AMBERLEY ━━━━━━━━━━━━

OLIVIA ━━━━━━━━━━━━

MORVAY ━━━━━━━━━━━━

x	Of English and Arabic derivation, the name Amberley (AM-ber-lee) means "woodland or meadow of amber," and is inspired from the precious gem amber, an orange-colored stone made from fossilized tree resin. Amberley's parents simply liked the sound of the name.	xx	Pronounced oh-LIV-ee-uh, this name derives from the Latin word meaning "olive tree." It is considered to be an earthy baby name. With olive branches and trees representing peace and prosperity, the name is meant to bring good nature and fortune to those who bear it.	xx	This Hungarian surname, pronounced more-VAY, denotes people originating from Moravia, which now is part of the Czech Republic. Moravian territory is naturally strongly determined, which fits well for the Morvay family.	x

PRE-HOGWARTS HISTORY
━━━━━━━━━━━━━━
The Morvay family settled down in Plymouth, a port city in Devon, England. Growing up near the water was a pivotal experience for Amberley. She loved the ocean and how wild and untamed it was. While the beaches weren't as easily accessible, she enjoyed sitting down by the marina watching all of the boats go about their business. Growing up as a Half-blood proved to be an interesting experience for Amberley. Her mother, Veronica Blanchett, came from the esteemed Pureblood Blanchett family. After completing her schooling at Hogwarts as a Ravenclaw, Veronica went to London to work at the Ministry of Magic (Level 1). It was there where she met Fredek Morvay, a muggle who had been attending graduate school in London at the time. They fell madly in love to the chagrin of Veronica’s family, and after refusing to break off their engagement, she was disowned. Wanting to put down their own roots and start their own new lineage, Veronica and Fredek moved to Plymouth. Soon after, Veronica's younger brother Aster moved to the coast as well, a show of solidarity amongst the Blanchett siblings against the rest of their more traditional family. Because of all of the drama, Amberley grew up knowing little to nothing about her mother’s side of the family and the magic that was attached to it. She knew that her mother had special magical powers, but had to hide it around the rest of her extended family on her father’s side. Her mother never liked talking about her own family very much, so Amberley tried not to bring it up, despite her own curiosities. Perhaps it was the knowledge that she was so unwanted by people who barely even knew who she was, but Amberley always felt a determination to prove herself and her abilities. She worked incredibly hard in school, spent her downtime doing extracurricular activities, and learning more about the magical world despite her family's separation from it. Veronica was happy to foster Amberley's ambitions, while also being equally hesitant about her daughter being involved in the world she left behind. For a long time, the family had no idea if Amberley would show the magical side of her lineage, but eventually Amberley first experienced magic down at the pier as she was watching the boats pass by. She had been eating a sandwich when one of the pieces of lettuce fell out onto the ground. She saw a seagull nearby that was quite scraggly looking and was having difficulty walking. Amberley wanted to give the dropped piece of lettuce to the seagull but another one had swooped down and was eyeing it now. Fearful that the other seagull would get to the lettuce before the injured one, she reached out to grab it but instead of actually touching it, the lettuce swooped through the air landing right in front of the injured gull.

Once receiving her Hogwarts letter, Amberley was excited to attend Hogwarts, especially knowing that her cousin Maeve would be there as well. As someone who tried to take up as little space as possible within the world while also wanting to make a name for herself, it would be helpful to have a friendly face around while Amberley adjusted to being at school. She was excited to begin her journey, though, and figure out what she was meant to do in the world.
