HISTORY:
Born in a tiny fishing town, Evelina and her sister Elsa-Luna are seventh generation twins. And while Elsa (and later on their younger sister, Linnéa) took an interest in their father's business, Lina would often slip away to lay at the top of the hill near their home. There, she would find comfort as the lay in the field of flowers and gazed up at the night sky. In their small town, the light pollution was not heavy and the night skies were often clear. She would watch the stars and the planets and she would dream of a life bigger than the one she was born into.
Lina always knew there was something different about her. Her school age classmates did as well. Lina and Elsa were both viewed as strange. Weird things would happen around them. For Elsa-Luna, she was able to effortlessly talk anyone into anything. It surpassed the bounds of charisma...it was almost compulsory. And with Lina...anyone who would wrong another or a harmless creature would often find tragedy befalling them. It was eerie. They would look into the startling eyes of Evelina and within hours...something bad would happen to them.
When the twins received acceptance letters from a magical boarding school...their parents didn't know what to make of the situation. However...after a lot of reflecting, they decided to let the girls go. It was important that they learn to control whatever these powers were. And thus, the twin daughters were off.
While Lina was quickly sorted into Ravenclaw, the hat barely being placed on her head...she had to watch her twin sister sit on the stand for almost eight minutes until the hat finally placed the sisters together. For seven years, the twins were almost inseperable. The only times the girls were apart was when Elsa would shuffle off to her higher classes that Lina never cared to attend...and then Lina would take her leave to attend her art classes and her astrology classes.
One twin living with her feet on the ground...the other with her head in the stars.
During her school days, Lina would often sit in a comfortable silence next to a cute housemate of hers in the art rooms...both of them painting and enjoying the company without having to exert the energy on carrying on conversations and small talk. But as the days went on...the two gradually began to talk and spend time together outside of the art room. He would show her his talents in music...and Lina would show him the stars and the worlds beyond their own.
And gradually, Lina fell in love with him.
Their relationship was full of calm passion. He was her first love...and after graduation, she didn't expect them to get married or settle down right away. She knew they each had their own dreams to chase. But as they both began traveling...communication became harder. As gradually as they had fell in love...they fell apart. It seemed impossible to keep things going and out of fairness to each other, the two decided to end their relationship.
Lina took it hard and to distract herself, she took a job in China. For years, she spent her time in the Wuyuan Villages. The skies were clear...the civilians were private and non intrusive. And Lina and her partner were able to properly observe the star patterns they had come to research.
But as the project wrapped up, Lina began to look through her belongings as she packed. And in a stack of mail...she gazed upon a letter she had received from Hogwarts, her alma mater. The astronomy professor position was vacant...and yes, she felt bad that she hadn't responded right away. And perhaps they had started the year without a firm professor in place. But...it was time to go home. So with that, she reached out...and McGonagall welcomed her with open arms.
After the holiday break, Hogwarts would have a new professor of the stars...and Lina would practice a new life, settling down a bit and not expecting to run into her ex.This lovely character is being played by someone who just wants to see a lil drama!
