💀 Before Hogwarts:


Skylar Motting was born in a hospital in Sheffield, England, but she spent most of her life in Kettering. She lived with her Muggle parents Christian and Sara, who have one other daughter, Rachel, who doesn't possess any magic ability. Most of her life so far Skylar has felt different and like she didn't belong with her "normal" family. She wasn't perfect and popular like her older sister, who had nearly everything she'd ever wished for, even though she was too spoiled to realize it. She wasn't very happy at home, she felt like her parents didn't care about her, she stayed out in the woods and wrote stories and poems in her notebooks, trying to vent out her feelings.

Only her father had some idea of magic but he said that it came from a distant ancestor and she just happened to be cursed with powers, meaning he still follows along with Skylar being a demon of some sort. Obviously resenting this, and knowing they wouldn't be of any help, she figured out what she needed to do by sending a letter back to the sender and they sent someone to aide her in getting reading for the new school year. She ended up staying at the Leaky Cauldron until the start of the school year due to family matters.

💀 Discovered Her Magic:


It was one Christmas when the family was eating dinner and listening to the radio when Mr. Motting began "gushing" over Rachel's accomplishments in school. Their mother joined in, and Skylar ate in silence, trying to ignore the conversation and instead recall an article she'd read on the internet but she just couldn't drown out the conversation; suddenly a rush of anger, resentment, jealousy, and rage just overwhelmed her and the radio exploded, causing everyone to yelp.

Skylar didn't suspect anything then, but after her father threw the radio away, telling her to go get a new one after she finished dinner, she just snapped. She hated how her sister was always being treated like a lioness that you had to praise or you'd get eaten while she was treated like a dog you ordered around and didn't give a second thought.

She interrupted her parents and complained about how much attention her sister got, how no one listened to her or thought about how well she did. As her face got redder, strange things began to happen around the room. Forks, spoons, cups and plates rose into the air, pointed at her family. Cupboards, cabinets, large appliances, and window blinds shook, as if there were an earthquake. Everyone just stared around in horror, scared at this seemingly supernatural event. But once they realized that it was her doing, they quickly got up.

"I knew she was a demon," hissed her mother, which stopped Skylar's long rant abruptly. She just stared at her parents in disbelief. They were still treating her like she didn't belong after everything she'd done. They just watched her, waiting for her to hurt them or do something demonic, which she didn't want to do. Skylar just wanted to be accepted and treated somewhat like Rachel, who was watching her with "innocent" eyes, but they both knew that this was just adding more points to the elder sister likeability.

Eventually Skylar just got so fed up and ran away, leaving them to clean up the mess. She stayed with her friend overnight but when she came back home, her parents met her with a letter stamped with red wax. Figuring it was some submission form to a mental institute or something deceitful, she ran up to her room and ripped open the letter, reading it. At first she laughed, thinking it was a joke, but after reading it thoroughly about ten times, she came to realize it wasn't a joke. Skylar was really a witch, unlike her family. And she was actually happy about something concerning herself for sometime.

💀 Personality:


Skylar can be thought of as emo, but she tries to disguise her depression by trying to act normal and happy around people she doesn't know that well, and usually fails miserable. She's very sarcastic and gets annoyed easily by people who seem to exaggerate their emotions. Skylar's kind of bipolar, meaning she can snap easily and change from being joyful to furious within seconds. She's friendly enough and doesn't mind talking to anyone who doesn't judge her like her family, but she suspects that being at a school full of gifted students like her won't be much of a problem.

💀 Appearance:


Skylar is a blonde with blue eyes and a petite figure. She's 4'8 and weighs 110 lbs. Across her left cheek she has faint scar that runs from the bottom of her earlobe to her bottom eyelid. She has very light freckles across her nose, which she got from her mother, and her lips are rosy pink. When she walks she slumps slightly and her feet are slightly faced away from each other, like a duck. She has a piecing of a tiny star on the top of her left ear and a crescent at the bottom.
