Character Backstory:
Personality:Mollie's quiet confidence often gets mistaken for shyness, but in reality she's just calculating. She spends her time reading, constantly eager to learn new things. Back at home, she kept a small circle of close friends, always choosing them over big social circles. She enjoys spending time with her family, especially her little sisters, Freya, who is seven, and Corrine, who is four. Mollie and Freya loved singing and dancing together, often coming up with their own songs to be performed in front of their family during family gatherings. When Mollie wasn't dancing around with Freya, she would be coloring with Corrine. Corrine and Mollie's artwork was plastered in places around the house. During the days with her father, Mollie played guitar, learning new songs and interesting chord progressions. When she spent time with her mom, they were always baking sweet treats. Mollie always enjoyed the time she spent with her family.

Backstory: Mollie was born in Goteborg, Sweden, to Isabelle Ekstrom and Theodore Henry. Her family moved to London, England when she was just three years old. Mollie's family moved to England because they wanted Mollie to attend Hogwarts, and have more opportunities. While in London, Mollie's parents had two more children; Freya and Corrine. Mollie was always close to her family, even distant relatives back home in Sweden. Even though Mollie desperately missed Sweden, she began to fall in love with the beauty of London.
Mollie had always loved singing and dancing, and practically all of the creative arts. Mollie started to dance when she was four years old, and had loved it ever since. Along with all of Mollie's dancing, she enjoyed singing as well. Her parents had put her in voice lessons when she was eight, and Mollie had begun singing in her church's choir.
Often, Mollie missed her friends in Sweden, but her parents encouraged her to send letters to them. Mollie had been writing to one of her friends for three years, learning new things about each other that they didn't know before. All of her life, Mollie's parents informed her of how they went to Hogwarts and studied magic as well. They told her how she would experience magic one day, and Mollie was always eager for that moment to come.

First Instance of Magic: While Molly, age nine, was getting errands done for her mom one day in a local corner shop, she was deciding between two kinds of biscuits when suddenly one of the boxes began floating off the shelf. In fact, it was the biscuit that Molly was leaning more towards. She watched as it hovered over her shopping basket, and fell in with a thud. A few heads turned, and Molly just smiled at them, hoping they hadn't noticed the levitating box of biscuits. She gave the shopkeeper two pounds for the biscuits and ran home, eager to tell her parents. When she told her parents about the floating biscuits, they were very excited for they young daughter, because they knew she would find happiness in her magical abilities and her time at Hogwarts.
