I do not own Harry Potter. That title respectively goes to J.K Rowling.
My siblings want me to hurry up and write instead of ranting about any little thing that pops in my mind like some other writers do. So, we're going to have to wait for that until the next chaptor. This chaptor might be pretty short since I just stared, but I'm hoping that the others will be longer than this. Well, enjoy.
The Bredbeddle Heiress
Nimue is a lovely girl with a slim but sufficiently curved figure, long delicate pianist fingers and vast curtain of very dark auburn hair. She has large green eyes with perpetually pin-prick pupils due to blindness. She has a heart-shaped face, full pouty cupid's bow lips and high cheekbones. She has a very small heart shaped strawberry mark birthmark on her neck below her jaw by her right ear, that jumps with the tempo of her heartbeat. It's like her "tell" to that stony exterior. Nimue wears her skirts longer than is fashionable (well below the knee), along with tights and the full kit of oxford shirt, vest and house tie. Her casual dress is similarly old fashioned and modest, but expensive and flattering as befit a girl fo her birth. Her unadorned attractive appearance is the only thing her father has ever praised, so she is consistent in keeping up the look he prefers.
She walks in a very purposefully graceful way. She never rushes anywhere. She is known for her mannequin-like pose of ramrod straight posture, legs modestly closed at all times and her hands clasped in front of her.
Her voice is siren-like and soft, but she rarely speaks so few are aware of its lovely cadence. She has a glass cutting english accent with only some of the Edinburgh brogue creeping into select words.
Elemanzer, her cat, is very lean and very black (shadow-like even) with perpetual glowing eyes. The eyes glow due to the spell that helps Nimue 'see.' He's kind of demonic looking actually. He's not generally friendly to anyone but Nimue. Even by cat standard he's very silent, but he isn't afraid of hissing, and sometimes attacking, those that upset his mistress. Though lovely, Nimue rarely stands out in a crowd. She is often seen unobtrusively making her way out of the room and spending most of her time with herself. She has little to no friends and seems to actively prefer it that way. She comes off as emotionless and aloof, but not snobbish. Doll-like would be a better word. The fact she is blind doesn't help. The blank stare adds to the effect.
She seems to get by without a cane or any sign of difficulty due to her cat, Elemanzer. In a sense, he functions as her eyes, though she doesn't actually see through his. It's more she understands the landscape through the cat. However, this makes her completely dependent on the animal. She is utterly helpless if something happens to Elemanzer.
Nimue won't be actively rude to anyone that does engage her, but her answers are often short and formal, almost painfully so. This is simply an act of emotional survival, coming from the rather stilted pureblood background. It's the only way she knows and she does it well. She squashes her own wants and desires in order to stifle the pain.
Indeed, Nimue is every inch the perfect refined lady, holding herself with grace, modesty and composure. The only time she comes alive is when she sings. Nimue has the voice of an angel that is heartbreaking to hear. However, she rarely preforms in public. Though she will never admit this, her favorite pop song to sing is "Listen To Your Heart." Nimue is the only daughter of a very old pureblood house and something of a disappointment. This is due to a variety of reasons not the least of which is her blindness. Being born without the ability to see is a source of constant frustration for her father. To top it all off, her father really wanted a son, making her a double disappointment. Her mother, the undisputed "better half" of her father, died due to complications brought about by her birth. So adding to the mounting disappointment is a certain level of blame on her father's part. Though Nimue is a very capable witch despite her blindness, her father thinks her useless. He has informed her repeatedly that he intends to "marry her off" to a man of his choosing as soon as she leaves Avalon.
