Her parents raised her, Elijah, and Alexandra at Brighton Manor in Yorkshire, England. Alexandra’s mother died in the Battle of Godric’s Hollow when she was only four months old.

On September 1, 2032, an eleven-year-old Raquel joined her brother and sister at Hogwarts. The Sorting hat placed her into Gryffindor House the same house that her mother had been in their school days.

Some friends that she had at school besides her siblings were Aurora Axelsen, Cicily Axelsen, Jeremy Stackpoole, Devon Edwards.

#### Azkaban (2042-2043)

On August 14, 2042, protecting her brother Thomas from a crazy wizard Micha Abernathy Raquel killed him. Josie Devitt an Auror and Raquel's sister told her boss that Raquel was the one that killed Micha. Raquel was hauled off to the Ministry of Magic by Aurors. Then she was questioned with her mother present about what had happened. Though she killed him partly in self-defense she also admitted that she had stunned him but then revived him because he had tortured her best friend Sara Loftin and had killed Sara’s mother Kylee.

A few weeks later she was sentenced sixteen months in Azkaban Prison. It was devastating for her to have to put her life on hold she had been about to start her final year of Healer training. However she did what she had to protect her brother and did not regret it. Raquel started serving her time on August 29, 2042. Sometimes she would do things to annoy the guards like singing Christmas Carols loudly during the holiday season. After serving a year at Azkaban she was let out to finish her remaining sentence on House arrest at the Brighton Manor.

#### Freedom

In January 2044 now a free witch she was ready to pick up her life again. Enjoying her newfound freedom and being able to leave the Brighton Manor grounds she went to visit some of her friends. Still wanting to be a Healer she went to St. Mungo’s to register for the last year of her Healer training.

The first week of February she discovered herself to be pregnant. Since she’d slept with two guys close to the time she got pregnant and they were brothers Cavan Stackpoole and Jeremy Stackpoole. When she talked to both brothers separately, they had completely different reactions Cavan said he would be there and support her even if the baby wasn’t his since they were friends and he told her that’s what friends do. Cavan was in the process of adopting as a single parent. Jeremy's reaction was that it couldn’t be him since he had worn a condom. Since Cavan had worn a condom she just assumed he was the father and she was pleased since Jeremy was not ready nor wanted fatherhood.

On July 30, 2044, she went into premature labor due to abruptio placentae her mother a former Healer had to perform an emergency C-section the baby Celeste was 1 lb and 3 oz. Shortly after her baby was taken to St. Mungo’s where she stayed until October 8, 2044, when she was deemed well enough to go home.

Raquel also became a mother figure to the daughter Cavan adopted as a single father Roxane. Then in July 2045 she found an abandon baby at the hospital the mother had died from complications and the father a pureblood didn't want the baby since she was half-blood so she and Cavan adopted little girl and named her Hope.
