A portrait of Beitiris Macmillan, circa 1820. A strange child and an even more eccentric woman, Beitiris first truly came into the spotlight when her father was appointed Chief Warlock of the Wizengamot. Determined to be the subject of gossip for something besides her marriage prospects, Beitiris made waves when she staged one-witch protests complete with flashing orange signs outside the Wizengamot chambers in solidarity with Squibs (an unheard of cause at the time). She would continue to scandalize wixen society when she charmed her way–with hardly any magic–into the graces of Muggle high society, often dining with lords and barons and even foreign Muggle nobility.
She caused a scandal when she rejected a male relation’s, er, rather forcible efforts to seize her inheritance, her actions leading to his bloody death (although most secretly thought he deserved it). Following the scandal, she decided it was better not to marry in case her spouse should try something similar with her ancestral home, a decision she kept to, although she had many lovers.
Beitiris finally passed away in 1910, shortly after the death of her lifetime companion, her pet pig, Harold.
