Dillon Walsh

Biography & Background Not everything was perfect in the Walsh family, though. Bill had problems with alcohol which began to spiral out of control while Dillon was a toddler. Oftentimes, Bill would come home well after midnight, if he came home at all, and he spent the vast majority of his money on alcohol and gambling. Amy tried to confront him several times but nothing happened. She threatened to leave, but even this didn't work, and eventually she had no choice but to make good on her threats. Amy took Dillon and they moved back to Ireland. At first, they lived with Amy's parents, but eventually Amy got a steady job and they were able to live on their own. Amy, however, spent a lot of time working, so Dillon spent many hours of the day during his formative years with his grandparents, whom he grew to call Nana and Pops.

Dillon's first sign of magic showed when he was eight years old. Amy was forced to break the hard news to Dillon that, after a short battle with cancer, Nana had passed away. He was old enough to understand what that went, and he locked himself in his room. His mother left him alone until she heard a loud bang. She burst into the room to find a bookshelf tipped over, and with Dillon just as startled as she. She tried to comfort Dillon and explain to him that he couldn't react to the news with anger, but Dillon insisted that it had happened on its own. Little did they know that it was an early sign of Dillon's magic. A few years later, a representative from Hogwarts showed up at their house to extend an invitation to him to attend the magical school. Amy was happy for her son, and after saying goodbye to his mother and grandfather, he went to Hogwarts.
