✧ PERSONALITY: I tend to be a solitary person; I prefer a small circle of genuine people rather than large crowds.
Because of my family’s past, trusting others doesn’t come easily to me.
On the outside, I appear confident, elegant, and a little provocative— as if I always know exactly where I’m going.
Inside, however, I still carry many fears: the fear of abandonment, the fear of disappointing others, and a fragile side I keep hidden from most. Despite all that, I have a big heart and a quiet kindness reserved only for those who manage to slip past my defenses.

✧ HOBBIES: I love reading, studying, practicing spells, stargazing, listening to music, and writing.
You can often find me in the library—not only doing homework, but researching things that pique my endless curiosity.

✧ BIOGRAPHY: I was born on December 9th. My father, Philip Schuyler, attended Hogwarts as a Ravenclaw and grew up in a Muggle-born family. He is calm, thoughtful, and curious—traits I inherited from him, along with my love for books and learning.
My mother, Cassiopeia Black, was the youngest sister of Narcissa, Bellatrix, and Andromeda. Unlike her sisters, she was sorted into Gryffindor, which immediately set her apart from the rest of the Black family.
Like Andromeda, she fell in love with someone they would never approve of—a man who wasn’t from a pure-blood lineage.
Because of this, she was mistreated and eventually cast out. After Hogwarts, my parents married. My mother opened a flower shop in London, and my father became a teacher at a preparatory school for young witches and wizards before they enter Hogwarts. With time, my sisters were born: Angelica “Angie”, now a Slytherin in her 3rd year, Elizabeth “Eliza”, a Hufflepuff in her 2nd year and Margherita “Peggy”, the youngest, who hasn’t received her Hogwarts letter yet (though we’re all certain she’ll become a Gryffindor)                                                                                                                                                                           Despite being estranged from the Black family, my mother always maintained a close relationship with Aunt Andromeda,
the only one who never abandoned us.
In the Second Wizarding War During the war, secretly helped families in danger by offering shelter and support.

Fun Functs:

•  Despite her apparent coldness, she forms deep attachments—almost too easily.
  


•  She has a talent for remembering seemingly insignificant details that most people forget.
  


• She likes to walk the corridors at night (legally or not), especially when Hogwarts is quiet.
  


•  She collects dried flowers, some from her mother’s old flower shop.
  


•  She sometimes talks to Lucea and Nyx as if they were people.  She loves the rain; she says its sound calms her more than any spell.
  


•  She has a fondness for scented candles: some help her focus, others help her relax.
  


•  She cannot stand disorder; even her desk must always be perfectly organized.
