Biography
Early life
Penny was born in London, United Kingdom in 1972 or 1973, to a Muggle father[5] and a Muggle-born witch mother.[6] She had a younger sister named Beatrice,[1] born four years after her.[7]
Penny's family spent every summer in the countryside, where she also had a Muggle friend called Scarlett.[1]

Second year
Penny would help Jacob's sibling many times in their search for the Cursed Vaults, including potentially joining them and Bill Weasley in breaking into one at the end of their second year.[10]

In the summer of 1985, a tragedy happened that would change Penny's life. Penny's family were spending their usual summer in the countryside. One night, at a full-moon, Penny and her friend Scarlett went exploring outside the house and found a werewolf.
Ignorant of what the beast was, Scarlett was fascinated by it and wanted to follow it to see where it might go. Penny had her wand ready, but when the werewolf finally saw them, she was at first unable to react, and when she finally did, it was too late already. The werewolf killed Scarlett, resulting in Penny blaming herself for the death of her friend.
