Isobel Abbott was born on May 14 to the prestigious Gwendolyn and Richard Abbott, in which she had a wonderful childhood. Growing up, she was taught all the correct manners and disciplines, much like every other child at the time. Partially because of her mother and partially because of her own wit, Isobel was quite the clever prodigy. She was wise beyond her years and always wanted to spend time with her elders instead of children her own age. It was no surprise when she, like her mother, was sorted into Ravenclaw.
In her teens, Isobel continued to develop and grow into a beautiful young lady. She was quite the adventurer and loved learning and experiencing new things. She thrived in school and made many friends along the way. One of the best friends she had was her brother Joseph. The two were very close their whole lives, and that never changed. They understood each other and would always listen and support the other. Joseph and Isobel would go on a great many adventures together. There was never a dull moment in her life, Isobel made sure of it.
Soon after Joseph was wed to Diana, Isobel was set up with Cormag Macmillan. Of course, her mother would never let her marry into anything less than a elite pure-blood family. Isobel was quite happy with her husband, and they got along rather well. It seemed like a happily ever after, especially when she became heavy with child. However, it didn't end all that happily for her brother.
When Isobel was pregnant with her second child, she gained word that Joseph had been murdered on a hunting trip. Devastated and heartbroken, Isobel clung dearly to her remaining family for support. The pain of losing her brother was comparable to death itself. The birth of her daughter finally brought light and happiness back into her life.
When she was finally able to bring her wits about her, Isobel helped and supported Diana and little Joseph as much as she and her family could. She made sure she was present in their lives as much as possible without neglecting her own. Motherhood for Isobel was a dream come true. She never knew such a love was possible as that of a mother and child. She taught her children, not just lessons from scrolls, but real life lessons about the great world about them.
While she taught her children well, she grew to love teaching just about as much as she loved learning. She decided she wanted to pursue a career as a professor at Hogwarts, and is currently working towards that goal.
