The Character's Background

1) Give a description of your character's personality. It must be at least two paragraphs long, seven sentences each.

2) Write about the history of your character. How did they grow up? Is there an incident that made them the way they are? It must be at least three paragraphs long, seven sentences each. After his magic appeared, Fredrick started to realize that there was something else different about him. He seemed to always know what people were thinking, even if he didn't want to know. At first it didn't bother him too much because he learned to drown out the noise, but once him and his siblings got older and more thoughts were going through their heads it became troublesome for the young boy.

He told his parents about it one night after dinner when he broke into tears because of hearing so many thoughts it physically hurt him. His parents took him to a close friend who was also a clairvoyant that helped Fredrick learn how to control his ability. At first it was very difficult and Fredrick didn't want to practice, but he also didn't want to pain to come back so he kept going.

Right when he went off to Ilvermorny he finally was able to grasp the control he needed to turn down his abilities, not exactly off, but it helped the young boy a lot in school. Being able to drown out the thoughts around him made it so he didn't have mental breakdowns like he once did, and during the summers he was able to practice and hone his abilities.

By the time he was 14, Fredrick was able to get a good grip on his abilities which allowed him to turn it off or not use it when he didn't want to. He was also able to keep it hidden easier, and it allowed him to finally have peace of mind. He didn't like to use his ability on people in the first place because it felt like an invasion of privacy, and people's brains weren't the best to dig around in in the first place.

Freddie tries not to use his abilities on those close to him, feeling that in invades privacy and destroys a layer of trust. He's also scared to use his abilities because he doesn't want someone bad to find out and capture him or use it against him. He also doesn't want the ministry to find out, as he knows that they quite like to have clairvoyants on their side 3) Write about your character's appearance. What do they look like?
