The Open-Ended Questions

A. Please answer the following questions as elaborately as possible. (Remember, this part is only a requirement for your third to fifteenth character!)

1) What would you consider to be your character's strengths, and your character's weaknesses? Elaborate on your answer.

'''His biggest strength is his ability to bounce back from the negatives. His super great sense of humor is a positive, because everything can be funny to him. He is a bright side guy. His love of a good hug? Sometimes people need a hug, even if they do not admit it. His weaknesses are definitely how his strengths are probably more like negatives to other people. The things that he thinks are great about him sort of rub people (mostly his brothers) the wrong way. In some ways that makes him insecure.'''

2) What goals and objectives has your character set out in their life? Is it to be successful and rich? Is it to find happiness? Why?

'''He does not have "goals" per se, he does want to achieve some level of recognized accomplishment in the majority of his interests. Such as, he would like to draw cartoons for a newspaper or magazine. He would like to make an item of clothing that people would like or use. He would like to take a picture (or draw one) that someone (other than himself) can tell is pretty good. Little things like that.'''

3) What's their ideal way of spending a free day? Why so?

'''His ideal way to spend a day would be with at least one or two of his brothers, maybe all of them depending on how agreeable they are that day. He would cook something, draw something, and definitely take a couple of pictures to remember it all.'''

4) If your character could only keep 5 possessions, what would they be? Why?


 * 1 His hat -- He loves that thing more than life itself
 * 2 His sketchbook -- He is an artist, What is an artist without the tools of the trade?
 * 3 'Keep Calm Surf On' keychain -- His brother Marcel gave it to him on their first trip to Hawaii
 * 4 His brothers -- He does hate them on occasion, but he does not like being away from them for too long
 * 5 Chestnuts -- Everyone needs food to survive, Q probably needs it more

5) What one thing would your character change about the wizarding society? Why?

'''Quincy does not know much about wizarding society other than the secrecy thing, and he does not even get that completely. At least not enough to know What could or should be changed.'''

6) What house does your character want to be in? What house does your character not want to be in? Why?

'''Not Slytherin or Ravenclaw. Maybe Gryffindor, but most likely Hufflepuff. Q is not a motivated, or ambitious enough individual for the strict ideals of either Slytherin or Ravenclaw, even on his most productive day. He is much more suited to Hufflpuff despite their reputation for a stellar work ethic, his affection for human kind might earn him some friends. I feel he is also suited to Gryffindor because of his indomitable spirit, his Peter Pan-esque boyish charm screams Gryffindor.'''

The Character's Background

1) Give a description of your character's personality. Are you noble or sneaky? Arrogant or Humble? Anything about your character that might help the Sorting Hat decide. (Don't worry, you can copy this onto your character page later!) (Remember, personality must be at least one paragraph long for the first two characters, two paragraphs long for the third to eighth characters, and three paragraphs long for the ninth to fifteenth!)

'''Q is a humongous goofball, he thinks everything can be twisted in a way that makes it funny. He understands boundaries, he also does not care about them. He literally laughs in the face of anything scary, or difficult. His brothers use to torment him, because he made it easy for them to do so, he learned to 'crack' his way out of it. With the help of his elder brother Marcel he was able to see the humor in it.

'''The joke may have been on him, but, some time it was funny. He is exceedingly playful, and can quite honestly be down right irritating about it. He only gets mad as a joke, his face is pretty much broken he cannot keep a smile off it. He is good at convincing people of things, and getting what he wants. He sometimes pretends to be angry, and acts in an immature, overly dramatic fashion then laughs about it.'''

'''Q is insanely loving, and profoundly affectionate. He likes hugging people, even strangers. He is the sort of person who would hold a 'Free Hugs' sign, then actually give said hugs away away. He is someone who is always engaged in physical contact. He is a people person, and lover of love. He tends to drape his arms over people's shoulders, lightly tickle their elbows, or literally lean his weight on them.'''

2) Write about the history of your character. 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!) (Remember, history must at least be two paragraphs long for the first two characters, three paragraphs long for the third to eighth character, and four paragraphs long for the ninth to fifteenth character!)

'''Quincy is a one of a kind, not really. He is one of five, that youngest of identical quintuplets, and boys no less. His mother Mélanie supplied a lineage rife with twins or triplets through her grandmother. Genetics were rooting for the Graves family because his father Alvin's ancestry also has a similar theme, only their genetics were capable of filling his family tree with multiples through his grandfather. Q, being the youngest, was considered the runt of the litter. He did not make it easier on himself by being the last to learn how to talk, walk, feed himself, or be potty trained. He did make up for those few years of early shortcomings. He was a little baby when he first used magic.'''

'''He was born a few hours after his brothers, he did not seem to want to come out naturally. He had to literally be cut out of his mother. His family often jokes that he does not share a birthday with his brother's, instead he gets wished a 'happy removal day' even his dad joined in calling him 'tumor baby', he did not appreciate this nickname. A few hours after he was finally born he moved a little blue bonnet, the one marked with the Q identifying him, to shade his eyes while he slept. To anyone watching it may have looked as if it slipped, perhaps it did. The midwife fixed it, only to notice it had slipped again, as she went to fix it once more she inexplicably tripped distracting everyone in the room with her near fall.'''

'''He feels his brothers show a significant appreciation for each other compared to their general dislike for him. He thinks they all think of him as weird, strange, crazy, psycho, freaky or annoying. Q, and his brothers don't always get along, there are too many of them. Some days he hates them all and wishes they would die. Some days he is thankful to have each and everyone of them. He likes to imagine what it would be like if their were more of them. Whatever the record is. Nine — set of nonuplets, he wishes he were nonuplets. His entire life would be that much worse, and that much better. He would have so many more friends, and so many more enemies. That would make his life a little more thrilling, in an excruciating sort of way. '''

'''Q follows to the beat of his own drum, despite being one of many, he does what he feels like he needs to do. He loves to be on his own, and when it comes to spending times with his brothers he would much rather be alone. He is exceptionally creative, Q is a talented artist, photographer, and chef. He is also a nerd for animals, fashion, technology, and architecture. Q is also claustrophobic, he has a strong preference for being outdoors, he can easily go stir-crazy. He feels uncomfortable when he is in an enclosed environment for extended periods of time. His brothers can be a benefit or a detriment in that sort of situation. They can either talk him down by distracting him, or what some of them usually do, try to make him pass-out or freak out. '''

3) Write about your character's appearance. What 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!



'''Q is classically handsome. He takes after his father, much like his brothers do, little clones of Alvin. He has some inherited features from his mother such as an infectious smile, and a shapely rounded nose. His mother's strong maternal genes are lost on the Graves boys, buried beneath the more striking paternal genetics. Q has stylishly messy, floppy, dark brown hair, and light grey eyes. He has fair skin, and a round shaped face. He likes to dress in casual, masculine muggle clothes. He is rather tall standing a little bit above the rest of his sibling set which make him appear to be borderline muscular, lean even. '''

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

5) Does your character have any special magical abilities? Or special abilities in general (photographic memory, etc.)?
