At first, Aurora may come off as rather reserved and suspicious due to her past (see backstory), but there is much more underneath her many carefully wrapped layers to those willing to make the endeavor. With the right person, she freely opens up and lets her free spirit and gentle nature shine. Her fearless loyalty and witty intelligence make her a true, constant friend to the end.

<summary>It's quite long, though ;)</size></summary>
Aurora Lovecraft has only recently been introduced to the wonderful wizarding world, but already she is an exceptionally fast and efficient leader of the magical ways. Long story short, she was mysteriously raised by Muggles through what they call the “foster care system”, as she had been (and still is) deprived of the identity of the witch and wizard who were (or perhaps are) her parents. Growing up quite alone in the Muggle world, she hadn’t the faintest clue that the strange energy residing inside of her was very much magical, nor of the existence of this entire realm of magic that we all know and love. Aurora never stayed with the same family for more than a few months at a time, if even that. When she was younger and had not yet realized the utter difference between herself and others, a childless couple would gladly take her home, expecting to care for a normal, cheerful, outgoing little girl. Instead, Aurora would be promptly returned the next week by that same couple, who now refused to even glance in her direction. For it was indeed true that, just like many magical children, she had always been able to perform certain uncanny feats from a young age, especially while experiencing rather intense emotions. Not knowing anything about magic itself, she never had an explanation for herself or others in the slightest concerning that which frightening so many away from her.
As a naturally curious girl, Aurora was forever torn between her thrilled fascination for and yearn to explore these gifts’ limits and her growing fear of what others would think and do to her. Her secret desire for the one thing she never had – acceptance – won her over, causing her to eventually put a damper on her gifts as she grew older, at least when her ever-changing foster parents and others were around. Eventually, there was no one left willing to take her in – this time not from hearing the unnerving reports of her “feats” from previous caretakers, but from her seemingly withdrawn behavior which did not satisfy prospecting parents.
Through the years, Aurora made the choice to isolate herself more and more from everyone around her, to whom she appeared increasingly reserved and deathly silent. In fact, few could even coax a word out of her mouth for months at a time. It was as if she had removed herself from the outside world entirely to search within herself for the source of the “calling” that she felt whispering to her, holding out its hand to lead her into another distant world she so frequently dreamed about as she gazed into the stars, night after night…
That is, until Tula volunteered to foster her. Tula was an ancient, but quite eccentric woman who appeared not a day older than 150. Due to her age and various accounts of “odd” behavior, she had been placed at the very bottom of the volunteer list for years. As soon as she laid eyes upon her, Tula had insisted that Aurora be left in her care, a request which social services had refused for months – that is, until they unfortunately had no one else to leave Aurora with. When she came to live with Tula, it was as if the dark curtain that had clouded her entire world for years had finally been lifted. Tula revealed herself as a witch, telling Aurora that she was also one. She claimed she saw a vast mine of talent in Aurora and made it her personal duty to make sure she was immediately sent off to Hogwarts, lest her gifts go to waste when they very much needed to be tamed and nurtured. Tula taught Aurora everything the girl knew about the wizarding world up until she was able to experience it for herself. It surprised Aurora that the entire revelation was not a complete shock to her – as if it she had somewhat expected it, like she had always known. And perhaps in a way, she had. Nevertheless, she received her Hogwarts Acceptance Letter on that glorious, enchanting day when her life was henceforth changed forever.
SORTING CEREMONY: During Aurora’s sorting ceremony, the sorting hat took quite a while longer than everyone else to make the all-important decision. It kept mumbling thoughts like “hmm…very intelligent, but quite the brave one…definitely determined and ambitious…but a good heart..” But Aurora had kept thinking that all she wanted was to prove herself here at Hogwarts, that she truly belonged and was worthy of the robes that she wore. Nevertheless, after exactly 5 minutes and 2 seconds of a hefty debate (rendering a true hatstall), the sorting hat finally chose to place Aurora in Slytherin over Ravenclaw, and she couldn’t be more proud. After all this time, she had finally found home, the belonging she had always dreamed about. She had grasped that hand from the beautiful night sky.
CURRENT: Aurora is now studying in her 5th year at Hogwarts and thoroughly enjoys all of her classes, but has a talent for Potions and Transfiguration, a love for Astronomy, and pays special attention in D.A.D.A. But not as much enthusiasm is placed towards Divination and History of Magic. She would much rather learn hands-on. Aurora is also a Chaser on the Slytherin Quidditch team, a position she holds much pride in and takes very seriously. And has a bunch of fun in ;)
You can usually find Aurora wherever the action and adventure is, or quietly reading/studying in the library immersed in her own splendid world, or perhaps studying the school rules to discover the smartest ways to “bend” them. ;)</size>
