Born on the Sixth of June, 2011 in Hedge End, England, Aislinn would have had a rather unremarkable life if it were not for her mother Saoirse. The witch had, as a young adult, found her future husband who just happened to be a muggle on a family trip from a small wizard village in Ireland to visit London. She hadn't intended on falling for a muggle but life was strange, and shortly after returning home and discovering that she was with child- Aislinns older brother, Sean, that she once again sought out Thomas and they begun their life together.

It was a bit of a shock when their child was born and Saoirse decided to tell her fiancé that she was a witch- her own mother had been muggle born, so having muggles in the family wasn't exactly a new occurrence to her, but she was still thankful that Thomas had taken it in stride. In fact, he had been overjoyed when Sean showed that he had magical abilities. Despite this, the couple never intended to have another child- but many years later Aislinn came into the world, surrounded by a loving family.

Her family life was always rather ordinary, at least as ordinary as a muggle and a witch being together could be. Her muggle father was overjoyed to find out that his daughter was a witch like her mother, after her older brother had also turned out to be a wizard. She grew up knowing about her mother and brothers magical abilities, and was homeschooled simply as a way to keep any public incidents under cover- after a few close calls with her older brothers early education, and Saoirse able to stay at home and work growing and selling some select magical herbs in her greenhouse. She always loved to hear stories about her mother and brothers magical adventures; even if those adventures were just going to school.

Having just turned four, she was trying to climb a tree to "save" the family cat (who was not actually in any danger) but slipped from a lower branch but instead of hitting the ground below she instead floated just above it for a moment before plopping down without harm, much to her fathers delight and relief.
