{Confident, Stubborn, Headstrong, Competitive, Ambitious, Flirtatious, Humorous, Extrovert }
Corinthia Scott knows what she wants out of life. Since she was old enough to understand just what her father did, she knew that she wanted to follow in his footsteps. Dedicated, determined, and with no small amount of ambition and talent, Thia knows it's only a matter of time before she accomplishes her goal. She has always had a firm belief in herself and her skills. It isn't arrogance, but rather pride and confidence in her abilities. She doesn't brag or unnecessarily show off, but when challenged to prove herself she has no problem doing just that. She's known for her competitive streak, and seems to have problems saying no to challenges.
A confident, headstrong girl with one hell of a stubborn streak, Thia isn't used to backing down. She'll stick to her guns no matter the pressure, often stubbornly refusing to admit when she's actually wrong too. She may actually realise when she's wrong, but a mixture of pride and disliking being proven wrong usually results in her refusing to admit as much. It usually takes a push from a friend and sucking up her pride for her to verbally admit as much.
Confidence has never been an issue for Thia, and neither has finding someone to talk with. She's a complete extrovert who surrounds herself with people whenever possible. She's a fun person to be around, and enjoys seeing her friends happy too. She isn't particularly concerned with being the centre of attention, she'll happily take a back seat when it's a friend's time to shine. She can be rather flirtatious too, usually playfully with friends, although she's been known to teasingly wink at a passing, shy student merely to see them blush.
Thia has a lively sense of humour and possesses a sharp tongue and quick wit, which only helps her with amusing jokes. Of course, a quick wit also helps with insults. Thia has her rivals, those that have insulted her or wronged her in some way over the years. Grudges are rarely forgotten, and, while Thia would never waste her time by going out of her way to antagonise another student, she will treat them with a disdainful glare and a snide comment in passing. She can be particularly cold to those that have deceived her.
SHORT BIOGRAPHY:
The tale of Jonathan Scott and Zelda Flamel's meeting is one often recounted at family gatherings. Sent across the Atlantic ocean in search of an American criminal, Jonathan's path brought him to the lair of a Common Welsh Green dragon. Zelda Flamel, a vet who specialised in dragons, was working on vaccinating the dragon for fear of it contracting a disease currently running rampant in the British dragon populations. A series of miscommunications led to the early awakening of the temporarily knocked out dragon. Luckily the pair escaped with only minor burns and, after capturing his criminal, Jonathan took Zelda on a date as a way of apologising. Jonathan was an American muggle-born wizard who worked as an Auror for the American Wizarding Government. Zelda Flamel (a distant relation of the famed Nicholas Flamel) was a British witch from a pureblood family.
They married and settled in the United States, giving birth to Corinthia Jane Scott two years later and another daughter, Ophelia Scott, five years after Thia was born. Early life was enjoyable for the young witch. Her parents spoiled her, and her muggle grandparents never missed the chance to do the same. Her mother instilled a love of animals in her, while her father taught her right from wrong. Thia still remembers watching her father go off to work and promising herself that one day she would become an Auror just like him.
Thia has never been one to give up when she's set herself a goal. Needless to say she's worked hard to get good grades and learn the needed skills to become an auror. Yet, as hard as she's worked she has also made time to enjoy her teenage years. Her time at Esterview has been incredibly enjoyable and she's certain the friends she has made will stay with her for years. She's a member of the school dueling team and her house's quidditch squad.
MISCELLANEOUS:
+ Thia plays chaser on house Terra's quidditch team.
+ Wants to become an Auror
