APPEARANCE

PHYSICAL DESCRIPTION: Eliza is of average height but is delicately beautiful with striking eyes and smooth, caramel-colored skin.
PERSONAL STYLE: Eliza likes to wear nice clothes made of good materials, rarely walking about in t-shirts or anything else that casual. She's also a fan of oversized jewelry.

PERSONALITY

LIKES: Chocolate, trophies and awards, attention, class, the library, Quidditch (another opportunity to earn trophies!), cats, butterbeer, visits to Hogsmeade, dancing (yet another opportunity to show off)
DISLIKES: Being told she's wrong, people not listening to her, getting bad marks on her exams, spiders, disorder and uncleanliness, laundry, wild behavior
DEMENTOR: Her parents screaming at each other when she was younger. She remembers hiding in her room with her baby sister Divya, crying as they shouted the most awful things at each other. It was then that she realized that her parents might not really love each other.
BOGGART: Spiders. She hates dusty cupboards and the curtains where she knows they're lurking. Anytime she sees a spider she screams.
PATRONUS: Winning her biggest award third year for Civic Duties to School after saving a boy who was drowning in the late. True, the giant squid did most of the work, but she got all of the praise and attention.
ERISED: A high-paying job at the Ministry, perhaps even Minister of Magic
GENERAL DESCRIPTION: Eliza is determined to be the top student in all of her classes, even if that means crushing all of the other students around her. She's not particularly mean, but her personality comes off as a bit abrasive at times. She's won many school awards, so many that whenever she's presented with one her classmates sigh heavily and clap unenthusiastically. It's something they've grown used to. She gives in a bit too easily to her cravings, yet despite all of the chocolate she eats she still manages to remain thin.

BIOGRAPHICAL INFORMATION

SIBLINGS: Divya Kathleen Daruka (12)
OTHER FAMILY: None
BIOGRAPHY: Phoebe Elizabeth Daruka was born on August 3, 1972 to a young mother who was quite ready to get that child out of her. The first four years of her life were spent alone and happy with her parents, then after her little sister Divya was born things became a bit sour. Her parents started arguing over things like money and how to arrange the sitting room furniture. Eliza blamed Divya for many years for how awful things became at home, since all the arguing started soon after she was born. One evening after their bedtime her parents were shouting louder than ever, saying the most hateful things. The girls held each other and cried, not knowing why two people who loved each other could be so hateful.

Eliza first showed signs of magic when she was six years old. It was during her first lesson with Professor Merrythought, a retired Hogwarts professor who now spent his days educating pre-Hogwarts students on the basics needed. He was telling her about maths and Eliza sat there, her chin smooshed into the palm of her hand, when she pondered how much better life would be if she was outside. He bored her to the point that she did end up outside, hanging from a branch on a tree and completely baffled as to how she got there. Her parents were thrilled to find that their daughter wasn't a squib, especially since Peter's Aunt Ruth had been one. Not one to be shown up, two-year-old Divya had dropped something from her high chair and summoned it back up the next day. Eliza was not pleased.

Her first four years at Hogwarts were the happiest for Eliza, who enjoyed going to classes and beating all of her classmates to be the at the top of her class, but there were still one or two students who managed to take the top spot from her. She didn't particularly like them. Then her fifth year came along and Divya came to the castle. Divya was sorted into Ravenclaw, so they didn't have to see each other all the time, and she was much further behind in classes that Eliza didn't feel threatened by her anymore. It greatly helped their relationship, although Divya's friends find her older sister to be a bit of a snot. What do first years know, anyway? Eliza's now entering into her sixth year and just received her O.W.L. scores: Outstandings in everything but Transfiguration, her trickiest subject. She was determined to work harder in that class to achieve the highest level N.E.W.T. score.
