Her strong will, determination, and intense powers of concentration. Ariana thrives on accomplishing the impossible task. She possesses an analytical mind, strong intuition, reasoning powers, perception, and long-range planning ability. Ariana can be extremely resourceful, courageous, and efficient. Personal magnetism can be intense, with the ability to easily make friends from all walks of life. Ariana is unwavering in her loyalty to friends. She often has a “double standard” in that Ariana likes to know what her friends’ plans are while, at the same time, being secretive over her own plans. Ariana is capable of extreme self-sacrifice for those she loves and will strike out if she feels they are being threatened. Ariana’s intuitive perception grants deep insight into the behavior of others. She, herself, is deep, psychic, and mysterious, with a quiet strength that belies the intense emotions seething underneath. These intense emotions can be channeled into strong sexuality or creative endeavors that will literally take on life. Ariana is innately in touch with the unconscious. Ariana possesses great endurance; she will battle against seemingly severe odds. She is self-sufficient, though not always self-assured. Ariana never seeks applause or the limelight. At the same time, she is exceptionally creative. Her regeneration lies in learning to cooperate and to be outgoing toward others. When Ariana serves selflessly, she is truly dynamic and majestic. Ariana, functioning on the personality-centered level, can be vindictive, underhanded, sarcastic, very stubborn, proud, possessive, and jealous. It can be difficult to truly know Ariana, due to her reserve and secretiveness. Ariana’s tongue can be deadly in its capacity to sting where it will hurt the most. Ariana has strong tendencies to repress her true feelings and instincts. She is aware of her shadow side, but may try to repress it.
When Ariana gets into an argument with somebody, she loses her temper pretty quickly. She isn't easily swayed by the opinions of others. When she sets her sights on getting something, she doesn't give up until she has it. Ariana has been told that she is very physically attractive and she feel that this is true, and isn't afraid to express it. She has been told that she can be one of the most frightening enemies to have. As a result, some people tread pretty lightly around her. She is very loyal in romantic relationships. Even if she am just casually dating someone, she would never considering flirting with anyone else. Ariana is a rather good teacher if other Slytherin members don't get an assignment. She sometimes gets possessive with her significant other---She gets irritated when he wants to spend too much time with someone else. Her friends sometimes poke fun at her because she sets very high goals. But Ariana will not stop pursuing her goals, no matter how outlandish, until she reaches them. She is sometimes secretive about her life, even when she doesn't have anything in particular to hide. She tries to protect herself and be guarded with her emotions, but when the emotional flood gates open---LOOK OUT!! If somebody 'does her wrong' she is very slow to forgive them. Some people, she just never forgives.
* The sensitive nature of Ariana could act as a double-edged sword since, it is very natural for her to feel/get hurt quickly. The anger or dissent could be expressed by Ariana in the form of destructive speech or behavior. In the rage of anger, she doesn't fear to make even lifelong enemies.
* At times the outspokenness of Ariana might seem to be overly critical for others.
* She could be demanding and unforgiving of the faults present in her fellow colleagues, friends, etc. One of the reason behind this is that she is not aware of the shortcomings in her own personality.
* The political extremism and rebellious nature may lead to the Ariana developing a nature similar to that of an unscrupulous terrorist.

History:
Ariana Shallow is a city girl inside and out. She grew up in a Georgian townhouse at the heart of London and is the only child of a pair of workaholics. Her father is a pureblood and an auror in the Ministry of Magic. Her mother is a doctor. She has few fond memories with her parents as a child. She can remember a quiet Christmas when, for once, the holiday hadn’t been turned into a work party for the pair of them, and another time when the family had visited the Versailles in France the summer before she started her first year at Hogwarts. Otherwise, her father is usually away while her mother works long, rigorous shifts at the hospital. Ariana rarely complained. From a young age, she had understood that her mommy and daddy need to work a lot, but they love her very much. Hence, Ariana never rebelled against them and always stayed out of their way. She supposed that work was her parents’ common ground. They probably stayed married so long because they understood and respected each other’s careers.
It was understood that Ariana would never get in the way of her parents’ affairs, which meant that she would be quiet during mealtimes and it also meant that her time with them was limited. After an incident when she was four years old at the wizard hospital where her mother worked (in which Ariana had been mistaken by another patient and had had a needle injected in her that made her sick), Ariana never wanted to go back. Thus, her parents hired a nanny who was neglectful and often took naps in the drawing room of their home. Left to her own devices, Ariana didn’t have the chance to connect with children her age. Eventually, Ariana learned to sneak out of the house on her own and developed an independent nature as well as an unusually good knowledge of the streets of London. The libraries were her destinations, where she could read whatever she could get her hands on.
Now that she’s older, the concept of having workaholic parents is becoming harder for Ariana to cope with. They never took her outside of the city much, so Ariana doesn’t fare well in nature. She is an awkward flier because she never experienced open air. They never disciplined her directly. They never taught her about feelings and empathy either. Faced with emotional problems, adolescence and academic stress, Ariana now finds herself stuck in a situation where she wants to tell her parents, but keeps putting it off simply because they would be busy. Ariana still has the very best things. Money was never a problem. Her parents provided enough for her to have nice coats and scarves. She had been spoiled as a child and still is. She didn’t have a bad childhood. Her parents were just absent. They still are.
When she received her letter from Hogwarts, her parents were as proud as could be and took her to Versailles on vacation, the first real bonding experience she had ever had with them. When finally, she got on the train a new adventure began. Ariana began to spend lots of time getting to know other people as she had few friends in her childhood, but she preferred the company of close friends over others. The castle held many secrets Ariana wanted to discover. Whenever she thought she knew everything, the castle somehow manages to surprise her with yet another mystery.
