History
Matilda Faye Nordstrom is a sassy girl with red hair and blue eyes. She is the only child to her parents, who tried for years, suffering losses, but finally having their precious little girl. As one is, being the only child, she is always right and always in charge. She was born and raised in Rye, East Sussex to a Squib father and Witch mother. Thomas, a professor, at the local college and Dotty a stay at home Mum live a modest life, but want for nothing. They have a happy home filled with love and laughter and the occasional magical spell to keep the garden growing. Dotty, only used magic when Thomas wasn’t home, since magic was a sore subject in the house.
Matilda, or Tilly as she was sometimes called, has known about magic from an early age and started showing signs at the age of 5. Simple things like flowers changing colors or a bloom exploding into petal confetti when she was holding it and angry. While at first her father seemed excited about her new talents, as time has gone on, he has shown resentment for her magical abilities.
School has always been good for Matilda. She made friends easily and hates reading. Science was her best subject especially if they were doing anything outside in the garden. History was boring, but she listened {not really} because it was totally important. She was excited to actually learn about important and interesting things when she got to Hogwarts.
Her first few years were spent learning the basics and getting her footing in the castle. She immediately found a love for the greenhouse, often spending her free time there, tending to the plants and attempting to grow new species. She loved maintaining the plants for the Infirmary, knowing that healing plants was important for the castle.
Matilda has a smart mouth and a sassy nature. She wasn’t afraid to tell you what she thought, oftentimes speaking up when not warranted, or not wanted. As a pureblood girl, she didn’t follow the same strict standards that some families expected.
