Lear's Army

Andrew Jones is a Pureblooded child who lives in a foster home of muggles, the Harrington family, with no news of who his parents were. The family he grew up with are a family of muggles who are considered very close friends of Andrew's Blood-Related family.

While it's true usually you would have sent your child into a foster magical family, Andrew's case is a bit different. His Father was very cautious about who he trusts due to his line of work, while Mr. Harrington is a squib whom Andrew's father knows and trusts closely. Mr. Jones didn't want just any Family to look after his son but one he knows has no direct connection to his life or work in the hope that Andrew can be raised normally with a loving family; to make sure Andrew would stay out of his blood-related family's business. Ever since he was left in the care of The Harringtons, the parents have been reported missing on official ministry business and presumed dead.

Therese grew up surrounded by magic. She was the youngest of three, and the only daughter. However, her birth was also unexpected as the youngest of her two older brothers was just 2 years shy of being able to attend Hogwarts by the time that her parents knew about her. Her family wasn't exactly wealthy, but they had enough to live comfortably and still be able to let the children have their own things.

Unfortunately, due to the great difference in age, Therese never really got close to either of her brothers. This was something that always bothered her. They treat her like she's made of glass but don't even know what her favorite color or candy was. It wasn't for lack of trying on her part - or rather, her mother's part. After all, there was nearly 10 years difference between her and the younger Williamson brother...but she came to terms with the fact that she probably would never get to know either of them until she grew older.

It doesn't stop the resentment from brewing, though. She grew up seeing them practice and desperately wanted to try too...but nothing ever came from her attempts to use either brother's and nor those of her parents - something that didn't surprise any of them besides her.

That was her life, really...until she got the letter. Of course, she knew that she would get one simply because of the bouts of accidental magic that she had heard about whilst growing up - but knowing you'd receive one, and actually receiving the letter were two completely different things.

As the family was used to this by now, the shopping trip was quite uneventful - aside from getting her wand, at least. She had, of course, wanted a pet...but her parents insisted that she wait to purchase one until at least her third year. It wasn't something that she liked, but it was something that she could deal with.

Fast-forward to September 1, she gets sorted into Gryffindor.

Extra Info: she's learning to channel her disruptive emotions into more palatable pursuits like sports and now -- this one. lucky struggles with much but not when it comes to adventure. it sounds fun to be a part of lear's army. and that's the most important thing to her.

the half-blood daughter of a wizarding musician and his muggle wife, lucky was born with all the wonder of the wizarding world and all the reality of the muggle world. it was an idealistic, simple childhood until her mother passed on. then things changed. lucky had to learn to grow up fast -- and take care of herself even faster. she's a fiercely independent kind of loner who is learning how to rely on someone other than herself.
