Biography:
Violet could be well dressed, because her family has money, but she could care less about clothes. She's smart, well-read, socially awkward, not a little rebellious, and intensely curious, and she wants to be a writer.

Violet's mother came from an old, Pure-Blood family which disowned her when she eloped with a Muggle. Violet was sent home to live with her grandfather when she was very young and barely remembers her parents. She grew up in the family's London home with her grandfather and three eccentric uncles. When she was seven, her mother's old school-friend, Jane Howard, came to be Violet's governess. Violet wasn't allowed to play with many children her own age growing up, and as a result, she's socially awkward.

She grew up intensely curious about her father, because her family refuses to ever speak of him, and because of this, she conceived an idealized picture of him. In what should have been her second year at Hogwarts, her father contacted her and persuaded her to run away with him to New York. There she found out her family had good reason to keep her away from her father and that he was a rather disreputable confidence man who seemed to mainly want Violet with him so she could use her magic to further his schemes. Violet's mother was no longer with her husband and Violet doesn't know where she is, or if she is even still alive. Miss Howard tracked Violet down in New York City before too much damage was done and brought her back home, but the governess was fired as a result of Violet's escapade.

Because Violet missed what should have been her second year at Hogwarts, she's now a year behind her class. During her second year at Hogwarts, she was temporarily possessed by a ghost and was embarrassed about it for a long time.
During her third year, Hogwarts was taken over by the Neo-Alliance and Violet spent the latter part of the year locked in a room in the sub-dungeon, and the experience has made her suspicious, rebellious, and somewhat cynical.

She'd hoped to have a more normal fourth year, but her allergy to one of the ingredients in the potions Healer Poppy used in the candles caused her to spend most of the year with constant headaches and unable to eat much. These symptoms persisted into her fifth year and caused her some trouble in classes, but finally went away in time for her to take her O.W.L.S. She had been made somewhat suspicious and paranoid by the disasters of the past couple of years, and so reacted with un-Slytherin-like rashness and aggressiveness toward the vines that invaded campus.

Despite the lingering brain-fog from the previous year, Violet recovered enough by the end of her fifth year to score an impressive ten O.W.L.S. This, along with a summer romance, several school friendships, and a renewed relationship with her former governess, Jane Howard, have made her much more confident and put-together going into her sixth year. During sixth year, Violet participated in capturing the rogue Board of Governors member responsible for bringing the Pharoah's Triumph into the school the previous year. She also worked on a short story she'd been writing about the Neo-Alliance takeover of Hogwarts and at year's end she succeeded in getting it accepted for publishing by Witch Weekly Magazine over the summer. Violet entered her final year feeling very confident about her skills in writing, school, and even socially, and things pretty much exceeded her expectations. She pursued her creative writing and continued to submit pieces to both Wizarding and Muggle publications (and though she hasn't managed to publish another story as yet, she's gotten some very encouraging responses form editors), passed all her N.E.W.T. classes (ending up with a total of six N.E.W.T.S.), and best of all, formed a romantic relationship with fellow Slytherin Caes Hawkins (which was only slightly disturbed by his sister Aria). Upon graduation, she's planning to study potions at the Göttingen Alchemical Institute in Germany (though things may not go as planned.)
