Biography:
Alessa Louise was born to Darrell and Kimberly Knight on the morning of 29th November 1960. It wasn't long until they had another daughter, Lexine Isabell. The two Knight daughters were very close, spending most of their time together growing up. As time got closer to Alessa's Hogwarts letter, it was obvious to her parents that the two girls were quite different from one another in both looks and personality. Alessa had inherited her fathers dark looks, being quiet ambitious in life and knowing what she wanted and going after it. While Lexine had their mothers blonde hair and blue eyes, quiet happy to go with the flow and see where life takes her.
The day of Hogwarts finally came for Alessa and though she was sad to leave her sister she was also excited to finally be going to the place her parents talked a lot about over the years. The Sorting Hat had some trouble in placing her, going between that of Gryffindor and Slytherin which surprised the young girl, due to hearing how opposite the houses were, being enemies in the school. The hat finally decided on that of Slytherin, though Alessa wonders if that is because she asked it to, not wanting to be in the house her father hated while in school. She made some friends in her year, mostly out of her room mates and really enjoyed Defense Against the Dark Arts. Finding it very interesting, she also did not mind that of Potions and Transfiguration, much to the Professors surprise with the latter one.
The year after her sister joined Hogwarts and both were a little sad when she went to a different house, being sorted into Hufflepuff. Alessa learned more of how the other houses saw Slytherin that year, people in Hufflepuff were always keeping an eye on her or trying to avoid her altogether. Lexine tried to get her friends and her fellow house mates to see that her sister was nice but it did not work with most of them. Alessa kept trying to make friends outside of her house, mostly those who were friends with her sister but it was not meant to be. Towards the middle of her second year, she gave up trying to make something be that was obviously never going to happen. Keeping to her own house and only seeing her sister by herself.
During Alessa's Third and Fourth years, her so called Slytherin friends started to turn their back on her, not liking the fact that her sister was in a different house or when they found out she was a half-blood. She could not understand what the problem was, especially with her not being a pure-blood but it seemed the rest of her house was. Alessa found herself spending more time alone or with her sister, being an outcast in her own house. It happened slowly over two years but by her Fifth year she had no friends in her house, those who had been previously pretended it never happened. They said she did not belong in Slytherin due to her blood, family and the fact she would not pick on the muggleborns and lesser students.
Even in her final year she has no real friends to speak of, though some people did talk to her and try to be friendly at times. Alessa's sister was her one true friend but she made sure she didn't spend all her time with her due to the younger girl having her own friends in her own house and year. She had no idea what she wanted to do after Hogwarts and was just glad her father doesn't seem to be interested in joining this Dark Lord she had heard all about. Alessa had got use to being alone over the years and is a bit of a lone wolf due to this fact. But that doesn't mean she would move away from company if it comes to her, unless it is the unwanted kind of those she dislikes.
Alessa tried to help as much as possible when Hogsmeade was attacked on graduation day for the students in the year above her. She suffered some cuts and bruises but lived to tell the tale. Due to not being sure on a career after Hogwarts, Alessa did most of the NEWT lessons, trying to work hard so when she knew what she wanted to do. She would hopefully have the grades to go after it. Not having many friends meant she had lots of time to study and got good grades.
It wasn't until the summer after she had graduated that Alessa knew what she wanted to do for a career. One day while she was job searching, her father away at his own job, the family home was attacked by Death Eaters. It seemed her father had turned down joining them and they saw fit to punish such a thing, killing both Alessa's mother and younger sister. It was then she knew she wanted to be a Auror so she could stop such people doing things to other peoples family and friends. Alessa entered training soon after and has been there ever since, getting her own place to live when she had enough money.
