𝙱𝚊𝚌𝚔𝚐𝚛𝚘𝚞𝚗𝚍: Reducio Born on December 12, 2013, in Indonesia, Blythe is a socially confident systems thinker who values order, skill, and balance (except at a personal level). She lived most of her childhood with her mother as her father remained in his hometown overseas. Her father, Aurelius Gallagher, is a wizard-born passionate about educating Blythe in wizardry and the magical Olympics, while her mother, Espen J. Gallagher, is an Indonesian Muggle who distrusts wizardry and magic. Blythe spent nine years in the green mountains of Puncak Bogor, Indonesia, before moving to Harlow, England, which is her father’s hometown. In Indonesia, Blythe lives with her mother and surrounds herself with the village kids, finding adventure and inspiration through fields of tea plantations and foggy forests. She excelled in a Muggle school, especially in certain subjects such as art, science, and physical education. Blythe developed an attraction to a particular chapter of her art subject, animation, which grew into a passion her mother supported. Since she is a creative person who spent more time with her mother, she used to doodle or daydream wherever she went. Cartoons were her most recent fascination with animations, she’d create small projects regarding cartoons and animations on her tablet and sometimes her mother’s computer for a more complex form. Certain moves she couldn't visualize were captured by her own as a video for reference. Projects stacked quickly, and she was soon certain she wanted a future in the entertainment industry. Blythe’s mother couldn't handle her daughter's first instance of magic, fearing the worst results when handling it herself. After a year or so, they came to the decision to immigrate to Harlow to involve the father. After moving to Harlow, she is surrounded by vast green fields that provide a healthy environment for her to grow. She often finds joy watching the clouds shift and running with her town friends. Harlow is beginning a stronger relationship with her father, as now she talks face-to-face rather than via video calls. Here, she develops her competitive nature as well as her athletic skills. With her father around, Blythe spends quality time with him by playing competitive sports. She was also familiarized with Quidditch, a magical sport her father specializes in. It interested Blythe to a point of want, not just a mere understanding, she wants to play. After she immigrated to Harlow, her parents may have had disagreements oftentimes, especially since she’s a child of two worlds. It was difficult for her to comprehend whose right and whose wrong, because in the end, every argument concludes with nothing. It leaves Blythe without answers, but it also taught her to be assertive and independent with her options.

𝙵.𝙸.𝙾.𝙼: Reducio Second grade, 8 years old, Blythe had a mathematics test. To her, math is an easy subject, if the question asks her to add numbers, then add, if the question asks her to subtract, then subtract. There is always a formula in math that’s easy to remember, addition, subtraction, measurements, data, and even simple geometry. Sure, it took her a long time to count, but she always understood the functions and processes for every question. Her overconfident character underestimated the subject’s difficulty, she didn't listen to class, didn't study, and didn't even bother to stay awake during instructions. Because of this, her result was below par, no amount of words could describe how ugly that score is. To add salt to her wound, her classmates took notice of her test paper and the score written on it in red ink. So, like any other person with a wounded ego, Blythe sat on her desk away from everyone. As she fumed in irritation, the paper had suddenly caught fire without a particular reason, and the moment her classmates noticed and screamed, the fire sprinkler went off. With everyone in class drenched and the teacher shocked, Blythe made up a story that she was using a magnifying glass to jokingly burn an ant on her paper with the sun ray that bled through the windows, which caused the fire. The conveniently placed seating arrangement covers that.

𝙼𝚎𝚗𝚝𝚊𝚕 𝙳𝚎𝚜𝚌𝚛𝚒𝚙𝚝𝚒𝚘𝚗: Reducio Blythe is an experimental, curious person who is willing to try or challenge anything or anyone (even if she ends up dumped most of the time). She is loud yet friendly, chaotic yet somehow analytical. However, this doesn’t make her incapable of taking things seriously, as she can become declarative and somewhat aggressive under stress. This can make her distant and wary of others, and if it’s personal, she’s a potential foe. Fortunately, she tries her best not to lose her self-control and keep her composure. Blythe also takes pleasure in leading others and being seen as a dependable person, though this is taken for granted because the young one prefers to use this skill for mischief and personal advantage. In addition, Blythe is flexible and is quick to adjust in situations. She isn’t afraid of calling someone out, but it’s rarely anything personal.

𝙿𝚑𝚢𝚜𝚒𝚌𝚊𝚕 𝙳𝚎𝚜𝚌𝚛𝚒𝚙𝚝𝚒𝚘𝚗: Reducio Blythe stands at 4’10" at age 11, with a fit and healthy figure. Dark grey hair with a few white strands from poliosis, she prefers to keep her hair shorter than shoulder length. She’s tan with baby blue eyes, a slight sideburn near her ears, and significantly sharper teeth. Additionally, she has wound beaks and scars, the most notable of which is a large, ugly scar on her left arm, located on her elbow. Note that all the wounds are kept by choice, to her, they are reminders of what she has been through and achieved. Lists of notable wound beaks and scars: - A healed wound on her right knee from a soccer game. - A healed wound on her left, lower elbow from tripping during a baseball match. - A previous broken bone and a scar on her left elbow from an extreme attempt to save a soccer match. - A wound on her left cheek from tipping over while running.
