tell me all about your pesky behaviour !
[/color][/center]personality , Astoria has a fierce and dangerous temper. She also has paranoid tendencies and is easily distracted when riled. Astoria has always been something of a loose cannon. While not entirely unhinged, she still needs something to channel that raw power into. She is not a stupid woman by any means, but when push comes to shove, Astoria is driven by instinct. While some people use logic to deduce their feelings, she uses her feelings to guide her logic. She makes a snap decision in her gut and formulates an argument from there. One downside among many to this is that she's prone to tunnel vision and an absolute inability to comprehend an opposing point of view. She'll argue till she's blue in the face and never accept that she's wrong--of course, push her too hard, and one may find their organs on the outside of their body. This also leads to a tendency to not think things through; she can be fatally impulsive. There are moments of clear reason, but she is still quite bullheaded and very unpredictable. There are certain sore spots that tend to trigger her moments of fanaticism and cause her to blow her top--most of those sore spots tend to involve dark magic and all related matters, like bloodline. She also relies solely on emotions and instinct when she is involved in a certain situations.
She is a rather atypical Slytherin in the fact that manipulation just doesn't come naturally to her. She can't talk her way out of a sticky spot, but in its place are brute force and intimidation. Astoria is not a tall, imperious girl, but she has a certain presence and can be quite scary when she wants to be, and she knows how to get her way--she just gets it directly. Some of her fellow housemates can be rather passive aggressive, but she's simply aggressive. She's prone to threatening people and many of her statements carry an unsaid "or else." That isn't always necessary, however, the level of confidence and conviction she has gives her the appearance of a natural leader, and some weaker-minded Slytherin get the impression that 'she must know what she's talking about. To people who don’t know her or members of other house, she seems to be out there and off her rocker. Astoria takes being a Greengrass seriously and to heart. But don’t let all you know fool you. There is a softer side to her although even she does not seem to know what that is. There are many times where she has tried to relax and act her age but being so much like her mother, this little 18 year old seems much older.

mirror of eriseds , Standing in front of a grand manor with a handsome husband and two beautiful children .Also to maybe be her own boss and have her own business as well.
boggarts , Astoria’s biggest fear is dying alone. Sure she has everything a person could ask for but now that she is out of school some friends are getting married others are traveling and she spends her time in her room designing. Wit Draco’s commitment fear she is worried she will die old and alone.
flaws ,
Short temper

what about the story of your spiffy life ?
[/color][/center]history , Astoria was born on a sunny day where a fresh blanket of snow had just covered the lawns of her home. From the second she took that first breath and gave that first scream, Astoria let it be known she was not one to be messed with. Alphard & Lysette already had one child a boy named Daphne .who was a year older then his sister. Lysette had always wanted a little girl, and this day her wish came true. As Astoria grew her evil and dark tendencies started to show. As early as the age of two this toddler could use magic to cause harm. One day her older sister Daphne was teasing her by pulling Astoria’s hair and calling her a mistake and that caused her to snap, well little Astoria got a hold of her moms’ want and flicked it. A flash of purple light jetted from the wand and caused what looked like a huge wad of gum to cover her sisters hair and start to tighten around her face causing the girl to not be able to breath. She sat there on the floor with an evil smirk on her face.
Then finally came the time for Astoria to attend school. Alphard & Lysette already knew where they were going to send their little princess; to Hogwarts. The sorting hat barely touched her head when it yelled out “Slytherin ”. That first year Astoria mad her mark by becoming noticed in DADA and Potions. She had an unnatural affection towards poisons. Astoria embodied the perfect Slytherin attitude and by her second year was well established as one the best in her house in Potions. Her third year at Hogwarts had gone just as much like the last two. By the time her fourth year started she had been established as the Slytherin girl not to be messed with. But that’s when it all started to go to hell and fast. The great war had started and witches and wizards of all ages were being hurt or killed. It did not matter what age , Astoria lost some housemates in it all and when she went home that summer well she didn’t want to leave her room. Her fifth year was the same as the others but Astoria was rather happy she got prefect. The beginning of her sixth year began like all the others. The stupid dinner, and the hat ceremony. Astoria still had one year left in school and really never had a so called boyfriend . Now in her seventh year Astoria has become some what colder then she used to be and is also throwing rules out the window more then normal. She just wants this time at Hogwarts to end so she can get out and live her life and maybe fund a guy who can put up with her. She had wrapped up her schooling career by becoming head girl but also catching the eye of someone who well she had a crush on in the past, Draco Malfoy.
Sure he was three years older then Astoria but something clicked and after not too long the two were seen attending the right social functions and making things seem like both their families were staying on the side of good. But at times he seemed distant and rather just playing a part and not letting out any true emotion. Astoria began to get the feeling she was only there as a show piece something pretty to be on his arm so after on and off dating for two years she was rather close to calling the whole thing off and for a while Astoria did. She didn’t stop going to parties but she did concentrate more on what she wanted because Astoria wanted to prove she was more then just a pretty face. I mean she had been very skilled in potions and went as far as receiving awards while at school. But she had only graduated a year ago and still nothing from Draco about where they were going with their relationship. So for now she waits but does not know how much more longer she can.
