As the widow of a piltovian scientist, Dorothy was left with no other choice than to leave her home together with her 3 children to escape the grasp of her husband's murderers. Fearing exploitation by the Noxians for her botanic and medical knowledge and suspecting zaunite participation in her husband's death, Dorothy decided to start a new life in Demacia. She worked as a nurse in a small village, patching up injured demacian soldiers. Her expertise brought her the title "wonder nurse" since her magic involving techniques healed even the most critically wounded. Knowing full well that her magical abilities were despised in all over Demacia, Dorothy strictly conducted her practices on unconscious patients.

Despite her best efforts in hiding her magical talent, she was exposed by other jealous and sceptic nurses. Having her children taken away from her for her treasonous activities and facing an execution, Dorothy attempted escaping the verdict made by radical demacians, who relentlessly pursued her through a forest and shot her in a tragic chase. Left to rot in a puddle of mud, Dorothy was revived by the mercy of the forest. Invoking curses on her previously treated patients, Dorothy transformed them into wooden beasts to assist her in freeing her children from their prison-like quarters.

Storming into the village, seeking the place where she had been held as a prisoner, Dorothy demanded for her children to be released. Terrified guards directed her to another housing, where her children had been locked away. Charging towards the Orphanage, Dorothy furiously invaded the building with nothing able to block her path. To her dismay, her children already had been punished, their unconscious bodies laying on the floor. The deepest sorrow arose in Dorothy, realizing children had died because of her and she had been too late to save them.

Unable to let go of her kids, Dorothy brought their bodies to the forest. All her attempts to bring her children back to life failed, she kneelingly begged the forest to revive them like she was. But it was too late. Dorothy buried them, watching over their graves. Feeling the forest embrace their corpses, she began to sense their presence all around her.

Believing her children were adopted by the forest and anticipating revenge by Demacians, a bitter Dorothy is lurking in the woods, willing to do anything to protect her new home and sacrificing ill-minded intruders for a glimpse of her children's spirits.
