Name: Nisha Lewis
House & Year: Coppertale Sophomore
Hometown: She’ll claim Huntington, West Virginia, but her legal address has been in New York since she was ~9. Her parents own a house in Friar’s Beach, New York, which is an upper class wizarding neighborhood in Nassau County. It’s predominantly vacation homes, so it’s a quiet, lonely neighborhood. Nisha spends her time literally anywhere else.

School History:

Nisha attended a private magical day school in West Virginia until she was nine.

And then spent two years at a different private magical day school in New York.

And then went to Ilvermorny at 11, where she was sorted into Wampus.

She tried out for quidditch at 12 and made the Wampus team as a reserve (chaser/seeker).

She made the school team as a freshman (chaser) and played against Gooseberry and they got their asses beat but hot damn now THIS is a QUIDDITCH SCHOOL. Nisha’s going to go HERE. And that’s THE ONLY REASON. There are NO OTHER REASONS. Don’t LOOK AT HER LIKE THAT.

So she is new to Gooseberry this year as a sophomore, and was sorted into Coppertale.

Class Involvement:

Nisha is the worst kind of disinterested. She spaces out. Puts her head down. Barely takes notes.

But her grades are still good, because once test time rolls around she nails the material. She knows how to School, even if she doesn’t necessarily like it. And she studies hard.

Hates participating.

Approaches group projects warily, and will attempt to seize control if she feels like things are not going the right way.

Is the sort of person who would skip class because it’s a nice day out and she wants to eat a hot dog, but will only do it if she won’t get caught.

Campus Presence:

On a broom, if she can swing it. Check the Quidditch pitch.

The dance room is a fair bet, too.

The computer lab, where she is eager to show you the dankest memes.

Or just anywhere there’s a lot of people. Nisha doesn’t like being alone, so she hangs out in the atrium or the library

Party Time:

Nisha will probably go to parties explicitly because she was told not to go to the Grotto by her brother.

Nisha will absolutely throw that Lewis money at party supplies.

She is not presently a drinker or a smoker, because she is a tiny baby infant, but I anticipate she will descend into the trash eventually.

She is highly susceptible to peer pressure. SHE DOESN’T WANT YOU TO LIKE HER 凸(>皿<)凸 ... but actually she really, really does.

Best Friends: LOL :’) UH, I guess here’s a good place to say that she likes Reid (and is going to just … torment him mercilessly I am so sorry Reid) and the Stokers a whole lot (anyone who coldcocks some sense into her brother is okay in her book). She is probably in an ongoing prank war with Freddy Stoker. She thinks Clem and Roxie are literally the coolest girls in the school. And I have a sneaking suspicion that she is going to make a lot of very good friends this year.
Cliques:

The Coppertale quidditch team, prob.

Any Quidditch-players, generally, especially girls, she’s going to gravitate toward.

Out-of-School Social Circles:

MACUSA Kids! Nisha is definitely a MACUSA child and has been to many an insufferable banquet and fundraiser.

Nisha keeps in touch with a few of her former Ilvermorny teammates and some of her roommates.

The Not Friends: Nisha ditching Ilvermorny for Goosberry was Not Well Received by her former team, especially since she made a huge blustery deal about how she was doing it for quidditch, so she is not on Super Great terms with most of the Ilvermorny quidditch players.

Sexuality: A mystery wrapped in an enigma wrapped in a hard taco shell layered with refried beans wrapped in a sheet of edible rice paper wrapped in a New York style pizza.
Dating History: This child is a Lewis. There’s no way.
Current Relationship Status: Eating Cool Ranch doritos while sitting side saddle on a broom.
The Messy Bits: Why would Nisha bother with messy relationship stuff when she’s already got so many other things to be a mess about.

Common Knowledge:

Nisha Lewis is the daughter of the MACUSA state rep for West Virginia.

And the little sister of former Ribbonfin disaster and part time pangolin, Xavier Lewis.

Nisha is A Very Good Quidditch Chaser.

She was a competitive gymnast for most of her childhood and gave that up for quidditch. Her two best events were uneven bars and vault. She will complain at length about the fact that competitive steady rings is male-only.

Nisha Lewis LOVES a good prank.

She prefers broomriding to walking and doesn’t understand why you won’t just let her be lazy and fly everywhere.

Personal Stuff:

Nisha got a compliment from a scout after the Ilvermorny-Gooseberry game last year :’)

Her home situation is kind of a disaster.

She’s like freaky good at understanding Hermeticism concepts. It’s the first academic course she’s taken that’s really held her interest.

The Secrets:

Nisha actually decided to come to Gooseberry because her brother seemed happy here, and she wanted a piece of that happiness, too.

She’s got some body image issues. She’s extremely tiny and very triangle-shaped and not slight or soft and she just feels awkward and not “right.”

She really, desperately wants friends and to be loved, to, like, an absolutely pathetic degree.
