 * Teddy Hawkins is Soft. As. Muck. All the years his father has been forcing masculinity on him has proved absolutely useless, because Teddy is the complete opposite of the tough and stoic person he was supposed to become - and that's the one thing he hates about himself. Being a disappointment to your family isn't anybody's dream, even if your family is nothing to be proud of in the first place, and Teddy has suffered his fair share of ridicule from his father. As a child, if he fell over and cried, he'd be yelled at for being such a wuss. If he'd gotten into a fight with someone from school, he'd be mocked for allowing himself to be injured, or even for making himself look weak enough to fight. You'd think that after this treatment, the product would be a stoic young man who dared not to show any emotions. Not Teddy. He's still an emotional little sap, the type to cry and blush at anything then violently deny it, and now he's out of his father's eye for months at a time, he doesn't have to worry about what he'll think. What he doesn't know won't hurt him.


 * His father's words may not have had an impact on Teddy's emotions, but they definitely had an impact on Teddy's thoughts towards emotions. He hates crying, hates being seen crying, and his father's thoughts come out of his mouth at the sight of it - it's weak. The years of manipulation have conditioned Teddy to think that any display of so-called "non-manly" emotion is weak, which just adds to how much he wishes he wasn't such a wimp.


 * Teddy's emotions don't just show in how easy it is to make him well up. He's fiercely caring about his friends, and the reality is that he's not a wimp. In fact, he's immensely brave - a true Gryffindor at heart. At the first sign of danger, he'll always be the one who walks head-first into it; not because he's particularly reckless or thrill-seeking, but because he'd rather it be him who gets hurt rather than any of his friends. His loyalty, once obtained, is virtually unwavering, and his heart is just so big that he'd do absolutely anything for the people he cares about.


 * He's a complete extrovert, always loving to meet new people and have fun, and although sometimes he can take it a little too far, he'll apologise afterwards. He's clever, too - damn, he's clever. It's a trait he often tends to hide, because he hates intelligent pricks who always think they're better than everyone else, and he doesn't really want to turn into that.

7) Write about the history of your character. History must be at least two paragraphs long. How did they grow up? Is there an incident that made them the way they are? etc. (Again, you can copy this onto your character page later!)


 * Born near the spotless Albert Docks of Liverpool, Teddy should have been brought up like any normal little boy. In some ways, he was - he had both his parents, a house, food on the table and clothes on his back. He'd been introduced to the nicer side of Liverpool; the side the tourists see, not the rough streets riddled with gangs and pickpockets which the town is stereotypically known as. His parents played with him, hugged him when he cried, brought him up as well as any parents should. His brightness became clear straight away - what with all the cultures that visit Liverpool, by the time he was six Teddy could speak several basic phrases in many different languages - and he adored exploring his hometown. He got lost quite a bit, but always found his way home in the end.


 * It shatters any little boy to find out his dad isn't the immortal hero they picture them as, and Teddy found this out quite quickly when he was about seven. In fact, he found out many aspects of his life weren't as good as he thought they were when he was around that age. His nice home by the docks slowly became the dingy little flat above a fish-and-chip shop it really was, only rented out by the owner because his business was swiftly going under. His two loving parents turned out to by dole scroungers, perfectly able-bodied but refusing jobs just so they could stay on the benefits system, most of which was spent at the pubs. There were no books in the flat, nothing particularly educational - in fact, Teddy mostly taught himself to read from the subtitles on the television.


 * A bright, developing brain in a tedious, unstimulating environment will never produce a positive outcome. Bored out of his brains, Teddy was only young when he started making friends at primary school with kids from the rougher side of Liverpool, who introduced him to the true drunkenness and violence after the sun goes down and the gangs emerge. He completed his first shoplift at nine years old, and had his first can of beer at ten.


 * He was a bit of a late bloomer when it came to magic, but Teddy can boast that his first usage of magical powers was literally saving someone's life. He was only ten years old when he snuck out the flat and tried to run to a friend's house - a run down apartment on a council estate - when he came across an alleyway where loud, panicked screams were echoing from. Feeling about twenty years his senior, Teddy walked down the alley, only to come across a young woman being robbed by a guy clad in a balaclava and gripping a gun. The energy surged through Teddy, but he didn't fling himself in front of the bullet like an idiot - instead, he found himself sending the gun flying far away through the air, without laying a finger on it. He disappeared into the shadows before he could be seen, and his Hogwarts letter arrived on his eleventh birthday. His parents were a little alarmed, mind you.

8) Write about your character's appearance. How do they look like? Are you planning on using a certain model for your character? If you already have a picture in mind, you can put it here!


 * There's only one thing Teddy hates about his appearance - his height. He is tiny. Think about 5'6". Honestly, it's humiliating for a teenage boy. Apart from that, Teddy isn't half good looking - or he would be if he didn't hide it under a baseball cap and Adidas clothes. He may not behave like a chav, but he sure does dress like one... but then again, what's wrong with that? The clothes are cheap and comfy, and it's not like Teddy cares anyway. When he's in decent clothes, however, Teddy is quite a charming looking chap. His hair's a sandy golden brown, eyes a pretty shade of green, and his jawline could cut glass.

9) Are you Pure-Blood, Half-Blood or Muggle-Born? Do you have any notable magical relations? (Remember, you cannot be related to important Harry Potter characters!)


 * Muggleborn.

10) Does your character have any special magical abilities? Or special abilities in general (photographic memory, etc.)? Is he or she of a different magical race, such as veela, vampire, werewolf or the likes? Part or half of that magical race counts! (Remember, you cannot have an "exotic" characters as your first two characters!)


 * Nada.

11) What year is your character in?


 * Fifth.
