My name is Alyeska Rose, my mother is a muggle and my father is a wizard, I of course didn't know this until I was 9 years old because I had always just lived with my mother. I have naturally long blonde hair, but I enjoy dyeing my hair. often to see how I would look with different colors. I am shy when I first meet people but after that I am very energetic, talkative and childish. When I was 9 I visited my father for the first time in since I was 4, my mother decided it was time for me to see him again. I had to take a plane to Edinburgh in order to see him and I was supposed to stay there for a week. I didn't remember much about him other then what I learned in the phone calls we'd have every few months. My mother never did explain why she made him leave, she just told me it was for my own good and I would understand with time. He picked me up from the airport and at first I felt uncomfortable, as I barely knew him, but I soon adjusted. Two days after the start of my visit is when I learned that he was a wizard, I had noticed strange things, but just thought they had a reasonable explanation, until I saw the dishes washing themselves when he was in a completely different room. I decided to go ask him about it and he explained that he was a wizard and he showed me several books that explained the history of magic. It was during this visit that my magic first surfaced, me and my father had gotten in an argument over whether or not I could do something and I got mad and without realizing I somehow, without even touching it, picked up a glass vase and threw it up against the wall. The day after that happened, my father sent me home early, with a letter for my mother, and I have not seen or heard from him since. My mother says that when they were married my father always said that he didn't want his kids to end up magic like him, I think after he found out I was magic he may have dropped contact because he doesn't want his only child to be magic. Over the past year and a half since then, me and my mother have made an effort to control me accidentally using magic and the last time that it happened was 6 months ago, when I dropped a book and as I was reaching to pick it up, it magically got pulled into my hand. A few days after I turned 11, I got my Hogwarts letter, I was out with some friends and my mother called me and told me that I had gotten a letter in the mail that I needed to make sure to open when I got home, and she wouldn't tell me who it was from.
