Rebekah Parkinson
PERSONALITY Boggart: Her dead husband's body Mirror of Erised: Her husband alive and healthy, with the pair of them surrounded by money and wealthy friends Patronus: Swan - Although unable to conjure a patronus, were she able to her strongest memory would have been of her and her husband, holidaying in Belize Conceited, self-centered, and egotistical are all terms one could use to aptly describe Rebekah Parkinson. She is a vain woman, more concerned with her looks and happiness than that of the health and well being of her own children who she deemed a mistake in having. At the peak of her social life, Rebekah was very outgoing, always bragging about the trips she and her husband had recently taken or the fur coat she'd received "just because". She wanted everyone to know who she was and that she was fabulous. Her highest ambition was climbing the social ladder with her husband, but since his death she has been absent from anything adjacent to high society. HISTORY Mother: Atania Wilkes nee Rowle, Slytherin, Pureblood Father: Derri Wilkes, Slytherin, Pureblood Siblings: Oskar Wilkes, Slytherin, Pureblood Partners: Heath Parkinson, 44 at time of death, Slytherin, Pureblood Others: Euphadora Parkinson, daughter, 21, Slytherin, Pureblood; Theon Parkinson, son, 16 at time of death, Slytherin, Pureblood; Rose Wilkes, sister-in-law, Pureblood; Misty Catarina Tanith Burke, niece, Slytherin, Pureblood; Brock Wilkes, nephew, Pureblood Heath and Rebekah fell in love at an early age. They dated throughout their teenage years and married promptly after Rebekah graduated. The couple was madly in love and their only focus was on each other and their journey up the social ladder. The Parkinsons were one of the ‘Sacred Twenty-Eight’, a family of only the purist wizarding blood in all of Britain. Their ideals of blood supremacy were en vogue at the time of their formative years and when they expectantly became pregnant they passed on their beliefs to their daughter, Euphadora, then their son, Theon. Dora and Theon spent much of their formative years with their nanny, allowing Rebekah and Heath to spend their time doting on each other and mingling with those above their station. The Parkinsons were very much an upper-middle class family, they had a bit of excess money but not nearly as much as their lifestyle seemed to imply. Their children wanted for nothing but love and affection, the two things their parents refused to give them. When their daughter was 16, she dramatically fell into a coma, attempting to ruin the holiday Rebekah and Heath had been planning in Spain. They did not play into her hysterics and left the servants to care for their daughter upon her release from hospital. It was one of many of Dora's attempts to gain her parents' attention but Rebekah didn't care to indulge the girl in such hysterics. The Parkinsons had their own life to be getting on with, including a holiday to New Zealand the following summer. While on holiday, the Parkinsons had been kidnapped and held inside a shipping container for over a fortnight, given only a single meal to share between them each day. After two weeks together, Rebekah was blindfolded and removed from their makeshift cell. She was taken to a hotel room in Manchester. Heath remained in the shipping container but the meals stopped coming. He died of starvation on the same day his terrified wife returned home. The MLE were called, an investigation was opened, and the kidnapping and murder was eventually blamed on a former client of Heath’s. The investigation discovered that the money the Parkinsons had used to take so many lavish holidays (all without their children) had been laundered and stolen from Heath’s clients. The murder was judged to be retaliation for his crimes. Dora and Theon returned to school that September in shock and disbelief. Theon seemed to cope better than Dora, who had sunken into one of her episodes of melancholy and began cutting herself. By the time the children returned home for Christmas holiday they were greeted with another shocking surprise. The family was bankrupt. Rebekah was selling their home and renting a small flat on the other side of town, in which there was only room enough for herself and Theon. As Dora was an adult, she would be expected to get a job following her graduation from Hogwarts and find her own place to live. A week later, on Christmas Eve, Theon got into a fight with a group of boys as he headed towards a Christmas party where Rebekah and Dora had already been for a while, socializing and putting on a show for all the other pureblood families feigning success despite the horrific tragedies the family had so recently faced. When several hours had passed and Theon had not arrived at the party, Dora set off looking for him while Rebekah, unconcerned, continued her attempt at being the center of the party. Dora found Theon lying in the snow, bloodied and dying. She rushed him to the hospital but it was too late. Theon had died of his injuries, only five months after his father’s death. Rebekah Parkinson, upon being notified at the hospital of her son’s passing broke into tears. Since then, Rebekah has kept a relatively low profile. She has had several jobs over the years in an attempt to keep herself afloat financially, but her aim is to find a new husband to replace the love of her life. She is not looking for love this time around, but the comforts Heath had provided her in their marriage; a large manor, servants, wealth, and respect.
