Create your own history

It's the time to wake up and get creative in History of Magic ^^

I want you all to create your own history. Make up a character and tell me everything about his life, where and when he was born, how his childhood was, etc. Also, you need to tell me why this person would have been important to history. Did he or she invent a spell, an object? Or was it simply something she or he did that helped the world go forward?

This character can be good or evil, it's up to you, though I don't want a second Dark Lord.

And careful, this is not a fanfiction. If I see one, I will simply ignore it and it won't be marked! I want it written like a biography, as if you had done a research on that person.

I want at least 300 words, and maximum 1500.

Also, be careful with your spelling and grammar, I will take out up to 10 points if there are too many. I know making mistakes is normal, I make some too, but if there are really too many, like more than 20, I will begin to take out points. And that also mean writing full words, no computer talk.


You can have up to 45 points for the text.



Bonus: If you post a picture of that character, which can be an actor you want to use as her role model (though I don't want any HP actors) or a fanart, it'll give you 5 points.


Points available: 50

*note: I don't care much for grammar, just try and make sure there is not too much please! I don't take off for it- violetriddle

Emily was a great person. She had blond hair and brown eyes. Emily had invented a new spell. Livento. It is used to speed things up.
Emily was born in Boston, Massachusetts. Her childhood was simple. She didn't find out that she was a witch until she was five. The way she found out was like this.

Little five year old Emily sat in her kindergarten chair in Math Class. She was super bored and decided to stare at the clock. First, she began to float. Then, the clock spun around really fast. When the clock was done turning, it reavealed to be time for recess!
When Emily got home, she told her parents everything. Then, her parents told her everything.

That is how Emily found out she was a witch. After that, she began to wonder how she was a witch. She had dreams about a certain train going to a certain school. That school was gaurded by a dark lake. When she turned eleven, she found out what those dreams meant.

It was Emily's eleventh birthday. June 1. Noone came to her party, so when she heard a squeak outside her door, she thought it was a prank. However, she felt curious, so she opened up the door and saw a cute, little, adorable, snowy owl. The owl was holding a letter in it's beak. Knowing that it was her job to get the mail, she took the letter out and closed the door. You know how the rest goes on. She reads the letter. Her parents tell her about their beloved school. About a month later she goes there. And she lives happily ever after.
Yes, she did live happily ever after. She married the boy of her dreams, Harry Potter. And she came up with that useful spell that she had accidently used in kindergarten. Livento.

Here is a picture of this character.(It is actually Jamie Lynn Spears. But let's pretend.)

Kelpas M. Lepers (1423-1480)
Kelpas M (Markies) Lepers was a very selfish man. Lepers always tried to come up with ways to make himself famous. Sometimes he killed others and took their credit for what they have done. He also would steal from other just to sell so that he could pay his rent. Once Lepers went too far and was eaten by a three headed dog. Lepers was eaten by the dog because he tried to steal a monument from a museum.

Lepers is most famous for his betrayal to the witches and wizardry community. Lepers was the first wizard ever to tell muggles that magical folk do exist. After the muggles found out they began burning any one they thought was a witch, wizard or had any forms of magical or sub-human qualities.

When Lepers was about ten years old he would always be found outside with his dad helping the poor. Lepers father thought that everyone should have a second chance. When Lepers became fifteen, his Uncle Simon Flabbers came to town and had changed Lepers from the nice little boy he as to a man who was always trying to find wealth.

Lepers was always interested in magical creatures and would always go outside trying to discover new animals. Lepers always would come running out of the woods yelling that he found a new creature only to discover that it had already been named.
One day Lepers got lucky and ran into an undiscovered creature that he named the Leperus that was wiped out because of over hunting. Lepers was very sad that he couldn’t have helped these creatures.

Despite all of the bad things he did he was a nice man caught up on trying to become famous. He would sometimes stop what he was doing to help the poor just like his father did. He would also use the money he gained from stealing to give to those in need. If Lepers would have never meet his uncle he would have been a different person.

Name: Lucille Arielle Troughbrough
Birth: 6th June 1866
Death: 7th January 1886 (age 19)


I would like to take you back many years to when the Troughbrough family was one of the well known families of England. They were a little better in finances than the average family, yet still poor to the modern day standards.

Lucille, or Lucy, was born to Margarita and George Troughbrough on the early hours of the 6th June 1866. Her birth was marked with sadness and joy as it was mealy minutes after the death of her mothers sister, Gabrielle. It was said that “The lights shone with a brightness unknown to man” the minute Lucy came into the world. Unbeknown to the family, Lucy’s birth held more than the typical muggle celebration

Lucy was pronounced completely blind at aged only 3 months, yet her parents began to notice magical occurrences surrounding her. By the age of only 4, Lucy was able to ‘heal’ the sick by a simple touch. Through her blindness, she was also able to ‘see’ future events take place, something which terrified her parents, therefore ‘forcing’ them to keep her away from the public eye as much as humanly possible. Unfortunately, this made Lucy become very withdrawn, her anger often causing terrifying occurrences around their town. Deaths began to occur to those who bad mouthed the young girl. Her parents soon became a target of rage from the town, threats began to pour in of witchcraft forcing the family to move north.

When Lucy turned 11, it was noted in the history books that their family was approached by an ‘old man with a excessively long silver beard’. This man claimed to be a descendant of a most powerful wizard and wished to take Lucy under his wing and teach her to control her magic. After many meetings, Lucy’s parents agreed to the proposition. Little did they know that it was to be the last time they saw their daughter.

Only 5 months later Lucy was stricken down with an unknown disease. Her temperature rose to deathly heights as she began to ‘see’ her parents decent. At the very same time the outbreak of storms ran through the land, mirroring Lucy’s strange illness. It was thought by the old wizard that Lucy’s power was beyond any known to wizardkind. A week later, the deaths of her parents reached the wizards ears, a sudden death caused by a high fever and unknown illnesses.

When Lucy turned 12, she began schooling at a private school of magic. One incident in the history books showed a school bully taunting Lucy. The next day he was found dead, his eyes wide in fear. As she grew older, the wizard moved her to many different places, never letting her out of his sight, though wherever they went, the storms and deaths followed.

At 16, Lucy fell in love with a muggle man named Christopher. The old wizard had heard of his bad past and forbid Lucy to ever see the boy. A week after her 17th birthday, she fell into a deep, feverish sleep, awaking only minutes after the old wizard was found dead in the cow field, his eyes wide in fear.

Lucy and Christopher ran away, the authorities attempting to track them down, though it is believed that Lucy had put a strong shield around them to hide them. A few months before her 19th birthday, Lucy fell pregnant. Christopher did not take the news well and ran away, leaving Lucy alone, her defenses down. A week after giving birth to a young daughter, Abigail, Christopher visited, yet after a huge argument he once again fled. Not long after, a huge storm hit and Christopher was found dead. The authorities could still not track Lucy down, but by this time the beginnings of the ministry of magic had been set up.
In December 1885, Lucy was taken to the newly built Azkaban, her daughter taken from her and placed in the care of a wizarding family with the surname of Weasley. Storms raged throughout the land for a whole month until suddenly stopping on the 7th January 1886, the day that Lucy was found dead in her cell.

I'm new to this, so I'm sorry if I mess up!

Name: Leonhard von Bismarck
Immortal Status: Werewolf
Date of Birth: 21st June 1754
Date of Death: 19th December 1807

Leonhard was born into a werewolf family in what is now Denmark, at a time when werewolves lived separate from humans and shunned all society. His father, Byron von Bismarck, was the beta wolf in a fierce rebel pack centered around a large mountainous region in the north of the country. When Leonhard was fourteen, Byron was murdered in a territorial dispute, which left Leonhard to roam the wilds of Denmark alone. After nine years, Leonhard had constructed a pack of his own and, fuelled by starvation and rage, attacked a human settlement. Since the villagers were not used to werewolves, many were slaughtered and those that fled were quickly hunted down. The immortals took control of the settlement, named von Bismarck as the leader and gathered other lone werewolves from the mountains to build a fifty-strong pack. They gave themselves the title of the Blood Fifty, recognising not only their lust for human flesh but also their support for pure-blood wizards and werewolves. Hel, a female werewolf from the forests to the North of the country, appointed herself the beta leader and became von Bismarck's mate. She later helped him to gain control of large expanses of countryside, but was captured and killed by the few surviving mortal hunters in the spring of 1777, leaving behind her only son, Vladimir. Leonhard rose to power in Denmark by means of subterfuge, mass exile of human species and assasination of his political rivals, and the first law passed under his regime was one which named werewolves as a "superior race" that has complete control over other "subordinate races", e.g. humans. This was met by fierce disapproval by the rest of Europe, and the ensuing mobs - now collectively known as the Oak Moon Uprisings - resulted in the death of Leonhard in 1807, aged 54. He is an ancestor of Fenrir Greyback.

Little is known about Bethany Windrop except that she was the owner of a little café called “The Quill” that was eventually closed due to a little accident involving a shrinking potion that was spilled in a private area. (hehe) However, recent historians show that she, in fact was a major part of history and should be considered the most famous witch of all. Almost as famous as The Boy Who Lived.

Bethany Windrop was born on July 8, 1956 in a small town not even worth mentioning as it's so tiny, many people blink and miss it. She is the youngest of 3 siblings, 1 sister, 2 brothers. All her older brothers and sister was high in the Minister of Magic, yet her application was rejected three times. Although she was very clever and hard working, she had horrible interviewing skill (studdering and talking about weird subjects too much), and this was her downfall.

She entered Hogwarts as a Hufflepuff and was immediately a disgrace to the family as until her everybody in the family was a pure Ravenclaw. Why does she deserve to be famous then might you ask? For several reasons. After Bethany lost her cafe, she worked for a summer at the the Ministry of Magic with connections from her older siblings. She worked as a file clerk in the Department of Mysteries herself! Her job was to cast a spell on every object on the floor to protect it from harm. However she often grew lazy and forgot to. How is this relevent? If she had cast the spell as often as she should have, Harry and his friends in OoP would not have had the chance to escape by breaking all the prophecy orbs. Yet nobody knows that it was because of Bethany Windrop.

Emilia Belle was born July 3rd 1986 in a small seaside town on the East Coast.

Her first name suits her well. Meaning “Rival” she’s not a lady to let anyone usurp her or resist a challenge. To her schoolmates in her regular high school she’s best known for her academic skills and active debate member.

After school however, she’s known to be a regular at an abandoned house where she meets a small group of witches to practice their skills. While being named Rival, in magic circles, she’s more of a team player lending her skills to help those in need & punish those who use magic for evil purposes.

Emilia first knew she was different as a kid when she would tell people where to find the treasured items they lost…often without them saying what they were looking for. Her adoptive parents insisted that she stop playing those games because it would be a bad reflection on her growing up, so Emilia kept her gifts hidden until she got a letter from a relative of her birth father.

Because she is half mortal it took her a long time to learn magic. She has no real strong points except for spell casting & clairvoyance, which she got from her mother. Though her mother was human, one of her ancestors was a full wizard that passed down magic genes in the family of which she inherited her powers to see the future. Emilia was given up for adoption to escape the pressures of being from a magic family, especially since she was only half blood.

Being proud of her roots, she authors spells & uses her psychic abilities to thwart evil magic possessor being they hurt the town she protects. Emilia is also very maternal, so she mentors the younger witches & helps them to gain confidence in their powers & teaches them the art of writing spells, which is no game..

NAME: Serpentia Slytherin
BORN: October 31st 1877
DIED: April 1st 1906
RACE: Pureblood witch

Serpentia Slytherin was born on October 31st 1877. She was the only Granddaughter of Salazar Slytherin. She was accepted into Hogwart's school of witchcraft and wizardry following her 11th birthday. She was sorted into Slytherin house. She was an excellent student. Her knowledge in her studies was well more advanced than any other student her age. She was able to make herself into an animagus in her 3rd year of school. Serpantia was not like the other Slytherins in her family. They were all very prejaduced against half bloods and muggleborns, but Serpantia was not. She eventually fell in love with a Gryffindor boy in her 6th year at Hogwarts. His name was Seth Michael Erikson. He was a muggleborn wizard who excelled in his studies like Serpentia.

When Serpentia told her family about her love they became furious. They forbid her from loving him and almost pulled her out of Hogwart's. She decided that she should not have anything to do with Seth anymore although it broke her heart in two. Her magical abilities became much less wonderful after she cut Seth out of her life. She also became withdrawn and very unfriendly twards others.

After leaving Hogwarts she met and married a pureblood wizard by the name of Marvolo Gaunt. She had a son Morphin and a daughter Merope. She was never happy to be with Marvolo but her family approved of him as he was also a decendant of Salazar Slytherin.

At the age of 28 Serpantia left her family and went in search of Seth. She knew he was the only one who could make her happy. She found him and the two of them lived happily for almost a year. One cold April night there was a knock at the door. Seth opened it and Marvolo was standing there with his wand pointed at him. Marvolo killed Seth instantly with the Avada Kedavra curse. He then entered the house and gave Serpentia a choice. Either come home with him and the children or die. She chose death as she knew she would never again be happy without her true love. Marvolo killed her on April 1st, 1906. She was only 28 years old.

Name: Mila Sanders
Death: unknown


Mila Sanders was born on June 18th 1961. She was not widely known, but was known none the less for facing off against the Dark Lord and having vanished mysteriously. She was muggle born and a close friend to Lily Evans in their years at Hogwarts. On their seventh year during Christmas Break, Mila's parents were killed and right in front of her. She had no idea why the deatheaters would come after her house, but learned that both her parents had been in a league with Lord Voldemort and refused to hand over Mila, thus suffering the consequences.

This broke Mila's heart, but she kept her head high. Lily was always there to comfort and when they finally graduated from Hogwarts, they kept in touch. On July 31st she received word from James and Lily that they had a gorgeous baby boy who they named Harry. Mila was over in a heartbeat and couldn't help but stare at the beautfiful boy. He was both a mixture of Lily and James.


A year later around the birhtday of Lily and James' sone, Mila received a phonecall. It was strange, but she could definatly hear something on the other end. It kept happening and she wondered what was going on. She informed Lily who told her it must have been some teenagers prank calling her. Mila wouldn't believe it and decided to take matters into her own hands. The next night she waited by the phone and answered it the moment it shrilled. Except this time it wasn't anyone rasping on the other end. It was a man's voice and it had sounded really unnatural.


It told her to come by the Alley in half hour's time and grabbing her wand, Mila complied. What she wasn't in for was to see the face of the Dark Lord. Since then no one had seen her since, but a note. A note that read: LP, JP, HP- October 31

Tatiana Marquez



Born: 1996
Death: Unknown

Tatiana Marquez was the middle child of Andre and Isabella Marquez, both Death Eaters since their seventh year at Hogwarts. Toby and Natalie, who followed the path their parents had paved for them, also becoming Death Eaters, Tatiana, Tanya and Nick. All of the Marquez’s were in Slytherin except for Tatiana, a Ravenclaw.

Little is known about the childhood of Tatiana, but what isn’t known can be assumed. Ministry records tell of many arrests of the parents, all but the last the couple escaped imprisonment. This means that the two couldn’t have been around much for their children, so the kids must’ve grown up fast. Those that knew her say that Tatiana had always been different from her family. Some say they even guessed that she would disappear, for disappear she did. Everyone expected great things from the girl…and all were disappointed. After graduation most graduates celebrated with family and in the midst of the crowd Tatiana could’ve easily escaped the castle and Apparated elsewhere. Why she did this isn’t much of a mystery. She didn’t want the life she would’ve had had she stayed. They life of a Death Eater. Maybe she started over. Or maybe her escape had been planned and the girl had been an actress, fooling everyone into believing her to be different, and she had joined the Death Eaters of her own free will. But whether Tatiana meant to or not, her disappearing act led to the imprisonment of her parents and eldest sibling. They had gone searching for her and had been captured and immediately sent to Azkaban, where death quickly came upon Andre and Isabella. This caused great joy in our community for they had tortured and killed many innocent witches, wizards and Muggles. And as far as we know this is the end of Miss Marquez’s story…or is it?

Miyazaki Naoki
Years: Unknown

This man is actually only known through legend. This picture is simply a conjecture of what the man himself would look like, taken from the descriptions given through ancient texts that describe the beginnings of a Wizarding World in Japan. He was the one who taught the Japanese about the balance between light and dark. Although he is rumored to have died young, his work in emphasizing the need for a balance between the Light magicks and the Dark magicks led Japan to be the country with the least number of Dark Lords.

He was rumored to have multiple personality syndrome, one personality being dark, one being light, and one, the dominant one, being a mixture of both, the paradigm of a normal wizard, except for the small fact that he was more powerful than most the wizards. His power level would be approximately equal to the power that Albus Dumbledore holds, but with his three personalities, he was a bit more volatile. These three personalities helped demonstrate to the Japanese wizards exactly what was in store if they did not respect the balance between light and dark. However, how could such a person come into being?

Naoki was born in the feudal ages of Japan, where demons ran amuck and muggles and wizards lived side by side. He discovered his wizarding powers early, but the discord within his mind created the three different personalities. For a while, when his dark personality took over, he gathered the demons under his will and plundered Japan, but then, his light personality took over and he started to put things back to rights. However, it never finished its job, as the dominant personality took over its body again. It is this personality that eventually taught Japan the dangers of tipping the balance, as the light personality had almost decimated the population of demons in Japan, which were used to actually create a balance between humans and creatures.

Lynn Grant is widely known for her betrayal and mysterious disappearance during the aftermath of the final battle. Many people still don’t know which side she was on, or which side eventually killed her in the aftermath. However there is quite a bit we do know about her.

Lynn Andrea Grant was born on the 14th of February to two highly known pureblooded parents, Sarah and Andrew Grant. She grew up in the London area happily as an only child. Her parents often left her alone with the nanny and other hired staff, while they left to do business. She never actually found out what that business was, but had many theories. She had no friends as a child, but didn’t feel she needed them. She was a natural born loner.

She entered Hogwarts in the year of 1989, and was sorted into Gryffindor. Which at first disappointed her parents, who were both Ravenclaws, however she excelled in Gryffindor doing well. Which made her parents proud and happy to see their daughter doing so well. Still, she stayed a loner not making any friends. Many people thought it odd, but she didn’t want any so stayed her distance.

In her 4th year she suffered a great loss. Both her parents were killed, and no one to this day knows who did it. She had a few ideas and that is what drove her to join the D.A. in her 6th year. She thought Voldemort had killed her parents and intended to help as much as she could. Which is what lead her to join the Order of Phoenix at the age of 18. And finally began to make friends.

While in the Order she was assigned to spy of Voldemort. Of coarse Voldemort and the Death Eaters thought she was a spy for them and not against them. She did her job well for a while, however after a while the dark side seemed to draw her. For a long while she was against the Order and for Voldemort, considering herself a death eater.

Then came the Final Battle, she started the fight against the Order. However as the fighting progressed she started fighting both Order members and Death Eaters. Which confused and angered both of the sides. When the battle was over, she had survived. Others who survived, from both sides, sent her owls threatening to take her life.

On her 21st birthday she was headed off to her birthday party only a couple blocks away. She decided to walk and never made it to the party. A few hours later, friends from the party found her dead in an alley only a block away from where the party was being held. There was no signs of who did it, but they knew she was killed from the killing curse.

Wilhelmina Kent was born Wilhelmina Audrey Fringe on a sunny Tuesday on the southern end of Wiltshire on September 28th, 1804 to two Wizarding parents. An only child, her parents knew, from an early age, that she would go on to do great things. She displayed a keen ambition, and from as early as the age of six, had already worked out her life plan eighteen times.

By the time Wilhelmina was eleven, however, she had worked over her life plan for the last time, and had settled on becoming a politician. She felt that this was a great use of her many talents – her exemplary organisational skills, her quick mind, and her diplomatic demeanour – and so set out to make her dream a reality.

Her seven hears at Hogwarts were thus spent with the keenest attention to lessons. People who had known her in school would say that she spent her years in study, at the cost of a social life, but Wilhelmina was one-minded (she was known as a Slytherin with Ravenclaw tendencies). In her latter years Wilhelmina was known to say that she “had time for all that nonsense later on.”

In her fifth year she was named Slytherin Prefect, which came as no surprise to anyone. Her exemplary grades and no-nonsense manner made her ideal for the position. Two years later she was named Head Girl.

She was the only one in her class to get eleven Outstandings on her NEWTs, and was accepted straight into a Ministry position upon her graduation in 1822.

It did not take the Ministry of Magic very long to recognise that Wilhelmina was a particularly promising young star, despite current gender inequality at the time. She quickly left her desk job in the lower levels, and soon was integrated into the higher rungs of Ministry Hierarchy – specifically the Department of Magical Law Enforcement, where she worked under the Head (a man called Jupiter Humphreys) as his Senior Secretary in 1825, at the young age of twenty.

Wilhelmina held this position for ten years, before she advanced once more. In the decade it took for her to advance, many things happened in Wilhelmina’s life. She married Rupert Kent in 1827, a childhood friend from her days in Wiltshire. Together they had six children over the next nine years, of which one died from a severe case of Dragon Pox in 1830.

In 1835 a vacancy became open for Undersecretary to the Minister of Magic – and Wilhelmina applied. Gender inequality was beginning to decline at this time, as women protested their rights in the Wizarding World. Wilhelmina, a believer in equal rights between genders (not to mention races and blood status), rallied support behind her as she slowly, but surely, beat out the others in the run for the job, largely due to her superior knowledge and experience.

On June 30th Wilhelmina received an owl telling her that she had gotten the job as Undersecretary to the Minister for Magic – the first woman to hold the position. She remained in this job for the rest of her days in the Ministry, retaining the job when Faris Spavin took the post in 1865.

Wilhelmina died at the ripe old age of 122 in 1926.
