Personality: On a good day, Serena is very cheerful and outgoing. She usually has a smile on her face. Other people say that it feels as if the room is instantly brighter the second she walks in the room. However, on a bad day, Serena keeps to herself and finds it difficult to do the simplest of tasks. Thankfully, these days don’t happen very often and it takes a lot to ruin her day.
Serena is an excellent listener and is always there for the people she cares about. She tries to treat everyone with kindness, even when she doesn’t like someone. Serena is a hard-worker when it comes to school. She will gladly help her fellow classmates with her homework, within reason. However, while Serena can make friends easily, she often feels lonely. She loves to give people advice, but whenever Serena needs advice or help with something, she often finds that there is no-one for her to turn to. Serena has turned to songwriting to help with venting out her feelings.
Serena is very creative. She plays guitar, sings, and writes short stories. However, she hasn’t shared her work with anyone and would be embarrassed if anyone heard her play or sing.
Serena likes rainy days where she can read by a window with a mug of hot chocolate to sip out of.
Despite doing well in school, Serena does not enjoy doing homework. She especially dislikes writing essays. This causes Serena to procrastinate a bit. However, she always makes sure her homework is done on time. Even if it means staying up all night to do it. Serena also dislikes bullying and will always step in when she sees it happening in the halls.
Serena likes to get involved when situations arise. She hates sitting back for a long time and not being able to do anything. However, she doesn’t typically go in guns blazing right away. She will take a few moments to evaluate everything first before jumping in. She typically makes note of her surroundings and, if applicable, thinks of what the people involved have said or done with their actions before taking action.

Appearance: Serena is caucasian. She has long, light blonde hair. Her hair is naturally wavy, but occasionally she’ll straighten it. She has round-shaped blueish-green eyes. She currently measures in at 4’11.

Character Background: Serena Bowen is the only child of Neal and Sarah Bowen. Serena grew up in a modest home and never had to worry about money or where her next meal would come from. This has caused her to become a bit naive about the world. However, due to both of her parents being Aurors, a good portion of her childhood was spent at her Aunt Elizabeth and Uncle Peter’s house. Serena’s parents love her, but neither of them wanted to stop their careers when she was born. So the decision was that only one of them would go on missions at a time, barring an occasion that both of them are needed. However, Neal and Sarah would often get pulled in to each other’s investigations, meaning that Serena would have to go to her aunt and uncle’s place. Serena grew up longing to be around people her own age and couldn’t wait for her 11th birthday when she would head to Hogwarts.

First Instance of Magic: Serena’s first bit of accidental magic happened when she was four. Serena had spilled her cereal and milk all over herself. Her beloved stuffed rabbit, Mr. Bun, was placed on a tall counter by her father so that the rabbit wouldn’t get dirty. Serena, however, wanted Mr. Bun. So she stuck her right hand out, and Mr. Bun flew towards her. Her father was so happy that she had shown her first bit of magic that he gave her a big hug disregarding the fact that Serena was still covered with food.
