Madeline Tawhai Kaimarama
The Basics
Character's Name: Madeline Tawhai Kaimarama
Name meaning:
Madeline: English form of Magdalene, a title meaning “of Magdala”, which is a village in Israel. The name Magdala means “tower” in Hebrew.
Tawhai: A New Zealand native tree also known as silver beech, known for growing straight and tall. It has pale-coloured bark and small leaves with rounded teeth.
Nicknames: Madeline is called Maddy by everyone who knows her. While she has nothing against her full name, she prefers the informal sound of the nickname, and Madeline is used infrequently enough that she associates it with formal events and getting into trouble.
Character's Birthdate: 24 July 2036
Zodiac: Leo
Strengths: Confident – Ambitious – Generous – Loyal – Encouraging
Weaknesses: Domineering – Melodramatic – Stubborn – Vain
Leo is very independent but they need something to control and someone to admire them and appreciate them. They are fully capable of being greatly successful on their own but they are much happier if they have an audience and a following of people who look up to them. They would prefer not be alone. People are attracted to their zest for life and their warm spirit. They have the ability to lift up one's spirits and provide encouragement when times are rough. Their enthusiasm attracts people, they are social butterflies, not because they want to be but because people always naturally gravitate and surround them. Leo loves the new and extraordinary, they despise dull, regular routines and if this is what they are faced with, they will simply create their own drama and excitement. Having an amazing ability to bounce back from any feelings of despair or unfortunate events, they do not like to be unhappy, it hurts their pride so they will take matters into their own hands and make things right again. Leos could come into conflict with other powerhouse type of people who will not take orders, not give an inch, will not budge their opinion, they will understand and accept opinions of others but they do not take well to people to try to impose their beliefs on them.

A Little Deeper
Personality: Maddy is very outgoing, and loves adventures of all kinds. She is self-confident, often acting as the leader at least among her family. She is caring and protective towards her brothers and her friends, always taking care to make sure that no one is left out. Maddy is open and friendly; she will not hesitate to talk to people, although her confidence may come off as brash. She is very enthusiastic about her interests, and throws herself fully into whatever she puts her mind to. However, the activities she chooses to put her mind to may not be the ones her parents and teachers would prefer: Maddy is quick to identify and reject things that bore her, and often sees rule-breaking as an entertaining opportunity for adventure. She doesn’t set out to rebel, but when the rules (or even societal expectations) get in the way of what she wants to do she will not hesitate to break them. Or even think about the fact that she has.
Strengths:
- Maddy is outgoing and confident, a natural leader.
- Maddy cares deeply about the people close to her, and will not hesitate to stick up for them in any situation.
- Maddy is single-minded about her goals and ambitions, and once she has put her mind to something she will pursue it with a boundless energy and not stop until she has succeeded.
- Maddy is very reckless, prone to leaping into situations without thinking things through.
- While Maddy’s stubbornness can serve her well in some contexts, in others it makes her difficult to deal with. Once she has an idea in her head she will not back down even if she’s wrong, and if she wants to do something she will doggedly continue trying even if it’s not actually possible.
- Maddy is hot-headed; it doesn’t take much for her to lose her temper, and she can be prone to holding grudges.
Goals: Work with dragons.
Fears: Anything bad happening to her family.
Likes: red, green, sausages, imaginary games, fantasy
Dislikes: pastels, boredom, enclosed spaces, being told what to do
Boggart: Her brothers in trouble, with Maddy unable to help.
Patronus: Kea
History:
Maddy is the middle child and only girl of the rowdy Kaimarama family. Her parents work for the Department of Conservation, where in addition to their normal work in the national parks they look after the magical creatures living in New Zealand’s forests that their muggle co-workers are not equipped to deal with. This conservation work and the location of their home near the edge of the forest of Fiordland National Park means that Maddy and her brothers have had a relatively wild upbringing. They were homeschooled together, and spent a lot of time in the bush, and on family camping and tramping trips. The family are closer to each other than to anyone else, but they have a few close family friends in the local area. Maddy is often the ringleader of the kids’ adventures, but she is also very caring and protective, taking it upon herself to ensure that her brothers have everything they need. The family likes to play Dungeons and Dragons around the campfire, and while at home they also had a regular game with a local muggle family. The latter gradually broke up once William left for Hogwarts.
