Appearance: If Iris is the spitting image of her mother, Edelweiss's features favor her father's side of the family. Her skin is pale and freckled, much to her dismay, and she has a mass of red curls. The only feature she has of her mother is her eyes, though they are a slightly lighter brown than Iris'. She has never had a delicate frame, but feels she is rather average and hopes that might change with time, as she thinks every other of her classmates is a great deal better looking than her. Her wand arm is her right.

History:
1877Edelweiss is born a month early, the first child to Faustus and Jane Prewett. She grows up with a generally sunny disposition, doted on by her mother and father.
1880
Faustus is named Head Auror in a move that completely perplexes Edelweiss — she has absolutely no idea what this means except that Papa is away for longer periods of time. While Mama insists this is a good thing and that he loves them very much, Edelweiss understands very little, and seeks comfort in her mother.
1882
Iris is born and Edelweiss is eager to help out. Things don't go as planned and she trips, performing her first act of magic in making her little sister's bottle float up into the air above everyone's heads.
1883
Edelweiss has a nightmare that her mother dies, and is so terrified, she doesn't tell anyone. But then, Jane goes into labor. Edelweiss is not allowed in the room and begins crying. She is quickly comforted by her mother, who promises she will be just a little bit and then they will be able to eat ice cream together. Edelweiss paces but completely forgets all worries when she sees her brother. Elated, she's able to hold him and fawn over him with her father. But soon after, there's yelling. It soon calms down, but Edelweiss knows something has gone wrong. When her father comes in, Edelweiss knows her nightmare came true and is distraught. She tells her father who, in his distress, thinks her dream was no more than the similar ones he has that reflect these exact worries.
1885Since the death of their mother, Edelweiss takes it upon herself to help out with Iris and Mezereon. Iris attaches herself to Edelweiss, which is all well and good until it's not and Edelweiss wants her time alone. Edelweiss's vivid dreams continue, some of them good, some of them bad. Some come true, and some don't. She often finds it hard to sleep because her dreams keep waking her up - as if every time she has a dream she is jolted awake because it feels like she's falling.
1888-1889
First Year
Before Edelweiss goes off to Hogwarts, she has dreams of - nothing. She only wakes up remembering a lot of fog. That summer before she goes to Hogwarts, The Fog descends upon Hogsmeade. Edelweiss goes off to Hogwarts, though is mildly traumatized at the sight of Iris inconsolable. She promises to write every day. Once at Hogwarts, Edelweiss is sorted into Gryffindor. Her cousin, Flora is sorted ino Slytherin — another of her dreams come to fruition. By this time, Edelweiss understands her father's profession more and is particularly interested in Defense Against the Dark Arts. She isn't the best at it, but she isn't the worst.
1889-1890
Second Year
Edelweiss' second year passes without much of a hitch, except she keeps having dreams that can be both oddly specific, and extremely vague. At the worst of times, it can feel as if she's experiencing déjà vu. At the best of times, she realizes something is about to happen and sometimes is able to stop it: minor things mostly, like catching a juice jug as it falls at breakfast or remembering to bring an extra quill for her friends.
1890-1891
Third Year
Her third year is when she experiences her first vision during the day. She's at breakfast, getting up to get some more juice when it suddenly feels as if she's falling. She drops her drink and collapses at breakfast. Not wanting to worry her father, she convinces the school nurse to not contact him. Thoroughly scared and intrigued, Edelweiss takes up Divination, Earth Magic and Ancient Runes as her electives. Divination doesn't give her much help in figuring out what it is that she keeps experiencing. It's only in a book in the library that she realizes she might be a Seer.
1891-1892
Fourth Year
The visions start to get even more detailed, but nevertheless frustrating, seeing as sometimes they are extremely correct, others are quite imprecise and some only have one or two details that are different. The most drastic dream, however, is one she has showing her father at the Sanditon almost drowning. Her next vision is of the woman that was with him, and of her father saving the woman from drowning. Until now, she has told very few people of her abilities, but this is the vision that seems to convince her that sooner or later, she must tell someone.
