Tiger Lily Candell

Name: Tiger Lily Candell (Tiger)
Gender: Female
Age: Sixth year
House: Ravenclaw
Blood Status: Both parents Muggle-born

Appearance: Tiger has straight, shoulder-length dark brown hair. She's about 5'5", and surprisingly average-looking except for her bright amber eyes. When she's not wearing her school robes, which she decorates with embroidered blue stars, she wears blue jeans--you'll NEVER catch her in a skirt--and some random T-shirt. She doesn't pay too much attention to her clothes, but she always wears a shiny golden star pendant on a chain around her neck.

Personality: She acts very carefree, and is likely to walk up to you and randomly start talking. Nothing seems to bother her much, and even if she's arguing with you there'll be a hint of a smile in her eyes. If you insult her, she's likely to just brush it off and keep talking. She's a Ravenclaw, but she's definitely not the best in her class--especially not Potions, which she epically fails at. She does care a lot about learning, though, and always does the best she can, never letting failure get her down for long. Sometimes her carefree demeanor slips, though, and you can see a faraway sadness in her eyes. If you look over at her in the Great Hall after a long day, you might catch her staring at her plate and not eating while everyone talks around her. She also thinks about philosophy a surprising amount, for someone who acts so light all the time. Tiger fools around a lot, but if she realizes you're upset she'll instantly drop everything to try and cheer you up.

Backstory: Both of her parents are Muggle-born, and raised her in a very Muggle-like fashion, sending her to Muggle elementary school and such. In her childhood she lived between the Muggle and Wizarding world, as her parents often had their Wizarding friends over to visit. Because of this she also knew a lot about Hogwarts and magic. Now she's drifted a little more into the magic world, but she still enjoys reading Muggle fantasy books, which have always been a favorite of hers.
