{ CHILDHOOD }
1865 | Diana was born with the intention of Allegra and Alaric Fawley having a son. When it was made clear they were to have their first daughter, they quickly sought to name her after her grandmother and matriarch of their branch of the family. Diana is the 2nd child to grace the Fawley Family.

1867 | At the age of two, Diana starts her schooling with a governess and begins the long education in all the ways and means of a proper English young woman.

1869 | A rather playful child was found in Diana as she grew up in her family's estate in London. With vacations in the summer to the coasts of further off lands, she grew up adoring the smell of beaches and saltwater in the air. She and her brother were close playmates and enjoyed each other's company.

1870 | Henry is sent to Hogwarts and sorted into Ravenclaw.

1873 | Their summer on the beach was concluded without Allegra who had been about to birth the Family's third and final child. They name her Octavia Rose. Diana, who sees the child as the reason her mother's affections had been lacking as of late, is less than thrilled. In reality, the second Fawley child has not shown any such case of magic and her parents start to worry they've birthed a squib.

1875 | Diana shows her first sign of magic at the age of 10. Having had her peace with her younger sister and found her quite agreeable, she proceeds to levitate a silver spoon down at breakfast time in order to feed her.

{ HOGWARTS }

As with many students who find their home at Hogwarts, she takes to her studies like a fish to water and finds her fondness for home growing with each day that she's away from it.

She and Henry grow closer as siblings however she cannot help but miss her little sister. As the years progress and Octavia learns how to properly pen a letter, she and Diana write to each other dreaming of summers spent abroad on the beaches. Octavia expresses her desire to join her sister sooner rather than later, however as it stands their age gap sees Diana graduate the year before Octavia would be slated to start. Always one to shy away from attention, Diana makes it through a majority of her years being pleasantly included among her classmates and makes it through Hogwarts without little trouble. It is when Diana fails to make Prefect her fifth year that she begins to feel like a disappointment to her family. While never one to claim leadership in a group, Di knows her family would have been thrilled had such a title been bestowed upon one of their own.

During her years at Hogwarts, Diana develops a relationship with one William Abbott, a Quidditch player - exactly the sort she knows her mother would never approve of.
