Name: Niobe Wattson
Age: 16
Birthday: February 2nd
Sign: Aquarius
Year: 6th
House: Hufflepuff
Wand: Apple and Unicorn Hair, 9 inches, Whippy - This wand is a docile wand that, while it wants to help its witch, hates to be overwhelmed. It can be very effective and handy with charms and transfigurations, but it fears being overwhelmed. As such, its best talents are in the more subtle magics than in the bombastic, all powerful charms
Physical Description: Red hair down to her shoulders, bright blue eyes, freckles, slight frame and only 5 feet 5 inches
Pets: Apollo, a small speckled brown owl and a gift from her father
Family:
James Wattson (Father, Muggle)
Lyssa Wattson (Mother, Witch)
Phillip Wattson (Brother, Squib)
Alexander Wattson (Brother, Squib)
Brief History:
Niobe was born in Nigeria to James and Lyssa Wattson while they were on assignment for a medical association they both worked for. Both parents were British but spent most of their lives traveling around the world doing medical work for underpriveledged countries with a program like Doctors Without Borders. James worked as a doctor and Lyssa a Healer since she was a witch. Niobe was named such because Lyssa was obsessed with Greek culture and loved the name. Her younger squib brothers by 2 years, Phillip and Alexander, were also named Greek names.
Niobe spent the majority of her life traveling around the world with her parents and brothers. As such she has been to many continents and seen many cultures. Seeing her parents do work in healing those who needed it she became inspired to work in the medical field since she was young. When she was old enough to start showing magic she began to receive homeschooling from Lyssa while they were on the road. Niobe never showed any talent with a wand from the moment they placed one in her hand. They began to think she was a Squib like her brothers when she began showing a greater talent with Potions. It has been a point of stress with Niobe and her mother that she has never been good with wand work.
When Niobe was 15 she decided to stop her life and travel and settle down to make friends. She had an excellent relationship with her father and brothers and was loathe to leave them but things with her mother had gotten stressful and she wanted to get away. Lyssa and James finally buckled and sent Niobe to Firefox University. At the same time Phillip and Alexander made the same choice and elected to be sent to a boarding school in Britain.
Upon arriving at Firefox Niobe was sorted into Hufflepuff, something that widened the divide between herself and her mother. Lyssa had been a Slytherin and so had both of her parents and so the house choice was disappointing. Niobe was somewhat glad however to not be sorted into her mother’s house and enjoyed her time at school, though her wandwork still has yet to improve any.
