Angela is still quite small for her age. Her hair is often worn in a ponytail, although when she wears it down it reaches the middle of her back. Her eyes almost perfectly match her hair colour, and these can sometimes be a gateway to a mind that has a sarcastic comment or two to make.
When she's not at school or in uniform, Angela's favourite types of clothing are brightly coloured dresses, ranging from sky blue, to red and green. She likes to stand out amongst a crowd and she feels this clothing choice allows her to do that. She prefers wearing skirts to trousers for school, and will normally only wear trousers if it is very cold outside.
On her stomach she has a birthmark that sort of resembles a horseshoe.

| Positive Traits: A good leadership quality A strong determination to be the best she can Confident | Negative Traits: Impatient Hasn't quite grasped how rude it is to interrupt people Can become frustrated if things don't go her way |

Angela is a generally confident girl (although this sometimes ventures
into the realm of overconfidence). Her interests in dancing and singing
won her a number of good friends at primary school, and she is always
driven to do the best she can, both in an effort to better herself and
to try and outdo her older brother.
She can be outspoken or impatient if she is with people she doesn't know quite as well, and despite hating it when sarcasm is employed against her, she's
surprisingly quick to turn to it herself, especially if her brother says
something she thinks is obvious or stupid. She can be a good team player, although as a captain for her primary school hockey team she developed a slight bossiness, and it may be hard for her to lose that as she makes the transition to teams she's not in charge of.
When she's at Hogwarts her fellow lions will probably have to put up with her singing and humming, because it has really become something she does without
even really realising it now.
Her biggest ambition at the moment is to go to Hogwarts and beat her older brother at everything. For the last three years she has been practicing her quidditch on one of the family brooms (and she hates the fact she can't take it to Hogwarts with her). She also dreams of finding a job that allows her to see the world. She dreams of visiting every country there is.
Though she'd deny it until she was blue in the face, she is currently starting to worry that she might struggle to adapt to Hogwarts. Even though she was a halfblood her mother never really saw too much of a reason to teach her much about the world of magic. She figured what was the point when she didn't have a want. Thomas didn't help too much in that regard either, and any time she tried to steal a look at his books she'd end up getting in trouble because Thomas blown it all out of proportion. She is also scared of spiders and snakes, and is therefore desperately hoping that she isn't sorted into Slytherin because Thomas has told her they have snakes covering the floor in the common room.
Her best memory is being picked to captain her primary school's hockey team and winning the first match in this position. Her worst memory is when she was grounded for a month for retaliating to Thomas' annoying behaviour by pushing him over just as her mother walked into the room. This was made worse by the fact that her brother got away with his part in the day's events.

History
| Bithplace: Cardiff, Wales | Current Residence: Cardiff, Wales |
| Parents: Lynne Winters, half-blood, Daily Prophet photographer Brian Winters, muggle, Real Estate Agent | Siblings: Thomas Winters, Halfbloof, Slytherin 3rd Year |
| Others: Maternal grandfather David Roberts Maternal grandmother Susan Roberts Uncle Ian Roberts Uncle Mark Roberts | Pet: No pet brought to school |
Angela has so far spent her entire life growing up on the Winter family
farm, just outside of Cardiff in Wales. Despite knowing that she would
eventually be attending Hogwarts, her parents decided that it was best
to give her a muggle primary education and decided against homeschooling
her, as some other families prefer. During her primary schooling she took a fondness for PE and maths.
In primary school she's always had a determination to succeed, and therefore tried to give everything her best efforts. This had earned her a place as the school's
hockey team captain and a group of close friends.
Growing up she's had a bit of a love-hate relationship with her brother. He is almost always the one who starts the problems that arise between them, but he has come to know that she'll retaliate in a way that will get her in just as much trouble as
him, something that brings him amusement. When they're not arguing
though, the pair get along as well as any other brother and sister.
Starting Hogwarts is something that has excited Angela for the last two years.
If she can go there and beat her brother at his own game well... let's say she'll be a very happy lion. She's very competitive when comparing herself to her brother.
On her eleventh birthday her brother tried to hide her letter from her, claiming that she probably wouldn't have been accepted. This went down quite badly and led to tears and another argument which put a dampener on the whole day. She'd been so heartbroken until she realised it was just one of her brother's stupid tricks and her mother forced Thomas to give it to her.

Sample

Sitting in front of the fireplace in the common room was just the
cosiest place in the whole world wasn't it? Unfortunately for James
today it'd also become the reason he was running up the stairs to the
astronomy tower as quickly as his legs would carry him. He'd completely
lost track of time as he lost himself in the pages of the book on
Ancient Egypt that Dillian had bought for his birthday. It was amazing
and exciting just how much more there was for him to learn on the
matter. It seemed like his primary school studies had barely scratched
the surface of their wonderous civilisation.
Bounding up the stairs two at a time he desperately hoped that he wouldn't be late.
Professor Sinistra had never seemed like someone who would put up with
such things, and even if she wasn't there, the likes of Grubbly-Plank
weren't any more lenient when dealing with such things.
Arriving at the door to the classroom James was relieved that the class hadn't
started yet, although it must've been very close... it seemed like he
was one the last to arrive. He quickly tried to locate a friend to sit
with, but it seemed they'd already gotten themselves partners, so
knowing that he probably didn't have much time he made his way over and
took the seat next to TQ. "Hey," he said quietly as he
dropped his bag under the desk. He gave her a smile, his face still
flushed red and his breathing still quite heavy from his attempts to get
here on time. It was weird how they'd been at school together for two
years, in the same house no less, but they'd never really had too much
to do with each other besides quidditch practice.
Following Sinistra's instructions James opened his bag and started searching for
his star chart and the folder that he sometimes neglected to put his
most recent notes into, pulling them out and onto the desk before going
back into his bag for a quill. After this James took a moment to look
around at his classmates. Sasha and Lyanna were sitting together, which
was really nice. He had to admire the way the eagle always seemed to
pick a seat at the front, even when faced with Milton. All James wanted
to do in there was shrink into invisibility. Turning to look elsewhere
he noticed Gavin sitting with... Shae? Okay, now he was confused.
Turning to look back at TQ he plucked up the courage to ask a question.
"Looking forward to the next match?" he asked quietly, his heart
starting to beat a little faster in his chest for some reason. He was
never going to tell anyone, but there was just something about TQ that
always made him more nervous around her than any of his other
housemates. Hopefully if he could strike up a conversation on something
that he knew was a common interest for them, he'd get rid of those
butterflies in his stomach.
