Looks
- Spoiler:

Height: 165 cm
Eye colour: Very dark brown
Freckles: N/A
Beauty spot: Body type: (Weight: 54kg) - Slender
Dress sense: Colder Months: Skylar oftentimes wears cozy sweaters and jeans, as well as sweatpants or jackets.When she has to dress up during Winter or Autumn, she likes to layer her outfits. Warmer Months: This is the time when she opts for the classic shorts and a tshirt look during spring/summer. Or, she'll wear skirts and dresses, and (of course) she will layer her outfits as well, though in thinner fabrics. Make Up/Beauty: Very natural, none of that animal-tested make up. IF she has to wear make up, she opts for red lipstick, so a very retroish kind of look.
Personality
Likes: Skylar likes cold weather and snow- which is why she loves Russian winters more than the rest of her family probably does, and she loves all animals, which is part of her reasoning to become a vegan. She likes green eyes, older guys with facial hair, muggle history, potions class, magical medicine, gender equality, classical music (and singing, too!), pineapples, poetry, and adrenaline rushes.
Dislikes: Lies, arrogance, the circus, zoos, shrunken heads, pureblood supremacists, intolerance, stepping on animal feces, stealing, generally immoral acts such as adultery and murder. Typical stuff, more or less.
Quirks: She simply cannot stay still. She always has to stay moving, fidgeting, or something of the sorts. Skylar also doesn't like wearing shoes, so when she's at home, or just with people she really feels comfortable with, she will not wear them. She'll wear sandals or moccasins to move from her home to the park, or while walking down the street, but as soon as she is can take them off, she does. She also likes to sit on the arms of couches and chairs instead of on the actual seat and is a total grammar/spelling Nazi (which Skander hates).
Strengths: Open-minded, intelligent, educated, knows what she wants, nature-lover, creative, good singer, great cook, potions, charms, offensive spells. She is fluent in English and Russian, and understands spoken and written French but cannot speak it herself.
Weaknesses and Flaws: Easily hurt, feels everything too deeply, "suffer in silence" type, tends to hold grudges, forgetfulness, has a very loud laugh, often tends to pretend her mistakes didn't happen, falls "in love" very easily, has a definite weakness for dating men a bit too old for her age, tends to fight with her brother for too many insignificant things, such as who will do the dishes and why he can't shut up.
More Information
Family:
Aleksander Yasen Krupp was born in St. Petersburg, Russia on November 25th to Purebloods Jett and Sara Krupp. Being the middle child, between Rudolf and Larissa, he grew up to be quite the rebel while attending Koldovstoretz. Wild partying, casual sex, and even addictions formed part of his teenage years up to his early twenties. At age 16, when his brother Rudi moved to Britain to study drama, Alek moved in with him and so his schooling at Hogwarts began and he was placed under Slytherin House. While at Hogwarts, he became good friends with a French transfer student with whom he had a "fling" that lasted about 3 months. The two of them ended in good terms, keeping in touch even after graduation, and it was through her that Alek met Eliza when he was 24, and she was 23.
Eliza Margaret Rousseau was born in Paris, France on July 7th, a Muggleborn, to Marion and Odette Rousseau, of a lower-middle class. She was the eldest of seven children, leading her to develop leader qualities along with a motherly experience. Eliza attended Beauxbatons, where she met her then best friend Agnes, who later transferred to Hogwarts without much explanation. Once an imaginative and innocent child, Eliza grew up to be a very promising witch. She was intelligent and full of mischief, very skilled in potions and charms. At age 22, Eliza and Agnes reconnected, which led to many visits and traveling between Paris and London. Almost a year later, Agnes and Eliza moved in together to a flat in London, and Eliza met and fell in love with the wildness that was Alek Krupp.
Eliza loved Alek's way of living life to the fullest, and Alek loved her imaginative nature. The seemingly untamed Russian had finally found his match in the petite, dark haired Muggleborn witch. Though Alek's parents didn't care for Eliza's blood purity, they did warn Alek not to screw up as Eliza was the first girl they liked him with. They dated for about 3 years, and when Alek was just about to turn 28, and Eliza was 25, they married in Alek's hometown. A year after their marriage, Skander and Skylar came into the world. And their parents made the terrible mistake of giving them VERY similar names. And, naturally, Alek fucked up. Him and Eliza divorced after eight years of marriage, leaving the twins with their mother for a great deal of time, and when she moved to Britain to help her friend with the founding of a bussiness, the twins went with her, thus attending Hogwarts.
Skylar:
Born on January 26th, 1 minute and 23 seconds after Skander, Skylar has always been told she is the baby in the family. The 7 years she spent with her with father were probably the best of her life as she was somewhat of a Daddy's girl. What she wanted, Alek gave her. That being said, Skylar didn't ask for much, aside from sweets and icef cream, she never asked her fathe for toys or make up or a car or a broom. She grew up thinking the best of her father, and always stood up for him when Skander talked trash about their dad. He was, and still is, an amazing man in Skylar's eyes. She developed the same motto of Carpe Diem as her father had, but her mother's influence makes her think before act in most important situations. At around the time of her parents' divorce, everything in the Krupp household fell apart, and Skylar clung to her father as much as she could, which caused her first automatic use of magic to come to her. While listening to her parents argue in the living room, Skylar unconsciously made the windows and the glass door break as she looked at them both with annoyance, pity and temporary hatred.
After their parents' divorce, Skylar and Skander stayed in St. Petersburg with their mother, allowing them easy access to their father whenever they wanted. However, nearing their 10th birthday, Eliza moved them with her to London to help a friend with the founding of a photography business, and so Skylar and Skander grew up and attended Hogwarts with Agnes' son, Morgan. She was sorted into Hufflepuff, and thus parted ways with her brother, a Slytherin, and Morgan, a Gryffindor in his 4th year. It had never been a secret that Skylar had a childish crush on the Gryffindor, and so he was her very first "love". In her 4th year, and his 7th year, Sylar finally let go of her childhood crush on him and moved on to guys her age. At age 15, she had her first boyfriend who was a boy in her house, Iggy Thompson, and they were together for about a year before Skylar decided Iggy was too...well...young (even though they were really the same age). Later that same year, Skylar dated a 6th year Ravenclaw by the name of Martin Gaston, who was nerdy and conceited and Skylar couldn't handle it. She eventually dated another 6th year Ravenclaw that same term, this time their relationship lasted for almost a year. Towards the end of her 7th year, when she had just turned 17, Sylar dated a friend of Morgan's, by the name of Robert Ellis (aged 22 at the time), and they just recently broke up before Skylar's 19th birthday.
During her first year at Hogwarts, Skylar became friends with as many people as she could. She was friendly and easy to get along with, always trying to help as many people as she could. She excelled in potions, history, and herbology classes, and played as Hufflepuff's chaser for four years. Her time was often spent trying to tell people to leave her brother alone, as he often found ways to get himself in trouble and Skylar did everything she could to save him. Sometimes, Skylar got in trouble herself, because of Skander, but those problems were always quickly solved. She became Hufflepuf's prefect and eventually became Head Girl in her 7th year. After graduating, she worked for her mother's photography bussiness, learning much about the matter before helping her mother and Agnes with their photography sessions. She decided to take a break from school to get some money on her hands, and just now she's ready to enroll in university.
Her relationship with her brother has always been rocky. They both hate how much their names are alike, and it has led to countless fights and arguments between them and their parents. Skander and Skylar. Seriously. Despite the difference in personalities, Skylar has a deep love for her brother that always tells her to protect and help him. She would punch someone if they ever punched him, curse someone if they ever cursed him. Truthfully, though, Skylar has always felt like Skander doesn't really care for her, because he's never been the kind of brother to stand up for her, nor to help her up if she falls. There was a time when she accidentally broke a mirror in the house and Skander totally ratted her out, which is pretty much the core of their relationship. They just don't get a long. At least not publicly. Very rarely, when Skander's hit rock bottom on something, Skylar's been there for him and she likes to think that he appreciates that because no matter how much he screws up, he's always going to be golden in her eyes, much like how her father is.
