Personality

Positive Attributes:
Florence is a self-reliant female. Her judgements are often based on her own instincts and events that have led her to that conclusion. She isn’t an impulsive person. Most major things she does undergo some form of thinking and planning. Florence likes stability. She isn’t accustomed to change, especially not a change that has happened too quickly. Florence is a very calm person. It is rare for her to lose her composure and display anger and aggression. Anger is something Florence doesn’t like to face. It scares her. An angry Florence is certainly someone to face. Unlike some people who prefer to use verbal insults, Florence would much rather use physical force. Or throw some curses.

There might be some who accuse Florence of being too stubborn. In a way, that is true. Florence often sticks to her opinion. But that stubbornness leads to two of Florence’s defining qualities. She is a faithful and loyal person. When you are her friend, she commits herself entirely to the friendship. The few close friends she has are always treasured. If she believes in something, she is steadfast in her alliances and will remain so through thick and thin. Florence is patient and a listener. She seldom grows impatient unless a certain event has occurred too many times beyond her limit. Florence likes to listen. It makes her feel important in a way because someone has actually sought her out to talk to her. It also makes her feel good about herself.
Negative Attributes:
Florence can be rather sensitive. Any comment or remark can be taken negatively and she will get easily offended or hurt. But she hides it well. That is a fault. She is always hiding her true feelings in order not to hurt other people even if they do not deserve her kindness. She doesn’t know why she does it but it has been in her nature since young. She sees it as a way of preventing herself from getting hurt. If no one knows the real her, then no one can hurt her. Florence doesn’t like competition. She doesn’t willingly take part in any of it. She doesn’t like the comparison. She knows it’s a daily part of life, being compared to someone but she dislikes being compared to anyone.

Childhood:
Amelia Travers and Terrence Nott were childhood sweethearts. They grew up next to each other in the outskirts of town where their fathers worked at a tannery. They married young, in their teens. Terrence soon followed his father’s footsteps and worked at the tannery. Amelia did odd jobs here and there to save up money so that they could start a family soon.

A year after they married, the Notts had a son. They named him Fabian, after Amelia’s father, who had passed away. Two years later, a daughter joined them. They called her Florence, a name chosen by Amelia herself. The family was now complete and happy. Florence’s childhood was a contented one, even if her family was poor.

Florence never showed any signs of magic and neither did her brother. So it was a total surprise to their family when a letter arrived, stating that Fabian had been accepted to Hogwarts. When it was Flo’s turn, she was absolutely thrilled. Her brother had been sorted into Slytherin and as it turned out, been extremely talented in the art of magic. Florence was sorted into Ravenclaw, but she didn’t think it mattered much.

Her Hogwarts years went by and she made friends along the way. One particular person caught her eye and that was Andros Quigley. Florence had no idea how to deal with her burgeoning feelings, much less the differences in their social status. But they soon ended up together, even if it was kept a secret. Now that he has a betrothed, what’s going to happen?
