Pet/Familiar: Does her brother count? She has two goldfish, named Ophion and Persephone.
Physical Description: River is tall. That is usually the first thing people notice about her. And rather willowy. She reached the height of 511 two days after her 19th birthday, and that was thankfully when her growth spurts stopped. The second thing that most people notice is her hair. It falls straight, down to her shoulders like a wall of fire. It is naturally a coppery red, but she charms it to a dark, almost vixenly shade of red. Her eyes are the luminescent blue that it seems only Irish girls possess, and her pale skin complete a rather pretty picture.
River is rather lazy when it comes to clothing. She has a couple of nice suits, all with pants, but other than that, she tends very muchly to be a jeans and band t-shirt kind of gal. She hasnt worn a dress since her wedding day, and doesnt own one. She owns one skirt, but hasnt worn it since she was 21. Her shoes are generally chunky, mostly boots, with a small heel, not needing any help to her height. Her eyes are always lined in black, her makeup generally bringing out the colour of her eyes. More often than not, when she is at home, River walks around in just panties and a tshirt, much to the chargrin of her brother. She does work out a little, doing kick boxing to vent her anger, and keep herself slim.
Personality Description: River can be a somewhat confusing person. Especially if you were to follow her for a week and observe her behaviour in different environments. Ever since the dissolution of her marriage, she has become very, very closed off to people. She presents a different face to each situation. At work, she switches between the consummate professional, sometimes icy, although always with a smile when she needs someone, and the boucy ball of energy, wandering round and talking to people when she has nothing to do. At home she is relaxed, sometimes curling up with a glass of wine, sometimes bouncing around to a new record, usually just to annoy her brother. When shes out, she is flirty, being very much in touch with her sexuality. After all, she has done the married thing, now it is time to have fun.
River has a few vices, alcohol, caffeine and nicotine being some of them. She is not a drunk, usually only drinking enough to get her tipsy. She likes to be in control, and getting drunk means letting go of a certain degree of control. She can be a bit of a control freak. She is rather quick to anger, although she tends to just fume rather than get violent or scream. A memory like an elephant, River bears grudges for a long time.
Brief History: River is the eldest of two children born to Bronwyn and Peter Fenwick, a wizarding couple who live in Manchester, England. Bronwyn and Peter, both muggle-borns, met during their time at Hogwarts. Her younger brother Benjy is also a wizard, although 5 years younger than she is. Peter worked in the department of Magical Law Enforcement, and her mother was a curse-breaker for Gringotts prior to the birth of River, but took a desk job afterwards.
River was a Slytherin at Hogwarts, and quite the trouble maker at that. She was rebellious, enjoying the attention that it brought her. It came of little surprise to anyone, when the day that she graduated, she packed her bags and headed to the United States. It was a little surprising when and owl arriced informing her parents that she was married, but other than that, River did not often communicate with her family.
It was during her time in the US, living in New York, that River found she had a passion for reporting. Or more she had a passion for writing, and reporting gave her an outlet to do that, which actually gave her a source of income as well. She took a job writing for a trashy tabloid, and it was there that she met her husband, David Montgomery. It was a quick, torrid affair that just as quickly became marriage. Until one day, the day River got a job at the New York times, and had come home early to tell her husband when she found her husband in bed with his secretary. Without even bothering to pack, River apparated out of the apartment and was on the first plane back to England.
River is currently living with her brother, something she has mixed feelings about. She wants to look for her own place, but right now isnt used to living on her won. And besides, it is fun to annoy ickle Benjy, although she is always careful how far she pushes him. She has taken a job with the Daily Prophet, and is trying to work up the courage to go and see her parents.
Important Relationships:
Benjy Fenwick- River is far more grateful to her brother than she would ever let him know. The two didnt really get along growing up, being so different, but now, they have been able to put their differences aside. Or atleast they have deep down. She is glad he hasnt told their parents she is back. She likes to frustrate him, finding amusement in pushing his buttons, but she would do anything for him.
Her parents River feels like she disappointed her parents as a teenager, and this is why she hasnt been to see them yet. She will one day, but she has to make peace with herself first.
Circe Benyon A friend of Rivers from Hogwarts, the two havent spoken since River moved and got married, but now that she is back, she plans on looking up her old friend for some much needed nights on the town.
David Montgomery- NPC, ex husband, bane of her existence, evil spawn. Evil spawn seems to sum it up nicely. River does not want to see him again. EVER.
Joshua Cloud- Workmate, fellow sex fiend. If there was ever anyone River could fall in love with again, it would be Josh. But that would ruin the great sex.
