[b]NAME:[/b] [LIST]“upon my birth my parents bestowed me with the name of andromeda mnemosyne katharine hélène black. the black family has this whole astronomy thing going on with the names that it gives their children. the name andromeda is no different. my middle name, philippa, is the aatiniate feminine form of philip. my second middle name, mnemosyne, Means "remembrance" in greek. in greek mythology mnemosyne was a titan goddess of memory. she was the mother by zeus of the nine muses.. my third middle name, iphigenia, is gerived from greek iphios "strong, stout" and genes "born". in greek myth iphigenia was the daughter of king agamemnon. when her father offended artemis it was divined that the only way to appease the goddess was to sacrifice iphigenia. just as agamemnon was about to sacrifice his daughter she was magically transported to the city of taurus. many members of the house of black — such as my cousin sirius, my sister bellatrix, and my father cygnus — appear to be named after stars or constellations, and the name andromeda follows this pattern. andromeda means 'to think of a man' from the greek element andros 'of a man' combined with medomai 'to think, to be mindful of.' andromeda is a constellation in the northern sky which gets its name from a mythical greek princess who was rescued from sacrifice by perseus. this name was also given to the nearest galaxy beyond our own. mnemosyne means 'remeberance' in greek. katharine is the english variant of katherine. hélène is the french form of helen. black means either 'black' (from old english blœc) or 'pale' (from old english blac). it could refer to a person with a pale or a dark comlexion, or a person who worked with black dye. tonks is an unusual and interesting surname is a patronymic from the name 'tonk,' itself being a diminutive of the personal name thomas, an aramaic name meaning 'twin.'

"c'mon andy, can't you tear yourself away from your books for a few minutes to be with me?"
"ted, the newts are going to be upon me next year i want to do as well as i can."
"but you're already studying overly hard, i could sit her and watch you all day you know that but i'd rather ask you something important and i'm not going to do that here." ted asked pushing a lock of hair behind her ear.
andy smiled and slammed her book shut, "oh, alright, you can have an hour."
ted grabbed her hand and practically yanked her up on her feet.
"slow down," she laughed, "the day's not going anywhere."
"but you will if i don't hold on to you."
the sun shone brightly through the gathering clouds as andromeda ran to keep up with ted. she was so happy to be with him, he just made every day more spe- cial to her. he led her through the castle to a small part of the woods to the dap- pled field where they'd first made love. andromeda felt her heart skip a beat. th- ey only came here on special occasions and she was surely missing something. she bit her lip to keep from asking too many questions. ted pulled her close as they sat underneath the tall trees.
"i have something really important to ask you, andy and i want you to keep an open mind and don't answer unless you really think it over."
"ted, what is it? you're starting to scare me." andromeda's eyes were filled with fear as she searched his face.
he took her hands, "marry me andromeda, i love you so much, i'll make you the happiest person in the world."
she couldn't catch her breath. it clogged in her lungs... she looked at him before promptly bursting into tears. it was the only question she'd been wanting to hear from him for the longest time.
"oh, god, andy. i'm sorry, i thought-"
"no you fool!" andy said between sobs, she looked at him, cupping his face in her hands "of, course, i'll marry you!" she pressed her lips to his.

[b]OVERALL PERSONALITY:[/b] [LIST]Andromeda is a spontaneous, free-spirited young woman. She is a romantic and a dreamer with a rich, poetic imagination. She has no fear of anyone or anything (except for flying). She'll try anything once, twice if she had a good time. Her motto is: "Don't complain, never explain." And she trusts herself -- always has, always will. She has an electric vitality and her intuition is remarkable, radiant and alive. It lends her an otherworldly sort of beauty. It is one of the strongest aspects of her whole character and is felt powerfully by everything she does. More adjectives to describe Andromeda? She is adventurous, curious, charming, funny, magnetic, proud and completely confident. She's also a smart-ass and very rebellious. To her credit, she can make the best out of any situation, no matter how bad or hopeless it may seem. Andromeda is a true original, one of a kind, and happy to stay that way. It's not that Andromeda dances to the beat of a different drummer, she's dancing to an entirely different band! Unfortunately, Andromeda's optimism has been known to lead her into careless behavior. Wherever Andromeda goes, there is bound to be a lot of turbulence. She's not the sort of person to make one simple career choice and then settle down in the normal nine-to-five world. Thankfully, her powerful will is up to the many responsibilities she takes on, and her natural extroversion will always keep her in the thick of things. Her intuitive sense is so highly developed and strong, she is able to anticipate events but this comes with a flaw: she will never be able to see her own future.
Unlike Bellatrix, with her refined sensibilities, Andromeda is more down to earth and easy going. She shops at thrift stores, has never had a bank account (she never has any money) and has had more "careers" in the last three years than her sisters will ever have in their entire lives. Andromeda believes there is more to life then being tied down to anything permanent. After all she's constantly moving, changing her looks and her way of life to try and keep her family away from her. Yes, Miss Andromeda is the greatest disappointment in her family. But she's tired of having to live up to their expectations which is why she is so wild and unusual. It's safe to say that Miss Andromeda is quite the adrenaline junkie- she has the hankering to do just about everything, from base jumping to rock climbing and everything in between. She has always been a tomboy even if you can't tell it- yea Andromeda is definitely one of the guys. Not that this bothers her but it would be nice if they would see her as a woman now and again, which she is. To go with that wild child flare of hers Andromeda is extremely stubborn, a trait she inherited from her mother. Once she sets her mind to something there's no changing it. Her father often says that she can out stubborn a rock if she puts her mind to it, something that isn't always the best.
Andromeda has some issue with romantic relationships. She doesn't believe that men and women are meant for any permanent or long term relationships. That they use this as an excuse to act foolishly and if Andromeda wants to act foolishly she'll do it without excuses. Which leads to another strange quirk. Andromeda doesn't believe in love. Well she says that because she is afraid of falling in love and getting hurt. Andromeda is quite a mystery to behold and is, at times, extremely difficult to understand, often hurting the ones she loves to keep herself from getting hurt. If she is in any kind of romantic relationship she picks and picks at it looking for flaws until the whole thing unravels and she's left alone again. It seems as if she makes as many enemies as she does friends, something that baffles her at times. In love she is fickle, not intentionally so but because of the basic inconsistency of her emotional nature, which has an amoral aspect to it. There is a side to Andromeda which can become deeply involved emotionally, and another, hostile to sentimentality, which makes her stand back from a romantic situation, laughing at it and the protagonists in it, including herself while analyzing it intellectually.
Just like anyone else is Andromeda has a bit of a dark side. Most notable her impulse and impatience. She's not the kind of girl who can sit around the house and do nothing, she doesn't have the kind of personality for that. She likes being up and doing things and she doesn't wait for others to catch up with her. Plus she's got the impulse of a twelve year old boy. If her friends ask her to do something she'll most likely do it, no stopping her! Even worse Andromeda can be quite selfish. But mostly when it comes to her stuff. No touching her books, clothes or food, seriously she'll rip your head off. And if you try to touch any of her music without her permission- all hell breaks loose. Really, if you want to be able to hear again never touch and audiophile's music. Which leads in to her quick-temper. Yea one second you're chillaxing the next she'd chewing you out for changing the radio station. Sure it's a bit of a problem, but it's not as if she needs anger management, she just has a short fuse when it comes to her music. But really, can you blame her?
Andromeda is so honest and trustworthy that she often finds herself in the awkward position of knowing everything about everyone. For some reason, people instantly trust her with their deepest, darkest, and most painful secrets. Andromeda is not only a great listener, she's great at giving out solid advice - when asked, of course. People-pleasing Andromeda's biggest problem, frankly, is saying "no" to anyone or any cause that needs her. It's not that Andromeda is spineless. Andromeda simply likes to help others. In fact, she takes their need for her as a sign of flattery. This is usually when the problems begin. Andromeda is so busy helping and doing for others that she often finds herself running late, being behind, and staying up all hours. She constantly over commits herself and finds that she has planned far more than she is capable of doing. That's when she becomes nervous and anxious and begins doubting herself. Thankfully, Andromeda has the energy to sustain her many projects and demands. Endless creativity, long hours, and working in a hectic, fast-paced environment are perfect for the energetic Andromeda. She learned early on that listening is a great healer and the silent but successful nurturer.[/LIST] [align=center][IMG]http://img8.imageshack.us/img8/817/angelsapp4.png[/IMG][/align]

[b]OVERALL HISTORY:[/b] [LIST][align=center]"congratulations, mrs. black it's a girl!" the doctor held the baby out to her.
"what? no! there must be some mistake, i'm supposed to be having a boy." struggling to sit up druella didn't even bother taking the child.
"i'm sorry mrs. black but who ever told you that was clearly mistaken." the doctor pressed the child into her arms
"what will cygnus think?" she said horrified.
three days later when the child had finally been named did the father first gaze upon his second daughter. he did not even bother to hide his disappointment.
"i see it's another brat of a girl." he sneered.
"i'm sorry, cygnus, i tried i really did."
"she's of no use to me. just keep her quiet while i'm working."[/align]
when my mother went into labor my father was off on some business. she suffered through thirty-four hours of labor with me before i was born. my father did not come to see me or my mother until three days after my birth. he didn't hide his disappointment when he saw that i was born with the wrong equipment. my mother did everything my father ever wanted her to do expect the one thing that he saw as the most important- give him sons. he gave my mother a tacky emerald bracelet, told her to try harder next time for a boy and left. i'm assuming my mother was, at one point in time, a living person with feelings but these days from bending to my father's will she's become hard and cold. i could almost feel sorry for her but the way she treats me i just tolerate her. i have the life that many wish for, wealth, privilege, social class. but behind the façade lies the emptiness of a cold unloving family. my parents were an arranged marriage. one pure blood family marrying another. duty out ranked any measly idea of love and happiness. my childhood was a very strict and regimented one. to this day my parents are constantly baffled about the fact that i'm nothing like the rest of them, they're always saying i'm the bad apple. i have the life that many wish for, wealth, privilege, social class. but behind the façade lies the emptiness of a cold unloving family. my parents were an arranged marriage. one pure blood family marrying another. duty out ranked any measley idea of love and happiness.
[align=center]"andromeda black you will finish playing your scales or you will go to bed with out supper!"
"yes, mother." andromeda bit her lip as she placed tiny fingers on the piano keys.
"keep out of the garden in that dress, we've company coming over and they'll want to talk to you about your studies.
at only four andromeda knew when never to cross her mother, "yes, mother."
"quit, banging on that blasted piano!" her father yelled.
andromeda's eyes went wide, she bit her lip and curled her fingers into the folds of her dress.
"i'm sorry cygnus, she was just practicing."
"the one thing i asked of you when it was born was that you keep it quiet while i am working."
"of course. andromeda, go to your room. i expect you to recite the most recent chapter in your aritmancy book when i get up there."[/align]
do you know what it's like to be four years old and expected to read dante in italian and discuss it? to sit at the dinner table, when you weren't shuffled off somewhere else and are quizzed on arithmancy or converse about the renaissance -- in french naturally? it’s horrible. horrible! to have your own parents regard you as a thing, a rousing success of genetics. i hated it but what choice do you have when you're a child? you do what's expected of you. then you get in the habit and you keep right on doing it even when you're not a child. one day you look in the mirror and you see something so pathetic it hurts to look and you wonder, why not just end it all? maybe you fantasize about it, even obsess and you're clever, you're so damned clever that you can find the most effective, the most painless way to accomplish it… and of course the most tidy. but you're too intelligent, too well programmed to tolerate that kind of waste. It frightens you a little to realise you could actually do it, so you decide, being a practical person to study human behaviour, psychiatry instead, a much more productive outlet all in all. i was twelve, twelve when o first contemplated it, a dangerous age, all those hormones to deal with, a shock to the regimented system. you have to remind yourself that life, however miserable, is all you've got and go on with it. it’s easier to go on with it if you just close up, close off, lock yourself behind books and theories, credentials and degrees. until you realise that it's just a different form of suicide. i spent most of my life as a slave to my parents' whim or a slave to my own regimented life style. i became determined to change all that. i wanted, no, i needed to become the person i always wanted to be. so i gave up my cushy academics to take a job as an advice columnist at the daily prophet. i couldn't wallow in the fact that i couldn't make my life perfect. i needed to find a way to live my life. i've been with the newspaper for three years now, it's been the best three years of my life.
[align=center]"cissy! cissy! i got it!" andromeda waved the parchment over her head wildly.
"did you really?" narcissa asked in excitement.
"yes, yes, yes-- look!' andromeda squeezed in beside her sister on the stone bench, shoving the paper into her sister's tiny hands.
"oh it's so pretty and official looking! i want one!"
"i so hope i'm in ravneclaw, i want nothing more." andromeda beamed.
"you don't want to be a slytherin like bella and everyone else?" narcissa inquired quitely. she didn't want her father to over hear.
"no, of course not! i want to be a ravenclaw, they're the smartest."
"what will bella say if she heard you speak like that?"
"i don't care."
"narcissa! andromeda! i expect both of you to be washed and ready for dinner in fifteen minutes." druella called.[/align]
when i got my hogwarts letter i was thrilled to finally have an out. somewhere to go so that my parents aren't always watching me, waiting for me to mess up. i spent the whole train ride a bundle of nerves and waiting in line for the sorting hat was horrid! the sorting hat took nearly ten minutes to pick my house. it was choosing between ravenclaw and slytherin. i really wanted ravenclaw but the sorting hat blurt out slytherin. i barely ate anything that night and after the great feast i went in the bathroom to avoid my sister and cried for hours. but i needed to suck up, it wasn't a death sentence, i felt like i was a bit doomed, after all my sister had her eyes on my all the time but i worked hard on keeping away from her prying eyes. my open heart and gentle soul propels me to make friends with those her family deem unworthy. i was often cruelly punished for being friends with muggles and muggle borns. as a child and into my early years at hogwarts i was often magically banned to the black household, and at times only my bedroom. but as i've gotten older my parents have deemed me hopeless so they've given up on me. well, i wish they would. they're either ignoring me or scolding me. i'm sure going through hell would be easier but these days i'm just living my life, going through the motions. all that i love to do i have to do in secret. i'm having to sneak out of the house and have sirius help me to get to my dance classes, i know neither of my sisters will help me, i know that. but i can't give up on my dreams because of my family. keeping in contact with my friends is hard as well. i have to have sirius help me as well. other wise my family will find out and destroy my owl. i can't have them hurt an innocent animal that's not fair.
[align=center]"hello, there, is this seat taken?" andromeda asked, blushing profusely
"no it's not, you're welcome to have it."
"my name's andromeda mnemosyne katharine hélène black."
"ted tonks. wow that's a mouthful. mind if i call you andy?"
andromeda's eyes widened, she'd never had a nickname before. "i guess so."
"you're a first year aren't you?"
andromeda looked at the floor, "yes."
"what house do you want to be in?"
"ravenclaw! i would die if i was in the same house as my sister."
"what house is she in?"
"slytherin," andromeda wrinkled her nose. "the whole of my family's there. i don't want to be there. every one in there is evil and i'm not."
"i'm a hufflepuff, so obviously slytherins aren't that fond of us."
andromeda pondered for a moment, "i woulnd't mind being a hufflepuff, they're better than a slythergit any old day."
ted smiled, "thanks."[/align]
the one thing, well... person really. that keeps me sane and keeps me going is ted tonks. i met him on the train and we became friends instantly. i knew that he was a muggleborn but i didn't care, though keeping my relationship with him a secret from my sisters is extremely hard. it wasn't until my fourth year that we started dating and then we became just like one person, ted and andy, andy and ted. some of my friends are saying that we're the successful version of romeo and juliet. it's kind of sweet, really. just a few weeks ago my life took a huge step forward... ted proposed to me. i'm so thrilled! he just looked into my eyes and said 'marry me andromeda, i love you so much, i'll make you the happiest person in the world.' of course i burst into tears but managed to get out a 'yes.' he gave me his grandmother's ring. i can't wear it out in the open so i wear it on a chain that hangs to my waist underneath my clothes. but we must keep it on the down low for fear of my family doing something to hurt ted. so rather than wearing the ring on my finger i wear a thread around my finger one that i stole from his favorite shirts.”
[align=center]"oh, andy, you look so lovely!"
andromeda adjusted the finger tip veil and started at her reflection in the full length mirror, "you don't think it's too untraditional."
"no, andy you look perfect." her best friend picked a stray piece of lint off of andromeda's knee length white dress, "no one else but you could get away with anything so modern."
andromeda pressed a hand to her stomach, "i'm so nervous!" she said with a shaky laugh.
"what's to be nervous about? you're marrying the love of your life. ted's so sweet, you're sure he doesn't have some family realtive you could hook me up with?" her friend inquired.
andromeda laughed, "no, he's one of a kind and he's all mine."
her friends both pressed a kiss to her cheek, "we wish you both the best of luck." the three of them held hands, the first wedding among them, life was going fast.[/align]
my final year at hogwarts was one filled with anticipation. over christmas break i moved all of my things out of my parents house and into the town house ted's parents had left him. i didn't even have to bother to charm the door shut, my parents didn't care enough about me to even pretend to snoop about in it. the day i left hogwarts i hopped off the train and into ted's arms. i didn't even say goodbye to cissy. though i had told her what i was going to do i hadn't mentioned that i was doing it the very day we got home. so without a back wards glance i moved in with ted and started my career in psychology. one month later we were married. i had my two best friends as bride's maids and everything was so perfect! of course i didn't want to spin my wheels at home being a wife so i started a career at the daily prophet. i'm currently the advice columnist. i'm rather fond of it, helping people out with their problems. i mean i could be a psychologist and help people more in depth but i don't want to charge people three hundred dollars an hour for some psycho babble, this is real. it's honest.
[align=center]"congratulations mrs. tonks! it's a girl."
andromeda stared in awe at the wonder of her daughter. she took the child from the doctor to cradle in her arms. her eyes grew misty as she lifted them to ted's face, "look at her, ted, she's so perfect."
they both grinned at each other like fools, "we did great andy, she's as close to perfect as anything."
andy looked in her daughters serious blue eyes. "nymphadora eloise cissa tonks, you are safe, you are loved and you are wise."
ted looked at her quizzically, "nymphyadora?"
andy smiled, "we'll call her dory,"[/align] [/LIST] [align=center][IMG]http://img11.imageshack.us/img11/4097/angelsapp5.png[/IMG][/align]
