11 ½ inches, oak wood with a bent shaft and hippogriff talon core.


Genevieve spends time, money and magic on maintaining a pristine appearance. She is of Latin American decent and, as a result, has dark eyes and dark hair complimenting tanned skin. She has shoulder length dark brown hair which is mostly worn down. Normally it falls in neatly styled waves, not a hair out of place. Her dark brown eyes are extremely expressive and her smile and full lips frame bright white teeth clearly enhanced with potions. It would be as if Genevieve hasn’t aged in the last decade if one were to look at her.

Maintaining the illusion of a perfectly presented witch, Genevieve will only wear tailored suit jackets, smart jeans and dresses for work. She will occasionally don a set of wizarding robes but finds them too warm and fussy. As the editor of such a popular and well known magazine, she feels it prudent to dress smartly. Therefore, she will never be seen in public without a pair of eye wateringly high heels and a full face of makeup.


On first appearances, one might believe that Genevieve is simply an aloof party lover than simply fell into her job role. One might even question if she’d slept with the owner for such a role because her own actions don’t seem to make her capable. She is an enormous flirt and a party addict. With no care for the night of the week that she chooses to go out and enjoy herself, Genevieve is in the habit of rolling into the Witch Weekly headquarters hungover and tired. A constant supply of hangover potion is kept in the office cupboard and the magazine’s assistants and interns are always prepared with coffee and a fresh set of clothes.

Despite what some might think, Genevieve takes her job extremely seriously but it is clear that she is a lover of the social life, parties and her somewhat celebrity status. She has been labelled as the Gossip Queen and certainly lives up to such a pseudonym. Genevieve is the witch you want at your party or bar but to watch and talk to other people rather than yourself. She is outgoing and can be very silly, vivacious and flirtatious. She certainly isn’t picky about the age of men she flirts with, but a large coin purse and connections always helps.

While on the outside, it would appear than Gen has many friends, a closer look would be very telling. She lives alone and hasn’t had a real relationship since her husband was locked away in the middle of the North Sea. Her lively and somewhat eccentric exterior hides the true loneliness and fear. Before her book, people would actively avoid her, convinced that she’d known about her husband’s criminal activities and purist ways. How could she not have, having been in a relationship with him since the age of 15? Having to bring her son up alone when faced with such prejudiced has left her hardened and independent.



Genevieve was born to parents Rosa and Miguel García in Mexico City. Miguel was a highly-experienced curse breaker and Rosa a mediwitch. They already had three children of school age and Genevieve had certainly come as a surprise.

It was at the age of 7 that Miguel García was given the job opportunity of a lifetime and the family made the move across the Atlantic ocean to London, England. Miguel installed himself as an operations organiser for the Gringott’s curse breakers and Rosa became a travelling mediwitch for the sickly in their homes.

Living in London had meant that Genevieve received her Hogwarts school letter, boarded the train at King’s Cross Station and became a Ravenclaw student. With a few years of learning spells, herbology and potions under her hat, Genevieve began to switch her focus from her school work and onto friends, boys and parties. It was in her fifth year that she met Leo Gamp, a sixth year Slytherin bad boy from a well-known pureblood family with a sly smile and a captivating personality.

Genevieve found herself becoming enthralled with Leo Gamp and she hardly cared. Leo left school at the end of his Seventh year and Gen didn’t return for hers. This was, of course, much to the chagrin of her parents who thus refused to house her for fear of encouraging the idiocy. Gen didn’t care; Leo had gained a place on Auror training and the couple rented a rather disgusting flat in Knockturn Alley.

With only OWLs as her qualifications, Genevieve took longer to find a position. Her own family were uninterested in helping unless it involved returning to Hogwarts and Leo’s family were equally as uninterested in the Hogwarts dropout living in Leo’s flat. Gen, therefore, lost herself in her own writing. She’d share her thoughts and daily goings on in her journal.

One day, a position finally came up as an errand runner for the Daily Prophet and it seemed like the perfect way into a possible career.

In 1995, Genevieve and Leo got married. It was a couple of months later that Voldemort returned. All seemed perfectly fine for the couple who were both working hard. Leo seemed to be working more and more hours, but that was to be expected at a time of war.

In 1998, following the Battle of Hogwarts, Leo Gamp was arrested. He’d gone to fight at the battle, he’d told his young wife as such. What she’d not realised, was that he’d gone to fight for the Death Eaters. Her bad boy with the charming smile was far darker than she’d ever believed and she’d not had a chance to tell him the big news that she was pregnant.

The Wizengamot trial had been nightmarish. Having her life and privacy dragged through the mud for all to learn had been unbearable. Not only had she unknowingly lost her husband to an inconceivable evil, but the entire country knew about it and refused to believe that she was innocent.

Leo Gamp was sentenced to life in Azkaban with no chance of release; he had, after all murdered and tortured for his Dark Lord.

The months that followed had been draining and difficult. Howlers were sent daily to her Knockturn Alley address amongst various threats dealt personally. Of course it slowly eased but people remained angry, unable to truly punish those now locked away in Azkaban. She felt like the next best thing.

Dante García was born in early 1999. He was, as far as she was aware, unknown to his imprisoned father and was given her family name for fear of the associations as he grew up. He was her saving grace, something to keep her head held high for.

In the year following Leo’s arrest, Genevieve applied for a divorce, desperate to free herself of the criminal husband. Unfortunately, the recent Azkaban prisoner refused to sign anything.

It was a few years after Dante’s birth that Gen began to find the struggle too much. Prejudices and prejudgements were not kind to her so she took quill to parchment to tell her own story. Diary entries dating to her late Hogwarts years were compiled, edited and enhanced to include a far more detailed and heart wrenching yet sometimes funny account of her own experience. Leo was painted as a cruel and vindictive liar, she was painted as an innocent and gullible girl in love. It had been an enhanced but gripping truth.

Unsurprisingly, Obscurus books agreed to publish and the first sale date for ‘The Death Eater in my Bed’ in 2004 at Florish and Blotts had been epic. Genevieve went from a social pariah to a celebrity overnight. People suddenly wanted to know her, to talk to her and drink with her.

Her rise to fame and newfound independence and money gave Genevieve another spur of confidence. She’d not seen her husband since his Wizengamot trial years before, refusing to visit him or even inform him of his son. She made her one and only visit with a sheet of parchment for him to sign. He once more refused.

6 months after her book release, the Editor of Witch Weekly approached her with a job offer for a column. Gen gratefully jumped at the chance and things only moved up from there. In 2006, she found herself heading Witch Weekly, taking over from the now retired editor. There is still considerable speculation about how she got the job.

Having remained in such a position for the past few years, Genevieve is comfortable in her role. Her son, Dante has just started his 2nd year at Hogwarts and she is still married to a convicted Death Eater serving his life sentence in prison.


Genevieve is Editor of Witch Weekly magazine. As such, she is in charge of the daily running of the magazine and the final line as to what makes the weekly cut. She is known as the Gossip Queen for the wizarding world. She is known as Queen G to her readers, or simply ‘The Queen’.

As editor, Gen still writes her weekly column and introduction to the magazine. She is still the centre for gossip and uses her links within the wizarding world to find out what she needs to know.


Despite questions about her suitability for the role, Witch Weekly has continued on the up, remaining a favourite amongst witches across the country. Gen’s book with her honest, funny and sad exposé on her life living with the convicted Death Eater and the aftermath caught the attention of Witch Weekly’s former editor. She’s a confident and experienced writer and knows what the public needs and wants in a witch’s magazine.



Genevieve is the trapped wife of a convicted Death Eater serving a life sentence in Azkaban for murder amongst other crimes against muggleborn witches and wizards. Having written a book with her painfully honest memoirs and risen to fame, Gen, or Queen G, is now the Editor of Witch Weekly and a great lover of partying late into the night despite being a mother to a 12-year-old.
