⭑~~❀~~⭑ APPEARANCE Reducio Miharu is a girl with fair skin, perhaps a bit paler than usual for she mostly spends her time inside their home unless she is practicing for broom riding, has long black hair that she would often wear down and at times, worn in a ponytail and a pair of black colored eyes.

⭑~~❀~~⭑ PERSONALITY Reducio As a sheltered child who only knows studying and broom riding at a young age, Miharu rarely has enough time for fun activities, making her rather serious. One could describe that she always has that bored look in her black eyes that almost look like they are glaring, making it difficult for anyone to approach her. She rarely smiles which makes it worthwhile if someone manages to get into her good side. Haru is also quiet and could be seen as a loner. While she does longed for friendship, she had grown used to being alone most of the time so that it doesn't bother her anymore or just with her sibling. She's described as somewhat scary when she is serious or angry for her piercing glare and often holds a grudge on anyone who had wronged her. Haru avoids any conflicts, finding them troublesome. She won't start any fight but she will finish it. She has a sharp tongue and would often look down on others that are not from pureblood families, a habit that she hates, especially when she started attending Mahoutokoro, finding other people, no matter what their blood status is, interesting. She immediately feels guilt whenever she speaks ill of someone or makes any disrespectful remark about them as she is trying to move away from the view that her parents had engraved on her since she was young, always finding herself apologizing, something that she doesn't want her parents finding out.

HISTORY

Reducio

Miharu or Haru is raised within the manor of the Goto Family, an old pureblood wizarding family with known status in Kyoto, Japan. They are purists to the core, finding associating with people other than pureblood as a waste of time and energy and a disgrace to the family's name. Not only that, but they are known for their strictness, their desire to be on top no matter what it takes, even if it means stepping on people and failure isn't an option.

Haru is raised by both her parents. Goto Haruto, a well-known wizard from the Goto Family, is strict in his beliefs of purism and the one responsible for most of Haru's education before she began to attend Mahoutokoro. He engraved in her the views of their family where purebloods are supreme and those below them deserve only minimal respect and must strictly avoid associating with them. Goto Tokiwa (Koizumi Tokiwa before marriage), Haru's mother and an excellent Quidditch Player, helped in teaching Haru about Quidditch and riding a broom. Much like Haruto, she follows their purists' views and is just as strict as him when it comes to teaching. Her vision is to turn Haru into an excellent Quidditch player like herself to follow her footsteps. Haru's parents met in Kyoto where Haruto encountered Koizumi Tokiwa, a witch from the well-known pureblood family of Koizumi and sister of Kane Koizumi Vickers, making Haru and Naoki cousins.

Haru had followed what her parents wanted her to do in most of her childhood, spending most of it studying and practicing in the Goto Manor. She rarely does anything fun, finding those unnecessary although deep inside, she does want to experience a normal childhood but is just afraid of disappointing her parents.

Her first instance of accidental magic happened when she was around 6 years old. She was spending her time reading in their family's manor library when her cousins decided to play and run around. The more they made noises, the more she got annoyed at them. When they pulled the book that she was reading away from her, her anger reached its peak. In response to that anger, books began to fly off of their shelves, causing a commotion. Her father was home at the time, scolded her cousin for messing around in the library. He didn't make any remarks on Haru's magic for it'd be more surprising if she didn't show any sign of it.

Her education within the manor continued until she had received an invitation for Mahoutokoro's day class. Her parents decided to let her attend in order to learn more about magic and school settings are a good way to do so. Haru had a hard time in classes, not in terms of academics and magic but rather on the social aspect because of her habits that had developed due to how she was raised by her parents. She tends to throw insulting remarks without knowing it to people, especially once she knows of someone's blood status, something that she would regret later on and would feel a striking guilt. While her parents would be proud of her, she isn't. People are interesting no matter what their blood status are, even the non-magical folks and she had decided to change herself for the better even though her parents might be disappointed of her. It's a challenge that she's willing to take.

Miharu, despite not looking like it, is quite nimble and athletic. How? One might ask for this girl mostly spends her time within the library of the Goto Manor doing self-studies and reading, barely leaving the room unless it was necessary. She was never seen playing with other children, namely her cousins who are always seen running around. Miharu's type of fun is staying inside with a book in hand or in some rare times, looking out the window and watching whatever unfolds before her.

Perhaps it was because of her mother. She was known as an athletic woman during her time in school and even made it as part of her school's Quidditch team as a chaser. Well, it could be a factor but it was actually the fact that her mother had been trying to get her to follow her footsteps as a Quidditch player. At a young age, Haru was exposed to the said sport, often watching with her mother and father when a Quidditch match is up. While her father was interested in it, her mother was obsessed with it. It was what pushed her mother to try and get Haru into the sports and it was successful.

Haru didn't like Quidditch at first because her mother had simply forced it on her. Then again, they are a pureblood family and for some reason, broom riding is a must in their family. They do try to excel in a lot of things and Quidditch and broom riding aren't an exception. She insisted on teaching her and Haru eventually agreed. She was so bad at it at first, often falling off and barely moving but after a couple of tries, she was getting the hang of it and, as much as she doesn't want to admit it, despite being forced on her, Haru started liking broom riding. At that time, she had thought that maybe, she could give Quidditch a try. Her agility should be able to help her with that.

Under her mother's supervision, Haru continued her broom riding training. First off, simple movements, getting used to the speed and swerving left or right and then she moved in to evasive maneuvers once she had expressed her desire to try the sports once she is able to. While she focuses mostly on her flying in a broom, she trains her reaction time on land in a dodgeball game that her mother had introduced to her, finding it useful if she wanted to work on some evasive maneuvers. All she has to do then is apply it in broom riding. Before she even knew it, her movements and reaction had grown a lot thanks to those simple exercises and that had just made her mother proud, telling her that she could become a great Quidditch player.

Reducio

Days after days, Miharu never stopped her practices as she didn't want her skill getting dull by lack of exercises. Not to mention, her parents seem to have approved of her training even if they aren't there to supervise her. She is still keen on trying out Quidditch and once she gets into the team, she wants to be prepared for it, to be in excellent shape. After all, she is striving to be one of the best players that they'll have or else, her parents might be disappointed at her.

At school, she would continue to train herself in flying class, especially when she has some free time. She could always be seen with a broom which is quite surprising for those who don't know her that well for most of the time, she is seen as a bookworm who always has her nose stuck between the pages of the books. Who would've thought that she was that athletic and interested in broom riding and Quidditch. It was even more surprising if one would see her in action.

Her early education on broom riding had helped her a lot, giving her an advantage that made her excel in class. Flying a broom had become a second nature to her as shown with her impressive maneuvers in the air. She could do quick turns, avoid obstacles that may come her way to the point that some might say she is trying to show off when in reality, she wasn't. For others, her skills were already at the top but for Haru, it wasn't enough.

She wants to be able to move in the air with ease, develop her reaction time some more to the point that it'd be hard for people to hit her or catch her. Quidditch is a rough game and she is going for a position that people might target quite a lot, a seeker. She had seen some games where the seekers had been targeted by beaters with their bludgers. With no seeker on the other team, the golden snitch is as good as theirs. She wants to prevent that from happening and if she wants to stay in the air for a long time while still getting attacked, then she needs more skills in dodging, maybe becoming untouchable while in the air.

While it is quite an impossible feat to achieve, it is a great goal to strive. She might not be untouchable, but she would still be harder to target. Haru continues to work on her broom maneuvers as well as getting used to the speed of her broom. The faster she goes, the harder it is for anyone to hit her but she needs to keep herself steady in the air with great control, thus, the daily training in broom handling under her mother's supervision which proves to be a great help in achieving her goal as a great Quidditch player.
