Caoimhe Foley

Biography
Born on January 17, 1993 in Attleboro, Massachusetts, Felicity Andrea O’Reilly was the named signed on her birth certificate. However, due to her mother (a squib by the name of Kathleen O’Reilly) dying during childbirth and her father being no more than a name, she was placed into No-Maj foster care until the age of five. An incident at the home she was at drew the attention of Marjorie Williams, who adopted her and renamed her Caoimhe Mae Williams, her first and second names being a tribute to Marjorie’s late fiancé, Declan Albers.

As she got older, her Aunt (Marjorie) recognized that Caoimhe had an affinity for plants and potions. Opting to homeschool Caoimhe, she focused more of Caoimhe’s attention towards Gaelic magic rather than the typical Latin magic. Around the age of ten, however, Caoimhe was introduced to Aster and Theo Starling, quickly becoming friends with the older girl. However, when she was 13, an incident involving risky mind-magic wiped her memories of Aster (later known as Astoria Starling, aka her fiancée), though she recognized Theo after his miraculous return from the dead over a decade after the incident. This incident cased her core to surge and become over protective, which resulted in the memory loss.

In between the incident happening and Theo “dying”, another incident happened. she had stumbled across a pair of undercover Unspeakables working to get information out of a rat in the Sídhe, and was subsequently Imperius’d and Obliviated of the event. This caused a secondary surge in her core.

After Theo “died”, Caoimhe began working for the Sídhe, a mafia that her Aunt had connections to, in order to help keep Marjorie’s shop above water, as well as being manipulated into creating various potions and poison for Donovan. From there, Caoimhe became more heavily in the mafia scene, eventually becoming a merc for hire as well as a black market potions dealer. By the time she was 17, she had met Ian Foley, quickly falling into a heavily manipulative and toxic relationships with him. Because of Ian, she was addicted to several drugs, including but not limited to glitter berries, cocaine, and dreamless sleep as well as being well on her way to becoming an alcoholic. Not long after her 18th birthday, Caoimhe and Ian got married after realizing she was pregnant. She gave birth on November 27th, 2011, to Kirstie Decla Foley.

Four years passed, and in 2015, everything in Caoimhe’s life collapsed. Though her memories were later found to be altered and surpressed, she witnessed Ian kill their daughter while under the Imperius curse. This caused a blood bath, in which Caoimhe only barely escaped with her life, fleeing to England and joining the Forgotten.
