Background
Franca was born in the UK, but grew up in France on her family estate. Her father was the youngest child to the fabled Count of Monte Cristo. The family was disgustingly rich since her great grandfather found the legendary treasure of Sparta. Through other dealings and enterprises the wealth of the family grew. Her mother, Justine, was the president of the Swiss bank that held the majority of the family money and thats where she met the young Edmund Monte Cristo.
With the death of his father and being the only boy in the family Edmund and Justine became the Count and Countess Monte Cristo. Her mother left her post at the Swiss bank when she became pregnant, the job was too demanding on her time and she wanted to be with her daughter. Franca spent her days running and tumbling through the grounds of the Cristo estate. She was a happy child, but extremely intelligent. She could read at 16 months and was talking in full complete sentences by the time she was two. She wasn't put into regular muggle primary school, she was placed into a special program for gifted youngsters.
The family was shocked and totally surprised on the morning of May 5th when an owl swooped into the breakfast room and deposited a strange looking envelop into the lap of young Franca. She was accepted into Hogwarts and sorted into Gryffindor. A new world was opened up for Franca and she flourish at Hogwarts where she found her passion for potions. She was the youngest president of the Young Society for Potioneers at 12 years old, and she was featured on the cover of Today Potion at the age of 13 for her alchemy advances in the field.
She was given special permission to take her NEWTs in her 4th year, and she passed all of them with high marks. Only the 5th person in Hogwarts history to do so and the youngest, she entered the French Ministry at the age of 15 and she was the division head for Potions and Wacky Concoctions by the time she was 17. She loved what she did, but as division head she was stuck behind a desk most of the day and that didn't leave enough time for her to focus on her real passion. Creating new potions or improving old ones, so when she heard of a opening for a potions master at the Romanian school she jumped at it. She didn't need to work for the money, she did it for the pure joy and love of the field.
She dropped the Monte part of her name just to try and blend in a bit more, so she just goes by Franca Cristo now.
Personality
Franca is a bubbly person, she always has a smile on her face, and she loves being around people. She loves being in the thick of things and down in the trenches getting dirty. She is a bit OCD with her hygiene as most geniuses are. She washes her hands over and over again, and she takes special care of her nails. She goes every 2 weeks to a muggle nail shop to get her nails and toes done. She may like to get rough and tumble but she is a lady after all. She puts people at ease wherever she goes. She never understood why people acted funny around her just because she was possibly the most intelligent person in the room, she still considered herself a regular person. She's not one to lord her intelligence over anyone and she isn't even one to announce her accomplishments to people who don't already know. If asked about it, she will most likely shrug and say "its no big deal,"
