Backstory
Name: Olivia Wood
Birthday: August 15
Wand: 11¾" Rowan wood, Unicorn Hair core, slightly yielding.
Background:
Olivia Wood was born into a half-blood family in the countryside of Wiltshire, England. Her mother, Evelyne Wood, a brilliant herbologist, is a witch who once worked for St. Mungo's, while her father, Daniel Wood, is a muggle geologist with a deep love for nature. Olivia grew up surrounded by sprawling hills, forests, and endless fields, sparking her connection to both the magical and natural world from an early age. Her parents’ differing backgrounds made Olivia curious about both the magical and non-magical world, giving her a unique perspective.
Early Life:
From a young age, Olivia was always outside, climbing trees or exploring hidden nooks of the forest near their home. Her affinity for nature was evident, and her magic often manifested in small, quiet ways—like flowers blooming where she stepped or the wind responding to her emotions. Her calm yet adventurous nature stood out.
On her 8th birthday, Olivia had a peculiar experience with a wild unicorn foal that wandered into her family's land. She was mesmerized by the creature and, unusually, it seemed drawn to her, allowing her to approach and touch its shimmering mane. This rare encounter cemented her love for magical creatures and hinted at her future potential with magical beasts.
Hogwarts Years:
Olivia received her letter to Hogwarts on her 11th birthday. On her first visit to Ollivanders, she was matched with a Rowan wood wand—a symbol of protection and often found in the hands of witches with great courage and a strong moral compass. The Unicorn Hair core, combined with the rowan wood, made for a wand that reflected Olivia's purity of heart and connection to creatures. Slightly yielding, the wand suited her gentle but firm nature, especially in her practice of Charms and Care of Magical Creatures
Personality:
Olivia is thoughtful and reflective, but she is not afraid to stand up for others when needed. Despite her quiet demeanor, she’s deeply adventurous, often found in the Forbidden Forest, gently caring for magical creatures or studying them from afar. She has a strong moral code and always strives to protect those who can’t protect themselves, both human and creature alike.
Future Aspirations:
Olivia hopes to work with magical creatures after graduation, with a particular interest in conservation and rehabilitation of endangered species. Her dream is to travel the world, studying and protecting magical creatures in their natural habitats, while using her knowledge of Herbology to create safe environments for them
