Background Information:
Nora was born into some of the higher ranks of the wizarding world due to her parents, Michean and Sona Selnius, having very important jobs at the Ministry of Magic. She has three brothers, Joseph, Langston, and Laon. The three of them always tease her for being the baby of the family, but she doesn’t mind.

Her behavior:
Nora is a very mixed child. Most of the time, she is highly optimistic sweetheart who loves to help others, especially those looking for a friend. Her emotional stability is something to be questioned due to her many breakdowns in the past. Nowadays, she has learned to control her anxiety and depression better, but if pushed, she will go into a frenzy of self-deprecating behavior or inexplicable rage. This is something she is looking to fix, but doesn’t know how to yet.

Her speculation:
Nora has always been able to speak to any kind of animal, especially ones that weren’t magical creatures, ever since she was a small child. In recent years, this has made Nora question her true origins. No one else in her family seems to posses this power, so where could she have gotten it from? Currently, she is looking into the matter intensely, trying to find others like her and their reasons for the ability. So far, she hasn’t found anyone.

Her beliefs:
Nora, as stated before, is a very optimistic girl most of the time. She knows of the horrors of the world, having previously come upon a few of them, and hates them with a passion. Her solution, which isn’t to good for her mental health, is to brush it off to some obscure corner of her mind, left to never be thought about again unless brought up. She tends to either get violent or extremely sensitive when someone brings up anything bad in the world. Nora simply hates when it happens, but her emotions are sometimes just too much for her to handle.

Her relationships:
Nora has a very strong bond with her brothers. Throughout her life, her brothers had always helped her wherever they could. If she had a panic attack, was being socially awkward, or just a bit too shy, they always given her tips to better the situation. She loves them very much for that.

As for her parents, Nora doesn’t have a good relationship with them. In her lifetime, they have always treated her as the “unwanted” one, or the “freak” of her family. Their strong support of the Dark Arts had always scared Nora immensely, and because of this, she usually tends to stay away from them as much as possible. Her love for muggle culture has brought up many arguments between herself and her parents. They always tell her to be proud of her “pure-blood” heritage, which always makes her hate the fact she is one more. Because of the constant fights, Nora and her parents are always standing on a thin wire, which at almost any given moment, could collapse and hurt them all gravely.
