Name: Amelia Peverell (Nickname: Twitch)
Gender: Female
Age: 18
House: Hufflepuff
Blood Status: Muggleborn (Magic comes from Grandmother)
Appearance: A Witch who is tall for her age, thin and slightly tanned with blonde hair that reaches to just below my shoulders. I have ice blue eyes. I'm not really into sports except for Quidditch where I would make a pretty good Chaser. My favourite subjects would be Charms and Transfiguration, however I am awful at Potions, probably why Snape has a profound disliking for me.
My wand is 13" willow wood with a dragon heartstring core that is slightly yielding.
I have a small tawny owl called Quilla who definitely has a mind of her own.
Personality:Im quite shy to begin with until you get to know me, i love meeting new people. Once I'm comfortable with someone you'll find i'm lively and chatty and generally down to earth. I'm fiercely protective of my friends and Merlin help those that cross me. I love getting out of my School robes to wear my more comfortable Muggle clothes.
Backstory:
The Founder of Slytherin, Salazar Slytherin, was related to Cadmus Peverell (an ancestor of mine)... his nephew (his brother Ignotus' son) was given the Cloak of Invisibility by his father, which he then passed on to his female descendant...who just happens to be an ancestor of the Potter family. The Peverell family are also related to the Gaunt family (ancestors of Tom Riddle aka Voldemort)... therefore... I’m related to Harry Potter, Voldemort and Salazar.
My family was entirely pureblood, every member was in Slytherin until, that was, my grandmother decided to break the tradition and marry a muggle... my mother and aunt were born (both non-magical). My mother then went on to marry my also muggle father and had my sister Olivia and I... both somehow magical, although somewhat now ‘tainted’ and 'mudbloods'... my sister still had the same characteristics of our ancestors, enough to be sorted to Slytherin, to the great relief of my grandmother, but when my turn came and I was sorted into Hufflepuff (which I love!!), let’s just say she wasn’t best pleased and blames my mother (of all people!) for destroying the family bloodline. So since coming to Hogwarts most of my communication with my sister and Grandmother have been cut off.
