tell me all about your pesky behaviour !
[/color][/center]personality , Having been raised in a proper pureblood family, even though Caren is much different from her cousin, she still holds herself in high regards. Always dressing to fit every occasion, there is rarely ever a hair or thread out of place on the young witch. She moves with a certain daintiness that makes her appear even smaller than she is, which is certainly saying something since she's generally a very small girl. She is generally speaking, very well behaved and almost never out of line. She would never dream of talking back to an adult, not only for fear of what her father would do if she did, but because she considers it to be rude.
Still, Caren isn't the typical pureblood stereotype. A bit of an airhead at times, she's a very forgetful girl and will sometimes forget which class she has to go to, even. She isn't afraid to say whats on her mind and sometimes, that can be a bad thing since she has all the common musings of an airhead. She's a very friendly girl, though her quirkiness about her can make her often hard to get along with or, especially, understand. Loyal to her friends, Caren hasn't turned on anyone since her first year at Hogwarts. She doesn't usually judge based on house, however, Gryffindors get under her skin and she can be rather snarky when in contact with one. Caren is a hard worker and despite not being the sharpest tool in the shed, isn't afraid to tackle any kind of work head on, especially hands on work. She's also very patient. Many attribute this to her dizziness, though.
Despite all that, she is often rather stuck up and if she feels you're beneath her, she won't be afraid to let you know. Raised to believe that only those of the 'proper' kind are worth her time, she holds some believes more commonly held by snakes. She doesn't despise Muggle borns and Muggles to the point of murder, but that doesn't mean she cares to spend much time with them, either. She will associate with one or two if it benefits her, but she won't hesitate to let them know her family is above them. Many say she's a bit snobbish and that it's her only personality flaw. She doesn't think she's too snobbish, however, and won't hesitate to befriend any of the other students. As long as they're not Muggle born.

boggarts , Caren's biggest fear is fire. Having been through a fire when she was a young girl and watching the family manor burn to the ground left her terrified of even the smallest flame for the rest of her life.
flaws ,
-A scar on her back from being burned by the fire.
-Paralyzing fear of even the smallest of flames.
-Her VERY small stature. She sometimes seems fragile.
what about the story of your spiffy life ?
[/color][/center]history , Born to Coreen and Kevin Barker, Caren always had everything a girl could want. Her family was certainly well-to-do, having inherited the fortunes of their parents before them, and theirs before them. But that didn't stop her father from working hard to get where he was. From the very beginning, he was a successful man, excelling in everything he did. He moved through the Ministry at lightning pace, having a high position in it by the time he found out his wife was pregnant. When Caren was born, they'd already doubled their wealth. Her mother, having been a healer before having a daughter, soon quit her job to raise the family she'd always wanted. The Barker's couldn't've been happier.
The Barker's have always been supremacists and support the Dark Lord through and through. Many of them were Death Eaters before the birth of Harry and after Voldemorts "fall", many of them went into hiding. Caren's parents, however, did not. They were wise enough to know that the Dark Lord wouldn't go down that easily and that he'd be back in due time. They raised Caren to have believes similar to their own, teaching her from an early age that only those pure of blood were worthy enough for her. She listened to their lessons like a good girl and from an early age, developed a sense of self being, so to speak.
The Barker's had been a long line of Slytherins and Ravenclaws until Caren started her first year of Hogwarts and was sorted into Hufflepuff. Her parents weren't disappointed, however, putting no emphasis on house as long as their daughter grew up with the right morals. She made friends right away, making sure they were the "right kind of people". Still, even to people she wouldn't otherwise like, she tried to be as friendly as possible, finding that rudeness was akin to immaturity. She struggled in some of her classes, not understanding all the questions being asked of her. But she some how always managed to pass each year.
The Summer of her fifth year, the original Barker Manor caught fire while they were away. No one knows who set the place up in flames, or how they got the location, for that matter, but when the family returned from Diagon Alley, it was burning. Caren, in a panic, bolted for the place in an attempt to save her dog who was stuck inside. Her owl and her cat had already found their way out. She saved her pet, but burned herself in the process. She spent quite a while at St Mungos afterward and has since been afraid of fire. The Barker's bought a new manor in Ireland and continued life as if it hadn't happened. With the return of the Dark Lord, their family is trying to find its place in the war. Her parents, once loyal Death Eaters, now remain neutral, as does she. For now.
