Dwayne Prichett was a Gryffindor 3rd year when he began dating Babylonia Warrington, a 2nd year Ravenclaw. During the turbulent times they found a strength
in one another to see them through. It was inevitable that after they graduated and began etching out careers for themselves, that they would promise to
spend the rest of their lives together. After Babylonia began working as full time at St. Mungos and Dwayne got a promotion at the bank to office clerk,
dealing with some of the more awkward customer accounts, he finally proposed to her. They were married not long after and the following year, Babylonia gave
birth to their fraternal twins Silas and Gaia. Silas being the eldest by all of 1 minute.
Their lives were hectic but simple. Weekends usually saw Dwayne take the children off on short camping trips while Babylonia worked. During the week, her
mother Portia Warrington looked after her grandchildren and taught them their reading, writing and arithmetic. Silas hated this time and looked forward to the
camping weekends while Gaia by the age of seven was discovering her love for knickknacks and clothing.
During the summer vacations, the whole family would go camping together. Quiet treks through the Yorkshire moors or in the Scottish highlands or the Welsh valleys.
It was a time that they look back on now and hold dear. On their last camping trip as a family, Dwayne dove in to a lake to help a drowning muggle. The muggle
however in a violent state of panic latched on to Dwayne and pulled him under, both drowning. They stopped taking camping trips for quite some time, until
Silas at the age of twelve found the equipment buried away in their attic and decided he wanted to use it again.
He often goes by himself at the weekends to forestry parks or mountainous regions close to home. It's his own way of reconnecting with his father who he still
misses very dearly. Silas can't wait to turn 17, to learn how to apparate so that he can go anywhere he wants. He learned how to fly at the age of fourteen
but prefers walking, he likes the connection he has to the world around him this way.
By the time himself and Gaia were starting at the JWA, their mother was taking up her position as matron at Hogwarts Infirmary. At fifteen his mother managed
to get him a part-time job working as a porter at St. Mungo's. He doesn't like it much but it is money in his pocket and he prefers having this sense of independence.
