PERSONALITY OVERVIEW:
Overall, Francesca is just a girl who has big ambitions and has a mind set to get there, even if she might not be as physically strong as others. She considers her intelligence her biggest strength, and she works to improve it diligently every day to become the best at what she does. When she was a student at Hogwarts, she was the girl who spent a majority of her time in the library of her own free will, studying to do as well in her classes as possible.
Fun has always sort of been a relative term with Frankie, as her mother and father call her. Fun to her would be curling up with her pet cat in front of the fireplace of her flat in Hogsmeade, reading a good book by a good author and sipping butterbeer as the night goes on. But never think that partying is a scary thing for her, as Francesca has attended her number of parties in her time, and has actually enjoyed them. She would simply just rather spend her time doing something else. She's not exactly a hermit, nor would she particularly enjoy that lifestyle, but Francesca values her time alone and appreciates peace and quiet, which she normally only gets when she's by herself.
However, this doesn't mean that Francesca makes a bad socialite. Granted, getting all dressed up makes her feel just a tad uncomfortable, especially if she has to be around a bunch of people she doesn't really like, but she's capable of doing it. In fact, she's capable of a lot of things. Frankie's a very independent person, and it's one of the reasons she's fairly content being alone a lot of the time. But otherwise, she's pretty strong emotionally, other than the fact that she's very easily envious and doesn't have a gift in subtlety, which can sometimes prove to be a problem when she's confronted with criminals and men she might have feelings for. She has a very blunt and honest way of going about things, all in all.

MOTHER: isabelle [stoyanova] meade, 42, pureblood, stay-at-home mother
SIBLINGS: none
OTHER FAMILY: n/a
SOCIO-ECONOMIC STATUS: fairly rich
HISTORY OVERVIEW:
Both of Francesca's parents come from rich pureblooded families. Her father, George Meade, comes from a long line of Wizengamot judges, and the Meades are one of the smaller pureblood lines in wizarding Britain. Her mother, Isabelle, is from the Stoyanova family, an infamous pureblooded family line from Spain. Her mother's branch of the Stoyanova family moved to England when Isabelle was just a young girl, and once she was old enough, an arranged marriage was forged between Isabelle Stoyanova and George Meade, and the pair were married without a hitch a few months later, and a bit over nine months later, Francesca Yvonne Meade was born in St. Mungo's Hospital.[/left][/ul][/size]THEY SAID WE’D NEVER DANCE AGAIN[/font]
Frankie's early life was fairly uneventful. Her parents were, and still are, fairly conservative. Her father continued his job at the Ministry as her mother took the responsibility of staying home and raising young Francesca. She spoiled Frankie senseless a majority of the time, though there were times during the week (every Tuesday evening from 6 to 7, when her father was working late, to be more specific), when Isabelle would lock Francesca in her room with a nanny and a number of toys.
It wasn't until Francesca was seven that she learned/realized that her mother was actually having an affair (though of course at that age she didn't quite comprehend what an affair was). All she knew was that her mommy didn't love her daddy, and when her self-created image of a happy family shattered, Frankie was rather upset. So upset, in fact, that her magic got out of control and lit the house on fire. When her mother tried to put it out, the fire only got worse, and soon the Muggle fire martials were called in, and Frankie, her mother, and her nanny were forced to flee from the burning house. While they were waiting, Francesca's mother made her promise to never tell her father about what was going on, or the family would be torn apart. And Frankie being but a small seven-year old girl, agreed, terrified of the idea of their family being ripped apart. George Meade came home that night to find his wife and daughter literally sitting on the street in front of where their home had once been, and together the three Apparated to George's parents' home, where they stayed for a year before the Meades managed to find another house. To this day, that night still remains as Frankie's worst memory.
When Francesca turned eleven, she received her letter from Hogwarts as was expected, and her parents were extremely proud of her. She was taken to Diagon Alley to purchase all of her supplies that August and then let off to Hogwarts that September, where she was sorted into Ravenclaw without a second's hesitation on the part of the Sorting Hat. She made a number of friends straight off, and quickly ascended to the top of her year with her quick wit and her yearning to be educated. Her professors constantly wrote praises and compliments on her marks ans scores, and her parents expected nothing less from their beloved little Francesca.
Of course, over the years, problems at home were beginning to escalate. Francesca never forgot the fact that her mother was still seeing people behind her father's back, and more than once was tempted to write her father from Hogwarts to tell him of the grievous acts being committed in their household. But on a constant basis, her mother begged her not to tell him, and on occasion would even threaten to pull her out of Hogwarts if Frankie even dared breathe a word of it to George. Terrified that her mother would make good on her promises, Francesca kept quiet. To this day, she still hasn't told her father, though keeping the secret tears her apart day in and day out.
Frankie graduated from Hogwarts near the top of her class, and immediately applied to become an Auror at the Ministry of Magic. Given her high marks in school and her father's connections, she was almost instantaneously offered a position as a junior Auror, one who trains and is considered something like an intern before actually becoming a part of the Auror force. Fresh out of Hogwarts, Addie is preparing to become an Auror and is quickly discovering the escalating conflicts in wizarding Britain.
