Appearance:

• Always with a joking tone Arabella has said that her looks very much fit her profession in that she is attractive, generally speaking. Standing at a completely modest 5’1” she has the curves of a woman that most men can appreciate with long locks of blonde and shimmering blue eyes. She is able to, because of her profession, keep herself well enough fed as not to lose her beautiful figure to a famished looking frame and dresses in clothes that are very modest but not entirely raggedy looking. She wields her wand in her right hand though finds writing easier with her left.
  

History:

• 1860 | Arabella is born the second child to the underprivileged Flowersmith family. Though not at all wealthy, they are pleased enough to have another child in their family and treat Arabella with as much love as they can possibly give in their busy schedules.
  
  1862 | She is two years old when her younger brother is born. Being that she hardly is old enough to have an opinion there is little thought on her part to the addition to the family.
  
  1863 | Lysander is born and again she hardly pays much attention, instead still figuring out the world as a toddling youngster.
  
  1865 | Her mother begins tutoring her in how to read and write with what little knowledge she has. Arabella struggles at first but manages to get moderate skill in both things before long. She works hard to try to better herself at both tasks, not wanting to end up unable to read or write.
  
  1867 | Astrid is born and after years of wondering if Arabella was a squib her parents are proved wrong when she turns the baby purple as her first expression of magic.
  
  1871 | Arabella starts Hogwarts and is sent using money that was formerly used to send Abigail who has failed to gain a scholarship. Mildly nervous to be without her family, she is sent and sorted into Slytherin where she meets Indira Singh - a fellow first year with whom she quickly bonds.
  
  1873 | Failing to gain a scholarship, Arabella is unable to return to Hogwarts for her third year, instead giving her brother Lloyd the chance to see if he can gain a scholarship to the prestigious school. Immediately she begins working as a maid and finds that she is fairly useless at the job.
  
  1874 | For a year she moves from job to job, unable to keep anything down as her pride and lack of experience gets in her way. She sells her wand out of desperation for some money.
  
  1875 | It is towards the end of the year that a man offers money to take her virginity from her. She is wary to do such things - she has long since known that she holds no attraction towards men or desire for intimacy for them - but inevitably accepts for the price of a galleon. It is a disgusting moment in her life but when the man expresses interest in doing such again she finds herself quickly fixed into the world of prostitution, a job she loathes but does purely for the steady income.
  
  1879 | She moves to Hogsmeade, leaving her family behind and continuing her line of business. She has gathered quite enough skill to get decent enough pay on a regular basis and though she finds the men she sleeps with utterly disgusting she reminds herself that she must eat and house herself. Needless to say she has no personal affairs of her own - men are not to her taste though she is loathe to admit that perhaps something closer to herself is.
  
  1882 | Reunited with her old school friend in the beginning of the year, she becomes her room mate of sorts and is glad to have the company. Towards the end of the year she brings a pregnant fellow prostitute to her, hoping that Indira can help get rid of the problem. She manages to do so by concocting a potion that while causing excruciating pain aborts the baby.
  
  1883 | Horrified to find herself pregnant, Arabella asks Indira to help her take care of the problem. It is the most horrifying, painful and intense moment of Arabella's life and she never wants to experience it again. She hopes to never become pregnant again and though she entertains ideas of leaving the business finds herself unable to do such.
