( RIDDIKULUS! ) : Water. Summer was swimming with her mum when she was little and her mother was pulled under by a rip-tide. They never found her body.
( EXPECTO PATRONUM! ) : The day that she met Rita Skeeter a couple of years ago. The woman was reporting on the Triwizard Tournament and Summer happened to run into her in the hallway. The woman told her to keep on writing and always catch the scoop and patted her on her head. Skeeter has been Summer’s inspiration since then.
( DEMENTOR'S KISS ) : The day that she was swimming with her mother when she was little. They swam too far out to sea and her mother was dragged under by a rip-tide. They were never able to recover her body.
( MIRROR OF ERISED ) : Summer sees herself becoming a writer for the Daily Prophet and getting to report front page news alongside Rita Skeeter.
( PERSONALITY ) : Summer Cresswell is not the average Hufflepuff. For one, she’s rather manipulative and knows how to draw information out of people that they wouldn’t want to normally share. Secondly, she’s got a bit of a bite to her; she’s not afraid to speak her mind or write it down for everyone else to read. It has landed her quite a few detentions over the years. Detentions that were very well-deserved.
She can be rude and catty and quite snarky when she wants to be.
Her parents that Summer Cresswell is a gift from the heavens, but what they don’t know about her is she is the one spreading all the nasty rumors around school. Summer is quiet and likes to keep to herself, which makes her the perfect person to seek out all those catty rumors that are floating around the castle these days.
She’s mainly focused on exposing some of the rumors circulating about Death Eaters still around, hoping that maybe...maybe her little newspaper might do some good.

( HAIR ) : Summer has blonde hair that falls a little past her shoulders. She loves wearing it down, but when she’s trying to report on something, she keeps it tight in a bun on the top of her head. She loves her hair and thinks that it’s the best part of her appearance.
( EYES ) : Summer has bright green eyes that have been described as soul-piercing. Everyone in Hufflepuff is convinced that she can see right into their thoughts when she looks at them. Of course, this is completely untrue, but Summer likes to use it to her advantage.
( FACIAL STRUCTURE ) : Stronger features that remain somehow delicate, she has a defined chin and jawbone, and extremely high cheekbones that are one of the more prominent features of her face. She has a slightly upturned nose and lips that are a little too small for her face.
( BODY STRUCTURE ) : Summer is tall and slightly muscular. She’s definitely not out of shape and she likes to show off her body.
( ATTIRE ) : Summer loves wearing jeans. In fact, she’s worn her favorite pair down so much that they have rips all up and down them. She is also very partial to t-shirts. She doesn’t like getting dressed up too much; the only reason she ever does so is when she’s going out to get a scoop.

( HISTORY ) : Summer was born on June 14 to her loving parents, Megan and Raoul. Having never thought they could have another child because Megan had contracted a disease while in the Middle East that all but destroyed her reproductive system, they were beyond happy upon the birth of their younger daughter. They loved her from the very moment that they laid eyes on her light blonde hair and strikingly green eyes. She was truly a blessing to the pair, and it was needless to say that they tried to spoil her to the best of their ability.
Just two years after Summer was born, her mother and father were blessed with another unexpected surprise. They had another child - Son, Calvin Cresswell. He became the new baby of the family, and her mother and father seemed to dote on him more than they had ever doted on Summer during her youth. She couldn't help but be slightly jealous as the Cresswell children all grew up.
Summer grew up around her older sister Amanda, whom she cared about deeply. The pair of them were practically inseparable, despite the fact that they were four years apart in age. They spent their free time learning how to play wizard’s chess together, however, Amanda always beat Summer, which caused her to get angry at her older sister from time to time.
When Summer was 9, her mother took her to the beach for a little mother-daughter bonding time. Summer was beyond happy as they played in the water and built sandcastles. However, when they decided to swim out a little bit further from the shore, the tides changed. A rip current pulled Summer’s mother from her grasp and ultimately drown her, however, the details are relatively unknown because Megan Cresswell’s body was never found. Summer has been scarred ever since then.
When she was 11, she received her Hogwarts letter and began her magical journey to become a witch like her older sister Amanda. She was surprised when she was sorted into Hufflepuff, having assumed she would have been a Ravenclaw like her father and sister before her. However, she didn’t let it deter her from studying hard and achieving good marks.
She was in her 3rd year when she discovered just how much she enjoyed writing. She was sitting in the Hufflepuff common room when she heard a few girls gossiping about what had happened at dinner that day. Apparently, one of the students had nearly destroyed the entire Gryffindor Table with an explosion. Summer inquired into what happened, and began writing it all down, adding in a few details here and there to...”spice up the story,” as she liked to say. Then she posted it near the front of the Hufflepuff common room for all to read. Of course, everyone thought it was hilarious, reading about the ridicule of the daft Gryffindor. And Summer was proud. More proud than she had ever been in her life.
As the war started to break out and threatened to destroy the wizarding world as Summer knew it, her father pulled her and her brother out of school for fear of their safety. They took leave from the country and spent a year and half in France, avoiding the war that was raging around them.
Now Summer is back to retake her 5th year, even though she technically qualifies for her 6th in her age. She has to retake her OWLS and is increasingly nervous for them. But she’s also excited because she has something planned to shake up the school. Something a little like a school newspaper of sorts.

( ALIAS ) : Quinn[/b] She said as she pressed her hands to her friend’s head, tilting it upwards so that she could see her. Summer’s eyes sparkled with excitement, ”Well, what do you think? Took me ages to get the print right on the first page...but I think it’s bloody brilliant.”[/b] She asked, nodding toward the newspaper in the girl’s hand.[/quote][/font][/size][/blockquote]

( ROLEPLAY EXAMPLE ) :She never thought that it would be this big. Not in a million years. But as she looked around the Great Hall, watching people’s eyes scan the crudely printed newspaper, she could hardly breathe. Summer Cresswell had done it. She had managed to publish her own underground gossip newspaper at Hogwarts. And it had every dirty little secret that everyone wanted to keep hidden written in it’s inked pages. Every secret she had been collecting since school started. There was something on everyone...well nearly everyone. She felt giddy. And rather like she was going to throw up. Perhaps sick more than giddy.
Watching the reactions was her favorite part. The way that people seemed so surprised at what was written. How could they not have known that the Slytherin at the end of the table had runway Death Eater Parents? How could that Ravenclaw to her left not have known that her father had imprisoned 3 Death Eaters since the end of the War. Of course, not all of it was so heavy and war-centered. There were a few pages toward the back detailing Hermione Granger and Ron Weasley’s little get together over the summer holiday. Summer laughed to herself. Her hands played absentmindedly at the locket around her neck before she made her way to the Gryffindor Table, where she spotted a familiar face reading the paper.
