Juria Gandera's Character Profile

Name: Juria Gandera

Height: 5'7

Age:33 but someone could swear she looks only 21.

Birthday: October 31

Appearance:

Juria has Curly auburn hair which is usually pulled back or down. She has deep pure blue eyes that are shocking at first glance. Her face is gentle, and beautiful when smiling. Juria's eyes are her most dominant feature and when happy seem to dance and are gentle blue orbs, however when angry they become cruel, ice cold glaciers which send shivers down your spine. Juria seems to be 21 at all times, for she was bitten by a vampire, which at night gives some changes to her appearance. Her eyes are black around the edges of the iris slightly, then are a sort of deep pure blue and then in the center she has beautiful metallic blue surrounding her pupil.

At night, the brilliant blue eyes that someone normally sees are changed to deep crimson blood red. When crimson, they seem to glow in the night and since it is at night with all other colors dulled, her Red eyes stand out furiously. All around here there might be shadows but her blood eyes cast off all night and are seen easily. Like a normal vampire, Juria's K-9 teeth grow slightly. Nothing to scream out, "YOU ARE A VAMPIRE!" But enough for someone to notice them and comment, "You have straight teeth... and sharp K-9’s…". Also at night, Juria has no reflection in mirrors.

Juria is from long line of purebloods; however the family has nothing against muggles. Juria is in fact the 7th generation. Juria is very intelligent and knows tremendous amounts of spells and facts. Juria is somewhat powerful and does not usually need her wand. She is amazingly kind and trustworthy. People go to her for help or to talk things over with and they always feel better afterwards. There is some characteristic about her that allows people to feel safe and secure around her. As a student in Ravenclaw, she was always at the top of her classes and completely aced her owls and other tests. She can fill in for teachers if they need it but her specialty is in the healing department. As a cover in muggle societies, she is a doctor.

However there is a bad factor in her life. She doesn’t know the age but somehow she got involved with the Dark Lord. She has no knowledge of this, the story goes that He met her and found her to be intelligent and powerful so he put her under the Imperio curse. She worked as his spy and he made her do all sorts of things that required her knowledge and ability. She has a Death Eater mark on her left arm that she got while under the Imperio curse (this keeps her safer from other Death Eaters) it is ironic that she is the most trustworthy person and once was manipulated into being a spy for the Dark Lord. No one knows about her mark since she always wears sleeve gloves, or sweat bands, or bandanas on both arms to cover it up. The cover on the left is to cover it up and on the right is to pretend that she is not covering anything up. Juria went to Hogwarts to escape from him using her. She knows that she was under the Imperio because she put the pieces together and it fit. The only people that know are the people she tells, unless someone just happened to spy the mark on her arm. Her only memories about herself are from when she was a student in Hogwarts, a few random things in the middle, like her parents finding out about her mark, and then nothing except from the age of 30 to her age now.

Juria prefers to be called by her first name because her parents disowned her since they believe she “works” for Voldemort. This is why she opens up and tries to help everyone, mostly her students, so she can prove she is not evil. She also wants to prove to her parents she is still “their daughter”.

Juria's patronus is a Fox. ((totally unrelated I know but I had to put it in somewhere!))

UPDATED:

Juria has a very unique ability, similar to those who can talk to snakes. Juria is able to talk with felines, all animals in the cat family. She doesn’t tell anyone about it since it does not normally come up however if she is around a cat, she is able to have a conversation with it.

There is also one final interesting fact about Juria. While "working" for the Dark Lord (under the Imperio curse) Juria was bitten by a Vampire. However even though Juria was bitten, she is not a true full-vampire (the death eaters she was with killed it before it put too much venom into her) but she still has vampire venom in her veins. Since Juria was under the Imperio, she has no idea that it happened. The vampire venom is not enough to turn her into a creature of the night who feeds on blood; however it is enough to keep her looking like the same age that she was when she was bitten (Most likely age 21). This is why when she says her actual age people are shocked since Juria does not look her actual age. The vampire venom also makes Juria have faster reactions and she is stronger than average. Finally, because of the venom, Juria's heart barely beats and if she were to fall unconscious, someone checking her pulse would say she was dead. Juria does not notice her own weak pulse since her mind tricks her into thinking she has a normal pulse.

Because of being half vampire, Juria doesn’t need to go out and drink every night nor does she have the thirst for it. However she IS a vampire and therefore every 6 months on the full moon, Juria will go berserk at night and she will lose all other thought and run around at night killing many so she can be content for the rest of the year. Juria does this without awareness. Similar to a Werewolf, she looses control (and memory) and would kill her best friend if she crossed her path. Unlike a Werewolf, the Vampire that Juria "is" has logic and reason and knows what the best opportunity is.

Actress that represents her: Kate Beckinsale

Juria was forced to kill her baby sister by the killing curse while under the Imperio. That is the main reason that Juria's parents (Martha and Vergil Gandera) kicked her out of the house. Voldemort was cruel enough to make her do that while under the Imperio but then released her for a few seconds so she could be 'there' when her parents yelled and screamed for her to leave and never come back.

Another evil deed that Juria was forced to partake in was the raid of a neighborhood and the torturing of Luna Ingals. Juria caught her while accidentally apparating and then used the Curciatus curse for two hours, nearly sending Luna to the brink of insanity. Luna was only six at the time. This torture made Luna have to have treatment for over exposure to the Curciatus curse.

Voldemort sent Juria out on errands to ‘take care’ of some people that had gone against him. One such event was a man, his wife and his 4 year old daughter. They were just going home from a banquet and Juria was forced to intercept them and kill the wife and daughter, then burn down his house and leave him with nothing. Juria did everything just as Voldemort commanded her to, but she also took a diamond necklace from the woman, so the man would not even have his wife’s jewelry. Juria literally ruined the man’s life and took everything that was precious to him away. Now the only token she has from that time is the diamond necklace, which now she has no idea where she got it from.
