Daughter of Erika Storm and Medgar Storm. Much younger sister of Wolfgang Storm and Valeria Storm. Attended Durmstrang as an Oberteil.
Married fellow Durmstrang alum Torolf Gundersen when he was a politician, though he now teaches at the school.
Has two children Brigit Gundersen and Thorben Gundersen.
Shortly after her graduation met Torolf Gundersen and formed a relationship. He did not consider her the most formidable witch, though pretty and easy going. Aloisia understood her place in the world and her duties as a wife to a politician.
Within a year of meeting, in 1972 the two were wed and she moved into his home in Oslo. The wedding was a small, intimate affair. Torolf was not a particularly attentive husband. He went through the motions as was expected of him. But all he cared about was his political career.
Ten years into their marriage - in 1982 - the two finally had their first child. A little girl named Brigit. Torolf was disappointed not to have a son, and had little to do with the life of his daughter. Aloisia spoiled her.
Torolf ascended to the upper echelon of wizarding government in Norway. He was an influential man who had a loud voice. His staunch, purist views- though controversial- were not unsupported by the majority... Especially considering the number of Durmstrang graduates. He began to push anti-muggle legislation. Surprisingly, some of it managed to pass. Torolf was quickly viewed as an enemy of muggle/muggle-born kind.
With the aid of fertility potions and an extra effort on his part, Aloisia became pregnant again. This pregnancy was hard her, and it required more attention from him. Torolf's political career suffered as he had less time to spend working. Ensuring the birth of healthy offspring was more important- especially with there being a chance of a son.
Torolf was not disappointed. In 1995, a son was finally born. Following family tradition, his son's name became Thorben. Too many generations had followed the ritual for Torolf to abandon it- especially since his father was still alive.
Torolf's interest in his family exponentially increased. His daughter, Brigit, was 13 when her little brother was born. And the girl quickly became resentful of the fact her brother was the reason her father started giving a damn... Or at least pretending to. Torolf, however, was clueless to her resentment. He just assumed that his wife and daughter would be glad to have him home more often.
Following the death of his father, Torolf, along with his family, moved into the Gundersen estate in rural Norway. This was also around the time that he was put in charge of one of the most influential governing bodies of Norway. But the happiness of his successful political career and the fact his son was turning out to be a miniature version of himself would not be entirely long lasting.
Torolf- who had never been a particularly faithful husband- would cross the wrong woman. Just two years after moving into he family home, coming into possession of the family fortune, and gaining such an important seat- scandal broke loose. The secretary he'd been sleeping with became enraged when he refused to leave his family to be with her. And after he fired her- she went public with all of his dirty secrets. An investigation was launched, and his political career was ruined.
Though they found no solid proof of her claims- and it was a he-said she-said argument, he was stripped of his position. The people lost faith in his capabilities. His colleagues and peers lost much respect, and those he'd had under his thumb finally had a way out.
His political career was over. He was just glad his father had not lived to see his name shamed. Which left him unemployed... And even though he did not need the money, spending so much time at home with his wife and young son left him short tempered. His wife was angry that his affairs had become so public- her own reputation tarnished in the meantime. So he needed a new job- something to keep him out of the house.
Torolf found himself becoming an educator. He took a position at Durmstrang teaching Intangibles. Given his political career and his knowledge of mythology being what it was, it seemed a good fit.
