    Bree Donovan

    In Character
    [Image: e8e864f1-11b8-425d-be20-6423d599fdc2.jpg]
    Full Name: Bree Deirdre Donovan
    Nicknames: N/A
    Birthdate: August 31, 1866
    Current Age: Seventeen
    Occupation: Prefect (Pending Approval)
    Hogwarts House: Gryffindor
    Wand: Slightly springy, 8'', pine and unicorn tail hair
    Blood Status: Pureblood
    Social Class: Middle Class
    Family:
      Flynn Donovan | Father | 1824 - 1877
      Polly Mac Branain | Mother | 1830 - 1877
      Eoin Donovan | Brother | 1853 - ?
      Niall Donovan | Brother | Apr. 27 1856 - ?

      This is Bree’s official list of kin.
    Appearance:

      Most unlike her brothers, Bree Donovan has red hair that flows to beneath her rump when left loose and dark green eyes. Also unlike her obscenely tall brothers, Bree inherited her mother's height and is a mere 5'2" with hopefully an inch or two left to grow. She's petite, meticulously cares for and cleans her clothes, and is right handed.

    History:
      1866 |

        The baby of the family, Bree is born a squalling thing at nearly midnight.

      1868 |

        Niall goes off to Hogwarts and is sorted into Gryffindor.

      1872 |

        Niall is expelled and disowned. Bree, being only six, doesn't understand the fact that she may never see her brother again. She throws fits and tries to write letters to her brother, but her parents forbid it and stop every attempt she makes.

      1877 |

        Bree is awoken in the middle of the night to the smell of smoke. Her house, and several others in her neighborhood, were burning and Eoin was in her room trying to get her out. It had been a dry summer and all the surrounding houses went up in a puff of smoke. Eoin and Bree barely made it out unscathed, her parents however had made it out a few minutes prior.

        The townspeople started surrounding the small family of four and Eoin quickly grabbed hold of Bree and apparated away. Their parents never got that chance.

        She hardly had enough resources to start Hogwarts that fall. It was hard enough finding a place suitable enough in Hogsmeade to live, and it was even harder to stop the night terrors and dreams from taking over. Even once she's sorted into Gryffindor Bree has half a mind to quit. This wasn't what she wished to be doing and all the other kids had no idea what it was like to abandon your parents; to run for your life.

        Somehow or another, Bree managed to survive her first year and then decided to make the best out of her schooling. Eoin was making enough to send her to school so long as she maintained a partial scholarship. Their parents weren't forgotten, but it simply became easier to not talk about them.

      1880 |

        Eoin gets married to some harlot that Bree cannot stand to spend more than five minutes around. Their relationship begins to suffer as a result.

      1881 |

        Eoin and the whore have their first child, and Bree finally has had enough. It drives her crazy to see them both going goo-goo-ga-ga over some screaming thing.

      1882 |

        She reconnects with Niall and decides to move in with him. Living with Niall is easier than pretending to like the people in your house, and it wasn't as if Bree was home enough for Niall to drive her crazy.

        Bree scores superbly on her OWLs and continues on with her newfound desire to become an auror. Mostly, she just wants to make enough money to help support herself, though she desires to see the good in the world as life hadn't been that good to her.

      1883 |

        After being approached by a boy in town, Bree makes the firm decision to remain pure until her marriage. It's not that she's interested in making more of herself than she is, but more along the lines that she wants to make her future love happy.

        She's currently in her seventh year and moving quickly along in her desire to be an auror.

    Personality: Meh.
