Penny Haywood is the tritagonist of Harry Potter: Hogwarts Mystery.
History[]
Penny was born in London, United Kingdom in 1972 or 1973, to a Muggle father and a Muggle-born witch mother. She had a younger sister named Beatrice, born four years after her. in 1984 she was sorted into Hufflepuff.
In her first year, she was known for her impressive academic performance in Potions and her talent in Potion-making. She later befriended Jacob's sibling and helped them create the Sleeping Draught they needed to break into the locked room, where they were looking for the Cursed Vaults.
During the Hallowe'en Feast, she offered to help Jacob's sibling look for Dumbledore. Afterwards, with some convincing from Jacob's sibling, Penny agreed to brew a Wolfsbane Potion for Chiara Lobosca despite her intense fears, and eventually even became close friends with the fellow Hufflepuff, being the only student other than Jacob's sibling to whom Chiara revealed her secret of being a werewolf.
Jacob's sibling selected either Penny or Ben Copper to accompany them to the Locked Room in which there was cursed ice.
During her second year, Penny would help Jacob's sibling many times in their search for the Cursed Vaults, including potentially joining them and Bill Weasley in breaking into one at the end of their second year.
Penny met Jacob's sibling in the courtyard and helped coming up with the Artefact Room for a haunt of Erling during his stay in Hogwarts. When Erling went on a tour of the castle with the Fat Friar, they met Penny and Jacob's sibling in the Charms Classroom. After the ghosts left, Penny worried about how Erling and Sir Nicholas de Mimsy-Porpington planned to have their Deathday parties on the same night. Penny and Jacob's sibling met Nick at the Great Hall to work on the invitations, and discussed how being a ghost would be like. The pair went on to deliver the invitations, one of which was for Myrtle Warren.
During the Teacher Appreciation Celebration Penny was tasked with getting to know Professor Snape and helped Jacob's sibling brainstorm ways for them to get to know Professor McGonagall better.
During the theft of Hogwarts's pets, she contacted Jacob's sibling for help and helped them solve the mystery, then helped organise the celebration party after all the pets had been found.
