■ SOCIABLE Liddie is, to put it bluntly, a social creature. She enjoys the spotlight and social events, and loves making and keeping friends. Liddie just wants everyone around her to be happy and have fun. Is that so difficult? She's not interested in long winded philosophical conversations, or talking about the future or the past. Liddie lives firmly in the here and now, and thrives on the practical and the mundane. ■ MORAL An altruist at heart, she believes in helping others and doing the right thing, and her moral compass is based on what she's been taught to be true. She is much more comfortable upholding pre-established traditions and rules than questioning or flouting them, and it's hard for her to understand that not everyone has been raised the way she has. ■ DEVOTED She has a strong sense of duty and what is expected of her, and would hate to disappoint anyone. Liddie was raised to believe that her first duty was to God, and her second duty to her family. She needed to please both of them if she wanted to be a good person. Because of this, she is quick to cling to people, not wanting to be seen as uncaring or aloof. ■ HARD-WORKING Liddie is loyal and works hard, so long as she knows she is being appreciated; she thrives on praise and is very used to receiving it. She doesn't believe in sitting around doing nothing, and is very mature in the sense that she rarely ever complains, no matter how mundane or tedious the task in front of her is. ■ SENSITIVE Not at ease with stepping out of her own comfort zone, Liddie can be overly critical of others in an attempt to feel better about herself, and her feelings are easily hurt when others poke at her own values and beliefs. Mostly she just wants to be noticed and told that she is worth something, which influences her actions quite a bit. ■ COMPLIANT Liddie is also a bit preoccupied with social status and what others think of her, and is extremely cautious of going against the grain or being viewed as anything other than normal. She's eager to please those around her, and can be quite gullible, even when she ought to know better, due to her fear of upsetting people or being seen as 'difficult'.

CHILDHOOD Liddie was born the second daughter and youngest child of a pastor and his wife, raised in the Suffolk village of Haverhill for the majority of her childhood. The Spencer household was not just religious, but devoutly religious, where prayer and regular study of the Bible in its entirety was not only encouraged but required. Liddie attended a religious primary school, and it had always seemed to her that her family spends more time in church than out of it, beyond just the usual Sunday morning service. However, this had always been normal for their family, just like choir practice and attendance of every church event. When Liddie was five her family traveled to South Africa as missionaries, which she viewed as an exciting adventure at the time, but after their return to the UK a series of strange incidents began to develop, leaving her shaken.
While she had always believed in miracles, the instances didn't always seem like acts of God. A girl in the washroom at school called her a name, and the water the girl was washing her hands in turned steaming hot in an instant. She woke up from a nightmare to find the lights in her room flickering on and off sporadically. When the choir instructor scolded her in front of all her friends and classmates, suddenly every note the woman was playing on the piano every immediately sounded flat. Not everything that happened around Liddie over the next several years was upsetting or unnerving, but as someone brought up to view good and evil as literal forces warring for control over her soul, it left more than a little bit rattled, and determined to make whatever was going on stop, primarily by ignoring and denying all of it.
But this grew more difficult when she realized similar things were happening around her sister and closest confidante, Esther, and while she might have been tempted to blame it all on the older girl, this really wasn't an option when it was revealed to the muggle family that Essie and Liddie were witches. Liddie refused to accept this as the truth; she was the daughter of a pastor, and she had certainly never behaved like any witch or magic-practitioner in the Bible ever had. It was very obvious that her parents no longer looked at her and Essie the same way, especially after Essie returned home from her first year at Hogwarts, the school Liddie was informed she would have to attend as well. She spent the next two years dreading her entrance into the school, which she was sure would only distance herself further from her father and mother, who had previously seemed so proud of her, and from her faith. How was she supposed to be a good follower of the Lord when she was surrounded by flagrant sinners?
SCHOOL YEARS
FIRST YEAR Lydia's first year was horrible. She was sorted into Hufflepuff, which she supposed was better than the snake house, but it meant she was separated from Esther and all alone. She found making friends difficult, as she didn't trust anyone, and the castle was massive and intimidating. The actual schoolwork wasn't too exhausting, but finding her way to all her classes was bad enough.

■ BOLD Esther has always enjoyed taking the road less traveled; something that especially stands out in contrast with her conservative upbringing. While never intentionally rebellious or reckless, Essie has no issues taking a leap due to her innate trust that everything will work out in the end. She has no qualms about speaking her mind, even if others try to discourage her. ■ CREATIVE Esther has always enjoyed expressing herself; she loves to paint, and can often be found doodling in the margins of her notes and even her Bible- she doubts God would have any serious issues with a few flowers at the edge of the scriptures. She tends to think outside of the box, and is more open-minded than would be expected, given her upbringing. ■ RELAXED Esther is not quick to anger or irritation; not much ruffles her feathers, even if she can get a bit indignant on occasion when she considers something truly wrong. She is very earnest, but she's also very calm, and it takes a lot of build up to actually set her off on a tirade. In general, she would much rather just take things slowly, as she finds that is the best way to get things done. ■ CONFIDENT Esther believes the best of everyone, but above all, she believes the best of herself. If she sets her mind to something, she truly believes she can accomplish anything she wants to. By nature she is a dreamer, and by nature Essie is inclined to dream big. Why not? After all, all things are possible through the Lord. ■ FRIENDLY While not as talkative as her younger sister, Esther still enjoys making and keep friends, and does her best to be kind and understanding towards everyone she meets, even if they are.... less than receptive. Essie isn't someone who needs a lot of friends to be happy, but does enjoy knowing she can trust the people around her and that they feel likewise. ■ OBSTINATE Despite her easygoing nature, Esther still does have a stubborn streak, and can be very insistent about getting her way. She doesn't give up easily, which tends to be exasperating, and tends to be of the mindset that if she wants something to happen, she can make it happen with just enough force of will.

CHILDHOOD Esther was born the third child and eldest daughter in a devoutly Christian family, composed of her father, Daniel, a reverend, her mother, Elizabeth, a homemaker, and her two older brothers, Jonas and Gabriel, as well as her younger sister, Lydia. She was raised in the Suffolk village of Haverhill, and spent most of her childhood outside, running around and exploring, despite her mother's fretting that she would injure herself and that it wasn't very ladylike. God was the focus of everything in her household; she attended a religious primary school and they were in church far more often than the standard once a week. Her family even took a mission trip to South Africa, which was when things seemed to change.
Esther had always been a very lucky child; for all her falls she'd never so much as scraped a knee. She was bit by a snake in South Africa, but the wound healed over almost immediately, and although she should have fell ill, she felt fine. However, shortly after her eleventh birthday a man came to the house claiming she was a witch, and would need to attend a school called Hogwarts to learn to control her powers. Her younger sister, Lydia, was one as well- both girls had been plagued by unusual incidents since what seemed like birth.
Esther's parents were first in shock, then outrage. No daughter of theirs would attend some heathen school, learning how to practice witchcraft. It took nearly a month of debate before Esther was able to convince her father. She'd prayed on it intensively, and claimed to feel a call to the school- surely she could set a good example and spread the good word? It would be like a mission trip to a foreign land. Her intentions were mostly pure, but secretly the idea of being a witch, of having powers beyond her wildest dreams, thrilled her to her core. She'd always known she was different.
SCHOOL YEARS
FIRST YEAR Esther's first year went better than expected. She was sorted into Gryffindor, the house of the brave and chivalrous, and befriended a housemate, Richard, even if she got into a few minor squabbles with some less than faithful classmates. SECOND YEAR Esther began to play Quidditch her second year, trying out as a chaser, and found herself straying slightly from some of her family's core tenants; she saved up money and bought a pair or two of trousers and proper sneakers, and even asked some older students for help with her hair. How bad could it be to want to look her best and to be well-prepared for her sport? THIRD YEAR The summer before Esther's third year her father found out about her Quidditch playing, and despite having no idea what the sport was, expressly forbid it. She reluctantly acquiesced, and had a quiet year, wondering why boys were suddenly so cute and why in the world she was now bleeding once a month.
