Forum:Jed Hamilton

 "Greater love hath no man than to lay his life for his brother" Talk 16:26, June 13, 2015 (UTC) NOTE:I'm planning on really starting Jed after I get back from my job. I think I'll have him go through Ollivander's though.

1) Give a 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.

Jasper Hamilton was simple Muggle man who met and married his High School sweetheart, Jessica Brown in Oakley, Kansas. After getting married Jasper bought his new wife a farm in small town called Whitewater. A year after getting married Jessica gave Jasper a son, Jed. A year later she bore him a daughter, Justine, two years after Justine was born, Jessica became pregnant once more. This time a baby girl named Kasey. Three years after Kasey's birth Jessica gave birth to a baby girl yet again, her name was Hannah. When Jed was 10 years old Jessica gave birth to a healthy baby girl named April.

Growing up Jed was a very hard-working young man, as him and his father mostly ran the farm, with the help of Justine, who was tom-boy. Jed went to school with his four sisters and when he heard tale of a boy who was bullying Justine he went to him, and being very big for his age intimidated the bully into stopping. No one messed with the Hamilton sisters after that, or they knew they would have to answer to Japser and Jed.\

Jed's first sign of magic came when he was 8 years old and some punk and decided to try and bully Justine again. Jed without touching him sent him flying back into a wall giving the boy a concussion. The people of Whitewater being a simple folk either claimed Jed was a witch or that it was an act of god. Most people liked Jed, so they thought it was an act of god.

Jed's letter came about two years later, after Justine and Kasey had their first signs of magic as well. The letter explained that he would have to attend the Salem Witch's Institute. At first Jed didn't want to leave, but his father told him to go, so he could learn to control his power. It took some convincing on the part of his whole family but he finally relented. Jed went to Salem come the fall.

While Jed was at Salem, he learned he had a gift for combat magic. He pulled O's in Defense Against the Dark Arts every year he attended, with the occasional O in Charms or Transfiguration. He pulled E's consistently in Herbology and Potions. When he went for advice on his career in his fifth year he was told with his grades in classes he could make an excellent Auror. This excited Jed as this was the type of job he would enjoy. He worked even harder in his NEWT classes, and his work paid off. He got an O in every single Auror Subject. When Jed graduated he went back to his father's farm for a period of time. Two years to be specific. But a lot happened in those two years.

When Jed returned home, his parents must have been excited. Because Jessica became pregnant again. Nine months later, the most tragic thing happened, Jessica was able to bring another life into the world... at the price of her own. Jasper was crushed. He didn't know what to do with his life anymore. Finally two years after his youngest daughter, Amy was born, Jasper passed away. No one was quite sure what happened, most people in Whitewater claimed it was from a broken heart. Anyways, Jed decided that Whitewater had too many bad memories and after conferring with Justine and Kasey who has just turned 17, they decided they would move. The question was where?. The three older siblings sat down with Hannah and April. Jed being a straight-forward kind of guy, plainly asked them where they would like to move. April being a nine year old girl exclaimed that she would like to move to England. Hannah agreed saying that would be cool. The three older siblings looked at each other and shrugged. They were moving to England!

The Hamiltons arrived in England on Wednesday, July 31, 2019. Upon arriving Jed, Justine and Kasey applied for jobs. Jed as an auror. He was accepted, and has been working as an auror ever since

2) Give a description of your character's personality. Personality must be at least one paragraph long. Are you noble or sneaky? Arrogant or humble?

Jed isn't arrogant. He's self-confident. There is a huge difference. He believes that what he is doing is right, and if someone else disagrees with him, he politely informs them of his opinion. He doesn't think he's smarter than the other person, he just think he's right. They could be right as well, though. Jed doesn't see the world as black and white. He sees a lot of gray area. That's partly why he became an auror. He wants something in his life to be clear cut.

Jed is very serious about his work. He knows how important it is, and works very hard every day. He loves his job because it's the one thing he sees as black and white. Jed is fighting for the good the wizarding world. The Dark Wizards he is trying to catch are fighting to harm the wizarding world. His job is to catch them and put them behind bars. It's as simple as that, and Jed loves his job for that exact reason.
