Marla Weasley

Backstory

I was born on October 19, a year not far from the current one, from a pureblood witch. I was raised, as far as possible, only by my mother and my maternal family. My birth took place at the same time as the hatching of a dragon egg, unique of its kind, which my family had reserved for me as, by tradition, every component of our dynasty must possess such a creature (almost all of us are or end up being dragonologists). During the time Voldemort was on the loose, my family became his targets because, even if we were purebloods, we housed and lent a hand to all the half-bloods who needed it. Our volunteer work continued until the Death Eaters entered our mansion and killed a good part of the volunteers and innocent people. With only a few left, each survivor decided to escape to soften the tracks and be able to live in peace; My mother and I were welcomed by the Weasleys - close friends of the family for decades - and we received help from Dumbledore himself. My family was known for their immense non-financial contributions to Hogwarts, so it was no surprise to see so many people rushing to our aid. To avoid curiosity and favoritism towards me, we ended up being placed with the Weasleys, and I have been raised with them ever since.
