Name: Belinda Alice Longbottom

House: Hufflepuff

Parents: Luna Lovegood-Longbottom and Neville Longbottom

Age: 13

Looks: Belinda has the soft, shiny, platinum blond hair of her mother, and vibrant turquoise eyes that are all her own. Athletically built but still a bit curvy, she is pretty, fresh, and young.

Personality: Sweet and friendly, Belinda is often thought of as the “little sister,” even by people of no relation to her. She is very innocent and gullible, but also strangely wise, often saying just what a person needs to hear when they need to hear it.

History: The youngest child of Neville and Luna, her middle name is that of Neville’s mother. Growing up in London at the end of and after the Wizarding Wars, Belinda, her older brother Frank, and her parents were and are very close. Largely because of the teasing and censure they were put through in their own lives, Neville and Luna worked to make sure that their family unit was tight and secure. They also raised their children to be accepting and tolerant of everyone, and to stand up for what is right.

Friends with the Weasley, Potter, Black, and Tonks-Lupin families, the Longbottoms are considered to be just another branch of the large family tree. Belinda often spent time at the Weasley shop, messing about with the toys or playing dolls with Emily, Juliet, and Kiley. She was occasionally looked at as a bit of an annoyance that tags along after them, but her personality is such that no one stays angry or annoyed with her for long.

Going to Hogwarts at the age of ten, Belinda was relieved to be sorted into the same house as her brother, though she would have had friends to look out for her in any house but Slytherin. She quickly took to Divination when it was offered in her third year and has proved to be exceptionally apt in the subject. Both Firenze and Professor Trelawny hail her as one of their best and brightest students. Like Neville and Frank, she is strong in the subject of Herbology, also, and capable of performing well in Defense Against the Dark Arts. She is abysmal at the rest of her subjects but always tries her best no matter what.
