## Biography

### Early childhood

Elizabella Gerladine Slughorn was born in 2014, to Belladonna Bulstrode and Felix Slughorn. She is the only child either of her parents will ever have. They did not want offspring and tried to look at Elizabella's surprise existence as a blessing rather than a curse. She grew up learning to sign long before she was speaking. She was raised in a household where both of her parents are hearing impaired. Her parents were both they kind of people who were angry at the world for their hearing loss, despite that they were able to meet one another and share a similar enjoyment of pessimism. Love didn't change them but it did help them both to feel more accepted. They were married shortly after they graduated from Hogwarts, both former Slytherin they had high expectations for their next of kin. Unfortunately, they got a sweet little heaven sent angel. They wanted a warrior and they got a rose among thorns who would never fit into the mold they tried to squeeze her into.

Her parents, Belladonna and Felix, tried their best to show her affection. It was difficult for them because they weren't the typical loving, hugging, sort of people. Even though they didn't want her and the option of abandoning her was always on the table they didn't do it. They did consistently contemplate leaving her at a magical orphanage on even their best days, in spite of that inner desire they tried to love her to the best of their ability. They weren't great at pretending that she didn't disappoint them on a regular basis. She knows a forced smile from a real one after having seen them on both her parents faces. Felix and Belladonna had both shown magical aptitude at the ages of three and five years old, she went on to become an Animagi Trainer and he went on to become a Magical Creature Breeder. Even with twice daily Kwikspell lessons Elizabella didn't show any sign of magic until she was eight years old. Her parents were not please, they gifted her with a celebration present of a Hand of Glory nonetheless.

In 2022 she healed the painfully fresh injury of her friend, Alderic Hopkirk, who had gotten hit in the face with a viciously smashed volley ball. They were playing at the beach on Weddell Island when she invited them into a game with a handful of strangers. They played on opposite teams and she got a little to competitive with Alderic who had been scoring quite a few points because of her mishaps. She'd heard him and some of the people on his team laughing after he'd scored another point because she missed a return. Her teammates were sweet and encouraging, they weren't able to get through to her. She found an opportunity to score a point on Alderic and she took it. They both misjudged the other and he stopped the ball with his face instead of his hands. Seeing what she had caused to happen when blood came spurting out from Alderic's nose she panicked. She stopped the flow of blood and but she couldn't fix his nose.
