Serena Lockwood

Backstory

Nobody ever said it would be easy to be a Ravenclaw in her sixth year at Hogwarts. I come from a pureblood family of Gryffindors, so when I was sorted into Ravenclaw the pressure was on to be top of my year! The Sorting Hat didn't even hesitate with me. Touched the top of my head and screamed it out.

My best class is Herbology, but you don’t want to know how long I spend writing and rewriting those essays! I like Astrology, Potions, and Herbology because of all the hands-on work. Or as I call it “hands-off-the-quill-work.” I was always the one in the family to sneak up onto the roof and just stare up at the sky most nights.

When I’m not studying you can probably find me on the Quidditch Pitch at practice. If I'm not there, then maybe I'm getting into some trouble. I mean, I do come from a long line of Gryffindors. Pranks and mischief are sort of in my blood that way. Otherwise, I work most of the time at the Three Broomsticks in Hogsmeade. Don't even try to figure out how I was allowed to work in town. I'm still trying to figure that out myself. Maybe it's because my family lives pretty close to the Muggle world. Not too sure.

To be honest, my family is cursed. Anyone in the Lockwood family is cursed. You’re considered lucky if you never trigger it. But you give up so much to ensure you don’t trigger it. The curse? To become a werewolf on the first full moon after you kill someone. On accident or otherwise. All I know is that I'm glad that I finally triggered mine.
