She isn't naturally book smart and has to very work hard in school to pass her classes. She isn't somebody that you would want in your social circle, as she knows very little about pleasantries and can give a fly's hoot about social gatherings. Iridessa has a hard time picking and choosing her battles. She tends to turn men off once they get talking with her because she isn't submissive at all. She tends to make rash decisions on impulse when under pressure, but usually tries to think her decisions through. She sets herself to look like she has a strong face, but really she cries when in private and feels awful lonely at times. She doesn't trust people easily. Iridessa is also quite stubborn.

OVERALL PERSONALITY DESCRIPTION: Iridessa is a strong minded girl. She works hard and is very ambitious with her goals. Even though she isn't very book smart, she works hard to try and learn things at school. Her street smarts are good, though. She is a brave girl and tries to overcome her fears. She tends to help the oppressed and bullied, knowing that everyone should be treated equal in the world. And though she might come off as rude and unpleasant, Iridessa knows that this is just a consequence of trying to make people understand that nobody is better than anyone else, so to speak. She may think that many of the laws set in place in today's society are very stupid and illogical, but she believes that most, if not all the rules at Hogwarts are there to keep the students safe and she encourages people to try and abide by them; it's just common sense not to get yourself killed over stupid things. She believes that you should never give up and keep on trying and pushing until you reach your goals, even if it means facing your fears. She's a fighter, although sometimes has trouble choosing her battles. She believes women are capable of anything a man is, and tried to show people that. She is a born leader and takes charge in many situations. She isn't a modest or pleasant type of girl, but she is alright with that because once you earn her respect and trust, you find out that she can be a really nice young lady. And even if she is strong, she has her weak points where her emotions do take over, and she has to cry. But, she always does that in private. Always.

CHARACTER HISTORY:
Iridessa a was the third born child of Thomas and Constantine Blair. She grew up in a quaint middle class family in London, England. Everyone there loved each other to death. But, there was always something a little off. Iridessa and her brothers could see it in their mother's eyes form time to time. Sometimes, Iridessa questioned it, but her mother never gave her a completely straight answer. Well, not until she was older. It wasn't until around when Iridessa turned 12, that her mother sat down and told all her children about how her father had disowned her for marrying their father because he was Muggleborn. Iridessa instantly grew a detestment for her grandfather which she never had met. The talk ended with her mother telling them to follow their dreams, or something like that.
It was around then that Iridessa started to become a feminist. Although, she didn't know it yet. She started around then to question why her mother's father had any right to keep her away from her family. She began to grow anger towards men who thought they could control women. And, this feeling slowly grew, but she kept it to herself. She was taught to try and be proper, but she couldn't shake this feeling. No, it was too great.
It was late August, almost school time and Iridessa was 14, when she was out, unchaperoned, but only to quickly pick up groceries at the nearby Muggle grocer. It was last minute ingredients for supper that her father had forgotten when he was there early that afternoon. Iridessa's brothers were out with friends playing a game of soccer (football) and her parents were working hard together to get supper prepared, so it was up to Iridessa to just take a quick walk to the grocer and obtain the forgotten items. So, she bought the items and counted her money quickly before starting her trip back home. It was becoming late and the sun was already beginning to set, but it didn't bother the girl much, it actually gave her a thrill of adventure to be out without a chaperon. So, the girl was making her way back home a smile on her face, when she was grabbed, a hand going over her mouth a pulled into an alley, making her drop her groceries and wand, which was hidden in the basket she was using to carry the groceries home.
The man was intending to rape her, but Iridessa was going to fight back. She struggled enough in his arms to have him drop her. But, she was still cornered, the back of the alley was a dead end. And the man quickly approached her again, he mumbled something about her being a bitch and pushed her up against the back of the alley dead end, covering her mouth harshly. She again struggled and started kicking him and tried pushing him away. But, this led her to get many beatings to her head, leading to a split lip and what will soon be a black eye.
The man then proceeded to hold her more tightly and rip the front of her skirt's dress off, to which she struggled again, which the man was getting irritated with and pulled out a knife, cutting her across the abdomen and trying to get her to stop, cut her messily on her left leg in a X shape. These cuts weren't deep enough to permanently hurt her too much, but did leave scars. She continued to struggle, this time kneeing him in the crotch hard, which had him stumble backwards, groaning. This gave Iridessa a chance to run for it. She sprinted past the man, but he grabbed her arm. She turned back and bit his wrist, hard and he released, so she sprinted fast, far out of that alley.
Iridessa ran, not feeling her injuries, her adrenaline to high. She inky made it a few shops down before a woman standing next her her husband, who was just closing up his clothing shop, noticed her and told her husband. The two Muggles helped the girl into their shop and the man asked her a few questions, then went to get Iridessa's parents while the woman wrapped up her wounds with extra cloth from their clothing shop. The man came back with Iridessa's parents and the men set off to gather Iridessa's basket and hopefully find the man who attack her. In the meantime, the woman and her mom sat with her, comforting her. When her father and the woman's husband came back, they couldn't find Iridessa's abuser, but they did find her basket, with all her groceries stolen. But, the small blanket her wand was hidden under was still intact, along with the wand (which they didn't find until they were home of course.)
Then, after thankful goodbyes, the family headed back home, Iridessa's father carrying her. The next day, Iridessa was checked up by a doctor and found her wounds would scar, but heal fine. It was from that day forward that Iridessa became a true feminist. She wanted women to be able to be brave enough and stand up for themselves, she wanted them to be strong. She knew that women were able to do anything they put there minds to, and from that day forward Iridessa didn't keep quiet about what she thought. She spoke out about it. Because, everyone on this earth is equal and can be able to do anything, if they work hard enough.
