CURIOUS Persephone wants to know everything she can about the world around her. She loves to explore new ideas and learn. She is more than happy to poke around to find out answers. ENERGETIC Persephone rarely slows down, mentally or physically. Everything is exciting to her and if she gets going on something she’s passionate about it’s difficult to get a word in edgewise. She fills every minute of her time with things she considers exciting and hates to be bored. KIND Persephone treats everyone she meets with respect until given a reason to do otherwise. She genuinely cares about people and does what she can to help others. If anyone ever needs a friend, she’s there. RESILIENT Nothing can stop Persephone for long. When something doesn’t go her way she immediately gets back on the horse and tries again. If something doesn’t work she figures out what went wrong and tries again. PLAYFUL Persephone loves to make people laugh and feel good. She can find fun in most situations. This can lead to a healthy amount of spontaneity MISCHIEVOUSPersephone isn’t afraid to cause a little trouble.

xxxBACKSTORYxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx
EARLY CHILDHOOD Persephone, along with her twin brother Archie, were born to Hespera and Castor Reed. They live in a property in Kent where Hespera breeds magical creatures and Castor works as a herbalist. Persephone displayed signs of magic from an early age. On more than one occasion she made a dead flower grow by laughing. She tried on an occasion or two to use magic (which she had zero actual control over) to get at any grouchy neighbors but her mother was luckily able to thwart her, leading to long conversations about the Statute of Secrecy.
She had a good childhood, getting to see both of her parents’ work up close. When she and Archie weren’t doing homeschooling with their mother they were out exploring and learning whatever they could. She made friends with pretty much anyone she could get her hands on and would then present them to Archie who had been busy reading or whatever it was he did.
Persephone had no real complaints about her life but was bursting when she received her Hogwarts letter. She was finally getting a new place to explore and hopefully a whole other batch of friends.
SCHOOL YEARS ■ FIRST YEAR Persephone arrived at Hogwarts and was sorted into Hufflepuff. She loved everything about Hogwarts and was happy to get involved with everything. She joined several clubs and became Hufflepuff's new beater, much to her surprise.
■ SECOND YEARMost of Persephone’s second year was spent engrossed in quidditch. After having a less-than-stellar performance in her first year, Persephone dedicated herself to practicing. Every time she had a spare moment she was practicing quidditch or just doing a lot of push-ups. She did better this season so it seems to have paid off at least a little.
■ THIRD YEARPersephone was once again focused on quidditch and decided she was going to pursue it as a career, though she has plenty of time to work on that.
■ FOURTH YEAR Persephone had a pretty good year. Everything went pretty well with quidditch, even though they didn't manage to secure the cup. However, things in the personal department were much more exciting to her. On a snowy day Persephone helped "save" one of her classmates, Adi, from the grasp of the Scotland snow. After that the two found themselves talking more and more. Nothing official has come from it, but Persephone has a good feeling about him.

xxxBACKSTORYxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx
EARLY CHILDHOOD Archie was born along with his twin sister Persephone. Archie was always the quieter of the pair. He and Persephone weren’t total opposites, but she definitely ended up with the extravert gene in a way that he didn’t. He was a few steps behind her in terms of eagerness but he was still happy to spend time with her. Especially when it came to exploration.
Unlike Persephone, he was also perfectly happy to stay at home. There were days when she would run off and make new friends while he would stay behind and watch his father work. He found there was plenty he could learn just from staying close to his parents.
Just like Persephone, he was beyond thrilled to receive his Hogwarts letter. To him, it was the beginning of a whole new chapter in his life.
SCHOOL YEARS
■ FIRST YEAR Archie was sorted into Hufflepuff along with Persephone. Though he would have been fine with wherever the sorting hat put him he was glad he was able to be with his sister.
Archie joined a few clubs and following his sister's lead tried out for the quidditch team where he was made a reserve. He's plenty happy to not be actively playing quite yet.
■ SECOND YEAR Archie had a pretty quiet second year at Hogwarts. Most of his time was spent in the library studying or helping Persephone practice quidditch (he was still happily on reserve). He was more than happy to live his life from the background for a bit. ■ THIRD YEAR Archie was glad to be starting his third year, especially because that meant getting into electives. He, unsurprisingly, took an immediate liking to Care of Magical Creatures and, surprisingly, Wandlore Studies. Really, he was just glad for any opportunity to learn new things. ■ FOURTH YEAR Archie's fourth year was mostly just a blur of clubs and classes. Most of his free time outside of classes was spent studying, whether that was about said classes, or some completely random subjects. He found himself becoming strangely drawn to photography after reading a series of books on the subject. He didn't mind spending so much time by himself, though he ended the year with a mental note to try to be at least a little more social in the year to come.
