Physical Description:
Delphinus is a pure-blood witch with long, wavy blond hair and greyish-green eyes. She has a pale complexion and a small mole under the tail of her right eye. When not wearing her school uniform, she likes to dress in Dark Academia outfits, always with her family brooch, a ring with a "D" engraving, and a necklace she sometimes wears for luck.
Mental Description:
Delphinus is often seen as aloof and posh, classic of her upbringing. When she’s in a bad mood, she can come off as even more distant. Those who know her better might say she’s sometimes lazy. But when she’s working on her research, she’s completely focused and efficient.
If Xander is around, you can expect the two to bicker, showing a more lively side of Delphinus. Her memory is excellent, helping her in both her studies and when seeking vengeance. Even though she seems aloof, Delphinus sometimes feels lonely and gets lost in her thoughts, which can make her melancholy. She tends to overthink things, leading to dark moments that even her closest friends might not see. Only Xander can sometimes sense when something is wrong and knows where to find her before she completely shuts down.
Biography:
Delphinus comes from a wealthy, pure-blood family with a lot of power and secrets that most of the Wizarding World doesn’t know. Still, the wealth visible to the public is enough to gain respect and fear. Due to her family’s skepticism towards general education, Delphinus received her early education in a private academy co-founded by other pure-blood families.
Her father, Elio, is the head of the house and a businessman with influence in the Ministry. Her mother, Elara, follows her artistic passions with the support of both her husband and her maiden family. Delphinus’s older brother, Albert, works abroad and is rarely home, but the siblings share a deep bond and care for each other greatly.
Delphinus is close with Xander Kensington and Sylvana Viotto, who are from families of similar status. Xander is witty and questions the norm, which leads to playful arguments with Delphinus. Sylvana is fashionable and can be arrogant, but she’s loyal to Delphinus and has the strongest dislike of Muggle-borns among the three.
First Instance of Magic:
Delphinus experienced her first instance of accidental magic shortly after her fifth birthday. Raised to be polite and graceful, moments of uncontrolled behavior were unusual for her. One afternoon, while Albert was home, the two were drawing together. Delphinus completed a piece she was proud of, and Albert enhanced it with a touch of magical shimmer. Inspired, Delphinus wanted to try, even though she didn’t yet know how.
While she was focusing, Xander burst into the gallery, eager to showcase his new toy broomstick. Unfortunately, however, the young gentleman did not have the most grace coming in and effectively destroyed Delphinus's hard work by skidding to a stop, failing, tripping over paint and paintbrush, and sending all of that right over to the painting. Delphinus, furious, lost control and accidentally sent Xander flying out into the garden, landing him in the rose bed that had inspired her painting. Albert was frozen in shock, only coming back to his senses after Xander flew past, surprised by Delphinus’s unexpected magic.
