Backstory

I was born under an unsettlingly bright star in a small town nestled between rolling hills and whispering woods. My father is a Muggle botanist and my mother is a witch who once roamed the hallowed halls of Hogwarts, I grew up straddling two worlds—one vibrant with ordinary life, the other shimmering with magic. I inherited my mother's enchanting features: ice-white hair that glistened like freshly fallen snow and striking purple eyes that seemed to capture fragments of distant galaxies. Though I relished exploring my mother's world of spellbooks and potion ingredients hidden within stacks of neatly organized plants, I often felt out of place amid my peers at school. When my acceptance letter arrived from Hogwarts School of Witchcraft and Wizardry, my heart raced with excitement tinged by anxiety. With every step toward Platform 9¾, butterflies churned wildly in my stomach; it was as if I were crossing into another realm altogether. In this new environment filled with incredible possibilities and incredible dreams suddenly tethered to reality I quickly discovered both camaraderie and challenge. My half-blood status sometimes cast whispers around me like fog creeping through the Forbidden Forest yet they fueled a fire within me a determination not only to excel but also to unite those who bore similar burdens.
