Description

Rich amber eyes are set beneath dark brows. They match the mop of wild chin length hair and dusting of bangs. The straight slope of her nose falls to a lightly heart shaped lips. The pixie like woman carries her youthfulness easily and tempers her sharpness of character. Standing at just above average height, her slender spritely form has begun filling out with the presence of another life.
The blouse she wears fans out over the simple cardigan of blue set with designs along the sleeves. A stylish fit skirt with a slit up the back is in a grey milton wool. A pair of mary sue heels add to her height.

Relationships

Howard

Howard
Husband: (b. July 27th, 1895) Pure-Blood. Howard Yaxley married Dauphne Goshawk on May 1st, 1940. He is the last male in the Yaxley line and it’s no secret that he married young Dauphne (who is 20 years his junior) is expecting a son from her.

Howard Yaxley lost his wife many years ago trying to bear him the son his line is rather desperately in need of. While it's a touch awkward with the age difference they get along passably and are still trying to learn about each other. Such is the beast of arranged marriages. Part of Dauphne doesn't enjoy the idea she might as well be some breeder, but the other part understands the tricky situation the Yaxleys are in.

Lillian

Lillian
Stepdaughter - The fact that they are only 7 years apart and could be sisters does make things a bit more than awkward. Dauphne just hopes she can make it clear that she doesn't want to replace Lillian's mother. She's just doing her best to see that the Yaxley name can carry on with a male heir.

Virg

Virg
Father: (b. May 16th, 1893) Pure-Blood. Virgil Goshawk VI is the Healer-In-Charge of the Magical Bugs and Diseases branch at St. Mungo's he also has a second specialty in Artefact Accidents. This has affected his family life only in so much as he was taken away from family events every now and then. However it was minimally done. Soon after, he always makes up for the absences. He is fast man, he has a lot to do and a family to get home to, and so he speaks and does everything with quickness. This does not diminish his amicable nature however; he's fast, but friendly too.

Gwen Goshawk nee Brown
Mother: (b. June 9th, 1894) Pure-Blood. The glue that holds the Goshawk family together. A former nurse at St. Mungo's Hospital it is where she met Virgil and prodded her parents to approach his for a match. The match was made and Gwen was a very happy girl. When Unetta was conceived she left the Hospital to focus on her family. 9 girls later, Gwen is the only one that can seemingly cut the shenanigans to a quick halt with a particular loud *ahem*. She is not overbearing with the use of it, fully letting her girls have their fun and work it out amongst themselves. This manner of parenting has made her girls have quite the tight knit if chaotic bond of sisterhood.

Unetta

Unetta
First Born Sister: (b. November 23, 1914) Pure-Blood. Unetta is the first born of the Goshawks Sisters. Quite often she has a sweet disposition when around company, but said disposition always has a tinge of rambunctiousness hiding immediately under the surface, waiting to boil over. And boil over it did, especially when it came to her sisters. Not only was she a trickster, but she liked to play pranks on her own siblings. As she gained more sisters, she would start to bring one or more of them into her ploys amongst their other siblings. She graduated after NEWTS in 1932 from Hufflepuff House. Age has only slightly tempered her rambunctiousness of her youth. Not one to be good with authority, especially Goblin authority, Unetta became a free-lance Curse-Breaker Relic Hunter. Unetta married Coakley Prewett May 1st, 1933. Her job and personal wishes has a future family on the back burner a bit. She wants a family, just in a few years at least.

Trinity

Trinity
Third Born Sister: (b. September 13th, 1916) Pure-Blood. Trinity has followed in her parents footsteps and is a Journeyman Healer at St. Mungo's Hospital. Her goal is to become a midwife and eventually, hopefully become Healer-In-Charge like her father is of Magical Bugs and Diseases.

Pedwara

Pedwara
Fourth Born Sister: (b. August 23rd, 1917) Pure-Blood. Pedwara is a very talented Jeweler. It's quite the usual affair to receive hand-crafted jewelry from Pedwara for gifting occasions. Bit by bit she'll bestow whole sets of glittering artwork on friends and family. Giving someone a bracelet on their birthday, then a necklace for Christmas and then earrings on Valentine's Day, etc.

Sioned

Sioned
Fifth Born Sister: (b. July 10th, 1918) Pure-Blood. Sioned otherwise known as ‘Ned’ to the sisters works at the Ministry of Magic in the Department of International Magical Cooperation (I.M.C.) as a Clerk. Sioned is very particular about things and is the most serious of the girls. This of course made her quite the target of her sister’s pranks and shenanigans. There truly is not ‘black sheep’ in the Goshawk sisters, but if one was forced to be selected it would be Sioned. Despite her mild stammer, Sioned has quite the gift for languages. In fact she created an original language just for her and her sisters to speak.

Tangwystle

Tangwystle
Sixth Born Sister: (b. June 10th, 1919) Pure-Blood. 'Whistler' is an example of irony that the second most serious of the Goshawk Girls (Sioned earning first place) would end up working at a Joke Shop. If and when she's asked why, her answer usually is, "Because laughter is my favorite sound." She graduated after her O.W.L.s from Hufflepuff House in 1935. Immediately she went to work for Gambol and Japes Joke Shop in the Mysticked District as a Shop Girl.

Romilda

Romilda
Seventh Born Sister: (b. May 9th, 1920) Pure-Blood. “Milly the Mouth” is her affectionate nickname. She claims it gladly and uses it as her On-Air persona for the shows she has on the Wizarding Wireless Network. Romilda is never one to be afraid to tell someone what she thinks for good or for bad. Graduating after O.W.L.s in 1936 out of Hufflepuff House in Hogwarts she started at the Network as a gopher and assistant to Phineas Black. Eventually after she gave her boss an amazingly clever dressing down did she get her first show, an opinion piece hour. She also handles a set a day of being a music D.J.. There is a rumor around the WWN that Milly has feelings for her old boss and visa versa. But nothing has been confirmed nor denied that there’s anything romantic going on between her and Phineas.

Diadema

Diadema
Eighth Born Sister: (b. April 1st, 1921) Pure-Blood. Diadema was always the one that wandered off. So it is no surprise to anyone that after the Gryffindor graduated after N.E.W.T.s in 1939 she went right into training to be a Placement Agent for the Department of Magical Transportation in the Portkey Office. Now she gets paid to wander off, so to speak.

Miranda

Miranda
Ninth Born Sister: (b. March 17th 1922) Pure-Blood. Poor Miranda, being the youngest was quite the target on her poor head. However all of the pranks and teasing her sisters heaped upon her had its silver lining. It honed within her a talent for charms, even so far as to have a mind and gift towards creating spells. The Charms prodigy from Hufflepuff House at Hogwarts graduated in 1940 and was recruited by the Ministry for Magic’s Director of M.A.C. to be in the Accidental Magic Reversal Squad.
