Allie was born to former Gryffindor Edward and his Muggle wife Bonnie in March of 2086, a year and a day after her older sister Tessa and three years before brother Chester. Her father worked as a magical architect and her mother a teacher at a muggle primary school. The couple met at a birthday party for a mutual Muggleborn friend and the rest was history.

She met her future wife Matty at Hogwarts on the first day of school. The pair were dormmates, best friends and then eventually a couple in their sixth year. Allie is very close to her in-laws and often goes on holiday and attends family gatherings with the Ackerly-Broadmoors even if she wasn’t expressly invited.

In the spring of 2113 she married her partner Matty in a small ceremony for close family and friends.

Weaknesses: Vulnerable to Criticism, Inflexible, Needy, Overly-Selfless

Allie is an extremely friendly and sociable girl who gains energy from being around other people. She was sorted into Gryffindor for her bold and dutiful personality being the type of person who didn’t mind getting her hands dirty in order to help others. She enjoyed partaking in muggle sports (she preferred to keep her feet on the ground) and had a flair for the theatrics in school, in an attempt to dispel the stereotype of the blonde girly-girl she appeared outwardly as. That isn’t to say that she is a tomboy for take the woman shopping and she’d spend hours browsing much to the dismay of her companions.

Allie has been in some kind of employment since leaving Hogwarts in 2104. She started by waitressing at the Steel Cauldron, an ironically Wizard themed cafe in her Muggle hometown of Sevenoaks, Kent. She studied Primary & Secondary Wizarding Education at university with the idea that she would become a teacher due to her adoration of children and wanting to engage the next generation. Her final year of her undergraduate study included a year as a student teacher at Hogsmeade Primary School where she taught years 5 & 6, focusing on Muggle-Wizard Relations and Magical Theory. Although she adores working with children, it was during her summers spent at her girlfriend’s aunts (Trixie Broadmoor) private healing practice that she realised her passion with working with people in all walks of life. She went on to study a postgraduate degree in Wizarding Relations & Communications with a focus on covering this topic in schools.

In 2111, Allie applied for a ministry position in the hopes that steady employment will help her to pay for her 2113 wedding. Although she misses being a teacher, she finds the constantly changing environment rewarding and plans to stay in her position for a couple more years before she thinks about furthering her career. In late 2113, the Minister offered her a promotion to Hogwarts Liaison to further challenge her abilities.
