Professor Psyche Bitterwood

== Personality ==
Psyche is a kind person who is always willing to help her students. She can be a bit immature at times, but will speak up if needed. 
She hates conflict and will do anything in her power to defuse a tense situation or will fall into a silent background. Psyche does not duel or condone it, due to her past trauma.
== Academic and Professional Career ==
Psyche Sybil Bitterwood attended Hogwarts as a presumed-Muggleborn student with very little understanding of the wizarding world. 
She was sorted into Hufflepuff and became increasingly curious as to why there never seemed to be lessons on arts. Psyche often got points deducted for disrupting class and developed a not-so-nice reputation as she hung out primarily with Slytherins when Voldemort took over. 
The Battle of Hogwarts occurred during her fifth year, where she fought alongside her teachers and fellow student after a year of mental torment and physical torture. 
Afterwards, she did no return to Hogwarts to finish her schooling.
Psyche returned to Hogwarts after presenting a compelling lesson plan to teach wizarding children about the Muggle art world and history.
== Personal Life ==
=== Childhood ===
Psyche was adopted and raised by her fathers, Alonzo Bitterwood (an art dealer) and Rupert Bitterwood (a curator). She grew up surrounded by art and has a keen eye for it. Her magic began to manifest and show around age 7, when she would create colorful sparks when she was happy or excited.
She attended private primary schooling before receiving her Hogwarts letter, where she was picked on for being adopted, for being raised by two gay men, and being a generally strange child. She was overjoyed upon her acceptance into Hogwarts and was sorted into Hufflepuff.
=== Post Battle of Hogwarts ===
After the Battle of Hogwarts, Psyche suffered from clinical PTSD. She refused to go back and shut her wand away. She completed secondary schooling at home with her fathers before going on to study Studio Art and Art History at a Muggle university. She fell into many vices to deal with her trauma, becoming a functioning alcoholic. 
But after her graduation from university, she found herself being drawn back to the world of magic. She took up her wand again and started working on a lesson plan to present to Hogwarts.
