Weaknesses (3+):
- prefers solitude or to be surrounded by animals, and as a result, doesn't have many friends
- not very good at defensive magic, which worries her, especially taking care of her mother
- grows attached to people that are kind to her, and often mistakes politeness for interest
Character Description:
Miss Quishby is not an imposing person, by any means. Her short stature and mousey demeanor were only useful for staying unnoticed, and she is often overlooked in all aspects of life. When it comes to her job, though, people are forced to notice her, and sometimes it's a sharp reminder of how much she really enjoys being forgotten.
Personality Outline:
Tabitha is a very quiet person, and is more than happy to be alone. She has a tendency to adhere to routine, and has a hard time trying new things. At home she is very happy and shows it, but around others she seems to be a very boring person.
Background
Mother: Marybeth Quishby (Sullivan), 58, unemployed
Father: Joseph Quishby, 62, construction and landscaping
Siblings: ---
Country of Origin: England
Heritage: Halfblood
History: Tabitha's father was a muggle working in London, and was never really present during her childhood. Her mother, a witch talented in the art of healing and excellent with charms, began to teach her from a very young age, long before schooling started, and encouraged her to explore everything and leave no question unanswered. Their home was in a shabby part of town, but they were not exactly poor, merely frugal. Neighborhood animals came to say hello almost daily, and Tabitha developed a strong love of the unquestioning companionship of her winged and four legged friends.
Her time at Hogwarts was relatively uneventful, even for a Ravenclaw. She excelled in Herbology and Charms, but struggled with her other classes for most of her time at school. This was partly due to puberty and partly to her parents getting a divorce. Upon graduating, the reason for her mother's frugality became clear, and they now live together in comfort on the outskirts of Hogsmeade. Tabitha picked up a job in town to supplement their comfort, as well as give herself some time alone with her thoughts.
