*I am still a student at Hogwarts

I was born in Canada, but I have Greek origins. One of my older sisters was in the UK during Lord Voldemort's first rise to power, and sadly she did not survive it, as she was a sworn muggle-protector (or no-majs, as named in North America); which is the trigger that set me on my path to becoming an Auror. My (currently) eldest sister is a Healer; my mother, who comes from the middle east, works in the Department of Mysteries which usually makes for (somewhat) good gossip; my step-father is the head of the Department of Magical Law Enforcement (I'm still figuring out my real ancestry - my mother doesn't exactly help, though); and my other older sister is a Spell Inventor, so I always have the upper hand in duelling classes.

The Sorting Hat put me into Slytherin. Now, coming from a family full of Slytherin-hating Ravenclaws, I was ironically not completely devastated whatsoever. I was an interesting case of a hatstall, though. The Sorting Hat saw lots in me: I was a hard worker, loyal, but Hufflepuff just wasn't for me. I appreciated knowledge and respected wisdom, but it wasn't a priority. I was a very strong mix, of both Slytherin and Gryffindor: resourceful, cunning, ambitious, determined, and clever; yet brave, chivalrous and daring. But eventually, the hat decided on Slytherin.

In my spare time, I would probably be practicing my charms or defence against the dark art spells, coming up for Quidditch plans, or reading a good book under a tree.
