General
She takes some time to warm up to people, but if someone approaches her she wouldn't say no to a conversation. She will definitely seem very skittish in the beginning. As long as you don’t get in her personal space or yell you should be fine. She likes making friends, however, she has serious trust issues. That being said, she adores loyalty, and once she takes you on as your friend, she will be there for you.

Anger
There can be a few things that happen if she gets angry. She normally only gets angry at anything that isn’t fair, or if someone if being mean or harming someone or something she cares about. Depending on the situation, here are a few different ways she could react. Astrid has been known to use the silent treatment to her advantage. She is good at pretending people aren’t there. Of course, she only does these things if the person they are towards get very much under her skin. Another form of this is when she lashes out. Normally when this happens she says a few choice words in a seething tone and will most likely walk away. She also isn’t afraid to tell on you if you’re too bad, so watch out.

Sadness
Linking with her weaknesses and her depression, more about that below, she isolates herself when she gets sad. At times like these, she feels the most annoying, so it is most likely that you will have to go up to her first. There are some days where she is just very sad, and little things might make her cry. She doesn’t like crying in front of others, and if she can abscond she will. If she can’t she will try her best to hide her face or she won’t look at anyone in the face until she feels like she looks better.

Happiness
She is happiest when she is either with people she cares about, doing one of her many hobbies, or is eating. Sometimes while she eats she will close her eyes and rock side to side slightly. It's just a habit of hers. Most of the time she doesn’t notice she’s doing it. She also feels more joy when she is simply content. Overthinking takes a toll on your mind, and Astrid appreciates moments of peace.

How Anxiety & Depression Effects Astrid
Her anxiety causes her to overthink, in an almost OCD way. She had gotten to a point where she can focus on other things to help her not overthink as much. It's harder when she tries to sleep. This causes her to need more sleep since her body never fully relaxes due to stress most of the time. She had tried actual medication from the Muggle world, but it didn’t work much for her. She supposed she had a high tolerance. Her depression has been something, like her anxiety, that she has had her entire life. This also doesn’t help with her sleep, since when she feels most unmotivated is when she isolates herself and just sleeps. Sometimes when she feels too much happiness she will cry, and it can turn into a sad cry very suddenly if its the right conditions. She thinks that it all stems from the abuse her father had put her through and the abuse she witnessed her father direct towards her mother. She had decided right before she got to Hogwarts that she would look more into self help, and maybe even find a friend or a professor that could help her along the way.



Mother: Iris Everly (Ravenclaw)
Father: Han Everly (Gryffondor)

Ages 0-7
Astrid was born in Cardiff, Wales, UK. She could never remember a time when her parents were ever happy together. Her father was always the antagonist in any situation. Being a drunk and a cheat, he wasn’t someone many people held much true respect for. Not to mention he was Muggle-Racist, so there’s that. Han would abuse Astrid with absolute neglect or snarky, harmful comments that would make Astrid feel unwanted, hurt, stupid, and worthless. Her mother would always take up for her daughter, but most of the time would lose. At a breaking point, Iris had enough and didn’t back down from her daughters side. Things got physical, and Han had pulled his wand. Iris ‘backed off’ into another room with Astrid, but knew that this was it. Once Han fell asleep, Astrid’s mother packed up as much as she needed for her and Astrid, took all of her savings she had been hiding from Han, and left.

During this time, Astrid had shown her magical abilities. How she found she was magical? Well, her mother was happy to walk in on Astrid as she was playing with her toys when she was very young, around 3-4 years old. Two of her stuffed animals were flying two feet from the ground as she held a third. In Astrid's mind, she has always been magical, and always works on ways to become more magical. Iris tried to tell Han, but he didn’t seem to care.

Ages 8-11
Iris took Astrid to the Muggle world to hide from Han. There she decided to have Astrid go to a Muggle school. During this time Astrid learned a lot about Muggles, and even appreciated them in a way. She found a lot of Muggle things that she liked to do, and due to the fact that they were trying to keep Han away from them they didn’t like to use a lot of magical things. Astrid also found the Pagan religion in these years, and it pretty much instantly became a part of her life. She began practicing a more mundane form of magick, which she spelled differently so she would be able to tell the difference in her journals and grimoires.

Of course she received her letter from Hogwarts, and she wasn’t mad, but she was afraid. She had just started making more friends than the one she made when she had first started the Muggle school. And so she had to try and prepare herself for her new, yet slightly familiar life.
