MAYA LIGHTWOOD

Backstory

I may be a new Graduate of Mahoutokoro, but I have already spent twelve years studying spells, the unique bits of magic that we all use. Lingual histories, connections between the incantation and effect of a spell, that wonderful feeling when a spell is born. Of course, I had to get my license before I could get funding for my work, but that was more a formality than anything. I’m currently studying a set of ancient spellbooks in Cairo, but I occasionally apparate home to see my family. I say occasionally because my father is a bit too fond of the Firewhiskey for his own good and my Mother passed several years ago. Nevertheless, I continue to uncover old spells and create new ones in her name.
