Charlie is a fierce, majestic woman who has only become more glorious with age. Some ladies are a mere wine; she is firewhiskey.
History
Charlie was born in Godric’s Hollow and raised in Cartagena, Columbia—into a well off, wealthy family. Her father was an immigrant from Britain, her mother a resident of Cartagena. They met, fell in love, got married and had one child. After her birth there was much debate over where they would settle down—her father left his family home as her mother wanted to raise her child close to her family. Charlie will insist that she was by far the most impressive child out of all her cousins, much to their irritation. When she was old enough, she attended Ledesma School of Magic, her mother’s alma mater. Charmaine quickly picked up on Dream Magic and Mind Magics. She was a competitive student, domineering and sometimes difficult to work with. However, her performance in class was excellent—other than having strong opinions paired with a large mouth, she was a model student.
After graduation, she did her fair of travelling, tutoring and teaching dream theories and dream magic. Occlumency and legilimency played a very minor role in some educational scenarios. It was during her travels that she met her husband, a magizoologist and conservationist named Patricio. When they married, she stayed firm with keeping her last name, and after much debate, he took hers. Her travels were not all positive—she did spend some time in the hospital after getting in a duel with a wizard who had disrespected her authority. His spell caused some permanent damage to her back, though that didn’t get in the way of the wedding.
A few years after her marriage and injury, she accepted a job offer at her alma mater to work as a professor of dream magic. During that time, she and Patricio had five children, twelve grandchildren, and seven great-grandchildren. She taught for fifty seven years. After a long illness, Patricio died and Charlie was left with an empty home, with all her children and most of her grandchildren grown. She decided to retire and move to Godric's Hollow, where her father had left her his family home so long ago. After a series of renters had come and gone, the house was left needing to be fixed up just a bit. After all, she was going to be staying there now, much to Wheezy the house elf’s delight.
Career
She is recently retired and very much enjoying it.
