PREFERRED PRONOUNS: She/her

AGE: 23

BIRTH DATE: January 31, 1995

TEAM: Puddlemere United

POSITION: Chaser

BLOOD STATUS: Half-blood

PERSONALITY/BACKGROUND : [No more than 800 words. Remember that detail is key. We want to really get a feel for your character and how you see them. Build upon the skeleton’s that we gave you and make the character your own]

Aurora has a muggle for a father and witch for a mother, and her life before Beauxbatons was extremely normal, if not very isolated. Her mother and father were not wealthy, nor did they have any intention of gaining wealth. They did not want notoriety, they did not want recognition. They just wanted to live a happy, simple life, with their amazing daughter. She knew she had magic in her bones, but her mother and father fought heavily to maintain as normal of a childhood as they could for their little girl, their beautiful baby girl with her soft smiles and tinkling giggles. Stepping into Beauxbatons for the first time was an experience unlike anything else, with its flagrant shows of opulence and wealth. The silk robes that she wore felt simply amazing, and she felt so small. She didn’t like feeling small.

She found school easy, and flying easier. She loved charms and she loved spells, and dueling was amazing, but she also loved racing through the skies. Difficult things weren’t worth the effort. She knew what she was good at, and she loved what she was good at, so what was the point in trying things that were far too difficult? Aurora had always been this weird dichotomous mix of ambitious and lazy, a mix of someone who works hard and someone who would rather not work at all. Some could say that she worked for what she got, and others could say that she got everything handed to her, and both would be true. On quiet nights, when she was in bed with all the lights off, Aurora would thank every being, every deity out there for each opportunity that fell into her lap. And then she would get up the next day, and play her best, do the showiest moves on the pitch. She would talk to interviewers, charming them with her smile and wit. She would go to parties, interacting with everyone, making friends with the people who were important and the people who were good. Because luck has carried her this far, but luck may not carry her to the end. She learned long ago that if you’re a nobody, you don’t get a voice— so she needs to be somebody, even when the luck fades away.

Becoming a pro-Quidditch player wasn’t how she expected her life to go, but she took it in stride. Playing for the Montrose Magpies had been an experience, and the thrill she got while speeding through the air, a Quaffle under her arm was something that she loved. No. She adored it. Leaving the Magpies and joined Puddlemere United was frustrating. Aurora had found her niche, found what worked for her, and she hated having to tweak that, having to change that for this new team that she wasn’t even sure she would like. The idea for Wood’s Angels came at the perfect time, though, and it allowed for her to step into the spotlight once more, while also providing a great role model for young girls, something she valued.

Aurora is a very extroverted person, who is willing to make friends with anybody and everybody, even the people she doesn’t like. She doesn’t really want to give the United bad press, nor does she want to sever any connections before they could be fostered, so being nice is a given, in her eyes. With that said, she doesn’t want to be friends with people that she genuinely doesn’t like. That’s just stupid, and far too much effort. She’s the person whose laughter draws the attention and smiles of everybody around her. She’s likeable, but she can be lazy and she can find it hard to put effort into things that aren’t fun. Luckily for her, she finds Quidditch fun.

Headcanons:

Aurora would always cherish the memories she made at Beauxbatons, but coming home for the summers was sobering. One of her neighbors was sick, and each time she saw him that glow of life in his eyes grew dimmer and dimmer. He was younger than her, for god’s sake, and he was already gone. It hurt her heart, and every summer she came back she would remind herself how incredibly lucky she has been, to live the way she has. And it hurt, to see him lose his vibrant energy, the thing that made him so uniquely him. She had babysat him once, when his days were still filled with color and laughter and delight. By the time she had graduated Beauxbatons, he was nothing but a memory, a name on a gravestone. When she joined Puddlemere, she heard from someone (who knew someone, who knew someone else, who knew someone else’s friend—) that St. Mungo’s had a children’s section. The first time, she went alone, spending as much time as she could there. Then, she didn’t go back for a month. But she forced herself to make a habit out of it, because it wasn’t about her. It was about those kids.

She loves expensive things, but she also loves simple things. She may adore those Pierre Hermé macarons, but, nothing could beat a freshly baked chocolate chip cookie.

She wasn’t bullied at school, per se, but sometimes people could be mean, making comments about who she was, where she was from. After all, she wasn’t from Paris. She was from a little town in Portugal, a place that nobody knew. Nothing could be done, because it was one voice against many others.

She can speak English, Portuguese, some French, and very basic Spanish. She can read Portuguese, English, and some Spanish, and even less French. Aurora picked up words and phrases in French in Beauxbatons, and she can answer reporters. Her mother speaks Portuguese, so that’s where Portuguese comes from. Her first language, however, is English.

She is up to date with muggle things, because honestly, she loves her iPhone because she doesn’t need to leave bed unless she has to.

(also um i have a mock-blog that’s mostly just aesthetics/muse stuff at aurora-kent.tumblr.com !)
