Personality: Victoria is a very outgoing girl, she loves to talk and she is a horrible flirt. If you put a boy in front of her she will flirt, most of the time she doesn't even realize she is doing it, but when she does you should watch out cause she is extremely charming. She is also very intelligent enjoys reading a lot and learning new things. Loves the out of doors she was hard pressed to stay home when she was younger, if she didn't go camping every summer she felt awkward, she is usually the first one up enjoying a jog while watching the sun rise. She's also a real go getter, she sees what she wants and will go after it. She doesn't like to hear the word no doesn't like it and tends to ignore it most of the time. She can be very outspoken not taking anything from anyone and speaking her mind even if it bothers others. She's also a good friend when you are friends with her she will give you the shirt off her back if you need it. She cares for people and cares for them deeply which is why if you cross her you stay on her bad side forever. She's not a very forgiving person and tends to hold grudges which she knows is unhealthy but she can't help it.
Appearance: Victoria is rather tall for a girl she stands at about 6 feet tall with flats on. She has long curlyish dark brown hair that falls down to her back which she loves to wear down because of the way it blows in the wind. She has the most unusual eyes but they are her favorite part about her because they are so very rare, she inherited them from her great grandmother on her mother's side, they are a beautiful shade of violet. She has full pink lips and she loves to wear lipstick that makes them stand out. She keeps herself in tip top shape by watching what she eats and exercising almost everyday which created one of those hourglass figures women are so very fond of.
History: Victoria was born to Diane and Eugene Potter in Blackpool England they lived a very modest life there her mother being a seamstress and her father a teacher at the local public school. They met when Eugene walked into the store Diane was working at needing some alterations done to a pair of pants he needed for his job interview. The two hit it off and were inseparable they married a year later and a year after that they brought a new life into the world and they named her Victoria. Her life was a nice one and her parents did their best to make sure she was happy.
The only issue was that as Victoria grew older her father could tell that there was something different about her. Diane knew what it was but seeing as how she hadn't told her husband what she really was she tried to hide it but once Victoria manged to levitate her father to the ceiling the truth had to come out. Luckily, her father took the news well, and when Victoria turned 5 she was taught what she really was and that was a half witch. Her mother did her best to teach Vicky how to control her gifts and not use them in front of other children since she was attending muggle primary schools. The one thing she didn't know about was Hogwarts. As she finished her last year of fifth grade, she had just turned 11 on July 1st when she received a letter by of all things owl. After jumping back in shock she picked up the letter that had fallen on the floor and when she read it she spoke to her mother and finally had it all explained to her.
She spent seven amazing years at Hogwarts learning about her powers, and how to use them in a responsible way. After graduating she returned home unsure of what direction her life should take and still missing school horribly. After a few years she heard of an opening for History of Magic Professor at Hogwarts and decided to apply.
