They have thick chin length black wavy hair that leans more towards curly. Ophelia usually wears their hair in a short ponytail or two French braids. They have brown eyes and a pale complexion. The have a triangular body shape with wide shoulders and a small chest. They usually wears baggy cargo pants, a black belt, a tan button up (usually undone revealing a black sports bra) and black knock off doc Martin’s (hand me downs).

Ophelia is a bit rough around the edges, a product of their harsh childhood. They tend to pick fights and cause problems however it’s more a coping mechanism than anything else. When they were little the only way they could be noticed is when they acted out, and as someone who fears obscurity, Ophelia tends to want to be noticed. The might seem rude, and at times the can be, but Ophelia is fiercely protective of those they care about and once you befriend them they would do anything for you.

Ophelia grew up the fifth child in a twelve child family. Because of that, they tended to not be noticed by their parents or peers. Their pure blood parents were desperate to keep the family line from dying out, which is why they had so many children. They often acted out as a child, because their parents were always so busy with new kids that was the only time they’d pay attention to them. That’s not to say they were abusive or neglecting, just busy.

Ophelia’s first incident of accidental magic was when they were six years old, a bit late for her family. It was a family dinner, and they were trying to talk to her parents but they were so overwhelmed by the new baby they couldn’t even hear Ophelia calling them. In a fit of rage, six year old Ophelia stood up on the table and screamed. As they yelled, every cup and plate on the table levitated a few centimetres off the ground and then dropped and shattered.
