Biography: The Danvers were born to a witch and a wizard who joined two powerful families with a marriage. Cal Danvers was the only remaining descendent of the Danvers family, an old and powerful line that had survived ages. Kate Lockhart was from the main branch of the Lockhart line, possessing most of their wealth and prestige. An intelligent couple, they were very well-matched, though they would never have seen it without a little help... Their marriage was not a choice of their own -- it was arranged. Somehow, the two managed to find something good in that coice. They fell in love, and finally they decided to provide their families with an heir. To them, in total, seven children were born.
Their firstborn was a boy; Reid Velkan, who was to inherit most everything. To him fell the responsibility of upholding the family name, power, and honor. He was to inherit the Danvers main castle in Bulgaria, a greater portion of the wealth, and of course the family's greatest heirloom - a secret that is told from father to son at the age of 19. Time is fast approaching, and Reid is more interested in girls and Quidditch than he is in his father's family. The question is, can Reid straighten up and live up to his destiny?
Caleb and Kate's second son, Aerich Danlen, was born only 8 months later. He was born early, and they feared the worst, but he made it through. He would inherit the Danvers castle in Ireland, which was their secondary home. He would get an equal amount of the wealth that was to be split amongst the remaining children. Being in the same year as Reid, he has to deal with the nicknames, being second-best, and always being compared to his older brother. Can Aerich rise above everything and push aside his doubts, or will he succomb to being a failure?
The third Danvers child was a twin, Aerich's to be exact. Joseph Krystian was born a few minutes after Aerich, and he was a surprise in himself. They had not known Kate was carrying twins, so when they were holding him, they were pretty shocked themself. They had three sons by now, and little did they know that more would be on the way soon. Joe was to inherit the Danvers castle in Italy, which was smaller than the one in Bulgaria, but almost equal in size to Aerich's inheritance. He received the same amount of wealth that Aerich would. Surprisingly enough, he was not shadowed by either of his older brothers. Outgoing and fun, he was accepted by nearly everybody, and so he managed to keep himself above the water. Where Aerich had issues at school, Joe had issues at home, where he was rarely there for his family because of his own problems. Can Joseph pull it together and keep himself strong for his family, or will he fall and fail them completely?
The fourth Danvers child was another boy, Vance Patrick, was born 8 months after Aerich and Joe, two months early. He was very sickly until the age of three, when he finally improved. They were afraid he would not make it many times, but somehow he managed to stay alive. He was yet another twin, though this time they had their first girl. He was born mere minutes before her, but he would constantly remind her when she started to annoy him. Vance would inherit the Lockhart main castle in Ireland and an equal portion of the wealth, as they all would. Vance, unlike the others, was more neglected for reasons he shares with no ones. His own issues and emotions cloud his judgement, and he often loses sight of what truly matters. Can Vance get through his emotional problems and finally open up to someone?
The fifth Danvers child was the very first girl. Miley Keira was born minutes after her twin, Vance. She was the complete opposite of her twin, so healthy that the doctors were surprised themselves. Over time, it was seen that these two were not like Aerich and Joe. The first set of twins were very close, though they looked nothing alike. They had some similar interests, if different fashion senses, but Vance and Miley were not like that. These two were almost complete opposites. Their only similar trait was their love of all things intelligent. They rarely saw eye to eye, and truly Vance was closer to Aerich and Joe than he was to his own twin. Miley struggled with trying to live up to her mother's reputation, trying to be the best sister, student, and everything else. It was hard, and it was only a matter of time before she fell; and she didn't know who would catch her. Can Miley live up to her mother's reputation as one of the smartest witches of her age while also trying to be the 'mom' of the family?
The sixth Danvers child was Hope Jayla, who was adamant about being called Jayla. She was a whole lot of drama poured in and combined with pep and energy. Basically, she was the witch equivalent of a muggle cheerleader captain. Honestly, the others were afraid of her at times. Her weakness, you ask? Mornings. She hated them. At any rate, she was to inherit the Danvers castle in Scotland, which was the smallest they owned. Or, at least the ones that her father had inherited. The others belonged to her grandparents and such, which was fine with all of them. But underneath Jayla's act, she was very much insecure and hurting. She had grown up without a mother, and try as Miley might, she just wasn't the same. Can she stop pretending that everything's okay and just let someone catch her when she's falling instead of trying so desperately to hold onto the edge?
The seventh, and last, Danvers child to be born was Charity Theresa, who was the spitting image of her mother. She was beautiful and sweet, intelligent and kind. To the family, she was a miracle that could not have been any sweeter, and all of them would have killed anyone that would have dared to lay a hand on her. She would inherit the Lockhart castle in Scotland, which made her very happy. Of course, the only reason was that her best friend lived in Scotland, and it would work out well for the two of them. What could possibly be a problem for Charity, you ask? She is so young and innocent, that she usually sees the best in people and completely misses the worst, but she has her own fears in life and has troubles overcoming them. Can Charity overcome her fears and find her own identity away from her family, or will she forever be the little sister that can't defend herself?
Life for the Danvers was pretty normal, up until Miley was 4. You see, her mother loved to ride horses, and after a while she finally got to ride, no longer being pregnant and all that. So she had been riding a horse with Vance and Joseph there with her, and they had been staring at it with wide eyes and laughing and clapping. Reid was with his father and younger siblings, taking care of them and playing, wrestling. They had been having a picnic. Well, his mother had been riding when they horse got spooked, reared, and knocked her off. She hit her head on the rocks as she went flying, tumbling over the small cliff to land in the water, where she drowned.
Things were never the same. Her father became much more distant, though he relied heavily on Reid, Aerich, and Joseph to take care of Miley, Jayla, and Charity. Vance... He was forgotten in his fathers eyes, really, and Miley and the others didn't notice for a few years. Somehow, they made it, and they were all entered into school. Miley, being the younger sister of Reid, Aerich, and Joe, got a lot of the nicknames that came along with the territory. She ignored it, though, and focused on her studies and taking care of her younger sisters. She also had to take care of Vance, and she was the only one, aside from Joe, who even tried to take care of the family at home. At least, the whole cooking and cleaning and whatnot. She didn't have many friends, and those she did were usually as studious as she.
At Hogwarts, she really never found a place to fit in. Sure, being at the top of her class was nice, but she never really connected to anyone there. She, like Joe, had been thinking about switching to another school, but she couldn't bear to mention it to her father. He was always reminding her of how much she reminded him of her mother. She hated it. But halfway through her sixth year, her father transferred them to Beauxbatons, saying that they needed to go somewhere else. She didn't ask why, they just did what he said. If they didn't, well, it wasn't too pretty. Once arriving, they all went their separate ways, though they ended up meeting together at the same time on occasion just to see each other again.
Personality: Miley is a rather complex girl underneath everything. To most people, she will seem cold and calculating. Sure, she is always willing to offer help to someone, but she always stays distant. It's hard for her to make friends, partly because she is constantly studying and also because of her family. Being the oldest girl, she has most of the pressure to be the 'mom' of the family, meaning it's up to her to take care of everyone. Joe helps some, but even he can't do it all, and when it comes down to it, he would rather practice. On top of that, her father pressures her to be just as good as her mother. His expectations of her are so high, and she feels like she can never be who he wants her to be.
Underneath her strong exterior, she is a wreck. She has never had a boyfriend, so she completely pushes away boys who want more than a friendship from her. In tough times, she may not show that she cracks under pressure, but when she's alone it comes out, most often when she cries herself to sleep. She misses her mother more than anything, but she has never let anyone know that. She will appear like she doesn't care in class, or at least like she can ignore you pretty well or talk to you when she isn't doing her work. However, when she's alone with somebody she hardly knows, she gets very quiet and shy. It's easy to make her blush, especially if they try and comment her. It's even worse around boys, who despite all her smarts, she can never understand.
Physical Appearance: Miley is very fit, mostly because she likes to exercise and eat healthy alongside studying and music. And being the new 'mom' of her family, of course. She has dirty blonde hair and chocolate eyes. Nothing to fascinating, right? Her skin is slightly tanned, and she wears very little makeup. Whatever she wears is usually more natural colors. She rarely fixes her hair, and if she does it is only for special occasions. When not in uniform, she will wear jeans and some sort of plain top. Rarely does she wear elaborate or 'girly' clothing, in her eyes. She also is usually found in tennis shoes, of all of them. She doesn't see how high heels or fancy sandals or anything are convenient.
Other: Her siblings attending Beauxbatons are Reid Velkan Danvers (brother, 18); Aerich Danlen Danvers (brother, 17); Joseph Krystian Danvers (brother, 17); Vance Patrick Danvers (twin brother, 16); Hope Jayla Danvers (sister, 15); and Charity Theresa Danvers (sister, 14).
