History:Alexandra Miller Eelanor was born August 24, 1995 to Ted Eelanor- muggle- and Susan Eelanor- squib. Life before Hogwarts was led in a simple manner that often lacked the excitement of many of her contemporaries. The Eelanor family lived as pleasant an existence as they could manage, moving past whatever lack of funds they had. While Susan knew of the magical world, she'd long ago left when it'd been decided she'd have no magical talent choosing to leave the magical world and her family in order to live a regular life as a muggle. It was there that she eventually met the simplistic Ted who while a muggle managed to make her happy. She never told him about her life before there and Ted never cared. At least, until their daughter got the letter.
Life was a flurry of changes then, built completely upon Susan explaining the wizarding world to her surprised- though understanding- husband. Susan was excited to see her daughter becoming what she couldn't have been and Ted, while confused, supported her completely. Through Hogwarts Alexandra excelled, displaying an especial aptitude against the dark arts and eventually in Occlumens by training of her own private study with teachers. Upon graduation, with her grades at the levels they were, she went into Auror training. At that point, there was much of nothing that gave her reason to be specifically devoted to that career- just a calling. Through training she once again excelled, her devotion to training clear in nearly all aspects. Hopefully devoted to everything about her job- it was clear from the beginning just how much of a work-a-holic the tiny witch could be.
She made it through training with honors and continued work as an auror, even managing to make it through recent events.* One year has passed since the event and while on the surface she remains the same as ever... there seems to be moments where she just doesn't quite seem the same. For the moment she lives in a well-protected loft near the ministry.
Personality: It'd be easy to wonder just how hufflepuff Alexandra Eelanor managed her way into the dangerous world of being an auror. Quiet and well meaning, Kind and utterly giving, she has never been one to dwell on the pains of the past, or hover too frequently over the negative that has seemed to swoop down onto the world like carrion birds readying for a slaughter. Instead, she manages to keep to her cheery disposition when prompted. However- when she is focused or otherwise engaged her attentions become completely devoted to work and everything about it. Her survival instincts are strangely exceptional, making up for her lack of physical strength.
There is, however, a sort of oddity about her- while she is pleasant and hopeful and charismatic to be around, there are times where she diminishes into an almost maddened state- demonstrating both Obsessive compulsive behavior in small matters and a delusional attachment with saving people of all degrees.(especially, it has been noted, adolescents.)
A notoriously hard worker, she does everything she possibly can to heal injuries and illnesses of others she meets To most, Alexandra hardly looks the sort that could do anything besides tend to the most delicate of duties- but, as shown by the fact that she has survived past auror training, there is certainly more to her than meets the eye. She refuses to give up on her life and the lives of those around her and is, surprisingly, stubborn and strong willed- she may not look it, but Alexandra wont back down from what she believes nor will she settle for anything less than what she believes in. For all of her resilience in work and auror related affairs however, she is absolutely flabbergasted and ill-suited in affairs of a more intimate variety. In dating she could maybe be defined as coy and in friendships she is always awkward. It's not so much that she's not friendly or even ill-suited for friends and beyond; it's just she's almost forgotten just how to go about it.
Of course she does at times miss life as it had been without the constant worry of being murdered for her position, she rarely lets this glimmer through. She is however generally satisfied with things, never once offering even the beginning of a complaint. Well respected, well liked- Alexandra's personality is all around goodness and kindness in a world that seems to be heading to hell.
There is something of a slight oddness, however, about Alexandria. Generally, she's pleasant and normal- but put into high conflict situations, she can react on a very different scope- from insanely fearful to almost uncanny amount of calm and compulsion. Generally, this is written off as something of a psychological result to events that have currently remained unmentioned in general knowledge.
Appearance: Alexandra is at best described delicate appearing. With a small, wispy frame that is far from the standard for many women; she's just at 5 feet 3 inches and weighs in at just 100 pounds. Pale with light brown hair, she doesn't necessarily always take the hardened look that many aurors take. Far from vain or financially well off, she tends to maintain her appearance simply; no make up, no fancy styling to her hair beyond pulling just enough back to keep it from her eyes, and a wardrobe that consists mainly of simple robes and wizarding garments.
Visually, she's far from astounding. She's got a quirkiness to her appearance that manages a look of her own and with brown eyes- at base.. she's far from a stand up knock out. However- it's the manner in which she carries herself that manages to give her a look all her own. Confident yet reticent, Emotional yet withdrawn- Alexandra is far from the standard when it comes to life.
