-FAMILY INFORMATION-

Where are they from? : Surrey, England

Describe their past history : Following the end of the Wizarding War, Dudley Dursley and his parents were permitted to come out of hiding. After this, he did more than anybody would have thought possible given how incredibly dull his parents had been. After being spoilt as a child, the idea that Dudley would ever learn how to provide for himself seemed slightly unreasonable. But surprisingly, he managed to get into law school and from there The Law Offices of Fredrickson and Dursley became his reality.

Sometime during this period, he met his wife. By then, he'd sworn off his bullying and was a half decent man. She was petite and blonde, an average 20 something year old. She wasn't particularly exciting, but Dudley took an interest in her. Eventually, after much pestering from Petunia, the two got married. She wasn't a bad wife. She was kind hearted and was content to tend the house and cook dinner, which pleased Dudley. The two had their first son just as Dudley's twenty-first birthday passed. They had another son, Trevor, two years later.

At this point, Dudley was rather bored with his wife. With two young boys, Alice often didn't have time for Dudley. He hadn't planned on getting another woman pregnant, but things happen. When the young Mary Swan told him of the baby she was expecting, he'd immediately written her a check to take care of it. Knowing that the baby would be aborted allowed Dudley to continue on with his life. When Mary decided to keep the baby, Dudley rid her from his life. He couldn't have some dumb secretary ruining his marriage and taking his money. He fired Mary from her position and hoped that would be the last he would see of her or her baby. He met his daughter 11 years later when she got her letter to Hogwarts, though he hasn't seen her since.

Dudley moved on with his life and some time after he and Alice had their final baby and only daughter. From the moment she was born it was apparent that Summer Anne Petunia was nothing like her family. While both her brothers had come out wailing, Summer came out silently. This was, of course, a major concern to the doctors, but after extensive testing it appeared there was nothing wrong with the baby.

Everything Summer seemed to do outshined her brothers. She learned to walk earlier and quicker than either of them. When Trevor was learning to write the ABCs, she took on the challenge as well. While Dudley continued to spend the majority of his time at work, Alice had her hands full with Summer, who seemed to get into more mischief than both William and Trevor combined. As Summer grew older she began to look more and more like Lily Evans. This put her in a rather rough spot with her paternal grandparents, Petunia (as much as she tried to stop herself) held a grudge against the little girl who looked so much like her sister. She was bullied by her brothers (though she was too strong to ever tattle on them to mum, instead fighting back and getting into trouble herself) and she only ever saw her father for dinner and special occasions. In fact, Alice was the only one who seemed fond at all of her daughter, but Summer didn't mind. Besides, she got along well enough with her second cousins on the occasions they'd met briefly.

It should have come as no shock when Summer got her letter to Hogwarts. A witch had come to explain everything to the family of muggles, only to find the family of Harry Potter. Summer knew of the Wizarding World from James Potter, who told tales to his muggle cousins during their gatherings, though Summer was the only one who seemed to be entranced by them.

The Wizarding World was a dream to Summer. The fact that it was actually where she belonged made her rotten family not seem quite so bad. She loved them and they'd always be her family, but she no longer had to pretend she didn't care that her brothers wanted to hurt her more than anything and her grandparents absolutely hated her. When Summer arrived on the platform she was followed by her eager mum, distant dad, and grumpy brothers. She recognized the Potters, though she didn't feel she knew them well enough to intrude. She knew Albus would be in her year, but she didn't bother saying hello. He was with a different red head anyways. It wasn't until after his children had boarded the train that Harry recognized Dudley. He said something to his wife before giving them a polite nod. Summer smiled slightly back, noticing her own family were hardly paying attention to the Potters. With that, she said goodbye to the Dursley's, giving a hug to her mum, ready to unlock all of Hogwarts' secrets. 



Who are their parents : Dudley Dursley, Alice Dursley

Do they have any siblings? : William Dursley (born 2002), Trevor Dursley (Born 2004), Eveleen Swan (half sister)

Is their any history of mental illness in their family? : A great-grandmother who had Alzheimer's on her mum's side, other than that nothing but a severe case of Asshole Disorder.

-PERSONAL INFORMATION-

What do they love? : Old vinyl records, black and white movies, her family, kangaroos, the ocean

What do they hate? : Bullies. In every shape and form. She also has a few pet peeves, but nothing worth mentioning.

Have they ever loved anyone in a romantic way? : No

What's their most traumatic memory? : When she was 7 a rather large tree fell on their home virtually destroying it. Summer found herself alone and stuck under a branch that was crushing her arm. It was hours before they managed to get her out and to a hospital, and when she returned home she found all of her things had been broken in the accident. Of course, this was also her first case of accidental magic. When she found one of her favorite dolls destroyed, the little girl began to cry. Surprisingly, the doll fixed itself. Summer never told anybody. She just pretended it hadn't been broken at all.

What's their happiest memory? : When she was around 5, Dudley decided to take the entire family on a trip to the beach. They spent two full days by the ocean, Summer loved it. Dudley even set work aside for a little while and made an effort with his family. She even remembers him pulling her on his lap and helping her and her brothers build a sandcastle. It's this moment that reminds her family is forever.

Describe their personality : Summer has always been able to see the good in other people. This being said, she isn't the kindest girl around. She can be a bit blunt and straight to the point. She can be sarcastic at times, and is hopelessly independent. Nobody can hold her back. Once Summer sets her mind to something, she's going to do it. She's incredibly bright and good with magic. Classes come very easily to her, though she does have to work a little harder at transfiguration. She can be very organized when she wants to be, but she generally isn't. She has this quirk where she'll insert herself into other people's fights, usually on the underdogs side, because she can't stand to see people tearing others down. Summer loves to laugh, though she probably doesn't do it as much as she should.

Describe their personality flaws : Summer is dreadfully open about her opinion. She's honest and doesn't hold back. She's quick to temper and can explode on just about anybody, though she always comes to her senses later and apologizes. Summer isn't very easily amused, often causing her to take matters into her own hands. This has resulted in more than a few detentions, in fact she's nearing Fred and George Weasley's record for detentions. As much as she likes to pretend other people's opinions don't matter to her, they do. Despite appearing very confident, Summer is riddled with insecurities. She makes herself feel useful by devoting her time to helping different causes and people.

What would a stranger's first impression of them be? : One of those teenagers. The type of person you wouldn't really want your own kid hanging around.

How would you, the writer, describe them? : Under an over confident exterior, Summer is incredibly insecure. She strives to please everybody, though this isn't always possible.

Any special magical abilities? : She's been reading up on becoming an animagus, but she hasn't actually started the process.

Any special skills? : She's got a surprising amount of artistic skill. Singing, acting, sketching. She has a knack for it all. Except for painting. She can't quite get painting right.
