character history
Born in Allisyn was the first child born to Gregory and Rowena, they still lived in Zambia at this time with her father working for the magical government during this time. While her father was away at work, her mother stayed home to care for her along with their maid who looked after their house. When she was old enough she learned that their maid was, in fact, a squib and she grew close to the woman and this made Allisyn accepting of everyone. She was joined soon enough by her younger sister, Tamara and their brother Benedict.


Allisyn was homeschooled and their family lived in a vast house that Gregory had inherited when his parents had died from Pneumonia when he had been a teenager. One night when Allisyn was eight, Gregory had come home late from work and without her parents knowing, Allisyn had stayed up past her bedtime. Gregory had come home and unknown to him, he had been followed home by some people who worked for the minister’s opposition. They had attempted to hex him from behind but had missed. He had managed to escape and make his way inside the house and quickly made sure his whole family was safe. Allisyn had seen his attack from her bedroom window. It had scared her from that moment on.


Wanting his family to be safe, Gregory and Rowena immigrated their family to the UK, near Coventry. There, Allisyn and her siblings grew up and attended Peverell’s academy in London, which their father would floo them to each day. Around the age of 10, Allisyn started to experience nightmares and she finally decided to tell her parents about what she had seen when her father had been attacked.


She received her letter to Hogwarts and her therapy ceased. She was excited but also nervous about it because she still considered herself to be relatively new in England but she put on a brave face and she went off to Hogwarts. During the sorting ceremony, she was sorted in Huffepuff. She wasn’t sure at first that she belonged in that house. She had read up about the school houses before she had come to the school and had found herself more aligned with Ravenclaw. However, she had tried to speak to Professor Sprout about it, given she was the head of the badgers but she had simply said, the word of the hat was final.


Allisyn tried to make the best of it from then on and tried to find her place there. She started to make friends, and some close friends too, including a wizard in her year, named Derrick, he became her best friend. Many assumed they would be together eventually. They both laughed it off even when she became a house prefect and many assumed they would sneak him into the prefects' bathroom for some kind of rendezvous. It never eventuated.


Instead, Allisyn started to fall for Derrick’s older brother Conrad. But she knew of what problems this would present for and Derrick so she tried to let go of the feelings she had for his brother. Upon graduation, Allisyn went on to study Arithmancy at Bangor University.


A few months after starting there, she and Conrad slept together. This eventually led to them dating after she decided to bite the bullet and put feelings ahead of her friendship with Derrick. Conrad had made his name playing with the Montrose Magpies and Allisyn loved to watch him play. A few months after they got together, she found herself pregnant. She had wanted children with Conrad, just not so soon before she finished her degree.


They welcomed their daughter, Ellen which they named after Conrad’s grandmother. When  their baby girl turned one, Conrad proposed and they married soon after. The two of them went on to welcome two more children into their lives.


Allisyn went to Oxford to earn her teaching degree. She knew she could do the same at Lufkin or Bangor but wanted a muggle university because she knew she wanted to teach magical children regardless of blood status.


Everything was going well for the family until five years ago when Gregory fell sick and lost his battle with early onset dimentia. While Allisyn was mourning the death of her father, she found evidence that Conrad had cheated on her and had been sleeping with another quidditch player. She decided to retaliate and committed adultery herself with a wizard she had gone to Bangor with.


When their divorce was finalised just under five years ago, Allisyn received good news that she had been made principal of Peverell’s Children Academy. This is a job she enjoys to this day.

family history
Gregory was born in Southampton, England to an English father and a Dutch mother. He was the youngest in his family of four boys. His parents stayed as much as possible to stay out of the magical world, to the point they had very muggle jobs of them both being bakers. Their aversion to the magical world lasted until their sons started going to Hogwarts but they still tried to raise their sons with having a balanced view of the world.



Gregory trained to play the flute and Cello when he was a child but he soon gave it up when he started at Hogwarts. Upon arriving at the school he was sorted into Slytherin, this had come as a surprise to him. The thought it was the least likely of his siblings to end up there. However, he attempted to make the best of the situation. He went on to play Quidditch for the team and captained the team in his final year. Upon graduating, Gregory went to play for the Arrows before he retired and started working for the Ministry in the sports department where he started in the games department. He soon transferred tot he department for international cooperation and travelled with the English delegate to Zambia where he met Rowena.



Rowena Kulasu was the only daughter born to her parents in Lusaka, Zambia. They had two sons after her. Rowena, worked on her parent's farm looking after both muggle and magical animals with having a particular fondness for horses. She learned to ride when she was six or seven and continued when she went to Uagadou.There she went to thrive in subjects such as Magical creatures and Astronomy. She was popular during her days at school and in her final year, she was the head girl at the school.



When Rowena Graduated, she started to work in the ministry but she had a desire to work more with animals than with paperwork. After she met Gregory and they eventually got married, she left the ministry and started to train as a magic zoologist and continued the work when they moved to the UK.

Pending!


Looks like her university years are incorrect! She started Hogwarts in 1987. So she wouldn’t have graduated until 1994, so she wouldn’t have been able to start Bangor in 1988. Those just need adjusted!

You put Prefect under Accomplishments! Can you just move that up to Achievements! Accomplishments are post-Hogwarts accomplishments.

Still says ‘Incomplete’ under Status of Application!

That’s all! :)
