Biography:Luna grew up in an interesting home, what with her father's beliefs and all. It was cheerful, nonetheless, and influenced her tremendously. Of course, not everything stays perfect. When she was 9, tragedy struck. Her mother, a very creative witch, had been experimenting with a new spell she had just invented. The spell went haywire, and in turn Luna's mother died.
This event left a lasting mark on Xenophilius and Luna, the former of which ended up raising her. The two carried on with their dreamy lives together up until Luna was 11. That year, as was normal, she received her acceptance letter for Hogwarts. Excited, she at once began packing her trunk with trinkets to ward off blibbering humdingers. You never know when one will sneak up behind you!
~Sorting~
Luna glanced around the hall, not really at the people, or the furniture, or even the floors and walls. "Luna Lovegood!" a voice called, and she slightly shifted her focus.
They must want me to come forward, I suppose, for sorting. She half skipped, half walked, to the stool and sat down, smiling. An old hat was placed upon her head, and she waited, staring blankly.
"You seem to be quite intelligent..." a voice said from above her.
Oh an enchanted hat! This is wonderful! Now if only I could find a moon frog here! I believe you can hear my thoughts?"Well yes... you must be rather well learned to have guessed so. Even with your strange sense of reality... Such a way of looking at things! And a bright mind, nonetheless. It must be...""RAVENCLAW!"Luna grinned, sure this must be good. Ravenclaw sounded fantastical and beautiful and she already had a wondrous feeling about it. Looking up, she wondered if her mother and father had been in the same house. The thought was merely out of curiosity as she knew her parents would not have cared about houses. Maybe this year she'll discover a nargle!
