Backstory

I was sorted into Ravenclaw, but it was difficult to the Sorting Hat to decide, because I was a hatstall. It took seven minutes to decide if I had to get sorted into Ravenclaw or Gryffindor. He told me that he saw wisdom in me. My favourite classes at Hogwarts were Potions, Charms and Flying (before Hogwarts I had a Cleansweep Eleven). And the one I liked the least was History of Magic. Astronomy was easy to me, but I preferred Care of Magical Creatures. In general, I was a very good student. I had nine O.W.L.s. I’m a half-blood, because my mother is a pureblood and my father is a muggleborn, so sometimes people weren’t as kind as they should have been. We are from Spain, so I never have known a lot of He-Who-Must-Not-Be-Named. When I went to Hogwarts the people didn’t speak too much from him, but I was afraid during the war. My greatest strength is my endurance, and my greatest weakness is my excess self-demand. Actually, I’m working as a ministry employee in the Department of Magical Law Enforcement, and in the summers I help Hogwarts’ students to review and reinforece some subjects. But my dream is to return to Spain and work at the Spanish Ministry of Magic, and if I am lucky and I work hard, become the minister of magic. I think I can do it very well, because in truth I only want the best for all, wizards and muggles. I don’t want to have the best workplace, I only want to help others. I think the most fascinating aspect of magic is the capacity to do big things, even if they’re not always good. I have an owl called Savior, who always cries when I pass too much time away from home. He is very loyal and obedient. In Spain my parents look after our cat called Cookie. When I travel to Spain, she tries to ignore me, but finally she always gives up and comes to me to caress her. I love her. My brother and I should have gone to Beauxbatons, but my parents preferred that we go to Hogwarts.
