Character Details
Physical Description:
Eden is, for the lack of a better word, short. Not many seventeen year olds stand at 5'1" and paired with her creamy pale skin she looks like some kind of fiery fairy. When she isn't in Kameons wearing the mandatory school uniform she's wearing her comfy outfit of jeans and t-shirts with old, beat up sneakers. Her choice in clothing doesn't vary much and she only dresses up when the occasion demands for it.
Most would agree that Eden's hair is her most distinguishing physical attribute. Naturally a blonde color, it's constantly going from fire engine red to eye popping orange and other various shades of red with the help of her wand. Sometimes it would even be a mixture of colors with maybe some electric yellow thrown into the mix. It's cut to about a few inches below her shoulders with long, side swept bangs. It's pretty straight naturally so Eden doesn't do much except run a brush or comb through it. Possibly she'd throw it into a pony tail if she ever happens to come across a hair tie.
Eden has green, deep set eyes rimmed with short eyelashes. In her opinion, her eyes are her dullest physical traits. They don't "glint" or change colors or anything of the like like others. Well, except whenever she smiles her eyes tend crinkle at the sides and squint. The only thing special about that is in a couple of years she'll have permanent laugh lines etched onto her face because of it. Her smile, although very charming, also contribute to her future laugh lines. Getting wrinkles isn't a very envied attribute.
Personality Description:
Eden is generally known as one of the guys. Sure, she has some girl friends, but her companions are mostly male. She's always been rather sporty and athletic, preferring to spend her time playing some quodpot than gossiping and talking about clothes. Though, she does have the girly tendency to worry about her hair and sometimes her clothes whenever she's dressed up. It's probably the only thing that keeps her from turning into a full fledge "tomboy". Though it still doesn't help much when it comes to things like love and variances of it. Guys see her more as a friend than a potential girlfriend. Jokingly, they'd even call her "Eddie" sometimes.
Spencer is just brimming with energy, enough to rival any five year old on caffeine. Constantly she's bouncing off the walls, her hyperactive tendencies causing her to always be moving. Whether it be doing chores or going out to party, she's never doing nothing. When she's forced to sit in one spot for even a short period of time she gets fidgety and anxious. She's also very loud and well, noticeable. In the hallways, on the street, at the mall, you just can't not notice her. Her loud voice easily carries across the room and when she's excited she only gets louder. She's very bold and quite honestly doesn't mind being in the center of attention, though she doesn't strive for it. It wouldn't come as a surprise to many if Spencer were to announce she never slept and lived off of only caffeinated products. It's scary how much energy such a small girl has.
Upon meeting Spencer, many have fallen for her charm. Young or old, male or female, many find her infectious laugh and warm smile delightful company. She has an allure to her, captivating people's attention and drawing them to her like bees to honey. Around Spencer you can't help, but relax. She has a way of making everyone feel as if she and they have know each other for years when in reality it could just be minutes. It isn't hard getting comfortable around Spencer's presence. Her wit and confidence easily brushes aside awkward silences and she can bring the fun into almost any situation. Though, there have been those who don't take to Spencer's charm as positively as her friends and acquaintances.
Opinionated, more widely known as stubborn; that was Spencer. Once Spencer has got a notion set in her head she isn't easily swayed. She selfishly holds onto her own opinions, but she doesn't force it onto others. Though if someone tries to change her mind she gets defensive. Often, she finds herself in arguments because she's too close minded to listen to others. It doesn't happen quite often, but when someone does manage to change Spencer's opinions on a matter she tends to go around stomping her feet and pouting. Afterwards, she'll act as if she's always thought that way because she hates being wrong. It's been said that it's much like a five year old throwing a tantrum.
Spencer certainly doesn't beat around the bushes. If she has something to say, she says it. With Spencer, you don't have to be a mind reader to know what she's thinking. Though having someone tell you you look like crap can get pretty annoying. To which Spencer would retort that it's better to know the truth than be lied to. This is why she’s always insisting on people voicing their opinions rather than saving her feelings by lying. Unsurprisingly, most don't so over the years she's acquired a rather uncanny ability to spot lies. Of course there have been lies that go unnoticed, but most of the time she can tell right off the bat when someone's not being completely honest.
Spencer isn't short tempered (she may get annoyed a lot but never truly mad), but she sure is fiery tempered. When she's provoked she tends to lose it. She doesn't have any anger issues, but it does get scary when she's mad. She would throw a few crude and snide remarks around, maybe if she were aggravated enough she'd even throw a few solid objects. When she gets riled up there's no stopping her and if you make an enemy out of Spencer it's equivalent to declaring war. Calming down is easy for her, but forgiving is hard. It takes quite some time for her and sometimes, depending on the situation, she'll never forgive someone, holding a grudge against them.

Family Background:
Gavin Burleigh was the muggle twin brother of Janine Burleigh, Sophia Harwood's best friend. Sophia and Gavin had first met in the summer after Janine and Sophia's first year at Kameons and every summer after that they would see each other, but it wasn't until the summer before Janine and Sophia's seventh year that Gavin and Sophia started dating. They stayed together ever since and at the age of twenty, they married. It was a small and simple outdoor wedding in the Burleigh's spacious backyard with only thirty or so guests in attendance. After they were married, Sophia and Gavin moved into their own home in a friendly wizarding community.
Five years later, Eden Louise Burleigh was born on January the 12th. At the time, Gavin was a muggle vet and Sophia had postponed her career as a Healer to take care of her daughter. Growing up, Ambrosia was exposed to both the muggle and wizarding world. In and around her house and neighborhood, there was magic everywhere. Her mother always used magic around the house and she was taken to quodpot matches and other wizarding events often by her aunts and uncles. And whenever her father was home he'd take the whole family out to spend time together doing muggle things. They'd go to the park, the zoo, museums and amusement parks.
Eden's first sign of magic was when she was five at the park. She and her family were feeding ducks in the pond when the duck closest to Ambrosia turned blue and orange. Quickly, her mother casted the reverse charm and returned the duck to it's original color before any of the muggles would notice. Occasionally Eden would have other random bursts of magic, but by the time she turned seven they settled. Soon, she would be old enough to attend a magical school and Sophia had made arrangements to go back to her job as a healer as soon as Eden started school. The summer of the year Eden had turned eleven, she sent in an application to attend Kameons. A few months later, she was sent an acceptance letter. With the tuition paid by her parents and all her supplies bought, she was set to go.
Seeing as they lived in Texas and Kameons was in Maine, she and her parents boarded a plane to Maine to see Eden off for her first year. After that though, she's been going back and forth from Texas to Maine and back by herself. It doesn't bother her much as she's very fond of planes and really any muggle form of transportation. Now though, it's her seventh year at Kameons. One more year and she'll be out in the real world. It's surprising how it seemed like just yesterday her mother was getting teary eyed and her father doing his best not to lose it as well during her first year.
