( EXPECTO PATRONUM! ) : Her mother kissing her forehead before she left for her first year at Hogwarts.
( DEMENTOR'S KISS ) : Her traumatizing vision in sixth year. Her eyes were glazed, blood pooling around her wrists, cryptic message about ‘The Return’ written on the dorm wall.

( MIRROR OF ERISED ) : To be reunited with her mother without worrying about the woman being tried for War Crimes.
( PERSONALITY ) :

• Loyal - Ana is uncommonly loyal once she forms bonds with people. She’s not one to take her friendships lightly and often considers people she has just met to be her life-long friends. Her loyalty often verges on obsession, as she cannot seem to break bonds with people, even when they try and get rid of her. In many ways, this allegiance often scares people away because they’re not sure what to do with such a zealous companion around all the time.
  
  
• Suspicious - Ana barely trusts anyone, even her closest friends sometimes. It stems from her mother’s fear that someone would take advantage of her Seer ability. She can’t go a day without constructing some sort of conspiracy theory in her mind, it’s one of her pitfalls. Everyone poses a threat to those who she cares about and she’s constantly on high alert when it comes to meeting new people. This is why she tries to spend as much time as she can alone, so that she’s not constantly focused on what everyone might be up to. Ana is particularly reserved. Her mother taught her to be very wary of who she trusts, and that has carried over into her personal life. She finds it hard to talk to other people, but when she finally does, she can be a good friend to get on with. It’s the initial period that is the worst for her.
  
  
• Spontaneous - Doing thinks just for the sake of doing them or simply because someone suggested it is the way that Ana operates. This goes back to her inability to understand consequences. She does what she wants when she wants to because she can. Her life motto? “Just because you can...means you should.” She’s a classic reckless 21 year old, despite the fact that she needs to be careful with who she trusts.
  
  
• Headstrong - Ana leads with her head. She often finds it hard to connect with her feelings, so she remains cold and aloof when it comes to making decisions. She always tries to follow her first mental instinct when it comes to hard decisions, not bothering to consider the possible consequences. She’s determined to do what she needs to to rectify the situation with her Mother and the rest of the Death Eaters, even if that means helping with another possible rebellion.
  
  
• Child-like - Ana is naive. That is the best way to put it. Unlike her brother, she’s found herself unable to fully understand the world and the consequences that it has to offer. In that respect, she often finds herself in situations that are dangerous for her without even realizing it. Even though she doesn’t speak to her younger brother any more, Archer thinks that she needs someone to watch out for her because she’s so childlike.

( HAIR ) : Ana has long brown hair that she likes to keep tidy with soft layers. Her hair has a few natural highlights of a coppery color, but other than that, feels rather dull to her. It is naturally curly and volumous, much to her dismay. She attempts to magically straighten it for work.
( EYES ) : Hazel eyes that are softer and less intense than her brothers. They don’t pop from her face as much as his do, but she can have the same soul-piercing stare if she needs to.
( FACIAL STRUCTURE ) : Ana has soft features except for her jawline. A very strong jaw that resembles Archer’s is the only tell-tale sign that they are siblings. Other than that, they look very dissimilar.
( BODY STRUCTURE ) : Slightly muscular. Ana takes care of her body, but she doesn’t over do it. She doesn’t have a lot of time to work out because of her time-consuming job at the Ministry. Most people see her as too skinny as of late. Approximately 5’5”, 120lbs.
( ATTIRE ) : Ana wears whatever is comfortable. She loves dresses and often opts for Muggle clothing in lieu of traditional Wizarding robes. She’s a typical 21 year old in the sense that she loves feeling pretty and feminine.
( PLAY-BY ) : Lyndsy Fonseca

( HISTORY ) : Anastasia was born to his two Death Eater parents right on the outskirts of the First Wizarding War. Her parents were already heavily involved in the war that was brewing, and the pair of them never gave up hope that the Dark Lord was still lurking in the shadows waiting for the right moment to strike. She was the oldest child of the family, the first born, and the pride and joy of her Mother. Since the day that she was born, Ana was always Savannah Grayson's favorite child for the obvious reason that she was her first child. But she grew up in the clutches of a war that was brewing, so for Ana, that meant that she grew up with values that were so instilled in her about pureblood elitism and domination, that she would never think anything else about them. She learned from the get-go that unclean blood meant unfit to live and has followed that to a t ever since she was a little girl.

When she was eight years old, Ana had a horrifying experience. She fell asleep like any other normal night, but her mother found her the next morning, her eyes glazed over, staring at her bedroom wall where she had written in her own blood ‘His return is near.’ She wouldn’t awake from the trance, sitting there with her wrists pooling blood in front of her. Her mother and father had, of course, been terrified and immediately took her to St. Mungo’s where they treated her, but could find no signs of anything wrong. The Healers chalked it up to momentary insanity, but Savannah Grayson always knew that there was something different about her eldest daughter. Ana was watched carefully after that, to make sure that it didn’t happen again.

She attended Hogwarts for her seven years and was sorted into Slytherin, no surprise there. Her mother was undoubtedly proud of her and sent her letters every week and packages from home. She was spoiled rotten. By the time that it came time for Archer to come to Hogwarts, he was already fighting for the second-best spot. They pair of them never got along and were constantly fighting and attacking each other. Although Grayson was quite a good deal younger than Ana, he managed to hold his own against her for quite some time. During her sixth year, Ana had another one of her episodes, finding herself in the exact same situation that she had been before; eyes glazed, blood pooling, cryptic message about ‘The Return’ written on the dorm wall. The Slytherin girls who found her have never seen her the same way. They saw her as a freak...a dangerous freak at that. The rumors started circulating about her, and people called her a freak...Savannah withdrew her from her sixth year, tutoring her at home and observing her carefully. It was then that she figured it out. Anastasia Grayson was a Seer. And she was predicting something. Savannah, of course, kept this information a secret from her husband and the rest of the family, hoping that it would keep her daughter safe from the world of Darkness that seemed to surround them all.

She had to return to Hogwarts to finish her final year and pass her NEWTS, but she mostly stayed to herself. During this final year the only person that she spoke to was Archer, and they didn’t get along in the slightest. She told him about her...ability one night after a Quidditch match and they got into an extreme fight, causing each of them to be sent to the Hospital Wing for a couple of days. Ana had broken ribs and a large cut running down her back. It had all been because Archer was angry with her for not offering her services to the Death Eaters. Ana had desperately tried to explain to him that the Death Eaters were inactive because the Dark Lord wasn’t alive any longer. But her little brother wouldn’t listen. He was just as stubborn as always. Since then, they haven't spoken and Ana has been keeping her distance from Archer.

The year after she left Hogwarts, Ana joined the Ministry, working in the Department of International Magical Cooperation. The Dark Lord made his return and overthrew the ministry as she knew it, but she hung on to her job, opting to help the Dark Lord in whatever way that she could without revealing her hand. Her mother still fiercely protected her, begging her not to reveal that she had visions. She couldn’t stand the thought of her daughter being exploited by the man that was ravaging a war, despite the fact that Savannah was branded with the Dark Mark. Ana agreed and kept a low profile to avoid scrutiny.

She stayed out of the Battle Of Hogwarts, her mother urging her to go to a safe-house in Southern London. She did, and that night, she had a vision. A very vivid vision of her father being destroyed by the Headmistresses and falling...falling into darkness. She snapped out of it and found that this time, she had managed not to do herself bodily harm during her trance. Instead, she had burnt down the entire safe-house and found herself standing amongst the ashes. Her mother managed to escape the battle and sought out her daughter, finding her in the ruins, curled into a ball, trying to find her equilibrium.

But the feeling of helplessness had to be quickly abandoned as she realized her mother and the other rogue Death Eaters needed somewhere to go to be safe. She managed to arrange for them to stay in Scotland, out of the way for a little while until they figured out what to do. After that, she returned to work, claiming that she had been taken hostage by the Death Eaters and had come back in order to help rebuild the ministry. Given that she had no mark, nor given them any reason to doubt her, she was allowed to keep her job. Ana's the only one who knows where the Death Eaters are hiding out and she's not telling. She's focusing hard on her job and keeping up secret correspondence with her mother...waiting for the right moment to strike...just like her brother. Because the Grayson family is all about revenge.
