“Been tryin’ hard not to get into trouble, but I, I’ve got a war in my mind”
In the small farming region of Norway, just north of the larger city of Trondheim one would be able to find a place by the name of Surnadal. There was a family with the last name of Selwyn. To those that had little to no background in magic, the family was invisible, however to those who were in the know, the family was incredibly known. Ingrid and her brother were the children of the acting Minister of Magic for Norway, and being such, they were always held to a high standard.
However, within a year of her birth, Norius was killed while overseas on business, leaving his brother in charge as a stand-in while they found a replacement. This however never happened, as the country seem to appreciate the change, and Nikolai’s harsh ways.
A few years down the road, at the age of eight, tragedy struck again for Ingrid when she was diagnosed with a heart disease. The healers told the family to prepare for the worse, as during that time there wasn’t much in terms of potions to help cure such an illness. It wasn’t until the mother, Viola was approached with a cure that they saw a small sliver of hope, but instead of telling the rest, she kept it between her and Nikolai.
The two came up with the plan, and made a deal with the healer with a cure to keep it secret, it wasn’t difficult with the money they had. Viola then went so far as to fake Ingrid’s death, convincing everyone that she had truly died before sending her off with her cruel grandparents to be raised like a proper young lady.
After that, Ingrid was relocated to a small village just outside of Switzerland’s capital, forced to start schooling in a small, unknown school once she was of age.
It wasn’t until the age of 15 that she managed to run while on a trip with the class, somehow managing to find her way back to England, where her grandmother Agnes and brother was staying. After finalizing her school at Hogwarts, Ingrid made her name in the dragonologist world.
Having been raised in such a harsh way that she was, one would think Ingrid would be a harsh, cruel person, however that is far from the case. Ingrid is full of life, and is dying to experience all that life possibly has to offer. She has grown up to be a kindhearted and accepting young lady, not concerned by where others stood in terms of class, unlike her mother back at home and her grandparents.
However, like everyone she had her downfalls, she became rebellious from an early age, often finding herself sneaking out against the knowledge of those that raised her. She wanted to become her own person, she wanted to be independent. Unfortunately though, being raised in the family, she was distanced from most and therefore has a tendency to be fairly naive at times, especially in new settings.
