PERSONALITY
When someone thinks of Slytherin they think of someone evil, cunning, manipulative and a Death Eater except Kathryn is none of those things. In fact, when the sorting hat sings about the ambition of the Slytherin's, he might as well be talking about Kathryn. Kathryn always had ambitions in life and while most people's are to gain power in politics, to become the best scientist in the world, to invent something, she wanted to become the best artist that she could. This ambition has driven her just about her entire life - ever since she first went to an art show when she was four with her parents.

Not only is Kathryn highly artistic and ambitious at it but she is a loyal friend to those few people who she calls friends. As someone the complete opposite of the majority of her house mates and rather shy at times she has a lot of trouble socialising with people and making friends with them. Shunned by her house mates for being who she is - a shy, halfblood who doesn't believe in blood purity and shunned by the majority of the school for being a Slytherin it is no surprise that she spends a lot of her time alone.

Being a Slytherin from a light family, actually made Kathryn quite tolerable of a lot of things- not that she wasn't already. If she wanted to survive in Slytherin she had to learn how to put up with them and actually soon realised that not all of them were as bad as they were made out ot be- but some were definately worthy of the general repuation Slytherin had. She is accepting of who people are and realise that everyone is different but in the same way if they try hard enough they could get over the stupid stigma that surrounds everything.

Enjoying time where she can be alone, Kathryn is a very peaceful person in that she loves having peace and quiet around her but will also not pick a fight with someone. If they choose to pick one with her she usually would just walk away not wanting to bother wasting breathe on an argument. If people wanted to argue then it is obvious that both of them would disagree on whatever the topic is so why bother?

HISTORY
Kathryn Leanne Bundy was born on August 22 1982 to Scott Bundy and Marcelle Smith a muggleborn wizard and pureblood mother to much scandle among the Wizarding Community as the couple was not married at the time. Of course the two of them were engaged at the time but it didn't stop the scandal. Scott and Marcelle were married two months later in a small ceremony.

Growing up as an only child to a young couple was hard on Kathryn at first but she slowly grew used to it. Also it didn't take long for her father to find a steady job which helped and when Kathryn was old enough her mother got a job of her own. While her parents at work, Kathryn spent a lot of time with her cousin Zacharias Smith.

From a young age, Kathryn had always enjoyed more artistic past times from drawing to reading and writing, taking to all of them quickly and easily she much prefered doing these than to spending time with other children who she often felt uncomfortable around. Even though she spent time with her cousin she didn't have much interactions with other children until she started at Hogwarts so she never learnt how to relax and just play around them.

When she was four, her mother took her to the local art gallery for a visit knowing of her passion for drawing even at such a young age and from then on, Kathryn has dreamed of becoming a world renowned artist. Her parents have encouraged this dream of hers and her other passions as well. She also took to writing though not as well as drawing and painting and occasionally played the flute and piano though she hated to practice them so that didn't last all that long.

Upon arriving at Hogwarts, Kathryn was sorted into Slytherin which was a first in her family due to her ambition though it was a close call with Hufflepuff though. It was obvious from the minute of her sorting that she wasn't welcomed in Slytherin as she was completely different to the majority if not all of her year mates and they didn't try and hide their disdain from her. Truthfully she didn't mind though as it meant she wouldn't have to interact with people as that was something she was still quite uncomfortable with.

Most of her early years at Hogwarts, Kathryn focused on her school and art work while ignoring the other people in her house. It didn't take them long to realise that they wouldn't get a raise out of her so they soon left her alone which she was glad for. The only bad part about Hogwarts was that for the first three years she really had no one she could call a friend- oh there was Zach who was two years above her but he was her cousin so he didn't really count. Half way through her third year though she got to know a couple of Ravenclaw's in her year that she became friends with which was good.

Her fourth year was much the same though it was during that year she realised she was attracted to girls when she developed a crush on a girl two years above her. Her fifth year though was when everthing changed. With Dumbledore dead the Dark Lord took over Hogwarts during the summer much to her distate as she really didn't agree with the whole Pureblood surpremacy thing. While she was a Slytherin she had a bit more freedom but she quickly learnt to not publicise any of her feelings if she wanted to do well in her classes. Despite that she did well on all of her OWL's though she did the best on her two electives - Arithmacy and Ancient Runes.

While she wanted to fight in the Battle she accepted the teacher's instructions not to, plus if she was sensible she was well aware that sort of magic wasn't her strength and she definitely didn't know enough as it was. After the battle she helped clean up and did her best to avoid the people who judged her just due to her house, so close to the battle with so many deaths she didn't want to aggravate anything.

When Hogwarts reopened she returned to Hogwarts, determined to finish her education and do as well as she could. She was also determined to show people that just because she was a Slytherin she wasn't evil. Nonetheless she did keep her head down and worked as hard as possible at her school work. After leaving Hogwarts she managed to borrow some money from her parents and along with what she had saved over the years opened her own art gallery. It took a lot of work and time upon her part but in time she got it up and running successfully.

Not long after she turned 22, Kathryn bought a new apartment in Muggle London, close to the Gallery which was on the border of Muggle/Magical society though she visited and talked to her parents a lot.

Over the past four years she has dated a couple of girls though they weren't all that serious. She has also continued to work at the Gallery and work on her paintings and drawings with the dream of becoming a professional artist one day soon.
