The Basics:

Name: Mae Elizabeth Winters
Nickname: None.
Birthdate: 13th October 1990.
Birthplace: Cornwall, England.
Work/Schooling: Left with good grades from Hogwarts, in which she was a Ravenclaw. She now works as an intern in a large London publishing company.
Family: No siblings, but has an aunt (Mother’s sister, Cynthia Martin) and a cousin, Robert, who lives in London. Her father’s only brother, Michael, was killed in a suspicious accident when he was twenty.
Mother: Annabelle Winters, nee Martin. Graduated from Hogwarts, Ravenclaw, and is a writer.
Father: Alexander Winters. Muggle lawyer.
Siblings: Mae is an only child.
Extended Family: Aunt Cynthia and her son, Robert.
Home: She was born and raised in Hayle, which lies on the Cornish coast. It’s a small town full of old charm and country traditions. Though Mae now resides in her own tiny apartment near her aunt in London and loves what the city can offer her professionally, she still misses the quaintness of her proper home and being next to the sea.

About the character

Appearance: Mae has a fairly pale complexion due to spending a lot of time indoors. She has long, wavy brown hair which she usually leaves down. She’s of average height, around 5’ 5” and of slim build thanks to frequenting the gym. Her eyes are dark brown and exhibit a reserved pensiveness.
Strengths: Hogwarts: History of Magic, Transfiguration, Arithmancy, Occlumency. General: Attention to detail, logical approach to everything and dedication.
Weaknesses: Hogwarts: Flying, Herbology. General: Sometimes too quiet for her own good and won’t speak her mind, often leading to people walking over her.

Personality: Mae is determined to succeed. Because of having a small family, she is very close to her parents and her greatest goal is to make them proud. Her determination often makes her appear cool and disinterested in others, but she is merely quiet and contemplative. Also, she is more of a logical person, than an emotional person. Her upbringing was strict, with an emphasis being placed on education and as such she thinks things through intellectually. She lets her emotion out in her writing and magic in the comforts of her own simple apartment. The death of her young uncle, whom she never met, left her father to be wary of witches and wizards, as the ‘accident’ was rumoured to be caused by magic so Mae is very cautious and mindful not to use it in front of him. She is close to her mother too, however, so they practice magic together when Annabelle comes to visit. It is from her mother’s side that she gets her creativity, but her father’s the logicality. Also, where she is shy, she has few close friends that she can truly trust, but doesn’t mind this as she prefers to be on her own, believing the only person who can help her is herself.

Hobbies: Magic, foreign films, literature, playing the violin and piano.
Pet: A tabby cat named Cleo.
Wand: 12” Holly Dragon Head String.
School: Hogwarts.
House: Ravenclaw.

Short History of The Character: Mae was not her parents’ first child. Eloise was born six years before her younger sister but drowned when Mae was three, in the sea not far from their house in which they still live now. The community were surprised the couple has decided to stay but they wanted to be near where they believed Eloise’s spirit remained. This death, despite Mae not remembering her sister much, left a dramatic, unspoken mark on the family as Mae was pushed, in her mind, to succeed for both sisters. She did not have playmates as a child, except for her cousin, Robert, who is the same age as her. She was also left alone a lot, whilst her parents worked and grew fond of her babysitter, Emma Hope. Both her and Robert went to Hogwarts, where he was sorted into Gryffindor and her Ravenclaw. For the most part, they grew separated, each having their own goals. She was deeply affected, though spoke to noone about it, when her only best friend was killed in Hogsmeade by a rogue Death Eater. Since then she has been wary of everyone she meets and aside from her work she greatly sympathises with the Aurors.

After graduating, Mae immediately sought out work doing something she loved: writing. She was immediately accepted as an intern for Blackmoor Publishers and worked hard to get over her home sickness. When she had first moved, six months ago, the transition had been hard. Being alone, her mother had worried for her, and encouraged Mae to seek out her friend Margaret Hope, her old babysitter Emma's mum and in turn get in contact with with Emma if she was in the area. She is now getting more used to the idea of being away from her parents and living the city life.
Primary Character: First.
