The Appearance
Hair: Kadey's hair is long and is as soft as silk. Her hair is a gorgeous brown with slight gingery streaks in it which gives it a lovely autumn look. Because Kadey's hair is easy to manage, she finds she can easily style it in any way she wants. Whether that's straight or curly. But it does take a lot of work, but it's well worth it in her opinion.
Face: Kadey has lovely brown/hazel eyes that seem to lighten when she's extremely happy Kadey doesn't know why this happens but it does. She thinks it could just be because of how she smiles. Her eyes almost seem to dance when she smiles and many people say her eyes are her best attribute.
Body & Style: When not wearing her school robes, Kadey likes to wear clothes that compliment her. Although relatively light, she's not that thin, she has curves in all the right places [some more then others] and so she tends to wear clothes that compliment that like jeans and a low cut top or a nice t-shirt. She's not in anyway looking to get guys, but lower cut tops suit her. She likes to occasionally wear fashionable clothes, but is comfortable in whatever she can find in the morning. Kadey stands at aproxxomanatly 5'4" and weighs 9 stones, so she is rather thin for her age and is often told to eat more however, due to her fast metabolism, she doesn't really put on weight, much to the annoyance of her friends and the concern of her parents.

The Personality
Likes:
+ Reading:: Kadey is somewhat of a bookworm and enjoys reading classics like Sherlock Holmes or Shakespeare, they often help her to relax and she loves the variety that is out there. She isn't fond of poems, especially when interpreting them, but anything else books, novels, plays etc., she just loves to read them.
+ Nature:: Her father's influence has been rather strong and she has been taught to respect nature, being a Christian, she looks at the world as beautiful and loves to see how unique and special each individual creature is.
+ Drama:: Kadey is a total drama queen, not in a bad way though, she isn't snobby nor does she look down on others, but she can overreact at things.
+ Transfiguration:: Kadey loves this lesson and is currently working towards becoming an animagus, its hard work but she knows it'll be worth it in the end.
+ Singing:: As well as Drama, Kadey also loves to sing and does as often as possible [much to the annoyance of her family] she has been taking singing lessons for quite some time now and feels its the best way to vent out her emotions and express how she is feeling.
+ Chocolate:: Like all teenagers and women, she has a soft spot for chocolate, if she is ever upset she heads straight to a bar of chocolate, it's the perfect pick me up in her opinion.
+ Grapes:: Probably the only fruit she likes, Kadey is more of a vegetable girl then a fruit girl, and she can just about stomach grapes.
+ Her family:: Kadey is very close to her family and often comes to them for advice and support. They are her threshold and she couldn't imagine life without them.
+ Shopping:: She is a bit of a shopoholic and will often go out with her friends and spend money on clothes that she'll probably only wear once or twice. Occasionally she will just shop for fun, as long as she has one or two friends around and has fun then she doesn't care what she gets
+ Scary movies:: She is not faint hearted at all and thoroughly enjoys scary movies, especially ones which involve monsters because she likes to see how close they get, which often causes her amusement. She loves to have a good scare every so often and enjoys the feeling of her heart pounding in her chest.
Dislikes:
+ Coffee:: Kadey detests coffee, she cannot stand caffeine and hates the taste of it, to her coffee tastes bitter and she can't understand why everyone seems to love it.
+ Wine:: Her parents have given her the odd sip and its allowed her to come to the decision that she doesn't like it. She isn't entirely sure why, some wines are too dry, some are too fruity, some are just bitter or have no desirable taste for her. She is hoping that as she gets older her taste buds will mature and she might just be able to stomach it, but for now wine is defiantly off limits.
+ Cruelty to animals:: She hates it when people are cruel to animals, after all they are Gods creations and are not always able to defend themselves. However, she isn't a vegetarian as she likes meat and understands that God placed certain animals on earth for food, however intentional cruelty is defiantly a pet peeve of hers and its best not to do something like that around her.
+ Odd numbers:: A strange thing to not like but she has an almost OCD thing about them, they don't sound or look right to her and she hates them. She has to eat in even numbers have the volume on even numbers, sit in an even numbered seat etc. Odd numbers just rub her the wrong way, she thinks it might be because you can't divide them, but she has never really worked out the real reason.
+ Her mother nagging:: In short, it drives her up the rule, being someone who loves to take risks and considers herself a free spirit, her mother constantly trying to control her and nagging her for one thing or the other rubs her the wrong way. She can understand her mother's need to protect her, but she would prefer if the two sat down and talked it out rather then the method her mother is using.
+ Lying:: She is a bit of a terrible lier, she can get away with it most of the time but she hates doing it, especially to friends and family and they can usually see when she is lying. She feels incredibly guilty if she starts lying, almost as if the lie will hurt someone. Although honesty isn't always the right thing, she tries to tell the truth as much as possible as she knows lying will never turn out good.
+ Her brother being away:: Although she wants her brother to have his own life and get a good education at university, she hates being away from him, the two used to be very close and in some ways they are, but Nathaniel is always busy which has put a strain on their relationship which Kadey often gets upset about.
+ The Cold:: Though she doesn't mind the rain having been born in Wales, a naturally rainy place, she doesn't like being cold. She never seems to be able to wrap up warm enough to stop herself getting cold in the winter, and it truly gets on her nerves. She prefers to be warmer and doesn't like having to shiver away in her clothes as she tries to keep warm.
+ Getting up early:: She is not an early riser and hates having to get up early, she loves to have lie ins and feels a lot more refreshed if she does, anything before 9 am is a struggle for her and she dislikes her various alarm clocks going off informing her that its time to get up. If she could she'd probably sleep most of the day and just stay awake at night but unfortunately her parents won't allow it.
Strengths:
+ Her compassion:: Kadey always puts others before herself and is very compassionate toward her friends and even strangers on occasion. She tries to ensure everyone is happy and is always there for those that need her. She has an enormous tendency to care and love someone and just needs someone to offer that to, she doesn't mind being single as she has enough love to go around to her friends, but no matter how bad she is feeling, a friend can always come to her.
+ Her determination:: She is a very headstrong and determined young woman and will stick something out to the end, if she wants to do something its very hard to stop her. Her determination often gets her through most situations, occasionally it has gotten her in trouble but she always picks herself back up again.
+ Can calm most situations:: Her compassion and determination come into play here, she is very level headed and doesn't like to see friends argue but understand that sometimes its needed. However if things get too heated, you can guarantee she'll be there to calm things down and stop people from getting hurt.
+ Can pull a good prank :: Her and her friend Straloch used to pull many a prank together and she's actually quite good at it, not as good as the Marauders but she can still hold her own.
Weaknesses:
+ Naive:: She can be rather naive in certain situations, especially involving what her brother is. Although she has been told about it, she cannot really understand and he often snaps at her for not understanding how hard it is for him. This naivety can sometimes come across in a bad way but she does try and understand people's situations.
+ Her temper:: She can often get angry at people and its easy for her to loose her temper; despite being compassionate. Certain things rub her the wrong way and she can sometimes get herself in trouble. She is working on trying to control her temper but certain factors are making it difficult.
+ Stubborn:: She is too stubborn for her own good, she doesn't often back down and in an argument she likes to win and to have the last word. Her brother is constantly asking her to be more careful but her carefree spirit and stubbornness stops her from listening. This can often land her in a whole load of trouble, and yet she is still too stubborn to stop.
+ Bugs:: She may love nature but she cannot stand bugs, they totally freak her out to heaven and back, there is just something unnatural about them. Out of all the bugs, bees and wasps are the worst.
Plans for the Future: To achieve the ability to become an animagus and get the necissary grades to do Aroura training.
Personality:
Kadey is a kind and calm person, she’ll always be there for her friends. She considers friends as the most important things in the world. And if she ever got a boyfriend, she'd always put her friends first. After all, friends are for lives, and most boyfriends aren't. Kadey is above all things a loyal person, she would never betray one of her friends, even if her life depended on it. She cares a lot about those close to her, and would hate to see them get hurt. She doesn't care what might happen to her, just as long as her friends are safe. Sadly this has caused a few injuries, but she doesn't care. A few cuts and bruises is worth protecting a friend.
Kadey is quite secretive and finds it hard to tell people stuff about her which she knows they may find disturbing. She may seem very confident, and in many ways she is. But she has things in her that she doesn't think is socially acceptable. So she hides a lot of herself away. She fears being judged and abandoned and doesn't want this to happen, she'd rather be hiding herself and be relatively happy then reveal everything and being alone.
Kadey is also quite mischievous. She’s always looking to pull a good prank. Not any that will hurt someone, but just to get a few laughs. She deeply misses her friend Straloch who she used to team up with to pull pranks and these days just tends to cause a bit of trouble here and there. She likes to push her limits every so often which annoys her brother who constantly reminds her that she isn't like him and has to be more careful, but she is a bit of a wild child and won't let anyone tell her what to do.
Some people might call Kadey brave, others could call her head strong and stupid. Kadey doesn't know what she'd call it herself. But her determination to stand up for what she believes in and to never back away from danger has put her in some trouble. But in her eyes, a problem or danger can't be resolved unless its faced head on. So in some ways people could say she didn't inherit her mother's brains. But Kadey does consider her methods to be quite clever...just not in the way people might expect.
The Background
Family Members:
MOTHER--Susuan Sewell // 42 // healer
FATHER--Bryan Sewell // 44 // works at the ministry of magic
SIBLINGS--Nathanial Sewell // 22 // university student
Residence: London
History:
Kadey was born in the beautiful hills of Cardiff; Wales to Bryan and Susan Sewell . She grew up there for a few good eight years before being moved to London and receiving the remainder of her younger education there. For a while she was bullied because of her accent, but a few that didn't she became friends with. Her friends got laughed at as well, but Kadey was quick to defend them. She never wanted anyone else to suffer because of her. So she soon began defending her friends, and since then Kadey has always regarded friends as the most important things.
But Kadey did find going to regular school hard; especially when she had such a big secret to hide. She was a witch; or rather her mother was. Her father was a wizard and so was her brother. Kadey knew eventually she'd get her own letter to attend a wizarding school. Being different caused Kadey to feel quite lonely; but thankfully she had one friend who she could talk to.... Straloch.
Her and Straloch were two peas in a pod. And when they were at school, they would always find some sort of micheive to get themselves into. The duo soon became known as the 'The Royal Pranksters'. Even the teachers refered to them as that title. Of course, the teachers tried to stop them. But Kadey and Straloch enjoyed themselves too much to be tamed.
Finally, Kadey got her Hogwarts letter, but alas Straloch didn't; or rather, not for the same one. Straloch would be attending Durstrung, the same wizrding school as his father. He had originally come from Germany and had moved over in his early life for his parents work but they decided to move back; although it upset Kadey a lot, she knew she couldn't do anything, but the two promised to write and to visit each other whenever they could.
Kadey was so excited to go to Hogwarts, that even the thought of Alina Vania Kerl going didn't discourage her. Alina was the daughter of Annon Vania Kerl. A rival of her father's. The two families had been at 'war' with each other. Annon was jealous of Kadey's father, the two used to be friends but when Kadey's mother had married Brintal; Annon had never forgiven him. It had caused a rift between the two friends, and unfortunatly that hatred had passed down into Alina.
Alina seemed determined to make Kadey's life a misery, and soon Kadey was wishing she could hex Alina and make her stay away for good. But Kadey knew that if she did, it wouldn't go down too well. And she didn't want to make things worse. So even though Alina's anticts made her miserable, she tried to ignore it.
Her first few years at Hogwarts were the best, although she spent her life surrounded by magic; learning it was a whole new experience. And whenever she could, she would practise so that she could be the best that she could. Of course, when she wasn't practising she was out doing other things like exploring, pranking or even playing Quidditch. Kadey found she'd get bored easily, so she liked to entertain herself in a variety of ways.
As she got towards her sixth year, she decided she wanted to specalise in Transfiguration [her favourite lesson], Defense against the Dark Arts, Charms and unfortunatly Potions [yuck]. She took whatever she needed so that she'd become an Auror. And although she finds it hard at times, she sticks to it.
Kadey mainly spends her time in Hogwarts but during the holidays she returns to her home in London. Usually when she's at home she gets to see Straloch, but she also spends time going to Wales and having fun at the beaches or visiting Cardiff to visit her birthplace..
