[ History: ] May 22 was the day Scarlett came into the world. The muggle world that is, Iris being muggle born. She was born to Andrew and Iris Montgomery. Her father born and raised in the U.K. Her mother born and raised in California. Her parents met by chance when her mother was visiting the U.K. She had to leave but they decided to stay in contact, when Iris returned to Cali. her body went through changes. She was having morning sickness and all the signs of being pregnant. She went to the doctors and indeed she was one month pregnant. She called Andrew as soon as she knew and he asked for her to move to the U.K. with him, she agreed and on February 18, Jeffery Warren was born, Iris’s older brother. They lived in the U.K. for two years and after those years Iris conceived again. This time it was a girl and Scarlett was born. The Montgomery family lived in the U.K. for two more years and then Iris couldn’t be away from her family any more, so they packed and moved to Cali.
Scarlett grew up in the state and loved it, she quickly became accustom to the Cali way. Her brother not so much, he preferred the U.K. However, the family stayed there and when Scarlett was growing up they knew there was something different about there beautiful daughter. They would’ve never guessed she was a witch. They received a notice from a private school in the states and then knew, she was much different then they could have ever imagined. It was an initial shock to them but they choose to let their daughter go and embrace her gift. It was hard for Scarlett to catch on to all the charms and things but she always got through it. She’s learned a lot but still to this day she has trouble catching on as fast as the other students. She always gives it her all and tried her best, though.
The Montgomery family has always been close but many times not always get along. Iris was brought up in a loving, upper middle-class, home, being well off ever since Scarlett could remember. Her brother over protective of her and since they only have two years age difference they confide in each other and cover for each other if it be needed. They seemed to have it all...
That was until their mother passed away of a drug overdose. It was a shock to the family, everything seemed to be going so good and then her death. It was hard on Iris and she became reserved with her emotions. No one in the family could understand why she had done it but the point was that she did. Scarlett didn’t know how to feel she felt sad, angry, and guilty about what happened to her mother. All her mixed feeling made her fall into herself, shutting herself out from everybody. Her brother acting up, from not being able to drown his pains on anything else, he was on the verge of a dangers path. Not that there father would notice that his children need attention because he’d hide out at work. One day, Andrew realized he needed to save his family and try to bring the happiness back into their lives. A year later, things became better and everybody was going back living there lives. One night Andrew announced that he had a better job offering in the U.K. and seeing how his family was back on track decided the move would be good for all of them. He had heard of a school called Hogwarts and knew they could teach his daughter well.
They all agreed and now it’s time for a fresh start.
[ Special talents/knacks : ] Her special talent would be art. She has a love for painting, mind you, it may not be the greatest but she'd learning from her mistakes. Her ability to have super fly dance moves, like the running man and having a sense of humor to her. Her knack would have to be her stubbornness. She stands up for herself, which she thinks is good, but being adamant and stubborn are two different things and sometimes she likes to play with that border line. However, she is always willing to compromise, so she thinks, some people might say she's impossible.
