Avery McFadden
Save my blushes for the grave,
No shy glance, no coy restraint,
And I won't hang my head,
And I won't repent,
Won't face the wall and count to ten

History:
Avery McFadden was born into a pure blood family with one older brother, a slightly younger brother in Ravenclaw. She found herself in the middle, and in school a Slytherin. Later her father would remarry not once but twice, and she would gain a 41 year old half sister, another family member sorted into Gryffindor and a 32 year old brother who spent his school years traveling in between the UK and the States, attending both Ravenclaw and it's American equivalent. Both of her parents worked in the Ministry, and she hate a bit of a love hate relationship with them.
It was as if she was never sure whether she should admire or resent them. Over the years she's redirected her focus. Her family's past is tumultuous and for a variety of reasons, mainly her security somewhat sealed off to all those except Ministry staff with very high clearance.
In school she was close to her cousins, and the women who would one day be her sister in law, another slytherin who was a year ahead of her. She's rather close to her sister in law's twin too.
In her adulthood she has had many successes and a few failures. Her marriage, a failure. Obviously she's had a few family issues. Her daughter is 19 and in her 7th year at Hogwarts. Of course this was due to travels, still people do talk. As her career, some had her pegged to bring the wizarding world into a whole new era. Now she finds herself wondering about said era will prove to be.
