Sophie lived at Meadows manor in London, hidden from muggles. Her family was quite rich and she could get whatever she wanted. Her parents were different from the rest of the family though, they were tolerant of muggles and encouraged her to be the same. Still, they never let her near muggles, for fear of exposing their world and leading to avoidable questioning. She was the older of two siblings and her younger sister, Lily, looked up to her enormously. Sophie had been encouraged to study and uphold the family honour and reputation from a young age. Apart from muggle studies lessons she took separately to understand the muggle world, she also went to a wizarding prep school and was an excellent student there because she worked hard and was naturally bright. Her family was one of the pureblood families who loved socialising and were always inviting someone or the other to dinner. Sophie didn't mind, except for one thing, that if she made a mistake or spilt something, it would reflect badly on the whole family and not just her. Even though she knew her parents wouldn't scold her, she still felt like it was her duty to be a credit to them.

When she got her Hogwarts letter, the family had mixed reactions, Sophie was excited and nervous in equal measure, her parents were pleased as a punch, and her sister, though she knew it was a phenomenal opportunity, still felt sad that they'd have to be separated
Sophie's first instance of magic happened when she was five and gardening in the manor's front garden. She had just been yelled at by her parents and was in a rather angry mood, and putting all of it into shovelling out the soil. Suddenly, all the soil from the place she was digging from flew out by itself and landed in a neat pile - on her head! She didn't forget this for a long time!

Sophie loves gardening, reading, socialising with people and visiting new places and learning new things. She is kind and friendly though, unlike most other purebloods she knows. She is extraordinarily beautiful and often causes distraction to others. When she came to hogwarts, she continued to be a slightly reserved person, but once getting to know someone, chattered nineteen to the dozen with them, and always there to lend a helping hand. She spent a lot of time in the library, reading up new things, and consequently being a very good student or so many people around her thought, because like Hermione Granger, she would seem to have swallowed a textbook when she would turn up for class.

Sophie has blonde hair, a rather haughty look at times, (a misleading impression), blue-grey eyes, and usually dresses up in a rather fancy manner, with formals.

Wand

26,7 cm mayhaw wood and dragon heartstring, flexible
Dragon Heartstrings produce wands with the most magic power that are capable of casting quite flamboyant spells. Wands made from Dragon Heartstring also tend to learn more quickly than other types of cores. While they can change allegiance if won in a duel from their original master, they always bond strongly with their current owner. Dragon Heartstring wands tend to be easiest to turn to the Dark Arts, but will not be inclined that way of their own accord. They are however the most prone of Ollivanders three most-used cores to accidents, being a bit temperamental in nature. These wands are often attracted to flexible or adaptable casters.

Mayhaw as a subspecies of Hawthorn shares many of its characteristics. Mayhaw wands as well as their owners are full of conflict, be it due to being at odds with themselves naturally or due to past circumstances. As Hawthorn wands, wands of Mayhaw wood are excellent for both healing and harming, though they lack the more common varieties of Hawthorn's tendency to backfire when handled incorrectly.
With a calm, placid core like Unicorn hair a Mayhaw wand is an excellent helpmate even to those new to magic, requiring none of the experience or steady demeanor needed for a Hawthorn wand. It is well-suited for both curses and healing magic, less prone to backfiring. Owners often have an internal conflict. Depending on the wand used, these wands can have an analgesic effect if used with a 'healer's core' or a core that leans towards assisting, helping and 'good'. However if the core leans towards the dark arts or destructive power, most spells (even non-damaging ones) tend to be a source of discomfort be it the lights hurting someone's eyes, the bandages being too tight, etc.
