Appearance:
Cupcake has very pale skin which leads to a striking contrast with her warm brown hair and eyes. She furthers this contrast by preferring bold, striking colours. She tends to wear witches' robes 80% of the time but will don muggle wear appropriate for her station when the situation calls for it. In build she’s on the plump side of curvy and somewhat tall for a lady, making her stand out from her sisters and in a crowd. She is left handed like her twin.

History:
1869 Handsome and Cupcake are born. Cupcake is too young to care about the strange names or people's reaction to them.

1870 Pumpkin is born. Cupcake doesn't really care.

1871 Sweetie is born. Cupcake is jealous.

1873 Darling is born. Cupcake still only cares enough to be jealous.

1874 Honey is born. Cupcake is annoyed to have another sibling but at least it's another sister. At four years old she's petty enough that Handsome, aka attention hog #1, being disappointed is just another perk.

1875  Cupcake shows her first sign of magic in causing a spider to enlarge until it explodes. The family celebrates and she basks in the attention.

1877 They move to Hogsmeade.

1879 Handsome shows his first sign of magic. Cupcake is happy for him, especially because it means she won't be heading to Hogwarts alone as she thought.

1881-1882 Cupcake and Handsome head to Hogwarts and are both sorted into Gryffindor. Some of the other kids make fun of Cupcake's name but she still doesn't care about her name. She has a talent for charms and transfiguration but is a lackluster student, believing that her grades will somehow turn out alright. She passes everything but doesn't do particularly well.

1882-1883 Pumpkin goes to Hogwarts and is sorted into Ravenclaw. At least she's closer than being stuck at home?

1883-1884 Sweetie goes to Hogwarts and is in Slytherin. Cupcake adds care of magical creatures, ghoul studies and music to her classes. She joins a few student clubs but none hold her attention for long.

1884-1885 Father dies. The fire destroys Wellingtonshire and the family is uprooted and moved to Irvingly. For the first time in her life Cupcake has to face the reality that there's no way everything will work out okay. She becomes very reserved, only trying to put on a brave face for her younger sisters. Darling joins Hogwarts and becomes a Hufflepuff.

1885-1886 Cupcake takes her OWLS and the results are underwhelming but somehow she manages to pass everything. She decides to continue with transfiguration, charms, care of magical creatures, herbology and ghoul studies

1886-188 Mother pursues a career in healing now that she's no longer in mourning. Cupcake is truly happy for her she just wishes she'd waited for the school term to start before starting the career and basically abandoning them for the summer.

Honey comes to Hogwarts and is sorted into Hufflepuff.

Privately Cupcake disagrees with the halfbreed ban and quietly signs Darling's petition but she doesn't actively object to it or campaign against it.

1887-1888
Sweetie and Handsome fall out over Handsome's friend. Cupcake would like all the drama to be over please.

Mother dies in the Wizarding World market tragedy. Cupcake is crushed but with mother gone and Handsome drawing into himself someone had to be there for the younger girls. Normally bright and optimistic Cupcake becomes dull and pessimistic, only putting on a show of normalcy for her sisters. She is not impressed when Handsome turns to alcohol as a coping mechanism.

Cupcake graduates with passes across the board but no spectacular results. She decides to become a debutante because it's kinda expected and she doesn't really know what else to do with her life.
