History: Dawn was once an orphan to a small Country side Orphanage and while it was apparent that she was different and strange, Strange things didn't really start accruing until after the accident. Dawn loved the outdoors, specifically when it rained and smelled of earth. During one such rain storm she and the other children went to play in the rain and mud when the lightning started. They ran back to the house but Dawn lagged behind, not quite as afraid as the adults and the other children. This happened to be a bad idea, a dash of lightning struck the ground near the girl. Leaving her temporarily blinded and in incredible pain on the left side of her face. By the time the adults were able to bring her to safety Lichtenberg Scarring was visible.
Strange things started to accrue shortly after this as she was bed ridden for sometime, the reception by the other kids was mixed. younger children seemed to enjoy it when she got things to float, and older children found it scary. The adults weren't sure what to call it and had done much in their power to find a 'cure' calling Pasters and pops and the like.. Nothing worked of coarse and the adults were becoming more and more afraid and isolating her more and more. Despite this Dawn never let herself lose her positive energy or smile.
Eventually these strange things reached the ears of the Scamander family, An older couple who couldn't have children of their own but had done much in the way of giving Orphaned witches and wizards a home where they could nurture their magical talents as well as learn hard work. The couple used the same story they always did, they were professionals that could help a child like this. And so they took Dawn away to their little farm. Dawn instantly fell in love with the quaint little place on the outside that house horses, cows, pigs, chicken, ducks. She learned to care and work with each and every one. And when the couple felt she was ready they introduced her to the hidden side of their farm. A hidden away farm, the entrance hidden in one of their many sheds, full of magical creatures. Dawn fell even more in love, if that was at all possible.
Once she herself was old enough she was given an invitation to go it the magical school of Ilvamorny where she attend her first two years. She loved the school and knew it well, even learning that she was not the best with spells, though she did have some luck with charms and transfiguration. She could defend herself well but attacking was another matter she could never quite put her heart into it even if it was only a mock battle. She fawned over the magical creatures there, thoroughly enjoying her time there. Her plan had always been to take over her adoptive parents farm and run it as they had.
Unfortunately due some circumstances that her father could not tell them, Ministry of magic business, They were forced to move to the English branch so he would be closer to whatever work they were having him do. The only non magical animal they were able to bring was a little duck that Dawn had raised from an egg. She was sad to say good bye to Ilvamorny but knowing that she would be going to hogwarts, the very school she was Equally as excited. She promised to keep in contact with some of her friends by letter, mostly.
