Relationship History
Rolf Scamander: Rose met Rolf during her 3rd year at Hogwarts. For once, her skills of getting out of a tricky situation had failed, and she ended up in detention with him. Detention under the reign of the DE, however, more often than not included corporeal punishment, and when Rolf – though at the time still a scrawny kid – put himself between her and Carrow, it was the beginning of a close friendship. Though Rolf didn't return to Hogwarts for his 6th year, they still kept in touch, and though afterwards, Rose had several flings with a lot of witches and wizards, she knew that Rolf was the love of her life. She could wait, though. All she wanted was for him to be happy, and if that didn't include her in a romantic sense, then she would be happy like that, too.
Things changed, when they both found themselves based in London; Rolf due to the unfortunate circumstances of his severe injuries and Rose as part of her training. The more time they spend together, the less they were able to ignore the feelings that were developing between them. Rose moved into Rolf's flat in early 2007.

Physical Description
PB: Zoey Deutch
General: At 5'4'' Rose hardly makes for a physically imposing person, but that's alright. Her slight frame is just perfect for working in tight, confined spaces. It's a rare occasion when Rose wears clothes that aren't dark or made from sturdy material such as leather or dragon hide. She prefers boots to shoes and has built up quite the collection and while she's not really one for jewellery such as necklaces or bracelets, she has a love for finger rings and is always wearing at least one on each hand, more often than not more. Has a small Δ (delta) tattooed right below the hairline at the back of her neck.

Personality
First Impression: Confident, in charge, and solely getting by on her good looks.
Sexuality: Bisexual
General: Born and raised in Upper Flagley to Magical parents, Rose grew up surrounded by both magic and Muggles. From an early age she learned that different situations called for different behaviours; when you played with the girl next door, brooms were used for travel and sports, but if you ventured down the street to the boy who lived in the blue house with the green door, a broom was used to sweep the floor. Rose learned to adapt.

Rose was born without a shy bone in her body, and yet, she is very reluctant to show off her intellect. It suits her much better if people underestimate her or at least don't take her for a smart person right away. She has a near photographic memory, making it easy for her to pick up new knowledge, whether it is historical facts, new languages or Arithmatical, Transfigurational or Magical theories.

Though she is far from shy, she's still very private about herself, her background and private life in particular. What you see is what she lets you see or what she wants you to believe you're seeing. She loves physical intimacy and has very few boundaries or limits in that area.

Finally, Rose is loyal. Capital L loyal. It may take a while to earn her trust that you won't just abandon her to fend for herself – which she is more than capable of – but once you have her trust, there's hardly a limit to what she won't do for you. She may not express that openly, but she will.

History
Childhood: It was hardly love at first sight when history scholar and former Ravenclaw Aaron Mark Zeller met the likeminded daughter of a Romanian diplomat, Mihaela Lilliana Dumitrescu, and nobody really knows if love has ever grown between them. However, a mutual, genuine respect for each other and a shared obsession with studying historic literature and documents created a solid bond between them. Their marriage was solely for the purpose of ensuring that Mihaela's staying in England, after her parents' return to Romania, was legal. How the two of them – practical, analytical and about as physically affectionate as marble – managed to produce a child, or why, for that matter, is still a mystery to the very few aware of their family situation. Rose's main theory on the matter is, that it was their near obsessive need for research that led them to experiment, which in turn led to her conception.

And so it was that Rose Elena Zeller was born, on February 14, 1984.

Rose grew up under the watchful eye of, well, assorted nannies and other parents in Upper Flagley. Mihaela and Aaron saw no reason to bring a child along on their travels around the world to give and attend lectures, leaving Rose either to nannies or sleep-overs, and as she got older: to her own devices. Her parents' interest in history naturally rubbed off on her, but rather than simply reading about it and studying what other people had written about it, she wanted to find history, see it for herself, touch it and document it; Rose wanted to be a Curse-Breaker, because it sounded so full of the adventures that Upper Flagley so greatly was lacking.

During the sorting ceremony, the Sorting Hat was leaning towards Ravenclaw for the eager-to-learn Rose, however, it was her almost stubborn determination to be more than just a scholar, that landed her in Hufflepuff. She wanted to go her own way, and so she did, and with a near eidetic memory, it was easy for her to get the classes and grades needed to fulfil her dream.

Rose was 13, just starting her 3rd year at Hogwarts when the Ministry fell and the Wizarding World fell into war. For the first time she asked her parents if she could go with them on their travels instead of returning to Hogwarts and was told that their schedule didn't allow for a child to be included and that fear was all in the mind and therefore not anything that should come between her and her education.

It was during the war and the DE's reign of Hogwarts that she discovered her skills when it came to manipulating people. More often than not, she was able to talk or manoeuvre her own or a fellow student's way out of a sticky situation, and if that didn't work, she had no qualms about taking it further than just talking by forging the papers or parchments needed to seal the deal.

Along with the other young students, Rose was dismissed and safely escorted away from the old castle to anxiously await news about what was happening. When the parents came to pick up their children, Rose was met by the son of her uncle's business associate; her parents were travelling and had asked her uncle to get her, a task her uncle had passed on to his partner who believed that Rose might find it less intimidating to be picked up by a stranger closer to her age than a stranger only slightly younger than her grandparents.

He was right.

It didn't take long for Rose to form a bond with the 8 years older Vasile Cojocaru, who as a newly fledged Auror had the skills to back up his offer of teaching her how to defend herself. Rose never really understood why he would make that offer, but she didn't care, because it sounded interesting, far more so than doing nothing, and over the summer Vasile spent his free time with Rose teaching her all the defensive skills that didn't require magic. Rose spent the rest of her summers off from Hogwarts with the Cojocaru's.

Adulthood: Straight out of Hogwarts, Rose followed her years long dream and entered the Cursebreaker training program joining up with a team working out of Gringott's London branch. It didn't take long for her to realise that professionally she trusted these people explicitly. Drawing on her experiences both from growing up in Upper Flagley and surviving the year at Hogwarts under DE rules, she was deemed by her team to have a natural knack for navigating the bureaucracy and corruption in acquiring the necessary permissions and paperwork to continue their work or export the loot treasures they excavated, however, her slight frame has earned her the place on the team as the one most likely to be sent into the narrowest of passages, while her skills in drawing are often used to document finds and analysing locations.
