History`` Devin's mother came from a family with seven children. She was right in the middle of them all, with three younger and three older siblings. Though niether of her parents were particularily rich, they managed to support them all up until the oldest was ready for college. Though expensive, and requiring many sacrifices, the three oldest made it through without any problem. Once Devin's mother was eighteen she made a descision to not make her parents forfeit their money, and would stay around for a bit more to help out the family.
His father, on the other hand, came from a high class family with more money than needed to be successful. If they wanted to they could send each one of Devin's mother's siblings to college and have enough left over to buy a decent sized house and new furniture. Unlike the other family, they had only one child. He had gone to a private school all his life, and by high school he despised the harsh teachings with a passion. He became what would be considered a complete rebel in the private academies, but average in the public-school world. Due to grades that stooped at 'low' levels he attended a college that his parents didn't approve of, one that was much lower than their standards. He ended up going to the same college as Devin's mother's oldest brother. The two became great friends, and once the brother invited him to stay with him back at home one summer.
That summer Devin's mother and father fell in love, five monthes later they were married. Almost a year after that Devin's oldest brother Spencer was born. With the mix of backgrounds he ended up attending a higher-class public school, one that got good reviews and had a high percentage of intellegent students thanks to gifted teachers. Without doubt Spencer continued the tradition of being very successful, both with school and in many forms of sports, always the star player even from an early age. Devin had been jealous of it ever since he was old enough to understand how much pride his parents took in his brother. The two other older siblings, who also proved to be excellent achievers in their own ways, along with the parents setting high examples made it extremely difficult to fulfill what exactly they wanted.
His father, in particular, tended to explain how Devin was spiralling downward, way further down than the bar. He always said things about the three brothers being better. Better grades, more athletic, just better. And those sports teams, oh how Devin despised the sports teams. His mother never really talked down to him, but she never backed him up on anything. Truthfully, they never really spoke. The fact that he had a bad relationship with his father and brothers, but no relationship with his mother turned out to be worse than having a terrible one with everyone. He felt neglected.
Before he actually recieved the Hogwarts letter, there had been a few cases in which Devin had come across an ability unknown to muggles. He had been angry, his father's naggings and corrections were most likely what caused that large temper of his. It was early morning, his father had just placed a slice of bread in a toaster. He was telling Devin that there was no point in actually going to school, as he wasn't learning anything anyways. Devin was about to break into a yell when the slice of bread flew out of the toaster, charred and smoking. Everyone just assumed it was a malfunctioning circuit, and never really looked into it.
There had been a second magical encounter, Devin's active imagination had scared him when walking alone through an empty park at night. The lampposts suddenly grew brighter, as if trying to calm him down. The light filled up most all of the paths he needed to travel home. Again, Devin just thought of it as nothing, after all, his mind could really play tricks on him.
It was when he recieved his Hogwarts letter, the small paper that let him know he was a wizard, that Devin began to gain his confidence. At first, it did scare him, the thought of actually using magic like that of the magic shows. Only it was real. He thought of himself as a freak, and segregated himself, only to get more comfortable with who he was. Once he was invited to the school Dev fit in great, even had a bit of fun in the process. Now that he found someplace where he wasn't different, or insuperior. The rest is history.
