Finally, her name was called to be sorted. Rose eagerly approached the stool, nearly at a run. She heard some of the teachers chuckling, but she didn’t care. She was finally at Hogwarts, ready to “dive into the depths of learning”, as her mother often said. Grinning from ear to ear, she jammed the hat onto her curly head.[/color]

Amortentia:
Rose slowly lowered her nose toward the simmering cauldron, closing her eyes and holding her hair back. As she drew in a deep breath, the most wondrous scents danced through her nostrils. She sighed deeply as she stood upright; beaming.
“I smelt spearmint, fresh parchment, and treacle tart!” She said to her professor, still slightly giddy.
Boggart:
Finally, it was Rose’s turn to face the boggart. As the boy in front of her moved to the back of the line, she stepped forward, wand at the ready. She was slightly nervous, wondering what her boggart would be. The look on her freckled face went from confident to anxious as she approached the shapeshifter, which was currently a giant cobra in a knot.
She gasped loudly as her mother suddenly appeared in front of her. For a moment, she looked completely normal; but then, Hermione writhed with pain and cried with agony.
“No, please stop!” Her mother screamed as she fell to the floor, her hands gripping her head. Rose stood petrified on the spot. ‘The Cruciatus Curse!’ She realized, mouth agape. All of a sudden, her mother transformed into her father. He, too, was being tortured, but he was now shaking violently on the floor. Then, he changed into Hugo. Then Albus. Then Uncle Harry. Then Grandfather Weasley.
“R-R-Riddik-RIDDIKULUS!” Rose choked, tears streaming down her face. Grandfather Weasley suddenly stopped screaming, and was now laughing in hysterics on the classroom floor. Rose found herself sinking to her knees, her hand covering her mouth as she tried to hold back sobs.
After hearing the terrifying stories of the torture of her mother at Bellatrix Lestrange’s wand, Rose’s worst fear is her family being brought to complete insanity by the Cruciatus Curse.
Patronus:
"Expecto Patronum!” Rose cried, thrusting her wand forward. A silvery, misty light shot from the tip of her wand and a ghost-like hedgehog appeared. Rose cooed with delight as her patronus rolled about in the air, batting its paws playfully. First one as usual, Rose thought smugly, grinning. Then, with a wave of her wand, the cat disappeared in a small puff of silver smoke.[/color]
Rose’s patronus takes the shape of a common hedgehog; due to her superior intellectual abilities, her level head, as well as her rather quiet nature. The hedgehog also sometimes needs extra protection, which was why it was provided with spikes on its back. Rose is susceptible to anxiety and has self-esteem issues; therefore, she often needs to be surrounded by familiar, friendly faces.
Strengths:
• Her intellectual ability
• Her strong work ethic
• Her composed attitude
• Her loyalty to her family
• Most school subjects (apart from Divination)
Weaknesses:
• Her stubborn attitude
• Her bossy manner
• Her short temper
• Her “know-it-all” label
• Divination (“I won’t like it if I can’t learn it from a book. Mum calls classes like that ‘wooly’, and I tend to agree”.)
Personality:
Rose is often told that she is “the spitting image of her mother”. It became apparent as she grew older that she had inherited not only her mother’s hair, height, and eyes; but also her intelligence and outlook on life. She always gives one hundred and ten percent in school, fighting through the extreme anxiety to do well. Like Hermione, Rose loathes laziness and heavily disapproves of copying assignments. She even develops extreme discomfort while flying, and prefers to watch rather than play Quidditch.
However; she also shares many attributes with Ron. She has a nasty temper, even when not studying, and tends to say things she does not necessarily mean. She loves the Chudley Cannons Quidditch team, which makes her father quite happy when she accompanies him to local matches. However; she cracks easily under stress, and she often excessively agonizes over major assignments and tests (with no help from her mother’s frequent owls on the subject). Rose also seems to have developed her father’s sense of wise-cracking humor, and she often found browsing through her Uncle George’s joke shop while in Diagon Alley (much to Hermione’s dismay).
Still, Rose is extremely dedicated to her family and friends. She regularly puts their feelings before her own and often tries to make everyone happy. The frequent pressure from her mother and father to do exceptionally well in school has made Rose somewhat of a “stress magnet”. However; she has become rather attached to her cousin Albus, because he lifts the family pressure from her shoulders with his laid back attitude.

a p p e a r a n c e
Hair:
She clearly developed her mother’s curly locks, though the color is a mixture of Hermione’s deep brown and Ron’s fiery red. She likes to keep her hair of medium length, and she hardly ever straightens it. Rather, she hardly ever touches her hair at all. (“I’ve got more important things to worry about! Like my Arithmancy essay!”)
Eyes:
Her eyes are a chocolate brown, which she could have inherited from either side of the family. They are of a simple oval shape, with rather long lashes and thin, brown eyebrows
Complexion:
She has fair, pinkish skin; along with the distinctive Weasley freckles across her nose and cheek bones. After the summer holidays, however, she is distinctly browner, thanks to her family’s vacations across Europe.
Height:
She stands at roughly five feet, six inches.
Weight:
She weighs roughly 118 pounds; 122 on the bad days
Build:
Rose has always been on the thin and lanky side, just like her father (“Well Hermione, it’s better than her being a little porker, right?”). She’s of average height, and she prefers it that way.
Unique Features:
She seems to have inherited her father’s rather long nose and lanky frame.

History:
Rose Hermione Weasley was born at approximately 8:30 PM on May 31st, 2006 to Ronald and Hermione Weasley. She was a fussy baby who had difficulty falling and staying asleep, however; she would heartily eat whatever was placed in front of her (“Just like her father,” Hermione would say). It was clear early on that she had inherited Hermione’s intelligence; quickly learning to grasp objects as an infant and reading by the age of four.
She showed her first signs of magical abilities at the age of five, while staying at The Burrow over the Christmas holidays. She’d seen her father and Uncle Harry use their wands to levitate the many ornaments onto the upper branches of the Christmas tree. When they were called by Grandmother Weasley, they ventured into the kitchen; Ron’s wand forgotten on the end table. Cheeky little Rose snatched her father’s wand and pointed it sharply at a remaining ornament. Sure enough, it flew a few feet into the air and landed with a sharp crash on the floor. Of course, the rest of her family had seen what had happened through the kitchen doorway, and Rose was promptly bombarded with hugs and kisses from her family. However; she was later punished by her mother for “using Daddy’s wand without any supervision”.
Years before she started school at Hogwarts, Rose was deeply interested in reading and learning. She nearly always had her nose buried in a book, and it usually took a moment for anyone to avert her attention to something else. It was a favorite pastime of hers to dig through her mother’s old school books and skim through their pages, seeking all that she could retain to memory. When she asked her father if she could see his old books, he promptly told her that he and Uncle Harry “burned theirs at a glorious bonfire” when Harry had turned eighteen.
Now in her sixth year at Hogwarts, Rose is getting along quite nicely. She has made many new friends, both in Gryffindor and the other houses, though she spends most of her time with her cousin, Albus Severus (a Slytherin). She’s also known as “the know-it-all” and achieved 10 O.W.Ls at the end of her fifth year (Arithmancy, Ancient Runes, Muggle Studies, Potions, Charms, Transfiguration, Herbology, Defense Against the Dark Arts, History of Magic, and Astronomy).

She hesitated for a moment, her hand playing with her ink bottle. The professor had asked a question, and she hadn’t a clue what the answer was! Frowning slightly, she then twirled a dark red curl around her index finger, lost in thought. A bezoar is a remedy to any poison, she thought, looking around the room at the other clueless faces. But where does it come from?
Suddenly, chocolate brown eyes widening, her hand shot into the air. She nearly toppled out of her seat as her professor nodded in her direction. “A bezoar comes from the stomach of a goat, sir”, she answered matter-of-factly.
“Correct, miss Weasley,” Her professor chortled. “Five points to Gryffindor!” Her freckled face now pink, Rose Weasley neatly copied down the location of a bezoar. She didn’t note her fellow Gryffindors silently high-fiving each other; or a few of the Ravenclaws’ eye rolls.

After class, Rose headed toward the Great Hall for dinner. She was looking forward to find her cousin Al and ask him how he was, since she didn’t have any classes with the Slytherins that day. As she strolled down one of Hogwarts’ many hallways, her bookbag nearly exploding with textbooks, she thought about what she had to do the next day.
“Well, I have Arithmancy and Charms in the morning,” She told herself, climbing down a staircase. “And then Ancient Runes and Transfiguration in the afternoon. Oh, and tea with Hagrid after that. And I need to send Mum an owl about my latest Herbology exam, and Professor Longbottom wanted to ‘send his love’ again. . .” The stress had started once again. As Rose neared the Great Hall, more and more nagging thoughts circled her head. She had so many things to get done, but not a lot of time to do them. “I really need to talk to Al,” She muttered crossly as she entered the Great Hall. “He would clear my head in an instant!” Though her other friends called to her, she merely waved distractedly as she set her things down, quickly scanning the crowded room for her distinctive cousin.
[NOTE: Some of her attributes and statuses are tentative, including her relationship with Albus, Scorpius etc]
