AFTER THE SECOND WIZARDING WAR…
the girl had never been one to stand on the front lines; she was always a little overlooked. that changed, however, when she joined the DA, and later, fought with them at the battle of hogwarts. the battle left her with scars; both physical and mental. she wasn’t really prepared for all the things happening around her, so after the battle, she felt like she needed a break. she took a year off, and traveled around europe - doing some soul searching, and all that.
when she came back, it was back to quidditch training and trying out for teams. no matter how hard she tried, however, no team would take her. made a pretty big dent in her confidence, but she pulled through, and took all her quidditch knowledge to the daily prophet instead. now she just gets to watch the games and write about them - which is great, but every time she watches a game, she just wishes it was her on one of those broomsticks.
Despite her efforts, Alicia was never quite as talented as her other friends at quidditch. She attempted to try out for a number of different teams, getting turned down each time. However, she used her quidditch knowledge to create a career writing as a quidditch correspondent for the Daily Prophet.
despite everything that happened, alicia hasn’t lost her spice. she still stands up for her what she believes in, and is not scared to speak up if she thinks someone (or something) is being treated unfairly. she forgets to filter her words sometimes, however, and this can lead to some unfortunate situations.
she’s been thinking of branching out and writing articles for the daily prophet about other things than just quidditch, but she hasn’t really made up her mind yet about what those articles would exactly be about. sure, she has a bunch of interests, but which one does she know enough about?
during her year of traveling, alicia found out that she is pansexual. rather than falling for one specific gender, the girl found out she’s very much attracted to who they are as a person.
