I give you ( The Pottersues FAQ )

This is... different.

TITLE: Harry Potter and the Tears of a Shadow
PERPETRATOR: October Spirit

SUE-O-METER: (awful)

FULL NAME: Dorcas Meadowes... or Livi de Tomel
SPECIES: Human/Witch
HAIR: as Dorcas, 'Her strawberry blonde hair was cut short and choppy but accented her many freckles nicely'. As Livi, it's 'Long curly maroon hair'. Maroon?
EYES: Dorcas' are 'sharp green eyes'. Livi's are... well, 'They were of the softest blue color, shaded by thick black lashes. Snape had never seen eyes of such a unique shade of blue.'
MARKINGS: does maroon hair count?
POSESSIONS: 'a long, slender black wand, the core, essence of faerie dust. It was especially good for defensive and offensive spells and quite helpful when if came to transfiguration.'

ORIGIN: *deep breath* Well. Years ago, Dorcas was in love with Remus Lupin, but then Voldemort killed her and she went to heaven. Yeah, really. And she got to welcome Sirius when he showed up. In heaven. But then the guys in charge (of heaven?) decide to send her back to Earth to help Harry or something... so she comes back as Livi. From heaven.
CONNECTIONS TO CANON: Remus Lupin's long-lost love. The new DADA teacher. And Snape seems to have the hots for her.
SPECIAL ABILITIES: Living a few hours after being Avada Kedavraed. And she can remember heaven. Heaven.

NOTES: Strange how this story is called Harry Potter and the Tears of a Shadow... I read the first three chapters, and Harry Potter hasn't been in it yet.
