Subject: Re: First Stage: Application Wed Jan 02 2008, 11:17

(First off--yay! This sounds like so much fun!)

1. Because it sounds like fun, I love creatures of all kinds. If they are the huggable sort of creature, then they're lovely. If they're the sneaky sort of creature, then they're funny and annoying, but in a good way. And if they're horribly nasty and Dark...well then, they're fascinating. Also, it'll be like having a pet! Except even better, in a way!

2. What quality to you believe to be most important?

b) Loyalty--Yep, loyalty above all. In that regard I am a true Huffie. I would never betray a secret if specifically asked not to, and I like knowing that my friends wouldn't betray me, either. I find it important to have people around me that I can trust.

3. Australia! I've never been. Home of the Antipodean Opaleye dragon! Oh yeah and the Billywig.

4. Niffler. A huggable, friendly treasure hunter! Need I explain?

5. I'm not sure if this question is asking what 'creature' scares me the most or what scares me in general. I'll go with the general one, then, and change it later if necessary: I'm scared of not being independent and in control. Of course this means I'm scared of other people manipulating me, but most of all I'm scared of manipulating myself. For example, if I had a multiple personality that got up in middle of the night and went around killing people...*shiver* But that's the most extreme version of self-manipulation.

6. My wand. Can't manage without it!

7. Probably not cool to say this, but my mom. She's not perfect, but really awesome (and not just I think so) and if I'm like her when I'm her age, I wouldn't complain. Though of course, I'll try and work on those imperfections. First Stage: Application Devil

But then, I've got my own imperfections.

8. Aragorn from LotR. xD

9. A winged horse. I prefer a Granian.

Subject: Re: First Stage: Application Wed Jan 02 2008, 16:11

Application

1. Why would you like to apply for The Creature Chronicles?

I would like to apply for the Creature Chronicles because it seems like a wonderful oppertunity to learn and have fun at the same time. The housepoints are a bonus too!

2. What quality to you believe to be most important?

a) Bravery
b) Loyalty
c) Knowledge
d) Cunning

I think loyalty is most important because if your loyal it can rub off on people and make them want to be better. In addition, if people know you can be trusted they can teach you tings and tell you secrets that are more valueable in your life than anything else.

3. Which continent are you most interested in visiting?

This is a toss-up between Austrailia and Europe. However, I would have to say Austrailia because it is so foreign to me and something that seems like a huge adventure that I want to be a part of so much.

4. Which magical creature is your favourite?

I would have to say the phoenix is my favorite magical creature because of it's loyalty and serene personality. I lov ehow it cares and yet is wise at the same time.

5. What scares you the most?

death.

6. If you were to undertake a quest, what do you think would be most important to take with you?

A journal so I could write down my thoughts and opiions everyday to look back on later and help other people who are not as fortunate as me learn from my experience.

7. Which real-life person do you admire the most?

I would have to say JK Rowling. I am such a huge fan of her it's not funny. I love how she has so much imagination and hope even though she hasn't had a perfect life. It goes to show you can do anything you set your mind to.

8. Which literary or film hero do you admire the most?

This was really hard but I would have to say Elphaba from Wicked. This is because she is a hero but not in the common sense of the word. She is regarded as wicked and evil but her heart is so huge and she has wonderful intentions. Also, even though people constantly pick at her she stands tall and proud and she is not afraid to be herself.

9. Finally, which magical creature do you believe would be the most valuable to you in a near-death situation?

the phoenix.

Subject: Re: First Stage: Application Wed Jan 02 2008, 16:40

1. Why would you like to apply for The Creature Chronicles?

Is my aim in Hogwarts Experience to do and try all that I can. I want to developp my magic, my skills, my abilities. I want to grow into an extraordinary powerful wizard.

This quest fulfills both of that goals. I also like dangerous and adventurous things so this will be also a lot of fun for me. And I dont get tired of saying that CoMC is my favourite class.

2. What quality to you believe to be most important?

d) Cunning

Bravery will get you killded. Loyalty will get you killed. Knowledge will get you killed. Cunning will save your life!

Let's see. IF you're too brave then your too stubborn to know when to run and you'll fight untill you're dead. And I prefer to live find a way to pass the obstacle and return.

Loyalty will make you die for someone and risk yourself for another person. Who wins? The one you saved. I prefer to be alone thant to die because of someone else.

Knowledge. I was tempted to choose this one but the truth is sometimes knolwedge is not enough you need wit, cunningness to overcome certain situations, it doenst matter if you have the knolwdege but dont' know how to use it.

For all of that I choose Cunning better be an alive fool than a brave dead fool.

3. Which continent are you most interested in visiting?

The immensitude of Asia. From countries filled with pride in their old and rich cultures like China and India to the immensitude of Russia and the icing lands of Siberia.

4. Which magical creature is your favourite?

My favourite creature is the Manticore, there's no other creature that combines deathlyness with intelligence and strenght.

5. What scares you the most?

Failure and be condemned to an ordinary life without having put myself in the History books.

6. If you were to undertake a quest, what do you think would be most important to take with you?

My wand, a few healing herbs and potions, if possible some notes on the place where the quest is going to be taken and my sharp mind.

7. Which real-life person do you admire the most?

Alexander The Great. By the age of 25 he had conquered most of the known world. He was a brilliant man capable of leading so many. His conquests are still today known. Eternal Glory!

8. Which literary or film hero do you admire the most?

Raistlin Majere the greatest wizard to have ever lived! The Wizard who dared to want to be a God! And actually defied the Gods! Ambiton with power and knowledge a true wonder!

9. Finally, which magical creature do you believe would be the most valuable to you in a near-death situation?

This is a really tricky question you see. A manticore is mostly likely to help you to dont even get near the 'near-death' experince as it's so powerful few are the beings capable of threatenign it. Also as the Manticore is capable of human speech and is intelligent it'd be able to go call for help or carry me somewhere safe.

Now if for example I'm wounded and near death, a Phoenix'd be the perfect creature with its healing tears besides the loyalty to keep protecting you if you're down.

Subject: Re: First Stage: Application Wed Jan 02 2008, 19:28

Application

1. Why would you like to apply for The Creature Chronicles?

I would like to apply for The Creature Chronicles because it sounds like lots of fun and it's a great opportunity to gain experience with various magical creatures.

2. What quality to you believe to be most important?

a) Bravery
b) Loyalty
c) Knowledge
d) Cunning

3. Which continent are you most interested in visiting?
Europe

4. Which magical creature is your favourite?
Umm.... that's a hard choice. Probably.... a crup!

5. What scares you the most?
In terms of creatures: *shudders* Do dementors count? Well, excluding those, I'm extremely frightened of lethifolds and quintapeds. In general terms: Complete and total chaos, death, and blindness.

6. If you were to undertake a quest, what do you think would be most important to take with you?
Umm... I'm going to say... a wand.

7. Which real-life person do you admire the most?
I admire a number of people and I can't really choose who I admire most. First my mother, because she's altogether wonderful for being able to put up with me. She's an extremely hard worker, never one for procrastination, and is the reason why I actually do my math homework. Secondly, Libba Bray. I admire her because she's a wonderful author, and overcame a horrible crash, surgeries, and family issues to become so. Thirdly, I admire J.K.Rowling because she has become a hugely successful author and she, like Libba Bray, has overcome great difficulties in the process.

8. Which literary or film hero do you admire the most?
Elizabeth Bennet (Darcy) from Pride and Prejudice by Jane Austen.

9. Finally, which magical creature do you believe would be the most valuable to you in a near-death situation?
I believe a hippogriff would be the most valuable because they can fly, so they can either fly you away from danger or go off to find help, and they can help you fight/escape from the near-death situation because of their talons.

Subject: Re: First Stage: Application Wed Jan 02 2008, 22:04

Application

1. Why would you like to apply for The Creature Chronicles?
First of all, it sounds really fun and a cool thing to participate in. Second, I try to participate in as much things as I can - so here I am!

2. What quality to you believe to be most important?

c) Knowledge, since you need to have knowledge to be cunning. and if you're not smart, even if you're as loyal as a lapdog, that won't do you any good since you can't help - same goes for bravery.

3. Which continent are you most interested in visiting?
Antarctica! I went to all of them except this one...and it'll be cool when people aske "What did you do over vacation?"

4. Which magical creature is your favourite?
Dragons

5. What scares you the most?
death of someone I care about

6. If you were to undertake a quest, what do you think would be most important to take with you?
my wand provides everything...essential for the time being

7. Which real-life person do you admire the most?
my cousins and my parents since they accomplished a lot in their life and I want to be like them

8. Which literary or film hero do you admire the most?
Tally from Pretties/Specials

9. Finally, which magical creature do you believe would be the most valuable to you in a near-death situation?
Phoenix so I could escape or be healed

Subject: Re: First Stage: Application Wed Jan 02 2008, 23:48

1. Why would you like to apply for The Creature Chronicles?

I'm intrigued by the class, which I think will offer a unique experience.

2. What quality to you believe to be most important?

a) Bravery
b) Loyalty
c) Knowledge
d) Cunning

B.) Loyalty- bravery, knowledge and cunning are all useful traits, but if you are loyal, then it stands to reason you will have friends that are loyal to you. And in the end there are times when you simply need the help of others.

3. Which continent are you most interested in visiting?

Europe, the history and magic fascinates me.

4. Which magical creature is your favourite?
Pegasus, after all what's better than a horse or a broomstick? A flying horse!

5. What scares you the most?

Myself, because fear comes from deep inside. If I can master my emotions then I can accomplish anything.

6. If you were to undertake a quest, what do you think would be most important to take with you?

Wand, mositurizer and lip gloss are all I need for any task!

7. Which real-life person do you admire the most?

My husband, Aaron, because he not only puts up with me, but genuinely seems to enjoy doing so. When I'm all crazy and emotional he is the picture of calm. He has a way of keeping a cool head in even the most stressful of sitituations.

8. Which literary or film hero do you admire the most?

Sydney Bristow from Alias, cause she not only kicks booty, but also manages to be a strong and sensitive woman. Who kicks serious booty. XD

9. Finally, which magical creature do you believe would be the most valuable to you in a near-death situation?

A dragon, because I believe that if I could befriend and tame a dragon then I wouldn't actually find myself in any near death sitituations.

Subject: Re: First Stage: Application Thu Jan 03 2008, 04:44

1. Why would you like to apply for The Creature Chronicles?

Because it sounds like fun, and I really like to do these kinds of things. Plus it is a great learning oppurnity that doesn't always come about inj this manner. Also, I think the housepoints motivate me slightly too. :D

2. What quality to you believe to be most important?

a) Bravery

You need to be brave to be able to face things, and a lot of times I know that if maybe I had a bit more bravery I'd be able to face things and not be as afraid of them.

3. Which continent are you most interested in visiting?

Europe, it just has so many amazing things and countries. A lot of history also takes place there.

4. Which magical creature is your favourite?

The kneazle, it's just really an incredibly smart kitty and I love kitties XD

5. What scares you the most?

The fact that once I die, I could be forgotten so easily. I don't wanna be forgotten the day after I die, I wanna be remembered. Not by everyone, but just by a few people.

6. If you were to undertake a quest, what do you think would be most important to take with you?

A wand... cause well you can't do hardly anything without it.

7. Which real-life person do you admire the most?

I admire my mother the most, because she works increadibly hard to raise my siblings and I, and on top of that allows her mother to live with her so that she [my mom] can take care of her [my grandma]. Plus she sacrifices so much for me to be able to do what I want to do.

8. Which literary or film hero do you admire the most?

I'd have to say Amanda from the Wicked quartet. Although she isn't the main heroine, she sticks to her cousin's side and handles a lot of tough things, like the fact that they lost her twin sister to the bad guys, becoming a witch, and having her mother die all without becoming this wonder-if-she-has-a-soul type of person like her cousin Holly. She manages to be herself and save the day at the same time.

9. Finally, which magical creature do you believe would be the most valuable to you in a near-death situation?

Probably a Thestral, because it could get you out of a situation and fly you away, plus they also wouldn't be able to be seen by a lot of people, unless they're death eaters, but whatever. XD

Subject: Re: First Stage: Application Thu Jan 03 2008, 07:09

Application

1. Why would you
like to apply for The Creature Chronicles?
Well not only because of the house points it will bring me but because it looks
really fun and exciting. I like to try different things and something like this
has never been done within care of magical creatures at HE. I would also like to
see what I could come up with within this. It would also help with my creative ability
and further my skills within HE.

2. What quality
to you believe to be most important?

a) Bravery
b) Loyalty
c) Knowledge
d) Cunning

Knowledge

Now it was hard to chose from all
of them but I think knowledge would get me the furthest. To be brave is okay
but you must know when being that much brave is stupid. And so with loyalty it
would kill you. You also need a lot of knowledge to be cunning and I think
being cunning would be lonely.
Having the right knowledge could
also save your life for example you may know a vast variety of spells which
could get you out of any tricky situation.
Looking at the options again it
shows me that they are the quality’s of the four houses and did we really see
anything horribly bad befall a Ravenclaw which holds the trait of knowledge.
Look at all the Gryffindor’s that died. And then look at Cedric Diggory who
died with Hufflepuff. And not to mention the vast number of Slytherins that
have died who hold the trait of cunning. But throughout the series the
Ravenclaw’s stayed safe.

3. Which
continent are you most interested in visiting?[
Europe, I know
that it is my own continent but I would like to travel around the rest of Europe to see how the countries in the same continent
live. There civilisations are much the same to the British one but I would like
to see how it compares with being so close to our culture.
Other
continents such as Asia scare me. I have heard
so many bad stories from there that to explore it I would constantly think of
the danger that could befall be whilst I was in that continent. So therefore I
would like to go for the developed safeish part of the world with Europe.

4. Which magical
creature is your favourite?
A dragon, they
are extremely well know within the muggle world and would always fascinate me.
There is so much to learn about them even more than most magical creatures and
the danger of being close to one would thrill me though I would always know
when it would be safe to go.A dragon has
such amazing magical History that it is amazing that everyone does not want to
study them. Though I guess that the fear would keep you away.

5. What scares
you the most?
Failure, not the fact that I don’t always win everything but the fact
that I could just a pathetic nothing living on my own with 13 cats. To be that
would be a failure in life. I fear failing to live up to peoples expectations
let alone my own.
I know I am not the brightest or
most dedicated student but I fear that I will fail in everything and never
achieve the things that I could have.

6. If you were
to undertake a quest, what do you think would be most important to take with
you?
Well apart from the obvious things
such as my wand and glasses. A musical playing system such as an mp3 player or
an ipod. Because in times of stress and fear music will always calm your nerves
down and help you think straight so if you are stuck in a situation where you
are trapped to turn on your mp3 player and listen to some music that would calm
you and help you think straight could be your key to getting out of there or
defeating someone.

7. Which
real-life person do you admire the most?
Though I don’t know anyone who fits
this I admire the people who live through hard ship or child abuse. Or have
seen some horrible things and they come through it. To me they are the strong
people the ones that truly should be admired. Or the people who live in the 3^rd
world countries where they have nothing but they still face each day with a
smile. They keep going unlike most people who would give up. I know depression
is something you cannot get rid of but I admire the people who stay strong in a
time of need. And look to the future and they are the ones who have a better
life.

8. Which
literary or film hero do you admire the most?
Albus Dumbledore, yeah I know a bit
silly seems as it’s a Harry Potter site but sometimes when I am going through something
hard I think WWDD. What would Dumbledore do. Hes not perfect just like all of
us and he makes mistakes. He was even gay which in the eyes of many people is
something not excusable. But to me that just makes him even more great. He
thought that people should have second chances and he helped every single
person that asked for it. He gave people like Hagrid a home and job he gave his
loyalty to everyone. I believe that if voldemort had said he wanted to be good
that Dumbledore would have taken him under his wing.
He stuck by all the people he knew
even ones he had only just met and gave everyone the benefit of the doubt. He
was strange and eccentric but an amazing man that we all grew to love and his
mistakes just made him more and more loveable.

9. Finally,
which magical creature do you believe would be the most valuable to you in a
near-death situation?
My favourite
magical creature a dragon. As not only could I jump on there back and fly away
to safety but they could bash down or fire my enemies and they are strong and
hard to defeated. A dragon would be the most amazing ally of all the magical
creatures. I also feel that they would be extremely loyal to someone that they
trust and I think they reason that dragons attack people is because they are
scared.

Subject: Re: First Stage: Application Sat Jan 05 2008, 02:52

Application

1. Why would you like to apply for The Creature Chronicles?
I have always been fascinated by magical creatures, and I think that it would be a fun and rewarding experience if I were given this opportunity. I think this would also give me a chance work on my creativity, which is something that's always important to me.

2. What quality to you believe to be most important?

a) Bravery
b) Loyalty
c) Knowledge
d) Cunning

I value all the characteristics mentioned, however, I think that one can never accumulate enough knowlege. I think that once we cease to learn, we lose sight of our purpose in life. How can we grow if we don't attain a greater understanding of the world and those who inhabit it.

3. Which continent are you most interested in visiting?
That would probably be Antarctica. I think it's a beautiful and misunderstood place. I would love to find out what sort of creatures inhabit this region. I also like the thought of educating the world about a place that most think of as desolate or even frightening.

4. Which magical creature is your favourite?
I pretty much like them all, but my favorite would most likely be the puffskein. I know it's silly, but they're cute. There, I said it. I like them because they're cuddly. It's more than that, though. They're pretty much what bunnies are for so many muggle children. They're easy to love, and I am sure that they bring joy to many wizarding children.

5. What scares you the most?
I think that what scares me the most is helplessness. It's a position I hate the thought of being in. If someone is injured, I want to be able to do everything I can to help them out. The same goes for situations with confrontation. I don't want to be the one at the sidelines unable to assist.

6. If you were to undertake a quest, what do you think would be most important to take with you?
This is a very tough one, but as a witch, it would definitely be my wand. I would make sure I could conjure food from a prestocked storage place. You can use the aguamenti charm to get water. I think that without a doubt my wand would be the most invaluable item to me.

7. Which real-life person do you admire the most?
Emerson Spartz, the founder of mugglenet. I think it's amazing that he started that site when he was only 12 years-old. Look where it is now! Not only that, but he's from Indiana, the same state as me. Indiana is right smack in the Bible belt. So many hoosiers are yelling that Harry Potter is evil, and the founder of the most visited HP fansite is from that state. Not to mention he's so nice.

8. Which literary or film hero do you admire the most?
Hmm...I'm not really sure on this one. I would probably have to say Daemon from the Black Jewels series. He has a stong dark side, and can be extremely cold, but he would do anything for his passions. He proves this by what he does in order to help Jeanelle. He nearly destroys the love of the few people he cares for and hurts them tremendously, but he did it for her and for the entire world.

9. Finally, which magical creature do you believe would be the most valuable to you in a near-death situation?
I think a phoenix would be most helpful. While there are many others that would be better fighters, it would be great to have something that could heal my injuries. Also the ability to carry immense loads would really come in handy.

Subject: Re: First Stage: Application Thu Jan 17 2008, 19:16

1. Why would you like to apply for The Creature Chronicles?
I think this will be a great opportunity to challenge myself, and seems like a lot of fun at the same time.

2. What quality to you believe to be most important?
a) Bravery
b) Loyalty
c) Knowledge (because if you don’t know what you’re doing, than how are you going to do it?)
d) Cunning

3. Which continent are you most interested in visiting?
Europe. Definitely Europe.
4. Which magical creature is your favourite?
Toughie! I’d have to pick a crup, because Jack Russells are one of my favorite breeds of dogs, and they’re so friendly and sweet ^^

5. What scares you the most?
Dying.

6. If you were to undertake a quest, what do you think would be most important to take with you?
I’d have to take with my wand, of course. Though that is the most obvious thing, I also believe it to be the most important. A witch without her wand is unthinkable, especially in potentially dangerous situations.

7. Which real-life person do you admire the most?
I admire my father the most because of what he wants for his kids and all that he’s done to make it happen. Growing up, he didn’t have a good support system, funds or encouragement, and so he made sure that he’s able to provide for his family and give us more than enough support with each and every decision we make.

8. Which literary or film hero do you admire the most?
My favorite (admired) literary character of all time has to be Ally from Trickster’s Choice and Trickster’s Queen, by Tamora Pierce. I admire her because, 1. she’s a super spy, which I think would be amazing, 2. she’s super brilliant, which is also a good thing, 3. she’s a great actor, which helps get out of sticky spots and 4. she’s able to use her spy-ness, brilliance, and acting skills to survive dangerous situations. (And I just love the books XD)

9. Finally, which magical creature do you believe would be the most valuable to you in a near-death situation?
A hippogriff, most definitely. He’d be able to help get me out of that near-death situation, which would be quite handy XD And, if it came to it, I’m sure he’d be able to fight too.

Subject: Re: First Stage: Application Thu Jan 17 2008, 21:14

1. Why would you like to apply for The Creature Chronicles?

Adventure all the way, or well I guess knowledge has a slight part of it, and learning more about yourself touches that subject as well. I think the power of being almost in solitude is an excellent time to learn about yourself, a chance to regain yourself. When you risk something even something little like a small adventure, the adrenaline rush.

2. What quality to you believe to be most important?

~~a) Bravery~~
b) Loyalty
~~c) Knowledge~~
~~d) Cunning~~

Loyalty, because if you can't be loyal then what else is there to be?

3. Which continent are you most interested in visiting?

Europe, mostly Italy and Spain in Europe.

4. Which magical creature is your favourite?

A kitsune, their amazing powers are incredible. To spend time with one for even a short amount of time would be incredible in itself.

5. What scares you the most?

Scars. Stuff that reminds you about all the stupid life changing things you did in the past.

6. If you were to undertake a quest, what do you think would be most important to take with you?

Well a wand for starters, but that's simple smarts there.
For me paper and pencils is the big one, you can sketch what you see, you and record everything you're doing. Two simple things are simply incredible!!

7. Which real-life person do you admire the most?

My eighth grade English teacher, whose name is of course Anom. She taught my class through the divorce with her husband, and even when she'd burst into tears during class she'd try to fight them! Nothing stopped her. When the vice principal would pick on her she'd just brush it off. She was my favorite teacher, and probably changed my life the most in eight grade.

8. Which literary or film hero do you admire the most?

Drizzt from the forgotten Relems series, the drow who was pushed from every socity he tried to belong to. But he still remained strong and fought for what he believed was right. He's my idol, well literary idol. Because he kicks some serious...buttox.

9. Finally, which magical creature do you believe would be the most valuable to you in a near-death situation?

Ooo toughy! I'd have to say a Fairy. Not one of those brain dead fairys from the Harry Potter books, but an actual fairy that has a mind of its own. 1.) it would be able to fly at the attacker and distract them. 2.) magic spells people, magic spells. 3.) Their portable, light as a feather, carry it in you're pocket. 4.) Razor sharp teeth.

Subject: Re: First Stage: Application Fri Jan 18 2008, 21:53

1. Why would you like to apply for The Creature Chronicles?

For one thing would be the advanture. I think that it would be fun and exciting to spend some thing with a magical creature. Also being a Ravenclaw I try to learn as much as I can and with these advantures I would be able to learn a lot of information about the selected creature. Also of course to earn as many housepoints as possible First Stage: Application 436937

4. Which magical creature is your favourite?

A dragon. As you can see its my animagus from and they are so powerful but yet they can be kind. (sounds like something hagrid would say lol)

5. What scares you the most?

BEES!!!!! I hate being around them and whenever I hear one I start screaming and running away

6. If you were to undertake a quest, what do you think would be most important to take with you?

My wand of course. With that if I need anything else Ill just magic it to me...lol

7. Which real-life person do you admire the most?

Theres not many people who I would say I admire but I do admire those who tell the turth and dont use others for thier own personal gain

8. Which literary or film hero do you admire the most?

Luna Lovegood. She doent care what others think of her and no matter how much others make fun of her she wont change who she is

Application

1. Why would you like to apply for The Creature Chronicles?
I actually enjoy the calss overall. It gives me knowledge of certain creatures that I barely heard of and I just like reading about them. I also find that this would give me a challenge. The adventures and information determine if I actually have what it takes to keep a magical creature.

2. What quality to you believe to be most important?

~~a) Bravery~~
~~b) Loyalty~~
c) Knowledge
~~d) Cunning~~

Knowledge. Hands down. I mean without knowledge, what are you going to do? You can't get anywhere without it.

3. Which continent are you most interested in visiting?
Europe. Definatel Europe

4. Which magical creature is your favourite?
Hmm. I always had a fascination with unicorns when I was little and I still find them appealing.

5. What scares you the most?
Being alone in the world.

6. If you were to undertake a quest, what do you think would be most important to take with you?
This is tough. Hmm. A wand would be my first choice, becaue I can't go anywhere without it. Although a map is a very close second. I get lost easily.

7. Which real-life person do you admire the most?
I haven't met many people in my life who have impacted me. I don't have anyone. For the moment, if I had to absolutely choose, it would be the only person who was there for me since I was 3 years old. My best friend, Lily. She recently got adopted and moved and I miss her everyday, but she showed me how life can still be great even though our lives aren't like most others.

8. Which literary or film hero do you admire the most?
Luna Lovegood.I relate to her alot. Even though she gets teased constantly she still looks on the bright side. I admire her for being her own person and not giving into the pressure of others. It's tough, but she did it and sometimes it makes me think, so can I!

9. Finally, which magical creature do you believe would be the most valuable to you in a near-death situation?
Pheonix. It's tears have healing powers... it can fly. So, if I ever needed something or someone it can send for them. It can even apparate!

Application

1. Why would you like to apply for The Creature Chronicles?

I love animals and my mum always told me that I could never have a pet as I kept killing my goldfish! So this would be a test for myself and help me learn some responsibility!!

2. What quality to you believe to be most important?

Loyalty

3. Which continent are you most interested in visiting?

Africa

4. Which magical creature is your favourite?

I have many favourites and each one would be an adventure

5. What scares you the most?

Being left alone

6. If you were to undertake a quest, what do you think would be most important to take with you?

My wand

7. Which real-life person do you admire the most?

My mum!

8. Which literary or film hero do you admire the most?

There are a few, though Ill choose David out of A boy named dave series as he is an amazing person and extremely brave

9. Finally, which magical creature do you believe would be the most valuable to you in a near-death situation?

Probably a hippogriff as they are loyal yet fierce and very protective

Subject: Re: First Stage: Application Fri Feb 22 2008, 14:07

1. Why would you like to apply for The Creature Chronicles?
I would like to apply because it is a really good opportunity to try out all the stuff I've learned about creatures so far. I also like the thought of having an extraordinary pet, as pets are cool anyway and when they are magical creatures, caring for them and seeing them develop ought to be still far more amazing.

2. What quality to you believe to be most important?

a) Bravery
b) Loyalty
c) Knowledge
d) Cunning

3. Which continent are you most interested in visiting?
Although each of the continents has so many interesting aspects that it would be worth far more than just one visit, the one I'm most interested in travelling is the one I live on, Europe. While it might be considered too normal for someone living there to travel, I think that with its variety of environments and cultures in all the countries (most of which I haven't been to so far) it deserves and sparks my interest in a long and detailed visit.

4. Which magical creature is your favourite?
Although I like both unicorns, centaurs and Pygmy Puffs very much, the Pygmy Puff is my absolute favourite. This might sound strange considering that it has neither super heroic powers nor unique qualities, but for one I couldn't ever resist something that's so cuddly, comes in purple and pink shades and destroys horrid spiders by making them lunch. But the real reason is that I think fluffy little balls are exactly the kind of thing you can cuddle when feeling bad and, as seen with Ginny and Arnold, you can take them with you whereever you go. It's also a giant plus that you're unlikely to experience bad surprises with them like Ron did with Scabbers, because, well, what kind of evil wizard would go and turn into a furry round thing?

5. What scares you the most?
Loneliness and being abandoned are what I fear above all else, even sickness or death, because I think when you are all alone, everything is frightening and depressing, but as long as there's someone with you who is loyal and loves you as much as you love them, then you can go through everything together, no matter how much the thought of it could scare you as a single person. It's just as simple as that: Everything is possible as long as you've got loved ones by your side!

6. If you were to undertake a quest, what do you think would be most important to take with you?
Concerning the perfect magical equipment, it would obviously be a wand to be able to perform magic in any given situation. However besides this, the most improtant thing for me to take would be a loved person to always be at my side. I think that when facing quests and adventures, it's not only good to have the help of another person, but above all you need somebody you can rely on no matter what happens, someone who would be willing to protect you at any risk knowing you would do the same for them!

7. Which real-life person do you admire the most?
There isn't anybody I specifically admire, but I do highly respect my fiancé, since no matter how hard his life is, he's always there for me no matter what, and I can be sure that he will fight whatever problem I might have right by my side. Plus, he's putting up with my attitude most of the times, which isn't always a piece of cake...

8. Which literary or film hero do you admire the most?
While I already find it hard to 'admire' a real life person, because I'm just not one who goes around admiring others, thinking of a non existent person that I admire seems impossible. I probably should start considering peoples' actions and not just decide whether they are likeable or rather despisable...

9. Finally, which magical creature do you believe would be the most valuable to you in a near-death situation?
I think this depends on the kind of near-death situation concerned, but it does seem handy to have a phoenix by my side, in case I get wounded critically and need to be healed.

Subject: Re: First Stage: Application Sun May 24 2009, 08:17

1. Why would you like to apply for The Creature Chronicles?

Subject: Re: First Stage: Application Thu Jul 21 2011, 09:42

My Application: 1. Why would you like to apply for The Creature Chronicles?
I want to apply because I love animals (especially magical creatures) and going on a quest with one at my side just sounds awesome! Plus I could always use the extra house points.
2.What quality to you believe to be most important?
ok this next one is really tough for me but I am going to have to go with Loyalty, because bravery is great but can sometimes border stupidity, but that said, being smart isn't everything (which is hard for me to say, being the slightly nerdy bookworm that I am). Knowledge IS power, but I would rather have a loyal friend than a powerful one.
3. Which continent are you most interested in visiting?
Hmmm.... is Alaska it's own continent? I would want to visit either Alaska or Africa, because of the wildlife.
4. Which magical creature is your favourite?
Ummm, this is another hard one for me, but it would be either a phoenix or a hippogriff - I just love them both so much!
5. What scares you the most?
If you mean magical creatures, it's dementors.(Seriously, those are freaky!) If you mean in general, it's not making a diffrence, not doing what I was meant to do.
6. If you were to undertake a quest, what do you think would be most important to take with you?
I think it's going to have to be my wand. There is a spell for EVERYTHING!
7. Which real-life person do you admire the most?
Uh, well, I geuss it would have to be my mom. Don't ask.
8.Which literary or film hero do you admire the most?
Are you KIDDING me? HARRY POTTER, duh! He is smart, he is brave (a rare combination!) and, what I admire most, he is loyal to his friends. Although I also admire Dumbledore ............ and Hermione.....................
9. Finally, which magical creature do you believe would be the most valuable to you in a near-death situation?
I am going to say a phoenix, because they are incredibly fierce, brave, loyal, and intelligent, AND they cry healing tears.

1. Why would you like to apply for The Creature Chronicles?
To me, animals, and creatures are an escape. It is so lovely to know that through all the hell going on, you can just turn to a creature. Study them, bond ith them, and do it all freely without a worry in the world. And to have this love for them, I am going to want to know more and more about them!

2. What quality do you believe to be most important?

a) Bravery
b) Loyalty
c) Knowledge
d) Cunning
To me, B) Loyalty. I believe loyalty, is so rare to find these days. To be loyal, is something so grand, its as if youre finding a unicorn in the Muggle world.

3. Which continent are you most interested in visiting?
I would love to visit Australia! I am so fond with the culture in that Continent, and the animals they have there, I can only hope to get the opportunity to see, or maybe even play with them!

4. Which magical creature is your favorite?
I personally love Elfs! I feel like you can learn a lot from an Elf, because they are faced so much in their lifetime.

5. What scares you the most?
Ants. I have a horrid fear of Ants. Their so small... imagine the places in you they could crawl and you wouldnt even notice. Ants. First Stage: Application 972754

6. If you were to undertake a quest, what do you think would be most important to take with you?
My wand! How could you go without it?

7. Which real-life person do you admire the most?

She helps numerous girls gain self respect on the Tyra Show, along with teenagers my age, with other issues. Whether its family issues, eating issues, health issues, anything! She is my role model, not to mention she is absolutely stunning!

8. Which literary or film hero do you admire the most?
Alexa, from the Dark Hills Divide, written my Patrick Carman. Alexa, is twelve and is faced so many obstacles, and at such a young age overcomes them all with Bravery and Loyalty to her father.

9. Finally, which magical creature do you believe would be the most valuable to you in a near-death situation?
