Physical Description: A tad tall for her age, Mafalda stands at around 4'11" inches (150 cm) and has a lean and agile build. Her eyes are a soft brown color that house a curious and thoughtful expression that seems beyond her years. The girl's fair skin has a natural glow that is often adorned with freckles across her cheeks and nose, adding to her youthful appearance. Her hair is dark brown and long, naturally falling in loose waves that frame her face. Mafalda's clothing is a mix between practicality and style, often opting to wear something that allows her to move freely while also expressing her individuality.

Mental Description: The young witch is riddled with a constant flow of thoughts and ideas, always seeking to explore and learn something new. Her restless mind clings to any new thing that sparks her interest. Mafalda's boundless curiosity and thirst for knowledge have earned her a reputation as the resident "know-it-all" in her classes, but this doesn't deter her from constantly seeking out new information.

While Mafalda's wit and youthful energy often make her a joy to be around, she can be unreliable at times, and her irascible nature can make her difficult to deal with. Procrastination is another weakness she has yet to overcome, often leading her to scramble at the last minute to complete her assignments or meet her commitments. This is most present when she deems something uninteresting, which often leaves her with a pile of work that can become overwhelming.

Beneath her occasional flaws, the girl's helpful and good-natured character shines through. She is always ready to help someone, be it a close family member or just a schoolmate. Her aspirational mindset often leads her to set high goals for herself, which she tries, to the best of her ability, to achieve. However, this also means that she can be quite hard on herself, which often leads to her falling short of her expectations.

Biography: Born under a waning Moon on a warm summer day, Mafalda came into this world as a curious and observant bundle of joy. Her mother, a kind-hearted witch, raised her with love and tenderness, always encouraging her daughter's thirst for knowledge and exploration. Her father, a muggle, left when she was just a baby, leaving behind a trail of questions and confusion, though her mother made sure the girl didn't feel the feelings of loss too strongly.

They lived in the outskirts of Norwich in a quaint cottage home, where they were far enough not to be affected by the hustle and bustle of the city but close enough to enjoy its benefits. Mafalda's mother worked from home, tending to her garden of magical plants and ensuring her job as a herbologist, while also taking care of her daughter's education.

Growing up, Mafalda enjoyed the amenities of the wizarding world, getting to know very little of the muggle one, despite her half-blood status. More often than not, she would sneak out of her home to explore the surrounding woodlands and fields, always seeking out something new to learn about. Once she reached her eleventh birthday, Mafalda was accepted into Hogwarts School of Witchcraft and Wizardry, where her magical education would truly flourish.

First Instance of Magic: Her first instance of magic was when she was only four years old. She was playing in the garden with her mother who was showing her a variety of colorful flowers. The young Mafalda was fascinated by them and once she reached out to touch one, it grew to an enormous size unexpectedly. Mafalda's mother was startled but managed to quickly contain the situation by performing a simple shrinking spell to bring the flower back to its original size.
