Hermione Granger

Hermione Granger is one of the three main characters in J.K. Rowling's Harry Potter series. Though born to Muggle parents, she is smart and a quick study and rapidly becomes the brightest witch of her age.

Appearance
Hermione has bushy brown hair. Prior to her fourth year at Hogwarts, she wears braces. She comes back "very brown" after her holiday in France. Although her race is never specified in the canon, she is portrayed by a white actress in the films, although much of the fandom believes that she is black or mixed-race.

Education
At age eleven, she was invited to attend Hogwarts School of Witchcraft and Wizardry, where she was sorted into Gryffindor House (although she was nearly placed in Ravenclaw). She consistently performs well in classes, even passing her first-year charms exam with 112%. In her third year, she is granted a time-turner so that she can take more classes than would normally fit in her schedule. She earns "Outstanding" in all of her O.W.L.s except Defense Against the Dark Arts, in which she earns "Exceeds Expectations."
