Being on the shyer side of introversion, Patricia is habitually reserved and distant amid social places or situations. Because of this, she is often mistaken as being cold and obnoxious - her resting facial expression rarely accurately conveys internal thoughts or feelings, which wouldn’t necessarily be a problem if she wasn’t usually lost in her head and unaware of her surroundings. It’s only really during class or interaction with others that her expression changes, with the exception of startling occurrences. Despite this, if you look her in the eyes you might be able to notice things you wouldn’t be able to decipher from other parts of her face.
In other words, if you converse with her, she’s surprisingly warm and friendly. Her social battery just runs dry quite quickly and takes a while to fill again.
Excluding socialising in packed, unfamiliar public places for long periods of time, she’s exceptionally adaptable. She’s generally entirely open to new ideas and concepts, analysing them in depth before conclusion. Patricia has the intense ability to focus and block out distractions or unnecessary thoughts, which allows her to solve problems both quickly and efficiently. Very few things can break her focus.
She is quite creative and enjoys considering abstract theories, whilst simultaneously being scarily realistic and pessimistic. She doesn’t speak unless spoken to, and opts to listen over talk in most conversations.
Patricia is overly wary when it comes to others, internally hyper-analysing every little thing, word, twitch or slight change in expression or countenance. She’s paranoid, though never outwardly expressing it.
Although her expression rarely changes (as said earlier on), she struggles to physically mask her emotions if something has deeply effected her over a long period of time (e.g. trauma). She’s carful with her words despite this, and can usually stop herself from verbally bursting out in advance, generally in touch with and constantly regulating her feelings.
Biography:
Patricia was born on 13th of November to Sebastian and Pricilla Holmes, both of whom were members of a wealthy Pureblood family. She is their only child.
Her parents, being quite intelligent (perhaps of the genius level) people, were thoroughly invested in her education. She received round-the-clock tutoring from individuals who were considered to be ‘the best’ in the academic field; piles of work and books were a constant in her life, a result of her tutors’ rather strict and rigorous opinions regarding—what they believed to be—the correct method of study. This caused her to greatly excel intellectually, perhaps to a point beyond the norm of her age group at the time.
Though she initially detested it, Patricia grew to love studying. It became almost like a hobby: she is seldom without a book tucked under her arm.
First Instance of Magic:
Patricia, nine years old, became frustrated with a piece of work one of her tutors had assigned her. This frustration bubbled into anger which resulted in her tutor’s hair colour transforming from a dusty brown to a bright red.
