the eldest of the five tonks children, edward β most often called ted β was born on september 4th in 1953 to james tonks and his wife ivy. his parents were muggles, living in the welsh countryside on a farm that had been in james' family for generations. ted's younger siblings are, in birth order: william, two years younger than ted; anne, a year younger than will; mary, two years younger than anne; and elizabeth, four years younger than mary. shortly after beth was born, ivy left james and all of her children. ted hasn't spoken to his mother since he was ten.Β
ted showed signs of magic from a very early age, able to change his appearance in slight ways from the time he was in primary school. he received his hogwarts letter and a visit from minerva mcgonagall shortly before his twelfth birthday, who explained that he was a wizard and also, apparently, a metamorphigus. he started attending hogwarts in september of 1965 and was sorted into hufflepuff house. three years after he started school, his sister anne also began attending hogwarts, being sorted into ravenclaw; and two years after that, another of his sisters, mary, also started school and was sorted into hufflepuff.
they spent their formative years helping to take care of their siblings and, to be perfectly honest, never really stopped taking care of people. younger people, older people, people his own age; he'd take care of them all, if they'd let him. after school, he became a healer at st. mungo's with a specialization in curse based injuries β he never did quite get over that need to help people, as many as possible, and he probably never would. besides, the order needed a healer or two, with everything they've got going on. ted has done his best to keep his younger siblings out of the war; even going so far as convincing them back to cardiff to be with their father. they're not sure it's entirely worked, but they're trying their best to keep their siblings as far from the fighting as possible. he, on the other hand, doesn't exactly have a choice.Β
