House Therrien is an well off house in recent memory, in the last few generations the house has produced star pupils who shape and restructure the fields of their fancy. Gwendoline was no different, from a young age the girl showed a knack for shaping reality around her.

Her years at school were filled with excellent marks in Transfiguration, Charms, and Arithmancy. She was head of the dueling club, Prefect and Head girl. A quiet and studious girl, who wand arm was almost as quick as her wit. She left school with her eyes set on an Auror position, though her father wasn't going to have it.

She was forced into a marriage, she took the auror job anyways. Any complaints raised by her husband were silenced by a glare from her green eyes. She wrote in her free time, "Transfiguration Years 1-7: A revision in common practice" & "On their toes: A guide to Transfiguration in Combat" were among her first releases.

During her fifth year as an auror, she thwarted a major smuggling ring. Single handedly dueling the ring leader to a standstill, and arresting his entire operation. She was awarded her Order of Merlin shortly after.

During her final year as an auror at the age of 28, She was injured by a dark curse. It rendered her left leg pretty much useless. She walks with the aide of a cane now, she is more agile on the leg than she lets on.

Don't look at me as broken,

When a duel between us still ends with me using this cane for balance.

After her injury, people thought she would settle down. She didn't, Her husband was busy sowing the oats in the servant girls... to care about children. Did people think she was blind, three of the four servant witches had babies with sunshine blonde hair, and hazel eyes.

No, the woman locked herself into her studies. Printing out several more books on transfiguration, and continuing to revise and edit older books for a new generation. It was around this time Hogwarts approached her the first time. She rejected the offer, not wanting to deal with school children.

It took another two years for Gwendoline to accept the offer, and now she is prepared to start her teaching journey.


I'm willing to go a bunch of ways with this... but what I had in mind, was there is another newer/newish teacher who is/was mixed up in some dark stuff. Gwendoline thinks they are up to something nefarious, and investigates. Though the closer she gets, the more they become involved romantically?
