September 2021 Even before Apollonia came to Hogwarts the young girl had known of Jacques Clement, a teenager whose life was pretty much set out for him already, a man whose accomplishments at Hogwarts were even spoken outside of it; he was a man from the family that her mother always gossiped about in her little social gatherings. She had grown up listening about Jacques Clement and his family from her mother and siblings that the girl just pretty much ignored everything and everyone when the name Jacques Clement ever came up in conversation.
No, it wasn't because she didn't like him (she didn't even know him to not like him) but because everyone seemed to have all these pre-conceived images about the male and his family; it got her annoyed and the young girl just blanked whenever the topic of Clements ever came up.
When she did meet him she didn't really think much of him - he was just an older student in her house who was graduating that year and whose fanclub pretty much encompassed the whole school. She had been young, she still was, so she hadn't understood exactly why the man had so many girls and even some guys following his every word. It just made her wrinkle her nose in annoyance but she ignored it with the same kind of mindset as she ignored her sister and mother whenever they talked about Jacques.
Over the weeks of her first year at Hogwarts, Apollonia's curiosity with Jacques Clement slowly grew and the eleven-year-old had found herself becoming one of his fangirls, and no matter how hard and how vehemently she denied that to anyone that asked, privately she did agree that she had been a fangirl of his even though her curiosity with Jacques had been that of a girl who found her first puppy-crush.
She could count on one hand the number of times she had even spoken with the older teenager apart from the usual 'good morning' greetings that they all shared. And even then those times had been mainly Apollonia shyly going up to the older male and politely asking for help in her homework. He had been one of the smartest Slytherins in the school so Apollonia knew that he wouldn't have steered her wrong whenever she needed help.
Even though their meetings had been short and very brief, Apollonia's opinion about the teen had slowly changed over the course of the year and instead of ignoring conversations when the male's name come up she actively participated in them even though the heavier political topics just went over her head. The only topic she did ignore when it came to Jacques was when the older girls were talking about dating (which, just ew) him - whenever that came up she always bailed and ignored the giggling that followed her hasty departure.
And just like anyone else, when Jacques' graduation came up, Apollonia had been sad and quite down though unlike those older girls she did not cry. She was not Jacques friend, merely just a first-year who occasionally asked him for help, and she knew that she would probably not see the man that much in the future, if at all. |
