Au Lore
One of the ways the Most Noble and Ancient house of Black keeps their royal power above the Ministry of Magic, is that royal children don’t have the trace. This keeps all their magic in general hidden from the Ministry as the trace can detect any magic cast near kids who have it.
A note about blood status in my au
So basically in canon pure-bloods are defined as are wizards whose parents are either pure-blood or half-blood and whose grandparents are either pure-blood or half-blood. So I surmised that muggle-borns must be wizards whose parents are muggles and whose grandparents are either muggles or squibs.
Family names are passed through the male line, so a muggle-born who had a squib ancestor could be born into a pure-blood family and have a pure-blood family name. So in other words, a pure-blood family could produce a muggle-born, known as a bluemud.
In the case of Pegasus and Hugo, Pegasus is a squib born into a pure-blood family, the Black family. Hugo legally took Pegasus’s last name, Black, so her family status passed to their sons who were muggles.
This is how Hermione who had muggle parents but a squib for a grandparent can be both a muggle-born and a member of the House of Black.
Some of this is outdated and needs to be updated!
Bellatrix Pegasus Black XV is the squib daughter of Pollux Betelgeuse Black XIII. She and her twin brother Cygnus were born in 1928. After the Black family threw her out for being a squib, she changed her name to Beatrice Pegasus Granger. Her best friend was a muggle named Hubert Hugh Hughes, who taught her about the muggle world. She taught Hugo about magic and royalty. Several years later she started going by her middle name, Pegasus.
They fell in love, got married, and Hugo took Pegasus’s last name. Pegasus and Hugo became mages and wanted to live in the wizarding world, but mages were illegal preventing them from living normal life. Their anger at this injustice led them to robbing the Ministry of Magic several times.
After Pegasus’ older sister, Walburga, attempted to murder Pegasus and Hugo, they returned to the muggle world. They moved back to Hugo’s birth town of Pentref Coedwig (Welsh for Forest Village) in North Wales.
The only one of Pegasus’ siblings who didn’t disown her was her younger brother Alphard. Alphard did not believe in blood supremacy and was hiding his marriage to Minerva McGonagall from most of his family. Pegasus and Hugo allowed Alphard and Minerva to build a semi-independent flat in their attic. Minerva lived there during the summer and Alphard to keep their marriage hidden bounced between different relatives’ houses.
After moving back to Pentref Coedwig, Pegasus and Hugo had three sons: Antigonus in 1959, Florizel in 1961, and Dogberry in 1963. Pegasus and Hugo told their sons about magic and when they turned eleven started teaching them how to use enchanted items and brew potions.
When Florizel was fourteen he was injured and while recovering he developed an interest in healing. He sought to have dual training in both muggle medical school and as a wizarding healer apprentice. He decided dentistry was the most interesting medical profession.
A year or so later, Alphard broke ties with most of his family and permanently moved in with Pegasus and Hugo.
While Antigonus was dating Elen Awbrey, they decided to set Florizel up with her cousin Jean Awbrey, who was also interested in becoming a dentist. Florizel and Jean hit it off and started dating. They made plans to attend the same university so they would stay together in college.
The spring before they started college, Jean discovered that she was pregnant. Florizel and Jean married in the summer. In September 1979, Jean delivered her daughter, Hermione. Pegasus, Hugo, Alphard, and Minerva offered to help raise her so Florizel and Jean could stay in university. Florizel and Jean named Alphard and Minerva as Hermione’s godparents.
Antigonus and Elen married. Their first son, Dromio was born in 1982. Both Florizel and Antigonus decided that not telling their wives about magic was the best idea. Their primary reasons for not explaining the wizarding world were the civil war, the fact that their parents were legendary criminals, and that their first cousin, Bellatrix was murdering any relatives she deemed un-pure.
Florizel studied magical healing during summers between college. After finishing medical school, Florizel and Jean set up a dentistry clinic in the city of Bangor in North Wales. Hermione now lived mostly with her parents but still stayed with her grandparents for part of the summer. In October 1985, Florizel and Jean’s second daughter, Hero, was born.
Antigonus and Elen’s second son, Lysander, was born in 1986. Four years later, Elen died after several months of battling illness. Grief-stricken, Antigonus moved to France.
In November 1990, Florizel and Jean’s son, Horatio, was born.
When Hermione received her Hogwarts letter, she didn’t know anything about magic or her family’s connections to the magical world.
Minerva told about magic and the wizarding world; however, she didn’t mention the Granger family ties to the magical world. Additionally, Minerva explained that she is also a witch, but Hermione should not tell anyone, especially Florizel, Jean, and the rest of her family and friends. Minerva also informs Hermione that she is a professor at Hogwarts and it would be best if they pretended not to know each other.
Dromio, in France, received his Beauxbatons letter two years later. While at Beauxbatons, was bullied by the other students for being both British and being the smartest in his year.
Hero and Horatio were staying with Pegasus and Hugo in 1997 when Hermione modified their parents’ memories. Hermione wrote some letters to the rest of her family claiming that Florizel and Jean were working for Doctors Without Borders in Africa and that she was in a foreign exchange program in America. Lysander received his Beauxbatons letter that summer. Hero would have gotten her Hogwarts letter, but Snape’s Hogwarts didn’t admit muggle-borns.
Alphard got Hero a wand from a French wand-maker and her family started to teach her basic spells. While at Beauxbatons, Lysander became friends with Gabrielle Delacour.
Around November, Florizel and Jean got their memories back and returned to Great Britain. Florizel started helping his family fight in the war but still refrained from telling Jean anything. The turmoil from moving back into their house and reestablishing their dentistry clinic meant that Hero and Horatio were still living with their grandparents. Florizel believed they were safer with Pegasus and Hugo, anyway.
In March 1998, the Death Eaters launched an attack on Beauxbatons. Dromio broke from his class during the evacuation to warn Lysander and Gabrielle who were studying in an empty room. Dromio retrieved them but couldn’t rejoin the other students before Bellatrix cornered them. She injured all three kids before the teachers rescued them. Dromio had the worst injuries, Gabrielle had the least severe injuries.
The school believed that the primary targets of the attack were Dromio and Lysander and that the best way to protect the rest of the students was to expel them. Antigonus and his sons moved back to Wales and lived with Pegasus and Hugo.
Pegasus, Hugo, Alphard, Antigonus, Florizel, and Dogberry all fought at the battle of Hogwarts.

When a wizarding monarch dies, the order of succession is as follows: firstly, their named heir; secondly, the monarch’s oldest eligible descendent; and finally oldest eligible member of the royal family. Eligibility requirements are one: being of age (17 or older), two: not being a past monarch who lost the throne in a challenge, and three: being still alive (ghosts and portraits cannot be the current monarch)
When Bellatrix and Voldemort died, their daughter, Delphi, was too young, and Pollux had already been king and lost the throne in a challenge making him ineligible. As a result, the line of succession passed to Pegasus, who was the oldest royal remaining after Pollux. Her younger, twin brother, Cygnus believed that squibs were unable to inherit the throne and that therefore he was the rightful king. At this time, a majority of wizarding Great Britain was unaware that Pegasus and Hugo were even alive and believed Cygnus was the rightful monarch.
The Order of the Phoenix was not thrilled with the sort of king Cygnus was shaping up to be. He pardoned several Death Eaters, including Dolores Umbridge, his school-hood friend, Lucius Malfoy, his son-in-law, and Corban Yaxley, his nephew by marriage. He also appointed Yaxley one of the temporary Ministers of Magic, the other two being Kingsley Shacklebolt, who was appointed by the Order and Cornelius Fudge who was appointed by the Wizengamot. After the battle at the Ministry, Fudge technically quit before he was forced to resign, so he was still eligible to become Minister again. Cygnus wanted Yaxley to be the named the full Minister of Magic.
Lucius tried to convince Cygnus, that with the Black family seemingly dying out, a peaceful transfer of power to a new royal family, say the Malfoys, would be in the best interest of the wizarding world. Cygnus seeing the threat to his power behind Lucius’ ideas, convinced his daughter, Andromeda to kill him. He feigned a lack of involvement in the plot after Lucius’ death.
Amidst the chaos, Pegasus and Hugo reappeared, stating her claim to throne. The Orange Pips, the group Pegasus, Hugo, and Alphard had formed durning the first wizarding war to oppose the Death Eaters, unanimously supported them. They were later joined by the Order of the Phoenix and Dumbledore’s Army. Eventually, Cygnus was forced to recede his claim and acknowledge Pegasus and Hugo as the rightful Queen and King. Pegasus and Hugo named their middle son Florizel and this wife Jean as their heirs.
Ok so I recently had a silly idea pop in my head. Basically there are amateur Quidditch leagues, such as, the semi-professional league, the casual league, the little league, the over 75 league, and the anarchy league.
The rules of the anarchy league are simple:
Don’t deliberately try to kill members of the opposing team
Don’t deliberately injure any member of the audience even if they are rooting for the other team, unless they are attacking you
No living animals can be used instead of brooms
Destroying the snitch counts as the other team catching it
No more than 10 players per team
Every team must have a seeker, keeper, chaser, and beater
No player can fly more than half a mile from the pitch
Regular Quidditch time out rules still apply (captain can call time outs at any time, 2 hours timeouts allowed after 12 hours of play)
That’s it. All sorts of things that would be considered fouls in the other leagues are fair game in the anarchy league. It has the highest injury rate of any amateur or professional league but the players insist it’s far more fun than any other league.
Also, one summer Oliver Wood joined a casual league team because they let underage wizards join with parents permission. He was kicked off the team a week later for “completely missing the point of the casual league”.
