Description
Hattie is a girl of around average height, with a slender figure. Her hair is generally seen as an untamed mass of dark curls, which she ties back for practical classes like potions and herbology. Warm brown eyes sit just a little wide in her oval face, and her nose is slightly pointed. Her fingernails are cut short but a little dirt still manages to remain underneath them.
Background
Harriet was the first child born to the pure-blood Healer, Leon, and his Muggle wife, Nancy, who was a nurse. She was also the first of the Wilkins' children to show signs of magic. Toys which had been put away would find themselves once more in the little girl's cot and the music box which played her lullaby would soothe her to sleep without her parents having wound it.
Wand
Twelve inches inches, hawthorn, supple, with a unicorn hair core.
Pet
Hattie has a barn owl named Urania.
As soon as she could toddle around, she loved playing in the garden. Her mother gave her a space of her own in the greenhouse where she could grow whatever she liked— a few flowers, at first, but over time her garden developed into a collection of extraordinary plants brought home from Diagon Alley by her father. And her passion didn't stop at growing them; many happy hours were spent studying world botany, and the properties of plants, both magical and mundane.
September 1, 1935 was met with great excitement by Hattie, for it was her first day at Hogwarts. She was sorted into Ravenclaw and fully embraced her new house, throwing herself into her studies. Herbology was, of course, her favorite subject, but she also showed an innate aptitude for potions and enjoyed astronomy.
The young witch spent much more time with her Muggle grandparents than her magical ones, given the frosty relationship her father had with his own parents. She enjoyed engaging in tactical chess matches with her grandpa and listening to her grandma tell stories. One year she received a camera from them for Christmas. Pleased with the opportunity for a new hobby, she joined the arts club at school, happily bringing her photographs home in the holidays.
Quirks
Green Thumb | From a young age, Hattie has had a talent for gardening. She even believes that plants have their own language. |
Practical | When something needs to be done, Hattie gets on with it. She's not one to be squeamish or to fuss about getting dirty. |
Timid | Hattie is quiet and a little shy, avoiding confrontation like the plague. Once you get to know her, she's warm and loving. |
Wealth: Well-To-Do | Hattie's father is Healer in Charge at St. Mungo's and the Wilkins family have never wanted for anything. |
RP Hooks
Half-blood | Hattie's father is a pure-blood who married a Muggle. Blood-purists would definitely have something to say on the matter! Hattie has a great love for both worlds. |
Ravenclaw | Maybe you've noticed Hattie with her nose in a potions book in the common room, or watering her plants in the dormitory. She's quiet, but ask her about what she's doing and she'll be happy to talk. |
Practiced Potioneer | Hattie does very well at potions, and is happy to lend a hand to those who need help. |
Phytophile | The windowsill nearest Hattie's bed is covered with potted plants. If you're interested in them too, or just need help with your herbology, talk to Hattie. |
