BACKGROUND
Sylvia is one of those people who has lived in the same house her whole life, her height at every age is marked along the door jam in the hall bath, and her cat is as old as she is. Her home life is always the most stable thing in her world. As a child she was treated to the best her parents could give her, which was always good enough for her. She was by nature a quite girl and never asked for anything, it was nice to receive none the less and so lead to her being a tinsy bit spoiled. In her childhood and beyond…
Her love for song and dance came before Hogwarts, her mother would take her to the best muggle musicals and she had dance lessons three times a week; which was why she was so shocked to be sorting into Ravenclaw. She thought for sure Hufflepuff, her mother had even said so, even if to try and make the eleven year old understand that if she wasn’t sorted into Ravenclaw like the rest of her family they would not disown her. Apparently her analytical mind had won out over her artistic heart. Duty before pleasure and all that.
Her first few years at Hogwarts, Sylvia felt awkward and unsure, and became even more shy than normal. Maxwell tried to help her make friends, he was impossibly charismatic, but Sylvia was more interested in her grades. She felt she had to prove to herself she belonged in Ravenclaw, she had to be the best. Somewhere between second and third year Sylvia succumbed to what is commonly referred to as puberty. She referred to it as slow death once a month. If possible, she became even more awkward; physically that is, mentally she felt she had found her place. Of course she belonged in Ravenclaw, and not everyone was laughing at her huge teeth. Instead they were staring at her new attributes. You win some you lose some.
By fourth year she had actual friends and even a few special ones, by fifth she learned to be satisfied with her perfectly acceptable grades, and by the time six year rolled around Sylvia had filled out quite nicely in all areas of her person. In addition she became an aunt, her crowning achievement thus far, and made at only sixteen. Now in her final year Sylvia wishes for nothing more than to graduate near enough the top of the class, coddle her nephew as much as possible, and find a half-decent dance partner to occupy her free periods.

SYLVIA IN FIVE WORDS
Studious, witty, warm, loyal, sassy
PERSONALITY OVERVIEW
Generally Sylvia is a kind person, but she is a little reserved; very choosy about the people she surrounds herself with, her close friends. Though, once she has dubbed you worthy, beware of her fierce loyalty to the ones she loves. She does try to be warm and accepting to everyone, but she isn’t as outgoing at making friends as some people are. Sylvia would not be the one to initiate a conversation with a complete stranger, and she isn’t the one chatting about mindlessly. Even among a group of her closest friends, Sylvia tries /not/ to be the center of attention. Those closest friends however will tell you in a heartbeat how sassy Sylvia can be and how naughty her sense of humor is.
OTHER TRAITS
Sylvia has been known to be quite sneaky. Mostly because she is the least suspected to be up to something nefarious, and happens to be an excellent liar. Again she just seems so unsuspecting. Who would ever think sweet, soft spoken Sylvia would be eavesdropping on a teacher’s conversation? Sylvia is also prone to bout's of obsessiveness. She can become quite fixated, on school mostly, or music, or dancing, or her nephew.

MISCELLANEOUS
- Sylvia grew up with a healthy mix of muggle in her life, her parents being both muggleborn. She likes both muggle and wizarding fashion and wears whatever makes her feel pretty and comfortable. It’s usually basic solid colors, fitted shapes, and she is also fond of head-wear and accessories to spruce herself up a bit.
- Her father is a Professor of History at St. Anthony’s. Her mother runs a catering company. (Maxwells occupation is blank just in case…but he does have a wife and baby and that’s a job altogether.)
- She loves History.
