Queen Victoria was known for putting jackets and dresses on her pups, causing clothing for dogs to become so popular that fashion houses for just dog clothes started popping up all over Paris. — Fox
It would be easy to assume that Evangeline came to the Lady Morgana only to pick fights. That wasn't true at all. They also had very good biscuits.

Appearance
Helga has always considered herself pretty. A late bloomer, she's always strove to look more mature than she is while also maintaining a youthful trendiness in the way she dresses and styles her hair. She is fond of gloves and decorative hats—the more patterned, the better.

She stands at a petite five feet and is moderately curvy. She prefers to describe her hair as a romantic auburn, but to call it a warm brown would be more accurate. Her eyes are a nut brown, and her eyebrows are always well-groomed.
History
1869 | Helga is born the fifth and final child of the Scamander family. As the youngest child she is spoiled and doted on by her parents and nanny.

1870 | Veronica goes off to Hogwarts and is sorted into Hufflepuff.

1872 | Louisa goes off to Hogwarts and is sorted into _____. Helga misses her, but is quick to adjust once the initial confusion of her sister's absence passes.

1873 | No one witnesses her first sign of magic. After one of her favorite dolls loses its arm and no one is around to fix it for her, it seemingly repairs itself before her eyes.

1874 | Eugene goes off to Hogwarts and is sorted into Hufflepuff. She spends the first two weeks of September sulking about and bickering with Marlena (who never seems to want to play princess and the prince, even when Helga promises that she can be the princess next time).

1877 | Veronica debuts, and is finally home full-time. Eight-year-old Helga takes an interest in the daily routine of a debutante, and swears that she will one day marry the most eligible bachelor in the world. That summer, the Scamanders relocate to Hogsmeade, leaving a very concerned Helga worried about who will take over her room in her absence.

1878 | Marlena goes off to Hogwarts and is sorted into Gryffindor. She will not admit it at the time, but Helga misses her sister. Slightly.

1879 | Louisa graduates from Hogwarts and debuts into society.

1880 | Eugene graduates in the spring, and Helga is off to school the following September. She and Marlena board the train to Hogwarts, where she is sorted into Hufflepuff. The initial charm of her classes dies off when she sees the pile of homework she has to complete; fortunately, her new friendships with Miss Nora Abercombie and Miss Lucille Flint provide suitable distraction.

1882 | Helga adds Muggle Studies, Divination, and Ancient Studies to her schedule. None of them really stick, and Helga absolutely despises the impreciseness of Divination.

1884 | Her father decides to run for Minister, which initially seems promising. The thought of being the Minister's daughter (and all the social capital to be gained) outweighs the embarrassment of having to listen to her father be criticized by the papers... until he very rudely has a heart attack on the campaign trail. He recovers, but not before causing Helga a tremendous amount of secondhand embarrassment.

1885 | Helga is disappointed when her OWL results arrive. With only a handful of classes available to her at a NEWT level, Helga opts to take only four: Herbology, Astronomy, Charms, and History of Magic.

1887 | Helga takes her NEWTs and graduates from Hogwarts. While eager to take part in the season, her social ambitions are impeded by the disaster at the Wizarding World Market that leaves much of society in mourning.

1889 | Eugene has always been a good brother, but then he goes and ruins Helga's good opinion of him when he becomes a husband and a father during the year without so much as a proper courtship or engagement! Of course, he couldn't help what happened during the amortentia scandal, but there's no preventing the resentment that Helga harbors towards him for the ill-timed scandal, even if it dies down after a few months.

Presently | Still unmarried but with high spirits, Helga doubles down on her intentions to marry above herself. Now under the wing of society's top socialites, she is certain she will be married within the year... if she doesn't kill herself (or someone else) first!
Personality
Bubbly. Socially ambitious. Friendly. Two-faced. Fiercely loyal to those she's closest to. Talkative. Carries herself with an air of girlish immaturity. Dramatic. Smarter than she cares to appear. Concerned with all matters of status and reputation. Fond of parties.
Other
SKILLS
  • Fluent in English and French.
  • Her charm work is impeccable, though she rarely carries a wand on her person.
  • Unable to cast a patronus, though it would likely take the form of a squirrel or other woodland creature.
  • Delights in reading the language of flowers, and is—surprisingly—decent at chess.
TRIVIA
  • Her amortentia is the comforts of home, rose gardens, and a specific cologne that she can't quite pinpoint the source of.
  • A natural klutz, her ankles are weak and are prone to giving out on occasion.
  • Her boggart takes the form of an ominous shadow figure.
  • Although not a blood purist, Helga prefers to keep company with wealthier purebloods with the hope of making the most advantageous match possible.
