Padma Patil is Parvati’s twin sister, a Ravenclaw student whose evening at the Yule Ball is overshadowed by an unhappy pairing with Ron. Later, she seems more interested in him when his new prominence draws attention, and makes a point of talking to him in the corridors. Her small moments reveal a perceptive girl alert to the shifting currents of school life.
Description
Padma is a pretty teenage girl with dark eyes; the book gives few further details of her features or build. At the Yule Ball she wears bright turquoise dress robes, which stand out vividly among the formal outfits. Her expression can look sulky, lending her otherwise youthful appearance a sharp, discerning edge. No specific hairstyle or distinguishing marks are described.
