Appearance:

Izzy has a warmth to her darker features that fits her generally approachable demeanor. Her dark hair had a reddish tint to it and her eyes are a lighter brown, set into a face that is open and honest. A light smattering of freckles dust the cheeks on her heart-shaped face. Her expressions are earnest and easy to read. Iz carries herself in a constant rush, trying to make sure she catches everything she needs to. She is good at blending into the background and appears approachable. Typically she’s pretty good at getting people to talk without much persuasion.

She is right-handed and stands at an average 5’1”. Izzy typically wears blouses and skirt combinations typical of her class. She likes softer colors and often pairs them with neutrals. She can often be found with ink stains on her hands, in her signature dark blue.

History:

1874-1885
Surprise! Twins Morgan and Isolde join the already prolific and boisterous Glynn clan. With Enid and Gwyn joining the house hardly a year prior it is no wonder it takes a few years before the next sibling is added. It only amounts to two more, Nimue and Cadagon, which really is plenty. Siblings go off to Hogwarts in turn, spending inconsistent amounts of years there, some the three guaranteed by their parents, including Gwyn, some the five for OWLs, and rarely, like Enid, the full seven. Her sister’s dreams of healing make perfect sense though.

1885-1890
Hogwarts It is finally her turn to head off to Hogwarts, Morgan in tow, where she is swiftly sorted into Slytherin. Her bubbly outgoing nature and fierce ability to make friends don’t quite fit the selection, but her penchant for gossip and her dreams to make something of herself, definitely do. Morgan is sorted into — though and it’s quite odd not to be with her twin all of the time, but as somebody who has grown up with a close-knit family and always sharing something, it’s not as hard as she would imagine, once she warms up to it. Classes aren’t naturally easy for her, but she does work hard and finds she has a talent for writing, no matter the subject. It helps that she is an avid reader and finds the skill useful, even in classes she needs to work harder in. For her third year she adds Care of Magical Creatures and Divination. The first is obvious, but the second is more for fun. Morgan makes it through her 3/4th year while Isolde pushes through to complete OWLs before considering her studies done.

1890-Present
Reporting The decision to try the Prophet was a natural one. Witch Weekly had also been briefly considered, but Iz wants to be more than just a gossip, she wants her writing to mean something! She is a devout reader of the magazine though. Reporting was an occupation that allowed her to get out of the Glen every day (she loves it there, she swears), and it combined her love of being social and writing. She spends a year as an intern, which is crap and she makes up the income by busking in the London streets with her fiddle. Once she becomes a full reporter she naturally slides into the Social & Gossip column, but chooses to write under a penname. She also dabbles in photography.

Personality:

APPROACHABLE | PERSUASIVE | ROMANTIC
Izzy is a hopeless romantic. She feels her position at the Prophet is to help those who need the right push toward one another. She could be considered a matchmaker, if she were more open about it, but she tends to be pretty sly in her suggestions, hoping to make those she’s trying to connect think it was their idea. Charming and social, she is a natural gossip, and therefore can chat with anyone on a variety of subjects from dresses to quidditch. Still young, she can be a bit naive and idyllic when it comes to romance and more worldly matters, especially of those in the upper classes, but she has a good heart and is just trying to help people be happy. There is nothing more Izzy would like than to be swept off her feet in a whirlwind romance so she could write novels instead of articles.

Other:

» Izzy plays the fiddle and well.
» She is fluent in Welsh and English and can somewhat converse in Gaelic.
» She has a small cocker spaniel named Anwen who follows her around London.
