From Np Hogwarts

Player Name/Username: Caitlin/fireball_says

Char Name: Sadhana Joshi

Char House: Ravenclaw

Age: 17

Year: 7

Wand: Banyan wood, 9 in., roc feather core

Broom: Sadhana has a late model from the Cleansweep series.

Strengths: Sadhana is a studious person, very well-rounded magically speaking, as she applies herself to her academics. She is also very musically talented, good at singing and dancing, though not many people see that side of her. She is also multi-lingual.

Flaws: Sadhana is very serious and rarely laughs. She is indifferent to her classmates; she won't let herself become attached to anyone because she might leave it all tomorrow. Additionally, she's an extremely private and secretive person. Sadhana is an unwaveringly obedient to her father, who doesn't exactly have the best intentions. She does well in class because she work hard, not out of natural talent. The only classes she is naturally good at are Divination, Astronomy, and Arithmancy. She knows magical theory in and out but has much more trouble with the practical aspect. But she works hard in all her subjects, so she does well. She tends to be very proud, coming from a very ancient pureblood ancestry in India.

Physical attributes: Sadhana is rather plain; she'd look better if she smiled more often; she has dimples that no one ever gets to see. Often wears bindis and when she's not in wizarding robes, she's in traditional Indian dress. Neither short nor tall - in fact, she's only remarkable in the fact that she's not really remarkable at all. (Her body model is Bhumika Chawla).

Bloodline: Pureblood.

Background: Sadhana was born into a large, close-knit wizarding family a small rural village in the eastern Indian state of Bihar. They were the only magic family for miles but never really minded; they were prosperous and happy. That is, until violence erupted and Sadhana's mother and grandmother were killed. Her family moved to Kolkata and then Pune before they were able to regain status and settle, thanks to a friend and business partner of Sadhana's father's. For business reasons, Sadhana's father moved his branch of their extended family to London, and Sadhana's older brothers both graduated from Hogwarts. Sadhana is now in her seventh year at the School of Magic; she wakes up every morning wondering if that day will be the day her father withdraws her from school - not because of any Death Eater activities, but rather to go through with her arranged marriage back in India.
