Appearance:

Standing at 5'6 1/2" with an athletic build and her right hand as her dominant wand hand, Donna had fair skin, dark brown eyes that are rich and soft just like chocolate, and a smile that could be seen as warm and welcoming. She possessed a "heartless sort of voice" that would become slightly thoughtless when she was insensitive.

Donna generally wore her healer robes when working over at St Mungo's Hospital. Otherwise, she dressed in Muggle Victorian Era clothing, which consists of a long, plain tunic with a long skirt in the shade of crimson and a scarf along with Victorian boots for shoes, though she tends to wear wizarding robes once in a while due to her Pureblood class. She usually kept her hair tied back in a Gibson-styled fashion. While Donna never really gave much to her appearance, she liked to appear presentable at all times.

Biography

Early Life (1868 - 1879)
Donna Marline "Donnie" Conray was born on 24 April 1868, to Ennis and Nettie Conray (née Langhorne), who were both born into blue-collared Pureblood families.

Donna grew up in Conray Cottage in Bristol, England. Donna was homeschooled in basic studies such as reading (which she could not stand), writing, and mathematics. Unlike other families, the Conrays were not considered the wealthiest but they were not considered the poorest either. In a way that not all Pureblood families are supposed to feel, the Conrays are proud of their social and Pureblood class, which was to continue to give back to their community and spread kindness to those who needed it most.

Donna's father, Ennis, was fond of being there for others along with being a huge help and being encouraging, Donna being that particular target for Ennis to help and encourage. He once told Donna that, one day, she was going to be the best at what she chooses to do career-wise. On another occasion, Ennis made Donna realize that it's always great to keep reaching her goals.

When Donna was younger, she had a Manx cat named Newton, whom the family had inherited from Nettie's great-grandmother, Ethel. Donna was very fond of Newton but was sad to let him go because of housing issues. Despite this, Donna has a fairly happy childhood.

Hogwarts Years (1879 - 1886)

First Year
Donna began attending Hogwarts School of Witchcraft and Wizardry in 1879 at the appropriate age of eleven. Like every other Conray and extended family member before her, she was sorted into Ravenclaw House. On her first trip on the Hogwarts Express, Donna met and became very good friends with Morton Anderson. Morton allowed Donna to share his compartment and purchased a decent amount of goodies and snacks from the food trolley to share with her. Donna would stand up for Morton to Hufflepuff bully, Clinton Clubb, later on.

Donna and Morton first met Freeda Whitlock on the train as well, though it seemed that Freeda did not particularly take to Morton well. Freeda, especially, was annoyed by what she saw as Morton kept on talking about things that were not relevant and would seem him freak out over little things that never bothered him.

Prior to the Hallowe'en feat that took place, Freeda said that Morton was quite a chatterbox and did not learn when to stop talking, which made Donna feel disappointed and angry with her. Morton overheard and went to the Clocktower Courtyard. That evening, it had been announced that a Yeti was loose. Looking at each other in a panic, Donna and Freeda searched for Morton after hearing that he was in danger. Successfully using the Levitation Charm, Freeda used this to levitate the Yeti's icicle, knocking it out. Despite the three not getting detention, they became really close friends.




Second Year
Donna's second year in 1880 started out rough and had gradually gotten a bit worse. Throughout the summer that took place, Ethel, Nettie's great-grandmother, had come down with a mysterious illness, only for her to pass away a little over a week later. This saddened Donna and her family rather greatly. Furthermore, this made Donna's contact with her friends a little sporadic.

When Donna tried to get onto Platform 9 3/4 to join Morton, Freeda, and the rest of her housemates and peers, she had found that she had missed the train. A distraught Donna groaned, making her feel angry. It was later found out that Lucian, Donna's younger cousin, had been sorted into Slytherin, which made him the first-ever member of the Conray family bloodline to ever be placed into a different House other than Ravenclaw, which came as a bit of a shock and a surprise.




Third Year
Donna's third year in 1881 started out a bit easier than the year prior, and gradually got a little easier as the weight seemed to have been lifted off of her shoulders. When she had finished exploring for school supplies in Diagon Alley, Donna met up with Morton and Freeda at the Three Broomsticks Inn.

Upon starting the term, the third years began to take new lessons. While Donna decided on Divination and Care of Magical Creatures as electives, Morton chose Care of Magical Creatures as well and Arithmancy and Freeda chose the same electives as Donna. Morton, Freeda, and Donna went on their first Hogsmeade trip the week before Hallowe'en came. Together, the Ravenclaw trio went to various different places such as Honeydukes and the Three Broomsticks.




Fourth Year
Before her fourth year at Hogwarts in 1882, Donna spent much of her summer holidays at her great-aunt Luetta's farmhouse in the countryside of Cornwall, England with her parents, sharing a room with her older cousin, Dorothea. With the other extended members of the Conray family, they attended a Quidditch Croquet game. After the game, they took a nice drive.

In the evening after the game, a group of unwanted house guests arrived at the farmhouse dressed in suits with a black top hat. They proceeded to share with Ennis and Nettie that they were no longer "allowed" at the farmhouse to continue their summer holiday festivities, and they were colleagues of Luetta. Luetta has since denied her involvement and the two men were no longer a threat, meaning that Ennos, Nettie, cousin Dorothea, and Donna could continue their festivities at the farmhouse until Donna and Dorothea go back to Hogwarts.

On September 1, Donna and her friends departed for Hogwarts as soon as they board the Hogwarts Express.




Fifth Year
Before returning to Hogwarts in 1883 for her fifth year, Donna learned that she and another Ravenclaw student had been appointed Prefects for Ravenclaw House. At that moment, she took her position as Prefect very seriously. Once the school year started for her, Donna started doing some research on general injuries and how to treat them. This skyrocketed her future and what she wanted to do once she graduates from Hogwarts.

Halfway through the year, Donna was one of the few who had visited her father, Ennis, and checked on him while he was staying at St Mungo's Hospital until he was nursed back to good health and was able to go back home after being bit by a rabid dog that got loose, though his injuries were minor.




Sixth Year
During the summer of 1884, Donna had learned that she had received her O.W.L.s Scores, only failing Astronomy and Defence Against the Dark Arts. Donna expressed her disappointment, though explained she would do her very best for the upcoming school year.

In September 1884, Donna was a little late to the Welcoming Feast due to an encounter with a fellow Ravenclaw housemate, a seventh year, as she seemed to have been crying and Donna did her best to calm her down. In October 1884 during a Hogsmeade visit, a sixth-year Slytherin seemed to have had a food allergy from eating one of the sweets he had over at Honeydukes. It turned out, however, that Freeda placed a spell on the candy they ate, which made Donna disappointed in her.




Seventh Year
Donna spent the summer of 1885 in London along with her parents and most of her extended family on her mother's side. Together, the family would host weekly picnics by the water.

Donna returned for her seventh year in September 1885, and continued to take her studies and position as Prefect very seriously. During a Hogsmeade weekend trip, Donna, Freeda, and Morton met up at the Three Broomsticks to catch up after everything that has gone on thus far during the school year as far as classes and assignments. At the last Prefect meeting before the Christmas holidays, it was brought up by another House Prefect that they had an idea on how to be more helpful with future events as well as helping students as needed when the Christmas holidays were over and before graduation.

It being her final year, Donna sat for her N.E.W.T.s sometime in 1886. Donna was able to complete her schooling with excellent marks, passing her exams with flying colors.

After Hogwarts (1886 - present)

After Donna completed her education at Hogwarts in 1886, she was able to attain a position at St Mungo's Hospital as a trainee healer. She then went on to become a Junior Healer for Creature-Induced Injuries in 1887 before moving up to become a Healer for Creature-Induced Injuries in 1889 after serving only two years as a Junior Healer in that department.

Personality: Few know the true Donna Conray, but at the very least, she's relaxed and optimistic. Of course, she's also energetic, especially considering they're mixed with being stubborn as well. Her optimism, though, is what she's often adored for. Friends usually count on this and her relaxing nature whenever they need cheering up.

Other:

• The accessories that Donna wears are a green photo locket necklace and a navy blue gemstone ring
  
• Donna's Boggart is not being able to protect loved ones or herself
  
• Donna's Patronus is a Fox
  
• Donna's Amortentia is Cookies, Bread, and Blankets
  
• Donna likes minimalism and blueberries
  
• Donna does not like frogs, reading, and bananas
  

Sample Roleplay Post:

October 15, 1884 — Clocktower Courtyard

"Ah, Lucian, just the person I wanted to see on this glorious afternoon."

At that moment, Donna was leaning against the doorframe of the Clocktower Courtyard entrance with a book tucked under her arm as she peered her head around the corner, watching her cousin reading a book he must've gotten from the library.

"I'm not sure if your Professor told you this or not, but remember you told me about failing your Charms assignment last week? Well, the lad himself asked me to look over it — give my thoughts on the matter and such."

With a lazy smirk that appeared on her face, Donna drew herself away from the entryway and was able to make her way to where Lucian was sitting. Her shoes tapped against the gravel, causing a light echo with each click from underneath her shoes.

"I had just finished going through your assignment, and I have to say, you've really lost your noggin, little cousin. Paragraphs two and five definitely need some revision on your end. Also, it's highly recommended that you get rid of paragraph four. What you wrote here about what you've learned recently about the Confundus Charm is completely irrelevant and definitely not the way you would describe it in writing."

She pulled the book from underneath her arm and neatly placed it on his left side, where no books and papers were scattered about before giving Lucian a smile of possible false or true innocence. Little did Lucian know that once he opened the book, he'd be greeted with an onslaught of notes, tearing apart nearly everything that Lucian had written with pieces of harsh but well-intentioned criticism.
