personality;; Daphne is strong-willed, stubborn and extremely loyal. She can be quite vindictive when someone wrongs her and will always try and find a way to get her revenge on them. Though she enjoys spending time with her friends, she can be quite the solitary creature and needs to spend time away from people. During these times she either roams the castle grounds, plays her violin in one of the deserted towers, or just finds a spot in the library to hide out in and read. Though she is very patient and it takes a lot to anger her, she can get extremely hostile and bitchy when mad. In her first years at Hogwarts, Daphne was meeker and more of a follower than a leader. However she proceeded to come out of her shell as the years went by and grew to become more confident and learned to oppose those that she felt were in the wrong. She now regularly stands up for herself, her friends, and for those that are either younger or weaker who cannot stand up for themselves. She hates bullying, regardless of whether it's coming from her house or not. Daphne also has a strong bond with her younger sister and would do anything for her. She is extremely protective over her and will hurt anyone who wrongs her. She adores her and considers Astoria to be her best friend. Like her father she values blood purity, but not to the extent other pure-bloods do. While she sees other pure-bloods as superior to half-and-muggle-bloods, she does not think they should be discriminated against, being taught from a young age that everyone should have an equal chance to achieve greatness.
family members;; Samuel Greengrass and Lisette Greengrass née Ashworth (parents), Astoria Greengrass (younger sister, 16)
other important figures;; Mitzi (house elf), Draco Malfoy and Pansy Parkinson (house-mates and friends-turned-enemies), Liana Stark (best friend), Fred Weasley (boyfriend)
occupation;; displaced witch and musician extraordinaire
skills and talents;; Daphne is skilled in Charms, Potion-making, and Herbology (though none of this is going to help her in Albion). However her greatest talent lies in music, a thing that both Muggles and the wizarding world enjoy greatly. She is a musical prodigy extremely talented on the piano and violin (though the violin is the instrument she favours and excels at more), and can play music by ear, not needing any sort of sheet music or prompts. She is well-versed on the lives of many classical composers and knows many scores off by heart (the most notable ones being Swan Lake and The Nutcracker Suite by Peter Tchaikovsky).
history;;The oldest of two, Daphne grew up having a happy but unremarkable childhood. Her parents were often away and from 5 years old, Daphne was left alone in the care of Mitzi. She soon grew quite independent and would wander around after the house, helping to look after toddler Astoria. Growing up, the Greengrass sisters were never in actual want of anything. Though their parents would often deny them things to prevent them from growing up spoilt, money was never an issue for the family. While growing up, the family would often go overseas to vacation and it quickly became tradition for each summer holiday to bring about a new destination, never a repeat.

At eleven, when the family were staying in France, Daphne received her Hogwarts acceptance letter. Her wand was bought there and Daphne spent the rest of the Summer wondering which house she'd get sorted into. At the Sorting, she was put in her father's ex-house, Slytherin. Her favourite subjects quickly became Charms and Potions. One night when she couldn't sleep, she snuck down to the Great Lake to play her violin and was caught by Professor Flitwick. Instead of giving her detention, he suggested that she join up with the school's orchestra, which Daphne did the very next day.

During her first year at Hogwarts, she made friends with Draco and Pansy, wanting to be part of the popular crowd. However as she came to realize that the pair were nothing more than bullies and tattle-tales, she began distancing herself from these so-called "friends" and would spend as much time away from the Slytherin common room as possible. She became distant and her self-esteem plummeted as she had no one else to turn to; she had no other friends outside of Slytherin. During this time Daphne would focus mostly on her violin and on school work, either hiding out in the towers or at the library. When Astoria arrived at Hogwarts, Daphne was completely overjoyed, mainly because it meant that she would finally have a friend at the school. She took great delight in showing her sister around and being her sister's protector, just like she had been when they were growing up.

By her third year she became completely disillusioned with the pair, the breaking point being the Hippogriff incident in Professor Hagrid's Care of Magical Creatures class. Sick of the way that Malfoy gave Slytherin a bad rep to everyone in her year, she stood up to him and Pansy, earning her the respect of the elder students but the wrath of the younger students who looked up to the male. She had a letter sent home but the whole affair was hushed up as best as possible so as not to cause any scandals. After that point Daphne completely stopped caring what the rest of the school thought of her, and with that her confidence began to rise. She made a few friends with some of the elder students but she was still very much alone, except for Astoria. Despite wanting nothing more than to have friends who love her for her, she has come to the realization that that would probably not happen, at least any time soon.

As the years passed, Daphne flourished into a social butterfly. Though she still tended to be a hermit at times, she made new friends that helped her come out of her shell; she also got the position of first chair violin in the school orchestra, a position that helped her confidence soar even higher. She was regularly in detention, however, as she would often stand up to bullies and end up either dueling them or straight-up fighting them. Her teachers didn't know what to do with her because apart from these tendencies she was a good student and an excellent addition to the school orchestra. Daphne happily went to all detentions that were handed out to her, and though she often complained in the company of her own friends, she wore the detentions as a badge of honour, something that landed her in a lot of hot water with her father. But Daphne didn't care; she was standing up for the little guy just like her father had always taught her to. She wanted to prove to the school that Slytherins weren't all a bunch of snobby jerks like her housemates were.

It was during one of her frequent trips to detention that she met Fred Weasley. She had seen him in the halls and heard all about his and his twin's various exploits, but she never paid him any attention. He was a Gryffindor, and Gryffindor's hated Slytherin's. It was a house-rivalry spanning back so long that it was ingrained in all Hogwarts students. Even though she had proved that she was different from the rest of them, she felt like she still had to prove herself to the twins, and that was a prospect she didn't like. She didn't want to have to prove herself to anyone, and she hated the idea of someone disliking her just for her house, without knowing her personally. However as the detention meetings became more regular, the two came to like each other and eventually started dating, continuing on even after Fred and George left school. While they ran their joke shop, Daphne made great plans for herself to join the London Wizarding Symphony Orchestra upon leaving school. However that plan wasn't to be, as the Second Wizarding War started. She participated in the final battle, along with her parents and sister. However mid-battle she was swallowed up by a portal, along with Fred, and dumped out in Albion.
