On October 18th, 1985, Melisande was born in Inverness, in the Scottish Highlands, to Margery Arlington and Seamon Lennox.

Margery was a muggle-born witch. She had only discovered magic when she had her first instance of magic. Her studies were made at Hogwarts where she has been a brilliant chaser and dedicated student. After finishing her studies, Margery has worked at the Ministry of Magic at the Magical Games and Sports Department.

Seamon Lennox came from a family of pure-blood wizards. Even if this was a symbol of their status, the Lennoxs couldn't care less about those old and outdated ideas of pureblood supremacy, on the contrary, they have been long term allies with muggles, all other beings and creatures. For generations the Lennox family has fought for equal rights and dignity in the lives of all magical and non-magical living creatures. Seamon has been an Activist all his life, he worked for the Ministry at the Department of Magical Law Enforcement.

Melisande believes that the right answers will be found in History, not only in the magical world history, but also in the muggle world's.

So when she heard about the vacancy for Professor of History of Magic at Hogwarts, she knew she could not ignore when fate was showing her this sign and giving her this opportunity.

First Instance of Magic: When she was seven years old, Melisande was playing at her family's house backyard with her father's favorite hat.

Madox, her tabby orange kitten has been missing all morning and she took has her own mission to find him. It was normal for the young cat to have his walks, but usually he didn't spend that much time without coming home.

Melisande was walking through the bridge that crossed the thin course of water that cut through the backyard when she heard a weak meow coming from somewhere over her head. Looking up, the young girl saw her kitten scared and trembling on top of a tree branch. Melisande tried to reach out to Madox, but she couldn't reach so high. Was at her third try that she felt something odd with her, something inside of her had awakened and without realizing how she was doing it, the Kitten was levitating closer to her outstretched hand. When she felt his fur caressing the tips of her fingers, Melisandre jumped forward and was finally able to save her best friend that now was cuddling closer to her chest.
