Backstory

Wand -My wand is 10 and a half inches, cypress wood with a Thestral hair core. It's very flexible and doesn't seem as if it would break easily - a relief since I've broken quite a few wands already. I heard from a few other students that Thestral hair wands are rare, so I'll try to take extra good care of this one. The wood is a bit reddish for a cypress tree, and rather dark-colored. Mr. Ollivander told me that the wand was made from a branch as opposed to the trunk of the tree, which is why the grip isn't carved - it's natural, made from a bumpy wood knot in the branch that Mr. Ollivander sanded down. He hates me because I go through wands like Ron Weasley goes through chocolate frogs. My previous walnut (phoenix feather core) wand snapped right in half while I was practicing charms last month, and a few others I've held are vine with Dittany stalk (snapped), sycamore with dragon heartstring(combusted), yew with thunderbird feather(tried to play fetch with a werewolf, didn't go well), pine with Kelpie hair(stepped on by a house-elf -whoops), and Hawthorn with unicorn tail hair (can't find it, won't respond to Accio.)

I'm in my first year at Hogwarts, but my aunt is a professor here so I spent a LOT of time at Hogwarts before I was accepted as a student. I know every staircase, every painting... I almost feel like I know every brick in the potions classroom. My name is even etched under one of the desks!

Yes, I'm part of the pureblood Morgan family. I know, I know... Actors this, acting that, blah blah blah. I know my mom is famous, and both Mom and Dad want me to be onstage just like them. But to be honest, I'm tired of being followed. I'm tired of camera crews and journalists ruining every family trip. I barely made it out of Diagon Alley because of paparazzi. I'm so, so sick of it.

Hear me out - I really, really want to be an Auror. I know it's difficult and risky, and I'm prepared for it. All my professors say that I have good marks so far, and I know I won't let the Ministry down. It gets harder and harder every day to keep us hidden from Muggles especially with recent developments in Muggle technology, and I want to to do my part to keep us safe. I'm tired of acting and I'm tired of play-pretend. I want to be a part of something bigger.
