Personality

Paisley could be seen as a mild version of Luna Lovegood. In a sense where Paisley has a lot of knowledge about different things that most people wouldn't care to much about. Paisley is one of the biggest bookworms you'll ever meet. Though the books she reads aren't for school or to gain any practical knowledge, Paisley's focus is on muggle or wizarding fiction stories. Especially old famous myths and legends. Paisley is one of those people who have an amazing ability to tell a story and not bore people. Whenever she tells a story, you can see how into the characters Paisley gets and often makes refrence to them in her conversations.

While Paisley isn't exactly 'weird,' there are some things that you wouldn't see on a lot of other students. For instance, Paisley likes to have a few strands of her hair a different color, mostly blue and pink. But it's not something she changes from time to time, she's had those colors in her hair since her 3rd year. Despite that, Paisley still has an ability to make people listen to her, one of the main reasons that she was made a Prefect because they knew that a lot of students respected and took her seriously.

When it comes to how she lives in the world, Paisley can be seen as both extroverted and introverted. It depends on the situation and who else is around. When Paisley is comfortable with her surroundings, she's seen more as outgoing and goofy. But if you put her in a position where she doesn't know anyone or people she doesn't know all that well, Paisley tends to be more soft spoken but still friendly. At Hogwarts, she's grown up a bit to where if she doesn't know someone she'll still try and say hi and be nice. When it comes to house rivals, Paisley doesn't believe in it, unless there's a Quidditch match. She'll want to be friends with everyone and she's made it her own personal goal to befriend a Slytherin.

History

Three years before Paisley was born, two strangers met at a social get together and it was love at first sight. Lysander Howell was there to visit an old friend that had moved back to town. Lysander is one of the biggest History professor at a large University. There he met Elizabeth Weeks, a Photographer who was there to take pictures at the big event. The two met at the party and had hardly been seperated since.

Lysander and Elizabeth were married a year after they met and soon after they were blessed with their first child. How they came about the name Paisley was that Elizabeth didn't want to know the sex of the baby, she wanted it to be a surprise but Lysander didn't want to wait to pick out a name when the child was born so they came up with different unisex names until they came across Paisley and instantly fell in love with the name. Paisley Dawn Howell was born on March 1st and two years later, Elizabeth gave birth to another child, a baby boy named Alexander Howell, both children born into a typical pleasent brittish family.

It was when Paisley was five years old that Elizabeth and Lysander noticed something strange about their daughter. Paisley was forced to get a haircut and have a night of many tantrums, she awoke the next morning that her hair had grown back! There were other strange things going on in the Howell household and the parents honestly didn't realize what was going on. They were clueless until one day when Paisley was 10 years old, she received a letter from a school none of them had ever heard before. In the letter it explained that Paisley was in fact, a witch. Even though both parents were muggle, the letter explained that sometimes if there were a few witches or wizards mixed in the family at some point, it can often come back even if the parents weren't magical. Paisley's parents surprisingly took this very well and was proud to have such a special child.

Like most of the first years, Paisley was extremly nervous, more so than some because she had no idea of the world she was getting into. During the sorting, she learned that there were four different houses and from the whispers of the students, she learned that Slytherin wasn't the most favorite of houses and Paisley prayed softly that she wouldn't be sorted there. When it was her turn, Paisley sat on the stool for a while before the hat finally shouted out 'Gryffindor!' The girl found herself sitting next to other first years smiling shyly to them and making some small talk through out the night.

During the years, Paisley grew to be a good student but the girl has a habit of putting off her homework and focus more on the fun things in life. Paisley's biggest hobby would be writing short stories and her friends will often find her alone, day dreaming. Mostly her thoughts being about her characters and coming up with good plots. It wasn't until her 5th year that she finally took on some actual responsibility. Paisley was very surprised when she was made Prefect. She couldn't imagine other students taking orders from her but she soon found out that a lot of the students took her seriously, possibly because she has a good way with words and able to talk to people without making them feel stupid or feeling like they're being treated like a baby.
