              CREATIVE
              xxx»» Norah has an extremely vivid imagination, and a drive to put that imagination to use. She is never not working on some project, to varying degrees of success. She has her own sense of style and aesthetic and doesn't much care for convention. She's prone to shopping at thrift stores, buying the things no one else will look twice at, and finding ways to alter and/or combine them to come up with an interesting look. She has a keen eye for color and can never seem to settle on an artistic medium for her expression. If it exists, she wants to recreate it in paint or chalk or clay. If it doesn't exist, she will use those same materials to try and make it exist.

              DISTRACTABLE
              xxx»» It's very hard to keep Norah's attention on any one project for long. She tends to flit between things with little to no care for what she's abandoning. She's the queen of turning in half-finished assignments that showed a lot of promise, if she'd bothered to complete them, and has mostly coasted through school on her teacher's good will. She's intelligent, but lacks follow through. All anything has to do to draw her attention is be new and shiny. Her passionate nature cannot be contained, and her room and much of her home are a disaster of half-finished paintings and sculptures and dresses.

              LOUD
              xxx»» Norah struggles greatly with the concept of 'quiet.' She finds silence incredibly distracting, and usually needs some kind of music or white noise to keep herself from going insane. She claims she has overly sensitive ears, and can hear everything creaking and groaning and whispering around her if it's too quiet. If she needs to be her own source of noise, she will, constantly singing (quite loudly) to drown out all the little sounds. Her attitude also speaks for itself, both in her inability to shut up, and her clothes. She is determined to grab attention whenever and however she can, because nothing's better for keeping it from getting too quiet than a good conversation between friends.

              UPBEAT
              xxx»» Norah's an exceptionally positive person. She tries to always look on the bright side, and is the first person to paste a smile on her face and point out the silver lining when something bad happens. It's very hard to get her down. She reasons that, life isn't going to make things easy for her, but she's sure as hell not going to make things easy for it, either. She's a fighter, bound and determined to be the change she wants to see in the world. If nothing else, she'll cheer up her friends by acting out and being silly to distract them from their woes.

              QUICK-WITTED
              xxx»» Norah grew up listening to a lot of lawyer-speak, and knows very well how to twist and manipulate words to mean many things. She's not a mean person by nature, but she can be cutting when she wants to be. More often than not, she uses this power to be clever, coming up with puns that are equal parts funny and groan-worthy. She's also quite good at coming up with outside-the-box solutions to problems. Among her friends, she's well known for always being technically right, which she claims is the best kind. She's also an excellent debater, good at finding holes in other people's statements and using them to her advantage.

              COMPETITIVE
              xxx»» Norah views defeat as a learning experience. She's not really in it to win it so much as she views winning as a sign that she's gained knowledge. She's always striving to try her best, to come at it from a new angle, to come up with an answer no one's ever come up with before. She likes to apply her creative and quick thinking to any and all situations. She's prone to declaring anyone who beats her at something to be both her rival and her mentor, seeing nothing as a sign of growth moreso than surpassing a master. Her qualifications for 'master' generally are just 'better than her', of course, and she's always looking for the next challenge.

              CHILDHOOD
              xxx»» Norah's childhood was a fairly simple one, though she can find a way to spin it and make it sound incredibly dramatic. The most interesting thing about it was her birth itself, which is shrouded in mystery, mostly due to her dads never wanting to tell her about it. They always tell her it's not important, which she knows probably just means they acquired her through one of her Pop's many family law court cases. Insert 'family is the people who care about you, not the people you share blood with' speech here. But, that doesn't stop her from pretending she's something dramatic, like a long-lost princess, left with them for her own protection after her kingdom was seized by an evil tyrant. She knows that's ridiculous, of course, but she told that exact story to most everyone she met between the ages of 4 and 9.
              xxx»» At the end of the day, it didn't really matter if she was a long lost princess. She loved her dads too much to want to leave them and rule a kingdom, after all. Besides that, they were the two smartest people she'd ever met (both lawyers, one a muggle working in family law and one a wizard on track to the Wizengamot), and she didn't think any king of queen dumb enough to have their kingdom stolen could be a better parent than they were. Of course, she's seen the inside of many courtrooms and many more lawyer's offices, and has come to the conclusion that, other than her parents, most lawyers are terrible. She's not got much desire to follow in her parent's footsteps, and often feels adrift and pulled in too many directions without guidance. She was always hopeful, once she showed magic at age six, that going to school would help her sort it all out. Going to Hogwarts is basically all she ever wanted.
