Shion Mochizuki

Name: Shion Mochizuki (望月星媛)
Blood status: pureblood
Birthday: 19/12/2013
Year: 2nd year
Nationality: Japanese
Residence: Niigata, Japan
Personality:
Shion hates rules to say the least, and she's very stubborn, and while she cares about her family, she never shows that and always pretends to hate everyone, arrogance is one word that's enough to describe her as a whole, however because her family always treats her arrogance like just a childish trait she'll grow out of, she doesn't even realise how full of herself she is, she also has somewhat of a double standard, if you're part of her family she'll most likely accept you and your actions no matter what they are, but if you're not, expect her to be disgusted by the mere thought of your existence, she also has a very bad temper and intolerance for stupidity, so be carful.

Looks:
Her hair is straight with a subtle wave to it, and it's pitch black that you might think it's straight out of the space. Her eyes are dark and sharp, almost as if she's angry all the time. She's more on the short side, but her weight and physique are average.

Background:
The Mochizuki(s) (望月) were never your average family, not average by anyone's standards for anything they're considered to. A family founded by 5 people, 3 witch sisters, their younger squib brother, and his wife who's a Japanese witch, or rather, she preferred to be called a shaman.

The 3 sister witches and their brother were originally from Europe, but they wanted to leave due to the witch trials, they executed muggles that were suspected of magic, so what would they do to actual witches? Muggles are cruel and senseless. Leaving wasn't about safety necessarily, they can protect themselves with magic, but the three sisters strived to use magic freely without the need to hide, and they certainly didn't want to watch muggles hate everything that feels even the tiniest bit different.

That's when they met a Japanese witch, she told them they could come with her and leave this continent, to go to a place where they'll receive less hate, in fact they might be liked. And that's how the Mochizuki (望月) family was founded, but the Japanese witch had a secret, she was a werewolf, she didn't intend harm but she feared they'd hate for it. Until on a night with a full moon, the squib brother had gone outside looking for the Japanese witch, but instead of finding her in human form, he saw her transform to a gaunt werewolf. Scared and perhaps baffled, he ran back to his sisters and told them. In the morning, the werewolf thought for sure they will kick her out, or worse, but when she entered the house, she found the three sister waiting to scold her for not telling them sooner, the sisters didn't care about her curse, they cared about her wellbeing.

And so the Mochizuki family became a family that supports those who need support, and adopt those who have nowhere to go, but only from wizards and squibs, there no place for a muggle among them. The three sisters got married to Japanese wizards, and the squib brother married the Japanese witch, the werewolf, and that's how the family was made and divided into 4 main branches, the pureblood branch, the wizard-born and half-blood branch, the werewolf branch, and the squibs branch. The members from each branch are not necessarily connected by blood, in fact besides the pureblood branch most of them aren't, rather the branches just determined their roles.

The pureblood branch the one Shion belongs to, is meant to always be preserved, at least one member from the pureblood branch had to marry a pureblood to continue the family, and because usually only purebloods can be the leader of the family, with only few exceptions in which the leader was a half-blood or wizard-born. The wizard-born/half-blood branch is naturally the one with the mosg amount of people, due to thd fact that the Mochizuki(s) accepted marriages to muggle-borns, half-bloods, and even squibs, the only unacceptable, and sometimes unforgivable, marriages is ones to Muggles, it's not far fetched that you might be disowned if you marry a muggle, the family held deep hate to them. The squib branch was there to help squibs feel accepted and the case is the same with the werewolves branch, another branch that Shion belongs to.

This family wasn't like others where there's one head and one heir, that everyone follows their orders, rather it's more group orientated, they don't accept if one of them gets hurt, and everyone's needs is always in mind, the first and most important rule is "You can dislike another of your own, and you can disagree with them, but you can't humiliate them and you must treat them with respect, we're all one.", and so the family has all kinds of opinions, from those who hate half-bloods and muggle-borns to those who actually like muggles, but everything that contradicts the family's values shall only remain in your heart, because family always comes first.

Shion was raised very sheltered, as she was expected to become the next leader, but perhaps that caused her to be a bit more stubborn and arrogant, she's not a bully, she just feels herself above others for being the candidate to become a future leader. Her arrogance caused the current leader, a kind hearted woman with 3 children, to second guess her decision, they might accept most opinions in the family, but a leader has to embody the family's values to keep them alive, the leader has to be the most humble of everyone, because they aren't their to order the others around, they're there to help the others, they're there to represent them when needed, they're there to be the first sacrifice in times of need, there's need for food? The leader has to give up dinner and breakfast, there's need for money? The leader has to sell their jewels, someone whose parents died needs a guardian? That's the leader's job to become one or find them one.

And so Shion would find herself losing the privilege she had, but her anger remains in her heart, she wasn't abandoned, no, the current leader is still young enough, that by the time they need a new leader alot will have happened and Shion might become the leader, who knows, she's still only twelve, life is still long, and no other candidate has been chosen.

Regarding her parents, they both are vital parts of the family, her father, an outsider whose pureblood family was long gone, has been the leader of the family's potions' business since 2015, and her mother, a Mochizuki from the pureblood branch, holds the keys to the family's vaults and is currently in charge of distributing the funds to the businesses and the allowances to family members.

In Shion's mother's case, the woman stayed with the family, but in cases where a woman, or anyone, was married outside of the family, They're usually encouraged to keep their name and hyphen it with other family's names, because all your children and grandchildren will still be protected by the Mochizuki family if needed, they're considered just as much as anyone a part of the family. However in cases where they're marrying muggles, you can scratch all that, you won't be keeping the name unless you get divorced, one of the famous cases of that is Ema Howard, the daughter of one of their own who went ahead and married a British muggle.

Shion has two younger siblings who are twins, a brother and a sister, they're 2 years younger than her, and very different, they're not arrogant like their elder sister, rather they are like two mischievous little puppies who can and will destroy your homework when given the chance.

She also has alot of other family members, some by blood and some not, and while she might be arrogant, the adults treat her arrogance as if it's something she'll grow out of, and they never let her treat the other children badly.

Becoming a Werewolf:
Due to the family's back ground, and its story of founding, werewolves were always an important part of it, the family housed many werewolves, some of which weren't part of the family at all, and were here for the accommodations provided. The werewolves quickly feel at home when they come, and those who don't have a family sometimes take the name of the family.

Because of the amount of werewolves present, the family had precautions ready for full moons, before wolfsbane was invented, they had the werewolves go to a nearby forest and a few would stand gurad to make sure no one got hurt, werewolf or human. When wolfsbane was invented however, the family couldn't have been more happy, the day they learned about it become a full-blown party, the accommodations became a comfortable underground room protected with magic, and a huge supply of wolfsbane, some members of the family even specialised in brewing it, they were all a family after all. No one is allowed to go to the underground room, and children are usually put to bed early on full moons nights to prevent any mishaps, because always they accept werewolves, they know that lycanthropy is a curse no should bear if it can be prevented.

But Shion, the certified rule-breaker of the family, had her own plans, she was always curious about werewolves and really wanted to see one of them in action, so when She was 7 years old, she pretended to go to sleep early, and then snuck into the underground room before the night came, "all of them took their potions anyway" is what she thought, but among them there were newly turned children who were still getting used to their new life, some of which forgot to take a dose or two of wolfsbane and therefore couldn't retain their minds, Shion didn't know that.

She hid in a tiny broom closet just outside the place where werewolves stayed, and when she was sure everyone was inside, she got out and went to try and open the door, the very door that was always kept unlocked so that in case something happened the werewolves could open. She entered, and when she was seen a few of the adult sane werewolves rushed to push her out or hold back the children, naturally she was out of the room in a matter of seconds, but she wasn't the only one outside, a young werewolf escaped, and before Shion could react, he attacked her, injuring her shoulder in the process, she screamed, and adults from the house quickly came down, they were horrified when they heared her, the boy was safely returned to the other room and Shion was taken back to the house to be treatd.

Her injury was on her right shoulder blade, after applying powdered silver and dittany, a mixture that this house always seemed to have, it didn't take long for the wound to start sealing and then heal, nevertheless it left a scar behind, a reminder of how curiosity might lead to dire consequences.

The family scolded Shion for going against the rules, even if the family adored werewolves, they're still dangerous, and while she was only turned, she could have end up dead. The leader personally spoke with the young girl too, scolded her about paying no attention to her safety, but she also told her that perhaps this was actually a blessing and a test, a way for her to understand how werewolves feel, so that if she ever becomes the next leader, she becomes a kind hearted and sympathetic one that can understand how werewolves feel.

And thus started the never-ending count downs for the next full moons, it was always a routine for the family, but now it became a routine for Shion herself. Her very first transformation came quickly, time, after all, didn't wait for confused people to gather themselves.

She was given the wolfsbane doses for a week like everyone else, and when it was time for the full moon, one of older werewolves guided her with the others to the underground room, she was scared at first, but the other werewolves reassured her.

When transformed she looks almost like a normal wolf (choosing wolf form), perhaps it's because she always lived among people who accept werewolves she didn't feel the need to hold into her human part, she did retain subtle human features making her look uncanny, especially her human-like eyes that stares at your soul as if it can read your very soul, and her height is just about 4 feet.

FIOM:
The girl was very fussy from a young age, throwing tantrums every now and then, the most memorable tantrum was one from when she was only 4, her younger sister had taken her favourite toy and the girl kept screaming wanting it back when all of a sudden a brust of very angry magic caused a shelf to lose whatever held it to the wall and fell onto the ground with all the unique and valuable vases on it shattering into million pieces. After everyone recovered from the shock, they all started fussing over Shion and celebrating, notable to say her dinner was made of sweets that day.

One day I'll code this...
