Phoebe Hamilton

Phoebe’s a very driven and motivated girl. If she wants something, she pushes the limits to get it, and never gives in. When she first started school, she did rather poorly, which forced her to better herself and improve. She wants the best for herself and out of life, limitations be damned. While she’s not the most social of people, Phoebe’s certainly not the shy wallflower. She goes about and talks to people, attempting to make different connections. She’s typically friendly and cheerful to all, unless a person is absolutely horriddefinite opinions, and won’t sway from them a bit. Once she has made up her mind about a person, that opinion stays—and she’s never afraid to voice that opinion either. Everything that she says and does has a great sense of self-assuredness. She has absolutely no regrets about the things she gets herself involved with, or the people she may end up hurting.

Magically, her strength lies in work that doesn’t require wands or potions. She’s best at Arithmancy and Divination, while somewhat decent at Ancient Runes. Her other classes aren’t horrid, but she mostly doesn’t have the patience to practice or work at those classes. So, she focuses on reading and learning in that way as opposed to hands-on work.

Phoebe’s greatest weakness lies in the fact that she can be a bit blind and naïve to a person’s motives. Yes, she’s a bit of a cynic, but she usually lets her guard down (which is where her MAJOR Gryffindor tendencies kick in) and trust people. That is, of course, until they break that trust, which she never forgives. Ever. She also wears her emotions on her sleeve, which can fall under a weakness because it’s easy for people to prey on how she’s feeling. And, it’s not difficult for her to fall prey to her own housemates’ tricks and manipulations, as much as she hates to admit.

History

Phoebe born into a rather wealthy family, always knowing the best in life, the perfect little brat. The only daughter o her parents (she does, however, have an older brother), she was doted upon while growing up. She changed, as she went through school, but not much. She still tends to get a bit upset when things don’t go the way she wants them to, but usually, she doesn’t whine or throw fits over it.

Phoebe’s mother, Helena Applegate, was born to a Muggle and a Pureblood, while her father, Demeterius Hamilton, heils from a long line of purebloods. Both are well-known families. Helena works in a clothing shop in Diagon Alley, while Demeterius works for the Dept. of International Magical Cooperation. Her brother Oliver is someone who she’s extremely close to. She loves him to death and considers him to be one of her best friends. She had quite the happy and privileged childhood.

Her blood heritage, while not a complete disgrace to her (though, she’s certainly not proud of it), is not something she’d openly announce and speak of. In fact, she’ll keep her true heritage to herself and those closest to her, and keep up a ‘Pureblood’ standing to anyone else. She has a fierce sense of devotion to those few that she’s close to, and doesn’t bother much with those she doesn’t care for—unless they can somehow work to her advantage.

At Hogwarts, she is a dedicated student, and puts all of her effort into the assignments she cares about, and just barely finishes the ones she doesn’t. She’s not overly studious; she just gets done what she has to.

Astrology

LIBRA (September 23 - October 22) the Scales of Justice. Cardinal, air, yang - planetary ruler: Venus. Keywords: "I BALANCE"

Libra is the seventh sign of the zodiac and governs the kidneys, lower back, and buttocks. Positive traits include a rational, logical mind, a fine sense of aesthetics, diplomatic aplomb, good taste, charm, skill with words, intelligence, an innate sense of fairness and justice, and exceptional beauty. Negative characteristics include indecisiveness, excessive dependence on other people, conformist tendencies, manic depression, extravagance, and manipulation.

Slytherin

This combination of sun sign and House ought to be nicknamed "The Magical Corps of Diplomats." Slytherins born under this sign are poised, polished, suave, well read, well bred, and excruciatingly polite and correct in everything they do - the perfect gentry of the magical world. Never a bully or a bravo here! No, these Slytherins would say "I despise you and think your are worthless scum" and make it sound like "How do I love thee? Let me count the ways..." They are discreet, sympathetic, easy to talk to, and know how to put people at ease. This can, of course, be a wonderful asset in espionage (the flip side of diplomacy!) and these Slytherins are more than capable of hiding their true feelings in order to get information or befriend a rival. Because they need to act in partnership with others and hate to be alone, they are rarely decision makers, and must be careful who they seek to befriend, lest they be led astray into the wrong crowd. Slytherin Libras also ought to marry into money if they don't have much of their own, for their love of luxury and culture can make for extremely high maintenance expenses.
