User:Jack "BtR" Saxon/Fay Dunbar's friend draft

This witch (b. 1980) attended Hogwarts School of Witchcraft and Wizardry as a Gryffindor from 1991 onwards, and was a classmate of Harry Potter. She shared a dormitory in Gryffindor Tower with Lavender Brown, Hermione Granger, Parvati Patil and her best friend.

In her third year, she took Arithmancy, which she found was too difficult for her, Divination, taught by Sybill Trelawney, and Care of Magical Creatures, which she looked forward to, though she wished Vincent Crabbe and Gregory Goyle hadn't taken it too. She couldn't believe it when Dumbledore told them that Dementors were at the school entrances, and could not wait until the holidays to get away. Providing she was not a Muggle-born, she presumably graduated in 1998.

Early life
The ginger-haired witch was born in 1980 or 1979 and received her Hogwarts acceptance letter in 1991. After purchasing her wand and equipment from Diagon Alley, she began her first year at Hogwarts School of Witchcraft and Wizardry.

First and second years
Being sorted into Gryffindor House by the Sorting Hat upon her arrival, her common room was in Gryffindor Tower. To enter, she had to say "Caput Draconis" to the portrait of the Fat Lady. Despite what others said, she insisted that the Fat Lady was not really fat, but was just "big boned". She shared a dormitory with Lavender Brown, Parvati Patil, Hermione Granger and a brown-haired witch, the latter of which she befriended. The two girls were practically inseperable, never being seen apart from eachother.

Their friendship was unlikely, as the ginger-witch's friend was a Quidditch fanatic, wanting to play Beater on the Gryffindor Quidditch team while she, herself, couldn't keep up with the sport, as it was too fast-paced for her. Both of them disliked Draco Malfoy, Vincent Crabbe and Gregory Goyle, and neither of them wanted to have any classes with any of them.

The ginger-girl hated Potions class, saying that the Potions Classroom smelt terrible. She also did not like the teacher, Professor Severus Snape, who always favoured his own house, Slytherin, over her house.

At the end of her second year, when her class had to choose their elective subjects, she chose Care of Magical Creatures, as did her best-friend, presumably believing that Professor Silvanus Kettleburn was still teaching, Divination, as did all the other girls in her dorm, and Arithmancy with Professor Septima Vector. It is likely that she planned to use a Time-Turner to do this, or Minerva McGonagall arranged it as she did for Hermione, as Arithmancy was in the same time as Divination, unless she had a specialized timetable.

Third year
"I can't believe they've bought Dementors in to guard Hogwarts. I'm never going near the forest again, I'll tell you that!"

- She speaks to Hermione Granger regarding the Dementors placed around the school.

After the summer holidays, the Gryffindor witch returned to Hogwarts, though this time Dementors were standing guard at every entrance. She said that she could not believe that the Ministry of Magic had stationed them around the school, and told Hermione that she was afraid of going anywhere near the Forbidden Forest. However, she was also looking forward to Care of Magical Creatures with Rubeus Hagrid, who had taken over from Professor Kettleburn and would, from then on, be held at Hagrid's hut on the edge of the forest.
