Appearance:

• Practically mirroring her younger twin sister as far as looks go, Lucy is fair and bright where her sister is dark and dismal. Her blonde hair is kept long and it shows through the elaborate ways she pins it back. Her eyes are a brown color slightly lighter than those of her sister and though she stands at the same height of 5'7" and sports the same build her mannerism serve to make her seem much more welcoming than her twin. She is right handed and dresses in light colors at all times lest she feel 'dreadfully dark'.

History:

• Lucretia was the first born child to Fitzwilliam and Ruth Thronthwaite followed by a twin sister who would later turn out to be vastly different from herself. She grew up not knowing her mother as she passed on not terribly long after her birth and was raised instead by nannies and nurses alongside her sister whom she very much adored. As children they were close most likely moreso because they had no choice rather than a true bond but Lucy very much enjoyed the closeness to her twin though it was not to last long.

  
  At the age of six it became apparent that Lettie was not like herself at all. Odd things happened and it would soon be revealed that her sister was magical - an extraordinary thing that for a while Lucy was quite enamored with the idea of. Their father, however, was very unimpressed with the thought that his daughter was different, perhaps thinking that it would get in the way of her prospects to marry up from their middle class life later in life. Their father's poorly veiled preference for Lucy because of this caused a rift between the twins from an early age.

  
  When Lettie got her letter to go to a magical school at age eleven she was sent off while Lucy stayed in their non-magical environment ever tutored in propriety and other such feminine duties to prepare her for life as a married woman. She was not overly dismayed at the idea - taking rather well to feminine pursuits such as flower arranging, needlework and music - and though she sometimes wondered what it would be like to have magic like her sister she was very much content with the life she lead.

  
  For a time when her sister returned for breaks in school she tried to rekindle their friendship, to which her sister was completely ambivalent to. It was around the time that they were seventeen that Lucy realized her sister was lost to her in regards to how close they had once been. Still she tried to fix their friendship but her efforts had still failed by the time she was nineteen and married off to Clifford Figg, a muggle man with a vast wealth. The marriage bumped her up to the life of an upper class woman - one the social butterfly was very much suited to.

  
  She was married for nearly two years when she birthed her first son whom she named Newton. Two years later she has another son that she names Bluford. Things are well for the young family though in 1867 - after weeks of trying to figure out how her son reached books so very high up - she finds that Newton has magic just like her sister did. She is not overly concerned with the idea, determined that her son will be perfect whether he has magic or not and is very pleased to think that her son has an extra talent.

  
  In 1872 Bluford shows signs of magic by making a staircase disappear whilst running from his nurse who is about to scold him. Lucy calls upon her sister to fix things and is once more pleased enough that her second son shows signs of magic. When the time comes, she happily sends them both off to Hogwarts - the school where her sister learned magic.

  
  It is 1883 when they relocate to Irvingly - a town where muggles and magic folk intermingle - and Lucy is very much pleased with the quaint, ever-growing place.
