History:
- Red, naturally wavy hair typically pulled back into an austere style
- Creamy, porcelain skin
- Willowy, 5ft. 6in.
- Green eyes
- Right handed
- Typically wears dark colors
- Born the youngest daughter to an average middle class family.
- Had a happy childhood.
- In her third year, she met Ephraim Belby, who was a 5th year at the time. The two quickly fell in love and became that gross, sappy couple that exchanged letters in the summer months. She promised to wait for him for marriage, and wait she did.
- In her seventh year, her father passes away. After graduation, she and Ephraim quietly wed.
- Eloise is ridiculously happy and in 1874, daughter Aria was born. In 1879, Archer was born. She spends much of her time publishing articles on astronomy and gains a bit of a following. With motherhood as her inspiration, she publishes several textbooks for first years in the topic.
- In 1883, life changed dramatically. Ephraim was involved in a werewolf attack. Several other healers died from their wounds, but Ephraim survived and ultimately, became a werewolf himself. Eloise - devoted and still in love - was determined to make it work and stand by his side. She began to study how to become an animagus in hopes that she could take a form that had the strength to handle a werewolf during the full moon.
- Ephraim chooses to divorce her, no matter what her thoughts on the subject were. Her heart is broken and the only way she can keep herself going is to dive into her animagus studies. He sheds his old life as if a person can just change identities - even changing his name - and abandons them. She becomes a bitter shell of a person.
- 1886 has Eloise completing her animagus studies as she masters the ability to turn into a Siberian Tiger - the orange sheen of it’s fur is the same shade as her hair.
- 1888 has Archer being sent off to Hogwarts. With no one else to keep her company in her London townhome, she decides she needs something else to keep her mind busy. She takes a position as the Astronomy professor at Hogwarts, having been a published author and expert in the field.
