physical
[/i][/size][/left]physical appearance[/i]
Lilith has very red hair and exceedingly blue eyes, though the red is not her natural colour, her natural colour is unknown due to so many colour changes since her Hogwarts days.
Lilith has soft pale skin that is very delicate and bruises easily. She has a healthy blush to her cheeks and a smile that could leave you wondering if she's good or evil.
Lilith is a good 5'10" tall and weighs 129 lbs. She has dark brown eyebrows that give away the fact that she is not a natural red head. She has a shapely bottom lip but her top lip is quite thin but it suits her face.
Her nose has a bit of a point to it at the end and looks hooked from head on. Lilith is particularly gifted in Transfiguration but is not a metamorphmagi but changes her hair with magic and even a few of those nasty wrinkles that are starting to set in.

overall personality[/i]
Lilith is a big believer in equal opportunities and working to get to where you want to go. She doesn't like the idea of a free ride for anyone unless everyone gets a free ride and that just doesn't happen. As well as being fair Lilith is a big believer in learning be it through books, lessons or real life experiences, she loves to learn and picks up on things quickly.
Lilith's favourite time of year is Christmas. She does not have a family of her own nor does she see much of her sister but she loves to give and enjoy the company of those around her at the time.
Lilith likes to give people a chance, no matter what their background, to her each individual person deserves a chance to live their life the way they want to providing it doesn't hurt or damage another living being. What she does not like is giving people a second chance because usually that means that she has been let down once before by this person, however she is fair and will give people that second chance but usually that will be all.
To coincide with learning Lilith is a lover of languages. She's learnt all sorts of languages from all over the globe and even Mermish, Gobbledegook and Troll. She has a natural ability to speak parseltongue that was passed down through her family for as long as they had been documenting.
Lilith tends to neglect everything outside of the castle. She has professional relations with some of those that work at the Ministry and the Minister for Magic, what with having a lot of vampires and werewolves at the school there has been much need for correspondence with the ministry, despite Lilith's dislike for the system.
Lilith is fiercely loyal to the point where she can get a little overbearing, she can occasionally have an issue with boundaries and getting along with authority figures that place too much importance upon their titles.

history[/i]
Lilith was born an only child, she grew up an only child and went through adolescence as an only child and yet when she turned 20, she had a sibling, a baby sister named Eve.
Lilith had a comfortable childhood growing up, she didn't alway get what she wanted but their family wasn't exactly poor, they managed to get by with enough left over for a holiday every summer.
Lilith loved her time away, visiting different countries, from an early age she was encouraged by both her parents to learn other languages, they too spoke different languages and helped teach a young Lilith as much as they could, but her thirst for knowledge was insatiable.
Lilith learnt three languages before she went to Hogwarts as well as having a natural gift from both of her parents of being a parseltongue, a gift her parents had told her to keep hidden through fear of judgement, parseltongue's were associated with the evil and wicked and they did not want that for their daughter.
Lilith attended Hogwarts and was placed into Gryffindor. Despite both her parents having been Slytherin it was the only house option the sorting hat had not considered for her. In the end Gryffindor won out but narrowly, she possessed many favourable traits for all houses.
During her time at Hogwarts Lilith added another two languages to her vocabulary. She knew knew English, French, Greek, Italian, Welsh and Mermish.
Lilith left Hogwarts with a sense of wonderment and straight O's in all her subjects apart from Divination where she suffered an A. She wanted to see the world, learn more about other cultures and live a life without regrets. First on her world tour was New Zealand, where she spent time travelling and doing anything even remotely adventurous, bungee jumping, white water rafting and spending time caring for sick muggle animals as well as magical ones, she also worked in hospitals both magical and muggle.
Before she left New Zealand she met a guy, they had a brief fling and it turned out the guy was a Quidditch player for the New Zealand Quidditch team. She cared for the teams Mascot Sparky, a phoenix, leading up to, during and after his burning days, they grew close to one another and the rare bird came to trust her.
When it came time to leave New Zealand, after three years, and explore more of the world Lilith was torn, she wanted to stay, to be with the man she was starting to fall in love with and to support the New Zealand quidditch team as well as caring for Sparky, but she had to move on and she could always go back.
Her next stop was Australia wandering the bush and working for children's charities and those that helped families. She learnt a lot of things and stayed in Australia for two years, doing what she loved and taking adventures with aboriginals, tourists and random strangers she met at youth hostels. Her favourite part of Australia was the Great Barrier Reef with all its tropical fish.
After Australia was America, Africa, the Middle East, Eastern Europe and Asia, western Europe and back to the UK, spending time exploring at home, but no matter where she went, Lilith always found work to do with people, paying her way by working in animal hospitals, magical and muggle.
By the time she was twenty-nine, having spent ten years travelling the globe, Lilith had finished travelling the world, she was happy at home and as much as she liked to travel she would be happy to just do it in the summer.
Lilith got a job in Hogsmeade and lived there, she worked in a couple of places in the village and loved them both. There was Madam Puddifoot's and Zonko's Joke Shop. She was there from March 1998 and involved so much in village life that when it came time for the final battle of Hogwarts, she headed up to the castle with many other village residents and helped fight against the Death Eaters. She witnessed so much and found it heartbreaking to see so many deaths. After that, when she'd only been there for two months, she took off for New Zealand only to find the man she loved with another woman and a baby on the way.
Lilith was happy for her ex-lover and spent time with Sparky, he became her only reason for staying in New Zealand but she wasn't yet ready to return to the United Kingdom.
Lilith spent her time in New Zealand learning as much as she could about anything and everything. She learnt about animals, more languages, including Gobbledegook, ancient cultures from around the world and even spent a while teaching in some muggle schools.
Lilith had spent six extra years in New Zealand before hearing rumours of a job opening in Hogwarts, she applied for Professor of Muggle Studies, got the job and stayed in that position for 17 years.
During one of her summer holidays off from school, Lilith visited the Northern Territory on a trip to Australia, she walked about the bushland for days and came across a familiar sight, a burning bird. She cared for the bird and shared her provisions with it, she couldn't stay with it for long and knew that the wild life would eat a poor defenceless baby bird on its own and so she made a nest from twigs, gum leaves and eucalyptus leaves and took it on her two day walk back to camp.
She cared for the bird until it had grown much bigger and was nearly at its full size, it was nearly time to return back to Hogwarts and so she apparated back to the spot where she had found the bird to set it free, the bird however did not leave her side and has been a pet to Lilith ever since. She named the Phoenix Phyre and returned to Hogwarts, Phyre in tow.
December 2021 when Professor Conway resigned from her position Lilith applied and much to he pleasure got the job, she's currently working on a magical alarm system for the school so that if a Vampire bites a human while on the grounds of Hogwarts, including its forest, their fangs and teeth all retract into their gums and an alarm sounds to all the Professors ad the location of said vampire appears on a map in Lilith's office. She's also trying to work out a same sort of system for werewolves, ever since the incident a few years ago when a student was infected by another student she has wanted to put some kind of measure into effect to stop it ever happening again. She also has sectioned off a large part of the forbidden forest for all the student werewolves. Each must be accounted for the afternoon of the full moon and then a spell cast that spans over and exceedingly large section of the forest that allows animals to pass as they please but not werewolves or humans, at least not until morning. If Lilith ever lost a student it would devastate her, she wont take any risks when it comes to the safety of those in the castle and comes down hard on bullies that don't learn their lessons.
Lilith doesn't just concentrate on Hogwarts, she's very concerned about the rising power, the Dark Avengers and the death of Harry Potter, she's willing to try nearly anything to stop the kind of bloodshed that occurred in 1998.
