Personality
Likes:
- Creative writing
- Reading, her family owns a bookshop.
- Music, writing, listening, playing guitar, you name it. She likes to sing too, but not in front of other people.
- Messing around with her friends, she doesn't take life too seriously, and is often a 'disruptive influence' in the classroom.
- Commentating on quidditch, she'd love to be a professional commentator one day, though she's a halfway decent player too.
Dislikes:
- Anything boring. She can't deal with things being dull.
- Pretentious people, life's too short to pretend to be better than other people.
- Injustice, just picking on someone because of something they can't help.
Strengths:
- General intelligence, she can get away with messing around in class and catching up in her own time. (Although she does stuggle sometimes, she's never afraid to ask for help.)
- Sticks up for people when she sees something she doesn't like going on, she's really defensive of people who can't defend themselves.
- She's quite funny, although her humour can be quite crass and sly. Theres a lot of sarcasm, although she doesn't mean a lot of it.
-Extremely resourceful and street smart, she can just get on with things and deal with the way things are around her.
Weaknesses:
- Can be quite harsh. She doesn't mean to be, but her dry wit and sarcastic humour can often come across as harsh.
- Ruthless towards people she doesn't like, or has reason to behave in that manner towards.
- Because she can't deal with things being dull or boring, she's often disruptive. And while a lot of people will laugh with her and at her antics, it can really piss off some of the more hardworking students.

- Funny/witty
- Moralistic
Negative traits:
- Disruptive
- Harsh
- Ruthless
Background
While Autumn was born in England, to a muggle mother, her family had moved across to the states when she was two years old, because her Father, who was from the states, had gotten himself a job as a professor at the Salems Witches Institute in America, the school which Autumn would later attend. Her mother had ran a bookshop, which she packed up and moved to America with her husband and by that time, five children, with Autumn as the youngest.
She showed no signs of being magical at all, until she was two years old and she started to show signs of being a metamorphagus, such as changing her hair colour and morphing to look like her favourite story book characters and such. This was to the dismay of her elder sister, Summer, who was already jealous of one of her brothers, and envied her sisters abilities.
While Summer was never outright horrible to her sister, she always made sure she was the outgoing one of the pair, the one with the friends, who looked better in make up, and that her sister could 'tag along' but had to keep quiet because it was embarrassing to have her around. This would have knocked Autumns self confidence if she wasn't as headstrong as she was, leaving her sister to be the popular queen bee type of girl she wanted to be, and keeping to her only friend, a son of another professor who worked with their dad, and developing her own hobbies and interests.
The Grey family moved back to Britian when Autumn was sixteen, leaving her to start Hogwarts in her sixth year without knowing anyone. She hadn't minded the fresh start, as an all girls school frustrated her, and having her dad as her professor was also mildly annoying, but that wasn't too bad. She was excited to be going to Hogwarts, and actually going to school with her brother as well.

Family Background
Marlene had run a bookshop in London for many years, and used to be close to her over-controlling parents until she ended up eloping with the young American who she'd met whilst volunteering at a summer camp in America. Her parents hadn't approved, even less so after it was revealed that he was a wizard. They'd lived in England, with Cody working in Diagon Alley, and Marlene working the bookshop, until he was offered a job back in the states. By this time, they'd had their fifth, and final, child, so decided to pack up and move back to the states.
Cody's father had abandoned him and his when he was young, and his mother had passed away when he was in his early twenties. With no siblings or inheritance, he made it on his own, travelling and writing research papers on magical beasts and their habitats, which would later earn him his teaching job at Salems.
Neither side of the family was particularly wealthy, nor exactly poor. Both sides are relatively small, and surprisingly average.
