Julia Wicker - The Magicians

[hedgings]

▬ She's really intelligent. Went to a school for gifted children and everything.
▬ She plays the oboe
▬ She used to want to get into political science somehow and move up in the world as someone shaping it. She's always had a mind for how the world works and how she can affect it ( headcanon )
▬ It's not really clear whether everyone is born able to do magic, but some only have the aptitude for it or if only a handful of people in the world can actually do magic in canon. The implication is that anyone technically can do it, but most don't have the aptitude for it.
▬ Julia was rejected from the Harry Potter equivalent from college, Brakebills.
▬ Julia is a classic overachiever and when she didn't get into Brakebills she cracked big time. See this picture.
▬ She's a level 250 hedge witch, hedge witch meaning she learned magic outside of a sanctioned school like Brakebills and level 250 being the highest level
▬ She knows French. And pieces of a bunch of languages for spells, but she can speak French fluently and does so with an accurate French accent from having lived in France for a few years. Her accent doesn't show when speaking English.
▬ She doesn't remember what love is or how to feel it. Not that she can't, she just broke herself too badly and has issues relating to people because of it now.
▬ She really needs people deep down, something she realized just before everyone she started to realize she loved was murdered in front of her
▬ She canonically has dysthymia, a type of depression
▬ Her worst magic is battle magic
▬ Sometimes she forgets to eat meal
▬ She has to be addicted to something. School, smoking, working, support groups, magic. She has an addictive personality and where one fails, something else will replace it

I have a lot of headcanons for her after this canon point, too, but these are mostly facts with some extra padding from me.

Does she like playing the oboe? Will she miss it in Hadriel?

[hedgings]

She does not like it or hate it. It's not something she pursues in her free time, but she doesn't actively hate it either. It was a means to an end, which at the time was getting into an ivy league college with a well-rounded application and a interesting instrument. Now that she doesn't care about college, she doesn't play it anymore and doesn't really miss it. But she wouldn't balk any more than usual at being asked to play it again.
