Ira Rhian Glamis

The Glamis Twins by Athalia Derwent

Twin sister of Mia Piper Glamis, Ira Rhian Glamis is one of the two Charms Professors at Hogwarts, alongside her sister.

### **Appearance**

Identical
twins, both stand tall at 5’11 with relatively lanky figures, causing them to
tower and loom over many of the students. They prefer to keep their black hair
tied back in a neat, braided bun that contrasts with their pale skin and
sparkling blue eyes. Preference for black, flowing hooded cloaks.

### **Personality**

Snarky,
cunning, intelligence. Perhaps if they had made it to Hogwarts The Hat would’ve
found itself unable to pick between Slytherin or Ravenclaw. Or Hufflepuff,
even? Given their unwavering loyalty to one another, even if it often seems
like they have no care for anyone else. Perhaps a Gryffindor? Given their bold
adventures around the world. The Sorting Hat should perhaps be glad it met
neither’s head, for the Glamis twins make quite the double act.

### **Background**

The Glamis twins were born in London to a wealthy Pure-blood
household on the 14th of June 1984. For the longest time, they were
thought a blessing upon the house; an inseparable duo who whilst mischievous
were still the scions of a great Pure-blood house.

A disagreement between their family and Hogwarts led to them
not attending the school, despite a long and drawn out series of arguments. To
escape their shame they fled to their country home in the Brecon Beacons to
start a new life.

Of course, now that they were eleven their education as
young witches had to begin. Gwyneth Alwyn, a well-respected home tutor who had
worked for many, many Pure-blood families over the years was hired on as a
live-in teacher/nanny to care for them whilst their father ‘worked’ and their
mother enjoyed the good life that came with wealth.

It was perhaps no surprise when their father taken away for
his time as a Death Eater when the war came to an end; yet they couldn’t care
less, they barely knew their father, being practically raised by their teacher.
However, the effect on their mother was much, much worse. With their father
gone, she fell into a spiral of depression, one which she never came out of;
Gwyneth Alwyn having to care for mother and twins alike, whilst also attempting
to raise her own daughter.

In the end, once the Glamis twin’s education was over, the
Alwyns had to leave. Despite the twins pleas (something the woman had never
heard in all her years teaching them) they had to move on. Regardless, the
Alwyns remained close family friends.

In the meantime, the Glamis twins took over the care of
their mother, but after only a few years they found it too much to handle and
took her to St. Mungos for proper care. There, she was mistakenly assigned to the
Janus Thickey; yet the twins found themselves unable to protest, given how much
of a relief they found it to be with the burden off their shoulders.

They left to travel for a long time, adventuring the world,
seeing sights, honing their magic and looking for exciting new ways to use
them.

It was many, many years before they became homesick; when
they finally came back to their family they found the family house-elf, Renae,
had kept it spotless, they also found their mother in the same hopeless state
in the hospital. All in all, nothing had changed in over ten years.

They tried to take up managing the family affairs, to be the
proper Pure-blood heirs they were expected, yet found themselves bored. That was
until an opportunity jumped into their laps, a chance to teach the sisters
favourite subject at a little school called Hogwarts.
