Full Name:Nixa Lorraine Swan
Age: 16
House: Slytherin
Year:5th
History (2-4 paragraphs or more):
Perfect, flawless, exemplary, beautiful.
All these words were used to describe the baby that was born to Isabella and Adam Swan. She was the most wonderful human being that was ever brought into the world. Her parents treated her as such. She never wanted for anything, if she wanted a new dress, she got a new dress. All the sparkles and pretties one little girl could handle. Beautiful dresses, a large vanity, a large canopy bed. Materials, it was always the materials that her parents used to buy her love. They hired the best tutors that money could buy and Nixa tried her hardest at first thinking good marks would make them love her more. All the material things that money could buy for their little girl.
It worked up until Nixa Lorrine Swan wanted her parents to attend her sixth birthday party. They bought her the most beautiful pink dress with all the frills. They hired caterers, entertainers, even her first diamond ring.
Nixa would have given all of that up to have mommy and daddy at the party. But as it were, they had their own party to attend and Nixa was left with the nanny once again. The party was fun for everyone who came. Classmates, daughters and sons of the rich that were friends with her parents. It wasn’t what Nixa wanted, Nixa wanted her parents, but she learned quickly that complaining and whining wouldn't be tolerated. ”Don’t play the victim, Nixa” It was something she heard quite often.
Being on the outside looking in, someone would think that the little girl had everything she could ever want. Sure, that was true when it came to things. But what about what the thing a little really wanted. Attention, affection, love from the parents that told that they loved her. Showering her with objects but never really being there started to take a toll on the little girl.
One night, after her parents came home from a very elegant party, they found pink frills on the floor in the living room. Cotton stuffing, ripped canopy and broken toys and things that were thrown about the house. They were enraged, they practically ran up the stairs, fired the nanny for not paying attention to the girl, even though Nixa was laid out in her nanny’s lap crying as she stroked her hair.
”Stop being the victim, Nixa Lorrine Swan!”
It was the final straw, Nixa told her parents that she hated the way they left her alone. Nixa hated that parties were more important than she was and how they never seemed to see how miserable she was. Her father wasn’t having back talk and sass, after the sting in her face subsided, she spent the next day and a half locked up in her room, alone of course.
Her parents could hear small little giggles coming from her room. The sound of tearing, ripping and odd little scraping sounds. When they finally opened the door, they found her floor etched with disturbing drawings, her stuffed animals hung with ribbons for her hair. A small smile spread across her lips as her father opened the door. ’I feel better, Daddy.’
It was a way for her to get attention, the sad thing was that it worked. Her mother nearly fainted, their perfect little princess was sliding off the deep end with no life persevere. They quickly put her into counseling and went back to ignoring her. As long as someone was working with her that was what mattered right?
When Nixa got her letter to Hogwarts, she was excited at first. She thought her parents would take her shopping for school supplies and even take her to the station. She thought wrong, her nanny took her on both accounts and Nixa started to become bitter towards her parents.
With her parents going back to their old ways, she mentally wrote them out of her life. She was thirteen when she started acting out. She would intentionally get detention by lurking the school at night, get caught making out with another girl in the bathrooms. The young Slytherin had enough of being swept under the rug and she got attention from others. She craved attention even if it were negative.
A lot of the times Nixa turned her life stories into fiction. She would spend several hours either journaling her life or turning her life into novels, with all characters based on people from her own experiences. She tried to get her parents to read them but they always seemed to be 'too busy' to take the time to read them.
It wasn't until her fourth year, and barely making acceptable marks, that she started to see that the way she was acting wasn't getting her anything hit detentions and attention from the wrong people. The people she had been hanging out with started to pick on a younger student for their taste in a partner. She immediately told them off and that they were the worst kind of people. Of course, then the backlash came back to her. She didn't mind so much though, she ended up in detention again, this time for defending a student.
Since then, Nixa took to standing up for kids like herself. Not that she would ever admit that she was a black sheep. She oozes self confidence and self assurance even though she is struggling with her own identity.
Her parents never really took to the idea of Nixa being a bad kid, it was all a phase she would grow out of. They weren't entirely wrong, but it was no thanks to them that she started to grow into herself. Between school years she practiced her cello, and actually started to study. If not for her parents then for herself.
Going into her fifth year at Hogwarts, she had a somewhat new outlook on life and couldn't wait to put what she had learned about herself to work.
Personality (1-2 paragraphs or more):Nixa has a sort of aire of self confidence. But it is all an act, she is trying to hide the fact that she has never felt real love and kindness. She can come off as cold sometimes but she does have a warm heart unless she is crossed.
Over past year she also has a reputation as a heartbreaker. She has been trying to find love in all the wrong places and relationships just end in shambles because it isn't the right love for her.
She is a bitter young woman but has large aspirations to become a musician. She even is in the Hogwarts orchestra.
