Quinn is naturally nervous and neurotic, but often does a good job of covering these traits up and projecting an air of calmness and pleasantness. They are not afraid to be outgoing or silly under the right circumstances. They care deeply about other people, and often worry about how they are viewed by people they care about or are intimidated by. However, on the flip side, Quinn is very quick to dismiss your character if you make a bad impression on them. They will very blatantly make their distaste known, through either their words or actions. They can be cordial, but will make a point not to be anything more if they aren't a fan of yours. They are not afraid to speak their mind and have worked hard to develop that trait within themself.

When it comes to work, Quinn is someone who dives in headfirst. When they're given a task they give it their all, and will always put in their best work. However, they feel their emotions very deeply, and if they're upset it can and has affected their focus and work ethic. They hold themselves to a very high standard, sometimes an unattainable one, and will become discouraged if they feel they aren't meeting their perceived potential.

Quinn was born to Catherine and Kendall Kingsley, neither of whom expected to have a magical child. As such, Quinn was raised as a muggle. In elementary school Quinn had their first crush on a boy; after confessing to him, they began getting heavily teased at school. After the school notified their parents of the bullying, they punished Quinn and made them believe their feelings were wrong. As such, Quinn became very nervous and jittery, scared of making mistakes or doing things that would make them different, and they became uncomfortable being in their own home.

At the age of ten Quinn began showing signs of magical ability, which further distanced them from their parents. Catherine had a distaste for magic and wizards, and she wasn’t pleased to find out her child was magical. However, Quinn’s parents knew it would be worse for Quinn not to learn how to control their magical ability, and they were subsequently introduced to their aunt, Caroline Anthera. She stayed with their family for a while to teach Quinn about magic and the wizarding community. Soon after Quinn received a letter from Hogwarts.

In their first year at Hogwarts, Quinn met a lot of people and had many experiences that reshaped the foundation of their character. Atlas and Eden, their two best friends, showed them that who they were wasn’t something to be afraid or ashamed of. They were branded as a lower being because of their blood status when Hogwarts was taken over during the Third Wizarding War, and instead of shying from that and accepting it, they fought against it as hard as they could. They were done being someone who was judged by things they could not change. The friendships Quinn had forged only became stronger after the harrowing experience, and they became less afraid of standing up not only for themselves, but the people they cared about. However, Quinn's aunt sadly died during the war.

The summer in between first and second year, Quinn was visiting Diagon Alley with their mother and they happened upon Atlas. After seeing the way Quinn’s mother treated them, Atlas got Quinn away from her and the two attempted to escape. However, Quinn realized they didn’t have anywhere to go that their mother wouldn’t find them—they were only kids, after all, and Atlas could get into serious trouble. Quinn stopped Atlas and convinced him that they needed to go back to their mother, but thanked him for trying with a kiss on the cheek. After this, Quinn’s mother was furious and tried to keep the two from seeing each other at all. In spite of this, not only did Quinn stay friends with Atlas, but they began identifying as genderfluid and lived an open life at school.

After their third year, however, Quinn’s mother found their diary, where Quinn had written everything about Atlas, their other Hogwarts friends, and about their journey with their gender. Quinn’s parents, having had enough of their disobedient child, pulled them from Hogwarts and enrolled them in Durmstrang. They told Quinn that they were not to ever speak with Atlas or any of their Hogwarts friends again. Quinn secretly wrote a letter to Eden, explaining that they were going to be gone from Hogwarts, not sure where they were going, and that they were terribly sorry for the sudden disappearance.

At Durmstrang Quinn had a rough go of it getting acclimated. The students and teachers were harsher than at Hogwarts, along with the surrounding climate. However, Quinn was able to find a small group of friends that made their years there a much easier journey. They thought many times about writing letters to their friends back at Hogwarts, but they were afraid of their parents somehow finding out and doling out some new, horrible punishment for them or their friends. After a while, Quinn thought maybe it was better that they made no contact; everyones lives were going on without them, anyway, so maybe it was better not to disrupt that.

Quinn’s parents didn’t contact them for a very, very long time. While Quinn attended Durmstrang, the only family they kept in contact with was their grandmother Chrysanthemum, lovingly referred to as Gram by Quinn, who regularly wrote to them to see what they were up to and how they were doing. Quinn would stay at Durmstrang over Christmas, and would go to Chrysanthemum's house in Ireland during the summers. Those summers were the shining joy of these years for Quinn; Gram was more of a mother figure to them than their actual mother ever was. Together they would bake, garden, knit, and whittle away the days having tea and chatting. If there’s anyone in this world Quinn knew they could never disappoint, it was Gram.

After graduation, Quinn decided that they didn’t want to return home. Durmstrang, though harsh, was somewhere so far away that Quinn felt they could truly reinvent themselves; they started growing out their hair, wearing more feminine clothing, and they began identifying as genderqueer and using all pronouns at all times. Going home felt like going backwards, on top of the fact that they weren’t ready to see their parents again. So instead they saved up money to travel, and they began staying in hostels and halfway houses while working odd jobs in different countries—a gardener for a rare magical plant collector in Germany, a seamstress in France, a bartender in Greece, among other things. This era of travel helped Quinn to understand different wizarding communities and cultures better than they ever had before, and it helped them discover more about who they wanted to be, how they wanted to live and what their character really was when you boiled it down—someone who was independent, driven, playful, creative and crafty.

During their three and a half years abroad, they would send letters to their Gram everywhere they went so that she wouldn’t worry so much about them. They would get letters back from Chrysanthemum, but eventually they started getting letters from their parents as well. Quinn would throw them away without opening them. In December of 2114, while Quinn was in Amsterdam, they got a letter from their grandmother telling them they needed to come back to London as soon as possible. Their mother had gotten very sick and was in the hospital. The doctors weren’t sure how long she had left. Gram had moved to London to help take care of her daughter, and she had an open bedroom in her apartment for Quinn to stay in. Quinn packed their things and moved back to London within a day.

After coming home, Quinn reconnected with their parents for the first time since they were at Durmstrang. Catherine was grateful to see Quinn, much to their surprise, but there was still a distance there that was wrought with tension. Quinn’s father, on the other hand, could barely look at them. Quinn could tell their parents weren’t happy about the way they looked, and it put them back into the headspace of being a kid again. Even though they’ve learned to that they have nothing to be afraid or ashamed of, interacting with their parents is still hard. Additionally, Catherine wouldn’t accept any kind of magical help with her sickness—she’s lived as a muggle, and she wants to die as one, too, much to the frustration of Chrysanthemum and Quinn.

Through being back home, despite the circumstances, Quinn is realizing that this is the place they want to be. Something always felt amiss in each new place they went to, and it took them coming home to realize that what they missed was home. They’re currently working as the personal assistant to the Minister for Magic, and are living with their Gram as they help to take care of their mother.
