May act as catalysts for individual and group growth. Loyal, responsive to praise and criticism. Sociable, facilitate others in a group, and provide inspiring leadership. (x)
Clara is the type to always offer to help someone no matter who they might be. The teacher in her tells her to always forgive, but the lion in her really only wants whats best for people. This has gotten her in trouble countless times in her youth. She trusted easily only to be stepped on. Growing up from that, Clara now a professor, trusts her students, but also disciplines them when they try to pull one over her.
Clara is hard on herself and will bring herself down if she feels she may have screwed up a lesson or screwed up her own chance at a relationship. She gets attached to people easily, and has commitment issues when relationships interfere with her work. Clara can be defined as a workaholic, but she knows when to relax at the Three Broomsticks.

history:
This story doesn't start with Cassandra falling madly in love with William. Not at all. You see William was one of those Quidditch pro players. Cassandra had a job at Quality Quidditch Supplies when a cocky Williams walked into the store demanding for new gear. After Cassandra gave him what he had rudely demanded for, William paid, told her to keep the rest, and left. A few years later, William came back to that store, looking for Cassandra. He tracked her down to her parents' flower shop where he convinced her to go out with her. After several years of dating, they got married and had two children.
Maxwell had a wonderful only child upbringing. He got all the new wizard stuff, got all of his father Quidditch gear, and even got a pet when he went to Hogwarts. Clara was born when Max was eight years old. He left for school when Clara was about three. Max wasn't the big brother Clara wished she could have grown up with. From the time he left for Hogwarts until he graduated, Maxwell didn't pay much attention to his little sister. He saw Clara as an annoying pest.
When Clara entered Hogwarts, it was a dream come true. Unfortunately the Bates name carried a sort of Quidditch legacy due to her brother and father, but Clara's interests peaked in her Care of Magical Creatures class. The young witch stayed extra hours with her professor to learn all that she could. One of her assignments included taking care of a pygmy puff. It was after this assignment Clara knew she wanted to work with magical creatures. She discovered Newt Scamander and read everything he wrote and all the creatures he encountered.
After finishing her Hogwarts education, Clara set off to do her own expedition around Europe. Clara's adventures around Europe were all written in a set of diaries, which were later published. The diaries included detailed sketches of the magical creatures she encountered much like Newt Scamander's book did. Clara was hired as the Care of Magical Creatures Professor a few years later. She adopted a Welsh Corgi puppy and named him Gatsby to keep her company in her new home - Hagdrid's old hut.
