## Description

### Physical Description

Imogen has bangs and shoulder-length red hair which she tends to wear in two high ponytails, and is never found without her magical cat ears. She is pale and freckled with big blue-green eyes, and is quite a bit shorter than the other girls. She has a round, open and welcoming face, and is a "wee bit chubby", but goes through growth spurts where she is much taller and lankier one month, and shorter and rounder the next. She has a kind smile and a bright, shining curiosity in her eyes.

Her uniform is not really... *uniform*, not for lack of care, but for the purposeful, creative knots she ties her tie into, and her pockets are always a bit crunchy, housing leaves and foliages she's collected throughout the week.

### Personality

Imogen always has a kind word to say, and tries to look on the bright side of things, even if there isn't one (*especially* if there isn't one). Always curious, she searches out answers to her questions and then searches for more questions. She is often found in the library, pouring over books on unusual or eccentric topics or examining the suits of armor, trying to determine what era and age they may be from.

She is loyal to her friends and trusts them implicitly, though she does not often dig for the more subtle or underlying meanings to their words. She is eager to make new friends and finds joy in bringing others happiness. Though she grew up half-blood, she still has an awe and admiration of feats of magic that normborns often express.

She doesn't speak much of her family, besides saying "Me Da's a normie, Mum's a sorcerer. Bit of a shock when he found out." She seems to hold her parents in high regard and expresses her love to them easily, writing home often, recounting the shenanigans she and her friends have gotten up to.

## Biography and Early Life

Imogen was born on the third of June, 1997 to Sigrun Svanhildsdatter and Conner O’Finnegan. Sigrun is from on old Trueblood family with a proud Viking heritage. They are said to be descended directly from the Valkyries (who were in fact just a bunch of badass sorceresses who fought alongside their warriors and provided magical aid). While Imogen is indeed proud of her family’s connection to Norse mythology, she is equally (if not more) proud of her Normie side. Due to the travel-heavy nature of Sigrun’s work, Imogen was more often than not left in the care of her father, Conner. Conner O’Finnegan is a cobbler based just outside of Dun Laoghaire. He has a particular affinity for making shoes that are utterly unique. Imogen spent most of her early childhood in his shop. She enjoys making things and learning new skills. Conner was always happy to encourage and support her in her many creative and crafty pursuits such as bookbinding, woodcarving, basket weaving, and general tinkering. Having seen her parents team of to occasionally craft wonderfully enchanted shoes (boots of wizardkind, boots of oof-gotta-go-fast-now), Imogen has developed a special interest in the wonderful things that can be achieved when the Normie and magical worlds work together.
