Prologue
Childhood: Up to the invitation
Quinton Richard Jaeger (Yay-grr) was born on July 7th, 2000, along with his twin brother Thomas. They were born to Katharine and Frederick Jaeger; Muggleborn and Pureblood respectively. Quinton's parents loved him and his brother dearly. A little sister entered the mix three years later. Makayla Lauren Jaeger was born on August 4th, 2003, and she became fast friends with her older brothers. The three of them were inseparable for years.
All three were the beautiful children of wonderful parents. Quinton and Thomas got their grandfather's red hair, their mother's blue eyes, and their father's nose, among other traits. Makayla got her mother's blonde hair, her father's green eyes, and her grandmother's perfect teeth.
What the three of them wouldn't find out until they were older was their family's true heritage.
Katharine and Frederick weren't ready to introduce their children to magic until the boys reached the age of 8. So, on the boys' 8th birthday, the 5 of them went on a little trip to the Wizarding world. It was a fun trip, especially for Quinton. Quinton had been wondering about where some of his natural abilities came from, as he didn't think that most people would consider them normal. Makayla was just in a state of constant awe, seeing everything she had ever dreamed about in her waking reality. Thomas was impressed, but he already had an idea that there was something his parents had hidden from them. Not unlike Santa Claus and the Tooth Fairy.
After the 1st trip, the Jaeger family would visit the magical world more and more often. Quinton was the most interested, though. He finally had an explanation for his odd abilities, and he could learn more about them to help master them. Thomas liked the idea of being able to craft, mix, and create any number of solutions for any number of problems. Potion-making and Arithmancy would be fields to research more about in the future. Makayla was just amazed at the sheer number of animals she didn't even know existed.
Frederick also took the opportunity to introduce his children to his old friends from school. Brookwood Black, Samuel O'Cleerey and Raven Barksten Blackstone II were all very nice to the boys, and ensnared by Makayla's inherent adorableness. The 4 of them had been best friends all through their time in Gnomewitts together, causing all manner of mischief throughout the school over the course of 7 years. Of course they were all tamed by women who entered their lives and could only look back at their old ways. Their legacy would clearly be carried on, however, through the Boys, and Brookwood's own set of twins.
While the threat of Voldemort's rise to power had been stopped in Europe, there were other people ready to make a mad grab at whatever power was out there. In 2010, a group of highly trained ice wizards whitewashed the eastern US in a powerful blizzard. They were detained rather quickly, but they were still able to cause a large amount of damage to communities all along the east. However, a more powerful and sinister threat was rising. Even more powerful than Voldemort, or Grindelwald before him. Like a demon, this man emerged from a place of hellish torment, and he intended to share it.
On August 24th, 2011, the Jaeger family got a special message from a certain educational institution. Gnomewitts: School for Magically Gifted Children would accept Quinton and Thomas into their school. Their letters had all the information they needed: A shopping list, dress code, and rules to abide by.
School would start on September 5th, with students arriving the day before to be sorted into their Troops. That gave them 2 ½ weeks to get all of the stuff they needed and mentally prepare for 9 months away from home. Quinton and Thomas were so excited they could hardly sleep. This was going to be an awesome year.
The next Chapter will be a Family History for the Jeagers, to help you all get more familiar with the characters that your OCs will be interacting with.
