**Aurora Celia Dear** is a returning student at Ninth House, the leader of Quantum society. She is portrayed by Tugce Talay.

Aurora's tale begins within the halls of Ninth House; a girl who could never say she had a normal childhood. Born to headmaster Adrian Dear and his wife, Lorain, Aurora's childhood was imbued with the subtle energies that permeate the college grounds. Her earliest memories are painted with hues of ancient manuscripts, celestial observatories, and the whispers of forgotten secrets. Adrian Dear has been the Headmaster of Ninth house for 28 years; residing and calling that same institution home. Besides the student dorms there is a part of Ninth House that belongs to Dears - the only place Aurora could even call home. She grew up in Ninth House, watching students come and go until she was old enough to call herself a Ninth House student. Living in this institution let Aurora into the wicked world of it as such a young age, understanding what went on behind closed doors and what secrets she had to keep; knowledge that was at time suffocating her.She was raised in an environment where books weren't just stories but gateways to otherworldly realms. Her curiosity, kindled by the luminescent glow of Ninth House’s library, quickly evolved into a passion for the mystical arts. Guided by her father's subtle teachings, Aurora delved into the traditions, the very essence of the Quantum which she would later come to lead.

Aurora's exterior mirrors the luminosity of her name. At first glance, she is the embodiment of warmth and positivity, her laughter echoing like a melody through the ancient corridors. Her auburn locks and sparkling eyes contribute to the image of a radiant girl whose presence seems to dispel shadows. However, behind the radiant facade lies a mind adept at navigating the intricate threads of both academia and the occult. Aurora's cheerfulness is not merely an expression of genuine joy but a strategic tool used to create an aura of approachability and charm. She understands the power of perception in a place where alliances and connections are as crucial. Her ability to maintain a cheerful demeanor, even in the face of challenges, grants her a certain influence over those around her. Students and faculty alike are drawn to her radiant presence, finding solace in the illusion of simplicity she presents.

Aurora's endearing quirk in addressing her close friends as "Deers" became a symbol of camaraderie within the Quantum. Her use of the term, while seemingly endearing, serves as a subtle form of control, reinforcing a sense of unity and camaraderie within the Quantum. She carefully crafts an image of inclusivity, ensuring that every member feels valued, all while subtly guiding the direction of the society.

It's her quiet way of finding solace and connecting with the cosmic forces.

Tea, with its myriad flavors and rituals, emerges as a comforting elixir in Aurora's life. The art of hosting Tea Parties becomes a cherished pastime, offering a serene refuge from the rigors of magical studies. The clinking of delicate teacups and the aromatic swirl of tea leaves blend harmoniously with the enchanting conversations that unfold in these gatherings.

Rain, with its rhythmic cadence, holds a special enchantment for Aurora. Whether it's the gentle pitter-patter on Ninth House's ancient windows or a storm unleashing its power, rain serves as a poetic backdrop to her contemplative moments. The connection between rain and magic becomes a recurring motif in her perceptions.

Sweet perfumes, with their delicate notes and lingering scents, serve as a bridge between the tangible and the ethereal for Aurora. Each fragrance is a unique potion that, when applied, not only adorns her skin but also casts a spell, invoking memories of moments both cherished and elusive. The transformative power of sweet perfumes allows her to navigate the corridors of nostalgia, awakening the echoes of days long past.

### Dislikes

Betrayal is a bitter pill she dislikes. In a place where secrets and friendships entwine, Aurora guards against the fear of being betrayed by those around her.

Isolation, the echoing void that severs connections, is another sentiment Aurora vehemently dislikes. The hallowed halls of Ninth House may echo with secrets, but the prospect of being alone in the cavernous silence is a haunting notion. Aurora, with her penchant for warmth and camaraderie, seeks connection amidst the esoteric mysteries, finding solace in the shared enigma of her peers.

Overly sweet desserts aren't to her liking. This preference, contrasting with her love for sweet perfumes, shows her refined taste. Aurora leans towards subtlety in flavors, reflecting her discerning sensibility.

### Family

In the heart of Ninth House, where the ancient stones whisper forgotten truths, the enigmatic Dear family stands as guardians of a legacy woven with threads of mystery and intrigue. Headmaster Adrian Dear, his wife Lorain, and their daughter Aurora cast an indelible presence within the towering spires of the prestigious institution, each contributing a unique essence.

#### Adrian Dear

A figure of enigmatic authority, headmaster Adrian Dear, is the stoic leader of Ninth House. His demeanor exudes an air of mystery, and his every action seems calculated. With piercing eyes that hold the weight of centuries-old secrets, Adrian is not just the overseer of academic affairs but also a guardian of hidden truths. His lineage is deeply intertwined with the founding of the college, and his commitment to its mystical legacy is unwavering.

Aurora's relationship with her father is complex. On one hand, she deeply respects him for his position and the weight he carries as the leader of Ninth House. However, the expectations placed on Aurora, as the daughter of the headmaster, add an extra layer of pressure to uphold the family's mystical legacy.

#### Lorain Dear

Lorain Dear, the elegant and poised wife of headmaster Adrian, adds an aura of grace to the family.

The occasional dinner together or brief conversations about academic matters are the extent of their interactions. Lorain's world revolves around the intricacies of magical studies and the affairs of the college, leaving little time for the more personal aspects of motherhood. The lack of a strong maternal presence has made Aurora more introspective and self-sufficient, although a subtle yearning for a closer connection with her mother remains buried beneath the surface.

### Friendship

Inessa and Aurora appear as close friends, sharing beauty, intelligence, and popularity. However, their friendship might have deeper nuances. Inessa might value Aurora for her social connections, while Aurora might appreciate Inessa's intelligence and skills for her own ambitions. Their bond might blend genuine camaraderie with underlying motives, hinting at a more complex dynamic.
