Name: Cho Chang
Age: Seventeen
House: Ravenclaw
Allegiance: D.A. Member
Personality: Cho is generally very soft spoken and somewhat shy. She is opinionated but usually doesn't speak her mind. She isn't shy but she isn't very outgoing either. She'll talk to people but she usually doesn't go up to someone and start a conversation with them. She usually just keeps to her group of friends. Within her own group of friends Cho tends to be louder and expresses herself and opinions more freely. She generally does this around the people she feels most comfortable around.
She isn't a pushover although she can seem that way at times. Cho doesn't always stand up for herself but she knows how to when she needs to. She doesn't like seeing other people upset and is usually great at giving advice. She usually knows what to say, when to say it and how to say it. Even though she's good at this she isn't very good at expressing her own feelings to others. Ever since the end of her fifth year she's gotten worse at this and has been more closed off then ever before.
Cho loves to have a good time and loves to laugh. Sometimes she gets caught up in her work or other people's problems but she generally has a good time. She tries not to worry about the little things, although this doesn't always work for her. She is nice, kind and usually a quite pleasant person to be around.

Family History: Cho grew up in a half blood, middle class family. Her mum is a witch and her dad is a muggle. Cho was born in Scottland where she lived until she was six when her parents moved to London, England. Cho is an only child who tends to get whatever she wants. But she never asked for much, knowing her parents didn't have tons and tons of money. She looks up to her parents and loves them both dearly.
Character History: Harry first meets Cho in Harry Potter and the Prisoner of Azkaban, during his third year (her fourth year) during a Gryffindor-Ravenclaw Quidditch match, in which Cho and Harry are playing Seeker against each other. He notices she is very pretty and she makes his stomach "feel funny". The only other notable interaction between them in this book is when Cho wishes Harry good luck before the Quidditch match against Slytherin and Harry goes bright red.
Cho at the Yule Ball in Harry Potter and the Goblet of Fire.During Harry's fourth year, in Harry Potter and the Goblet of Fire, his crush on Cho develops further. They exchange greetings at the Quidditch World Cup, and he later works up his courage and asks her to be his date to the Yule Ball. However, Cedric Diggory, one of the other champions of the Triwizard Tournament, has already asked Cho out, and the two of them end up dating until Cedric is murdered by Peter Pettigrew (on Lord Voldemort's orders) at the end of the book. Nonetheless, Cho is still kind to Harry—for example, she refuses to wear one of Draco Malfoy's "Support Cedric Diggory/Potter Stinks" badges, a fact for which Harry is grateful.
In Harry Potter and the Order of the Phoenix, at the beginning of Harry's fifth year, Cho surprises him by seeking him out several times and attempting to have a conversation. Unfortunately, for Harry, these encounters do not go well. The first time, she finds him covered with Stinksap that was accidentally let off by Neville Longbottom's mimbulus mimbletonia, and the second time she tries to talk with Harry, she ends up arguing with Ron Weasley about Quidditch teams. On the third try, when she happens to enter the Owlery while Harry is there, she defends Harry from a suspicious Argus Filch.
When invited by Hermione Granger to join Dumbledore's Army, Cho (who makes her fellow Ravenclaw friend, Marietta Edgecombe, go along) goes against the advice of her parents who wish her to remain on Dolores Umbridge's good side. Cho joins because she is determined to fight against Voldemort after what happened to Cedric in the previous year. As a D.A. student, however, she has her ups and downs. At first she gets nervous and performs her spells poorly whenever Harry is nearby; later though, she is able to conjure a corporeal Patronus in the shape of a swan.
Cho initiates a kiss with Harry under some mistletoe shortly before Christmas after a D.A. session, and on Valentine's Day they go on a date in the wizarding village of Hogsmeade, but Cho's grief over Cedric's death, her ill-founded jealousy over Harry's friendship with Hermione (who, ironically, tries to advise Harry on how to handle girls), and Harry's overall inexperience with girls sours the experience.
When Marietta betrays the D.A. to Umbridge, she is afflicted by the hex performed by Hermione on the piece of parchment, signed earlier by all members of the D.A. The hex makes purple pustules spell "SNEAK" across her face and they cannot be removed. When Harry scorns Marietta for the betrayal and Cho defends her, irate at what she considers Hermione's "dirty trick", Harry and Cho's relationship goes downhill. (Marietta's betrayal is instead committed by Cho in the fifth film, causing Harry to dump her, despite her multiple attempts to apologize, and dropping the whole hexed parchment storyline altogether. Cho is later revealed to have been under the influence of the truth potion, Veritaserum while interrogated by Umbridge.)
Cho makes only one very brief appearance in Harry Potter and the Half-Blood Prince. Harry catches a glimpse of her during the ride to Hogwarts on the Hogwarts Express but she hides back in her compartment with Marietta. Harry later mentions in a conversation with Ron that the two of them just "fell apart". This was also Cho's last year of Hogwarts, which means she may or may not be back for the seventh and final book, Harry Potter and the Deathly Hallows.

RP Sample: Cho smiled as she walked around the island. Smiling wasn't something she did often anymore. Crying and frowning had taken up most of her time. Ever since Cedric's death that is. The only reason she smiled now was because the island was so beautiful. And it was hard to be too upset here.
She sighed as she kept walking. She wondered what was here and was curious to find out. She did miss her home and parents, but at the moment that wasn't a concern. Her smile grew as she caught sight of the waterfall. She looked around then began walking that way. So happy she was almost skipping.
