Brown/orange eyes. Cream skin. Naturally brown hair dyed purple. Slightly shorter than average, shorter when younger. Average body size, small chest.

She is normally a kind and generous person. With her friends, she has a strong bond is more relaxed around them. She has a short fuse, and when anyone is being rude or perhaps a tiny bit selfish she will get angry with them.
- History
Terry Peritus was born to a wizard father and a Muggle mother. Her father was hardly around during her early years until he permanently when she was two. Her mother married another man and had two more children after Terry, a boy one year younger and a girl three years younger than Terry. Her mother taught her how to cook and she became a master at baked cookies, spanning out to all types of biscuits. Once she turned four, she began showing small signs of magic. A rolling pencil that she’d waved at. A book falling from the shelf and her little brother being “pushed” from the couch. When she was six was the first major incident. She and her mother were making pancakes and her mother let Terry have a turn flipping the pancakes. She did a couple of good flips until one was only half in the pan and started to slide out. Panicking, Terry thrust her arm holding the pan, the left one, forwards and the fire on the stove shot a pillar of fire to the roof before quickly disappearing into the air. A black burn remained on the roof above the stove and Terry’s arm had been caught, leaving her with severe burns. They healed over time but left an ugly mark on her arm.
Her mother was surprised when she received a letter from Hogwarts, although she had had her suspicions about her father. She sent a letter back to Hogwarts asking for an explanation, because she did not understand half the stuff the letter was talking about. Professor McGonagall arrived at their doorstep a few days later and sat down with Terry and her mother, explaining everything about Hogwarts, how to get to Diagon Alley and Platform 93/4. Terry’s step-father, who didn’t quite like her and often avoided her, was pleased to hear about this far-away boarding school, especially since now she was ‘special’ although her mother was more concerned, not wanting her to go. Terry didn’t want to go at first either, but as she heard more and more about the school and magic, she wanted to give it a go.
- Equipment
She has a wand (what it is made of is undecided), a broomstick and a tiny owl, named Tweed, that can only carry small letters over short distances.
- Skills
She has strong legs, which means she can run and walk faster, jump higher and hold onto a broomstick easier. Her joints are also flexible and she has a strong grip.
She can also calm most arguments and fights, when she isn't the one who started them.
