Significant People in Your Life:Anna Reid(Carson),39-Mother, Derek Reid, 41-father
Pet(s): black kneazle named Lumos
Economic Status: Lower middle class
Anna and Derek Reid fell in love in Italy. Anna had opened up her own bakery in Venice right after finishing school at Hogwarts. She had always dreamed of living there, and she was best at baking. A small, quaint bakery that brought in a lot of business. Aurora's father was in Italy on a business trip. Being an aura in the Ministry he was sent to many different places. It was on his evening off that they ran into each other. After a few awkward moments and some stuttering Derek convinced Anna to go on a date with him.
Two years later, after a long romantic fling Anna wound up pregnant. Not that she was upset. She was worried about what Derek would say. Her worries were unfound as he was elated to be having a child. Even if it was out of wedlock. He knew he loved Anna and asked her to marry him. A few months later they were married, and moved to Castle Combe. They were settled and happy, and not long after they were overjoyed to have a little girl added to their family.
Aurora was a happy baby. There wasn't anything wrong with her, besides the usual clumsiness of a toddler. Which carried over into her adult hood. Aurora was placed in Hufflepuff, a surprise since both her parents were in Ravenclaw. Though they didn't mind that. As long as she did well and was happy that, to them was all that mattered. She grew up with a small group of friends. All in various houses. Over all her school years were good. She didn't get into trouble and she got well enough grades.
Once out of Hogwarts Aurora moved to a small flat in Mousehole. She took after her parents love of being by the water. Her relationship with her parents was good, and at least twice a week she would visit her father at the Ministry. Dropping of bread and other goodies for him and his friends. When she wasn't in the bakery with her mother she was picking up shifts at St. Mungos as a medi-witch.
When Aurora is at the bakery she helps out her mother by making the doughs and lifting the heavier things. Using magic often to do it. She prefers to be in the back of the house, as that way she can't see anyone and freak out if they turn out to be a hot guy. She also has a habit of chatting away and rambling so putting her in the front of the shop would hold up business, rather than move it along. Only during slow hours or near closing, when they are cleaning does she appear in the front of the shop, to help her mother pick up and close up. And of course pack up any left over goods to go to the less fortunate, something Aurora started.
Aurora's job at St. Mungo's started over the summer of her Sixth year. She decided to volunteer. It wasn't a paid job, and she only worked a couple days a week, but it was enough to give her experience, even if it was just dealing with people in the ER and doing maintenance on others. It wasn't heavy work, but it was what she liked to do, and of course there was free baskets of food when she worked, thanks to her mother. When she finished school she applied for a real paying job. She got it. Only part time, but enough to allow her to live on her own. Plus she picked up shifts and filled for people. She mainly works in the ER checking people over and figuring out what is wrong with them, before handing them over to a doctor, or if it's not as major as it first seems, just fixing them herself.
Personality Description:
Pos: Kind/caring, Sincere, Sociable, Loyal, Imaginative, Intelligent
Neg: Nervous, Overly descriptive, Timid, Autophobia, Forgetful, clumsy
Aurora is nice and caring and loves to socialize, once she's gotten over being nervous and shy around some one. She doesn't mind being around strangers, in fact having autophobia she won't go into a place if there is no one around-the only exception to this being her flat, thus her kneazle Lumos counts. She doesn't like being alone and has a very strong fear of being alone, forever. Aurora is sincere, she doesn't lie, at least not often, so when she says something it's true usually. She's awful at lying. When she is nervous she usually winds up talking really fast, some times going off topic and on to random facts about baking, other cultures or some times she slips into speaking a different language. When she's on a tangent she can get pretty overly descriptive of whatever it is she's talking about and that could lead to far too much information.
Aurora is smart and imaginative, even though she is forgetful. She doesn't forget information, it's more like dates and people's names and faces. Mostly it's dates, unless they've been drilled into her head since she was a child. She usually carries around a small notebook for this reason, though it doesn't always help. Her imagination comes in handy when she's at the bakery and makes the bread into different shapes, to give them an edge over the other barkers. Though Aurora is clumsy, she doesn't let it stop her from doing what she loves, which is bake and of course, more over help those who need it.

Special Talents:
Polyglot-her mother speaks Italian and taught her over the years, and as she got older she became more interested in other languages. She can now speak French, Italian, and Greek. She can also understand some other languages, but not speak them. Currently she is learning Japanese.
Cultural studies- Aurora doesn't travel as much as she likes to. But she does read about all different cultures and loves to learn about them. She occasionally does go to the places she reads about, but she usually winds up helping her mother in her bakery. She is excellent at storing the information about cultures, which she usually talks about randomly.
RP Example:
Was it normal that she was reading yet another book on Ancient Greece? It's not like she cared, she loved to learn about all different cultures. She couldn't help it. She was just sitting at the small cafe down the street from her flat, peope were walking by, the ocean breeze was in her hair and she couldn't be more content. And more bored. Yes she loved to read about places, but she really wanted to go, visit the places, submerge herself into the enviornment. But that wasn't going to happen. She had picked up more shifts at St. Mungo's recently due to the attacks, and she was helping out at the bakery more because her mother was sick at the moment. Thankfully it was just a silly flu and it would be gone in a week.
But still she wished that she could explore the pyraminds, climb through the amazon, and tour the Coloseuim. Otherwise the information just fell flat. It was a tease too. She would see the pictures, read the history and yet, her she was stuck in Mousehole. "Another cup, Aurora?" A male voice asked. The blond looked up from her book and hummed in question. her gaze looked down at her cup and she frowned. When had she finished that cup? She didn't remember. "Yes please William. and, if it's not too much a chicken bacon ranch wrap with sweet potato fries also," she said smiling at the older man. She was of course known throughout the small sea side town. It was difficult not to be. She was always frequenting the local shops when she could, not wanting to be alone for too long if it could be helped. Even though Lumos was always around when she was, she still liked to people watch. Besides, there were some cute boys to look at, why pass that up. Of course she didn't have the guts to actually talk to any of them, and besides she was just some nerdy girl who would talk fast and forget to take a breath once she got nervous. So no thank you she'd just look. " Of course it's fine," William said before filling her tea cup and taking off.
