xxxPERSONALITYxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx
ANXIOUS Due to her mother’s not-so-helpful actions, Anaís lives in a constant flux that something has happened or will happen and that she’s powerless to stop either. Her perceived lack of control also stops her from telling others of her fears most of the time and only doing so once her feelings are so out of control she’s nearly in the throes of an attack.
PERCEPTIVE Anaís has a heightened awareness of her surroundings and can usually take notice of small patterns or even emotional changes around her. This way she can know who to avoid at certain times and who perhaps just needs a cookie or a hug.
RESOURCEFUL Anaís knows how to make use of anything within reach to solve her problems, big or small. This also allows her a level of adaptability to her situations so rarely leaves something unfinished for long.
NAIVE Never speaking to anyone outside her family for the first seven years of her life really made a mark on her levels of believability. Her brother made sure not to abuse it too often but she’s found everyone else doesn’t share those thoughts. Coupled with her anxious nature, she totters between believing and disbelieving what people tell her but usually ends up following along, sometimes to her detriment.
IMAGINATIVE Having never gone to public school or even played with other children besides her brother allowed Anaís to have a very vivid imagination in order to keep from dying of boredom at times. Together with the random visions that sometimes appear to her, she likes to create elaborate stories or game plots to write or play out with toys or now the other children at Wool’s. These stories also can function as a way she can talk about what she’s feeling at a time so Anaís has taken to keeping notebooks with her at all times.
CURIOUS Anaís loves learning about..everything. Before Wool’s, she read every child appropriate book at her house and had begun skimming Javier’s school books just to keep busy. Now, she’s constantly asking questions and checking out books in and out of school and usually has to be reminded to finish her homework or essay because she can easily be waylaid by other questions she’s come up with.

xxxBACKSTORYxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx
EARLY CHILDHOOD Anaís was born in the union of a dwindling famous Portuguese magical line and a moderate Spanish one. Her family on her mother’s side had been plagued with low birth rates since her grandparents' time and by the time of her birth, there were only five people left to continue the Teixeira line. Desperate, her mother, Isabela, found and married a middle aged widower, Alejandro, who already had a young son named Javier. Truly they were a marriage of convenience as her father wanted a housewife to care for the home and children and her mother needed stability and, simply put, a sperm donor. Anaís came within their second year of marriage and her mother was thrilled. Isabela doted on her young daughter, never letting the babe leave her side or out of her sight. When she reached infancy, her mother began trying to initiate Anaís’ accidental magic much to her husband’s worry. She would leave the baby crying and hungry to see if she would summon food, lock her in rooms to see if she would unlock or apparate, even dropping her from a tree which gratefully her brother managed to catch her before she landed. Javier was furious with his stepmother and how she was treating his literal baby sister and more than tried bringing it up to his father. To his credit, Alejandro did attempt to talk to his wife about how dangerous the stunts she was pulling were and warned that if anything it might be actually hindering their daughter’s magic. That managed to get through and Isabela fortunately stopped actively placing their infant in danger. Over the next few years, Anaís was sheltered in their family home with only her mother and brother to keep company, not even allowed to play with any children she came across outside. While her mother had promised to no longer place her in active danger, she still employed dubious tasks to attempt to force the magic out of her. Luckily, she had Javier who when not out the house would spend time with her and play bodyguard to whatever scheme their mother might have. It was because of this that he was the only person Anaís felt comfortable telling about the things she sometimes saw-people’s faces in puddles of water she’d never met, flashes of places in between slow blinks, and other things of the sort. Her brother entertained all her stories not thinking much of them and definitely not telling either of their parents; their father due to uninterest and their mother for obvious reasons. Anaís home life however took a dramatic turn for the worse after her seventh birthday. Isabela, incapable of believing her daughter to be anything but magical and enraged over not yet seeing anything substantial, decided to once again attempt to scare the magic out her daughter. She did so by taking a large knife and brandishing it at the young girl, swiping and stabbing the air erratically and actually injuring the child a few times. Javier, upon returning home, sees this and in a rage charges their mother and begins grabbing for the knife. Still enraged, more so since in her mind the son was partially to blame for the failure, Isabela manages to get the upper hand and stabs Javier in the chest. Anaís runs outside to the neighbors to find help but unfortunately once they arrive it was too late and her brother died. Her mother was arrested and Alejandro, who was full of grief, guilt, and anger, decided to surrender his daughter to social services not wanting any reminder of the woman who stole what remained of his life. Anaís was originally going to be placed in a foster home but upon seeing the matron had a severe panic attack and could never be in the same room as them. When she was placed at Wool’s, she hid from nearly every adult woman who came into the home, still afraid and grieving the loss of her only protector. Over the years though, Anaís has slowly begun to emerge from her shell and actively engage with other children for the first time ever yet still fears that if she were to get too close someone else she cared for would be taken away.
SCHOOL YEARS
■ FIRST YEAR Anaís had been filled with bittersweet emotion from the moment she arrived at the castle remembering how excited Javier had been to start school. She'd had many sleepless nights where she would sit out on the astronomy tower pretending to join the Astronomy club so no one would look deeper and wonder if she even deserved to be at the school. However this was soon found out by her head of house who began "asking" her to join the peer counseling club which she did with hesitation. To date, Anaís hasn't really spoken up in the club, but she attends so it's something.
