about the character
[/i][/color][/size][/center][/font]
The name is Danika. Of course, most people call me Dani, the family calls me Rosie but if ANYONE but my family calls me that it won't go over too well. The pub has been in the family for ages, in fact my whole family grew up in that flat above the bar. Mum's a muggleborn, and dad's a pureblood. So that makes me, Liz, Lils, Izzy, and Tris halfbloods. Of course, because of this we could not go to Durmstrang like Dad did.
Liz, or Elizabeth Carolyn Davenger, is a year younger than me, Lils, or Liliana Belladonna Davenger, is two years younger than Liz, Izzy, or Isabella Katherine Davenger, is three years younger than Lils, and last but not least Tris, or Trisana Eleanor Davenger is a year younger than Izzy. So that puts Liz as twenty-three, Lils at twenty-one, Izzy at seventeen and Trisana at sixteen. All girls. Dad was so disappointed. Of course, the disappointment ended when Liz got into Quidditch.
She and dad were always very close. I was, admittedly, a bit of a rebel growing up. Just in case the purple hair didn't clue you into that. We weren't the wealthiest family growing up, in case you didn't click that five girls and my parent all lived in the same flat above the family bar. It was a three bedroom flat. Growing up, me Liz and Lils in one room, and Izzy and Tris in the other.
Family meals were a big deal. During the summer, or the holidays, we had to be up at seven am sharp for breakfast, lunch was served at noon and dinner was at six. I am kind of the failure of the family. Liz is a professional Quidditch player. Lils is a Mediwitch. Izzy wants to go into the ministry and Tris is planning to move to Romania and train dragons. Me? I'm just the kid that inherited the pub. I guess someone had to do it. I could have applied myself more in school, but I didn't. Now I'm here, my grades weren't even high enough to teach. Not that they would let me with the way I look.
When I graduated I was infatuated with this boy. Me and him were engaged and I was going to move to America with him. Of course, that didn't pan out like I wanted. I did move in with him, but apparently I should have been more cautious. He came home drunk one Saturday night and I had made a flippant comment about him being drunk. He hit me. I thought it might have just been a one time thing because he was drunk off his ass, but apparently I was wrong. It wasn't a week later that I had made dinner. He claims that I burned the potatoes, and I didn't, but it turned into one of those petty arguments that couples have and he broke my nose. I packed my bags and apparated to my parents flat and never seen him again. Unfortunately that meant I was now living with my parents again, broke with no job.
When I was nineteen was when Elizabeth won her first game with the Quidditch team that picked her up. She was ecstatic but apparently Quidditch pays well because she had enough money to buy mom and dad a little cottage in the middle of nowhere. They were ecstatic and that's how I got to be the new owner of the Hailman.
Oh? You wanna know about me personally? Well I'm five foot seven and I wear heels all the time. My hair is bleached blond with bits of black, which is my natural color, and purple in it. I have always been a fan of american style and that shows pretty much everywhere on me. I'm thin at the waist but wide at the hips. I wear a lot of black and leather and I tend to dress a little bit on the skimpy side. Mother always scolded me for showing too much skin.
I'm a bit of a bitch and proud of it. No one and I mean no one fucks with me and goes away unscathed. When the douchebag that thought it was a good idea to break my nose hit me, I hexed him with a hex that gave painful boils to the face and packed my things as he was squealing on the kitchen floor. Lots of people who come into my pub expect to be able to take advantage of me because I am a lady, but that is a huge misconception. I am competent at hexes and curses, moreso than any of the subjects I was taught in school and I use them to my advantage. Not to mention I can hold my liquor with the best of them, but what do you expect from a rocker chick who grew up in a bar?
