PERSONALITY
Personality Description:
- A- A is for apple; the Big Apple. Although Welsh in origin, Flora loved the big city life, and the drama that it brought. The theater, the parties, the nightlife, it was a heavenly place for this theater queen.
- B- B is for belly dancing, Flora’s cario work out of choice. This sexy, enticing dance may have been the reason for her belly ring, or her belly ring may have been a reason for this hobby. Either way, the sexy and mysterious dance is close to her theatric heart.
- C- C is for culture. Flora is a world traveler, having taken to a plane the day of graduation. She has been to thirteen countries and four continents. This people-loving witch took to partying across the world, leading to a new home, new experiences and a new family.
- D- D is for daddy problems. This syndrome comes with several common side effects, including failure to recognize male authority figures, capability to hold grudges for years, and promiscuous sexual adventures; all of which Flora has.
- E- E is for empathetic. Flora has always been keen on picking up others emotions, and she tends to work with it. This is one of the reasons she made such a talented actress. She can take the feel of a room and bend it to her will. Some might call it magic, she just calls it acting.
- F- F is for flowers. Flora cannot escape flowers…even in the city of cement. Often she has nightmares of the flower shop in Wales, but more often than not she’s just worried about the way they trigger her allergies.
- G- G is for, obviously, glamour. Shirking her simple beginnings, Flora took up the fabulous lifestyle, and would tell you her favorite color is sparkles if she didn’t know any better. You want to impress her, give her something shiny.
- H- H is for holiness…or lack thereof. Flora is a firm atheist, and no one can tell her otherwise. She likes statistics, and was convinced God died when her dad walked out the door.
- I- I is for insomnia. It’s something that has plagued Flora since her childhood, and often she requires a few simple charms or caffeine to keep her up and going. If you catch her before coffee, she just might kill you.
- J- J is for justice. Flora prides herself on her sense of justice, and her capability to act on it. While being a social chameleon, and often looking like a best friend, Flora will drop all social pretenses.
- K- K is for kinder chocolate. White chocolate, particularly kinder, is the horrid weak spot of Flora who takes pride on her form and figure.
- L- L is for the lake that she grew up on. Water has always been a strong connection to water, and finds it to be peaceful. In her school days, and even know, you can always find her in the black lake, diving for the giant squid.
- M- M is for music. Music is the shape of Flora’s soul; she will walk to the song that she wakes up with her head until it becomes her own creation. Her favorite instrument, besides her voice, is her violin.
- N- N is for her nose. Flora hates her nose, and luckily her daughter did not inherit it. She considered plastic surgery for a good part of her adult life, although her funds as an theater actress didn’t quite cut it.
- O- O is for Orleans…New Orleans. Mardi Gras has a special place in her heart, after conceiving her daughter there six years ago after catching some beads and a young wizard’s eye.
- P- P is for practice. If you don’t think she doesn’t practice everything, you’re wrong. It goes beyond lines and music. She practices her smile, coordinating outfits, and her walk. She doesn’t let anyone in to the real Flora.
- Q- Q is for quiet. Flora has always had a phobia of the quiet. She will put music on at night, and she will sing when she’s alone. Not for practice, but to make sure she can’t hear the loneliness.
- R- R is for rocks. More specifically, Maine, which was about as exciting as rocks in her opinion. Her father’s cabin in the middle of nowhere. Monotony is synonymous with father, which is synonymous with rocks.
- S- S is for sex. Plain, hard sex. She has it. Quite a bit.
- T- T is for, obviously enough, theater. It has leaked much further into her life, affecting the way she carried herself. Flora is a different person with everyone except those dearest to her.
- U- Unique, would be to cliché. U is for ukulele. A secret skill of hers she picked up in her travels to Hawaii.
- V- V is for Violet. Violet is her mother, and about as flaky and unpredictable as her daughter. She showed Flora that one man, one home, and one job weren’t vital in life. Sure enough, Flora couldn’t tell you the name of her daughter’s father.
- W- W is for Willow, the five year old pride of Flora. Flora dubbed the tattoo on her back the last wild thing in her life before taking on the title of young working mother. She holds her tender and loving side for her daughter, who she loves more than life.
- X- X is for…X-Ray. Hers has plenty of cracks from a life of travel, adrenaline hunting, and partying. She has a proud collection of all of her casts. They are like memories for her.
- Y- Y is for yelping. Yelping is probably what you would call her laughter. When she laughs, it’s a high pitched sound, and she tilts her head back all the way. It’s quite the sight.
- Z- Z is for zodiac, that Flora follows religiously as a Virgo. It’s a trait of her sign. She would know.

History:
Flora was born in the countryside of Wales to her troubled mother and father. Her father left early on, and her mother moved into the flower shop of her parents. She grew up with her muggle parents, coming into her powers which were accompanied by confusion and anger towards her dad. When they started introducing plays and books to her in primary school, she found it was the best way to be someone new; and she loved every minute of it.
Upon receiving her Hogwarts letter, her father contacted her again, and insisted she spent summers with him in Maine to learn about the Wizarding side of her family. She did okay in school, taking most of her free time for parties and late night rendezvous rather than homework. Still she passed, and went on to travel before finding her heart in New York. Acting and music became her life, although it didn’t quite pay the bills. Often she housed boyfriends, whether for their strategic connections, wallets, or ability to make her laugh, but none stuck.
Willow came along after Mardi Gras of 2015, and found her life turned upside down. After two years of struggling, no longer able to rely on men to support her baby. She gave in and moved back to her mother’s before finding a job to support herself at Hogwarts. There she teaches music, thanks to the help of an old friend on the staff.
