Physical Description: > Big, doe eyes peered out-- their unusual colour a mix of gray greens and blues. Pretty, plump lips gave the impression of constant surprise, a face one wouldn't dream of hurting. Dark brown hair often fell into her eyes, gloss and shine outmatched. School uniform did little justice to her frame, though those long legs were often on display. Yellow and black tie laid loose over her breast, blouse unbuttoned and untucked, for comfort. Skirt lay slightly askew, though her high socks were always in proper order.
Personality Outline: Bambi had always been caring, even as a child. When her mother died, this only amplified. She dreamed of being a doctor, or a firefighter, or a policeman. She never shied away from challenge, and certainly never backed down from what she believed in. Unfalteringly loyal to her family and her ideals, she believes in the good of all people, and that people really can change. She also believes that things must take their natural course, that change can't be forced. In the end, she understands a wisdom most don't until their old age, and seeks only to aid the world, as seen in her aspirations towards Healing.

History: When Bambi was eight years old, her mother died. That may not be the brightest method of beginning an origin story, but that is our beginning. Her mother was a stay-at-home mom up until this point, and working part-time as a makeup consultant on weddings etcetera. It was a traumatic event, a car crash, that shocked and disturbed her father. With very little family left, Steven was forced to raise the child on his own, challenging his parenting skills and personal strength in the process.
Growing up on the coast, aside from losing her mother, Bambi had a relatively nice childhood. She could go to the ocean, go to school, all the normal things kids could experience. When she received her letter to Magera, the Canadian Wizarding school, her father thought it was a joke. It wasn't until three weeks later, when a man came to her door in a bright fuchsia robe and a blonde beard, did he finally agree. With no previous knowledge of the wizarding world, little Bambi was thrown to the wolves. She was given a guide, another girl in her year, who only teased her of being a 'mudblood', but taught her all she must know about being a first year. Desperate to use this chance to her advantage, Bambi delved into her studies. Bullied outside of class, she stuck to her house common room, or with the magical creature professor, or with the nurses. She became something of a school pet, looked down upon from her peers, but adored by the staff.
Finally, the bullying became too much. After a spat with another student in fourth year, after the other child insulted her mother, Bambi cursed the other student. She broke this other students legs, and zipped her mouth shut. Of course, she was expelled. When she explained all of this to her father, who found he could understand his daughter less and less every day, she was shipped to Hogwarts. Her grandmother lived in Whitby, in Ireland, so Etienne thought it would be the perfect escape.
Horrified by what she had done, as she had never been a violent child, Bambi took this as a fresh start.
