The Life Of Albus Dumbledore
Albus Percival Wulfric Brian Dumbledore was a Member of the Order of Merlin, Grand Sorcerer, former Chief Warlock of the Wizengamot, Transfiguration Professor and Headmaster of Hogwarts School of Witchcraft and Wizardry. Some would argue he was the most powerful, fantastic wizard of his time, some might even say the world. Dumbledore defeated the notorious Grindelwald in a duel, discovered the twelve uses of dragon blood, and worked with Nicolas Flamel himself with Alchemy and also founded the first and second Order of the Phoenix. Dumbledore also was the only wizard feared by He Who Must Not Be Named and the master of the Elder Wand from 1945 to 1997. Dumbledore was truly one of the greatest wizards ever to live, I have decided to write his life in an unbiased biography in honour of him.

Early Life
Albus Percival Wulfric Brian Dumbledore was born in the Summer of 1881, in the small wizarding village of Mould-on-the-Wold, England. His mother; Kendra Dumbledore was a Muggle-Born wizard who was born in 1851, soon dying in 1899. Kendra often tried to build a strong relationship with Albus, but it was usually interrupted by other matters in the family. Albus' father, Percival Dumbledore, was born a pure-blood Muggle hater, who attacked innocent Muggles after they attacked his daughter. Dumbledore's sister, Ariana Dumbledore was born in 1885 four years after Albus. When she was only six, Ariana had accidentally released magic in front of several Muggle boys, the boys were scared of what she had done and demanded her to do it again, when she said she couldn't, they attacked her. Later, Percival, Albus' father attacked those boys in turn, and was sent to Azkaban for the rest of his life. These events emotionally scarred Ariana for a very long time. Aberforth, the middle child to the Dumbledores, had quite the different personality from Albus and was Ariana's favourite brother.
Ariana, sadly could not use her magic anymore after the incident with the Muggle boys, and whenever her magic came back it was received in unintentional destructive and murderous ways. Many of the wizards in Mould-on-the-Wold became very suspicious of the Dumbledores, now with a killer father in Azkaban, so Kendra took the family to Godric's Hollow, another wizarding town, to protect her children. The only person in Godric's Hollow that befriended the Dumbledores was Bathilda Bagshot, a famous witch historian. Soon Albus and Aberforth started trying to hide the incidents going on in the family, and they never mentioned their father and Ariana to the public.
