Status:
Half-blood
Nationality:
Welsh
Residence:
Fishguard, Wales
Function:
Second year, Hufflepuff
Wand:
31,3 cm chestnut wood and phoenix feather
Personality Description:
Eira is a very excitable, enthusiastic girl. She often asks many questions both in class and outside of it, and absolutely loves learning new information- however, she doesn't do all too well in school due to her focus issues and hyper-fixations on the most trivial things. She doesn't know many people well, but she does her best to be very amiable and positive around potential friends. Eira moves constantly, whether it be tracing the edges of a quill, drumming her fingers on a desk, or simply taking in every detail of her surroundings.
She makes simple jewelry, whether it be a twisted bracelet or a flower crown, and loves to make accessories for her friends. Her skills aren't phenomenal by any means, but she has been working at it for some time and takes pride in her creations. Eira played softball while in muggle Wales, and is thrilled at the concept of Quidditch. She also enjoys the fantastical worlds that books provide, but often finds herself hard-pressed to focus on printed stories.


Physical Description:
With very short, fluffy blonde hair and hazel-brown eyes, you would think Eira would be dress a bit more on the colorful side, but she usually prefers dark clothing. Anything lacy, draping, or even slightly gothic piques her interest. She enjoys accessorizing with rings.

At 4 feet, 8 inches, she is rather diminutive in height, but she usually wears 1-inch platformed sneakers that increase her self-confidence in multitudes but often clash with her outfits.

History:
Eira grew up in Fishguard, Wales, a coastal town. She attended a muggle public school. Her mother, Catrina, is an artist and muggle who moved to the area after Eira's wizard father, Osian, left on a trip to advance his career in photography. Sadly, he died during a train crash before he made it to his destination. Eira was only three when this occurred, and while she does feel grief over this loss, she never really connected with him enough for it to be as world-shattering as it was for her mother. Eira trusts her mother completely, and loves her dearly.
Eira began to develop magic around the age of seven; she is a very active, adventurous child, and at first her magic manifested very subtly- when she fell climbing trees, she never got injured quite as much as she should have, and she could always leap a little farther than a normal girl would have. As she got older, it became a bit more recognizable. She could find things she had lost a long ago with just a bit of digging, and wild animals such as deer seemed to simply shy away rather than run when she encountered them.
When she told her mother about these oddities, she was thrilled. Osian had been able to do these things too, and the connection to him was heartwarming to Catrine. When the letter to Hogwarts came, she fully supported Eira in attending the school.
Eira had many good acquaintances, but never any truly meaningful friendships, and she hopes to remedy that during her time in Hogwarts. Animals (mainly cats) are of utmost interest to her, and if allowed, she would take care of at least five. Being around them is pretty much the only time she can reign in her energy (so as not to scare them, of course).
