## Biography

### Early Life (1980s)

Aurora Cressida Charlotte Prewett was born on 20 July, 1980 to Rainier Prewett, Duke of Berkshire and Cressida Prewett (née Smith), Duchess of Berkshire at Prewett Manor, Reading, Berkshire England. Her father, was born into the pure-blood family House of Prewett, whilst her mother, Cressida, was a muggle-born witch from a farming family in Reading. The Prewetts never really had a house they were specifically sorted into, but both her parents were sorted into Slytherin. Since she was born into royalty, she was expected to learn a lot of languages. By the time she was 17, she knew how to speak five languages (fluently) - English, French, German, Italian and Turkish.

   Her parents wanted her to be a kind and caring girl, and a knowledgeable one as well. They encouraged her to read a lot and do things that interest her. They also had tutors who taught her English Literature, French, German and Ettiquette. She learnt Turkish and Italian from her father, who learnt those two languages out of interest. Whilst she was reading in the library one day, she found a book about magical animals. This sparked her interest in magical beasts.

Her father had once talked to her about pure-blood supremacy and but he told her not to worry too much about it because he thought it was stupid and irrelevant.

#### Friendships (1980s)

Aurora was very close with her two siblings Anastasia and Heron. They would spend a lot of time together, mainly in the house or in the gardens. They would do almost everything together. Aurora appreciated their companionship and the three siblings had a good relationship and didn't fight very often. They would often like to go play or read together. Aurora preferred being out in the nautre, but Anastasia and Heron preferred staying inside and they often had arguments about whether they would go outside or stay inside. So, with their mother's help, they eventually came up with a compromise.

   She also had another friend - Harriet 'Hattie' Campbell. Hattie was also an English half-blood witch who was born to a farming family, her mother being the magical side of the family. They frequently spent time together in the wilderness and had conversations about serious topics as well. Aurora would often complain to Hattie about her royal life and how people keep on visiting their house.

Aurora was also close to all three of her cousins on her mother's side of the family - Jocelyn, Emily and Primrose Walker. The three siblings are muggle-born witches and they come and visit often. They usually come and visit with their mother since their father is not home often. They all like to play Quidditch together and mostly spend time outside. Aurora is closest with her eldest cousin Jocelyn, but she is quite close with Emily and Primrose as well.

### Hobbies (1980s)

Aurora has always shown a liking for horse riding. She started riding when she was five. At the moment, she owns five horses: Matilda, Poppy, Josephine, Jupiter and Talon. Three of whom are grey (white) mares. Whilst Jupiter is a dark bay stallion and Talon, a bay stallion. She has trained all of her horses to do dressage, but Talon and Matilda do show jumping as well. All her horses pull carriages too, especially Matilda, Josephine and Jupiter. Poppy is her oldest horse, so Aurora doesn't make her do too much. She got her horses as birthday presents: Poppy when she was five, Josephine at eight, Jupiter at ten, Matilda and Talon at eleven.

She also enjoys reading. As she is technically part of the muggle Royal Family and interacts regularly with muggles, the Prewetts have kept a good range of muggle books to hide the books about magic and books by wizards and witches. Aurora has read many of the classic muggle books such as *Black Beauty* by Anna Sewell, *Pride and Prejudice* by Jane Austen and *Little Women* by Louisa May Alcott. She had read plenty of books written by wizards and witches as well. At the mere age of eight, she had read 'Fantastic Beasts and Where to Find Them' by Newton Scamander from cover to cover.

This was also because she had a deep interest for fantastical beasts. Aurora had a special liking for magical beasts. She thought they were fascinating creatures ('way more fascinating than the animals muggles own anyway'). She liked to draw and write about them in her notebook. Her sketches are very detailed and she observes every creature carefully (except for the dangerous ones of course, her mother would never let her near them anyway). Aurora wants to be a magizoologist when she is older.

### Hogwarts Years (1990s)

Aurora received her Hogwarts Acceptance Letter in the summer of 1991. Along with her brother and her mother, they went on a trip to Diagon Alley, whilst her father and her sister Anastasia kept the guests that were visiting their house busy. Aurora bought a Bombay Cat who she named 'Harley' after a little cat stuffed animal she got as a birthday present from her Aunt Claudine when she was three years old.

Once at Hogwarts, Aurora was sorted into Ravenclaw. Aurora was a very social girl, so she made many friends quickly. She was particularly good friends with Matilda-Jean Lawson and Dahlia Isaacs. They frequently visited each other's

Aurora's parents didn't really say much about her getting good grades, but Aurora knew that she had to get good grades anyway. Being a Ravenclaw, she was naturally quite smart. She studied a lot and spent a lot of her time in the library. Though as always, she loved spending time outside exploring the nature.
