Born into a family of English-Scottish Pure-Bloods, Elvira was expected to be proper and mature. Though she puts on this type of act for her dearest mother and father at important dinners and meetings, she's quite the ball of energy. She tends to make unnecessary jokes at home and pulls pranks on her elder siblings.

She knows all the dinner etiquette and mannerisms a young lady should have, but she prefers to show her true self upon meeting new people; An energetic, playful ball of light.
Though her family wishes for her to stop her immature ways, they don't say a word unless she completely steps out of line. She's known to run out into the garden and dirty up her dresses and it isn't uncommon for her to bring home muddy frogs. Keeping up her reputation as a static-charged, outgoing young lady, she tends to make quite a few friends.

Though she would never admit to it, Elvira has a favorite: Lisabetta Medici.
She would often visit Lisabetta's residence more than any other friend she made and try her best to convince the growing Medici to run out in the rain with her. 
After years of sneaking around and doing messy things 'proper women' shouldn't be doing, their friendship has grown intensely, even more so as they attend Hogwarts together.
Elvira still has her tendencies to run around and meet new people, but she always comes back to the one person she knows she can trust.

Elvira is a hyper and outgoing young lady. She spends her free time cracking jokes or just running around, trying to find new things to do/mess with. She's a bit sly and manipulative, but only when it's necessary (i.e., when she has to lie for being caught out after curfew).
Although she's a social butterfly, she does have fears and her own nightly terrors. She misses her family quite a bit but doesn't want to seem like a downer by bringing it up. She created an image for herself where she's always happy and she doesn't want to dampen that image by admitting to a few weaknesses.
She often stresses over her classes and schoolwork, finding that she gets extremely anxious whenever a quiz of some sort rolls around. 
Yet, no matter how much she tries to hide this,  she always ends up venting to her close friend about her problems.

She tries her best to please those around her and will do anything to put a smile on someone's face, whether she knows them well or not.
