Noirin Polkinghorn Half-blood Ravenclaw
Character Backstory:ReducioIsil, a struggling uni student when Rin was conceived agreed to give sole custody of her child over to the father, Hendrick. Because the split was so amicable Hendrick didn't feel the need to reveal the magical world to Isil whom to his knowledge was a Muggle.
He studied journalism to completion with constant visits from dear ones to help raise little Rin. Among his support system were actually very few family members. His eldest sister, her wife, and their adopted daughter were the only Polkinghorns to not sever ties with him and his half-blooded daughter.
From Rin's perspective her father has it all figured out. He leaves in the morning with food in his mouth and none of his work forgotten because it's all visible beneath his arms. Others are sluggish when they should instead sleep in and prepare faster. She confuses Hendrick's haphazard morning dashes for efficiency. His job at the paper may have subconsciously endeared histories and theories of histories onto her.
The women in her life that chose love over chasing blood likely have a bigger impact on Rin than she realizes. Her two aunts and cousin tried to get her to call themselves the sisters three when she was little because they thought she struggled to remember their names. She called them her aunties instead much to their chagrins.
It was feared she would continue to lack focus and the ability to make connections until one day the concept of manners clicked for her. If it mattered to someone else she should feign that it did to her too, until it did enough to at least remember it. They still hope she'll improve as there is a glaring difference when comparing her genuine emotions versus her memorized ones.
One of the most glaring examples to compare her usual indifference to was when she took a liking to dirt. It wasn't an aha moment that led to her obsession with it. It was as simple as a child liking how it sometimes had sparkles and expanding upon that as she aged. Her current style evolved into what it is today because she likes to be comfortable and her family thinks she likes flowers.
First Instance of Magic:ReducioIt happened when she was eight. While helping her father dry dishes she accidently snapped the handle off of a mug. It miraculously repaired itself along with packaging in the nearby recycling bin.
