Etymology[]
Amri is a strange name choice, given that is not only traditionally a male name but is also Swahilian. It means "power, authority, command" in Swahilian. She is very powerful in terms of the School and this could be a reference to the name. She has no middle name and Wallis is aparently the first recorded surname in the whole of Britain and originates from the Norman French word meaning "Foreigner".
Brief History[]
She grew up with her father in Southern America, but her name was chosen by her mother who died shortly after giving birth to her. Her childhood was short and she considers it to have ended when her father died a few months after her seventeenth birthday. Having no other family she knew of, she funded her own education by working as a receptionist. Amri never actually spoke to Ulysses Lewin but met him whilst she was in her first year of university. She did not assist in the forming of the School but had worked there since its creation. A few months ago, she was killed and replaced by Pravaos, the Ainsprid of her pupil Danielle Lewin. This was only discovered after Pravaos used the position to attack and poison Dani.
