Character History: From the moment that Lydia was born, she was doted on. Being the only girl, she was her mother’s pride and joy and her father treated her with more compassion than he showed her older brother. Life was good for the young witch. As she grew up, she would play with Noah in the fields outside of their manor, laying in a bed of flowers to find shapes in the clouds once they were worn out. For years it was just the two of them and Lydia liked it that way. She wanted for nothing and she felt like she had it all.
When her younger brother was born, Lydia was jealous. No longer the youngest, she had to learn to share attention with the youngest Bradley. Over time, she would grow to love Ryder, letting go of her jealousy and accepting him as part of the family. Noah and her would play with their baby brother and include him in their games.
Everything changed when she went to Hogwarts. The Sorting Hat wasted no time in sorting her in Hufflepuff and she became the first Bradley to not be sorted into Slytherin. Her father was not happy with this and he became more cold and indifferent to her as the years went on. At first, she was devastated to lose him, but James Bradley had never been the most affectionate father. Her mother treated her with the same love and kindness she had since she was born and Lydia gravitated toward her even more, planting flowers in the garden with her during her summer breaks.
Life at Hogwarts was largely uneventful. Lydia had met Ophelia Kenny during her first train ride to Hogwarts and the two have been inseparable since. You would never see one without the other, the Hufflepuff girls were joined at the hip. As her home life became more and more lonely, Lydia would find herself going to the Kenny’s more and more often. It got to the point where she was more familiar with their home than her own. Ophelia was more than her best mate, she was her sister from another mister and her family became a second family to her.
This past November tragedy struck. Ophelia had a vision that would change their lives forever. Noah, Lydia, and Ryder went home to say goodbye to their mother who had come down with a sudden and mysterious illness. Witnessing her mother’s death was the hardest thing that Lydia has ever had to go through. There are still hard moments, the loss still fresh in her mind, but Lydia’s happy-go-lucky attitude and bubbly personality could not be held back for too long.
