"AND I HOPE THIS MAKES YOU HAPPY NOW,
THAT THE FLAME WE HAD IS BURNING OUT."

Born on May 2nd, Victoire Renee Weasley blessed the Weasley family with her birth, as she was the first of the next generation to be born. Because she was born on the anniversary of the Battle of Hogwarts, she was given the name Victoire, which stands for victory. She didn't have very long to be coddled and admired by her parents, aunts, and uncles. After she was born, she was graced with the presence of two younger siblings, as well as handfuls of cousins. There wasn't much time for her to be noted as a 'baby' as she had to grow up rather quickly.

As a child, Vic tended to be very responsible. She didn't like to be babied, simply because she never got to be treated as such. When her parents did treat her like she was younger, she got irritated and felt dependent upon them. She didn't like that, either. Instead, Victoire tried to behave like a perfectly well-behaved young lady. She didn't want to be seen as immature and whiny - especially around Teddy Lupin. He might as well have been family. At least, the Weasleys and Potters treated him as such. He often came to family dinners and spent holidays with them all. Vic and Ted got along famously, and were best friends at a young age. Because they were the oldest out of the whole bunch, they tended to get a little more respect from the younger ones. They rounded the kids up when their parents called for dinner, and they always led the games of Quidditch in the backyard.

Eventually, though, Ted left. Off to Hogwarts he went, two years prior than she was supposed to do so. She seemed to think that he didn't like her anymore. Else, why would he have left her? Victoire's pride was a little hurt as she was left to be the mature one amongst her siblings and cousins, alone. When Teddy visited for Christmas that year, Vic held back her emotions from him. This was the first lesson of life that led her to be the way she is currently. Since then, she has tried to hold back her feelings from everyone. She tries to be tough, strong, and not let things get to her. Instead, she lets it all out in the middle of the night, when no one can hear - either in her bed, or out among the stars.

Before going to Hogwarts, Vic was granted a special sort of treatment. Her family escorted her to Diagon Alley, where they shopped for her various school supplies. Because she was the first of the bunch to head to Hogwarts, she got all brand new books, quills, parchment, and other things. Plus, she got a snowy owl, whom she named Ellie. Ellie became one of Vic's best friends, and still is. She also entered Ollivander's for the first time. She tried only two wands before finding the one that was perfect for her - a 9 3/4 inch Mahogany wand with Veela hair. Veela hair, you ask? Wouldn't she have to be a Veela to be graced with such a wand? Well, yes. And, so she is. Since birth, Victoire Renee has been 1/8 Veela. Her beauty has become more profound as a result, but she doesn't let that effect her in any way. Even those who are beautiful have weaknesses, including Vic, with her sense of insecurity and loneliness.

She did get her chance to feel loved, though. It was brief, but Vic enjoyed the attention. As she was the first of them to go off to Hogwarts, her parents, uncles, and aunts were all pleased to see she was sorted into Gryffindor. As such, Victoire was showered with Gryffindor-themed things, like blankets, jackets, scarves, etc. It was a wonderful experience for her to be able to be appreciated and in the spotlight for once. She definitely didn't take advantage of it, and has never forgotten it. She is quite aware that her family is quite large and it is hard for her to get total appreciation from her family. Because that was one of the only times it actually happened, the memory has become her patronus.

Throughout her first years at Hogwarts, Victoire remained strong to herself. She and Teddy got closer as she entered Hogwarts. However, Ted had found himself a new friend - Jayson Abercrombie. Vic was certain, at first, that Ted would be embarrassed to hang out with her around people, since she was younger. However, that was the opposite. Jay embraced Vic's presence, and the three became the greatest of friends. They even became so close that everyone now acknowledged them as the new trio. They went everywhere together, including the shrieking shack. Teddy had inherited a slight bit of his father's werewolf capabilities, but he never actually changed into one. He still experienced horrible pains throughout his body, enough to drive him crazy. She and Jayson stood by his side through every full moon at Hogwarts, helping him cope with the pain and making sure he got through alright.

In her fourth year, something devastating happened. Her brother, Louis, was attacked by a werewolf and was killed. Victoire's heart might as well have shattered into pieces and burned. She remembers laying over his body, holding onto his mangled arm as professors attempted to pull her off. She screamed, crying her heart out. Eventually she left the scene and searched for the group that had been formed in 2015, the Paper Angels. They were supposedly graced with the intelligence to perform magic that others found extremely difficult. She found them and begged them to do something to help her brother. From that point on, after they reincarnated Louis, Vic pledged her allegiance to them. She took part in the ideas to bring others to life, others that would help the wizarding world as they know it become stronger and more peaceful.

Victoire has now become the leader of the Paper Angels. She leads those who need leading, and helps to make the world a better place. At least, that's what she thinks she's doing. Vic is also extremely focused on her schoolwork, making sure to come out on top when she eventually graduates. She wants to ensure to her family that she is one of the best, not only in her family but the wizarding world itself. She's determined to make something of herself, and is not willing to lose any of those close to her in the process.
