NAME Dakota Xenakis-Hart
YEAR Fifth
AGE Fifteen
GENDER Female
HEIGHT 5'8"
SEXUAL ORIENTATION Pansexual
APPEARANCE A girl of Hispanic and Greek heritage, Dakota has light brown skin and straight, shoulder-length black hair. Her eyes are green, a trait she inherited from her mom. She is tall and slender for her age, standing at 5'8" and weighing right around 100 pounds. Almost always has a smile on her face.
TRAITS/PERSONALITY If someone looked up the word loyal in the dictionary, it would merely show a picture of Dakota as the definition. Once she's made friends with someone, she will gladly stick with them even if they happen to change and no longer share similar interests. Extroverted and friendly, she prefers to be around other people rather than to be alone. However, she is painfully shy and often feels awkward around new people, something she covers up well by talking excessively and cracking cheesy jokes. Kota is also adventurous, never one to back down from experiencing new things.

HISTORY Born the first and only child to a Muggle teenage mother, Dakota's life was unusual right from the start. It was just the two of them during her first few years, bouncing around from one British town to the next and never quite settling down in one spot for very long. She would ask about her father from the moment she was old enough to know other kids usually had two parents, but the only answers she would ever get from her mother was, "He wasn't like us," or, "I'll tell you when you're older."
By the time Dakota's seventh birthday rolled around, she got her two parents- and even if it wasn't the conventional mother-father pairing, she was more than happy with the woman who would eventually legally adopt her.
That was also the year that Lesi sat her down and finally told her about her dad. That he was a pureblooded wizard, that she also had an older half-brother who was a wizard, too. Dakota didn't buy it at first, thinking it to be another one of her mom's strange, outlandish tales, but... Weird things always had happened around her. And to further surprise her, Alana explained that she was a witch as well, showing her a few small spells with a wand she'd produced from her pocket.
Dakota still found it hard to believe that she, herself, was a witch though. She couldn't do any sort of magic like Alana could! She didn't even have her own wand... But both her mothers worked on making her believe them, telling her that when she turned eleven, she would finally be able to go to a magical school and learn. And as the years leading up to her eleventh birthday passed, her anticipation grew stronger and stronger.
She was excited beyond belief when an owl finally came that summer, her Hogwarts acceptance letter in tow. And once September rolled around, Dakota headed off to Hogwarts to start her first year. And every year since then has been absolutely magical.
