Daphne Morgan

[daphne]

Name: Daphne Morgan
Age: 16 (5th year)
House: Ravenclaw
Blood: Muggle born
Wand: Hazel, 12” strand of Sphinx mane

Personality:
Daphne is methodical; she will have a logical thought pattern that will get her to an answer. Instinct is something she does not go by as over the many years that humans have walked on this earth instinct has got people into more trouble then it has saved…and trouble is something Daphne prefers to avoid. Her days are spent either in the common room reading, classes studying or in the library studying.

On the few occasions she lets her hair down Daphne knows how to have a good time, like any sane human being she loves to laugh and her sharp tongue and bluntness normally causes a few smiles but also can get her in a few difficult situations. However her quick wit and intelligence she can normally get herself out of most close calls with only a few scrapes to show for it.

Appearance:
Daphne has never seen herself as anything spectacular compared to some of the other girls in the school. She had shoulder length black hair with her fringe swept to one side so that it does not get in her way when she is trying to read her books.
At first glance it looks like Daphne is pouting most of the time, but that is just the look that fills her face when she is thinking, and she is thinking for most of the day. But when something takes her fancy a radiant smile appears on her face and her eyes gleam with playfulness.
She is not normally one to wear bright or fashionable clothes, just ones she feels comfortable in, so on days when she does not need to wear school uniform she will be found in jeans, a t-shirt and a light jacket.

History:
Daphne was born in South Wales just outside of Cardiff. They were a typical muggle family her farther would commute into Cardiff every morning to work in an office for a big muggle multinational company and her mother was a dinner lady at the local primary school. There home life was enjoyable at the time, Daphne gets on well with her older sister Eleanor and they are close as most sisters are. However it was not until her farther was relocated did things start to change. Her fathers department changed and he was sent to work in the hustle and bustle of London meaning they had to move away from their family and friends and out of Wales.

Her mother did not take to the transaction of cultures well, she worked in a small corner shop and hated it, he fathers hours increased and he was spending more time in his office and travelling to other branches around Britain then time spent at home. Eleanor loved being so close to London, she was old enough to go into the city by herself and quickly made friends with those around her at her new high school, but for Daphne she did not like it mainly because weird things kept happening she could not explain…and as a result it put pressure on her parents relationship and one day her father her went on a very long business trip only a week before Daphne got her letter from Hogwarts.

It was the best thing to ever happen to her, it gave her the freedom she longed for yet again and the new experiences that was promised to her by London but never happened. She is learning so much and everyday she finds out something else that just expands her knowledge of the wizarding world. Ravenclaw was the perfect house for her as she met like minded people who wanted to talk about intelligent things…not which muggle pop star was hotter.

Her father did eventually come home, and Daphne’s parents are patching things up. They have both changed jobs and they are planning to move back to Wales, with their youngest away in Scotland for most of the year and their eldest off to university it seemed the right time.
