HISTORY
Trinetta, or Nettie for short, was born in September in Paris, France to her parents Belinda and Lawrence. The pregnancy wasn't planned, but the couple was ecstatic to finally add a daughter to their family. Royland was already at school and Jimmy was only a few years away from leaving as well, so most of Nettie's childhood was spent in the company of her parents. Still, it didn't stop the inquisitive young girl from following both her brothers around whenever they were home. Her parents enrolled her in school as soon as she came of age so she could interact with muggles and social with children her own age - their neighborhood was mostly populated by older couples with children who had already moved out, and they wanted her to make friends even if that meant she would have to keep her wizarding background a secret.

The family had every intention of staying in France until Jimmy moved to London to pursue his dream of being a healer at St. Mungos. Even though it meant being separated from Royland, who worked at the Ministry of Magic in France, the family decided to move so they could be closer to their middle child and help support him. This meant that Trinetta was no longer going to Beauxbatons, like her brothers had - instead, she is going to be headed to Hogwarts! She didn't mind at all that her parents decided to move and felt she adjusted to life in another country pretty quickly, even if the language barrier threw her off sometimes.

In the summer after her first year, Royland quit his job in France and moved back home, which meant all the Gladins had officially relocated to England. During the summer before her fourth year, Nettie's parents revealed to her that they were getting separated, after being unhappy for quite some time. There had always been a bit of tension between them due to Nettie's mother's Veela heritage, and her father always felt he wasn't good enough for her. Nettie's relationship with her father certainly influenced her view of the divorce, and she immediately took her father's side while her brothers both gravitated more towards her mother. Based off the somewhat cold attitude she received from her mother growing up at times, she clings to her friendships and relationships like glue. Companionship = happiness and security in her mind.

PERSONALITY AND INTERESTS
The Gladin's have always encouraged all their children to have many interests, but Nettie is by far the most well rounded of the Gladin kids. She loves being busy and finding new things to do. She is very artistically inclined (definitely a right-brained individual) and loves painting as well as playing the cello. She can also play the piano a little bit, and wants to work on pursuing more music while at school. She is also a huge fan of Quidditch had played in a youth league every summer since she was 8 years old. She has played seeker in her youth league and chaser/seeker/keeper on the school team.

Nettie's friends are her lifeblood. The older she gets, the more she values her relationships. She prefers to see the good in people, ignoring red flags most of the time to try and give them the benefit of the doubt. She has the loyalty of a Hufflepuff, which often clouds her Ravenclaw logic. While she is usually aware that she lets her emotions get the best of her, she usually ignores this fact and recklessly follows her heart anyways.

Being the youngest child in her family, Nettie is also loud and talkative - she likes to be the center of attention. She is very eager to grow up, already trying to learn how to do her makeup and wear cute muggle clothing that makes her look more adult. She is usually very friendly, but be warned - having two brothers has made her tough, and if you cross her, she can get nasty. She is very close with her father, and even though she gets along well with her mother, Jimmy is clearly the apple of her mother's eye - and since her papa treats her like a princess, she naturally goes to him when she needs something.

Because Nettie is so close with her father, it was a no-brainer for her to choose to live with him when her parents divorced. The two moved to a smaller house in Hertfordshire, while her mother relocated to a small flat in Essex with Nettie's older brother Jimmy.

The summer before her fourth year, she'd been hoping and wishing that she'd get a fancy new badge in the mail - but she never did. She was disappointed, but kept pushing forward, making Quidditch Captain or Head Girl her new goal. Imagine her surprise when, during the summer before her FIFTH year, the envelope she'd been hoping for finally arrived! Sadly, the experience at Beauxbatons soured her feelings towards the badge, and she ended up resigning her position after just one term.

Nettie graduated with excellent grades and decided to take a gap year prior to going to university. With her boyfriend Alex at her side, the couple toured Europe, stopping in Greece, Rome, Prague, Munich, Madrid and Moscow before heading home. Despite the fact that Nettie enjoyed her year with Alex, it made her realize the two were better off as friends and she ended the relationship - although she still maintains he is one of her best friends. She enrolled in WU London and studied Advanced Transfiguraiton, which had always been one of her interests. After graduation, she worked a few odd jobs before finally getting hired as a book binder at Flourish and Blotts, which managed to bring together some of her skills in a way she had never thought possible. She loves her job, and loves watching the books come together. Even more fun is interacting with the students during breaks!
