Wand: Pine, Phoenix Feather 9"
Wand Wood Description: The pine wand always chooses an independent, loner-type owner who may be perceived as an outcast, intriguing and perhaps even mysterious. Pine wands enjoy being used creatively, and unlike some others, will adapt without protest to new methods and spells. “Many wandmakers insist that pine wands are able to detect, and perform best for, owners who are destined for long lives, including Garrick Ollivander who had never personally known the master of a pine wand to die young”. This wand is most sensitive to non-verbal magic.
Appearance: Lexi has long golden brown hair with murky green eyes. She's on the shorter side of an average height standing at 5'5. She's fairly curvy, but isn't unhealthy. She looks the way a normal human being should. She often times uses a lot of eyeliner, making her eyes pop.
Personality: Lexi is what you would call a free spirit. She doesn't care much what people think of her. She's generally happy and excited about life in general. She's a very social person making her perfect for both the jobs she takes on. She's a bit of a day dreamer, coming up with elaborate futures for herself and others.

What He/She Loves: Lexi loves singing and performing. There is no place she'd rather be than a stage, though her grandfather's icecream shop is a close second.
What He/She Hates: Lexi can't stand people who are quick to judge. Often times people see her as nothing but a school drop out.
History: Lexi's mother was the daughter of the popular Florean Fortescue. In 1996 Florean was kidnapped and supposedly killed by death eaters. Her mother was deeply saddened by his death, though she learned how to cope. She took over her father's ice cream shop, giving up any of her own dreams. Several years after the death of her father Kayla Forescue met a muggle man. He was a one night stand, she never even learned his name. Unfortunately for her, this man turned out to be the father of her child. Alexandra was born on a stormy night just before midnight. Her mother, who had been planning to give up her daughter, chose at the last second to keep the baby.
For the first three years of her life it was just Lexi and her mother, then Kayla met another man. This time a wizard. He was romantic and charming, the two fell in love. They got married two years after meeting with five year old Lexi as their flower girl. Her mother became pregnant with another baby shortly after their marriage, though this time she miscarried. It was during the grief she felt for the loss of her unborn child that she screamed at Lexi that she "wished she had never been born". Though the two made up rather quickly, these words plagued Lexi for the rest of her life.
Just before Lexi was sent to Hogwarts her mother became pregnant again. She and her husband, John, had been trying for years. The two were ecstatic and Lexi tried to be happy for them, but she knew that this was the baby her mother wanted. She didn't want Lexi. Lexi wasn't even John's daughter. While Lexi was away at Hogwarts Kayla gave birth to a healthy baby boy, Lexi didn't even find out her half brother had been born until a week later.
As Lexi grew older she let her mother play happy family with her husband and son, Lexi knew how to fend for herself. She fell in love with music and would often times go out with her best friend, together the two had formed a band and would play in parks for some extra money.
When she was 15 Lexi decided to drop out of Hogwarts. She had her OWLs already, she didn't really care for a job requiring anything else. Instead she wanted to pursue her music career. Though she had originally wanted to move to New York, the only way Kayla and John agreed to support her was if she took over the ice cream shop. Seeing no better alternative, Lexi agree.
Since then she and her partner have been trying to get themselves a record deal. She continues to work in her grandfather's shop during the days, going out and playing various venues at night.
