History/Background Story:
Rei Ashford was born in Yorkshire, England in 2013 to a wizard father and muggle mother. Her childhood was rather tumultuous, since her parents divorced when she was six, with her muggle mother returning to America while Rei remained in England with her wizard father and three younger siblings: Rachel (9), Rafael (9), and Richie (4). The siblings visit their mother every summer to live with her, maintaining their bond as they grow up.
Growing up in a household where her father carefully concealed his magical nature, Rei attended local primary schools and embraced her Christian faith through regular church attendance. Her impulsive, adventure-seeking personality and ADHD made traditional classroom settings challenging, but she thrived in social situations. At nine, she befriended a group of older children—Jay, Miranda, Cameron, Denise, and Luna—after overhearing their animated discussion about books and character dynamics at a local park. Their shared love of reading and storytelling created lasting bonds that survived even their departure to Hogwarts the year before her own acceptance.
Rei's first major magical manifestation occurred when she was ten, walking home with her twin siblings. A group of older girls, led by a neighborhood bully named Victoria, cornered Rachel and Rafael, making cruel comments about their mother leaving them. Overwhelmed by protective fury and sensory overload, Rei's magic sparked. Electricity crackled around her skin, her locs stood on end as if charged by static, and the very air shimmered with power. The bullies fled, calling her a freak, while her awed siblings watched her hair slowly float back to its natural resting place around her shoulders.
Three days later, an unnamed Hogwarts professor arrived to explain everything, revealing her father's carefully hidden magical heritage and opening the door to a world where her differences were gifts rather than oddities. Suddenly, magic was real. Suddenly, she could be a danger to herself and others, and needed to learn how to harness and control her power. Well then. To Hogwarts, it is.

Rei is rather impulsive. Some might call her free-spirited, with a... healthy appetite for adventure. Others might call her reckless and an act-first, think-later type of person. ...And they would be right, lol. She knows exactly who she is and has no plans to change that. She also has ADHD (inattentive type).
