HPHM Character Profile: Seren Dwyn

Original template created by @cynicaljapanophile

Tagged by @batgirl-87, like forever ago

General Information

Name: Seren Aisling Dwyn

Age: 16 as of the start of Year 6

Gender: Female

Nickname(s): Rinn (by Jacob), Ash (from Charlie’s Dragonologist friends in the future. Together they’re Char and Ash)

Date of Birth: July 29th, 1973

Astrological/ Zodiac Sign: Leo

Ethnicity: Irish and Faroese (with minor British heritage)

Nationality: Irish

Species: 13/16 Human, 3/16 Siren

Blood Type: A Rh+

Blood Status: Half-Blood

Family: The whole thing is detailed here (x)

Affiliation(s)/ Organization(s): None. Refuses to join the Order of the Phoenix due to a personal hatred of Dumbledore. Affiliations are on a by-person basis. The only consistent ones are Jacob (and their shared detective agency) and her Hogwarts friends

Occupation(s): (Future) Private detective, licensed to use and capture Beasts by the Ministry’s Beast Division

Magical Characteristcs

Form of Boggart: Jacob as he was before he left telling her that she was a disappointment that shouldn’t have been born. Later on becomes herself, completely alone and telling herself just how much nobody loves her

Form of Riddikulus: Jacob/any one of her friends telling really bad jokes until they start laughing at themselves. Because Seren finds their reaction to their own jokes funnier than the actual jokes.

Form of Patronus: Common Seal

What do they see in the Mirror of Erised?: Herself with her hairstyle from before she cut it. Jacob is leaning on her shoulder and wearing a Quidditch uniform while a beater bat lays at his feet. He’s playfully batting at Charlie, also in Quidditch gear. The rest of their friends are surrounding them and it’s fairly obvious that there was a Hufflepuff vs. Gryffindor match that Hufflepuff just won. She doesn’t see a world where Jacob is back. She sees a world where Jacob never left in the first place. (In the future it changes to everyone in their adult appearances, laughing in the Dwyn Detective offices. Seren looks confident and happy, because all she really wants is to be sure that the people she thinks love her actually do)

First Wand:

Length: 12″

Flexibility: Pliable

Wood: Acacia

Core: Unicorn Hair

Description: The default wand that MC gets at the start of the game. A fairly basic wand with a gold vine-like structure wrapping around the base.

Second Wand:

Length: 11 3/4″

Flexibility: Quite Bendy

Wood: Cedar

Core: Unicorn Hair

Description: A simple, straight shaft with no coloration applied. The handle has a medium finish and curves outward for easy gripping. There’s two bands of crushed seashell inlay, one on the top of the handle and one at the base. A small knob at the bottom is carved with a scale-like texture.

Animagus: Common Raven

Amortentia: The sea after a storm, liquorice, fresh-cut grass, something smoky

Appearance

Height: 160cm (5′3″)

Weight: 130lbs (110lbs when she’s starving herself with worry over the Vaults)

Hogwarts Information

Favourite Teacher(s): Flitwick, McGonagall, Kettleburn

Quidditch: Doesn’t play, but might’ve been an alright Seeker

Favourite Spell(s): Aguamenti, Depulso, Metelojinx/Meteolojinx, Stella Cascadia ;)

Trivia

Her father made her and Jacob take step dancing lessons as a kid, and she can still do several of the steps even if there isn’t a single instance in which she’d use them (besides a duel)

She’s actually a very skilled watercolor painter. She and Badeea have been teaching each other in the use of the other’s medium, though watercolor is still Seren’s preference

Seren has no idea how wizard money works and at this point is too afraid to ask

She does the Alex Russo wand-in-boot thing all the freaking time, to the point where it’s her preferred place to store her wand and it makes her very uncomfortable when she’s not wearing high boots because she has no idea where to put her wand anymore

She’s garbage at Gobstones. None of this “distract your friends” nonsense, she hasn’t won a single game once in her life. Not even against Barnaby, who doesn’t know the rules. The first time she played against Charlie, she managed to skip the ball over every other ball in the ring without hitting any of them and then screamed into her hands for a full minute

She’s actually very interested in Alchemy and will absolutely take the class if they ever offer it during her time at Hogwarts

She’ll eat anything once. She’s constantly being dared to eat Flobberworm sandwiches in the Great Hall. She also habitually challenges people to blind-bag Every Flavor Bean challenges where each player has to guess what bean they grabbed without ever seeing the bean

My personal headcanon for the Quidditch sidequest is that during Year 2, Penny pressured her in going for a tryout. She did the training right up until the Vault of Ice happened just before tryouts for the next year and decided that it wasn’t worth the effort

Similar thing with the Frog Choir in that she got in during Year 4, but was only in it for half a year before dropping out due to the Vaults yet again

She has four creatures that are “employed” at her and Jacob’s detective agency:

Brishen, the Augurey and Seren’s cooler alternative to an owl. Brish is a messenger primarily, but also an excellent scout when doing stakeouts

Spud, the Crup that she got as a puppy in Year 6 who is excellent at sniffing out clues and identifying the scents of people who would have been on the scene

The Kneazle kitten that she’s gonna get at around the same time but I haven’t developed yet

Nickelboon, the Niffler from the Creature Reserve that she eventually adopted who... steals evidence from crime scenes now. And also everything in Jacob’s desk. The two don’t like each other much

@oveliagirlhaditright this isn’t really a tag or anything, but I thought it would be helpful if you ever wanted to keep Rapunzel’s info organized

As much as I want Merula to be in MC's place, I can't do it 😭

Since when I play the game, I made it accurate to my lore. Maya loves to sing. Same as Merula's reason, Maya joined the frog choir because her mom joined when she was at Hogwarts. She taught herself how to sing for years and also with the help of her mom as well.

Now enough for lore explanations. I'll come to rant about this part of the sidequest

I feel bad for Merula at this part. Imagine spending years practicing how to sing so that she could join the frog choir but got lost at someone who just joined with no motive on joining. Even though MC auditioned for Dennis, it's still no motive for me since I remember MC only wants to audition because they wanna try it. Please correct me if I'm wrong because that's how I see in the sidequest. Like JC please do make a sidequest where MC has a suitable reason to join or do something other than MC's friends convincing them to join or just MC wanted to try something without a reason.

That's all I could say about this.
