Cosima, derived from the greek word Kosmas, is a name most often associated with beauty, symmetry, and quiet harmony. Chosen deliberately to mirror her brother Isato’s name, which means peace, some might argue it's an unfortunate choice of a name. From an early age, Cosima seemed to have a talent for disruption- subtle, deliberate, and entirely on her own. The universe, after all, only stays harmonious when something isn’t tugging at its seams, and Cosima has always preferred to pull.

Nao (なお), is a name inherited rather than chosen, drawn from her father’s mother. She had raised him alone after her husband passed, defying the tradition of remarrying, and Kaito's high position in the British Ministry serving as concrete evidence of her success. In Japanese, Nao means honest and sincere, which Cosima takes often too literally; her sharp tongue often striking long before the gears in her head finish turning

The Aurebachs are a long line of German pure-bloods residing in southeast England, with direct descendants of Wilhelmina and Ansel Aurebach residing specifically in Sevenoaks, Kent. While original family members were Durmstrang alumni, most Aurebachs have attended Hogwarts since their initial immigration in the 1600s. The decision to keep Ronja’s maiden name hyphenated serves as a deliberate marker of prominence, ensuring the family name remains visible among the newest generation.

Iori (いおり) is a traditional Japanese surname meaning hearth and refuge. Her father's family had been small and unassuming, however strongly rooted in the belief that togetherness, home, and love were far greater measures of worth than recognition or prestige. Although lacking the recognition and grandiose significance of her mother's maiden name, Cosima especially carries her father's surname proudly and unapologetically.

Physical Description: Standing at around 4'7" (144 cm), Cosima is average height for an 11-year old girl. Her legs do seem to be taking up the majority of her body, implying a lanky slim figure as she will continue to grow. Her eyes are a pale grey- from her mother- while warm, golden skin was a feature from her father. Her hair is honey blonde and long, and compliments her round face, slim nose, and thin lips. She has both her ears pierced and often wears small silver studs given to her by her mother.

Mental Description: Cosima does not exhibit the stereotypical traits one might assume a daughter of magical high society might have. This is most likely due to her overall lack of effort in everything. It doesn't matter if it's studying for classes, mastering a new spell, or even trying simple etiquette, she consistently scores at most average, but usually poorly. Perhaps having people underestimate her is all a part of her tactic, or more likely, she doesn't care.

Her one strength might just be that she constantly keeps talking, although her words might not necessarily carry any meeting. While she can come off as judgy and perhaps a little cold, she can keep a conversation going; a good skill when dealing with new, frightened students. Then again, when talking to people she considers useful, her cool demeanor can turn charming, even flirtatious.

Cosima can be selfish- putting effort into tasks and activities only if they benefit her in some way. She isn't afraid to use others to achieve her end goal, on the rare occasion she does have one, leading her to have a questionable reputation regarding her loyalty amongst other students at Hogwarts.

She isn't necessarily a friend to all, nor is she an enemy. She minds her business and tends to focus on her own thing, and as long as you leave her alone she most likely will return the favor.

History: Cosima Nao Auerbach-Iori is a pure-blood witch born to Kaito Iori, Mahotoukoro graduate and Japanese delegate in the International Confederation of Wizards, and Ronja Auerbach, a German-English socialite.

Kaito had been raised in Nagoya, Japan, throughout all of his childhood. Born in a small and humble pure-blood household, his father had passed unexpectedly when he was 6. His mother, Nao, took it upon herself to never remarry and place high emphasis on her son's education. Graduating from the top of his class at Mahotoukoro, his interests heavily lied within politics and international relations. He relocated to the United Kingdom after landing a position at the British Ministry of Magic, working his way up to his current role as the Japanese delegate in the International Confederation of Wizards.

Ronja had an easier upbringing. As a member of traditional wizarding high-society, there was emphasis on getting an education at Hogwarts, however, with much less pressure compared to many of her peers. While her classmates often saw her as privileged and shallow, Ronja quietly cultivated a genuine curiosity about the wizarding world beyond the United Kingdom.

When Kaito and Ronja first crossed paths at an international wizarding summit in France, their contrasting backgrounds and desire to travel resulted in an immediate connection. The two married shortly after, with the Aurebach's approving of Kaito due to his newly appointed role.

Cosima has one older brother, Isato, who is currently a fourth-year Gryffindor at Hogwarts, and the family's owl named Squash back home.

When not at the Auerbach manor in Sevenoaks, England, Cosima and Isato spent their summers in Japan with Kaito's parents. The two were tutored from a very young age, although many quit shortly after they took on Cosima as a protégé.

To say the least, Cosima is not looking forward to the next seven years at Hogwarts. From being served everything on a (literal) silver platter endless school terms in a drafty old castle, often too cold to sleep and definitely no Butterbeer to cozy up with. On top of that, she has a hard time understanding how Hogwarts is supposed to prepare her for the real world when everything is contained safely in the castle, resulting in her generally poor performance on exams.

First Instance of Magic: At her brother's eleventh birthday, between the attention he was receiving for another year around the sun combined with the arrival of his Hogwarts letter, to say that Cosi had been furious was an understatement. Although she wasn't necessarily an attention seeker, she had gotten dismissed earlier by her favorite cousins who were visiting to celebrate. She had a hard time comprehending why the focus wasn't on her, and rather her brother whom at the time, she wasn't too fond of. As everyone gathered around for Isato to blow out his candles, there was a loud pop! One of the surrounding balloons had snapped into a thousand tiny pieces of latex. Shortly after, another pop! One by one, the batch of three balloons framing the birthday boy's special moment snapped quickly, as wet tears silently rolled down Cosima's face.
