Physical Description: Eleanore is about 4'7" and of average stature. Her copper hair falls to her mid-back, and is remarkably straight and tidy. She likes to pull it into braids, and often experiments with complex ways to keep it out of her face. Grey eyes peer out from her rather narrow face - her high cheekbones lend to a haughty expression. She has a fair complexion that flushes quickly and intensely.

Mental Description: Eleanore tends towards the melodramatic in every aspect of her life, whether through long-winded letters or detailed retellings of gossip that may or may not be accurate. Her tendency towards gossip and idle chatter tends to mask her true beliefs, however, as she is extremely devoted to her friends and family, and a reliable confidante - she has been known to start rumors to overshadow gossip about her close companions. She is flighty and a bit aloof, but she has an excellent capacity for comforting those around her. Her shoulder is always free to cry on, and she often provides wisdom beyond her years, whether to friends or strangers. Her manners are immaculate due to her upbringing, and she can always be relied upon to provide advice on what flowers to send to a sick relative or what sort of parchment would be most appropriate for an invitation.

Biography: Born into a wizarding family, Eleanore is no stranger to magic. The Striker family is of relative affluence, with her father commuting to the Mysteries Department at the Ministry while her mother wrote a popular self-help column in their local wizarding paper. She had an idyllic childhood in the countryside, where they frequently hosted parties and events for their neighbors. Before leaving for Hogwarts, Eleanore could often be found assisting her mother with the planning of such events, and catching up with the latest town gossip through tea parties and eavesdropping.

First Instance of Magic: At the age of four, Eleanore blew up a dish of shepherd's pie in a bout of defiance at her family home.
