Basics
Character Name: Cassandra Naomi Corning
Age: 11
Year: 1st
House: Gryffindor
Date of Birth: January 21st, 2004
Blood Status: Half-blood
Wand: 11", Maple, Phoenix Core
Personality
Likes: Quidditch, exploring, new places, staying active, moving quickly, animals and magical creatures of all kinds, sweets especially chocolate frogs, making friends and meeting new people
Dislikes: having to sit still for too long, being reminded of something she already knows, getting in trouble... just for having fun, and when grown-ups won't explain why the rules exist
Personality: Cassie has a passion and zest for life that is hard to match. She likes meeting new people and introduces herself freely, especially if they're her age. She hates it so much when people are rude when she does that. Well, if they don't want to make new friends, she obviously doesn't want to be friends with them. Currently, she's seeking an exploring partner who's willing to... bend the rules. Cassie is also quite brave (sometimes to the point of putting herself in danger), open and honest to the point of vulnerability, and the type of friend to split her last chocolate frog with you, but not ever forgive a breach of trust.
She likes to learn and once she knows about a topic, she can usually find some way of getting excited about it, but she's definitely no Ravenclaw. Although she tries hard in all her classes, she can get easily bored if classes are mostly theory rather than letting her try stuff out. Her eldest brother says that he'll help her find other ways of studying, and then she can do it groups. Cassie does really want to do well.
History
Parents: Radolphus Corning and Arielle Holmes
Siblings: Dylan Holmes (fifth year student), Wilfred Corning (2nd year student), and Erin Corning (not yet starting at Hogwarts)
Character History: Her eldest brother, Dylan, has another dad. He was a Muggle who their mom grew up with (she was Muggle-born), but 'couldn't handle' the truth about the wizarding world, whatever that means. She really looks up to Dylan and thinks he's the smartest wizard ever. Everyone knows he's going to be a curse breaker or work for the Department of Magical Accidents and Catastrophes when he graduates from Hogwarts.
Growing up, she spent most of her time at her parent's potions shop. They started it together before they even started dating. Cassie knows they really hope one of their children will take it over after them, but it's going to have to be between Wilfred and Erin. Cassie is either going to be an Auror or care for magical creatures- maybe be a dragon keeper!- or possibly become a famous Quidditch player. Or just explore the world! But she isn't going to work in the potions shop.
Cassie was two when Erin was born, but she doesn't really remember it. What she does remember is how she and Wilfred would fight and Dylan would always find something better for them to do instead. At least until he starting going to Hogwarts and they barely saw him anymore. At first, both she and Wilfred picked on Erin, but after Dylan went off to Hogwarts, they stuck together more because they had to find something fun to do now that Dylan wasn't doing that for them. In the summers, sometimes they went to their Muggle grandparent's house. Dylan always complained that there wasn't any magic allowed there, but their mom always had the same response: he wasn't allowed to do magic outside of the school year anyways.
Last year, when Wilfred got to go to Hogwarts, she had been so jealous, but it's finally her turn, and she was really excited about it. She couldn't wait to start getting to know everybody and exploring and especially practicing magic.
