Full Name: Blair Van der Woodsen
Age: 17
Blood Line: Pureblood
Appearance:(a picture is acceptable) [Picture: Leighton Meester] [Blair is about 5' 5", she has fair/medium skin, and she has dark brown hair with subtle highlights. Her eyes are a chocolate brown that could melt anyone's heart. However, when they're as cold as ice, they could basically freeze hell over.
Her form looks small and fragile, but she is much stronger and more powerful than can be imagined. If she chose to, she could probably wrestle a 300 pound male and win (not that she would; that's below her).
Blair is constantly wearing designer robes and clothes. Almost everything she wears is made of silk, cashmere, or Egyptian cotton. Nothing is second-hand or second-best. Everything is top designer brands.]
Patronus Snow Leopard
Background: F a m i l y DYNAMIC: [Blair grew up as an only child with two "loving" parents who spoiled her to death.
Conseta, her mother, married when she was quite young, and married a man quite a bit older than herself. It wasn't for money, but Blair doesn't think it was for love either. Blair's relationship with her mother is strained. She likes to embarrass her quite a bit, and it pisses Blair off.
Calib, her father, is 15 years her mother's senior. He is rich, but so was her mother before they married. Their fortunes combined just made them that much richer. Blair's father spoils her like crazy. If Blair wants it, she gets it. No questions asked. Her father also is a work-a-holic, so Blair thinks that he spoils her to make up for the lack of time spent together. She really doesn't care as long as she gets what she wants. Also, because he spoils her, Blair's relationship with her father isn't exactly close, but much better off than her and her mother's [relationship].]
G e n e r a l HISTORY: [Growing up, Blair lived with her parents in a huge mansion next door to her a few of her other rich classmates, most in Slytherin or Ravenclaw. They knew each other since their births, but Blair wasn't one for interacting with most of them unless at a social even. There were a select few, however, that she would spend some extra time with.
As she became older, Blair started to become more and more selfish, and she didn't follow in many of her friends' footsteps, deciding to stay a virgin and not party hard. The fact that she had learned to realized that she was a lesbian also caused Blair to be much more cautious in these situations.
After that, she basically was much choosier with her friends. She hung out with sophisticated, rich classmates that came from prestigious families throughout the rest of her years.
Now, in her seventh year, Blair has still kept her secret of her sexual orientation a secret to all. Most don't seem to question (probably because they think of her as prude), but there are always those select few he have to but their noses into her business.]
Personality + Flaws: [Blair is a very head-strong girl when it comes to all aspects of her life. If she wants something, she'll get it by whatever means necessary. Nothing and no one will stand in her way.
Blair always loves to be on top. She hates being second best and won't settle for anything but first. Whether it's in school, socially, or in any other aspect in her life, she will be number one.
This being said, Blair is extremely intelligent. Not wanting anyone to beat her scores in school, she studies quite a bit. However, studying takes absolutely no time away from her social life. If she needs to, she'll cram, but it's usually not too big of a deal since she easily comprehends material.
Blair is also very vain and selfish. She doesn't care much about anyone else but herself unless they're extremely close friends (and I'm talking bffls). If she can improve on something, she will, even if it means hurting someone else.
Blair is also all for the dark-side coming into power. In her mind, muggles are just people on her way to greatness.
Blair also tends to look down on people who don't live up to her "standards". Really, her standards are defined by whether or not she likes you. Then, if she doesn't, she finds a reason not to.
Blair is also lesbian, and only Nicolette and Isabella know.]

Find someone to spend her life with.
