Joy loves to write and read, and she’s very bright. Most were shocked when she wasn’t placed in Ravenclaw, but she wasn’t. Joy is fiercely loyal to her family and friends.

History
History: Joy Lane Maddison was born on July 26 to her parents, Tara and Lee Maddison, and her older sister, Sara. Her childhood, by normal standards, was slightly strange, because her father was a wizard. Christmas was her favorite holiday as a child: going from the quirky home of their father’s parents, to the warm and cozy one of their maternal, and Muggle, grandparents. Joy and her sister, Sara, were best friends, but as much as she loved Sara, Joy always felt overshadowed by her exuberant and popular sister. In comparison, Joy was quiet and timid, preferring to spend her time reading rather than flying. When Sara left for her first year at Hogwarts, everyone expected Joy to come out of her shell, but she didn’t, because she’d rather be alone than surrounded by artificial friends.
The next year, when Joy entered Hogwarts, everyone expected her to be s sorted into Ravenclaw like her sister, but for once, she didn’t want to live in Sara’s shadow. Instead, she asked the Sorting Hat to place her in Hufflepuff, and it did. Joy found Hufflepuff more to her liking, anyway, and loved the friends she made there. Sara was s till her best friend, of course, but she wasn’t her only best friend. Throughout her years at Hogwarts, Joy became quite the teacher’s favorite, and it was often remarked upon that she was certainly bright enough for Ravenclaw. Whenever that subject was breached, Joy just hid her secret smile and thanked them graciously. Asking for Hufflepuff had been the best choice of her life, and she had never once regretted it.
Sample RP
She was beginning to think that August would never end. Reighleigh Braxton shuffled through the rows upon rows of books stuffed into Flourish and Blotts, gathering her school books that she needed for her sixth year at Hogwarts. As the silence engulfed her, she wished, for the millionth time, for a sibling. Usually, she had friends or her aunt to keep her company, but today, her Aunt Laura was working, and all her friends were still on vacation, visiting Egypt and France and Rome.
Sighing, she browsed for a few more moments before trudging up to the counter. Smiling brightly at the shopkeeper, she asked for assistance finding her Transfiguration book. As she followed him to the back of the store, she dodged the leery gaze of one customer and nearly ran into another. Not bothering to glance at their face, she blushed red and mumbled "Sorry," before hurrying after the store worker. Please, let someone from school walk through those doors!
