Personality: Susan is a friendly girl, if you're nice back. She has many issues, however. As an overweight child, she went through many issues regarding that, and much bullying. The bullying ended up making Susan much more shy than she originally was, and hurt her confidence permanently. She won't really stick up for herself without backup around, and won't argue with someone, even if they are obviously wrong with what they are saying. With her confidence issues, Susan doesn't like how she is 100%, but has been working on it. Being so shy hurts Susan with making friends as well, as she is never sure whether the other person will hurt her or not. Most of the time she's fine, however.

If you know Susan, she is one of the nicest people around. She'll help you with your homework, or help you feel better to the best for her abilities. As long as you don't bring up questions about her family, she's fine. She won't bring up any sensitive subjects either, since she knows just how much they can hurt. Susan will talk for ages with her closer friends, about almost anything. However, she isn't one to bring up her past or things she likes. She'd rather hear about the other person and answer any questions they may have. To see Susan at her happiest, you just have to see her taking a walk or spending time doing Herbology, as those are some of the things that make her most happy. Her cat is also very close to her, and in her dorm room they are basically attached at the hip. She is also fairly talkative when at Dumbledore's Army meetings.

Susan is a hard worker, but no overachiever. She'll do her best to get a great grade- especially to make her family happy- but if she doesn't, it isn't that big of a deal to her. Following the stereotype for her house, Susan is a loyal friend that'll stick with you until the end. Even if you have different views, or maybe hurt her in some small way, she'll try to fix things up and make everything better. Susan is also, sadly, somewhat depressed. Learning she lost so much of her family to Voldemort and then having her aunt killed by him years later has certainly taken it's toll on her. She tries to stay upbeat, but it can be hard, especially when people bring her family up. Her depression can bring down some of her habits, bit she or her friends can force her out of it when needed.

i'm a hufflepuff, we're true to the end.
united we stand, so I'll stand with my friends

Father: Jeremy Thomas Bones - Halfblood - deceased
Mother: Alexandra Rose Bones - Pureblood - deceased
Siblings: none
Others: Amelia Susan Bones - aunt - Head of Department of Magical Law Enforcement - deceased
Peter John Bones - uncle - lower Ministry Worker
Hometown: Rye, England
Current Residence: Hogwarts, or her home with her uncle in London
History:Susan was born to Jeremy and Alexandra in the small town of Rye, England. She was named after her aunt Amelia Bones, who was already working in the ministry. She was also a fairly fat baby, and continued to be so for much of her childhood. The day of her birth was a confusing one, as it was the day her parents decided to move into Rye in order to protect their daughter during the First Wizarding War. They were a fairly rich family, with much power and respect. Afraid of her being hurt, Jeremy left them to go help fight with the rest of his family while Alexandra took care of Susan. Soon enough, Alexandra ran off to help the fight, leaving Susan a town away with her older cousins. She saw her parents rarely, as they were so often out trying to defeat Voldemort. Coming home for a few months, her parents were murdered by a couple of Death Eaters before her first birthday. As the year passed by, more and more people were killed, as they were sought after by the Death Eaters. As a baby Susan didn't know what was going on, and accepted others- like her aunt Amelia and a few cousins- as her parents. She got lucky, with it not impacting her much.

Being part of such a major wizarding family, everyone knew that Susan would develop abilities at some point in her life. She was moved from place to place as a child, either spending a month with her cousins or a week with Amelia Bones. Her childhood was very far from stable until she turned five. At this point in time, she needed to attend school. Normal Muggle school. Knowing she would get moved around otherwise, Susan was sent to a small, very expensive, boarding school in Southern England, where she would stay for the next few years. It wasn't until she was seven that she began developing her powers.  Pencils would turn into crayons, and cups would become bottomless. No one really connected this with Susan, and she continued her basic education until she was ten.

After her fifth year in the school, Amelia pulled Susan out and allowed her to live in her nice home. She lived with her husband and cat, which was occasionally bred. Soon enough Susan turned eleven, and her owl arrived inviting her to Hogwarts. The entire summer beforehand Amelia had told her niece about everything that had happened and how she was a witch, which both shook Susan up and greatly excited her. For a few weeks she became depressed over the fact, and was quite a fat child for her first year of school from all her overeating. She was constantly terrified of her aunt or few cousins being killed. However, she still went to Hogwarts excited about learning new things.

Susan didn't know much about Harry Potter or anything, but was excited to learn that he was the boy that, in a way, kept the few remaining family members from being killed. She was the second person to be sorted, following Hannah Abbott, whom she had sat with on the train over, along with a few others. Susan was then sorted into Hufflepuff, and was excited to be in the same house as one person she had already met. She loved her first year, learning all sorts of interesting things, and making new friends. Professor Quirrel scared Susan immediately at the beginnings of the first class, giving her a permanent dislike for the subject through every year. To a point, Susan was bullied by some of the other students for her weight. She was too shy to fight back, and just took the rudeness of the boys.

Her second year, like so many other girls, Susan crushed on Professor Lockhart. She sat with Hermione Granger in some of her classes, and sometimes daydreamed, especially in DADA. They would sit together in the class, both paying attention to his every word. Afraid of the Basilisk, she joined the Duelling Club to protect herself. Though she was a bit worried of being in that after Harry's abilities almost had a snake hurt one of her friends. Susan gained more of an ability in Herbology, especially with Hermione's help at the start. The two were friends, and Hermione didn't bully her like so many other girls. Once Hermione was petrified, Susan visited her occasionally, and tried harder than ever in her classes while still staying silent, not wanting to be attacked. Thankfully, as she wasn't a Muggleborn, she had no reason to worry. By the end of the year Susan lost interest in Lockhart because of his fraud, and lost any like she had for Defense Against the Dark Arts.

In her third year, Susan took all of her normal subjects, not wanting to overburden herself. She was a bit afraid of Sirius Black, as he was someone that could have killed her parents. However, by the end of the year, she was over it, and more focused on trying to make her bullies go away. Sadly, the bullying continued into her fourth year, when she finally realized she had to change, especially with the Yule Ball approaching. She didn't pay all that much attention to the Triwizard Tournament as she didn't really know Cedric Diggory, but still supported him as he brought attention to Hufflepuff house. Her best friends also supported him, making it even better. She enjoyed learning how to dance for the Ball, and by the time it had come she had worked off ten pounds of her goal to get fit. In her efforts to lose weight she purely walked for fun and didn't eat as much junk. Of course the bullying still continued on, even after the death of Cedric Diggory. She lost interest, however, as the Second Wizarding War was beginning, and her family could once again be in danger. Heading home that summer was hard, especially after the memorial for Cedric.

With the Ministry watching Hogwarts her fifth year, Susan felt fairly safe. Of course, she was still worried for Amelia, who worked for the Ministry, and even attended Harry's trial. Because of her aunt's position, Susan already knew of Umbridge and had met her on a few occasions. She disliked the woman greatly, and was almost glad that they really didn't do much in Defense Against the Dark Arts. Beginning the year Susan was also much more confident, after spending much of the summer working out and losing weight until she was only twenty pounds overweight. Still, she was bullied, especially by Crabbe and Goyle, who made fun of her aunt and even stole her wand on one occasion. Thankfully, her wand was given back after the trio came to her aid, and invited her to join Dumbledore's Army. Susan also joined because of what her aunt had said about Harry Potter, talking of how he could produce a patronus, and she wished to do one. She was glad to be surrounded by friends and learning things she never thought she would know. Later on, Harry taught her how to produce her own patronus, thinking of her aunt and going on summer trips. As the year progressed, the Death Eaters that killed so many of her family members escapes from Azkaban, terrifying her. She often sent owls to her aunt making her she was okay. With the escaped prisoners, Susan became a source of information, even though she was just a baby when everything occurred. She later told Harry she understood how he felt, as they were in such similar standards. They were able to talk, which greatly helped reduced some of the stress on her. Of course, it wasn't by much, as she still had to stress over OWLs, as she had to keep everything together.

In the summer before her sixth year, Susan and her uncle went on a muggle camping trip, only to learn that Amelia had been murdered by Lord Voldemort himself after quite a fight. She went back into a depression, as she had been so close with her aunt. Between all of her worrying, the cat had given birth to a new litter of kittens, and Susan kept one, naming it after her aunt. That summer she and her uncle also got matching tattoos on their left side lower back of Amelia's name, along with their own two, and a small design. The death of someone so close to them both brought the pair closer together than ever before. She knew that her family was now going to be hunted, and knew she had to go to Hogwarts for at least minimal protection. She went to school worried, with her uncle promising to write weekly. Unlike previous years, Susan became a topic of gossip instead of bullying. She had reached her goal of a normal weight, only slightly overweight, and had a new confidence even with all of the stress falling on her. She simply wants to get through the year without losing anyone else.
