Princeton Montgomery

Backstory

Prince was born in New Jersey to parents, Levi and Aaliyah Montgomery. His parents met whilst attending Ilvermorny school and they were both in Pukwudgie house.

Just before Prince got to Hogwarts, Levi Montgomery, his father, had to leave the American office for Aurors and move to the British office. His boss had decided that it was a good move for the family to be based in the UK as his assignments would be largely based there from then on. Although Prince was going to go to Ilvermorny, this move, of course, meant that it would be more convenient for Prince to go to Hogwarts so that he was close to his immediate family if anything were to go wrong. When he got to Hogwarts, Prince was sorted into Hufflepuff. It was not surprising at all to him as he was known for being extremely loving and kind.

Along with his parents, Prince also has two younger sisters, Ashleigh and Nia. They are not quite of age to attend Hogwarts, only being 8 and 10 years old respectively, but Prince always tells them about the magical time he is expecting to have there. Prince and his family are extremely close, his parents always used to read to him and his siblings every night before they went to bed, teaching them about magic, muggles, and the world. Even though the Montgomery family are purebloods, they’ve never been the elitist type. They have always just wanted to use their power for good.

Before going to school, Prince had many hobbies including art, singing, and sprinting, but one of his most prominent ones was flying. He was shown how to ride a broom by his father when he was 9 years old and he has been enamoured with the sport ever since.

Prince’s first instance of accidental magic was when he was 7 years old. As a pureblood, he knew about magic beforehand and was expecting this day to come. The instance was back at his home. His parents were cooking their usual Sunday meal when his father dropped the knife he was using to chop the vegetables and it was headed straight towards his mother’s foot. Prince obviously feared for his mother and he managed to stop the knife from falling, inches away from his mother’s foot. This instance has stuck with Prince and he cannot help but think how close the knife was from serious harm. He would perhaps go as far as to say it fuelled his desire to become a healer when he is older.
