I left home when I was seventeen
I just grew tired of falling down
And I'm sure I was told
The allure of the road
Would be all I found

distinguishing features: Her most distinguishing feature is most likely her full, luscious lips. Her hazel eyes are quite intense as well. There is one section of her body, the back of her left shoulder across her shoulder blade and down to the middle of her back, there is a fire burn. Though only visible in tank tops, or unless uncovered, it is something she rarely speaks about. The only other features are her tattoos. The double headed eagle which is the symbol of Albania. She also has a script tattoo across her right side, over her hip that reads “Revenge is a confession of pain”
appearance overview:
Piper is of Albanian and British descent, and her luscious lips and chiseled jaw line show off this heritage. Her smooth olive toned complexion looks nearly flawless from another’s eyes. In the summer months, she can pick up a tan inside a few days with such ease, only exemplifying her features. Her chocolate brown eyes have a way of making someone feel at ease and comforted, or incredibly tense, nervous and fearful. Her face is almost the exact silhouette of her mother, with high apple cheekbones, a rounded chin and full lips. Her ears are of average shape and size, complimented by her long waves of brown hair. Piper’s body is built for physical activity and athletically inclined. Tall and thin, her arms, legs and torso are nicely defined around her muscles. The only flaw on her well defined exterior is a scar that starts at the top of her left shoulder blade and travels down to the middle of her back. Throughout the course of her life, Piper has graced her form with two tattoos. One is across the back of her neck shaped as the double headed eagle, the symbol of Albania. The other is across her right hip on the side.

weaknesses: Piper allows her tragic past to direct her actions. She has a tendency to be single minded and closed off to other points of view. It takes a lot to get through her thick head and when it does, she has trouble agreeing to whatever it may be. Piper has a deep insecurity when it comes to relationships. She hardly lets anyone in, including her older sister.
skills: Among other things, Piper is skilled with a bike. We’re talking fast speeds, fine machine motorcycle skills. When traveling abroad after her graduation from Hogwarts, she found herself racing for money at times. Other skills would include hand to hand combat, primarily in-depth training with karate. She is gifted in Transfiguration, having been offered the teaching position more than once before finally accepting, and Piper also has a talent for taking pictures.
goals: Her first and foremost goal is to give her son a good life, providing him with all his needs and everything he deserves.

fears: Fire is a big fear of Piper’s. This a major panic button in her life, to the point where Piper would rather freeze in the winter than start a fire. Even if it is in a fireplace, you will never find her nearer than she has to be. The only other fear for a girl who has lost everything would be getting to close to someone. Opening that can of worms to potential rejection, or sudden loss, those emotions would prove to great for Piper to experience. She fears she’d never survive.
patronus: Piper’s patronus takes the form of a cougar. A proud and insurmountable beast, it can also be quite ferocious when the time comes. Often standing stoic among the crowd.
personality overview:
It is safe to say that Piper had an extreme personality reconstruction, leaving her with a distinct separation. From the time she was born up until her sixth year of life Piper was a sweet, shy little girl. Always running around with a smile on her face, she was full of wonder and intrigue. She was known for asking questions and making the cute little puzzled face when she received the answers. Piper was a sponge for information, and every evening, putting her to bed was a game of 20 questions. This persona only grew stronger as the years went on, causing Piper to make her parents proud of their boisterous daughter, and at times annoy her bigger sister. She always had a great affinity for physical activities, and as a little girl would integrate quite well into the groups of muggle children to play their sporting games. This side of Piper gave way to her mischievous side, and her troublesome side.
The tragic events of her childhood, centering around age six, would change Piper forever. The excited, wondrous girl was simply no longer there. When she and her sister moved in with their father’s brother, Piper went quiet and somber. Observant of the outside world, she made sure to take in everything, but revealed very little. Throughout the years, she became more and more observant, however school pulled out a more social side. Despite her introverted personality, Piper had a courageous side to her. Many times during her days at Hogwarts, she could be found standing up to certain bullies, and refusing to allow certain targets to be picked on if she could help it. Along with this bravery came her loyalty. Once Piper made a friend, they would be friends forever. She’s the kind of girl who will do anything for you, even if you never ask.
Despite being so loyal to those deemed friends or family, Piper is extremely cautious when it comes to matters of the heart. She finds it hard to let people in, even her own family at times. Getting close to people is a major fear for her, and because of this, her friendships usually dwindle away. The only person she has ever let in is her son. There is a distinct difference in her persona when she is with her son than when she is with other people. Her sister and uncle often note how the essence of the Piper that used to be shows up whenever she is with her son.

history:
Born in the chilly month of December in 1997, Piper entered the world at the end of the second wizarding war. She was the second daughter born to Valon and Bridget Prince in a small village outside Norwich, England. As the daughter of one of the Ministry’s top Aurors, Piper was sharp as a tack. She had an uncanny ability to mingle with muggle children, to the point she could easily understand their customs and devices. Piper was a wily girl who enjoyed exploring and asking questions. This persona she began growing into was almost a mirror to her father’s, and a large annoyance to her big sister, Era. At six years old, tragedy struck at the two young girls. It was just a short while after the Dark Lord’s defeat, and there were plenty of Death Eaters still trying to cause whatever chaos they could manage outside the Ministry’s radar. Being an Auror, her father Valon was on many watch lists belonging to Dark Wizards. It was only a matter of time until they targeted him on some sort of retribution.
On the evening of May 15th, 2003, two Dark Wizards approached the Prince home, wands drawn and ready to attack. The family was dining inside, with Piper telling one of her usual tall tales about the muggle world around the dinner table. To Piper, the whole night is one large blur. She barely remembers anything, except for screams and her parents’ bodies covering her and her sister from the danger. The Dark Wizards had set the home on fire after killing her father with the Killing Curse, purposefully leaving her mother, her sister and herself alive to burn. One of the many faces she remembers is that of Ronald Weasley pulling her from the flaming debris.
Following the attack, Piper spent several months in the burn section of St. Mungo’s with her Uncle Reed and sister by her side. When she was well enough, Piper was sent to live with her Uncle, along with her sister in Ipswich, England. Like any other magical child, she was offered a position at Hogwarts, and eagerly accepted. She was no longer her quizzical, intrigued self, but quiet, introverted and often showed signs of a horrible temper. After Hogwarts, showing signs of great social progress, her Uncle Reed agreed for her to go on a trip to the United States. It would be here that Piper truly experienced life after her tragic past. This would also be when she experienced a great love for muggle motorcycles. Upon her returning to England, two major events happened. One, she was offered the Transfiguration Professor position at Hogwarts, which, in her young age she turned down to pursue other options. The second was, she met a boy. Naturally, she opened her heart a little too much in this relationship and initially it was wonderful. After sixth months of intensity, passion, and head over heels love, the relationship hit a snag and the couple parted ways. It wasn’t until a month later that Piper’s world faltered slightly. With the discovery that she was pregnant at 21 years old, she couldn’t bring herself to tell her ex. Eight months later, Piper gave birth to her son, Demetri Valon Prince. Living back with her Uncle and sister at the Landau estate, she spent the first year of her son’s life with him. When she was offered the position of Transfiguration Professor once again, Piper took the opportunity in hopes of providing for her son.
