TABITHA RENEE LIDDEL
INTRODUCTION
Full name: tabitha renee liddel.
Nickname(s): tabby, tabs.
Age: twenty four.
Gender: female.
House: hufflepuff.
Year: graduated.
Occuption: healer.
APPEARANCE
Play By: naomi scott.
Style: I've always been the sort of girl who could compose her outfits for whatever she was planning to do. I've got my dirty and ripped jeans for when I went on hikes and camping or went mudsliding for fun, and then I've got my cute little flowy dresses for when I feel more girly. So really, I guess it depends on what it is I want to wear and what it is I'm doing throughout the day. Though I can say that recently my weekend attire has been a comfy shirt and sweat pants to laze around the house with Teagan in.
Distinguishing Marks: I've got one smallish tattoo, a tramp stamp of sorts, that has Teagan's name in cursive and then her date of birth underneath. Sure, I know its a little odd or maybe should have been placed somewhere else, but that was what I wanted so its what I got.teagan alice liddel

Personality:
Probably another one of those things that one shouldn't really admit to but when its that much apart of a person it simply is something that should be brought up. I'm as stubborn as an Ox, I'm pretty sure it doesn't help any of the other traits that I've got, but once I put my mind to something good luck getting me to change it. At least, not without some reallllly valid points that are able to sway my line of thought. And even then I'll only give in when I've got no other chance and am able to set my pride aside for the amount of time for me to really think it over and realize you may be right. However, it was my stubbornness, and sense of not wanting to disrupt something that also made me leave behind someone that I cared a fair amount about. But lets not focus on that, besides the thing you just gotta watch out for is me not biting off your ear when I realize you're making more sense than I would like you to.
I absolutely hate this about myself, no really I do. And I think it has a lot to do with the fact that growing up both of my parents, especially my father, were waaaaay too overprotective of my younger brother and myself. Something which I swore I wouldn't be when it came to my kids, and as it turns out I'm just like my father. No really, when it came to the first babysitters that she had I ran blood tests on them and tried to get some background checks on the people, which ultimately scared them away and from that point I knew I needed to calm down. But really, I'm way more protective than I know I need to be, and if it doesn't drive T crazy it drives myself crazy when I sit down and really think about it. However, after really thinking about it I think I've always been that way with the people I care about. I take them under my wing of protection and the chances of them being able to escape that once they've made it there, are really....quite impossible. Trust me, some have tried it before because I drove them insane with how protective I am and they just had to end up giving into it. Yep, its that bad.
This may go side by side with the the fact that I tend to know a bunch of random facts, but I'd definitely say that I've got this quirky side to me. Some people may find it annoying, since I'll blurt random things out at random times and may come off as rather snobbish, and I have tried to correct myself. But I've found its actually relatively hard to correct something that one has been doing for the majority of their life, besides I'd at least like to think as an excuse that I can't really help it. On top of that, I'm the sort of girl who has no problem suddenly breaking into some sort of awkward dance, or having some sort of random joke come to mind and then laughing about it in a rather serious time. Probably not the best thing ever, but I'd like to think that it at least helps to lighten the mood when its needed. Also, and maybe this isn't a quirk as much as it is a habit, but I think walking around with bare feet is much better than always having to wear shoes. Well, except with some circumstances, such as with work. But otherwise you can bet I'll be walking around without shoes on.
Not to boast or anything, but I'm a smart girl. No really, I am. I have been ever since I was a kid, and I've got some evidence to support that I've either got a totally fantastic memory or I've got at least some photogenic memory to me. I mean it, once I see something a couple of times I am able to remember it until I feel I don't need it anymore. It was something that helped me a great deal through my years at Hogwarts and something that helped me even more when it came to T and the schooling I went through when it came to becoming a healer. I know a number of random facts that I've sort of just held onto over the years and then there are the things that I chose to never really forget, whether they be people, or if its some sort of story I read to T when she was a baby. It doesn't really matter, and frankly its one of those things that can make me come off as rather snobbish from time to time, but more often than not I simply like to think of myself as knowingly intelligent.
Maybe this comes with the whole being a parent thing but I've found after I had T, I was much more of a softer person. I found myself focusing on how other people were doing and how they were feeling and if there were things I could do to make their time easier. Of course, this might also simply have to do with the amount of stuff I see simply throughout my job. Either way, I've more more empathetic than I used to be and while sometimes I find it to be rather annoying and blame it on female hormones, when it comes down to it I think it was for the better. I was never cold or anything like that, I just think that I was more selective in who I gave that sort of loving nature towards, and since I've expanded my horizons I've changed and its for the better, and thats what I hope to continue to do. And of course, this is the sort of preferred thing is it not? So why not let it remain as it is, maybe I'll get something good out of it.

General History:
Born and raised into a very military family, my parents never even thought about the possibility that they would have magical children. But hey, when your first born daughter (myself) gets a letter to this school in London for a school for Wizards and Witches, it becomes rather apparent that they in fact have, a Witch as a daughter. They were uncertain at first, but when my father told me thought that there might be some magical blood somewhere in the family line it wasn't that surprising when at least one of their children was a witch. So when September came around, I found myself traveling from America all the way to London, and then of course to Hogwarts where I was sorted into the house known as Hufflepuff.
I can honestly say that those years at Hogwarts were some of the most intimidating and fun times of my life, I mean I was always the sort of girl who was interested in being around people. And sure, there were times where I was shy and stayed in the background but really as the years went by I found myself with a very tight nit group of friends. Hell, when my sixth year came around I even got my first boyfriend and we were more than just girlfriend and boyfriend, I'd like to think of him being my best friend. The person that I could go to anything about, even if it was a "girl problem", and maybe there were some awkward times and times where we fought over stupid things, and then some not so stupid things. But really, I think that we were pretty much known as the "it" couple.
We stayed together over the summer, and always made a point to go out on new adventures together, or simply walking around Hogsmeade when we had nothing else to do. When we graduated from Hogwarts we each had our own plans, but that somehow managed to include us remaining together. But shortly after I hit the age of eighteen something unexpected happened, I found out the one thing that I probably didn't ever want to hear before marriage. And what was that? Well, it was that I, Tabitha Renee Liddel, was pregnant.
Alright, alright. So maybe getting pregnant at the age of eighteen wasn't the best thing, but frankly speaking it wasn't like I'd gone a head and planned it or anything like that. In fact, as far as I was concerned I wasn't planning to have kids until at least twenty six, if I had a real say in it. But we were in love, and physical nature tends to go with two young adults with hardy sex drives, and we were stupid enough to think that just birth control would be enough. It was stupid, I know it was and when I found out I was pregnant you can bet I freaked out. I thought about even giving the baby up, or having an abortion, but when I talked to the doctors about it they said at least wait for the first ultra sound.
And let me tell you, the moment I saw the forming baby on that ultrasound I was hooked, it was the first time I'd ever felt love at first sight. That this thing inside me was my own, and that there was no way in hell I was ever going to give my baby up. However, the thought of telling this baby's father freaked me out, beyond belief. I didn't want to scare him away, I didn't want him to tell me to get an abortion in the heat of the moment or anything like that. But all in all, I didn't want to lose him, not because of a child. Plus, he was just beginning the career that he'd always wanted, and there was no way that I could take him away from that just because I was pregnant. So I did the only thing that I could really think of doing, and that was break up and run away as quickly as possible.
I knew that by doing this I was robbing my child of their father, but at this point I was sure I could do it on my own. My mother raised me and my brother whenever my father would be sent off to fight or to do some renewal of basic training for those under his command, and I was strong. Or at least that was what I had to keep on telling myself when I was packing up my clothes, because once I broke up with him I knew it would only be a matter of time before he came after me. He would want a real reason, because as far as he was concerned up until this point everything had been fine, we'd been together for two years and had barely fought. Of course, I felt horrid, I can still remember how wet my cheeks were and how much sniffling I did as I packed my bags. It wasn't like I was leaving him because I hated him, I was leaving him because I felt like it was the right thing to do.
Needless to say I managed to get away before he found me, got on a train and decided that I would get off where the last stop took me, and as it would be it was in Muggle London, I managed to get myself a flat there with the money I'd saved up over the years. And then of course my mother later sent me some money when she found out that I was pregnant with her grandchild. And I managed to get into school for healing, something which I'd always found myself wanting to do, and let me tell you those nine months went by way too fast. And on April 20th, I found myself holding onto a firmly wrapped in a blanket little girl, and I named her Teagan Alice Liddel, and you can bet from that day on she had me wrapped around her little finger.
Six years has passed since that point, and I'm one of the full time healers over at St. Mungos, dealing with some of the more severe spell cases and dealing with life or death sort of dealings. Although, I've also dealt with child birth as well, seeing as how after I had my own kid I decided that looking into taking care of children and their entrance into the world, was something I was very interested in. So now Teagan is in Kindergarden and I'm working basically full time, I've got a couple friends who watches Teagan when I'm at work and I've been able to raise her basically by my self, and as for talking to her father...I haven't seen him since I left, but I can still say my heart races when I think about him.
