Physical Description: Standing at just under 4 feet and 9 inches in height, Alora Shendrow has long natural blonde hair that she tends to straighten that flows elegantly just below her shoulders in length. With a pale palid complexion and bright eyes of sapphire hues, the young girl seems to be your everyday typical Irish girl.

Outside of the use of her house robes and mandatory outfits worn around the halls of Hogwarts, Alora enjoys wearing comfortable clothing and will usually be seen in leggings with a band t-shirt accompanied by her ankle-length boots when allowed to wear her own clothing showing a comfortable and practical dress sense. However, Inside the halls of Hogwarts during the school terms, Alora is usually seen with her long blonde hair tied up into some style of either bun or plait whilst wearing her usual school uniform and school shoes.

When it comes to noticeable features that may be slightly different to those around her, during the summer months the medium-sized scar on Alora's upper right arm becomes more defined and prominent which is the result of her falling from a tree when she was a young child to which she would severely break her arm and have to undergo an operation to reset it correctly into place. However, she mainly has this covered when possible out of ease to limit unnecessary distractions of others around her who may have not seen scarring before.

Mental Description: Like most children of her age, Alora is fairly excitable and happy in her life especially now that she is surrounded by new experiences within the world around her causing a surreal fascination with the world around her. Wanting to make the most out of discovering what this new world holds around her the young girl appears outwardly to be fearless, witty and intelligent with the focus she has on discovering new aspects which can also cause her to be distracted at times.

Alora also enjoys meeting new people hoping to make lasting connections and friendships to last throughout the years to come. To the outside world, the young blonde may seem like an eager and polite individual who aspires to help all around her in any way that she can. A little chatty at times sadly the young girl doesn't really understand boundaries all that well at present but hopes to learn over the years and means no harm to anyone. With also being a muggle-born and new to the world of witchcraft and wizardry her knowledge of the new world is limited which also causes her to want to learn about the experiences of others around her who have lived in this world throughout their lives to learn their differences respectfully.

However, in her spare time, she will often be seen curled up with a blanket over her knees reading a book. With a passion for reading and learning Alora spends all the time free that she has attempting new things within reason hoping to better herself to become a master of all traits whilst trying to find her path in life along the way to discover who she is truly meant to be. Due to this, the young girl can get lost in her own thoughts which may in tow cause her to become startled easily when approached without noticing.

With this newfound obsession in her life, sadly Alora seems to be extremely stubborn and struggles to admit when they are in the wrong due to trying to fit in with the world around her. But this also causes her to be extremely loyal to those she classes as her friends as well as her family as well showing a lot of respect and care for each of them. When it comes to school life, Alora is a little bit of an overachiever who loves school and structure within her daily life and rarely brags about herself due to this meaning she is also rather modest.

Biography: Born on May 23rd, 2011 to Lora and Leith Shendrow, Alora is one of four children and the middle child of the family. With two twin older siblings Lora and Leith Junior and a younger sister called Loralei, the young blonde always seemed to be a little different from the rest of her siblings.

Raised in the rural outskirts of Galway, Ireland the Shendrow family worked hard for their community providing farming produce to the local area and that was no different for Alora. Starting Public school at the age of just six years of age her days were spent studying before she would return home to work on chores of helping to upkeep a farm all until she reached the tender age of 10.

Finishing her final days of primary school, Alora was deep in preparation for the transition to senior school when she would unexpectedly receive an envelope addressed to her in the post. Opening the letter, both Alora and her family would learn the truth of the matter that Alora was in fact what was known as a muggle-born witch and invited to attend a prestigious wizarding school the upcoming fall where the next chapter of her life would surely begin.

After discussions and agreements between the young girl and her parents they would venture to Diagon Alley to buy the necessary supplies for the first year of study to be completed at Hogwarts before saying a brief goodbye on September 1st when she would board the Hogwarts Express on Platform 9 3/4 in Kings Cross Station, her new life beginning.

First Instance of Magic: Alora's first instance of magic occurred when the young blonde was just 10 years old. A little stressed out due to the upcoming exams of entry to join the senior school of her desire at the time the young girl would spend most of her free time revising and studying. With the next exam being historical in nature frustrations would begin to build inside the young girl after she struggled to find the correct section of her school book on the topic in question.

Slamming her hands down on her small make-shift desk to let out some frustrations suddenly the pages of the book would begin to flip on their own to the correct location. Originally thinking it was just a gust of strong wind through the window, the young blonde would later speak with her older brother about what had happened which much to her horror revealed how there had been no wind throughout the evening.

Clearly concerned and frightened by what had occurred Alora would break down into tears confused about how the events had happened to which her parents and the rest of the family would assume that the stress had caused her to imagine the pages flickering in front of her or at least for it to have some local information. That was until she would receive her letter of Invitation to Hogwarts, releasing the truth the family are still trying to come to terms with their newfound knowledge but hold sincere support for their unique daughter.
