■ BENEVOLENTDonella always starts off with the best of intentions. Unfortunately, for all her desire to do good at heart, she can be quite the zealot, and often gets ahead of herself, overwhelming others with her cheerfully ruthless 'can do, will do, no matter what' attitude. Donella is kind and and compassionate as the day is long, without an ulterior motive to speak of, but don't get in her way. ...It won't end well for anyone. ■ TRADITIONALDespite her mother very much being the matriarch of her immediate family, Donella was raised in and clings to a more traditional fashion. Women lead through words and example, men through action and strength. Elders should be respected. Manners are not a suggestion but an obligation, and a little humility and respect goes a long way. While Donella is very much her own person and far more a leader than a follower, she does put a great deal of stock in more time-honored ideals, and looks poorly upon those who flout them. ■ FASTIDIOUSDonella is a firm believer in 'if you are going to do something, do it right'. She believes in taking her time, and that slow and steady will always wins the race. Reckless, impulsive behavior that doesn't take others into consideration annoys her to no end, as does sloppy work or unnecessary mess and disorder. Not to say that Donella is a clean freak, but she tends to accomplish tasks more slowly than most, not because she's dull-witted, but because she cares a bit too much. ■ STEADFASTDonella is extremely firm and loyal in attitude. She rarely changes her mind or wavers in her decision making, although she will take her time, and refuses to be coerced or pressured by those around her. Donella will never abandon a friend or forsake a belief, and her promises might as well be made of iron. She never says anything she doesn't mean, and very rarely tells even a white lie. ■ MODESTDonella is not one to put herself down or disparage her own abilities in an effort to get compliments from her peers, but she is very humble, and doesn't see herself as particularly talented in anything other than hard work and dedication. She's not often pretentious or trying to come off as smarter or holier than tho, and doesn't like showy or flashy things. Donella would much rather just be herself. ■ FORBEARINGDonella is by nature a very patient, reserved sort of person. While she doesn't usually have very much difficulty getting along with others or making friends, she does have an easygoing sort of outlook when it comes to those she considers friends, and is willing to tolerate a lot in a relationship before she even gets annoyed. This indulgent attitude can sometimes blind her to the reality of situations and the people around her.

CHILDHOODDonella was born the first child of two Hogwarts sweethearts, Glenys and Cameron. Glenys, a slightly embittered middle child from a large, old moneyed but severely lacking in actual funds, Welsh pureblood family, was expected to go through with an arranged marriage, like her older sister and brother before her. She had no real qualms about this until she realized in her sixth year that she'd fallen in love with her best friend, Cameron, who was from an upper middle class but muggle Scottish family. The two had met there very first night at Hogwarts, both being Hufflepuffs, and wary of outright defying Glenys' family, instead came up with an admittedly somewhat childishly planned plot to elope as soon as they both turned seventeen.
The plan fell rather short, when, right before the end of their sixth year, Glenys realized she was pregnant. Frightened, she tearfully confessed everything to her mother when she arrived home for the summer, while her father worked himself up into a fury. Cameron, determined not to abandon her, confronted the man, and as family legends are wont to go, supposedly it came very close to a duel. A week later Glenys lost the baby, and rightfully or not blamed her parents for the stress she reckoned had caused the miscarriage. She moved in with Cameron's family, the two graduated the following spring, married, and did not even begin to consider children again until some years later. Donella and her younger brother, William, eventually came into existence.
Donella grew up sheltered- coddled, her grandfather tended to remark, then hold his tongue at the cold look his daughter gave him- and in a somewhat isolated fashion, as her father's parents passed away when she was a toddler, and the family resided in Scotland, not in Wales like much of her mother's family. She vastly preferred the company of her brother to her cousins, and in particular grew to despise Treva and Madoc, who seemed to pick on William whenever they got the chance. With a herbologist mother and a landscaper father, Donella spent plenty of time outside, usually dirty, and while excited to attend Hogwarts at the age of eleven, was reluctant to leave her family behind.
SCHOOL YEARS
FIRST YEARAlthough a bit homesick at the beginning, Donella very much enjoyed her first year. She was sorted into Hufflepuff like her parents, much to everyone's delight, and found friendship with her new housemates. She loved Hogwarts as a whole, particularly Herbology, the immense grounds, and the cozy Common Room, and made plans to try out for Quidditch the next year. SECOND YEARDonella had a quiet second year, mostly devoted to keeping her grades up and wandering around in the gardens, taking notes on all the different plants for her mother and father, although she had befriended a troubled girl named Rayne and several of her housemates, like Gertie. THIRD YEARDonella spent the majority of her third year in denial of the fact that she had developed a crush on a classmate named Anandi, who happened to be female. She also caught her friend Rayne attempting to shoplift, and the other girl confessed some things about her childhood to Donella, which helped the two come to better terms with one another. FOURTH YEARDonella finally came out to herself over the course of her fourth year, although she didn't tell anyone about it. Instead she focused on quidditch and schoolwork, unwilling to consider the ramifications of not being anywhere close to as straight as she'd thought.

THOUGHTFUL xxx»» Bill is the type who will hold doors open for people, help someone pick up their books or papers, offer to help clear the table, and so on. He was raised to be very polite and considerate of others, given his Hufflepuff parents, but he's just also naturally a very caring person, who tries his best to put other people first, even if they don't necessarily deserve it. He always remembers to thank other people if they do something kind for him and he abides by the Golden Rule.
RELAXED xxx»» Bill is a very laid-back person. He prefers more solitary, relaxed activities and isn't one one for getting too worked up over things. He's very slow to irritation or anger and usually takes everything in stride, preferring not to argue about things, especially with his friends. However, this also means he's not one to raise much of a fuss on his behalf or others, and would rather work things out one-on-one than get heated in public.
OBJECTIVE xxx»» Bill is a pretty neutral person who likes to consider all the facts before coming to a conclusion about something. He doesn't like to assume things about others and prefers to wait things out and see rather than instantly take up one fight or another. Overall, he tries to be fair and reasonable in all his doings, and to give people the benefit of the doubt, while also not excuse their poor behavior.
TRUSTWORTHY xxx»» Bill is a very trustworthy person. He's not someone inclined to lie, cheat, or deceive others, and is generally very honest, even if he tells the occasional white lie to spare someone's feelings. He's certainly someone who others can rely on to be a good friend and confidant, and he doesn't like to gossip or speculate about other's peoples' personal lives (maybe because he just doesn't care that much).
DEPENDENT xxx»» Bill can be very dependent. He tends to lean on the people around him for support, and, maybe due to growing up with both a controlling mother and a controlling sister, isn't used to being the one in charge or deciding what to do. It's much easier for him to let other people take over, although sometimes he resents that he isn't more assertive or independent. Still, being a bit needy has its good points: he can always count on someone else.
ADVENTUROUS xxx»» Bill is always willing to try new things and meet new people, and dislikes doing the same exact thing day after day. He may dislike sports, but he enjoys being active, or just doing things to pass the time like baking or reading. While he isn't always very talkative, he's usually very open and doesn't really care what other people think about him. He's willing to take risks and doesn't always think before he leaps.
STRENGTHS xxx»» Bill is a very kind, considerate person. xxx»» Bill is very objective and doesn't jump to conclusions. WEAKNESSES xxx»» Bill doesn't like to pick fights or make a fuss. xxx»» Bill can be very dependent and clingy. FEARS xxx»» Bee stings xxx»» Blood

CHILDHOOD xxx»» William Brown is the second child of Glenys Brown nee Warlow, a Welsh herbologist, and Cameron Brown, a Scottish landscaper. His parents were Hogwarts sweethearts who defied Glenys' pureblood parents to elope, as Cameron was a muggleborn and Glenys was supposed to marry a fellow pureblood. Some years later William's sister Donella was born, and three years after her he followed. As the younger child William was more spoiled and coddled than his sister, and since he was born early and often sickly as a little boy, often prevented from doing the same things as his sister or from being out of his mother's sight for very long. Donella was also a very domineering older sibling, and William was used to always doing what his sister wanted to do. He spent most of his childhood in Scotland, with occasional visits to see his mother's family in Wales, none of whom he particularly liked, as his older cousins tended to bully and mock him. He couldn't wait to attend Hogwarts, mostly so his every move wouldn't be monitored or scolded.
