Appearance:
Flo has aged well, at least she thinks so. She’s maintained her slender figure over the years despite the birth of her children. She stands at 5 feet and 4 inches and almost looks taller when she is angry. She has fiery red hair and chestnut brown eyes set against creamy white skin. Unlike many of her siblings she does not freckle, although this is likely because she stays out of the sun rather than doesn’t have the propensity for it. Because she has standing in society she tries to keep up with both the latest muggle and wizarding fashions, more often than not she is wearing muggle gowns. Her wand hand is her right hand.

Personality: Flo is sweet and kind to almost everyone. But she is a force to reckoned with when angered, generally this comes from one of her kin being harmed, putting themselves into danger, etc. This comes from her fierce protection and love of her family. She is also incredibly pragmatic and perceptive and keeps a tight ship on her kin and their fiances. She’s not beyond meddling in her children’s affairs, especially now that they are old enough to live their own lives, but she is well meaning and only wants what is best for them.
