» OVERALL PERSONALITY:
Jezebel is a very outgoing, social, generally friendly person. She likes interacting with people and isn't shy about talking to people she doesn't know. If you're friendly to her, she'll be friendly back. For the most part she's kind and nice. But the girl does have a different side to her. Though not necessarily mean, Jezebel can be very confrontational. If she doesn't like you or you annoy her, she'll gladly let you know. When angry, she can be very aggressive; she's not the type to not fight back and just take abuse. The girl can definitely be described as feisty, and she's proud of it. This also extends to the protection of her friends: if one of her friends is somehow being insulted or attacked, she'll gladly stick up for them. Being the loyal friend that she is, Jezebel will not sit back and allow her friends to be abused. And this girl will fight to the death; once she has her heart and mind set on something, there's no changing it. Needless to say she's extremely stubborn. But despite her aggressive nature, Jez doesn't actually like hurting people. If she really doesn't like the person then she won't care as much, but if she hurts someone she doesn't hate, then she always feels extremely guilty. The girl is not sadistic, and isn't out to make sure everyone is hurting, even though she often wants people to hurt as much as she does. But when she is hurting, Jezebel tends to hurt other people, though it's mostly unintentional, just a product of her venting. However, that's only if she chooses to actually interact with people. Typically Jez wants to be alone when she's upset, and tends to be colder towards people if she ends up having to be social.
Jezebel is a very adventurous sort of person. She loves to explore and try new things, and is quite brave, hence why she's in Gryffindor. She's always been the one to climb the tree to the highest branch or go trucking through the scary part of the forest. If an occasion arises where an activity actually makes her nervous, she won't show it; even in the moments where she's not brave, she pretends that she is. This is because Jezebel hates to seem weak. So if something scares her or somehow hurts her emotionally, she's very unlikely to actually show it. She's not always very good at expressing her emotions, mainly because she just doesn't know how, or doesn't want to at the risk of seeming too weak. Jezebel is not very good at emotionally connecting with people; she doesn't know how to get close to someone. Due to trauma in her past, Jez has had a lot of issues with trusting people. Sure she may be friendly often, but most of the time she keeps people at a distance and it's hard to truly get close to her. One of her fears is getting emotionally hurt. Physical pain she can take; thanks to her father, she's learned to cope with that sort of pain. But she has trouble with emotional pain, and tends to pull away from anything or anyone that she thinks might cause it. The idea of making herself completely vulnerable to someone terrifies her, which is why a lot of times, if she's starting to get close to someone romantically, she'll pull away before she gets too close and risks hurting herself. It's usually a subconscious action; she doesn't even realize when she's starting to pull away.
Jezebel is also blessed with some intelligence. She's a good analyzer (though sometimes tends to over-analyze) and likes problem solving. Schoolwork usually is easy for her, though she tends to procrastinate. But for the most part the work gets done, even if she finishes it five minutes before class starts or she has to copy a bit from her sister. In life in general, she doesn't always think things through, and often ends up having to learn something the hard way. But hey, she learns it and that's all that really matters. Jez loves to read, and is perfectly happy with just chilling out in the common room or on the lawn, just reading a novel. She thinks people that think reading is lame are wrong. And when she's upset, Jez likes to use novels to escape the drama of the real world. But despite this love of reading, Jez also likes to experience things for herself, versus always learning things from a book. She's a very visual learner; if she sees someone perform a spell, she usually understands how to go about doing it. This doesn't mean that she'll be able to do it perfectly the first time around, since that's not how magic works. But she prefers watching someone and learning that way, versus listening to a lecture and expecting to be taught like that. Also, she prefers to learn things on her own. Accepting help is not one of her talents. And if she does accept help, it's reluctantly and grudgingly. Jez is a very independent person, who likes doing and figuring things out on her own.

» OVERALL HISTORY:
During the reign of Lord Voldemort, he recruited a band of werewolves into his legion of followers. On of the most well known members of this group was the infamous Fenrir Greyback. Fenrir didn't care about blood purity -- he was in it for the violence. Nobody was safe from his brutality, especially near the full moon. Not only was he sadistic, but he was powerful. And the power is what attracted one Grace Hunter, a young former Slytherin in her twenties. Though she was a halfblood, Grace was definitely cunning and harsh enough to be a good Slytherin. She first saw Fenrir in a bar in Diagon Alley, though at the time she had no idea who or what he was. Before she could make a move to talk to him, he was swallowed by the huge crowds. A month later she saw him again, this time near the Shrieking Shack. She recognized him instantly and approached, which nearly got her killed; Fenrir didn't like being sneaked up on. But he let her live, and a short while later they'd skipped the small talk and were hot and heavy on the forest floor. Over the next few months they continued to meet in secret, for Fenrir was still hiding from the Ministry. Grace began developing a deep attachment, and she believe he felt the same. He didn't, and stopped talking to her after about a year.
Even though she'd stopped being one of his many mistresses (and she never knew there were so many others) she continued to think of herself as his favorite, claiming he'd loved her deeply. But she never saw him again, and to this day has no idea where he ended up. About a month and a half after she'd stopped seeing him, Grace realized she was pregnant. There was no question as to who the father was, because Grace had remained faithful to Fenrir. Naturally she decided to keep the child, and less than a year later she'd given birth to a baby girl named Jezebel Savannah Greyback. Grace had known what Fenrir was, so knew that her daughter would be half werewolf. The idea didn't frighten her in the least; on the contrary, she felt proud to have given birth to such a child. The first few years of Jez's life passed by uneventfully. She was a very rambunctious child, always getting into trouble and exploring where she shouldn't. Curiosity was a strong trait in her, and she loved to try new things and investigate the world around her. The child also had a vicious temper, throwing tantrums intensely, especially near the full moon. She was not a full werewolf so never changed, but her eyes would turn gold when she was struck with strong emotion, and her temper was a force to be reckoned with.
Jezebel had her first sign of magic at age five, when she'd turned a cat pink after it hissed at her. The girl had giggled happily and her mother had been very excited to see her daughter was magical, although she hadn't expected her to be a squib. Things changed drastically about a year and a half later when Jezebel was nearly seven. While at a bar with friends, Grace met a man she found herself very attracted to. The girl was still attracted to power, and it had led her to yet another werewolf, this one no better than Fenrir. They began seeing each other regularly, and this one stuck around. His name was Edward Weston, and he was very interested in the single woman with lots of money. About a year after they met they were married, much to the dismay of Jezebel, who often bluntly informed Edward that he was not her father. For the most part he ignored the child, unless she somehow angered him in which he'd yell and rage quite hard before making her go to her room. Grace, being the rather terrible mother that she was, never bothered to try and protect her daughter from Edward's anger.
When Jezebel was nine, her mother grew ill with a disease the healers couldn't cure. Jez didn't fully understand what was happening, but she knew it wasn't good that her mother was always in the hospital or bedridden. Eventually her mother was too delirious to even recognize her, and Jez was always near tears as she tried to convince the woman that she was her daughter. This painful existence continued for another few months before Grace died in her bed, leaving her daughter in the custody of Edward. Edward was outraged to be suddenly responsible for this obnoxious little child, and now that her mother wasn't around, he abused Jezebel frequently. For awhile it was just the same old verbal battering, but soon enough it turned physical. It started with a slap and then escalated until some nights Jezebel couldn't even stand. Several times she tried to run away from home, but as much as he wanted to be rid of her, Edward didn't want to risk the Ministry picking her up and finding out what he'd done. Finally her letter to Hogwarts came, and Edward happily sent her away.
Going to the magical castle was amazing for Jezebel, who was thrilled to be away from her stepfather. When she arrived she was sorted into Gryffindor. While living alone with Edward, Jezebel had been quiet and introverted. Now that she was free of him most of the time, she began to become more like her older self, from before Edward was in her life. She became more outgoing though remained guarded, and as time passed she learned to be more confident. For the first time she was aware that most people weren't werewolves; she'd had two werewolf fathers and she herself was a werewolf, not to mention she hadn't gotten out a lot to find out the truth. But she was proud of what she was, even if she wasn't proud of her father, who she never met. Jez was a good student, and enjoyed her time at school. Summers with Edward were horrible, but when she was within the castle walls she felt quite safe. Now she's in her sixth year of school, and is starting to think about careers.
