Appearance:

Eyes: Like her sister, Nectar has deep brown eyes.

Hair: Though a slightly lighter brown tone than her sister's hair, her hair has more curl to it.

Height: 5′ 2″

Clothing: Preferring to follow the latest fashion trend, Nectar does tend to wear accessories that are more unique to her (though some are family heirlooms), such as unique necklaces and hats, some from foreign countries. Although, these accessories are never really too ridiculous to be frowned upon by civilized society.

Dominant Hand: Right

History:

Pre-Birth: Her dear sister, Ambrosia is born.

1868: Nectar graces the world with her existence.

1872: Big sister shows signs of magic. Nectar is too young to care.

1874: Showing signs of magic one year older than her older sister had been, she had been having a piano lesson, when she got frustrated and made some of the keys shatter. Mama and Papa were not too happy.

1877: Chaos with the muggles, and as mother was grabbing some stuff while father had the daughters hidden away at Hogsmeade, mother is grabbed and killed for being a witch. The muggles had seen her use magic as she packed what she had been hoping to take with her.

1878: Ambrosia is sent to Hogwarts, and Nectar is sad, given that they had just lost their mother and the distance of her older sister felt like too much more loose.

1879: Nectar gets her Hogwarts letter, and is sorted into Gryffindor. She is glad to be able to be in school with Ambrosia.

1883: Ambrosia gets good grades in OWLs. Nectar asks her to help with studying, so she can get good grades as well when her OWLs come along.

1884: Nectar has her OWLs. Nectar is proud to get passing grades, and better than passing grades.

1885: Sad to see Ambrosia leave Hogwarts for the next year, she tries to spend as much time with her as she can during summer. But three weeks after school ends, Papa dies from a werewolf attack. Both sisters are sent to live with Uncle Deiphobus. Nectar tries to move past the loss, working on studying more and spending time with Ambrosia.

1886: Graduating with good NEWTs, Nectar is still shaken from the loss of her father, even in her debut. Still, she acts as society expects, though does have the occasional comment or two of how she objects to the traditional 'season' that she is meant to take part in.

1887: Ambrosia's fiancé dies in the tragic Wizarding World Market chaos. To Nectar's horror, she learns that the poor man died in her own sister's arms. Nectar has had no idea how she could comfort her sister, and it bugs her.

Personality:

Extravert: Loving to be around people, despite the lack of enjoyment at stuffy rich people parties, Nectar tends to get more energetic with the more time she spends with others. She also tends to act and speak without fully thinking her actions through, though she hasn't gotten herself into any scandolous actions (thankfully).

Intuitive: Her instincts are her friend. Avoiding big trouble has been something that she prides herself on. While her mouth might get her into an unpleasant disagreement, she does have the sense of when to step out of something before it gets too bad.

Feeler: Right off the bat, she comes off as a warm and friendly person, unless the other person does not. Instead of always being blunt, she does try to be diplomatic when it comes to the feelings of others.

Perceiver: Though she does act her age (most of the time), she is playful and casual (in a respectable way) with her friends. Loving to chat and have fun with various activities that women of her status are allowed to participate in, she would rather go have fun, instead of tending to responsibilities.

Other:

Amortentia: Fresh air in a field, her mother's perfume.

Patronus: Can't cast one.

Boggart: All of her family gone, being all alone in the world.

Star Sign: Aries

Hobbies: Outings with friends, several respectable sports for women of her class (fencing, archery, and tennis), and learning languages (so far she has learned English, French, Greek, Mermish, Japanese, and Gobbledegook).
