Other Information
Appearance( Minimum 2 Paragraphs) :
Luna has straggly, waist-length dirty-blond hair and is described as having a dazed look on her face. Her eyes are described as "silvery" and "misty", which suggests they may be pale grey. They are also described as "protuberant", which adds to the peculiarity of her appearance.She is described as looking like an embodiment of dottiness, with her wand tucked behind her ear for safekeeping, orange radish earrings (not to be confused with turnips), and a necklace made of butterbeer corks.
She sometimes has a dreamy look, that often seems to always show by accident. She always seems to have a surprised look on her face because if you watch her she never seems to blink as much as the others do. She seems to dress oddly sometimes seen in bright red shoes with all kinds of necklaces on when not in school inform.
personality (Minimum 2 Paragraphs) :
Despite her eccentricity and somewhat bizarre beliefs, Luna seems to be perfectly sane, and the fact that she is in Ravenclaw house suggests that she is also quite intelligent. She also has much moral and emotional insight and appears to be quite good at comforting others.
Luna is like an "anti-Hermione", as Luna believes things on faith alone and Hermione grounds her beliefs on facts and logic. Hermione repeatedly tries to convince Luna that her beliefs are nonsense, to no avail. Hermione sees Luna as very gullible and Luna sees Hermione as very narrow-minded. Hermione seems to have realised that Luna will not falter in her beliefs. Despite Luna's dottiness, she can be very perceptive about human nature, and Harry often notes her knack for blunt honesty.
one word to describe the Character: Misunderstood
likes and dislikes: She holds a variety of rather strange beliefs which seem to have no basis in fact, she likes lots of things but she is knew to stay by herself so not many people know her. Some people say she is into weird stuff. She hates the dark arts.
strengths: She sees past things and that makes her an interesting person, she is good in charms and casting the Expelliarmus spell.
weaknesses: Can be very navie and insane at times.
history(Minimum of 2 paragraphs):
Luna is a Gryffindor, one year behind Harry Potter (being in the same year as Ginny Weasley). The Lovegoods (Luna's family) were mentioned in the fourth book when they were using the portkey to get to the Quiddich World Cup. Luna is first introduced in Harry Potter and the Order of the Phoenix, on the Hogwarts Express. When there is no other compartment for Harry, Ginny and Neville Longbottom to sit in, Ginny convinces them to sit in Luna's compartment. She spends most of the train ride reading a copy of her father's magazine, the Quibbler, upside-down (an article in the magazine says that if you turn certain magical runes on their heads, they reveal a spell for turning someone's ears into kumquats), a publication whose content Hermione considers doubtful.
Her unusual effect renders her somewhat isolated from other students at Hogwarts, although she doesn't appear to care about what others think of her; she is aware of but seems unperturbed by the fact that many refer to her as "Loony" Lovegood. Some of her classmates regularly steal her possessions and hide them to amuse themselves. When she offhandedly tells Harry Potter this, she unintentionally wins his sympathy. Harry is angry when he hears that people steal Luna's belongings and offers to help her find them, but she declines, saying that everything always turns up in the end. Luna believes Harry's story about his escape from Lord Voldemort and defends it in front of a group of doubting students.During Luna's fourth year she joins Dumbledore's Army (The D.A.), in which Harry notices initially that her performance is uneven. Harry leads her, Hermione, Ginny, Ron and Neville into the Department of Mysteries, where they are ambushed by numerous Death Eaters; following a running battle during which Luna helps an injured Ron and Ginny out of a mysterious "Planet Room", she is eventually knocked unconscious, being one of the last of the Sextet to fall.
Luna claims to have been able to hear voices behind a mysterious veil that seems to separate the living from the dead in the Death Chamber of the Department of Mysteries. Harry could also hear these voices (Neville and Ginny may also hear them as they were likewise affected by the veil), and Luna appears to believe that dead people, including her mother and Sirius Black, are behind the veil. When she explains this to Harry, who is having trouble accepting Sirius's death, Harry feels better.
In her fifth year, Harry takes Luna to Professor Slughorn's Christmas party. For Slughorn's party, Harry notes that Luna looks quite nice in spangled silver dress robes and is relieved that she has not opted to wear her trademark radish earrings or butterbeer cork necklace. During this particular scene, she also says that when she was at the D.A. meetings, she thought it was "like having friends". Harry's preference that Luna leave her favoured jewelery behind, along with his reactions to her blunt honesty, indicates that he's still a bit uncomfortable with aspects of her personality. At the party, Luna mentions a few of her outrageous beliefs in conversation with others, causing both shock and amusement.
During the same year, Professor McGonagall appoints Luna as Lee Jordan's temporary replacement as Quidditch announcer for the school. While on duty, however, she absent-mindedly gets distracted from the game and begins to discuss other topics with the crowd, such as the oddly shaped clouds above the pitch, and that she thinks Ginny Weasley is nice, and that Zacharias Smith's inability to keep possession of the Quaffle is a symptom of "Loser's Lurgy". Some of the spectators jeer at her, McGonagall doesn't quite know what to do with her, and people who are fond of Luna fall about laughing. Her unusual commentary wins over Ron Weasley, who initially found her strange but started to reconsider her after hearing her description of the game.
When Death Eaters attack Hogwarts at the end of book six, Luna is one of the DA members who attempts to protect the school. Shortly after the battle, she attends Albus Dumbledore's funeral with Neville. There, she is seen helping Neville, who was injured in the battle, into his chair. At the funeral, Harry notes that she and Neville were the only two members of the D.A. (besides Ron, Hermione, and Ginny) to have answered the call from their coins to help fight. He notes that this is probably due to the fact that these two in particular were the most lonely, and probably checked the coins frequently to see if there was a meeting of the club.
Luna joined up with Harry and his friends and went with them, they ended up in 1977. They appeared in Hogsmeade. where she and the the others found a place to stay trying to think of a way out of this or what to do next, she is scared not sure how she is going to be sorted into Gryffindor.

Finishing up
roleplay sample(Minimum of 2 paragraphs):
Luna was out and about looking for things to do as she was bored and didn't feel like going back to her room and see who took what and had to start looking for the items. She decided that she would look around and maybe find anything. She laughed as she came up to the lake and smiled. It was so pretty and worth looking at. She thought about what kind of creatures could be down hoping it was something or someone interesting that she could tell her father about and he could write about it.
She turned and saw someone near her. She was nervous for a minute and took a breath, before moving a piece of her hair out of her face she moved towards the person and rolled her eyes seeing Hermione. She was not to fond of the girl, because she didn't see things the way she did and was not open to new idea's, and Luna always thought that Hermione was always looking at her oddly because of the way she thinks. Luna put a smile on her face and walked forward and stood in front of the Gryffindor girl " Hey Hermione"
