overall personality:
cordie is an easy person to get along with. she is sweet, kind, caring, and friendly. she will do anything for people in need and to see others happy. if she didn't love quidditch so much, she would probably go into some field to help people after hogwarts but as it is, she is currently looking at becoming a professional quidditch player. cordie is a very compassionate person, and loves all creatures - humans or not. she has a special place in her heart for muggleborns as well, as her parents are both muggleborn. she is loyal and a good friend to anyone that needs a shoulder to cry on or just an ear to listen.
but cordelia does have a bad side. for instance, if you are a blood supremacist, it is likely that cordie will dislike you a great deal. she is not a fan of many slytherins for this reason, seeing as they are usually the ones that are big sticklers on blood status but cordie does not judge books by their covers, and will generally give everyone a chance to prove to her that they aren't bad. but if you fail to prove that to her, well, it is advised you head in the other direction.
cordie has a reputation for flirting with many boys around the school. she also has quite the reputation for partying as well. she loves to let loose and have fun when she can, and often does so by heading off to the three broomsticks and flirting with older men to get them to buy her free drinks. cordie is a lady, however, and knows her limits. she doesn't party all the time but when she does, she is one hell of a spitfire.

history:
love found itself in the eyes of justin finch-fletchley and laura madley shortly after the two had graduated. they had both began working in the ministry for separate departments when they met for the first time since school in the main lobby of the ministry, both running late on one of their first days. needless to say, it was love at first sight for the former badgers. the two moved in together and fell head over heels for one another. they actually conceived their first child before they were even married... much to the dismay of their families. not wanting to rush things (and because laura wanted to fit into the dress,) they waited until their child was born before they got married. cordelia lauren was the result!
cordelia got to attend her parents' wedding, but she was so young that she doesn't remember a thing. she just knows that from pictures, she was dressed in some ridiculous light pink baby dress that made her look like a marshmallow. justin and laura were madly in love with each other and their daughter. from a young age, cordelia was told by all of her relatives that she would look just like her mother when she was older. this was exciting to cordie as she believed her mother to be the most beautiful woman on the planet. cordie was spoiled, to say the least. her father had come from a wealthy muggle family, so he was already kind of sitting on a fortune. all of cordie's life, she was "daddy's little girl." but laura and justin had made a point to make sure that their daughter was not shallow and superficial. they left the spoiling to the grandparents.
when cordie was two, her parents decided to have another child. her brother was born this time and her grandparents were thrilled it wasn't out of wedlock! (they had always all been very prim and proper.) cordie was excited to have a younger brother. though, at first she thought him to be more of a play doll than a little baby. it took her playing rough one day for her to realize that he was a fragile being. her brother may have been the reason she had developed such a passionate love for people. she made sure to treat him gentle from then on, and she found herself being very protective of her brother to her relatives. her bond with her brother was strong, even from a young age.
coming from a family made mostly of muggles with only two wizards in the family, cordie's parents wondered if she would indeed have magic in her. upon hearing her parents discuss this one night in private, cordie decided to test the waters herself. she had snuck into her parents' room while they were asleep and reached into her mother's nightstand, grabbing her wand. curiously and unknowingly, cordie flicked the wand at nothing in particular and before she knew it, her parents' bed was levitating four feet off of the ground. they woke up after cordelia had yelled "mommy! daddy!" the two were shocked at first and even scolded cordelia for stealing her mother's wand without permission, but they couldn't hide their excitement that they weren't the only magical ones in the family. it happened again years later when cordie's brother showed his first signs of magic and the finch-fletchleys were finally a family full of wizards.
cordelia received her letter to hogwarts and was obviously sorted into hufflepuff, like both of her parents before her. this came as no surprise to them. they actually preferred this over anything. cordie was told many stories of how slytherins treated muggleborns in their own days at hogwarts, and how her parents both had to go into hiding and relocated with their muggle parents when voldemort was at his highest power. they warned cordie that not all blood supremacists had gone extinct and that many still existed, but cordie smirked at this. she had always been a strong-willed and stubborn individual when it came to people trying to start fights with her. cordie found at a young age that she was a talented witch so threatening to charm the pants off of someone was no problem for her.
at hogwarts, she found that she had a knack for herbology. her father had informed her of his years alongside the herbology professor himself, and cordie liked longbottom's class a lot. cordie had never been able to take care of animals, for she has always been a bit scatterbrained and ditzy so she figured taking care of plants was better than taking care of a living animal. that was how she got her enchanted cacti, spike. the only subject that cordie was absolutely dreadful at was transfiguration, and she would rather it be left at that. she did, however, have a great talent in quidditch. neither of her parents had played the sport so it was a surprise that the young witch was as good was she was. she tried out for the role of chaser her fourth year and has made the same consecutive spot ever since!
upon hearing about the muggleborn girl, cordie became frightened. she would never let on to that, of course, but she is afraid of blood supremacy rising to power and her family having to go into hiding. cordie loves muggles and the idea of just a pureblooded world disgusts her. she believes the way muggleborns are treated is unfair and she does what she can to prevent bullies from putting muggleborns down, but when it comes down to it, cordie is terrified of being killed because of her halfblood status. or her parents, who work in the ministry, being killed bcause they are muggleborns. cordie wants to do everything in her own power to help put the rising chaos to a halt.
