    Peony Deryn Flickwick
    Gryffindor 6th Year
    Liquid, melancholy dreams. Tell me what it means, cause you drive me crazy. Driftwood, won't you float me down your stream. Tell me what it means, cause you drive me crazy. Cause you're crazy beautiful.

    City & Country of Birth: London, England
    Pureblood, Halfblood or Muggleborn: Halfblood
    House & Year: Gryffindor 6th Year

    Wand: Peony's wand is exactly 12 inches long and made of zebrawood with a Unicorn Tail hair core. It is springy with a decorated shaft.

    Physical Description: Peony is tall for a girl of her age, standing at 5'8" already, and probably has room to grow on or two more inches. She's a healthy weight for her height, and doesn't fret much about her size. She has light brown skin and dark black curly hair that she takes very good care of to keep it pretty and manageable. Her smile is bright, cheerful, and she's almost always wearing it. Peony usually dresses in more feminine styles, but is equally at home on "frumpy" days in jeans and a loose fitting shirt or in sweats. Peony loves accessories- necklaces, bracelets, earrings, glasses, and hair accessories- she thinks they're lots of fun and wears them quite often, even with her uniform (even if they don't always match dress code).

    Personality Description: Peony is a very opinionated young girl. She stands up for what she believes in, even to the point of being blindly passionate. If she believes that she is right, it's almost impossible to sway her thinking in the opposite direction. Peony has a hard time looking at situations from a perspective other than her own (after her own perspective has been defined). She's stubborn, unyielding, and really hates to admit that she is wrong. This leads to a lot of long lasting and often pointless arguments with her. Many people have said arguing with Peony is like arguing with a brick wall.

    Musically inclined, Noni plays the cello and violin. Though she doesn't sing well, she understand meter and pitch can learn new pieces quickly, often committing her favorites to memory. Peony has a special love for classical music, but also enjoys putting a modern twist on her cello and violin skills- she especially loves the way that the instruments sound when mixed into wrock music.

    Other than music, Peony loves celebrity gossip, wizarding pop culture, and subscribes to witch weekly. She loves keeping up with the current events of wizarding culture, but definitely prefers the lighter side of the news. Noni is also a huge quidditch fan. Her favorite team is the Holyhead Harpies because they're all women. She loves listening to matches on the wireless and goes to them with her family any time she has the chance to.

    Family has always been very important to Peony. She's very close to her siblings, parents, and equally close to her extended family- aunts, uncles, and cousins. Peony considers her close friends to be just like family, and will defend them tooth and nail. She doesn't shy away from any kind of confrontation when it comes to defending those she cares about. Though Peony might not be so great with hexes/curses, she's loud and has no qualms about using her words against someone she thinks might be attacking or hurting those she cares about.


    History:
    The Parents: Amy Jones is from a poor wizarding family in Dorset, England. She moved to London after graduating Hogwarts to work for St. Mungo's as a healer. While working at the hospital she had an affair with one of her colleagues (Albert Cowles), which led to her becoming pregnant with Peony. When Amy was just three months pregnant she met Finnegan Flickwick- the second youngest of six children and an employee for the Magical Games and Sports department of the ministry. The two had a whirlwind romance and were married after only dating for two months. Their marriage is still going strong almost seventeen years later.

    Childhood: When Peony was born, she was given the last name Flickwick. Though she wasn't her father's biological child, he loved her like she was one of his own. Peony never got to know her biological father, and has never even considered the possibility of getting to know him. Finnegan is the only dad she has ever known, and the only one she could ever want.

    Growing up, Peony had lots of relatives to play with. The Flickwicks were always a very close family, and she grew up with lots of other cousins- both her age, younger, and older. Her mom and dad both taught her the importance of family, and Peony learned that lesson with ease- quickly considering her cousins her best friends in the whole wide world. 

    When Peony was two, her little brother was born (now a fourth year at Hogwarts), and when she was five her little sister was born (just started her first year at Hogwarts). Her mother and father were both very diligent and doting parents. They took good care of their children, made sure that they had everything they needed, and worked hard to teach them good morals so that they would grow up to be responsible and kind adults.

    Peony spent her days as a child with her Nan or her Uncle Duncan while her parents were at work- and during these days she became closest with her cousin Sophie, who is only one month older than she is. It is also how she got her nicknam Noni- little Soph couldn't say "Peony", and thus her nickname was born.

    Hogwarts: Starting Hogwarts was a real exciting time in the life of Peony Deryn Flickwick. She wasn't sure what house she wanted to be in, but couldn't have been happier to be sorted into Gryffindor with her favorite cousin and best friend. She fit in rather well with the house, and enjoyed starting classes. Peony also joined the Orchestra and the Hogwarts Players in her first year.

    Second, third, and fourth years were relatively uneventful for Noni. She picked up Arithmancy and Muggle studies as her electives. After starting Arithmancy she found she had a natural talent with math. She gained a real interest in house quidditch over these years- especially with her father teaching her the ins and outs of the game. Peony never really was interested in actually playing quidditch, but was an avid fan at school and of the professional circuit. (She's a huge fan of the Holyhead Harpies- the all female quidditch team.)

    Fifth year in general was really tough. She had her OWLs to study for, and in March of that school year her Aunt Ramona died. The death of her aunt was hard, she'd always been close with her Aunt Ramona and Uncle Duncan. Noni did her best to comfort Sophie, but it wasn't easy. She was surprised that she was at all able to focus well enough to get good grades on on her OWLs.

    With sixth year starting, Peony is hoping to have a less stressful year. She is taking six classes- but isn't really sure what she wants to do once she graduates. Peony intends to keep being an active part in the Orchestra/Choir, Hogwarts Players, and to attend SAWS meetings. Peony is also beginning to do some career research, hoping to find a job that will match her her interests and her NEWT classes. She has little interest in competing in the tournament, but hopes to cheer on the Hogwarts champions to victory.

    How Do You Fit Into Your House?:  Peony stands up for what she believes in, no matter what. She has morals and convictions and tries to do what is right- even in the face of adversity. This embodies bravery and chivalry, the two defining traits of Gryffindor house.

    Sum up your character in one paragraph: Peony is your typical sixteen year old girl. She enjoys glitz, glamour, and fashion. She's opinionated, strong willed, and very secure in who she is. Noni loves music and theater. She's good at math- even though she often tries to pretend otherwise. Family and friends are everything to her. Peony is trying to figure out what she wants to do with the rest of her life after Hogwarts- but hasn't quite made up her mind yet.
