Mirabelle Tullia Rosier
(called "Mira" by her family)
Age:
13
Appearance:

House:
Ravenclaw
Wand:
Sycamore, Dragon Heartstring



Personality:
Mira, on the surface, is well-behaved, speaks only when spoken to, and is somewhat shy. Though on her own or with a trusted ally, she is obnoxiously curious and has a deep desire to know what's behind every closed door. She's very good at entertaining herself, is truly an explorer, and often finds herself in situations where she must hide or risk punishment for sneaking around. Free-spirited as she may be, Mira was raised to respect authority and to do as she was told, but still finds it hard to follow this strict way of life. Besides exploring and sticking her nose in places it does not belong, Mira loves to read and is a very intelligent young lady. Biting her tongue was never a specialty of hers and she is certainly no stranger to disciplinary action. Deep down, Mira is lonely and would love a real friend who truly gets her, as she has always found it very hard to find anyone who doesn't find her very peculiar and strange. However, she's had great practice at hiding her true feelings and goes about her days hiding behind a mask to keep her true identity, wants, and desires secret.
Bio:
Although she has his name, Arturo Rosier is not Mira's real father. Her true parentage remains unknown to all except her mother, though Mira has always had a slight inkling that the man who raised her did not share her same blood. Mira grew up practically alone at the Black Estate having no siblings until she was 9 years old with only servants to look after and care for her. Her parents were often away from home and when they were around, neither her mother nor her father made an effort to give her the love and nurturing she so desperately wanted from them. Her father didn't care much for her until he discovered that she was quite the talented witch. Even then, his main concern was how often she was using magic to develop her ability. As a result, Mira is somewhat detached from her parents and family. Having the chance to go away to school was the best thing to happen to her.
Plotting:
Mira's true father has yet to be discovered and is still very much a secret to everyone-including Arturo. I'm pretty positive that if it was revealed that her mother had a child with another man, pureblood or not, it would bring a whole lot of shame and scandal to the family. She might clash with others who find her curiosity and thirst for freedom off-putting. Mira is also from two old pureblood families, so being forced into an arranged marriage with another pureblood son is very likely to happen in the day and age this roleplay takes place.
Family:
Mira's parents are both from distinct, pureblood families. Her father, Arturo, was born into the infamous Rosier family and her mother, Alys, hails from the ancient and notorious Black family. Mira is the eldest and has three other younger siblings: twin brothers, Pollux and Castor, and a sister, Sabine. Arturo is not her real father, and the real one is still unknown.

Name: Contessa Evangelina "Eva" di Diavolo

Age: 13

Appearance:


House: Hufflepuff

Wand: Rowan wood with a Phoenix feather core; 12 1/2 inches, unyielding flexibility.



Personality: Despite Eva's upbringing, she has attempted to make herself as down to earth and gritty as possible. She'll be the first to get down and dirty in some exploring or adventuring, is extremely outgoing in casual social events (Not so much in formal ones, but then again, it depends on the crowd she's hanging with), and enjoys making friends - particularly with common folk, or simply those without airs and graces. For her, there is nothing worse than acting above everyone else simply because of your blood or your family name - to her, what lays in one's heart is what is important, and she tries to make that known to most new people she meets.
As she would hate for people to assume that she's just another shitty-acting noble, Eva is quick to stick up for underdogs or those being bullied - more than once, this has led to fights in the streets involving a lot of hair pulling and behaviour unbefitting of a Contessa. Despite the various scoldings received from her parents in regards to this, she continues to do so - and will have a lot more chance to truly act like herself in the halls of Hogwarts. Be ready to expect a steadfast friend loyal to the end, who will personally fist-fight a dragon for you - who cares if her dress gets burnt in the meantime?

Bio: The di Diavolo family was a lesser known - but still influential - noble House present in Florence, Italy. Close to the ruling Nobles, House Medici, it was extremely easy for Eva's pure-blood wizarding family to avoid persecution from the Papal States, who did not have much leeway in the state of Florence thanks to the Medici's.

However, that changed in 1471, when Pope Sixtus IV was elected as the new Holy Father of the world. As with most Catholics at the time, he abhorred the thought of magic, science, and anything that could bring down the Catholic Church - which included House Medici. They held Florence, and had disobeyed Rome and the Vatican for far too long. From there, the Pazzi Conspiracy took place.

In 1478, the Pazzi family attempted to assinate two members of the Medici fgamily, and Pope Sixtus had aided the plans along. While they failed to overthrow the family, and did not attack the di Diavolo House directly, Eva's parents were terrified. They had only some protection from the Catholic Church by the Medici's, but this blow shook their confidence in the ruling House of Florence. Scared they too would be attacked - and their status as magic users discovered - the di Diavolo's left Italy, travelling to England to live with Noble family there.

While witch hunts were still prominent in England at this time, it was rare for nobility to be even accused; the peasantry couldn't even try and judge them if they tried. So, the di Diavolo's were safe, building their reputation and their family. They had left Italy with two children; Eva, at 10 years old, and her brother Leonardo, at 13 years old. The pair were already fluent in English (Italy and it's Church had declared the English language as heathenish and dirty - the di Diavolo's took great delight in learning it as a small, private rebellion against the zealous Church), and by the time their younger siblings were born as twins a year later, their accent was all but gone.

Naturally, when their parents caught wind of a wizarding school, they shipped their oldest two off to it immediately. Eva needed the discipline and Leo needed the independence from his parents. Also, with them both at a boarding school, they couldn't complain or refuse any arranged marriages their parents concocted.

Plotting: Her brother is in his fifth year at Hogwarts, and the two get along well enough. He considers her behaviour to be benefiting of her title, but isn't overly annoying about the whole thing. He's more bothered about his nobility than his blood, anyway.
She's unlikely to get along with the pretentious, snobbish, or judgemental - and if she hears the word "mudblood" thrown around, her fists are going to be thrown around too.

Family: Vaguely related to the Black family, somewhere down the line.

Name: Lior Reynes
Age: 13

Appearance:

House: Slytherin
Wand: Ash with Phoenix feather.

Personality: Lior is an intelligent girl with a good memory. She is skilled at remembering information she is taught, and is rarely ever found studying or taking notes in class. For her, just sitting and listening is often enough to learn, though occasionally it requires more work than that with more complicated subjects. In attending Hogwarts, she wants to come out near the top of her class in order to better herself and how her life was so far. She has ambitions to work in a better field than her parents, a farmer and a barmaid. She doesn't have many scruples on how she does this or what sort of work that may entail. She wants to become on par with the great pureblood houses.
She is often quiet, but when she does speak she can be extremely opinionated. If she believes in something she may become relentless in its pursuit. If someone spits at her, she's equally likely to exact immediate revenge with a sharp remark, or just stand taller and wait with a grudge.

Bio: Lior wasn't raised in a rich home, like most of those with wizarding heritage around her at Hogwarts. She grew up living on a small farm with her parents, in an average sized wizarding town in England. Because of this, Lior is very familiar with hard work. She loves animals and learning about magical creatures, and she always has.
Her father, Owen, owned the farm and brought livestock to the market for meat and other purposes. Her mother, Moiraine, worked at a local tavern servings drinks in the evening, and because they were such a small, poor family, she often had to help out on the farm during the day as well. As soon as she was old enough to understand, Lior was put to work, and even before that, her father would bring her around with him as he did his work, so she would be familiar with it. She never had a wand until she was 11 and never learned any magic, but she learned other things growing up, like maths and reading.
From birth to age 11, Lior barely had a vacation and no friends save her small dog, Lily, who was also their family sheepdog, though they had a good connection. While Lior was still 10 years old, she received a Hogwarts letter. Her parents had always told her she would, but she had never thought much on it or believed it. They were a small, poor family. How could they afford to send her there? From well before her birth, her parents had saved every penny they could until she was 10, when they sent a medium sized sack of coins and a letter to Hogwarts, detailing her bloodline and upbringing. This was the reason her parents didn't have more children (who could've helped out o n the farm), so they could put everything they had into their first. She went off to Hogwarts, meager, second-hand supplies and ratty clothes in hand. Barely in her life had she seen a silver coin, but she did that day in Diagon Alley, and no little more than that.
Upon arriving at Hogwarts, she immediately applied herself to catching up to her better-born peers with basic magic. She spent nearly all her time in the library or generally just practicing spells in empty classrooms, teaching herself from books where she could. She wanted to match and surpass the other students. By third year, she has caught up with most of their knowledge, though she sorely neglected her personal life and barely has a friend to speak of.

Plotting: Her parents are wizards but has muggle in her heritage, so some people may just not know what to do with that. She's equally likely to spit on someone more noble than she is or to kiss up to them to advance herself, though she rarely interacts with people for extended periods of time. Now, having caught up in her studies, she will have more time to basically meet the people around her. As she is from a poor background, she's very sensitive about money and would be very tempted by seeing any. Hates charity, of course, but money could easily be a big motivating factor in what she does. She would probably actually like to distance herself from muggleborns and other poor people i order to ain a good reputation.

Family: Her father brought the name Reynes from his muggle father, who married an Avery woman. She left her family avoiding a marriage and set about travelling the world, and eventually settled down with her muggle husband. Lior never understood the woman. On Lior's mother's side, there is no muggle blood as far as it's known. They were just a poor family who have lived in this small town of Rosecliff for as long as anyone can remember. Most other families like that in the city are a bit better off, more middle class and living closer to the center of town, though the Ingram family, somewhere a few generations back, had crippling debt that Moiraine's (Lior's mother) mother only just managed to pay off the last of. The family has been stuck in poverty for a while.
