Did You Know?
Braces, or suspenders, were almost universally worn due to the high cut of men's trousers. Belts did not become common until the 1920s. — MJ
Had it really come to this? Passing Charles Macmillan back and forth like an upright booby prize?

History
1872: Born as the middle child and youngest daughter of her parents in Inverness, Scotland.
1878: Was caught in the garden shed at her parents home with a small, mouldy, marionette that she had somehow animated. The episode was only brief but confirmed her magical heritage.
1881: Convinced her father to let her take sword fighting lessons after helping him practice with his officer's sword. These lessons continued throughout the rest of her childhood and she became quite competent.
1883: Started Hogwarts - sorted into Gryffindor as she had hoped.
Summer 1885: Involved in an incident one evening involving a werewolf that had changed under the moon. An older boy was seriously injured protecting her. It gave her a distrust of werewolves which also extended to animagi and the like. She was never told what happened to the boy, or the attacker.
1888: Finished OWLs with good grades.

September 1890 Takes a part time position on weekends at her friend's fencing school.
September 1892: Promoted to position of full Cursebreaker
Late 1893: An incident in London involving transporting dragons caused severe injuries to a couple of her friends. Daesyn was was visiting Grimgots and lent her hand in dealing with crowd control on that day so was fortunate to not face a dragon herself, but part of her feels like she missed out on some action.
January 1894: Anonymous letter received promising his hand to Daesyn in marriage at her parents house but so far nothing has come of it.
Personality
A brave and aggressive woman who would have become a soldier in the Black Watch had she been a son. Respects her family and her place in society greatly and wishes to serve to make people safer. Adores sword fighting and teaching it, uses it to keep her in shape. The flexibility of Grimgots who are happy to allow wizards to use whatever message they choose means she sometimes carries her sword when outside of more polite society.

She is receptive to the idea that she should be getting married soon, but is keen on finding a man with similar interests to her and doesn't relish the idea of giving up her important job to start having children. As the middle child she has a little less pressure than her already married sister, something that she thanks the older woman for regularly.
Other
The sword she acquired from her grandfather was silvered generations ago because of a silly muggle superstition involving slaying monsters with silver
