Appearance
Alix's verdant green eyes are her most striking feature at first glance. After noticing them, most people usually notice the freckles on her cheeks or her messy, neck-length red hair.
She isn't a tall girl. She stands on the shorter side of average. Her build is small and lacking much in the way of muscles. Despite her lack of extra height, her posture is usually quite hunched. It's as if she's trying to make herself even smaller.
Her clothes are perfect - not a wrinkle in place. Alix takes great care in making sure of that. She prefers simple jumpers and jeans, but she is known to wear the occasional sundress or t-shirt should the weather permit it. She always wears clothing with sleeves, though, to hide the nasty scar on her shoulder.

Personality
Alix is reserved. Many who see her might think this is a sign of simple shyness, but the truth is that Alix is paranoid about others finding out about the scar on her shoulder from the werewolf bite when she was nine. Even those who have no reason to know fill the girl with anxiety. 'What if they can tell? Do I look different? They know. Oh, God, they know.'
Before the injury, however, she was a lot more outgoing. A lot more confident in herself. She didn't second guess her own words and actions nearly as much as she does now.
She loves reading. Before going to Hogwarts, she had quite the embarrassing AO3 account, but she does enjoy the traditional medium of a hardcover book, leaning toward mystery novels and fantasy. When at home, she usually remains cooped up with a book or her phone in a dark bedroom.

History/Background Story:
Alix was born in a muggle hospital at her mum’s insistence. Her mum was a muggle pharmacist. Her dad was a potioneer. It was truly a match made in Heaven, with her mum offering a perspective on potion making that Alix’s dad might’nt have considered. Likewise, the procurement of ingredients for potion making gave Alix’s mum a broader understanding of pharmacology.
Alix was never lonely. She has several siblings. The eldest are her two older brothers - both Squibs - called Rickie and Alex. Despite being a muggle, Alex often pesters their father for wizarding lore and history, while Rickie's focus is mostly on sports.
Alix's older sister, Elisabeth, isn't a Squib. She is a proud member of Slytherin, enjoying her final fun year of Hogwarts, since next year she has to prepare for her O.W.Ls.
And, of course, who could forget the twins, Mary and Mark? Neither have shown any sign of magic, but they're only four. They never leave each others' side, and they possess a fondness for finishing each other's sentences to see the reactions of people around them.
Alix attended a very prestigious private school during her time before Hogwarts. Her mum insisted on it, since, to this day, she questions the education of Hogwarts students. Elisabeth is very brilliant, and both of her parents are proud of her, but her education of all things muggle is noticeably lacking. Eleanor thought to rectify that with the younger children by providing the best education she could before they potentially attended Hogwarts.

First instance of magic:
Alix's first instance of magic was likely a common one amongst children.
The young firecracker, having not been attacked yet, had tried to do magic for her whole young life. Her dad kept his spare wand just out of reach for the five-year-old Alix - high atop a cupboard in the kitchen. He didn't always keep it there, but younger Alix kept 'borrowing' it to try to do magic herself. It never worked, of course, but it was risky enough that he had to keep it out of her reach.
One day, Alix found out where it was. In what the small child thought was a stroke of genius, Alix climbed atop the kitchen counter. Then atop the refrigerator. Then atop the cupboard. She grabbed the wand, but without both hands to keep her balance, she fell from the cupboard. The wand fell from her hand, clattering on the kitchen floor long before Alix. As she fell, a sense of weightlessness overcame her. When she looked down, she was hovering inches from the floor.
Then she dropped the rest of the way. Between the tiny drop and her own tears, five-year-old Alix forgot all about her accidental little show of magic. Her mum put two and two together when she found the crying child, remarkably uninjured considering the height of the fall. Mum and dad had a long talk that night, and the family invested in a safe for the spare wand.
