Appearance
PB: Alex Sandor
Detailed Description: Frankie is a waif of a girl. Standing at 5'5 and weighing 110lbs. A combination of a bad smoking habit and forgetfulness means she hardly eats, giving her a frail look. She inherited a flare for style and casual chic from living so close to Paris, and her mother. She's rarely seen with make up or her hair styled, she prefers to be fresh faced and wearing her brown hair down around her shoulders. Frankie has a small tattoo on her ribcage, a simple red heart with 'Holden' written underneath. She still speaks with a French accent, her voice is soft and whispery.

Dislikes: Driving her car, fur, vapid girls
Quirks: Always carries a notebook around which she will mysteriously write in mid-conversation
Secrets: - Has a tattoo. It's only visible when she's topless, it's a homage to her late cat Holden, who was given to her to smooth the transition of moving to America.
- Resents her Father because of his insistence that she be married by the time she's 18.
What’s in your characters pockets?: A pack of cigarettes, a lighter, her notebook and a pen and her wand.
Strengths: - Has a knack for writing poems and lyrics
- Can tell you the meaning of most words, she's like a walking dictionary.
- Finds it easy to learn how to play an instrument.

- Too proud for her own good sometimes
- Is incredibly passionate,to a fault. Her passion can make her blind.
- Always feels cold, no matter what.

Weakest subject in school: Herbology. (She stubbornly tries to keep plants alive but they always seem to die. Her dorm is like a plant graveyard.)
One thing he/she can't live without: Cigarettes.

Detailed personality: To strangers, Francois on the surface, could be perceived as being aloof. To a degree, this is accurate, as she tends not to show muchof herself to strangers, a trait she unwillingly picked up from her parents. She's quite mysterious, having perfected her uninterested, nonchalant expression. She only speaks when she has something interesting to say, and that can lead to silences in conversations which others may find awkward. However, to those who know her, Frankie is deep thinking, a philosopher and incredibly passionate about what she is interested in. She has a deep love for nature, and gets emotional when talking about the destruction of the planet. Coming from a wasteful family, she is incredibly conscious about recycling, to the point of obsessiveness that drives her roommate mad.

A love of words and poetry, Francois has been known to create epic poems for those she thinks of as friends, and tends to wear her heart on her sleeve for them. In relationships, she can be almost manic, finding if difficult to restrain herself and not scare the other person away. If she gets her heart broken she will cry for days, but she is also very fickle, and able to move on suddenly. Her whole life revolves around being a tortured artist, which can be detrimental. She usually forgets to eat dinner or wear deodorant because she is too wrapped up in affairs of the heart.

Personal History: Francois Prideaux was born in Versailles, France. A city just outside of Paris for affluent families. Francois's father and mother were wed when they were 17 and 18, uniting two old wizarding families, arranged by their wealthy parents. When Florence was 19 she gave birth to Julian, Frankie's older brother and a year later, Francois herself. Frankie's mother and father embraced the marriage in different ways, although Florence would not dare to divorce her husband, she certainly resented the loveless marriage their parents had forced upon them. Augustus on the other hand considered the family his duty to keeping the family name alive.

Her and Julian were inseperable as children, enjoying running around in the grounds of their house, listening to fairytales Florence would make up. Although Florence tried to keep their childhood as normal as possible, the children were still required to attend etiquette classes, afternoon tea and expected to be seen and not heard when Augustus was around. Frankie and Julian were home-schooled together, along with other Magical children from their neighbourood.

Life was good, the house where the Prideaux family resided was full of amazing smelling, dusty old books, where Francois developed a love of reading and the garden was vast, with birds and pond life to explore. Bad news came when Francois was 10, the family would be moving to America, specifically New Orleans, where Florence believed her wedding planning business could take off, she didn't tell anyone she also hoped it would be the chance for her children that she never had, to escape the traditional French wizarding system which caused her so much pain. New Orleans was where a couple of years earlier, her brother Jaque had relocated to, and he was always raving about the place. Frankie was heartbroken to be leaving her books and country, her only solace came in the form of a kitten her parents gave her when they arrived. She named the kitten Holden Caulfield, after her favourite book character (although she hardly understood it at age 10).

Francois was enrolled and accepted into school in time for the new school year, given extensive English lessons in the weeks leading up to the beginning of term and promptly shipped off to school. It was scary, to be both around so many children not as well-off as herself, but also in a foreign country. A thirst for reading meant Frankie soon grasped English from reading and her grades were always above average. Graduating into the Upper Academy, Francois had become more than just "the French girl" around the school, carving a niche as a bookworm and general sensitive poet type.

When visiting home her Father became increasingly anxious about Francois, who wasn't displaying the traits of a lady willing to settle down and carry on the family name, but rather had grand ideas of becoming a novelist. Hehad doubts about the choice of moving to America, how American children were disrespectful and disloyal to their families, and always sent Francois to her Grandparent's house back in Versailles for the summers, where instead of being instilled with proper behaviour, Frankie would spend the summers moving from boyfriend to boyfriend and generally hell raising in a very quiet way. Florence is secretly proud.
