She has a very caring heart and will always help those around her who are in need of assistance whether it be a comforting shoulder to cry on or help mastering a particular charm. She spends a great amount of time reading books on any subject she happens to find interesting at the time and writes letters to her father and brother once a week. Virginie is not currently in a relationship and has never experienced what she would call proper love. Her experiences of dating have thus far been terrible and embarrassing. Kind, caring and perhaps a little naive at times, her heart is always in the right place.<br/><br/><strong>History:</strong>Virginie was born in the middle of a Parisian gridlock in the back of an ambulance on the way to the hospital. Her mother was a witch who had attended Beauxbaton when she was younger (Bellefeuille) and her father is a muggle working as an artist in the city. It was the beauty of his paintings that first drew Virginie's mother to him on their very first meeting in a gallery. She has one younger brother who is 9. Though her mother was always open with her magical abilities, the household in which she was brought up in was as free as magic as was possible. A grounded upbringing in which an understanding of muggle ways was important to both her parents and so Virginie finds herself a little uncomfortable when the topic of bloodlines is brought up in the company of her full blood peers; she being the more tolerant and pro-muggle member of her friendship group.<br/><br/>Virginie’s magical abilities first manifested shortly after her fifteenth birthday though she didn't realise it at the time. She had enjoyed reading books for many years now and liked to do so in the quiet confines of her small room in the families Parisian apartment. One day Virginie was reading and loud music started to play from the apartment next door. The bass heavy melody felt like it was making the room shake so she began banging on the wall in an attempt to have them lower the volume. An hour passed and the volume hadn't decreased by which time Virginie's anger and frustration had reached it's peak. Screaming, she punched away at the wall in a frenzy, losing herself in her rage. And just like that the music stopped. It wasn't until much later that she realised what she had done; she had used magic. Her father, despite being a muggle, was very supportive of her perusing her education at Beauxbaton once he found out about Virginie's ability.<br/><br/>The most important event in Virginie's young life, the one that motivates her to be kind and intelligent person she is, is also the most heartbreaking. When she was 10, her mother died. Grief stricken, Virginie struggled with the loss for many years until the day she received her acceptance letter to Beauxbaton.” That day she resolved to be the best witch that she could be; a witch that her mother would have been proud of. To this end, she excelled in her subjects especially herbology and potions where she sees the opportunity to help those in need with the medicines she could make.<br/><br/><br/><br/><strong>Family:</strong><br/>Mother: Emilie Moreau (Deceased; Witch)<br/>Father: Francois Moreau (Muggle)<br/>Brother: Jean Moreau (Unknown)<br/><br/><strong>Likes:</strong>Reading, flying, art, chocolate, healing, her family.<br/><strong>Dislikes:</strong>Extreme heat, obnoxious people, overly competitive people, suffering.<br/><strong>Fears:</strong>Losing her family.<br/><strong>Favorite Animal(s):</strong>Cats<br/><strong>Favorite Color(s):</strong>Blue<br/><br/><div style="text-align: right;"><span class="bbc_size" style="font-size: 8pt;"><strong>MTPersson</strong></span></div><br/><strong><span class="bbc_u">Classes</span></strong><br/><ul class="bbc_list"><li>Defence Against the Dark Arts</li><li>History of Magic</li><li>Herbology</li><li>Potions</li><li>Charms</li><li>Care of Magical Creatures</li><li>Flying</li></ul><br/><strong>Volunteering Preference</strong>: Gardening Service.
