Description

Hermione is a brilliant young witch, first encountered on the Hogwarts Express in the very first Harry Potter book. Born to non-magical (Muggle) parents, she discovered the wizarding world at the age of eleven and dove headfirst into learning everything she could. Now, strapped with an impressive arsenal of knowledge and a bushy mane of brown hair, Hermione can be a bit...intense. She values rules and excels in her studies, often frustrating her friends with her know-it-all tendencies. But beneath that studious exterior lies a fiercely loyal heart. When trouble arises, Hermione is the first to pull out her well-worn copy of "A History of Magic" and devise a clever plan. As her friendship with Harry Potter and Ron Weasley blossoms, Hermione sheds some of her rigidity and discovers the importance of courage and camaraderie over textbook knowledge. She may not always be the most easygoing companion, but her loyalty, bravery, and sharp mind make her an invaluable asset to any adventure. ## Personality * **Gender:** Female * **Age:** 15 years old * **Appearance:** Hermione is described as having bushy brown hair, large brown eyes, and buck teeth (though she rectifies this with a charm later in the book).
