• Cousin to @gwenh (only just learned about one another)
• Parents died when she was very little (2-3 years old); went to live in magical orphanage since she had no other known family. Ended up in foster care, went through two different families before she started attending Salem. Then she remained with the same family throughout her school years.
• Did fairly well in school; her best classes being Defense Against the Dark Arts, Charms, Herbology and Potions.
• Started working for the US Ministry right out of school, taking up a job within the Magical Accidents & Catastrophes department. She started out just doing paperwork for the department, though eventually became a member of the Accidental Magical Reversal Squad (age 21).
• Met her husband Ryan Clarke when she was 20 and working for the Ministry. He was a Healer. he was sweet and charming and he quite literally charmed the pants off her. They started dating not long after and then he proposed. The pair married by the time she turned 22 and everything was perfect.
• Things stopped being perfect by the time she was 24. He started to get abusive, but kept it on just a verbal level at first. By the time she was almost 26, however, he 'graduated' to physical abuse. Every time she tried to fight back, it got worse. Eventually, she began to withdraw from everything. She stopped going out with her friends and began to make even more excuses. As a Healer, he healed the wounds he inflicted on her so no one ever saw them. But he could never heal the ones beneath the skin.
• She had tried to seek advice to go about divorcing him, but he always seemed to know and it would end up with her needing to take a day or two off from work to recuperate from her injuries and the pain. Eventually, by the time she was 29, she had had enough and started looking for other ways to get out. If she couldn’t' divorce him, then she would just leave him.
• She began to seek out other positions in other Ministries around the world. She never told her supervisors in the American Ministry though. She didn't want them to know because she was sure Ryan would find out and track her down. She eventually found a job within the British Ministry, but made sure to ask her new boss to keep it secret of her transfer for personal reasons. She promised to explain face to face once she arrived.
• Once she had a new job, Bayleigh began to make plans for her escape. She had to time it all perfectly. Once she was sure she had it all planned out, she informed her new boss when she would arrive to start work and she made a break for it. She took half of the money in the bank before she left and then hopped a Muggle flight to Paris. From there, she went to the French Ministry and took a portkey to London.
• Bayleigh was now in London and starting a new life without the darkness of her married name hanging over her. She reverted back to her maiden name as well. After she started at the British Ministry, she found out that she had family she never knew of. Apparently, there was an Auror with the same surname working for the British Ministry. And after some digging, she learned that her father had a brother.
