Personality: Ferociously independent, Vicky typically shrinks away from forming any serious attachments with anything or anyone. However, she isn't inaccessible. She does have friends, and she is closer with some than with others. She does care what happens to them, but she doesn't depend on them for anything. She doesn't depend on anyone for anything, which she learned at a young age thanks to having three older brothers. Vicky had to know how to stand up for herself, so she is rather assertive and confident, sometimes bordering on aggressive. She enjoys Quidditch, but is strictly a spectator after her tryout, as she would rather be the team than play on a team and sees her priorities in Charms Club. Her brothers frequently played Quidditch over the summer holidays, which took their concentration off of picking on and bullying her around.

Vicky is brave in the sense of the word where it doesn't include stupidity. She's very nearly fearless, but that doesn't make her act out idiotically. She will fight back on anything and doesn't back down easily or gracefully. She hardly has a graceful bone in her body, and is rather prone to stumbling and other accidents. Because of her brothers, she tends to like hanging out with guys more than hanging out with girls, but that does not mean that she doesn't have female friends. It was sort of a consequence of the living arrangement, but it didn't extend very far beyond that. Her only female example until she went to school was her mother, and she wasn't really the best example to go by. Because of that, Vicky never had dolls - at least not ones with heads. She never had pretty party dresses or played dress-up with other girls. She never had tea parties. Instead, she ran around in the dirt and got scraped up climbing trees with the boys. Her father couldn't have been more proud.

She really didn't figure out how to be a girl until she got to Hogwarts, but she is in touch with her girlish side. She likes chocolate as much as any girl out there, and can't seem to get enough of old romance novels a la Jane Austen and the like, though she doesn't bury her face in them. Vicky likes being active and horsing around with her guy friends, whether that involves punching them around or wrestling them to the floor. Sitting still does not work well with her energy level. Rest is just something that is necessary, and Vicky would much rather go without it. If she is forced to remain in one spot for any period of time, such as if she were in the hospital, she is likely to both complain until she's blue in the mouth as well as attempt to ignore orders. She will try to stand up and move, ignoring whatever pain she may be in in order to make herself ambulatory. Vicky frequently ignores signs of her own failing health and will not seek medical help until forced by someone else or until it gets extremely bad. Colds are no reason to seek out the hospital wing.

With boyfriends, Vicky tends to act no differently than she does with her male friends. She will taunt and tease and wrestle just as often, making it crucial for the boy to understand she isn't doing it to be cruel. While she may have gotten in touch with her feminine side at Hogwarts, she still doesn't know how to act in a romantic relationship. It sort of makes her more genuine than a girl who acts differently with friends and boyfriends. She doesn't have many secrets. Vicky inherited her brothers' knacks for trouble a bit insofar as she finds troublemakers amusing and does not shy away from joining in some of the time. She doesn't care what anyone thinks of her.

History: At five years old, Kellan Frobisher resolved that he would be the first person on the surface of the sun. At seven, that he would be a fantastic musician and tour the world. At nine, that he would be Minister of Magic. Born to two wizarding parents, both of less than pure blood, Kellan grew up knowing little of the Muggle world around him. It was only a matter of deciding which school to attend once he began showing signs of magic. His mother had gone to Beauxbatons, while his father went to Hogwarts. Upon receiving his Hogwarts letter, he knew that was the place for him - if only by default. Sorted into Gryffindor, Kellan made it onto the house Quidditch team in his third year, taking a position as Keeper for the team. He hated going to classes and wanted to spend most of his time sleeping, eating, and on the pitch. He'd long since changed his mind about becoming Minister and was then set on becoming a famous Quidditch star. Regardless, he ended a shop owner in wizarding Ireland, which also catered to Muggles, with his knowledge based on the teachings from his Muggle Studies courses.

It was in that shop that he met Tabitha McDuff. She became a frequent customer of his, and he soon learned the basics about her. He learned that she was a Muggle, and he therefore had to tread carefully if he wanted to tread anywhere at all. It was for that reason that he maintained an acquaintance with her for over a year before moving to anything else. He couldn't deny that he was glad he did it that way, and he learned even more about her over dinner. Kellan learned that Tabitha was an only child, like himself. He pondered how to tell her that he was a wizard later that evening, if the need for it should ever arise in the future. Kellan didn't always come complete with a battle plan, but in that case, he thought it was necessary.

It turned out that that plan had been a good idea, though he waited until only a few weeks before they were married to tell her. Her reaction was not the best, considering how she avoided him for about a week before letting him explain further. Their relationship took a hit and was never exactly the same - though Kellan thought he'd fixed everything absolutely. Tabitha was still able to be happy with him, and love him despite his shortcomings, and that was what mattered. In compensation for their equally lonely childhoods, they'd discussed having many children, and Tabitha had her heart set on girls outnumbering boys. When Garrett was born, she knew she could still get that wish, and she dreamed up the ideal future for her son and three daughters, with Garrett as the perfect, protective older brother she'd always wanted. Even before leaving the hospital with her husband and new baby, Tabitha had filled her brain with imaginary plans.

Two years later, Robert was born, and Tabitha still held out hope for two more daughters. They would just each have a keeper. While she was busy trying to keep them safe and out of trouble, her husband was encouraging it. On his watch, the boys climbed as many trees as they wanted, learning how to pick themselves up when they fell out of them. His boys would not be wimps or unused to strenuous physical activity. Tabitha got pregnant a third time, and because she'd had the image of two girls and two boys in her mind for so long, she was sure it was a girl throughout the entire pregnancy. But Ewan was born: another son for his father and a bit of a disappointment for his mother, who was beginning to doubt she would ever get the daughter she dreamed of. Four years after Ewan, though, she did, and Victoria was born. Tabitha liked to think her baby daughter was the spitting image of herself when she was a child, as they did have the same nose, and that it had to mean she would be exactly like herself when she grew older.

Much to Tabitha's dismay, her precious daughter behaved like her rambunctious sons. Rather than cry when the three of them ganged up on her and picked on her in their own ways, Vicky fought back fiercely, not letting them get away with it without some retribution. When Garrett popped the head off one of her dolls, Vicky worked all five extremities from one of his action figures. When Robert tugged her hair one too many times, Vicky hit him in the face with whatever was closest, usually a magazine or a newspaper of some sort. When Ewan left her in a tree, she punched him in the stomach upon her return to the ground. Vicky spent as much time on time out as her brothers, and it didn't exactly get better when Garrett was in Hogwarts for nine months of the year. Robert and Ewan joined forces to attempt to compensate for the torment that the eldest was no longer around to inflict on the little girl.

When both Garrett and Robert were in school, Ewan tried to keep up the pattern and give his sister enough grief for all three brothers, but he failed miserably. Ewan had a habit of reusing old tricks, and Vicky wasn't falling for them. With nothing else to do aside from get beaten at things his older brothers had been able to do successfully, Ewan regretfully started getting along with Vicky at a young age. Midway through Robert's first year at Hogwarts, and at the tender age of eight, Ewan Frobisher was able to not pick on his sister all hours of the day. Obviously, they were by no means the cookie-cutter siblings, but he could tolerate the four-year-old, who just wanted to climb trees and make a fort out of a sheet and a chair. She'd never been allowed in her brothers' fort, so she made her own, leaving it up until her mother stole the sheet for washing.

The good thing about being the only girl was that she got her own room. Garrett, Robert, and Ewan all roomed together until the eldest reached puberty, at which time he was moved into Kellan's old office room. Vicky always had an escape when she wasn't in the mood to be picked on at all, let alone fight back. She was used to fending for herself, which allowed for a greater sense of independence than her clannish brothers had. Ewan had felt the loss most severely, and the dependence on the other two was what made him reuse tricks and fail at the task the first two had left for him. By the time Vicky headed off for Hogwarts, her parents' marriage had been eaten away at by the three boys and the apparent fact that Kellan could not sire a feminine child, and they divorced in her third year after seeking marriage counseling. Garrett and Robert were already out of the house, and Garrett was in a longstanding relationship, contemplating proposing.

For some reason or another, not that neither disliked their mother, both Vicky and Ewan chose to live primarily with their father, though Kellan and Tabitha had worked out joint custody between the two and were able to meet cordially enough when required. The summer after her third year, Vicky's oldest brother got married just before the wizarding world started falling apart, Voldemort returning the next year according to those who believed Harry Potter. Vicky and her family were among those, though she did not seek to join Dumbledore's Army in her fourth year. The summer before her fifth year, Robert got married as well, Garrett's baby son serving as ring bearer. Despite being rather young for both weddings, her brothers let Vicky serve as a bridesmaid: a position she figured was bestowed on her as an apology for the years of torture. Garrett may have grown out of popping the heads off her dolls, but Robert would always tug her hair one too many times. Fortunately, the severity of the blows dealt him varied depending on Vicky's mood, and usually they were rather light.

As the war waged over the summer between her fifth and sixth years, Vicky stayed close to her youngest brother (who was still living at home due to procrastination and later out of desire to wait to move out until the war was over) and father, as she didn't yet have her Trace lifted. The trio learned that Garrett's wife had been summoned to the Ministry and imprisoned in Azkaban for being a Muggleborn. There was nothing they could do about it, and Garrett's only concern was for their son. After the war, Maitland was released from Azkaban a little worse for the wear, but Garrett kept each of his parents informed of her progress, sending letters to Vicky as well once school started back up.

Astrology: Expect stamina, incredible courage, intense and stormy emotions, burning idealism, and indomitable will. Gryffindor Scorpios are never drawn in shades of pastel; they are always blood red and mesmerizing gold. There are few followers born under these aspects; Scorpios born into this house tend to be either leaders or loners. They are well placed on the Quidditch field, where their natural competitive streak and their great store of personal energy make them natural Beaters (or, really, naturals at any position on the field). Expect them to get into frequent duels, and expect them to gravitate naturally to DADA, for all Scorpios are fascinated by anything dark and forbidden, and Gryffindor Scorpios will want to take their place as defenders as early in their careers as possible. Expect passion. Expect wisdom. But don't expect a lot of time to take a breather. Many people born under this aspect also end up as Aurors; they're the perfect "bad cops" to the "good cop" Libra wizards.
