hello there, my name is eleanor percival but you can call me ella. i'm 22 so that makes me an alumni at Hogwarts, where I resided in Ravenclaw house. You could say I'm intelligent, knowledgeable, & witty but I personally think that I am passionate, caring and curious. People say I look a lot like leighton meester, but I don't really see it...

a banshee, but her biggest fear that cannot be manifested is finding out second hand that Cyrus had been injured during a matchoverall personality:
Eleanor is not a typical Ravenclaw; she is not that bookish, and she finds herself more to be the cleverly creative than the wise and witty sort. She has a curiosity streak a mile long; she always asks why, how, and what next. She is also wildly passionate about the things she loves most and will fiercely defend them to a point of exasperation on the other party. She loves a good argument or debate, and will like a person more if they're willing to engage her. That passion includes defending the underdog, whether it be during Quidditch tryouts, classes or in the hallways. She'll do something thoughtful for them as a cheer up, like find out their favorite sweet, or sit next to them at breakfast. She does not try and judge a person by her first impression of them; if she did she would never have been with Cyrus.
Eleanor has a flaring temper; her father would call her Hurricane Elle when she was on a warpath. She has been known to say nasty and biting things when she is angry; something she always ends up regretting. She would always come down quickly and turn back into her kind, caring self, and will always apologize for being mean or rude. She's been able to keep her temper more in check now that she has a job she loves, but sometimes certain peopleher current boyfriendwill irritate her to a point of waspish quips.

Eleanor was the second child born to Fletcher & Cornelia Percival, who had a seven year old son named Hunter when she came into the world. Fletcher and Cornelia are both Muggles; Cornelia a London-based podiatrist, and Fletcher the popular play-by-play sportscaster for the Arsenal Football team. Hunter had not shown any signs of magic, so the shock of the manifestation of Eleanors' powers came as quite a shock. It started with her flying off a long water slide in Brighton Pier, but instead of injuring herself, she landed like a cat on her feet. They thought nothing of it though, until Ella's eleventh birthday. The Headmistress of Hogwarts, Minerva McGonagall, paid them a visit with Ella's letter in hand. She explained that Ella was a witch and that she was invited to attend Hogwarts that September. While Cornelia was initially quite hesitant, Fletcher was more than excited to be part of this part of the world he had never seen before. He was the one who took Ella to get her schoolbooks, her wand and exchange some of their Muggle money for Wizarding coinage, all while incredibly fascinated by everything he saw. Her brother Hunter was away traveling in Germany when this all happened, and could not make it home in time to see Ella off on the train. While Ella had been devastated by this at the time, she eventually got past it; he found the world to be as fascinating as his father did, especially with communicating by owl post.
Upon entering Hogwarts, Ella was Sorted into Ravenclaw house; the hat had debated for almost five minutes between Ravenclaw and Hufflepuff before finally deciding on the former. Within the first week, she had made fast friends with a Ravenclaw girl who had been brought up in an all-magical household; the entire family was obsessed with Quidditch. Her friend taught her everything about Quidditch, and Ella soon realized there were plenty of similarities to soccer, a love she shared with her father. She soon realized that her feet were far better while on solid ground; but her passion for the sport grew until it surpassed football. She even convinced her father to buy tickets for their family for the Quidditch World Cup in England the summer before her third year to introduce them to the sport. Ella also developed an affinity for Charms & Transfiguration, but was abysmal at History of Magic; she just couldn't find it interesting.
Aside from Quidditch games, Charms Club and studying for classes, Eleanor was lucky enough to find the great love of her life when she was just twelve years old; Cyrus Ellington. He was a Slytherin in her year, but they only interacted in her second year when the Charms professor paired them together for practice. She found him a bit irritating of first; it wasn't love at first sight for her. But she found herself looking around for him during classes and somehow sitting next to him for most classes. When he made the Quidditch team their third year, Ella ended up secretly rooting for Slytherin (except against Ravenclaw of course!). Finally, fourth year, after a heated argument, Cyrus and Ella had their first kiss and were inseparable all the way up to graduation. Sadly, their relationship came to a mutual begruding end after school; Ella had been hired to work in the Department of Magical Games & Sports in London while Cyrus had been recruited to the Appleby Arrows. The great thing about Ella's job was that she was always able to hear any news about Cyrus and the team almost as immediately as it happens - she has an Arrows poster hanging in her cubicle, but tells her coworkers that it's just always been her favorite team.
When the kidnappings and attacks at Hogwarts happened, Ella reached out to Cyrus' little sister; she was a fellow Ravenclaw and she had always liked the younger girl. She never told Cyrus that she did so though; for she now is currently in a relationship with a young man working in the Department of Magical Transportation. He would like to take the next step in the relationship, but there is just something holding Ella back... Her current reasoning is the Triwizard Tournament; she was selected by the Head of the Department to help organize all the logistics. Though his sister is only sixteen, Ella still wonders if Cyrus would come to see any of the Tournament; she hasn't seen him in two years, and she finds herself wondering what it'll be like the day they see each other again.
