physical
[/i][/size][/left]physical appearance[/i]
True to the Veela bloodline, Daenalaia is absolutely stunning. Standing at 5'6 she is of an average height for her age however with her love for heels and legs that go on forever she very often looks a bit taller than she actually is. She is quite willowly in stature and often laments that thanks to her heritage she might never add many curves to her figure or that she will ever have decent breasts but has come to accept herself for who she is and despite the genes is not very vain about her appearance.
Her eyes are a pale violet which darken depending on her mood and as far as she knows is one of very few students who cannot change the way they look to have such unusual eye colouring. Framed by long, pale lashes she often wears mascara in order to darken them so they are more visible. Matching her pale lashes her hair is a very light brown, almost blonde and is one of the things to betray her heritage (apart from the natural magnetism she exudes of course). Unlike her mother who has incredibly long hair Daenalaia tends to keep it a little shorter and it only falls to the middle of her back since she finds it to be a pain to keep out of the way during classes if it were any longer. She may grow it out once she had graduated but until that time she keeps it tied back away from her face.
In regards to make up, apart from the little she uses on her lashes she tends to stick only to lip glosses since she has little use for such frippery whilst she is at school. The only thing she tends to keep on top of in regards to looking good is her nails which are always kept well manicured and if she can avoid working in the greenhouses then she will do so, having a great dislike of getting them dirty or even worse breaking them!
Her clothing doesn't tend to vary from her school uniform however isn't afraid to wear designer clothing and will spend a great deal of money to keep on top of the latest fashions.
Despite her beauty she is of course a veela meaning that she can turn very ugly indeed when angered. Literally. Her beautiful features change to resemble a cruel beaked bird, wings sprout from her back and (perhaps her favourite thing about the transformation) she has the ability to hurl fire from her hands. She is aware that for most people this is quite a daunting thing and so far has yet to lose her temper so badly that she has shown this side of her face at school.

erised[/i]
To find a mate willing to put up with her overbearing mother. She doesn't care if they are of a magical background or veela as long as they love her for who she is. She also wants to dabble in modelling but it isn't a big thing for her.
amortentia[/i]
Freshly baked croissants, vanilla, soap (she adores it when boys come past her smelling of freshly washed skin)
boggart[/i]
Her secret fear is that she will fall into the routine of most other veela in her family in regards to becoming an incredibly vain creature. She can be vain but she doesn't want her life ruled by her beauty! Her public fear is horses....she can't stand the things!
dementor[/i]
When she was a young girl her mother tried to take her horse riding, claiming that for a muggle past time it was one worthy of their family however the horse threw the young veela the moment she actually got up onto its back, breaking her arm and giving her a nasty bump on the head. Daenalaia has never been near one of those creatures since!
patronus[/i]
Swallow tailed hummingbird- Coming to Hogwarts and meeting a variety of people. Having grown up in a very tight knit community meeting all these people was a new adventure.
overall personality[/i]
To most people Daenalaia can be quite aloof to those around her. Being brought up in a close knit Veela community she had never had much interaction with the general public until it was time to go to school and as a result of this finds it very difficult to connect with the people around her, especially since none of them are pure veela like herself...not even those with veela blood can truly connect with her on that level.
For the most part she likes to keep herself to herself, sitting at the back of the class speaking only when needed or when asked and will be the one to sit on her own in the common room since she finds it difficult to have any real friends. Being in Slytherin has not helped matters since she has found that there is still some prejudice towards creatures like herself. However, there is a good reason she is in that particular house.
Apart from being seen as aloof she can be highly manipulative if she chooses to be and is very good at getting herself out of trouble -without using her charm on the males around her! She likes to have her own way but tends to go about it in such a way you would never click onto that fact. If she had to describe herself in the ways she gets out of such little messes she would have to say it is a greater survival sense than those around her...her grandmother always did warn her that there were those that would do all they could to bring them down and Daenalaia, whilst not a cruel person at heart, has no intentions of being a slave to some pureblooded fool who wants to try and break her down. She may also have a slight issue with authority thanks to her mother and father.
Despite her somewhat standoffish attitude towards those at school she does have one or two people she happens to quite like and will try her best to put aside previous prejudices she has grown up with in order to be a little more approachable but it has been a long and hard task that she sometimes slips up with...not intentionally of course but it is more noticeable when she returns to the school after any holidays.
Her relationship with her family can be described as explosive at best. Although she will never go out of her way to discredit her parents she does tend to simmer abut the way her mother in particular treats her. Unlike most veela Daenalaia is nowhere near as vain as the rest of her kind, instead trying to ignore her outer beauty and working hard to fix her inner self. Her mother on the other hand is incredibly vain and spends most of her time trying to force her views on her eldest daughter, not that it ever goes down well. With two parents who were both pure veela and models it is no surprise there was arguments along the way but in order to keep the peace she does try to appease her parents in most aspects and it is general knowledge that after any holiday from school she tends to revert back to her old ways in regard to the way she treats those around her.
One last thing to note about Daenalaia is that she has something of a terrible temper, one that has yet to be seen at the school. She likes to think she has the patience of a saint when it comes to those around her however she has given in to her inner harpie once or twice at home. She dislikes losing her temper but is resigned to the fact that it is something she has to live with although she does try to keep a tight hold of it when she is away from her home.

history[/i]
Daenalaia was born to a young mother who had recently gotten married to a family friend. Not that this sort of origin is anything unusual in the magical community if one happens to be pureblood but the difference to this family was that they were all purebred veela. For generations they had married only their own kind with very few exceptions and for this young couple it was nothing out of the ordinary to be expected to carry on the line.
Living in a very small community meant that it was impossible not to be related to some or even perhaps all of those that lived in their small town so for the young veela girl it was nothing to grow up surrounded by so many cousins and second cousins. Even when her siblings were born she was something of the apple of their parents eye...at least until it became obvious that Daenalaia was something of a wild card in regards to how many of them usually acted. Unlike her parents and siblings she had no care about the way she looked and tended to act really quite boyish to a point. She went through a stage of attempting to climb trees and would dance in the rain, unlike her siblings who abhorred the thought of getting muddy and wet through.
Her mother, trying to install some sense of rationality to her daughter attempted all kinds of activities that were thought to be more ladylike than running around like a wild child but one after another they all fell through until there was nothing left but school work and discipline. To some extent it did work. Daenalaia grew to dislike getting herself covered in mud but not because she hated dirt but because she was punished each time she came in from the outside in any appearance that wasn't immaculate. She never danced in the rain again although she wishes she could do so but the fear of her mother's reaction is deep within her and she cannot bring herself to do it.
Of course, apart from this she lived a relatively normal life. Once she was old enough to attend school she went to Beauxbatons for the first few years before her parents seperated, leaving her to follow her mother to London who having left modelling was looking to act in theatre. It had been no surprise. Her father and mother were very looks orientated and trying to pull away from their own beauty to look at the others was nearly impossible and eventually it was found that Garrick had had several affairs.
At the age of 14 she was uprooted from a life she had always known to a new one in the hustle and bustle of a new city. Along with this new home she was transferred to a new school. Hogwarts. Suddenly, for the first time in her life she was able to talk and interact with people she would never have dreamed of meeting in any other circumstances however she found it incredibly difficult to move away from everything she had already learnt. Language was no problem since she spoke English with little to no accent but she couldn't get close to people, years of her mother's training firmly set in her mind. These people were not veela, how could they understand her? Not even those with the blood in their veins knew how she felt....but she did try. Honest she did but in the end it just didn't happen. It didn't help being put into Slytherin of course. A house full of its own prejudice let alone those of the other houses.
Now at 16 she has gotten used to the fact that she will never have many school friends, or that she will ever lose the feeling of not belonging but she doesn't mind all that much. All that matters now is that she graduates with good grades and that she can make her parents proud of her one way or another.
