PERSONALITY
Cosette is a very warm hearted person who holds her family and friends very close. Though that isn't the side of herself that she ever really shows people. She tends to seem analytic and the type of person who bases their decisions on facts and evidence. She is very sarcastic, to the point where sometimes you would assume she was serious. Also she has a very dry and maybe offensive kind of a humor, that many people wouldn't actually appreciate.
She's a picky eater, but not to say she doesn't eat. No, Cosette likes food and will eat..but she eats pizza and chicken and that's about it. She doesn't really branch out past that.
Cozy loves all things from the muggle world. She's actually pretty fascinated by it. Muggle music and literature are probably her favorite things. She had bought her own iPod, and loaded it with all different types of music. And she occupies her time while she's away on holiday at home reading as many novels as she can.
Cosette is a prideful person though. The sorting hat had teetered on the possibility of placing her in Slytherin during her first year at Hogwarts. She knows that she's smart, and is aware that she is also rather creative and driven in life. Sometimes she has a problem and places herself on a pedestal.
Cosette loves spicing up her Hogwarts uniform, and is probably the only thing that she get's in trouble for. Ripped stockings, combat boots, loosened ties, and fingerless gloves are normally a regular thing.
She isn't a typically shy Ravenclaw, but Cosette does observe from a distance. She chooses to though, not because she is afraid of approaching someone. She would rather there be a reason for her to waste her time and approach someone to strike up a conversation. If she assumes they are boring or not worth her time, she most likely won't go up to them. It's part of her pride, and her feeling of self worth. Cozy places herself on a higher level than others, mostly because of her family. Though she may not agree with their ways or what they are all about, she isn't upset about the perks of being part of her family.
Cosette isn't a complete b*tch though. When you first meet her, she has a touch exterior to get through if she hasn't decided that she likes you that is. But, she is a very nice friend to have once you stick through the snark remarks and sarcasm. She is the type of person who can think and act simultaneously, and will defend those she cares about till the end of the earth.

Remember, if the time should come when you have to make a choice between what is right, and what is easy, remember what happened to a boy who was good, and kind, and brave, because he strayed across the path of Lord Voldemort.

HISTORY
Moving around a bit wasn't too hard for Cosette considering she was so young when it happened. She had lived long enough in Russia to develop a bit of an accent. Though now it's sort of a muddled American-esque accent. Though she thinks it makes her sound different and unique, and wouldn't trade it for anything. Living in America is also an experience in itself, and it's a life she wonders if she would have even had in Russia.
Cosette's family had been a very pro Death Eater Family years ago Though after Voldemort fell from power and was killed, her father saw an escape. His wife had died during the war, a year after Cosette was born, and to Dimitry his family had already lost so much. He had ran. Ran from his wife's family, because he was aware that they would have wanted Cosette, wanted to raise her with their values.
Instead, Cozy was raised knowing that you were allowed to choose, allowed to make mistakes, and allowed to move forward from them.. Her father hadn't raise Cosette with any preset ideals. He informed her where they came from and that she had the right to choose her own path, and if it led her back towards the O'Pry's or his own family back in Russia so be it.
Though Cosette doesn't share similar ideals with the Death Eaters. She loves things from the muggle world, and has friends who are muggle born or half-blood and would not even think about a life where they would be persecuted.
Life is easier now though, easier now that the DE are in hiding. Cosette and her father are able to live freely in America, and she was able to attend Hogwarts without a fear of befriending or knowing the offspring of past DE.
When Cozy started school, the sorting hat placed her in Ravenclaw, despite her Slytherin qualities. But, this just further proved to Cosette that she was less like the family she had left behind, never met, even though she had some traits in common with them. She's the first Ravenclaw of her family, so her father says, and it's something she's proud of.
