More Information
Eleni was born the only child to a wealthy pureblood heir from France and a muggle-born wizard in Southern Wales. She was raised as a proper pureblood “princess” for most of her life due to her mother's upbringing in pureblood society. Her parents were happily married up until she was six years old.
They had gone on a summer holiday and the manor they stayed at had a lake with a small island in the middle of it. Eleni convinced her mother (which means she threw a tantrum) to take her on a picnic on the island despite the small prediction of rain. While they were on the island, a storm came up and they tried to cross the lake in their rowboat. However, the winds were too strong and the rowboat ended up capsizing. Tiny Eleni was swept away in the currents and found a mile and a half away, unconscious and soaking wet two days later. Her mother had drowned in the deep waters. After she was found, Eleni became very sick and almost died of pneumonia that summer. Since then, she’s had a severe phobia of deep water and boats.
After the funeral, her father was practically non-existent in her life. He was off philandering around the continent and leaving the maids to raise and tutor Eleni. She attended Hogwarts, being sorted into Slytherin house, but had a hard time making friends due to her studious nature and isolated childhood. In her free time, she would often be in an abandoned classroom working on improving different potions, but never really took it seriously until her seventh year where they could create a potion for extra credit on their NEWTS.
Her father didn’t show up to her graduation, choosing instead to send her a present via owl post after she returned home to the manor. She stayed there for a couple of years before deciding to travel around Europe. She did so until she was 20 then came back to Wales to decide what to do with her life. She always found healing fascinating and she loved potions, so she thought about a mastery in Potions, but she didn’t have a sponsor. She’d heard of a university for the magical beings and after a bit of research, applied to be a double major between healing and potions, wanting to specialize in healing potions.
