Physical Description:
Anastasia is the kind of person you notice when you walk into a room. Even if she is not very tall. She's even a little short. She is most noticeable for her haughty bearing and her somewhat regal manner. She has long locks of thick black hair with bluish highlights. Her grey eyes are deep, mysterious and slightly veiled. The most attentive will notice that she wears large clothes to hide her thinness. She tans very little and is easily sunburned.
She is allergic to many things (strawberries, orange, dust and bee and wasp stings) and always carries handkerchiefs with her, but she recovers surprisingly quickly from any illness.
Mental Description:
Anastasia is a sensitive, mysterious, music-loving and artistic girl. She loves reading and writing stories. She is quite talented in all subjects. If she had been in a Muggle school, she would have easily skipped a grade or two. That's how you see her if you know her very well.
As she spent her whole childhood in the family manor, she didn't have much interaction with children. The only child she saw was her 16-year-old cousin, who came over in the summer and at Christmas. So she is very unsociable and easily seen as a cold and distant girl.
She was taught good manners. Going to Hogwarts will be a shock for her. She could have stayed at home, away from civilisation. But she was going anyway. Not that she wanted to meet people her own age - she was completely bored - but she was bored.
In short, Anastasia wanted to see the country. She's a curious girl, who wants to discover new things. And Eigg Island was too small for her. She knew her home by heart. She wanted to see something new.
Biography:
Anastasia's definition of happiness: a good book, a comfy sofa, a little melody in the background, a fireplace, Christmas cakes and a big storm. So how lucky is she to have been born during one of those storms she loves so much. Being born on her island, during an incredible storm. In a big mansion, big and very dark. A big mansion, a castle, on top of the cliff. Of course, hidden from the hundred or so muggles living on the island.
WAt birth, Anastasia was assigned two house elves: Vikka and Tinky. She was raised by her mother, who gave her several lessons a day. Thus, Anastasia studied English, French, Russian, mathematics, history, geography, science, art, music and sports. She was gifted in all these subjects. Anyway, Anastasia's mother was quite strict and wanted her daughter to have an excellent level. When she was 6 years old, Anastasia's father started to give her chess lessons. She was very good at it too.
However, all family outings, evening stories, family games and great affection had to be forgotten. Since Anastasia didn't really have any friends - the only young person she met was her 15-year-old cousin - she found this perfectly normal.
To understand why the Varney couple raised their daughter in this way, you have to go back to the time of their youth. Anastasia's mother was also brought up like this and was perfectly successful in her studies and life. Anastasia's father had almost the same life, so for them it was the best thing for their only daughter.
When she received her letter from Hogwarts, Anastasia didn't know whether to be happy, reassured, sad or excited. It was at breakfast. She had always known that the world of magic existed. So she had chosen a dignified attitude, reading her letter in a calm voice. Even though inside she was both excited and scared. What if Hogwarts wasn't what she thought it was?
First Instance of Magic:
Little Anastasia is 5 years old. It is a Saturday afternoon. As usual, she is bored with her dolls. Sitting on the floor, on the carpet, with some dolls around her, she decides to "play tea party". She got up and picked up her dolls one by one. She placed them in a circle and called Vikka. To play tea party, you need tea.
━ Miss Anastasia, what can Vikka do for you?
━ Fetch me some cups and a teapot. Mother doesn't want me to use real tea so I'll pretend. Hurry up!
With a snap of her finger, Vikka brings out the silver and malachite tea set, elements associated with Anastasia's name. The little girl began to serve her dolls with feigned enthusiasm. It wasn't even fun to pretend to play! Anastasia had had enough. She wanted to do something else. Draw, read. But she wasn't allowed to. Between three and four o'clock, it was time to play with the dolls. She suddenly put the teapot on the floor and tiny flames appeared around it. Anastasia screamed and moved away.
Anastasia's scream had alerted her mother, who rushed to her daughter's room. Anastasia's mother saw the circle of dolls, then the tea set. Then she saw the teapot, surrounded by ever-growing flames. With a wave of her wand, Anastasia's mother extinguished the fire and congratulated her daughter. Anastasia couldn't understand why her mother looked so happy. She had ruined the carpet and nearly burned herself.
