Right kido’s, this is Charlotte Jane Hemingford, otherwise known as Lottie. She is a seventh year Ravenclaw, the middle child of the Hemingford family, and a generally sweet girl. However, that fact is often overlooked, because she is not exactly what you would call normal. As Lottie is a Seer, and due to it not being handled properly as a child, it twisted her mind a little. And now she suffers from mild schizophrenia, (as she struggles to tell what is reality and what are visions) as well as displaying some OCD behaviour, as she struggles to take control of her own mind. Basically she is a little messed in the head. It used to be much worse than it is today, as she is helped by the staff to control her delusions and separate reality from everything else in her mind. However she still has episodes, and it always a bit of a struggle in her life.
So as I said, Lottie is the second of three children in the Hemingford family. She was born in July, however not by Mrs Hemingford. Lottie was an accident, and was conceived during on of Mr Hemingford’s many acts of adultery. However Mrs Hemingford agreed to raise her as her own, to cover up the potential scandal Lottie could cause. So right from the off, Lottie was treated with slight neglect, as to the mother of the family she was a reminder of the affair and to the father, she was a mistake he would always regret. So when she began to display signs of being a seer, they ignored it, and treated it as an overactive imagine. And Lottie began to believe it, she believed that everything she was seeing was some other reality she could escape to in her mind. And when they realised exactly what she was, it was to late, Lottie was lost. As she could no longer distinguish what was reality and what was not. Instantly she became a shame on the family, and her father hid her away. Which sadly only caused more problems for Lottie, as she never learnt how to interact with other children. In-fact it was not until she arrived at Hogwarts, that she began to interact with other people other than her family and that was a difficult process for her, as she knew nothing of the social norms, and was instantly labled weird.
The label of ’weird’ still follows her today, and most people call her ’Loppy Lottie’, but it very rarely bothers her. For in Lottie’s mind, she is perfectly normally, and she struggles to understand why people don’t understand her sometimes. And sometimes that can often frustrate her. However that is very rare, as Lottie often lives in her very own little world. She is a big daydreamer, and is often found staring off into space. Other than that, she can be a little…how to put it…blunt? Because of her lack of interaction as a child, she never exactly learnt what is socially acceptable and what is not. So she often does things and says things, that most people would never do. But really, past all the crazy, Lottie is a sweet girl. She not judgemental, and would befriend a dementor, just the same as she would befriend any normal person. She knows who she is, and she accepts and deals with it. She is a strong girl, brave, and loving, but like I said it is hidden under a hella lot of crazy.
I really I hope I managed to explain her right, cos I really don’t have her straight in my head yet. She is a completely new character to me, and there is a lot of room for developing her. So please, reply and help me expand her a little…through her relationships with others. PS, I will love on anybody who replies, cos I love plots. <3
