HISTORY: -
The second eldest of four daughters, Althea grew up in Ipswich, Suffolk. Both of her parents are magical, though her father is Muggleborn and ensured his daughters were brought up with one foot in each world too. She attended a muggle primary school and at age eleven got her Hogwarts letter and was sorted as a Ravenclaw, though it was a near thing as she was a hatstall and the hat was torn between Ravenclaw and Slytherin. She achieved 10 OWLs and 9 NEWTs, was a reserve for the Ravenclaw Quidditch team from third year through seventh, and student leader of the Charms Club for 5th through 7th year.

Upon graduating Hogwarts she enrolled in a Wizarding University, where she stayed for four years. She graduated with a Degree in Magical Metallurgy and Advanced Experimental Charms. During this time she met a magical tattooist whom she dated on and off until 2068, when she moved to Australia to begin her teaching career.

While working as a charms professor at a Wizarding School in Australia, she met and fell in love with a talented Wizarding Researcher, who's connections meant that she had an opportunity to gain employment at the Wizarding University of Darwin. They got engaged and decided to begin trying for a child. Unfortunately Althea found it difficult and did not get pregnant. As a result of this they broke up and her ex-fiancé was with someone else only a few weeks later. Althea remained in Australia for a year, but moved back to England at the request of her family, pleased to go and not be faced with guilt or heartbreak anymore.

Her family wanted her to come home because her grandmother recently passed away and her sister is due to be married soon. Her parents have decided to settle and retire in Tinworth rather than move into her grandmother's house because all her sisters are married (or soon to be) and live with their families, Althea is the one who gets to inherit her grandmother's house which is in the South of France but has direct floos right to her parents and siblings. Its a nice place with a lot of fond memories and maybe just what she needs to get on with her life.

Of course, knowing she needed a new job, Althea went to visit Hogwarts and informed Tate in no uncertain terms that he needed her. It was just luck that he actually did.
