About
Eleanor Devaux-Alexander is the daughter of a famous Quidditch Keeper, Bastien Devaux and the wife he’s now got an annulment from, technically making her an illegitimate child. Due to the fact that her uncle, the head of the family, has no children, she is considered the de facto heir. Naturally as the halfblood (the Alexanders are quite the mix of muggle and magic) heir to a very well-known French pureblood family she’s seen as a bit of a peculiarity. She’s usually the free, welcoming girl with a vibe as warm and fresh as the island she was born on. When she’s with her French family though she becomes prim, proper, inhibited and just generally…flat and lifeless. The fact that she's part Veela is brought up way more often that it needs to be at get togethers. Her hobbies include Herbology, Quidditch (watching, playing, commenting, arguing about it), swimming and photography (and arts and crafts in general). Her father's family is known for the lavish parties that they either attend or throw, but you won’t see her looking very alive there. She’s best known as Eleanor Devaux, despite her double barrel name, so if you know her from those aristocratic little get togethers, you probably know her best as Eleanor Athenais Devaux. Her app can be found here.
Friends
Eleanor is quite warm and friendly provided you don’t meet her at one of her family’s parties she’s quite lively, albeit a little bit judgemental at times. She makes friends quite easily, in fact it’s quite likely that she’ll consider someone her friend after a few conversations or even less. She’s quite free with her affections too, warm, the sort of person who will greet a friend with a hug. She’s stubborn and loyal to a fault, so even if you have an argument chances are she’s going to fight tooth and nail to get you back or resolve things properly that doesn’t necessarily mean that she’s going to stop the problem before it starts becoming…well problematic.
There's also a 99% chance that she'll make you a little something, a friendship bracelet, a scarf or a little knitted something or other. Plus free Quidditch tickets. There are perks to being her friend, the idea of someone abusing her friendship for such a reason has occurred to her before but really she just wants to see the best in people so.
Enemies
Eleanor’s hard to make an enemy out of but people who find her vapid, uninteresting and all about the looks might find her exasperating, it’s hard to see her in France among her family and then see her at school or outside of her family’s influence in general where she’s quite different. Some might even think of her as fake. She’d probably be determined to prove them wrong, but that might end up making things worse. It’d take a lot of miscommunication but unfortunately Eleanor’s the type to let misconceptions slide sometimes. She wouldn’t consider Quidditch rivals enemies though, or people who support the wrong team they’re just wrong. She’ll try and educate them (she thinks her dad’s the best Keeper ever after all) but if they’re not persuaded, they’re not persuaded.
Which means they just have to live their life being wrong. Ellie is so annoying when it comes to Quidditch.
Romance
Ellie is demisexual the physical stuff doesn't interest her that much but she’s in love with love, unfortunately she’s naïve, people have taken advantage of her for her dad’s fame, her family’s wealth and for her own looks. Her idea of romance unfortunately comes from her parents who are dysfunctional at best and the honeymooners on St Lucia. She might accept cheating as okay as long as her S/O’s heart belongs to her or whatever, it’s a mix of her family’s attitude, her own insecurities and the examples she’s been shown. It’s quite bad actually but she’s slowly growing up to realize that it’s wrong. She’s on good terms with all of her exes, mostly because her dad likes them all.
Still she gets crushes easily and it's awfully obvious too.
Other
Acquaintances through those parties or her school are welcomed, she could have potentially been someone’s Herbology tutor or in turn been tutored in Divination or Potions, or she might just have had a tall friend to help her reach things she’s probably the type to keep penpals too so the possibilities are endless (hell someone could just be that person her gecko likes way too much).
And I'm open to anything and everything.
For anyone interested the title means 'Good wind; good current; calm sea; let’s sail!' because St Lucia was a strategic port at one point, being between Martinique and St Vincent.
