Overall history:
Izzy transferred from New Orleans’ NOLA School of Witchcraft and Wizardry where she excelled in potion making, transfiguration, and getting injured. Her parents moved to the States after her mother was transferred to New Orleans as an Italian model for Dolce and Gabbana. Wanting to see more of the world she transferred schools with them while her now thirteen year old sister, Mya, stayed in Italy attending Lucciano. Her parents met at a photo shoot where her dad was serving lunch from his parents’ restaurant during summer vacation their 6th year. Her mother, Natalia, is a Lucciano alum, and her father, Francesco, is a Hogwarts’ graduate. Her older brother, Niccolo left the family trade to become a dragon trainer in New Zealand after studying at Lucciano.
While in New Orleans, Izzy met Maddi Davies who introduced her to American football. Izzy joined the school’s team the same week. The two girls hit it off right away having had the same common enemy, gravity. Izzy fed Maddi’s more wild side, while Maddi helped tame Izzy’s wild energy. Together the girls started a synchronized flying team at their school.
The Ruzzo name is old and powerful and should not be taken likely. They have a hand in almost any respectable trade. While their primary focus is on food and fine wines, they also play a strong part in music and entertainment, fashion, real estate, politics, and law. They have built their name up over the centuries and prefer to keep all of their business in the family. Though of extremely well fortune, the Ruzzos are extremely humble and always mingle with everyday common people. Their doors are always open to those with good intensions.
The Ruzzo residence and vineyard brings visitors from all over the globe. Many families visit annuay such as the Gordon family. Carter and his parents visit the Ruzzo vineyard every spring. The two mothers instantly hit it off and became good friends. Every summer since Izzy was 6 the Gordons would come and visit for a few weeks. Carter and Izzy became partners in crime and would often sneak out with the aid of Nicco to try to escape the parentals’ strict rules. When Izzy transferred to Hogwarts the second half of her sixth year, she had no clue Carter attended the same school let alone was in the same house. Spending most of her time exploring the castle or outside flying Izzy did not discover Carter’s presence till the year was almost over.
Izzy preferred not to get into relationships and had earned the reputation as being unattainable. She just did not feel the need to be in an emotional relationship with anyone. She liked to go out on her own terms and have a good time. If she went out with a guy it was most often just as friends. Forced to grow up in the world of high fashion Izzy did not like other girls’ catty attitudes and the boy’s inflated superficial ego’s. She would often escape to hang out with her brother and his friends. Though she was three years younger than them, they did not mind her company and would often include her in their activities. She was actually a key feature in their little group helping them get a girl’s attention or charming their way out of trouble. They were the ones who taught Izzy how to use her looks to her advantage. She supposed it was because of this that Izzy was more comfortable hanging out and playing with men rather than dating them. Maddi really was her first real girl friend. She gained more girl friends when she transferred over to Hagwarts.
Izzy’s first boyfriend and love was the famous Jude Cade. She almost had a child with him but lost the child after a battle with none other than Bellatrix Lestrange (which she found out many years later). She was somehow made a Ravenclaw Prefect and was a key component of the Fabulous Five: herself, Rendetta Wolfe, Carter Gordon, Jude Cade, and Ted Tonks. When she graduated she started her training for taking over her family’s business and started her own fashion line which is still going, Secrets of the Night. She was asked to occasionally teach some of the courses at Hogwarts when some of the professors wanted to take a sabbatical or were preoccupied with research.
