Early Childhood
Albert was born to Albert Richard Arendal III and Judith Athena Arendal, in Scotland before the end of the First Wizarding War and two years before the murder of his cousin James Potter and his wife Lily Potter at Godric Hollow. Albert was born a wizard and is the only son of the Arendal family.

The Accident
One night during the summer, a six-year-old Albert roused his younger sister Elisia to get up and play with him for he was unable to sleep with their parents arguing with Mad-Eye Moody. Elisia insisted on sleeping, however Albert eventually convinced her by telling her that Mad-Eye and their parents were talking about custody of their cousin Harry. He peaked her interest and stated he will tell her if she built a snowman with him. His sister voiced her concern about their father being furious if they did. Albert stated her would try and protect her before they sneakily made their way down to the ballroom.The brother and sister made a snowman (that resembled a house-elf) named Abner. The two continued playing until events took a chilling turn when their father discovered them. Startled, Elisia struck Albert on the head while he leapt from one snowy heap to another. Enraged, Elisia's father pushed her mother out of the way to beat her. Mr. Arendal was stopped by Mad-Eye Moody before he could lay a finger on her. Elisia, distraught by what she had done and the fear of her father, the ballroom was covered in thick ice and sharp ice spikes. Marking the beginning of the end of their closness and friendship.

Hogwarts Years (1989-?)
Not much is known about Albert's early years at Hogwarts. It is known he was sorted into his mother's house of Gryffindor and probably became friends with Fred and George Weasley during his First Year. And like the Weasley twins, he became a prankster and joined the twins in their endeavors. It is mentioned after the Dementor attack on the Gryffindor vs Hufflepuff Quidditch match, Albert set off fireworks during a Hufflepuff Quidditch practice.
