PERSONALITY:
Sabina is a terribly self conscious individual, she often worries about what other people think of her, but compensates for this by "knowing" that she is better than them. Ever the Slytherin, Sabina is skilled at presenting the required facade at the right time, and it is unlikely people even know they are being kept at arm's length.
Her history has taught Sabina to only rely on herself, and because of this she has very exacting standards, going even beyond what is expected of her. Although, this is also linked with her perfectionism, which by now has grown to unhealthy proportions.
However, this doesn't mean Sabina can't have fun. She has some very amusing quirks and can be quite silly, provided you're able to get through her tough exterior.

CHARACTER HISTORY
------------------------------------------------------------
Early Years:
Sabina grew up in the style of many pureblood children her age. She saw a nanny more often than her own parents and was not unfamiliar with the magical world well before she turned eleven.
Having a cousin so close to her own age helped, of course, although she was terribly jealous when Claudia was allowed to attend Hogwarts before her. Though she knew Claudia was older, it still didn't seem fair. Even at the tender age of ten, she was well aware that her cousin's family, while prestigious, were far less important than her own.
Hogwarts Years: The first few years of Sabina's sojourn in Hogwarts passed with barely a murmur. She shone in the reflection of Claudia's easy popularity and got on with the stand-out high achiever among Slytherin house. That is, until Bittel came along.
Of course, Caelani had been there all along. They'd been in the same year for, well, years. It just wasn't until sixth year that she decided to make Sabina's life painfully annoying. It started off with the smallest of things. Sabs walked into the common room right at the beginning of term and there was Caelani Bittel, with a whole bottle of goblin wine for Merlin's sake! It was one of those things that was so cool, Sabina could hardly ignore it. So she went over and said hello.
And Caelani shared her goblin wine (yes!) and spent the entire conversation condescending to her. It was like she simply didn't know her place. How could she have spent six years in the same school as Sabina and not know that you just don't talk down to a Lond?
But as it turned out, Caelani spoke down to everyone, including the teachers. She got three detentions in the next week, one of them for six people, including Sabina. Sabina had never had a detention in her life!
However things too a turn in her seventh year when Sabina was attacked by a dark wizard. A man called Edward Hardcastle in the course of the event boasted that he was too good to become a Death Eater.
Caelani was able to verify Sabina's story to the authorities as she had also encountered the man, although his attack on her had been mental - an unsophisticated attempt at legilimency - and this became the foundation of their friendship.
After a series of disturbing notes in Hardcastle's handwriting turned up in Sabina's dormitory, she dropped out of school and went into hiding. At least, that was the official reason.
Adulthood:
David Lond was born 5 October 2017, a welcome respite to Sabina's routine. She had gained weight for the pregnancy, but loathed the sight of herself and ordered mirrors be turned to the wall or sent out of the house where she was staying entirely.
She still occasionally received letters or notes from her stalker, and is still worried he will one day turn up to claim David.
Recently, Caelani and Claudia turned up on a thestral, bringing the news of Grindalwald before the papers could distort it. They believe it's best for Sabina to return home, where at least she'll be surrounded by people who can defend her. Like them. However, she intends to remind them that she still knows how to use a wand.
