Personality


    On the surface, Windell seems like a quiet, "in the background" kind of student. They don't do much to help this observation with how often they find themself in the Library reading. Below that they are quite the peculiar social butterfly. As socially active as they may push to be, they don't have many qualities expected of someone who interacts with others often. They are blunt, sometimes harshly honest, and struggle with initiate conversation with anything other than a greeting or a question. In conversation, they tend to only ask common questions like "How are you?" and "How was class?". This could be due to the fact that pretty much all of the few social skills they have come from books and the leftover skills come from observation. As much as they have come to enjoy friendship and talking to others, they have trouble keeping up conversations and often don't know what to say to fill in silences once they have used up their queue of questions. Being social was never their strong suit and they often keep to themself when no one seems up for a conversation.

    When they do pipe up and speak with others, while nice, they are extremely calculative. Windell picks and chooses their words carefully, reasons ranging from hoping to evoke or avoid certain reactions to trying not to offend anyone involved in the conversation. This often makes it hard for others to get to know them, some people even accusing them of "hiding things." While that isn't completely false, they don't think of it that way. Sometimes Windell deems holding back or revealing information at certain times to be more advantageous than letting everyone know every little thing on their mind. This habit is very cautiously kept to themself because they are well aware that some people would view it as manipulative or crude.

    Windell doesn't enjoy the idea of being an 'open book.' If someone asks them a personal question out of the blue they will occasionally play it off or give an indirect answer, though this varies from person to person. They struggle with the idea that if (and when) someone knows everything there is to know about them, they will grow bored and eventually cease interaction with them. When confronted with general questions, if they see fit to do so, they will graciously answer them with questions. While they don't mind sharing notes or giving someone an answer to a homework questions, they often prefer that people figure things out for themselves or come to their own conclusions. They believe that direct answers sully the "learning experience."

Background


    Barbra Locke married Harold Ide soon after Windell turned three and her daughter, Willow, was born. After some time, Harold came across the fact that she was a witch (her occasionally using magic to do chores was a big tip-off), but he informed her that he didn't care as long as she gave up magic-use for good. She, feeling in debt to him for not leaving her then and there, accepted the condition and pursued an "average" life.

    Before his eighth birthday, Windell's childhood wasn't that spectacular. Their mother, Barbra, was banking on them not being a wizard in order to give her controlling husband the "normal life" he demanded. After strange activities about the house began happening more frequently leading up to their 11th birthday and Windell setting them off all too often for his younger sister's entertainment and finding that Windell received an invitation to Hogwarts, Harold told her to disown them. When she refused, he promptly divorced her.

    In their younger years, they were a quiet child that didn't stand out much in comparison to their hyper, sociable younger sister, Willow. She was always active and talkative in her mannerisms and seemed as if she would have a bright and prosperous future. She and Windell were as close as they came, always playing around and having fun, usually sharing in punishments as well as a fair number of secrets, too.

    During the summer of Windell's Third year, Willow was a victim of a fatal hit-and-run that they were witness to. Following her funeral, Windell found that a number of people who had attended started to act as if Willow never existed. Like her life had meant nothing to them. As a result of this, Windell's growing anger and frustration caused them to start up their own form of "grieving" that they still can't let go of to this day. It worries their mother terribly, but she hopes that it will continue to be an obsession that isn't detrimental to Windell’s health.

    In Windell’s time attending he continued to have a fairly average high school experience, except with magic. They dealt with their fair share of bullies and put them in their place when the time felt right; slipping their important assignments in the trash when helping a teacher with grading or casting a memory charm on them before a big event or final, among other things.

    Family (In-Depth Coverage)

      Barbra Locke Mother. An Indian witch living in Britain, Barbra is has a growing paranoia of sending her child "too many" letters. Windell is very close to their mother, her being their only immediate family. She is extremely talented in the field of charms and has passed some of the knowledge to Windell. In Windell and Willow's earlier years, she did many charms for them and their entertainment, including charming one of their spare rooms to have no gravity in support of Willow's dream profession (and then charming the door to only appear to herself, Windell, and Willow, fearing that her (ex)husband may come across it).

      Willow Locke Sister, Deceased. Windell's younger sibling that passed in a hit-and-run accident. She was a very active and uppity girl. They were very close when she was alive and they are very spiteful that a lot of people swept her death under the rug after the funeral. She always tried to help Windell out of their shell and they often helped her with her homework. Her biggest dream was to be the first Astronaut Hair-Stylist, making claims that doing hair without gravity could invite vast possibilities for unique styles. Windell let her style their hair for fun often.

      Lenno ??? Biological father, werebouts unknown. Windell's Native American muggle father. Their mother doesn't speak about him and neither Windell nor Willow ever bothered to ask.

      Harold Ide Step-father, whereabouts unknown. Windell's English muggle step-father whom they never had a remarkable relationship with. After putting two-and-two together and figuring that there was a chance that one of Barbra's kids would turn out to also use magic, he was always wary of them and accordingly distant. He deemed it "evil and unnatural" and wanted nothing to do with it and separated himself from them when he felt his opinion was challenged.
