Physical Description: Lily looks much nicer than most elves. She is usually clean, unless she has recently been gardening or cleaning. She has large ears that curve slightly upwards and a pointy nose. Lily's eyes are forest green.
 
Lily is always wearing a pink frilly dress and pink flat shoes. She also has different aprons to wear when gardening, cooking, and cleaning. All her clothes are fitted to her size.
 
Personality Description: Lily is extremely shy around everyone but the Torret family. She'll usually stay quiet, only talking when spoken to. If any attention is put onto her she'll do her best to divert it. This is because of her fear she won't be excepted by someone or something because she is free and well treated.
 
Inside the Torret family is a quite different story. Lily is kind, caring, and very responcible. Though she is free she serves the Torrets loyaly and excepts most every command. She holds very little temper and if she is ever angry she holds in her anger. She doesn't use magic often unless it is needed.
 
History: Lily's past before the Torrets bought her is unknown and quite unclear. It is estimated that she was around 4-6 when they did.
 
She was hired to take care of Zoe, who was a baby back then, as well as take care of the house and the garden since Joy and Edward both worked a lot. Lily was a house elf back then. Edward, however, didn't want an enslaved house elf working for him, considering it cruel. He tried to convince Lily to become free, though she turned it down immediatly, thinking it an insult. He continued to try and Lily figured he didn't want her as a house elf anymore. She became upset and tried to find loopholes in orders. It was after a very serious talk with Edward that her mind was changed. She was freed but still worked for the Torrets.
 
As a free elf the Torrets treated Lily as an equal. Little by little they convinced her to except more things. First clothes fit for her, then a few little things of her own, then her own room in the house (though she insisted on the smallest bedroom) and finally allowing people to do things for her. She greatly warmed to the Torret family and the kindness they offered.
 
The years of Voldemort's rein was the hardest for Lily. One of her masters fled to avoid being sent to prison. Lily missed Edward greatly and feared for him as well. The darkest night for her was The Battle of Hogwarts, when her other master left to fight and Lily was left alone with a toddler Zoe. Joy returned alive and Edward returned once the Muggleborns were allowed to have wands again.
 
When Zoe first left for Hogwarts Lily missed her greatly, as she had known her since she was a baby. She visited Hogwarts often, sometimes cleaning Zoe's dorm for her as a surprise. She still will sometimes come to Hogwarts to see Zoe.
 
Writing Sample:

Sum up your character in one paragraph: Lily is a free elf who still happily serves the family she was freed by. She still is loyal as the next elf but treated a lot better. Though she has a shy exterior Lily is actually very nice, though she only shows her true self to those who are kind to her.
