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

Appearance
General | Standing precisely five feet tall, Sam may not cut a particularly imposing or elegant figure, but what she lacks in presence, she more than makes up for in personality. With chestnut brown hair, startlingly blue eyes, and a clear complexion, it's not necessarily expected that she'll make a stellar match, but at least a good one.

Expressions | Taught to be guarded with her emotions, Sam has learned those lessons rather well, keeping her expressions carefully schooled in public. She is, however, known to become animated over topics she particularly enjoys.

Deportment | She walks with an elegant, floating gait, like many young ladies of her status, and carries herself with all the self-confidence that comes with that. She frequently holds her tension in her neck and shoulders.

Fashion | Finally able to start properly incorporating her own personality into her wardrobe, Samantha has begun dressing in bold colors and statement patterns. She's rather fond of themed balls, and will work with the dressmaker to create something truly unique for her to wear.

Accessories | Many and varied. For understated daywear, Sam will wear just simple jewelry and coordinated hats and gloves. Meanwhile, for eveningwear, she will theme her entire outfit around one accessory or item.

Scent | Sam typically employs a floral perfume of rose, jasmine, and lavender

Face Claim | Thomasin McKenzie
History
when i was a little girl, my mama said to me
what's your favorite flower, darling? i'll get you the seed
1877Samantha is born the second daughter and third child of Oscar and Delilah Lockridge. She is a fussy babe, but she is entirely healthy — just in desperate need of attention. She joins two elder siblings, a brother and sister pair.
1879Another brother is born; Samantha is two, and has little real interest in him.
1881Another daughter arrives. This time, Samantha has a bit more awareness of her sibling, being four years old, and she cares sweetly for her.
1886Samantha's first act of magic is rather tame, but it's enough.
1888When Samantha's Hogwarts acceptance letter arrives, Mother takes her shopping personally, while letting the household governess take the older pair along, and buys her an owl — a beautiful barn owl male she decides to name Ajax.
i said, dandelion, dandelion, that one's so pretty
she said, child, that one's not a flower, that one's just a weed
1888-90
First Years
Samantha is quickly sorted into Ravenclaw — so quickly, the hat is only upon her head for two seconds before she's pronounced for the house of wit and wisdom. She's a precocious student, but not so good at purely theoretical classes.
1890-93
OWL Years
Samantha selects Ancient Runes and Divination for her OWL electives, the former a suggestion by her older sister, who passed the class exceptionally. She's not great at it herself, but she does try.
1893-95
NEWT Years
To no surprise of anyone in Samantha's house, her only failing OWL is in the purely theoretical History of Magic, and her grade in Ancient Runes isn't spectacular, but at least she passes it. She opts to continue forward in Charms, Defense Against the Dark Arts, Divination, and Transfiguration. She's eager to see her NEWT grades, and of course to debut into society. Her elder sister marries in February of 1895, an event offering her the chance to meet a pair of male kittens from the same litter Mother has bought for her as a debut present. Sam decides to name them Castor and Pollux.
i still love those mellow yellow petals anyway
what's that thing they say about a rose by any other name?
