cirilla was born to the renowned damocles belby and his wife rosemeri figarello seven years before he would create the wolfsbane potion . his potion , while a godsend to lycans abound wasn't created by sheer good will . see , cirilla has an older sister , sierra , and when she was nine and ciri five cirilla was attacked by a werewolf near the belby estate after she had snuck out at night to catch fireflies . the attack left sierra extremely scarred and since she survived the attack , a werewolf . ciri was too young at the time to know what was going on with her sister , only that there were certain days that sierra would have to go downstairs to the cellar and not be seen again until the next day .

unbeknownst to cirilla , her father , damocles , was creating a potion . his aim was to find a cure for lycanthropy , to give his daughter back a normal life , but his efforts failed . there was no magic powerful enough to do that -- but perhaps there was magic that could help in some way . sierra told her father how she wished she could keep her mind when she turned , and that's when an idea struck him . he could help the werewolves keep their human facilities . prevent the animal from taking control and causing destruction

and with that he succeeded . he created the wolfsbane potion after two long years , his own daughter his willing test subject . as hard as that might be to understand , they had little choice . when he was sure of his creation and the potions success he announced it to the world , setting his name in the history of the wizarding world and giving his daughter something to ease her fears . as ciri grew up she and her sister became very close , and despite her being younger , it was always end up being ciri who stepped in to defend her sister from those who would say hurtful things about her condition . she felt sorrow for her older sister who would wander the estate's grounds on the night of the full moon , alone but with her human mind . how hard that must've been for her . so ciri wanted to do something about that .

with her father's blessing and assistance , she began the process to becoming an animagus so that she could accompany her sister on the nights of the full moon . it was a long process , tiring , and she nearly gave up a few times but she did it . at the age of fourteen she became an animagus . a remarkable feet , but what was even more remarkable was her form . her animagus took on the form of a bear , a fully sized , american brown bear . bigger than she was in her human appearance . for the years in which ciri attended hogwarts alongside her sister she would be with her on the nights of the full moon , keeping her company and keeping to the safe parts of the forbidden forest .

it wasn't much of a surprise that cirilla was sorted into ravenclaw , what was surprising was her interest in and talent for quidditch . she didn't come from a sporty family , and had never shown much interest in it until she arrived there . but she was determined to join the team her second year , as it was full in her first . ciri was incredibly nimble and quick on the broom , her small stature allowing her to remain unseen for just fleeting moments --- but long enough to catch sight of the snitch and grasp it .

she's a member of the potions club as she inherited her father's skills to potion craft , she often makes wolfsbane potions and sends them home to her sister who graduated hogwarts last year . she knows that there's already plenty available to her but she wants to feel helpful .
