Florist @ The Florist Potts

Thistle is the family scientist. She excelled in transfiguration at school and likes to experiment with the flowers in the shop, crossing breeds and working more with the magical plants than the muggle. She is working on some benign Top Secret Project that she won't even share with her sisters. What is up to you, as long as she's not like breeding venomous tentacula with fanged geraniums.

Efrosinia Kushnir

Dahlia can be more shy than some of her sisters, but is very bright. She sometimes worries that her family's... oddness makes people look down on them. She does love the family business, but isn't sure she wants to continue on with it herself and her third year electives may reflect that! Her personality is largely open as long as she isn't super judgey. (She may also be an incoming 3rd year, depending on her birthday!)

Chloe East

The baby of all the Beauregard cousins, Leah is very content with that. She has a personality all her own however and with 3 older brothers has never had any issues making herself heard. She can come off as a bit bratty, but isn't a complete snob. Other than that she's pretty open!

CHRYSANTA LESTRANGE

— for Violetta Lestrange —
b. 1834 | UCPB | Slytherin Alumna | Philanthropist | Rep 10
Chrysanta "Chrystie" Lestrange (née Scrimgeour) is the mother of Violetta Lestrange. Born in 1834, Chrysanta attended Hogwarts and was sorted into Slytherin. She was always an upstanding young woman with with a knack for understanding people and their needs. After graduating from Hogwarts, Chrysanta was courted by and eventually married Aurelius Lestrange sometime between 1853-1855. The couple struggled to conceive for nearly a decade.

While the birth of Violetta — a daughter rather than a son — damaged their relationship, it was the loss of their stillborn son in 1872 that put the nail in the coffin. Chrysanta and her husband, while still giving off the appearance of a healthy marriage in the public eye, often pretend the other doesn't exist while at home. The one hope that remains in Chrysanta's heart is that her daughter will find happiness in her own life, but that hope has begun to fade in recent years.

The suggested PB is Kristin Scott Thomas, with alternatives to be brown-haired and blue-eyed.

❧ Immediate Ties: Violetta Lestrange, Argus Scrimgeour

CUPCAKE WHITLEDGE

— for Handsome Whitledge —
b. 1869 | UCHB | Gryffindor Alumna ('88) | Incoming Debutante | Rep 9
Cupcake Whitledge, affectionately referred to as "Duckie", is the fraternal twin sister of Handsome Whitledge. Born on December 29, 1869, Cupcake attended Hogwarts and was sorted into Gryffindor alongside her twin brother. Always the optimist, Cupcake was one of the few Whitledge siblings to embrace her name, taking on baking as a hobby. The only problem? She's awful with the oven, though none of her siblings have had the heart to tell her yet.

She's always been (unsurprisingly) closest with her brother, though has always avoided family drama to the best of her ability. After graduation, it's likely she'll pursue the path of a debutante; however, she remains unconvinced that getting married is something to stress over.

The suggested PB is Holly Taylor, with alternatives to at least slightly resemble Handsome's PB.

❧ Immediate Ties: All. Those. Damn. Whitledges.
