Fiana Flynn

From Absit Omen Lexicon

Fiana wants to be a stage actress when she grows up, and this has made her very dramatic and theatrical. Always having been a creative child, she still lets her imagination run wild and enjoys playing make believe, and even has a few imaginary friends. She's a bit bossy at times, loves learning (especially about magic), and lives in her own little world.

Physical Description

Fiana is very petite, standing a good two inches below the average height for her age, and very slim. This, along with her youthful features, makes her appear closer to nine than eleven. She has very fair skin that burns easily, so she's taken to wearing a hat or carrying a parasol if she goes out in the sun (she also thinks that the parasol, at least, makes her look cool). Her hair is dark brown and long, falling just a few inches short of her waist. It is very curly and difficult to manage. She has very large dark blue eyes, a long nose that turns up slightly at the tip, and a wide mouth with an impish smile.

Personality Description

Fiana is very theatrical and dramatic. She takes the quote "life is a stage" seriously. She's always playing some make believe game, where she is the star of the story. She is very creative and imaginative, and for this reason doesn't require others to be around in order to be entertained. She can easily entertain herself by daydreaming or making up an imaginary friend to play with.

Fi is very intelligent. She's a quick learner, and very curious about the world in general. She wants to know everything there is to know about everything, magic in particular, and has bought several books on the subject. She's a voracious reader, of both fiction and non fiction, and can't wait to start her classes at Hogwarts.

Perhaps it comes from being the oldest at home, or perhaps she was just born that way. Whatever the reason, Fiona has turned out to be quite stubborn and a little bossy, at least when it comes to playing make believe with her friends. She knows how she wants things done, and likes to be the director of a situation.

Fiana lives in her own little world, and doesn't always pay attention to what is going on around her. She's also a bit absent-minded, and forgetful. This makes remembering things like names and important dates (birthdays, etc.) difficult for her. It also makes keeping secrets difficult. She tends to blab things out without realizing it.


History

Fiana is the first of three children born to Patrick and Caitlin Flynn, having a younger brother Toby (who is at this time nine years old), and a younger sister Aislin (who is six). Her parents are artists, and have a very laid back lifestyle. From the beginning, Fiana and her siblings had almost no rules, and were encouraged to express themselves in whatever creative manner they chose. Fiana thought it was cool that she was allowed to draw on the walls in her bedroom, as this was something her friends were not allowed to do, but she wished her parents were a little more reliable at providing meals and things like that.

Prior to her acceptance to Hogwarts, Fiana attended the very small local primary school. Although she had a small circle of friends, she was considered a little weird by most of her fellow students. This was okay with Fiana. She liked being different. It made her unique. When she was eight, her parents took her to a production of Romeo and Juliet. Fiana immediately fell in love with the theater, and decided she wanted to act when she grew up. She began making up plays that she, her friends, and her siblings would perform for her parents. She, of course, was always the star.

Shortly after her eleventh birthday, her Hogwarts letter arrived, delivered by a Ministry official who explained things to her parents. Fiana was ecstatic. She'd always known magic existed, no matter what her teachers and other grown ups said. Now she's purchased her wand and a black cat (what other kind of pet would a proper witch have, after all?), and is eagerly waiting for the term to start.

How Do You Fit Into Your House?

Although you might not think it from your first impression of her, Fiana is quite smart. She doesn't sit down to study a lot, but she loves to learn new things so she ends up reading quite a bit, with a fair balance between fiction and non-fiction. She's very observant and naturally adept at school work.
