Hair Color and Style: Her hair is shiny, pitch black, and wavy. It goes about halfway down her back and she keeps herself well-groomed all the time. Her hairstyle changes frequently, but she most often keeps it out of her face with a headband or a ponytail. For special occasions she will straighten it. She also has feathered bangs that lean toward the right side of her face.
Eyes: A deep chocolate brown and almond-shaped. She almost always puts on eye makeup (shadow, liner, and mascara) first thing in the morning, and she regularly tweezes her eyebrows to make them perfect.
Face: Bianca has a stereotypically beautiful face. Her skin is incredibly smooth and she has high cheekbones, which she accentuates with a slight layer of blush. There are no freckles, pimples, or scars that mark her face. Her lusciously plump lips are very alluring and her nose turns ever so slightly upward at the end.

~+Personality Statistics+~
Interaction: Bianca is a somewhat shy person, but that doesn’t mean she doesn’t want to meet people and make friends. It’s hard to get her out of her initial shell, but she’s friendly after she emerges. She is extremely opinionated, though, so she can get very defensive around people who disagree with her. She also has the tendency to lecture people about things that they do differently than she does (her sister is the target of many of these spiels). But she really means no harm by it; she just wants to make everyone into good human beings.
Inner Being: When no one’s around, she reads and studies. She likes the quiet, where she can really concentrate, and isn’t very attracted to parties. She does, however, have a brave streak. She fully understands that bravery isn’t about not having fears; it’s about facing your fears for what you believe is the right thing. And she has immense loads of courage, even though the opportunity for her to show it doesn’t often present itself.
Intelligence: She is a brilliant student who reads endlessly. She has a knack for memorization and can remember almost anything she reads in a book or hears in a lecture. Her love of learning is unrivaled, but she does tend to obsess over school a little more than is necessary. Her slight downfall is test-taking; she rarely gets lower than an O on exams, but she stresses herself out over them and anxiously studies through the night each time she knows one is scheduled for the next day. This behavior is extremely annoying to her friends.
Fears: What her mother would think if she found out Bianca was a lesbian. She has, on many occasions, sat her mother down with the intention to tell her, but has always chickened out at the last minute. It makes her wonder whether she really should be a Gryffindor, but she feels better after reminding herself that the Sorting Hat does not lie.
Goals: To see the day her sister finally grows up, to prove her worth as a Gryffindor, to enter the Department for the Regulation and Control of Magical Creatures to try and get equal rights for species such as the centaurs, house elves, and goblins.
Good Characteristics: Friendly, brave, brilliant, loyal, polite, opinionated, charismatic, ambitious, careful, pays attention to detail, caring, loving, wants to do things for the greater good
Bad Characteristics: Reserved, introverted, shy, overly serious and studious, obsessive perfectionist, frustrated easily at times
Secrets: She is homosexual (though it’s only a secret to her mother and younger brothers), she was dumped by her first love because she was “too uptight”
Likes: School, literature, calm music, quiet, getting work done ahead of time, studying, reading, lecturing others, being in charge (after all, if you want something done right, you need to do it yourself)
Dislikes: Troublemakers, loud music and noises, cowardice, homophobes, disloyalty, drunks, druggies, bad students, irresponsibility, immaturity
~+Abilities and Possessions+~
Special Abilities: Bianca’s Patronus/Animagus form is a wolf. She can produce a corporeal Patronus, and she started the long process of obtaining her Animagus about a year and a half ago. She is also studying to be an Occlumens.
Magical Strengths: Transfiguration, charms, deciphering runes, potions
Magical Weaknesses: Dueling, divination of all kinds, dark magic, remembering spells under pressure (in practical real-world situations, not tests)
Other Abilities: She grew up in a Muggle family so she can definitely live in the Muggle world. She is also good at analyzing literature, writing poetry, and organization.
Wand Properties: 9¾ inches, elm, unicorn hair core, springy
Possessions: Wizard chess set
~+History and Family Information+~
Family: She grew up with her Muggle mother, Eva, six Muggle brothers (Toby [21], Gavin [20], Braeden [18], Xander [14], Rupert [15], and Oliver [9]), and her twin sister, Isabella. Her mother is quite loose with men and goes through them quickly. The only two of her siblings who have the same father are Xander and, of course, Bella. Her family life is not a pleasant one at all; her three older brothers have already moved out to start their own lives while she’s still at home to make sure her younger siblings are taken care of.
Pets: A snowy white owl named Celeste.
History: Bianca’s childhood consisted of her and her siblings taking care of each other because their mother was never around to do it herself. She brought different men home all the time so they never knew quite what to expect, and on the nights she came home alone, she was either too drunk to walk or higher than a kite. This tension-filled life drove her older brothers off as soon as they were old enough to live on their own. No one in the family feels any obligation to their mother, except for Oliver, who is still too young to develop those feelings for their mother, and Bianca, who tries not to blame their mother for being ill (addiction is, after all, just a disease).
Despite never really having a good role model to look up to, Bianca was a relatively well-mannered child. She grew up being “one of the guys” and was close to Isabella when they were young and used to play together with their brothers. However, because of their family situation, Bianca grew up at a young age and found her sister’s antics to be entirely disgusting and inappropriate. That was not the way a young lady should behave! She used to believe that her sister was really a boy born into a girl’s body. A real girl would care about her clothes and appearance! Their difference in interests and priorities eventually pushed the girls apart.
It was quite a surprise when they both got their Hogwarts letters on their eleventh birthday. They both spent that summer together, worrying about what a magic school would be like, whether they would fit in, what if they weren’t good at magic, and all the usual worries of an eleven-year-old entering a completely new world. This period of time brought them closer, but it wasn’t a permanent change. Once they were sorted into separate houses and made their own groups of friends, the two hardly ever saw each other and reverted to their cool attitudes toward each other.
When she was fourteen, Bianca realized that she was attracted to girls and started dating her first girlfriend, Candace, whom she quickly fell in love with. But it wasn’t meant to last; she was dumped because she was too serious and didn’t know how to have fun, or so Candace claimed. Apparently she was “soul-suckingly boring” and so the relationship ended after four months. Devastated, Bianca went to the only person she knew she could trust: her sister. Isabella was understanding, which came as a surprise to Bianca, but she was nevertheless grateful. It was then that she made Bella promise not to tell their mother or anyone who might tell her because she was terrified that she would be disowned or something. To this day, she still feels awkward when Candace is around and can be found staring at the girl with a forlorn look of longing on her face.
