Biography:
Eden was born on October 13th, 1943, on a particularly wet and foggy night to Oliva and Jamison Sparrow. For a while Eden was a happy and well behaved child up until she got a little older and her father was around less. Coincidently this was around the time her mother announced her second pregnancy. As her mother neared her due date, her father abandoned them altogether.
She was eight years old when her mother went in to deliver her new baby sister. But her mother never came back not even her new sister who both were lost to complications. Eden was devastated and pleaded not to go to a foster home. She convinced a social worker to contact her father, who no longer wanted to be in the picture but agreed to sign his rights over to his sister and brother in law who lived in Godric’s Hallow. She was excited but then figured out her aunt and uncle were not the wealthiest couple. At only age eight Eden would go out and cause mischief. She would prank shop keepers, then steal food from them to provide food for her household, but convinced her Aunt and Uncle that she’d gotten odd jobs around town. When they discovered her lies, they kept her inside and she grew very lonely, turning to art to keep herself sane. She discovered a new talent by doing this art, but still felt extremely lonely, she addressed her aunt and uncle about this and they decided that, if she was accepted, she could attend Hogwarts as long as she kept her nose clean.

→ SAMPLE ROLEPLAY.
You come across one of these posts on the site. Please select one & reply as your character. Remember, you can only roleplay your own character's actions, not Evangeline's or Hugh's.

Option I:

The dungeons. A place eleven-year-old Evangeline had not yet travelled since her arrival at Hogwarts.

A place she really was just fine with not knowing; but it was too late. The dare had been accepted, even if it had been done in fear of being kicked out of Gryffindor, like the older girls had said she would because Gryffindors were supposed to be brave.

The air changed instantly when she hit the main corridor of the dungeons. The dampness was almost too much for her and she instinctively took a deep breath to avoid the sensation of being suffocated. There was also a sour burning smell which Evangeline assumed was from many, many Potions lessons.

Further and further she walked, her steps so slow and gentle they made no noise against the stone walls and floor. The feeling that she wasn't alone crept up her spine and raised the tiny hair on the back of her neck. Shivering, Evangeline wrapped her arms around herself. Suddenly, she missed the warmth and comfort of the Gryffindor common room. The fire was always going and it made her feel at ease.

Why had she let those girls talk her into this? She was only eleven, she didn't have to be brave. Surely the Headmistress would not kick her out of Hogwarts for not being brave.

If only she had these thoughts while being dared to search for the ghost of one Emma Birch, whom supposedly haunted the dungeons. It was not, Evangeline had learned, the place where the sixteen-year-old girl's life had ended but as she had been from the house with a snake as its mascot, it was the place her spirit had returned to. That common room was down here somewhere, she'd been told.

Something - the small blonde girl wasn't quite sure what - but something made her stop in her tracks suddenly. There was a low, dull thumping noise. Or maybe that was her heart beating so loudly she thought it was coming from outside her body.

"H-h-hello?" Her voice was barely above a whisper.

Remembering that she was supposed to be brave, Evangeline tried again.

"Hello! Is Emma Birch here?"

The sound of her own words bouncing back at her off the walls made her jump.


Pausing on her way to class Eden overheard a girl's voice calling out to Emma Birch, which Eden assumed was just a myth. What was stopping her from pretending to be her? Eden quietly giggled at the nervousness she thought she could hear behind Evangeline’s imitation of a confident voice. It had been awhile since she had pulled a prank but this opportunity was too good to pass up.

"Hello! Is Emma Birch here?"

“Yes it is me, why are you not in class and disturbing me instead?” Eden called out in her best ghosty Emma Birch impression. Eden was happy about her prank so far. But maybe it would be best to let it go in case the girl was too scared. She wasn’t in a bad mood, so she decided to drop the act.

Eden walked over to Evangeline to get a good look at the girl’s face, wondering whether she’d be scared or not. “Hey Evangeline, sorry if I really scared you.” Eden said feeling a little guilty.  Eden said, checking her backpack to see if she had her books for class. She was probably going to be late but she didn’t care.
