: General Information :
Name: Hestia Jones
Nickname(s): Hes, Tia, Jones
Age: Sixteen
Gender: Female
Blood Status: Pure-blood
Family: Herbert and Phyllis Jones nee Lawson [parents]
Birth date: December 4th, 1959
: Appearance :
Eye Color: Hestia’s eyes are a medium brown, somewhere in between chocolate and pecan.
Hair Color: Dark brown, although it can look slightly darker or lighter depending on the light and what season it is.
Hair Style: Although Hestia changes the length of her hair often, it is currently rather short; just long enough to pull into a ponytail. Hestia has bangs, and her hair is naturally straight but she often casts spells on it to make it wavy or even curly.
Height: 5’5”
Weight: 110 lbs
Build: Hestia is built short and thin. She is well muscled, especially for a female, which has something to do with her obsessive Quidditch playing. The girl is very athletic, especially so on a broom.
Clothing: Tia doesn’t much care about clothing. She usually goes for something casual, and although she does favor skirts you will rarely see her wearing one unless she’s positive that she won’t be doing any flying.
: Background :
Hometown: London, England
Personality: Hestia’s loud. The girl makes a lot of noise, regardless of whether or not her mouth is moving. If it’s not, then she’s tapping her foot or knocking over a lamp (accidentally, of course). Hestia can’t stand silence and it shows. Of course, her extreme volume gets annoying after awhile, but Tia has a very hard time shutting up, especially after a bottle of firewhiskey and a couple of chocolate frogs. She’s very outgoing and makes friends easily.
The girl’s a risk taker, unafraid to do things that other people wouldn’t. Hestia’s also known for breaking rules, which she feels are unnecessary and should be banished from the Earth. Tia will do a lot for a laugh, even if it is at her own expense. She enjoys pranking, although her pranks are never as flashy as the Marauder’s, and often less cruel. The girl’s rather brash and can easily be ‘one of the boys’. She actually finds that she gets along best with boys, being a bit of a tomboy herself. Despite this, Hestia is flirtatious and boy crazy.
Hes is a true Quidditch lover. She can rattle off Quidditch trivia when asked, and is actually a very good beater. Some find it surprising that she is so well muscled, but beaters need a considerable amount of arm strength, and Hestia works out a lot. She’s very athletic, and not just on a broom. She’s good at most sports, muggle or otherwise. Tia has a particularly nasty temper and is known around Hogwarts for spouting off at Slytherins over the littlest of things. She is painfully loyal to her friends and will stick up for them no matter what.
History: Hestia had a fairly average childhood. She was an only child in a pureblood family, and thus was pampered by her slightly snobby mother and father. As she grew older, it became apparent that Hestia was not the perfect Slytherin child they had envisioned. They still loved her, of course, and Hestia loved them back, but they never quite got over the disappointment. Hestia first did magic at the age of four, when, in a fit of rage, her toy broom began hitting her parents over the head.
When Hestia received her Hogwarts letter at the age of eleven, her parents were clinging to the last hope that she might be sorted into Slytherin. Unfortunately, it was not so. Her parents were even more disappointed when she began to fail her classes. Hes had never been too bright, and the fact that she didn’t really care about schoolwork made it even worse. Five years have gone by since she received her letter. Hestia is now in sixth year.
