APPEARANCE

Eir would look kind of like a modern version of Snow White, but only for people who think of Snow White as a little creepy. Although most of her features are not particularly unique in any way, and she is of average height and build, her skin is not translucent, but deathly pale and her lips a naturally dark red to complement the jet black of her long, coarse hair. She doesn't wear make-up, but her golden yellow eyes are synthetic. She was born blind, and was given the option to beta-test the first generation of commercially available magic eyeballs when she was five.

SPECIALIST SUBJECT

Magical Theory

WAND

Sycamore Wood, Unicorn Hair Core, 9 inches, Whippy. Sycamore Wood - The sycamore makes a questing wand, eager for new experience and losing brilliance if engaged in mundane activities. It is a quirk of these handsome wands that they may combust if allowed to become ‘bored,’ and many witches and wizards, settling down into middle age, are disconcerted to find their trusty wand bursting into flame in their hand as they ask it, one more time, to fetch their slippers. As may be deduced, the sycamore’s ideal owner is curious, vital and adventurous, and when paired with such an owner, it demonstrates a capacity to learn and adapt that earns it a rightful place among the world's most highly-prized wand woods. Unicorn Hair - Unicorn hair can be used in wandmaking; they produce the most consistent magic, least subject to fluctuations and blockages, most difficult to turn to the Dark Arts and the most faithful of wands. However, they do not make the most powerful of wands and are prone to melancholy if mishandled.

PATRONUS

Crow

OVERVIEW

Eirwyn even as a kid would be best described as the kind of girl with her head in the clouds. Although good with dead languages and magical theory, she tends to wander off during conversations, usually too busy with the overactive imagination consuming her brain. Instead, she spends most of her free time sitting outside and gazing off into space. Despite this apparent absent-mindedness, Eir is deceptively focused and curious. She believes that the world is beautiful and mysterious and that there is much to be learned from it. She is endlessly looking for more facts to hoard, more realities to understand, more fun, beautiful, complex, nonsensical things to discover. Though not the most loud and adventurous in the traditional sense, she doesn't really have a sense of fear and would do anything to learn more about the things that interest her. Generally perceived as quiet, an impression seconded by a light, soft voice, Eir is actually quite talkative and rambly if one decides to start a conversation with her in the first place. She also loves her independence, and is a free spirit, not easily influenced by others.

Eir was raised by her single father, Chaunce Lacey, who is a relatively well-off half-blood with no living relatives. Apparently he spent a mysterious night with a strange woman "just passing through" and got Eir as a present on his doorstep a month later with a note claiming it was his. He never questioned it, despite the strange timeline. Eir personally feels like there's more to this story than he tells her, but she had a calm, loving childhood so doesn't really mind. She was a Hogwarts Ravenclaw before coming to Domchelys. She likes the turtle better, personally. In addition to her white skin and born-blindness, being half-yuki-onna means that she is quite comfortable in the cold, so she does not own winter clothes beyond a couple scarves for fashion. Some people also say a chill settles over you if you look directly at her, but those are probably just rumors.
