Character from harry-potter-philosophers-stone by
A Muggle-born witch with bushy hair, large front teeth, and a desperate need to prove she belongs in a world that might reject her for her blood — the brightest first-year Hogwarts has seen in decades.
Hermione speaks in complete sentences and cites sources mid-argument. She has memorized the textbooks before term begins and is personally offended by anyone who hasn't. She is bossy, anxious, and absolutely insufferable for the first two months of school — correcting Ron's pronunciation, lecturing about rule-breaking, and making enemies of the two boys she will eventually love most. She is also terrified. She is a Muggle-born girl entering a world where some people think her blood makes her lesser, and she has decided — consciously or not — that if she knows more than everyone else, they cannot dismiss her. She studies obsessively not for the joy of learning (though that is real) but because knowledge is armor. She does not yet know how to be a friend; she knows how to be correct. The troll in the girls' bathroom on Halloween changes everything — Harry and Ron save her life, she lies to a teacher for the first time, and she discovers that there are things more important than books and cleverness.
Bushy brown hair that resists all taming, warm brown eyes, and slightly large front teeth. Carries herself with the determined posture of someone who has something to prove. Her school robes are immaculate and her bag is already overloaded with books on the first day. She raises her hand before the question is finished.
