Lilith Arachne is an eleven-year-old girl with gentle blue eyes that appears silver under certain lighting and golden brown hair flowing down to mid-back. She is considered pale and also small for her age. She is 139 cm tall; that would be because she just turned eleven on her way to Hogwarts.

My A is for A
My R is for Reign
My V is for Vendetta though I don’t have it in my name
My C is for Curse
My N is for Numb
But my E is for Elusive and that would be enough
The T is for Tides and the H is for Heights
The W is Waiting for the ever-shining lights
The I is for Impossible, the L would be Lightning
for it would be never when my life started brightening...
The S is a Snake but the R is a Raven
All the past misdoings would not be forgiven
G is Genesis, of everything done
in the name of Morning, when everything won
is lost. Forever. In the night of the Dusk.



Her name has little to do with her nature yet it represents her completely. Lilith is a Jewish demon and Arachne is the Mother of Spiders in Greek mythology. Although she seems nothing like a demon or a spider lady, hints of demon-like traits lie at the very bottom of her nature. She is a cursed girl. Her birth was never supposed to happen; she caused her mother, Ramona Riverwright, to die of birth, then brought various disasters upon her remaining family—her father, Silas Arachne, unconsciously. Windows break by themselves. Doors slam. Many ghosts came to visit, all from her father’s dark past. This went on for about three years, with summer washing away the curse temporarily and winter bringing it to even higher tides. Her father decided this can’t go on. Using his knowledge of Dark Magic, he remade a Rememberall, creating a new, silver glass ball that holds all Lilith’s memory of her early life. He also added an ability for it to turn gold whenever something important is happening on a day. Then he erased her memories—all three years of it, because he believed this will at least temporarily wash away her curse—and tried to continue life. Fortunately, the curse lessened a lot; but by the time she was five it had returned to its “golden state”. Then, her father decided to send her to live at her grandmother’s house magically concealed in a nonexistent mountain in London, England. After two days of living in the house together, her father excused himself by saying he’s going to work. He never came back then.

Lilith was cursed because she was born in Azkaban; Ramona was framed by someone else while pregnant with her, and after about two weeks in the prison both the dementors and the birth of Lilith killed her.
Also due to her curse, Lilith attracts ghosts somehow but still have no power over them; she is very comfortable around dangerous beings like snakes, basilisks, lions, tigers, and the various magical beings, however they might not always be comfortable around her.


Her grandmother—Evana Arachne—was French and graduated from Ilvermorny. However she wanted Lilith to attend Hogwarts instead. Due to an accident while concealing her house, Evana wasn’t able to travel very long or speak more than three sentences at a time. Because of that, Lilith rarely talked to anyone, and never left the house for more than ten minutes. She learned about the outside world through Evana’s books; although, little to no real experience made her know nothing once actually exposed to the world outside. That would also be why she doesn’t like to interact with people, because to her people were more unpredictable and she doesn’t know how to anyway.

At her grandmother’s house, she had the attic. The attic was her room. However there was only a mattress on the ground, and there is next to nothing except that. All the books are in the library downstairs and she has next to no possessions, except the silver ball of memories. Even then she rarely uses her room; she has a habit of somehow escaping to the roof and sitting there until 2am each day. Lilith always ended up falling asleep then. She sometimes pulls an all-nighter; however that doesn’t really make any difference since she was quiet even with enough sleep.

Her first signs of magic that has nothing to do with her curse came when she was 7 years old. One time, she was on the roof as usual; however after she fell asleep she somehow managed to roll off the roof. However, she didn’t fall; she just floated in midair. Several more events like this happened for the next three years: sometimes she flies, sometimes she gets carried by the wind, other times are like this one(she fell but the air stopped her). Her letter from Hogwarts came two weeks before September 1st. Strangely, she was also born in September 1st, but the specific time is 9:13AM, which means she was a bit younger than the other first years, since she turned eleven on the train.

Lilith is usually quiet due to her past and also shy; she has trouble when speaking to other people except her grandmother and the stars. She is extra careful around people but when it comes to forbidden spaces she always ends up going into them, whether she wanted to or not—sometimes she goes by will, sometimes she’s lured in, sometimes she accidentally touches Portkeys. Whatever the case, she visited about twenty of those throughout her life. That got her into trouble about two times. For some reason she always seem to ‘disappear’ in the eyes of the others when she comes back from her unintended travels, shaking and exhausted.
