basics
appearance
ReducioTwyla stands at around 4,9", and is quite slim, definitely possessing a model's build. She has light brown skin, her eyes are a deep brown and mono-lidded, courtesy of her mother, and she has a rounded face, button nose and plump lips.
Her natural hair is a dark brown and the texture of 3C, meaning that her hair is extremely curly and voluminous, and it pillows around her head quite spectacularly. Twyla usually wears her hair like this naturally, but she also enjoys wearing her hair in many different protective styles, such as box braids, and some photoshoots and modelling gigs require her to straighten her hair, therefore she sometimes has her hair styled in this way.
Due to her upbringing, Twyla has a very expensive fashion style, constantly wearing different styles, colours, fabrics, luxury wizarding designers, and is not one to repeat an outfit. She is quite easily defined as feminine, and has an affinity towards fitted clothes such as skirts, dresses or the odd designer leisure-set. In addition to this, most of her (rather large) wardrobe contains items that she is gifted due to both her and her family's status, and Twyla will go out of her way to explain in great detail the brand/designer and how she was gifted it.
personality
ReducioTwyla cannot be described as someone who is selfless, but instead is quite self-centred, shallow and sheltered. Her entire life is centred around her career and her fame, and she always feels that she needs to be in the spotlight. She can also be quite friendly, and she loves having a group of friends around her that she can feel at home with, and she loved being around people, mostly because she enjoys having people recognise her.
However, deep down, Twyla knows that, whatever she does, she can never live up to her cousin, Ayla, (permission from ayla's writer (ivy) to include this) who seems to get everything Twyla gets and always excels over her, and wishes that she could just prove that she can be as good as Ayla. This constant one-sided race with her cousin makes Twyla insecure and self-conscious, and she's began questioning why she's not good enough.

early days of dae min-ji
Reducio
In 1987, Dae Min-Ji is born in Busan, South Korea to Dae Soojin, a Korean pure-blood witch, and Jack Whittaker, an English pure-blood wizard, and spends her early childhood living on the beaches of Marine City. At the age of 5, she is introduced to a wizarding modelling agency through a friend of a friend of her parents and, with their undying yearning and support, starts to take child modelling gigs in Busan and Seoul.
Just as soon as she begins to climb the ranks a few years later, at age 8, an uneasy realisation forms to the Dae family: Min-Ji hasn't had a first instance of magic yet. In fact, she hasn't shown any magic at all. Terrified that their only daughter may be a Squib, Soojin and Jack quickly ship their daughter to England, over to Jack's parents, in an attempt to hide their seemingly failed offspring. In their haste, they forget to let both their daughter and her grandparents know what's happening, and it only dawns on them both when Min-Ji is standing on their steps, clutching her suitcases, a look of despair on her face.
However, despite how hard the first month was, the change of environment turned out to have been good, as three months into living with her grandparents in Outer London, Min-Ji accidentally performed magic, proving herself to have just been a late bloomer. After this, the girl decides to permanently stay in England, refusing to return back to her parents with her newly found magic, and instead obtains her citizenship within the country, has her grandparents become her legal guardians, and changes her name to Melissa Whittaker, taking her grandparent's last name and switching her first name to one that she thought that the English agencies would like more, as she convinces her grandparents to let her continue her modelling in England.

the life of melissa whittaker
Reducio
When Melissa turns 11, she gets her letter from Hogwarts, and leaves the limelight temporarily in order for her to get her wizarding education.
(permission from ayla's writer) On her first day, Melissa meets another first year called Elizabeth Flores, and the two hit it off instantly and become best friends. Their favourite class by a mile is Muggle Studies, and the two become obsessed with the muggle culture, and seem to be unusally dedicated. During their time at Hogwarts, Elizabeth introduces Melissa to her twin brother, Theo, and the two hit it off right away, and begin to date.
As soon as Melissa and Elizabeth graduate, they decide to take a gap year in the muggle world, experiencing pure euphoria exploring and learning everything they can about how the muggles lived. Whilst giggling around a shopping centre in London, the two women are stopped by a modelling agency, and asked to apply. They do, and land cushy muggle modelling jobs to fund the rest of their excursion.
At the end of their gap year, Melissa decides to keep her job in the muggle world on the backburner for a while whilst she gets reacquainted with the wizarding world, and gets a good contract modelling for Witch Weekly and other wizarding magazines.
In 2008, Melissa and Theo get married in a staggering wedding that earns a multiple page spread in Witch Weekly, and, as it is common practise within the Flores family to keep their surname regardless of which gender they marry, their names stay the same.

biography
the early days of twyla whittaker-flores
Reducio
And then, on the eve of Christmas Eve, December 23rd 2011, Twyla Eun-Hye Julie Rose Whittaker-Flores is born in a private room in a London hospital to, you guessed it, yet another Witch Weekly spread, due to her mother being promoted to a senior role in management, and writing her own section of the magazine, mostly centred around lifestyle and wellbeing. After Twyla's birth, Melissa and Theo decide to sell their current London penthouse and move into a mansion in Windsor, Berkshire.
The first few years of Twyla's life were spent in heavenly bliss, and was treated like royalty as a baby, with countless amounts of presents, toys and accessories to fill at least two of her playrooms, and a variety of staff to keep her busy whilst her parents were... also busy. The girl was never exactly outspoken in her early youth, but where she lacked this frankness she made up for in entitlement, developing the sense of 'more' prematurely into her childhood, always micro-managing her staff even as a toddler, as apparently nobody could do things how she wanted them to do it.
It was only before long that the modelling gigs would start to flood in, her mother's muggle way 'in' and wizarding reputation fuelling Twyla's early career, boosting her minuscule fame just like her mother, as she starts to model for Witch Weekly or muggle clothing brands her mother was particularly drawn to, background acting or playing younger versions of characters in film and tv, also joining amateur theatre companies in London with her cousin Ayla, who she becomes extremely close to during her youth, so her face is sometimes seen in posters, covers and plays, but she never has the overwhelming fame that her mother once maybe had, but it's still enough to get to her head.

time moves on...
Reducio
However, despite the covers, the posters, the plays, the nepotism, Twyla is still not happy. How can she be? Whether she's at a photoshoot or an audition, the spotlight is always on Ayla. She's the one that dazzles, that shines. They basically have the same family, the same last name, but no matter what she does, Twyla can never be good enough. The last straw is when she's 10, and her and Ayla both audition for their company's production of Cinderella, and, of course, Ayla is the one that gets Cinderella, whilst Twyla is stuck as one of the Stepsisters.
And then, on her eleventh birthday, a letter from Hogwarts School for Witchcraft and Wizardry arrived through the letterbox, and it sends shockwaves through the household. Although her mother is extremely reluctant to have her daughter leave her, Twyla begs her to attend Hogwarts. Her parents think it's just their daughter needing a break from the work she's doing, or a love for magic, but really it's nothing like that.
During the summer of 2022, the two cousins make a pact.
"If you go to Hogwarts, I go to Hogwarts."
Twyla is thrilled, and the realisation dawns on her that, if Ayla is at Hogwarts, then she's not competing with her anymore. It's neutral ground, ground that can be warped to finally have her on top.
There's the tiny nagging in the back of her head that she's sabotaging Ayla's reputation, but she silences it. Why should she not get a chance for once?

accidental magic
Reducio
At age seven, Twyla was attending a dinner party with her parents at a well-known family's residence. Looking down the long table, the young girl spots a salt shaker shaped like a swan, but it is too far for her to reach. Dismayed, Twyla frowns and looks down at her plate, only to look up again and see that the salt shaker is suddenly right in front of her.
