The Character
Name: Victoria Thompson
Nicknames (if any): Vicky, Vickster, V maybe
Age and year: 15 fifth year
Blood: Half-blood (rumoured traces of veela blood way back)
Wand: 9 ¼ Solid Dragon skin core
Personality: Warm hearted and kind to put it simply, Vicky tries perhaps too hard to be nice and kind to everyone, which doubtlessly gets a bit frustrating for others when she goes overboard. She’s a tendency to get clingy to her very best friends and is seldom seen without them. Generally excited and bubbly, yeah just a little dizzy from time to time, she’s a friendly and generous person, sometimes to friendly with guys, she’s a definite flirt though claims she doesn’t even know how to, she’ll get completely entranced and enraptured in a guy and whatever is going on in the world will be forgotten completely, she’ll in fact get far too reckless in trying to win their affections or holding onto them when she does get them. The problem is as soon as they start to reciprocate, even a little she’ll clam up and get incredibly nervous really quickly, she’ll continue to flirt claiming it’s harmless but there’ll be a definite edginess to the way she’ll talk to the guy.
Vicky works hard and is quite naturally talented with a varying number of lessons including Divination which she finds fascinating, she’ll work very hard when she needs to, completely leaving the world when exams loom all too close. She’ll rarely be found actually reading a book though, she’ll simply listen intently in listens and absorb the majority of it, then write it all up that night making loads of notes, somehow it works for her.
Appearance: She’d never admit it in a million years, but she really is beautiful, she’s got that certain elegance when walking, not overly swaying her hips in an alluring way, but simply walking. At first glance you can tell she’s this nearly ethereal otherworld beauty (ooc yeah I love her to bits lol). With piercingly cool blue eyes her glance can hold a person to eye contact, send shivers down their spine (ooc or is that just me?) Slim with long flowing blond hair that tends to fall freely down her back Vicky isn’t all to conscious of her looks, like most girls she’ll curl her hair between her fingers when she’s in deep thought though.
History: Fathered by a rich young pureblood who couldn’t abate his lust for her mother, the marriage was clearly not made in heaven with both halves being far too young for the responsibility of rearing a child, her mother did her best but was often wanting to have a good time being in her early twenties and her father would often visit, usually without his proud family knowing, as they had been disgusted at him for falling to his lust for a pretty face when with his handsome features he could have had any pureblood girl and carried on the family name with honour. Yet he didn’t leave his child, Victoria named after his kindly Aunt who often aided them with not only money but general good parenting and worldly advice. He’d been unable to properly take care if his young daughter though and his family stubbornly refused him being able to bring his beloved wife and child into a home of their own. So Robert had done the best he could visiting at weekends whenever his busy shifts at the ministry were finished, Sophia had cared for little Victoria but being raised in a little flat in Burton wasn’t quite the best upraising a half-blood could hope for. With both parents working long hours and making the best of free time away from her Vicky was thankfully nearly adopted by her kindly neighbours; the Sauber family and she became very much like their fourth daughter. Vicky developed a very strong everlasting friendship with Heidi in particular being of the same age and sharing many traits in common. Of course they had their little arguments and fallings out, even saying they’d never speak to each other again, that had lasted about half an hour given their rather forgetful six year old minds at the time.
Throughout their years at Hogwarts they’ve had troubles but still stuck with each other through thick and thin, Vicky remembering pretty vividly her terror on their first day, which pretty much continued throughout their first year; thankfully Heidi had been there to buck up her spirits and help her through it all.
Only now things could so suddenly change, one simple event could change their firm friendship completely; tear it asunder possibly; a boy.
