Dusti looks exactly like her twin sister. She is tall and slender, standing at 5'10 in height, with tan skin and almond brown eyes. If you don't know how to tell the twins apart though, look for the scars. Dusti has more then her sister, the largest covering the upper part of her back. It looks more like a burn then a scar though....

Talking about her feelings
Deep down, Dusti dreams of a little cottage, surrounded by fields of flowers. And in those fields of flowers happy blonde haired children play.... Basically a life free from her parents and their way of life.amortentia:
lemons/limes, oranges, grapefruit... Okay, she just likes anything citrus!boggart:
Dusti is actually terrified of kitchens. Ever since a particular incident as a child (in her history) she can't even enter the room without her heart racing...overall personality:
Confined spaces, and the dark.
Dusti doesn't like to show her emotions around people. Ever. Even those closest to her have a hard time getting emotional reactions out of her that don't come off as distant, cold, and harsh. Heck, even talking about her feelings is like pulling teeth. She just isn't open and trusting with people. In fact, she just doesn't like people in general. She's been brought up to believe they are cruel, ruthless, and will only hurt you in the end. Because of her upbringing, and this serious mistrust in people, Dusti has very few friends in her life. And even fewer people that she actually trusts. In fact, there are only two such individuals....
For those that gain her trust (aka those two previously mentioned), Dusti will take on the world to protect them. One of those individuals is her younger twin sister, who she adores and treasures more then anyone else. She will do whatever it takes to protect her sister from physical and emotional pain. The second individual is a young man she's been betrothed to since childhood. He helped her heal emotionally after the boiling water incident (in her history) when she was six, and has since remained her closest and most dear friend.
For the most part, Dusti is a loner. She lurks in empty class rooms, dark corners of the common room, the libary, a deserted part of the grounds... Basically anywhere she doesn't have to deal with people. She hates crowds, and will go out of her way to avoid contact with more then a few people.
Stubborn as an ox, an unwilling to budge or bend to any demands, Dusti stays true to herself. She refuses to let herself be changed in anyway. Faithful, true, and honest. That was what her mother, who could never tell a truth, taught her. She does not take kindly to orders, or even authority figures. She's had such poor examples her entire life, she has little respect for adults or any one she should look up to. This trait is the one her parents now use to tell the twins apart. Dusti always has the angry, defiant eyes.
Last but not least, Dusti is exteremly observant. She's always aware of her surroundings, who is near, what is going on, and even the mood of the room. Being raised in an abusive household taught the girl to always be aware, and prepared to run at a moments notice. This also translates to reading people. She's a natural at reading body language and other indicators of a person's emotions and motives.

Rosiehistory:
Before we begin Dusti's story, let's make one thing clear. Dusti has not had a happy of fulfilling life until now. She was born ten minutes before her identical twin sister on a cold February morning. Finally, Pansy, who had only born a son before then, had not one, but two daughters to groom into perfect little copies of herself. With beautiful blonde hair and eyes like almonds, the twins were mirror images from each other. And, like all twins, there was a deep, and instantaneous connection between them. Before they could even talk they seemed to know what the other was thinking or about to do. And they were happy. Happy, beautiful, little girls.
That happiness did not last though. Her father was quick to raise a hand to his children. And her mother? The witch was a manipulative and demanding liar. Even to this day Dusti can remember the first time her father struck her. It hadn't been her fault. He'd wanted to hit her sister for being to loud. But their parents never seemed able to tell the girls apart. Either way, right then and there, Dusti changed. Cheek still stinging, she made a promise. To herself and her sister. That she would always protect her. As they grew older, Dusti did everything she could to keep her sister from harm. When their parents were angry she would hide her away, trying desperately to take the emotional and physical abuse for both of them.
And then there was River. Their sweet baby brother. No matter how hard she tried, Dusti never got there in time to protect him. She kept trying though. For years. Until the accident that has haunted her ever since.
Dusti didn't know what River had done, she hadn't been paying attention as she sat at the kitchen table, practicing her letters. But suddenly her mother was yelling and dragging the poor boy into the kitchen. What she intended to do will forever remain a mystery. Because when the six year old saw her terrified little brother she knew she had to do something. She shouldn't have gotten involved though. Heck, she should have seen the pot of boiling water on the stove. Long story short, Dusti was able to get her mother's attention off of her brother. In the process though the pot was knocked over, and scalding water severely burned Dusti's back. She still carries the scars from the incident.
For months Dusti refused to talk to anyone, even her twin. She just emotionally shut down from the trauma. Eventually she started to speak again, but she just wasn't the same. She was colder, harsher, and she avoided River like the plague.
Life goes on though. Her father never found out about the incident, and her mother never mentioned it. Never offered an apology. The physical and emotional abuse continued. Dusti met the boy her parents had arranged for her to marry. She'd always known it was coming. Raleigh had been betrothed since she was born, and she'd heard her parents talk about River's own arrangement. Of course she and her sister wouldn't be an exception. Surprisingly, she liked this boy. In fact she looked forward to his family visiting. He was the first person she let in after the accident and has become one o f the most important people in her life (second only to her twin).
Eventually Raleigh was off to school, and a year later Dusti and her sister joined him. Raleigh, the older brother that she barely knew. Their upbringing had created a rift between them. Surprisingly, both twins were sorted into the same house as their brother, but did little to improve their relationship. Like most everyone else, Dusti ignored his existence. And finally River started school, but he was sorted into Ravenclaw.
Her years at Hogwarts have been... uneventful. She's made few, if any friends. She keeps to herself. Basically, she's yet to make any sort of mark. She's quite average when it comes to most subjects, but has a knack for Herbology. (It's probably from her childhood, where one of the safest places to hide at the estate was the gardens.) Even this year, with several students killed she'd stayed out of it all, refusing to get involved.
