Biography :
Alexandria Riddle was born to Pure-blood wizard ,Brian Riddle, and Muggle-born witch, Anastasia Hadley. As the only child, Alexandria was the most prized possession of her parents.
She grew up without knowing any of her relatives. Her mom’s side of the family considered their family as ‘freaks’ and dad’s side of the family called her dad a ‘traitor’. This, though, didn’t faze them and Alexandria grew up in a happy environment at Godric’s Hollow.
Being alone at home for most of the time (her parents worked at the Ministry of Magic) she had the company of books alone. Books turned out to be Alexandria’s best friend forever.
She showed the first signs of having magical blood when she was about five. She had been reading out the ‘Tales of Beedle the Bard’ to her father, when she had abruptly stopped and her eyes had glazed over. ‘Death’ she had said, and coming out of the trance continued reading. That night the Riddles received an owl telling them that Brian Riddle’s mother had passed away.
That night Alexandria’s parents realized that their daughter could see into the future. The ability began to develop as years passed by and thus Divination became the strongest subject for her.
As years passed by Alexandria started counting the number of days left for her to receive the Letter. Her parents had told her about Hogwarts when she had been seven. Since then, she had read all the books which mentioned the name ‘Hogwarts’, over and over again.
Her eleventh birthday came and passed by and still no letter arrived. She waited eagerly at the doorstep everyday but to no avail. Sometimes she would wait throughout the night at the porch steps, with Hogwarts: A History to keep her company. Her parents told her that it was not yet the time for the school administration to be sending out letters but Alexandria could be downright stubborn.
In the second week of August did her letter arrive. She had been sitting on the porch steps reading Magical Beasts and Where to Find them, when she heard the fluttering of wings and a letter fell on her book. It had the Hogwarts seal on it.
Alexandria stared at the letter and whispering, ‘I am coming, Hogwarts.’ ran into the house to show the letter to her parents.

ADDITIONAL INFORMATION
House request             : I’d really like to be sorted into Ravenclaw. I have                                 
                                         always felt as if I’d really belong there.
Personality                  :
Alexandria is the kind of girl who simply hates to be criticized. She believes that she is always right and way better than her classmates in academics. Her biggest flaw is her pride over her intelligence.
She also houses a hatred for the ‘dumbos’ who, she believes, should at least try to get decent grades rather than flunking in all the classes.
On weekends, Alexandria would be found reading books from the Restricted Section and ‘expanding her knowledge about the magical world.’
Being a bookworm, it is hard for her to make friends. She would admit sometimes that she would probably take on a troll than go out and make friends.

APPEARANCE:
Alexandria hates the way she looks. She has jet-black curly hair and ocean-blue eyes. Add that to the high-set cheekbones and she is the example of what her mom calls ‘divine beauty.’
As a result of her appearance people take her to be a bimbo which she is definitely not. In order to play down her ‘beauty’, she charms her eyebrows to overgrow and her forehead to be covered in pimples. But the charms wear off in a matter of seconds. It’s as if her body is telling her, ‘No can do. You are cursed to look like it.’

SAMPLE ROLEPLAY-
Alexandria strolled around the school grounds with ‘A Magical Quest’ clutched in her hands. She finally had a break, even though it was for forty-five minutes, from academics. So far, she had managed to be at the top in all of her classes, except Quidditch. For some reason she hated the games in the same way she hated sexists.
Finding a nice spot under a tree, she opened the book to read.  She had barely read a few lines when she felt something tickle her back. Something….which had whiskers. She shrieked and stood up only to find a rat scuttling around the tree bark.
‘Stupid rodent.’ she cursed, shutting the book. On examining the rat she concluded that it was too ‘posh-looking’ to be wild. It probably belonged to a student.
There was no way she was going to pick it up with it running around as if it had had a serious doze of caffeine. Pointing her wand at the rat, she muttered a spell which made it unconscious. Picking it up she made her way straight to Herbology classroom, hoping to find the teacher.
As she reached there, she found this fifth year guy stumbling around the flowers looking as if he was having a really bad day.
‘You blasted rat! Where are you?’ she heard him shouting.
Alexandria stared at the unconscious rodent in her hand. Maybe it belonged to him. She considered calling out to him but then he did this inhuman sneeze which was just….gross. And then he continued grossing her out by wiping his nose on his sleeve.
That’s when he suddenly turned to look at her and in a ‘pretend manly’ voice  asked, ‘Can I help you with something? It is not polite to stare.’
That was the moment. Should she just throw the rat at his face or should she give him an answer which he would never be able to understand?
She chose neither. Going up to him, she thrusted the rat into his hand and with a flick of her hair, trying to look a snobby as possible, walked away.
