Siobhán Lochlainn

Daughter of a pure-blood wizard family, Siobhán was raised by her spinster aunt because her parents were killed by the Bandon Banshee before its banishment. Old enough to recall the incident, it had a profound effect on her. In her late teenage years, Siobhán faced her fears and journeyed into the wilds of Ireland, coming back with a fascination for her home country's ancient magical lore and a determination to master it so that no others would face the same fate as her family. A member of Gryffindor House, Siobhán is emotional, tenacious, imaginiative, determined, and fiercely loyal. Generally introverted, she can also be moody and pessimistic. She has a habit of predicting doom for the future as a coping mechanism for dealing with potential future tragedy, which she feels will recurr after the deaths of her parents. Kind and helpful, her cynicism prevents her from being popular. !!DISCLAIMER!! In this version of Hogwarts, all students begin their 1st year at 18 years old.
