"*If you tremble with indignation at every injustice then you are a comrade of mine*." - Genesis Genevieve Cox about injustice in the wizarding world.

**Genesis Genevieve Cox** (b. 10th of April 1952) is a Scottish Muggleborn witch. She is the second child of **Darius Lazarus Cox** and **Serena Adeline Cox** (née Porter). Genesis grew up in a household build of old money. Her father operates as a well-known business man. Cox men have been associated with the tertiary industry for centuries. They are also known to be strongly connected to the Bank of England, as one of the founders. Meanwhile, Serena Cox could be found at the local apothecary of Roseburn, Edinburgh, brewing herbal treatments.

The tiring schedules of her parents, would cause a small drift between them. Despite the lack of their presence, she believes that family comes first. Genesis would be mostly raised by housemaids, attending to her every need. During the first eleven years of her life, she would be close to her oldest and only sibling, Quincy Everleigh Cox.

## Early life {1952-1963}

The walls of Cox manor would often be filled with house staff. As a traditional family, it was expected for Genesis to have her own housemaid. For years she was spoiled, receiving attention whenever she demanded it. Her parents fulfilled the majority of her desires. Young Genesis was often times described as a little angel by those who would catch a glimpse of her. Yet those whom knew her would protest heavily. The little she devil would cause ruckus al around the house. Despite of her pranks, she was still adored by many.

Genesis attended a private primary school in Edinburgh until she reached the age of 9. From that age she started experiencing magical occurrences. When provoked, peculiar things would happen. On February the 9th of 1961 she was expelled from Saint George’s primary school. A few remarks about her auburn locks had caused her to set a boy’s shoes on fire. Darius and Serena Cox decided, that it would be best to home-school her to avoid future uncontrolled outbursts.

Everything fell into place when Genesis received her invitation to Hogwarts School of Witchcraft and Wizardry, at the age of 11. Her bond had tightened with her parents after gaining there support. Alas, her older sister Quincy, didn’t share their joy out of envy.

During the summer of 1963, Genesis attempted to deepen her knowledge about the wizarding world. Her focus on Hogwarts diverted quickly to quidditch, a magical sport that she felt passionate about.

### Apothecary {1960-1963}

Every Wednesday afternoon, Genesis and her favourite nanny ( **Margeret Dilaurentis**) would visit her mother’s apothecary in Roseburn. As preparation for het visit, Genesis would be ofter found in the gardens of the manor, collecting different kinds of herbs. On her own time she’d try to learn the names and functions of the herbs that she gathered. Genesis would present the plants to her mother, hoping for some affection or pride. Her view of the Apothercary changed quickly. At first Genesis saw it as a way to bond with her mother, whom she looked up to. But after having the experience of meeting and helping people, she developed an empathic side. Knowing that she could make a difference in the world, she started to dream of becoming a healer.

### Baseball {1958-1963}

"*There is some sort of magic in the unexpected*" - Presley Barneveld to Genesis Genevieve Cox after Genesis complained about not being in control.

Occasionally, Genesis would be visited by doctors, even before her freakish accident. On account of her anger-issues, she would be often encouraged to take on a sport. . Genesis choose to play baseball after reading about it on the newspaper. She was interested in baseball since it was an American sport. Genesis took up baseball from the age of 7. She loved her time on the field. Genesis adores challenges, she would practice day and night in the hope that she could join the boys team. Unfortunately, her ambition didn't get her anywhere, just because she was a girl. That was her first encounter with injustice. Sometimes she could be a control-freak but the game taught her to expect the unexpected. Being a sore loser would add to her will power. She was one of the aggressive players on the field but at the same time a team player.

## Life at Hogwarts {1963-Current}

### First Year

Genesis, a new student sorted into Gryffindor house at Hogwarts School of Witchcraft and Wizardry, encountered a mix of excitement and nervousness in her first year. Despite making new friends, the thrill of attending such a prestigious wizarding institution was cut short by the revelation of Pure-blood supremacy and the resulting sneering remarks from her peers. These cruel jabs left a lasting impact on Genesis's self-esteem, causing her to construct emotional walls for protection.

### Second Year

During second year, Genesis decided to show her true colours. Despite still trying to find herself, she fought for her believes. Her unpopular opinion about house rivarly would cause her to have a fall out with most of her Gryffindor friends. Her academic year took a great turn when she succesfully managed to secure a spot as a beater in the Gryffindor quidditch team. Furthermore she took great pride in excelling in most class subjects, proving herself to be a clever witch.

## Physical appearance

Genesis never was the tallest or the shortest. Even though she never talks about it, she cares for her height. That's why she is always walking around in heels. She takes every inch that she can get. She has straight mid-length coppery auburn hair. She inherited her hazelnut eyes from her fathers side. Genesis is very confident and roams the halls with her nose up in the air.

Besides her height she cares about her appearance. In the Cox manor she learned how important appearances are for a first impression. Because of this she is very focused on being neat. When she is not wearing her Hogwarts robes, she likes to experiment with outfits. She is a very artsy person and loves to try different outfit combinations. Her style varies from very chic to casual.

Even though she is focused on her appearance, she still values personality over looks. "*Appearances make impressions but it is the personality that makes an impact*" - Quincy Everleigh Cox to her younger sister Genesis Genevieve Cox.

## Personality

But to the people who know her, she is a very supportive, empathic, and loyal friend. Genesis doesn’t have any problems with voicing her opinions. She is quick-witted and intelligent. She is a serious student but can also be very mischievous at the right times. Most of the time she is optimistic which adds to her courageous personality. She treasures the time with her friends and tries to get the best experiences out of school. Genesis is very ambitious and is a hard worker.
