Appearance: Oceane is a rather delicate looking blonde. She stands at a rather petite five foot even and has a slender build. She was, however, lucky enough to be graced with a rather voluptuous chest and thanks to the trends in fashion, she’s able to at least mimic having a fabulous derriere as well. She matches the rest of her sisters in coloring with light blonde hair and pale blue eyes. Her hair is long with a slight wave to it if ever seen down. It is most often found up in whichever styles are in the height of fashion, much like her attire. Her complexion remains to be almost porcelain like in appearance without a blemish to be seen. She is often only seen with a smile on her face while alone in quiet contemplation, working on whatever art may have captured her fancy or while playing the piano. She could easily be ambidextrous considering her favorite hobbies lie in the arts but she surely favors her right hand.
History:

1866: Oceane Alexandria is born into the Beaumont family. The fourth child, third daughter.
1868: Mathias leaves for school and is sorted into Ravenclaw. Oceane is too young to realize what exactly is happening and remains rather oblivious over it.
1869: Anais is born. Oceane is still too young to fully comprehend the meaning behind it.
1871: Dorothee leaves for school and joins Mathias in Ravenclaw.
1873: Francoise leaves for school, joining her older siblings in Ravenclaw. This is also the year that Oceane finally shows her first signs of magic. When Anais ruins a coloring Oceane had been working on, she levitates the youngest Beaumont up onto a shelf where she can no longer ruin her quiet and peaceful time.
1877: It is finally Oceane’s turn to leave for school. She breaks the Ravenclaw cycle and is sorted into Slytherin. It comes as a bit of a surprise that the quiet and intelligent miss is sorted into the house but time can surely only tell what the Sorting Hat was thinking.
1880: Francoise marries and quickly proves to be a Fertile Myrtle. Anais begins attending Hogwarts and is sorted into Slytherin along with Oceane.
1881: Dorothee marries and follows in her sister’s steps in proving to be quite fertile. Oceane is actually quite disappointed when she isn’t made a prefect.
1882: Oceane finishes up her fifth year after sitting her OWLs and proves to do rather well. Though on the quiet side for a Slytherin, she proves to be quite intelligent, with great ambition to be the top of her class when it comes to her grades.

She drops Herbology, DADA and Potions when she starts her sixth year of school, finding that the more hands on type of classes aren’t quite to her liking. Especially Herbology because she is not all that fond of getting her hands dirty by any means.
1883: Father falls ill in the beginning of the year and passes before Oceane and Anais are home from school. It leaves Oceane quite shaken but she’s confident in Mathias’s abilities as the head of the Beaumont household.
1884: Oceane graduates from Hogwarts with O’s all across the board on her NEWTs. She’s quite certain she graduates with the best grades (even if it may not be the truth). That summer, quite the argument breaks out between Mathias and Anais. Oceane remains completely mum on the subject and instead focuses more on her debut into society and finding an eligible gentleman to marry.
1885: While her official debut season is not entirely productive, the beginning of 1885 proves to show some promise. She meets Mr. Upton Nott, a gentleman that turns out to be an old school friend of Mathias’s, at a rather interesting ice ball. There ends up being a small spark to start but Oceane is hesitant to allow herself too much excitement over the matter, knowing how easily the attentions of a gentleman can sway. It isn’t until the end of May that the sporadic meetings with Mr. Nott prove to be fruitful when he asks to officially court her after receiving permission from her brother.
1886: Oceane is quite content with the way her life has progressed. While her courtship with Mr. Nott has been slow moving, she is quite happy with the attentions she does receive from the gentleman. Her brother’s own drama, however, has proved to be something of a distraction but she’s glad it has been taken care of. She also finds it oddly amusing that Mathias is marrying a lady that not only is just a few days younger than her but was in Slytherin with her as well.

Personality: Prim and Proper. Quiet and Pleasant. Purist. Knows her place in life. Intelligent. Devoted and sweet once broken passed the shy barrier. Could come off as snobbish for her desire not to speak to anyone who isn't pureblood and for her shy demeanor. Artistic and musical. Known to have quite the sense of humor among those who know her best.
