name: Sara Virginia Weasley, after her mother's grandmothers. She's never liked the name Sara, and went by Sadie until she was about ten when she decided she'd like to be a Sallie instead.[/size]
age/graduating year: 23 / 2021
former house: Gryffindor
alliance: Revolution
wand: Birch and unicorn hair, 12 1/2"
occupation: Works with a small, independent group of Wizards in the field of Archeology, recovering magical artifacts before Muggles can get to them.
patronus: A field mouse (it is a weak patronus)
boggart: Blood
striking features: Sallie was never known as the 'pretty girl' during her Hogwarts days. Her looks have always been average due to her slightly stockier than fashionable build, bright red hair and lack of a proper fashion sense. She dresses comfortably a lot, as her job requires it, but she really just uses this for an excuse.

personality & history:
Despite the broad range of personalities that her siblings and cousins have, Sallie has always felt a little out of place in her family and in the world in general. She tells people that this is because she doesn't think like a normal person, something she takes for genius but muggles would probably mistake for a social disorder. Despite the fact that she doesn't really get other people and doesn't have a whole lot of social skills, she's still very loud and vocal, likes being heard, and likes getting her way. She's sort of obnoxious in this respect, and because of this most of her good friends only put up with her because they're related. She is grateful for the friends she has, but not grateful enough to treat them really well. She can take a secret to the grave; beyond that, she's not good for much. She borrows money and possessions without the intent of repaying them, uses her friends to her advantage, and a whole host of other nasty behaviors that she's been recently trying to kick.
She always long for a sense of adventure in childhood so when she was offered a position with an Archeology team she took it. She's taken a few classes on the subject, but beyond her Hogwarts schooling her learning is limited and they're the kind of classes where it's four students and a teacher and the class is also the team she works with. Still, she's fascinated by the subject and is thoroughly enjoying her experience. Shortly after joining the team she began an illicit affair with the team leader / professor, who was a good twenty five years older than she was and also married. He recently called it off in favor of his marriage. She never really wanted to be 'the other woman', and has always felt slightly guilty about this, but is also upset it didn't work out in her favor.
She left Egypt and her team about a month ago to return to England because of the war. She, like most of her cousins and siblings, sides with the revolutionists. She was upset that the rest of her team didn't come back with her and misses them as they've become her surrogate family in the last year or so, and fully intends to return to the dig once everything is sorted.

anything else: you should make her siblings.
