Analysis
Mrs. Rowling, across a whole series of Twitter comments documented in the footnotes of the Wiki Aricle written about Nagini, reveals that she was once fully human, and that a maledictus is a human female suffering from a type of hereditary magical curse that causes them to, over time, irrevocably transform into an animal.1 Assuming these comments, and the related material from other [teriary sources] is taken as canonical, we are left with an information gap - who, precisely, was she before she became Riddle’s familiar and horcrux?
