History:
Nina-Rae is the youngest of four siblings and the second girl. Her oldest sibling is her sister, then two brothers and then her. As the baby of the family, she was quite spoiled, her sister was old enough to take care of herself and her brothers were minimal effort for their parents so she got a lot of attention from them all. This might sound like a good thing but it would end up having a negative effect on the young girl. As she was growing up she was quite dependant on her family for all her social needs and when she was thrown out into the real world of Primary school she quickly retreated into her shell and became a bundle of shyness and silence. She would end up having a fairly lonely existence in school, making not even a handful of friends and as such she needed a way to fill that silence, books were her escape. She'd been a relatively smart child, not a genius by any stretch but she was reading at a level far beyond her peers. Her favorite books were those of the fantasy genre, having read things like Alices Adventure in Wonderland, The Lord of the Rings, The Magicians Guild and the Chronicles of Narnia. Needless to say, she was a big fan of the idea of magic and mystical lands and creatures and would spend a lot of time writing her own stories or drawing her favorite characters or animals. Her first experience with real magic came when she was ten years old, she was fairly anti-social in school and a couple of girls who thought perhaps a little highly of themselves decided it would be good to tease her, she tried her best to ignore it, she'd heard words spoken behind her back before and sure it was hurtful but she persevered. These girls, however, didn't stop at just words, seeing how they were being ignored they started to get physical, knocking the book she happened to be reading from her hands and she reacted quite strongly to that so one of them grabbed the book and started to pull out pages. What happened next was unexplainable to all but the girl herself, she let out a scream of anger and from her erupted a force, maybe wind? and it sent all girls around her flying backward and to the ground. Nina-Rae looked on in abject horror at what had happened and quickly she scooped up her book, the torn pages and ran. She knew that on that day she'd used real magic, she had no idea how to explain it and of course kept this fact to herself, who would believe her anyway? They'd just tell her to stop reading so much fantasy and focus on the real world, that was at least, until her eleventh birthday when a mysterious letter arrived for her that would forever change her life.
