name: Carra Fennely

age, etc: 16, born March 19 in Belfast, Ireland. Is in her second year at the academy.

magic
She has a form of persuasion magic that basically really, really helps her up on stage. It allows her to completely sell herself to an audience, and make them believe she really means what she's saying. Her magic isn't just limited to performances, though. She can use it in regular conversation to make people believe her. So if she was acting sad and used her magic on you, you'd probably forget that she's an amazinng actress and actually believe her. This doesn't work on some people, obviously, but it does on most.

family
    parents- Her father, Jonah, is a well-known Broadway Actor. Her mother, Sandra is a TV therapist, with a number of published self-help books. Carra doesn't have any opinion on them, because they're not really a huge part of her life.
    siblings- One older brother, Carl, who's in his senior year. They act like they hate eachother, but there is actually so much love between them it's ridiculous. They just don't like people to know it.

appearance
    hair- Carra's hair is absolutely gorgeous. It's a coppery color that appears to have golden streaks in it when she's in the sun. It's wavy and falls a few inches past her shoulders.
    eyes- green! I know, I know. Shocker, right? Well, her eyes are dark green, and sort of heavily-lidded. She has thin, arching eyebrows and fairly short eyelashes. Her eyes really aren't all that remarkable.
    features- Soft and lovely, basically. Lips are a little thin, nose is fairly nondescript. She has the pale Irish thing going on and oh yes, there are freckles.
    extras- Carra is a little bit of an accessory whore. She always has to have earrings, necklaces, bracelets, whatever on no matter what she's wearing. Her ears are pierced twice, and she has a tattoo of the comedy/tragedy drama masks on her left shoulderblade.
    clothing- Usually fairly casual. Jeans, camis, sweaters. She does, however, love dressing up and owns more dresses than anyone should, because you have to look good to be on Broadway. Or so she says.

personality
    Carra's personality can seem very overwhelming to people who aren't used to being around her. She's the type of girl that everyone either loves or hates, with no middle ground. A good word to describe her would be "dynamic." She's a brilliant actress, and even in regular conversation it's hard to tell what's genuine and what is just an act.
    She can be a huuuge, huge snob sometimes. Not really in a bitchy sort of way, but more like "...did she really just say that?" She prides herself on her acting skills and has a very low tolerance for people with no talent. Sometimes she can can do or say things that are just plain mean-spirited without even realizing it. She has a very strong, very bold personality, and her friends sometimes have to tell her to back down. Also? Attentionwhore to the maxcore.

strengths and weaknesses
    strengths- Acting is obviously a huge one, as is her form of magic. She knows how to get what she wants, and she's not above using her magic to help her out.
    weaknesses- Her personality can be a bit too overwhelming sometimes. It's hard to tell when she's acting and when she's being serious. She scorns people who don't have as much talent as she does.

likes and dislikes
    likes- being on stage. boys. fine art. high fashion. Broadway. film. anything artsy. models. dressing up.
    dislikes- no-talent kids. sneakers. being stuck indoors. people playing with her hair. most sports.

history
Fairly nondescript. Carra was born and raised in Ireland. When she was ten her parents decided to move to the States for whatever reason. They've been living in New York City ever since, because Jonah is on broadway and stuff. The Fennely's hired a tutor for Carra as soon as her magic was apparent, and shipped her off to the academy as soon as she was old enough.
